Pose optimization for autonomous driving datasets using neural rendering models

arXiv 2025

Pose Optimization Benchmark

  • The evaluation is done with the poses from different pose optimization methods.
  • The evaluation metrics are from 3 categories to avoid any bias.
  • Novel View Synthesis: Nerfacto with LiDAR depth maps and Splatfacto with SfM+LiDAR initialization.
  • Structure-from-Motion: COLMAP reprojection error and track length.
  • Geometric consistency: Precision with the percentage of LiDAR points under 15cm of distance with the Delauney mesh, and average distance.
  • The results for each dataset are the average values over 5 selected sequences.
