“…The descriptors obtained by the AKAZE's feature algorithm have rotation invariance, scale invariance, illumination invariance, space invariance, etc., and have high robustness, feature uniqueness, and feature accuracy. In view of the real-time requirements of the algorithm and the characteristics of rotation, scaling, and translation of the UAV operation images, this paper studies the UAV visual navigation (Cao et al, 2022 ; Guo et al, 2022 ; Qin et al, 2022 ; Zhao et al, 2022 ) algorithm based on the improved AKAZE algorithm, especially the precise hovering problem in UAV operation.…”
