Of all my multiple Lufthansa flights on this journey, the only one that was punctual was the one with a short connection time, and that I therefore missed due to the previous one being late.
Now, after one involuntary overnight stay: delay again. Great job @lufthansagroup.bsky.social

‼️ Major update to the #ACEZero code base. We added the capabilities of the #ICCV2025 paper on Scene Coordinate Reconstruction Priors.
Gives you, e.g., a RGB-D version of ACE0. In the snipped below, I jointly reconstruct multiple RGB-D scans of ScanNet.

Hi everyone. Can we please stop naming methods in leetspeak? It slows down my writing - it is a skill I happily abandoned 20 years ago.

After next week, I REALLY need a break from PowerPoint.
Looking forward to a busy #ICCV2025.
I will give three (very different) talks at workshops and tutorials, see info below.
We also present two papers, ACE-G and SCR Priors.
And it's the 10th (!) anniversary of the R6D workshop, which we co-organize.

Bruns et al., "ACE-G: Improving Generalization of Scene Coordinate Regression Through Query Pre-Training"
Train a scene coordinate regressor with "map codes" (ie, trainable inputs) so that you can train one generalizable regressor. Then, find these "map codes" to localize.

We disentangle coordinate regression and latent map representation which lets us pre-train the regressor to generalize from mapping data to difficult query images.

Barroso-Laguna et al., "A Scene is Worth a Thousand Features: Feed-Forward Camera Localization from a Collection of Image Features"
When contexting your feed-forward 3D point-map estimator, don't use full image pairs -- just randomly subsample! -> fast compute, more images.
