GALoc: Gravity Aligned Wireframes for Depth-Free Monocular Floorplan Localization

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

GALoc is a geometry-first approach for indoor localization that replaces depth prediction with gravity-aligned wireframes, ensuring verticality and coplanarity by construction. Using monocular RGB, camera intrinsics, relative poses, and IMU orientation, it builds a linear constraint matrix and finds the camera gauge that minimizes its smallest singular value through a global search. The resulting wireframes are projected into bird’s-eye-view layouts and matched against floorplans via a metric-free SE(2) search, achieving up to 88% sequential localization success on Gibson datasets and outperforming depth-based baselines when sufficient wall geometry is visible.

DXPR: Depth-Based Vision-LiDAR Cross-Modal Place Recognition Using Vision Foundation Models

DXPR is a depth‑based cross‑modal place recognition framework that matches monocular camera queries to a LiDAR map using a single vision foundation model backbone. By converting both modalities into a unified depth image representation, DXPR learns modality‑invariant global descriptors without modality‑specific encoders. A geometry‑aware overlap miner refines pairwise metric learning by computing pixel‑level overlap scores, and extensive tests on KITTI and Boreas show strong performance across seasons, weather, and day/night conditions, outperforming prior CMPR baselines.
