XM4D is a new framework for accurate 4D reconstruction that separates camera motion estimation from non‑rigid deformation. Both stages are cast as structured quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs) with semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations, enabling certifiable global optimality. The method uses GPU‑accelerated Burer‑Monteiro solvers, initializes dynamic Gaussian splatting for refinement, and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on seven benchmarks.

Kineo is a fully automatic, calibration‑free pipeline that performs markerless motion capture using unsynchronized, uncalibrated consumer‑grade RGB cameras. It uses 2D keypoints from existing detectors to jointly calibrate cameras (including distortion), reconstruct 3D keypoints, and generate dense scene pointmaps at metric scale. The method introduces confidence‑aware subsampling, graph‑based optimization, and a pairwise reprojection consistency score to achieve robust calibration and accurate metric scale recovery, achieving significant error reductions on EgoHumans and Human3.6M datasets while remaining computationally efficient.
The paper introduces PointVGGT, a zero‑shot framework for multiview RGB‑D point cloud registration that avoids pairwise estimation by using a foundation‑then‑refinement paradigm. In the foundation stage, it recovers metrically consistent global poses by grounding scale‑ambiguous predictions from visual geometry foundation models against metric depth. The refinement stage employs voxelized spatial hashing and IRLS‑based bundle adjustment to efficiently refine poses, achieving high accuracy and computational efficiency across indoor, object‑centric, and outdoor datasets.
The paper introduces PointVGGT, a zero‑shot framework for multiview RGB‑D point cloud registration that replaces the traditional pairwise‑then‑global pipeline. It employs a foundation‑then‑refinement paradigm, using visual geometry foundation models to directly recover metrically consistent global poses and then refining them with voxelized spatial hashing and IRLS‑based bundle adjustment. Experiments on indoor, object‑centric, and outdoor datasets demonstrate superior registration accuracy and computational efficiency without any training.
