PoseNet

This is a modified version of Caffe which supports the PoseNet architecture

As described in the ICCV 2015 paper PoseNet: A Convolutional Network for Real-Time 6-DOF Camera Relocalization Alex Kendall, Matthew Grimes and Roberto Cipolla [http://mi.eng.cam.ac.uk/projects/relocalisation/]

Getting Started

• Download the Cambridge Landmarks dataset from here.
• Download models and trained weights from here.

Create an LMDB localisation dataset with caffe-posenet/posenet/scripts/create_posenet_lmdb_dataset.py Change lines 1, 11 & 12 to the appropriate directories.

Test PoseNet with caffe-posenet/posenet/scripts/test_posenet.py using the command python test_posenet.py --model your_model.prototxt --weights your_weights.caffemodel --iter size_of_dataset
