IUP-Pose: Decoupled Iterative Uncertainty Propagation for Real-time Relative Pose Regression via Implicit Dense Alignment v1
Relative pose estimation is fundamental for SLAM, visual localization, and 3D reconstruction. Existing Relative Pose Regression (RPR) methods face a key trade-off: feature-matching pipelines achieve high accuracy but block gradient flow via non-differentiable RANSAC, while ViT-based regressors are end-to-end trainable but prohibitively expensive for real-time deployment. We identify the core bottlenecks as the coupling between rotation and translation estimation and insufficient cross-view feature alignment. We propose IUP-Pose, a geometry-driven decoupled iterative framework with implicit dense alignment. A lightweight Multi-Head Bi-Cross Attention (MHBC) module aligns cross-view feature...
