Ex-Sim(3)-Reg: 2D-3D Correspondence Pruning via Extended Sim(3) Registration

Learning-based image-to-point-cloud (I2P) registration has garnered increasing attention in recent years. Nevertheless, existing methods still struggle with severe outliers under challenging scenarios with unseen, low-inlier, or distorted cases. A fast and robust 2D-3D correspondence pruning method is therefore highly desirable. Recently, a promising scheme lifts 2D-3D correspondences to 3D-3D correspondences using depth priors, casting correspondence pruning as a Sim(3) registration problem. However, depth priors estimated from monocular images are inherently noisy, which undermines the reliability of this scheme. In this paper, to explicitly model non-negligible depth noise, we reformulate correspondence pruning as an extended Sim(3) registration problem and propose a simple yet effective pruning algorithm termed Ex-Sim(3)-Reg. We further provide a theoretical analysis to justify the effectiveness of our method. Extensive experiments on the 7-Scenes, RGBD-V2, ScanNet, and TUM datasets demonstrate that Ex-Sim(3)-Reg achieves up to \textbf{24.7\% improvement} in registration recall over state-of-the-art baseline methods.

MV-Actor: Aligning Multi-View Semantics and Spatial Awareness for Bimanual Manipulation

Robotic manipulation has been widely applied in industrial scenarios. Compared with single-arm manipulation, bimanual manipulation is equipped with multiple cameras to capture information from different viewpoints. However, existing multi-view policies encode each view independently or fuse view features shallowly, resulting in limited sharing semantic perception and unreliable spatial awareness. In this paper, we propose \textbf{MV-Actor}, a multi-view perception framework that builds a unified semantic-spatial representation for bimanual manipulation. First, MV-Actor performs Multi-view Semantic Interaction to share semantic perception across views. Then it uses Semantic-Spatial Token Interaction to ground visual semantics with feed-forward reconstruction model features and acquire reliable spatial awareness. Finally, a Guided Metric Depth Repair module refines degraded sensor depth to provide more reliable metric anchors under consumer-grade depth noise. In simulation experiments conducted on the PerAct2 bimanual benchmark, MV-Actor achieves a state-of-the-art average success rate of 87.8\%. In real-world evaluations with more frequent viewpoint changes and unstable consumer-grade depth, MV-Actor outperforms both RGB and RGB-D baselines, further demonstrating the benefit of sharing semantic perception and reliable spatial awareness for bimanual manipulation.

Angle-I2P: Angle-Consistent-Aware Hierarchical Attention for Cross-Modality Outlier Rejection

Image-to-point-cloud registration (I2P) is a fundamental task in robotic applications such as manipulation,grasping, and localization. Existing deep learning-based I2P methods seek to align image and point cloud features in a learned representation space to establish correspondences, and have achieved promising results. However, when the inlier ratio of the initial matching pairs is low, conventional Perspective-n-Points (PnP) methods may struggle to achieve accurate results. To address this limitation, we propose Angle-I2P, an outlier rejection network that leverages angle-consistent geometric constraints and hierarchical attention. First, we design a scale-invariant, crossmodality geometric constraint based on angular consistency. This explicit geometric constraint guides the model in distinguishing inliers from outliers. Furthermore, we propose a global-tolocal hierarchical attention mechanism that effectively filters out geometrically inconsistent matches under rigid transformation, thereby improving the Inlier Ratio (IR) and Registration Recall (RR). Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the 7Scenes, RGBD Scenes V2, and a self-collected dataset, with consistent improvements across all benchmarks.

Dynamic Graph Neural Network with Adaptive Features Selection for RGB-D Based Indoor Scene Recognition

Multi-modality of color and depth, i.e., RGB-D, is of great importance in recent research of indoor scene recognition. In this kind of data representation, depth map is able to describe the 3D structure of scenes and geometric relations among objects. Previous works showed that local features of both modalities are vital for promotion of recognition accuracy. However, the problem of adaptive selection and effective exploitation on these key local features remains open in this field. In this paper, a dynamic graph model is proposed with adaptive node selection mechanism to solve the above problem. In this model, a dynamic graph is built up to model the relations among objects and scene, and a method of adaptive node selection is proposed to take key local features from both modalities of RGB and depth for graph modeling. After that, these nodes are grouped by three different levels, representing near or far relations among objects. Moreover, the graph model is updated dynamically according to attention weights. Finally, the updated and optimized features of RGB and depth modalities are fused together for indoor scene recognition. Experiments are performed on public datasets including SUN RGB-D and NYU Depth v2. Extensive results demonstrate that our method has superior performance when comparing to state-of-the-arts methods, and show that the proposed method is able to exploit crucial local features from both modalities of RGB and depth.

MinCD-PnP: Learning 2D-3D Correspondences with Approximate Blind PnP

Image-to-point-cloud (I2P) registration is a fundamental problem in computer vision, focusing on establishing 2D-3D correspondences between an image and a point cloud. The differential perspective-n-point (PnP) has been widely used to supervise I2P registration networks by enforcing the projective constraints on 2D-3D correspondences. However, differential PnP is highly sensitive to noise and outliers in the predicted correspondences. This issue hinders the effectiveness of correspondence learning. Inspired by the robustness of blind PnP against noise and outliers in correspondences, we propose an approximated blind PnP based correspondence learning approach. To mitigate the high computational cost of blind PnP, we simplify blind PnP to an amenable task of minimizing Chamfer distance between learned 2D and 3D keypoints, called MinCD-PnP. To effectively solve MinCD-PnP, we design a lightweight multi-task learning module, named as MinCD-Net, which can be easily integrated into the existing I2P registration architectures. Extensive experiments on 7-Scenes, RGBD-V2, ScanNet, and self-collected datasets demonstrate that MinCD-Net outperforms state-of-the-art methods and achieves a higher inlier ratio (IR) and registration recall (RR) in both cross-scene and cross-dataset settings.

TFCT-I2P: Three stream fusion network with color aware transformer for image-to-point cloud registration

Along with the advancements in artificial intelligence technologies, image-to-point-cloud registration (I2P) techniques have made significant strides. Nevertheless, the dimensional differences in the features of points cloud (three-dimension) and image (two-dimension) continue to pose considerable challenges to their development. The primary challenge resides in the inability to leverage the features of one modality to augment those of another, thereby complicating the alignment of features within the latent space. To address this challenge, we propose an image-to-point-cloud method named as TFCT-I2P. Initially, we introduce a Three-Stream Fusion Network (TFN), which integrates color information from images with structural information from point clouds, facilitating the alignment of features from both modalities. Subsequently, to effectively mitigate patch-level misalignments introduced by the inclusion of color information, we design a Color-Aware Transformer (CAT). Finally, we conduct extensive experiments on 7Scenes, RGB-D Scenes V2, ScanNet V2, and a self-collected dataset. The results demonstrate that TFCT-I2P surpasses state-of-the-art methods by 1.5% in Inlier Ratio, 0.4% in Feature Matching Recall, and 5.4% in Registration Recall. Therefore, we believe that the proposed TFCT-I2P contributes to the advancement of I2P registration.
