Localization is a crucial prerequisite for automated valet parking, in which a vehicle is required to navigate itself in a GPS-denied parking lot. Traditional visual localization methods usually build a feature map and use it for future localizations. However, the feature map is not robust to changes in illumination, appearance, and viewing perspective. To deal with this issue, we need a more stab...
