Ego-motion estimation is a key requirement for the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem. The traditional pipeline goes through feature extraction, feature matching and pose estimation, whose performance depends on the manually designed features. In this paper, we are motivated by the strong performance of deep learning methods in other computer vision and robotics tasks. We replace...
