• Abstract: We present COMO, a real-time monocular mapping and odometry system that encodes dense geometry via a compact set of 3D anchor points. Decoding anchor point projections into dense geometry via per-keyframe depth covariance functions guarantees that depth maps are joined together at visible anchor points. The representation enables joint optimization of camera poses and dense geometry, intrinsic 3D consistency, and efficient second-order inference. To maintain a compact yet expressive map, we introduce a frontend that leverages the covariance function for tracking and initializing potentially visually indistinct 3D points across frames. Altogether, we introduce a real-time system capable of estimating accurate poses and consistent geometry.

  We introduce GeoGS3D, a framework for reconstructing detailed 3D objects from single-view images. We propose a novel metric, Gaussian Divergence Significance (GDS), to prune unnecessary operations during optimization. Experiments demonstrate that GeoGS3D generates images with high consistency across views and reconstructs high-quality 3D objects.

  Learnable matchers often underperform when there exists only small regions of co-visibility between image pairs. We propose LFM-3D, a Learnable Feature Matching framework that uses models based on graph neural networks. We show that the resulting improved correspondences lead to much higher relative posing accuracy for in-the-wild image pairs.

  We present an approach for aggregating a sparse set of views of an object in order to compute a semi-implicit 3D representation in the form of a volumetric feature grid. Key to our approach is an object-centric canonical 3D coordinate system into which views can be lifted, without explicit camera pose estimation. We show that computing a symmetry-aware mapping from pixels to the canonical coordinate system allows us to better propagate information to unseen regions.
