The pursuit of high-fidelity 3D representations from sparse images has seen considerable advancements, yet the challenge of accurately determining camera poses remains a significant hurdle. Traditional structure-from-motion methods often falter when faced with limited views, prompting a shift towards learning-based strategies that aim to predict camera poses from a sparse image set. These innovative approaches…
Estimating your chances of winning the lottery with sampling Statistical estimates can be fascinating, can’t they? By just sampling a few instances from a population, you can infer properties of that population such as the mean value or the variance. Likewise, under the right circumstances, it is possible to estimate the total size of the…
