Before revision:  We propose a self-supervised method for incrementally refining visual descriptors to improve performance in the task of object-level visual data association.
After revision: Object-level data association is central to robotic applications such as tracking-by-detection and object-level simultaneous localization and mapping. While current learned visual data association methods outperform hand-crafted algorithms, many rely on large collections of domain-specific training examples that can be difficult to obtain without prior knowledge. Additionally, such methods often remain fixed during inference-time and do not harness observed information to better their performance. We propose a self-supervised method for incrementally refining visual descriptors to improve performance in the task of object-level visual data association.
