Affine-Aligned Atlas for Canonical Gaussian Construction in Video Representation

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces an affine‑aligned atlas for constructing canonical Gaussian representations in video. By applying frame‑wise affine transforms to absorb global motion before building the canonical Gaussians, the method reduces misalignment between the canonical model and individual frames. This modification can be added to existing Gaussian‑based video representations with minimal extra parameters and improves reconstruction quality, particularly for sequences with large camera motion.

GeoBlur: Epipolar Geometry Estimation from a Single Motion-Blurred Image

GeoBlur is a framework that estimates the fundamental matrix and relative camera pose from a single motion‑blurred image by exploiting blur artifacts as motion cues. It predicts visual correspondences between two time instances within the exposure window and solves the single‑frame epipolar geometry problem, yielding a fundamental matrix unique up to transposition due to time‑direction ambiguity. The method shows improved performance on synthetic and hybrid benchmarks and remains competitive on real motion‑blur data, also enabling downstream single‑frame motion segmentation.

OC-GS: Gaussian Splatting for Irregular Turntable Capture

OC-GS introduces an object‑centric Gaussian splatting method that refines the angle of each image while keeping a shared camera, rotation axis, and pivot for turntable reconstruction. By jointly optimizing image‑derived geometry and angles, it reconstructs objects from sparse, irregular captures and outperforms four pose‑free Gaussian splatting baselines across various view counts. Ablation studies confirm that both image‑derived angle initialization and the shared motion model are essential for the observed improvements, with real captures showing a 0.70 dB PSNR gain.

VGGT-GS SLAM: Uncalibrated Monocular Gaussian Splatting SLAM with Feed-Forward Priors

VGGT-GS SLAM is a monocular 3D Gaussian Splatting SLAM system that operates on uncalibrated videos. It uses feed‑forward VGGT pose and depth priors to perform submap differentiable bundle adjustment, jointly refining camera poses, a 3D Gaussian map, and submap‑shared intrinsics and distortion parameters via analytic calibration Jacobians. The method introduces Gaussian‑native alignment for camera‑anchored scale refinement between submaps and loop‑closure verification, achieving improved localization accuracy and rendering quality on standard indoor benchmarks.
