Abstract: Place recognition is one of the main challenges in localization, mapping and navigation tasks of self-driving vehicles under various perceptual conditions, including appearance and viewpoint variations. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive study on the utility of fine-tuned Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) with three MAC, SpoC and GeM pooling layers to learn global image representation for place recognition in an end-to-end manner using three different sensor data modalities: (1) only RGB images; (2) only intensity or only depth 3D LiDAR point clouds projected into 2D images and (3) early fusion of RGB images and LiDAR point clouds (both intensity and depth) to form a unified global descriptor to leverage robust features of both modalities. The experimental results on a diverse and large long-term Oxford Radar RobotCar dataset illustrate an achievement of 5 m outdoor place recognition accuracy with high recall rate of 90 % using early fusion of RGB and LiDAR sensor data modalities when fine-tuned network with GeM pooling layer is utilized.
