An attractive feature of deep-learned methods is their ability to cope with appearance changes caused by day\u2013night cycles and seasonal variations. However, deep learning of neural networks typically relies on large numbers of hand-annotated images, which requires significant effort for data collection and annotation. We present a method that allows autonomous, self-supervised training of a neural network in visual teach-and-repeat (VT&amp;R) tasks, where a mobile robot has to traverse a previously taught path repeatedly. Our method is based on a fusion of two image registration schemes: one based on a Siamese neural network and another on point-feature matching. As the robot traverses the taught paths, it uses the results of feature-based matching to train the neural network, which, in turn, provides coarse registration estimates to the feature matcher. We show that as the neural network gets trained, the accuracy and robustness of the navigation increases, making the robot capable of dealing with significant changes in the environment. This method can significantly reduce the data annotation efforts when designing new robotic systems or introducing robots into new environments. Moreover, the method provides annotated datasets that can be deployed in other navigation systems. To promote the reproducibility of the research presented herein, we provide our datasets, codes and trained models online.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s22082836","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,7]],"date-time":"2022-04-07T21:08:22Z","timestamp":1649365702000},"page":"2836","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Self-Supervised Robust Feature Matching Pipeline for Teach and Repeat Navigation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3598-1630","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tom\u00e1\u0161","family":"Rou\u010dek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8245-5559","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arash Sadeghi","family":"Amjadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1791-447X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zden\u011bk","family":"Rozsyp\u00e1lek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0071-5834","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"George","family":"Broughton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4900-1085","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jan","family":"Blaha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7464-3784","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Keerthy","family":"Kusumam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus, 7301 Wollaton Rd, Lenton, Nottingham NG8 1BB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4408-7916","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tom\u00e1\u0161","family":"Krajn\u00edk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Artificial Intelligence Center, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, 166 27 Prague 6, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"237","DOI":"10.1109\/34.982903","article-title":"Vision for mobile robot navigation: A survey","volume":"24","author":"DeSouza","year":"2002","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
