Converse and Collision-Based Achievability for Node Localization with Hybrid Distance-Spectral Graph Positional Encodings

Graph positional encodings are widely used in graph neural networks and graph Transformers, yet it remains unclear when the code itself can identify nodes. We study a hybrid distance-spectral encoding that combines anchor-distance profiles with quantized low-frequency Laplacian-energy coordinates. Treating the encoding as an observation map yields a simplex-refined converse, an exact collision factorization \(\kappa_H=\kappa_D\kappa_{S|D}\), and the collision information \(I_H=-\log\kappa_D-\log\kappa_{S|D}\). On random regular graphs, the criterion is made explicit through a bounded-correlation Gaussian-wave surrogate; for actual Laplacian-energy coordinates, we give the distance-conditioned spectral collision condition sufficient for conditional actual-coordinate achievability. Experiments show that \(I_H/\log n\) calibrates localization success, and PE-only structural task probes on Universal Dependencies trees show that hybrid encodings better recover syntactic-tree geometry than distance-only or spectral-only baselines.

EMA-VIO: Deep Visual-Inertial Odometry with External Memory Attention

Accurate and robust localization is a fundamental need for mobile agents. Visual-inertial odometry (VIO) algorithms exploit the information from camera and inertial sensors to estimate position and translation. Recent deep learning based VIO models attract attentions as they provide pose information in a data-driven way, without the need of designing hand-crafted algorithms. Existing learning based VIO models rely on recurrent models to fuse multimodal data and process sensor signal, which are hard to train and not efficient enough. We propose a novel learning based VIO framework with external memory attention that effectively and efficiently combines visual and inertial features for states estimation. Our proposed model is able to estimate pose accurately and robustly, even in challenging scenarios, e.g., on overcast days and water-filled ground , which are difficult for traditional VIO algorithms to extract visual features. Experiments validate that it outperforms both traditional and learning based VIO baselines in different scenes.
