KAD-Net introduces a Kinematics-Aware Decoupled Learning Network for 3D hand pose estimation from a single depth image. It employs a Finger Topology Constraint module that uses local kinematic representations of three consecutive finger joints to better model distal joint relationships and handle occlusion. The architecture also decouples 2D joint localization from depth estimation in a hierarchical multitask framework, reducing feature interference and improving accuracy on benchmark datasets such as ICVL, NYU, and MSRA.

MINT is a foundation model that directly predicts world-space two-hand trajectories from egocentric RGB video, jointly estimating camera motion, hand states, and hand presence in a single spatiotemporal representation. It uses an open-source labeling pipeline, EGOPIPELINE, to generate large-scale pseudo-labels for pretraining, followed by fine-tuning on a small set of high-quality joint annotations. The model outperforms existing multi-stage approaches in accuracy and speed, and generalizes zero‑shot to unseen egocentric datasets.

MEgoVista is an offline pipeline that converts a single unprepared egocentric video into metric two‑hand and head motion within a gravity‑aligned world frame. It uniquely reconstructs motion in environments beyond studio volumes, uses calibrated stereo for absolute scale, and evaluates its outputs against independent optical capture to audit accuracy. The system thus expands the settings where high‑fidelity hand‑motion labels can be generated from natural, head‑worn recordings.
The paper introduces CalfVO, a monocular visual odometry system that operates without camera intrinsics, test‑time optimization, bundle adjustment, or loop closure. Using a transformer, it predicts relative poses with separate rotation and translation confidences over overlapping image windows, then aggregates these predictions via a confidence‑weighted module to produce a single trajectory. CalfVO achieves the highest accuracy among calibration‑free methods across five benchmarks and runs at 53 FPS, outperforming all baselines.
VI3 is a model‑agnostic framework that grounds pretrained 3D foundation models (3DFMs) by using inertial measurement unit (IMU) data to provide metric scale. It initializes and preintegrates IMU readings to create a metric motion reference, which is then used to recover the scale of 3DFM outputs. The approach includes adaptable anchoring strategies for different 3DFM architectures and demonstrates scale recovery on synthetic and real aerial datasets without ground‑truth supervision.
Accurate monocular 4D hand reconstruction remains challenging. Per-frame discriminative regressors lack temporal context and often produce jittery predictions.
