BEV-SLD: Self-Supervised Scene Landmark Detection for Global Localization with LiDAR Bird's-Eye View Images

CVPR 2026

We present BEV-SLD, a LiDAR global localization method building on the Scene Landmark Detection (SLD) concept. Unlike scene-agnostic pipelines, our self-supervised approach leverages bird's-eye-view (BEV) images to discover scene-specific patterns at a prescribed spatial density and treat them as la

HI-SLAM2: Geometry-Aware Gaussian SLAM for Fast Monocular Scene Reconstruction

ICRA 2026poster

We present HI-SLAM2, a geometry-aware Gaussian SLAM system that achieves fast and accurate monocular scene reconstruction using only RGB input. Existing Neural SLAM or 3DGS-based SLAM methods often trade off between rendering quality and geometry accuracy, our research demonstrates that both can be …

DMSA - Dense Multi Scan Adjustment for LiDAR Inertial Odometry and Global Optimization

ICRA 2024poster

We propose a new method for fine registering multiple point clouds simultaneously. The approach is characterized by being dense, therefore point clouds are not reduced to pre-selected features in advance. Furthermore, the approach is robust against small overlaps and dynamic objects, since no direct…

HI-SLAM: Monocular Real-Time Dense Mapping With Hybrid Implicit Fields

RA-L 2024

In this letter, we present a neural field-based real-time monocular mapping framework for accurate and dense Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Recent neural mapping frameworks show promising results, but rely on RGB-D or pose inputs, or cannot run in real-time. To address these limitatio

BAMF-SLAM: Bundle Adjusted Multi-Fisheye Visual-Inertial SLAM Using Recurrent Field Transforms

ICRA 2023poster

In this paper, we present BAMF-SLAM, a novel multi-fisheye visual-inertial SLAM system that utilizes Bundle Adjustment (BA) and recurrent field transforms (RFT) to achieve accurate and robust state estimation in challenging scenarios. First, our system directly operates on raw fisheye images, enabli…
