• Abstract: We present FLARE, a feed-forward model designed to infer high-quality camera poses and 3D geometry from uncalibrated sparse-view images (i.e., as few as 2-8 inputs), which is a challenging yet practical setting in real-world applications. Our solution features a cascaded learning paradigm with camera pose serving as the critical bridge, recognizing its essential role in mapping 3D structures onto 2D image planes. Concretely, FLARE starts with camera pose estimation, whose results condition the subsequent learning of geometric structure and appearance, optimized through the objectives of geometry reconstruction and novel-view synthesis. Utilizing large-scale public datasets for training, our method delivers state-of-the-art performance in the tasks of pose estimation, geometry reconstruction, and novel view synthesis, while maintaining the inference efficiency (i.e., less than 0.5 seconds).

  This work explores reconstructing general real-world objects from a few images without known camera poses or object categories.

Our method FORGE predicts 3D features from each view and leverages them in conjunction with the input images to establish cross-view correspondence.

  We present a solution to recover 3D pose from multi-view images captured with spatially calibrated cameras.

Our architecture then conditions the learned representation on camera projection operators to produce accurate per-view 2d detections.
