We propose a kernelized deep local-patch descriptor based on efficient match kernels of neural network activations. Response of each receptive field is encoded together with its spatial location using explicit feature maps. Two location parametrizations, Cartesian and polar, are used to provide robustness to a different types of canonical patch misalignment. Additionally, we analyze how the conventional architecture, i.e. a fully connected layer attached after the convolutional part, encodes responses in a spatially variant way. In contrary, explicit spatial encoding is used in our descriptor, whose potential applications are not limited to local-patches. We evaluate the descriptor on standard benchmarks. Bo
