Vector of locally aggregated descriptor (VLAD) is a popular image encoding approach for its simplicity and better scalability over conventional bag-of-visual-word approach. In order to enhance its distinctiveness and geometric invariance, covariant VLAD (CVLAD) is proposed to pool local features bas...
