Monocular Visual Odometry without Calibration or Test-time Optimization

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.

VideoReloc: Long-Term Indoor Video Relocalization against a Kilobyte-Scale Semantic Scene Graph

VideoReloc presents a method for long‑term indoor video relocalization that relies on a compact semantic scene graph rather than visual appearance. By adaptively selecting clip lengths based on odometry and object‑motion criteria, the system gathers spatial evidence, verifies poses through object triplets, and refines orientation using box faces and gravity cues. This approach achieves high localization accuracy with a tiny 100 kB map, outperforming traditional appearance‑based methods on RIO10 and ReplicaCAD datasets.

DAPEVO: Deep Adaptive Patch Frame-Event Visual Odometry

DAPEVO is a learned visual odometry system that independently estimates image and event correspondences at shared patch locations and fuses their correlation evidence before motion refinement. It maintains image and event descriptors for each tracked patch, using a learned scalar gate to combine modality-specific correlation embeddings for each patch–frame edge, followed by a shared recurrent refinement and bundle‑adjustment update. The method supports event‑only observations and modality‑aware keyframe culling, achieving low trajectory error even when RGB frames are sparse or degraded, outperforming DPVO, RAMP‑VO, and event‑only DEVO on UZH‑FPV and TartanEvent datasets.

Beyond Visual Quality: Evaluating Physical Consistency under Ego-Motion with EgoGenEval

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a new benchmark that assesses the physical consistency of visual generators under ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. Experiments on 16 pose‑free generators and two pose‑conditioned references show that current models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state simultaneously. A follow‑up study using EgoGen‑Train demonstrates that pairwise supervision does not effectively improve both metrics together, suggesting the need for a trajectory‑centric training paradigm.
