We address rotation averaging (RA) and its application to real-world 3D reconstruction. Local optimisation based approaches are the de facto choice, though they only guarantee a local optimum. Global optimisers ensure global optimality in low noise conditions, but they are inefficient and may easily deviate under the influence of outliers or elevated noise levels. We push the envelope of rotation averaging by leveraging the advantages of a global RA method and a local RA method. Combined with a fast view graph filtering as preprocessing, the proposed hybrid approach is robust to outliers. We further apply the proposed hybrid rotation averaging approach to incremental Structure from Motion (SfM), the accuracy and robustness of SfM are both improved by adding the resulting global rotations as regularisers to bundle adjustment. Overall, we demonstrate high practicality of the proposed method as bad camera poses are effectively corrected and drift is reduced.

A cornerstone of geometric reconstruction, rotation averaging seeks the set of absolute rotations that optimally explains a set of measured relative orientations between them. In spite of being an integral part of bundle adjustment and structure-from
-motion, averaging rotations is both a non-convex and high-dimensional optimization problem. In this paper, we address it from a maximum likelihood estimation standpoint and make a twofold contribution. Firstly, we set forth a novel initialization-free primal-dual method which we show empirically to converge to the global optimum. Further, we derive what is to our knowledge, the first optimal closed-form solution for rotation averaging in cycle graphs and contextualize this result within spectral graph theory. Our proposed methods achieve a significant gain both in precision and performance.
Model averaging is an alternative to model selection for dealing with model uncertainty, which is widely used and very valuable. However, most of the existing model averaging methods are proposed based on the least squares loss function, which could
be very sensitive to the presence of outliers in the data. In this paper, we propose an outlier-robust model averaging approach by Mallows-type criterion. The key idea is to develop weight choice criteria by minimising an estimator of the expected prediction error for the function being convex with an unique minimum, and twice differentiable in expectation, rather than the expected squared error. The robust loss functions, such as least absolute deviation and Hubers function, reduce the effects of large residuals and poor samples. Simulation study and real data analysis are conducted to demonstrate the finite-sample performance of our estimators and compare them with other model selection and averaging methods.
We study novel robust zero-order algorithms with acceleration for the solution of real-time optimization problems. In particular, we propose a family of extremum seeking dynamics that can be universally modeled as singularly perturbed hybrid dynamica
l systems with restarting mechanisms. From this family of dynamics, we synthesize four fast algorithms for the solution of convex, strongly convex, constrained, and unconstrained optimization problems. In each case, we establish robust semi-global practical asymptotic or exponential stability results, and we show how to obtain well-posed discretized algorithms that retain the main properties of the original dynamics. Given that existing averaging theorems for singularly perturbed hybrid systems are not directly applicable to our setting, we derive a new averaging theorem that relaxes some of the assumptions made in the literature, allowing us to make a clear link between the KL bounds that characterize the rates of convergence of the hybrid dynamics and their average dynamics. We also show that our results are applicable to non-hybrid algorithms, thus providing a general framework for accelerated dynamics based on averaging theory. We present different numerical examples to illustrate our results.
Many existing translation averaging algorithms are either sensitive to disparate camera baselines and have to rely on extensive preprocessing to improve the observed Epipolar Geometry graph, or if they are robust against disparate camera baselines, r
equire complicated optimization to minimize the highly nonlinear angular error objective. In this paper, we carefully design a simple yet effective bilinear objective function, introducing a variable to perform the requisite normalization. The objective function enjoys the baseline-insensitive property of the angular error and yet is amenable to simple and efficient optimization by block coordinate descent, with good empirical performance. A rotation-assisted Iterative Reweighted Least Squares scheme is further put forth to help deal with outliers. We also contribute towards a better understanding of the behavior of two recent convex algorithms, LUD and Shapefit/kick, clarifying the underlying subtle difference that leads to the performance gap. Finally, we demonstrate that our algorithm achieves overall superior accuracies in benchmark dataset compared to state-of-theart methods, and is also several times faster.
The gravitational field equations on cosmological scales are obtained by averaging the Einstein field equations of general relativity. By assuming spatial homogeneity and isotropy on the largest scales, the local inhomogeneities affect the dynamics t
hough correction (backreaction) terms, which can lead to behaviour qualitatively and quantitatively different from the Friedmann-Lema^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker models. The effects of averaging on cosmological observations are discussed. It is argued that, based on estimates from observational data, the backreaction (and, in particular, the averaged spatial curvature) can have a very significant dynamical effect on the evolution of the Universe and must be taken into account in observational cosmology.
