3D reconstruction has been developing all these two decades, from moderate to medium size and to large scale. It's well known that bundle adjustment plays an important role in 3D reconstruction, mainly in Structure from Motion(SfM) and…

Motivated by the advances in 3D sensing technology and the spreading of low-cost robotic platforms, 3D object reconstruction has become a common task in many areas. Nevertheless, the selection of the optimal sensor pose that maximizes the…

In this paper, we study the problem of zero-shot sim-to-real when the task requires both highly precise control with sub-millimetre error tolerance, and wide task space generalisation. Our framework involves a coarse-to-fine controller,…

Image editing and compositing have become ubiquitous in entertainment, from digital art to AR and VR experiences. To produce beautiful composites, the camera needs to be geometrically calibrated, which can be tedious and requires a physical…

Learning to segment images purely by relying on the image-text alignment from web data can lead to sub-optimal performance due to noise in the data. The noise comes from the samples where the associated text does not correlate with the…

Zero-shot 3D object classification is crucial for real-world applications like autonomous driving, however it is often hindered by a significant domain gap between the synthetic data used for training and the sparse, noisy LiDAR scans…

Image matching, which establishes correspondences between two-view images to recover 3D structure and camera geometry, serves as a cornerstone in computer vision and underpins a wide range of applications, including visual localization, 3D…

We present SyNoRiM, a novel way to jointly register multiple non-rigid shapes by synchronizing the maps relating learned functions defined on the point clouds. Even though the ability to process non-rigid shapes is critical in various…

The joint optimization of the sensor trajectory and 3D map is a crucial characteristic of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems. To achieve this, the gold standard is Bundle Adjustment (BA). Modern 3D LiDARs now retain higher…

Camera localization aims to estimate 6 DoF camera poses from RGB images. Traditional methods detect and match interest points between a query image and a pre-built 3D model. Recent learning-based approaches encode scene structures into a…

Maps are a key component in image-based camera localization and visual SLAM systems: they are used to establish geometric constraints between images, correct drift in relative pose estimation, and relocalize cameras after lost tracking. The…

Multi-beam LiDAR sensors, as used on autonomous vehicles and mobile robots, acquire sequences of 3D range scans ("frames"). Each frame covers the scene sparsely, due to limited angular scanning resolution and occlusion. The sparsity…

Constructing precise global maps is a key task in robotics and is required for localization, surveying, monitoring, or constructing digital twins. To build accurate maps, data from mobile 3D LiDAR sensors is often used. Mapping requires…

Robotic manipulation with deformable objects represents a data-intensive regime in embodied learning, where shape, contact, and topology co-evolve in ways that far exceed the variability of rigids. Although simulation promises relief from…
