QuacamFM: quaternion-constrained flow matching for camera pose estimation

zhenjun_zhao · x · 2026-09-30

A new paper, QuacamFM, applies quaternion-constrained flow matching to camera pose estimation by Bao-Long Tran, Cuong Le, T Hedavirad, Fredrik Viksten, and Per-Erik Forssén.

The core idea: perform optimal transport of quaternion flows using smooth spherical linear interpolation (slerp) to enforce the unit-quaternion constraint, adapting flow matching to the manifold structure of rotations.
