Abstract:While structure-based relocalizers have long strived for point correspondences when establishing or regressing query-map associations, in this paper, we pioneer the use of planar primitives and 3D planar maps for lightweight 6-DoF camera relocalization in structured environments. Planar primitives, beyond being fundamental entities in projective geometry, also serve as region-based representations that encapsulate both structural and semantic richness. This motivates us to introduce PlanaReLoc, a streamlined plane-centric paradigm where a deep matcher associates planar primitives across the query image and the map within a learned unified embedding space, after which the 6-DoF pose is solved and refined under a robust framework. Through comprehensive experiments on the ScanNet and 12Scenes datasets across hundreds of scenes, our method demonstrates the superiority of planar primitives in facilitating reliable cross-modal structural correspondences and achieving effective camera relocalization without requiring realistically textured/colored maps, pose priors, or per-scene training.

Abstract:Reconstructing geometry and topology structures from raw unstructured data has always been an important research topic in indoor mapping research. In this paper, we aim to reconstruct the floorplan with a vectorized representation from point clouds. Despite significant advancements achieved in recent years, current methods still encounter several challenges, such as missing corners or edges, inaccuracies in corner positions or angles, self-intersecting or overlapping polygons, and potentially implausible topology. To tackle these challenges, we present PolyRoom, a room-aware Transformer that leverages uniform sampling representation, room-aware query initialization, and room-aware self-attention for floorplan reconstruction. Specifically, we adopt a uniform sampling floorplan representation to enable dense supervision during training and effective utilization of angle information. Additionally, we propose a room-aware query initialization scheme to prevent non-polygonal sequences and introduce room-aware self-attention to enhance memory efficiency and model performance. Experimental results on two widely used datasets demonstrate that PolyRoom surpasses current state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.
