• Abstract summary: We propose a novel LiDAR-camera calibration method, which requires zero extra training and adapts to common scenes. The consistency includes three properties of the point cloud: the intensity, normal vector and categories. Experiments on different dataset have demonstrated the generality and comparable accuracy of our method.

• Abstract: The research on extrinsic calibration between Light Detection and Ranging(LiDAR) and camera are being promoted to a more accurate, automatic and generic manner. Since deep learning has been employed in calibration, the restrictions on the scene are greatly reduced. However, data driven method has the drawback of low transfer-ability. It cannot adapt to dataset variations unless additional training is taken. With the advent of foundation model, this problem can be significantly mitigated. By using the Segment Anything Model(SAM), we propose a novel LiDAR-camera calibration method, which requires zero extra training and adapts to common scenes. With an initial guess, we opimize the extrinsic parameter by maximizing the consistency of points that are projected inside each image mask. The consistency includes three properties of the point cloud: the intensity, normal vector and categories derived from some segmentation methods. The experiments on different dataset have demonstrated the generality and comparable accuracy of our method. The code is available at https://github.com/OpenCalib/CalibAnything.

• Class-wise and reduced calibration methods [0.0]
  We show how a reduced calibration method transforms the original problem into a simpler one. Second, we propose class-wise calibration methods, based on building on a phenomenon called neural collapse. Applying the two methods together results in class-wise reduced calibration algorithms, which are powerful tools for reducing the prediction and per-class calibration errors.
