What a nice morning to find that Alzugaray, Taher @marwantaher.bsky.social , Davison @ajdavison.bsky.social have turned ACE into a SLAM system. Since we did ACE, I was wondering whether it was possible, and I always thought who if not those folks can pull it off. 🙂

🔥 ACE-G, the next evolutionary step of ACE at #ICCV2025 🔥
We disentangle coordinate regression and latent map representation which lets us pre-train the regressor to generalize from mapping data to difficult query images.

Yes exactly if you are dealing with unordered image collections. The same certainly cannot be said when dealing with videos where the displacement between two frames makes more sense.
Wrt to RoPE: People are applying it wrongly for multi-view, if you do it VGGT style you will mix the positions of all the images. You should do it independently (i.e. no rope between images).
MapAnything: Universal Feed-Forward Metric 3D Reconstruction
Nikhil Keetha et 16 al.
tl;dr: VGGT meets Pow3R. No RoPE. Metric scale.

MapAnything: Universal Feed-Forward Metric 3D Reconstruction
@nikv9.bsky.social et al.
tl;dr: flexible input & metric output version of VGGT

And here is a link to the thesis itself: liu.diva-portal.org/smash/record...
Towards the Next Generation of 3D Reconstruction
@parskatt.bsky.social PhD Thesis.
tl;dr: would be useful in teaching image matching - nice explanations. (too) Fancy and stylish notation. Cool Ack section and cover image.
