VLM-Loc: Localization in Point Cloud Maps via Vision-Language Models

CVPR 2026

Text-to-point-cloud (T2P) localization aims to infer precise spatial positions within 3D point cloud maps from natural language descriptions, reflecting how humans perceive and communicate spatial layouts through language. However, existing methods largely rely on shallow text-point cloud correspond

OPAL: Visibility-aware LiDAR-to-OpenStreetMap Place Recognition via Adaptive Radial Fusion

CoRL 2025poster

LiDAR place recognition is a critical capability for autonomous navigation and cross-modal localization in large-scale outdoor environments. Existing approaches predominantly depend on pre-built 3D dense maps or aerial imagery, which impose significant storage overhead and lack real-time adaptabilit…

CoFiI2P: Coarse-to-Fine Correspondences-Based Image to Point Cloud Registration

RA-L 2024

Image-to-point cloud (I2P) registration is a fundamental task for robots and autonomous vehicles to achieve cross-modality data fusion and localization. Current I2P registration methods primarily focus on estimating correspondences at the point or pixel level, often neglecting global alignment. As a

Mobile-Seed: Joint Semantic Segmentation and Boundary Detection for Mobile Robots

RA-L 2024

Precise and rapid delineation of sharp boundaries and robust semantics is essential for numerous downstream robotic tasks, such as robot grasping and manipulation, real-time semantic mapping, and online sensor calibration performed on edge computing units. Although boundary detection and semantic se
