Initialization-Free Bundle Adjustment Revisited: A Controlled Study

ssh4net · x · 2026-08-19

This paper by Simon Weber et al. revisits Initialization-Free Bundle Adjustment (InitFree BA) through a controlled experimental study. InitFree BA aims to recover camera poses and scene structure directly from observations, skipping geometric initialization. While recent methods show promise, it's unclear if low objective values yield valid metric 3D reconstructions. The authors provide a unified evaluation framework with a C++ implementation to investigate this.
