Publications

SLAM&Render: A Benchmark for the Intersection Between Neural Rendering, Gaussian Splatting and SLAM

Submitted to RA-L, 2025 New

A novel dataset designed to benchmark methods in the intersection between SLAM and novel view rendering. It consists of 40 sequences with synchronized RGB, depth, IMU, robot kinematic data, and ground-truth pose streams

GNSS-inertial state initialization by distance residuals

GNSS-inertial state initialization by distance residuals

Submitted to RA-L, 2025 New

A novel GNSS-inertial initialization strategy that delays the use of global GNSS measurements until sufficient information is available to accurately estimate the state of a sensorized device. To determine the optimal moment for switching from relative to global measurements, we introduce a criterion based on the evolution of the Hessian matrix singular values

Camera Motion Estimation from RGB-D-inertial Scene Flow

Camera Motion Estimation from RGB-D-inertial Scene Flow

CVPR Workshop, 2024

Estimate the camera motion in a rigid 3D environment, along with the state of an IMU while offering the flexibility to operate as a multiframe optimization or to marginalize older data
