Camera calibration is a fundamental prerequisite for reliable geometric perception, yet classical approaches rely on controlled acquisition setups that are impractical for in-the-wild imagery. Recent learning-based methods have shown promising results for single-view calibration, but inherently neglect geometric consistency across multiple views. We introduce CalibAnyView, a unified formulation that supports an arbitrary number of input views (N≥1) by explicitly modeling cross-view geometric consistency. To facilitate this, we construct a large-scale multi-view video dataset covering diverse real-world scenarios, including multiple camera models, dynamic scenes, realistic motion trajectories, and heterogeneous lens distortions. Building on this dataset, we develop a multi-view transformer that predicts dense perspective fields, which are further integrated into a geometric optimization framework to jointly estimate camera intrinsics and gravity direction. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CalibAnyView consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieves strong robustness under single-view settings, and further improves with multi-view inference, providing a reliable foundation for downstream tasks such as 3D reconstruction and robotic perception in the wild.
Recovering 3D human pose from multi-view imagery typically relies on precise camera calibration, which is often unavailable in real-world scenarios, thereby severely limiting the applicability of existing methods. To overcome this challenge, we propose an unconstrained framework that synergizes deep neural networks, algebraic priors, and temporal dynamics for uncalibrated multi-view human pose estimation. First, we introduce the Triangulation with Transformer Regressor (TTR), which reformulates classical triangulation into a data-driven token fusion process to bypass the dependency on explicit camera parameters. Second, to explicitly embed the inherent algebraic relations of the multi-view variety into the learning process, we propose the Gröbner basis Corrector (GC). This pioneering loss formulation enforces constraints derived from the multi-view variety to ensure the neural predictions strictly adhere to the laws of projective geometry. Finally, we devise the Temporal Equivariant Rectifier (TER), which exploits the equivariance property of human motion to impose temporal coherence and structural consistency, effectively mitigating scale ambiguity in uncalibrated settings. Extensive evaluations on standard benchmarks demonstrate that our framework establishes a new state-of-the-art for uncalibrated multi-view human pose estimation. Notably, our approach significantly closes the performance gap between calibration-free methods and fully calibrated oracles.
Computing accurate geometry from multi-view images is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Recent feed-forward (FF) models jointly estimate 3D geometry and camera parameters, but they typically suffer from geometry distortion caused by reconstruction ambiguity, even when ground-truth camera parameters are supplied. In this paper, we study the multi-view stereo (MVS) problem with known camera parameters and propose a novel approach that bridges conventional MVS and FF methods. Rather than casting MVS as a sequence-to-one mapping that predicts depth only for a single reference view, we reformulate it as a sequence-to-sequence task, akin to FF models, that jointly predicts geometry for all input views. We introduce a global transformer-based architecture with two components that explicitly exploit camera-induced priors: ray-map embeddings that inject camera parameters into image patch tokens, making the transformer camera-aware, and a unified global cost volume that replaces conventional per-view cost volumes to jointly capture 3D structure across all views. Extensive experiments on multiple public benchmarks show our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing both MVS and FF reconstruction baselines.
We address the challenging problem of dense dynamic scene reconstruction and camera pose estimation from multiple freely moving cameras -- a setting that arises naturally when multiple observers capture a shared event. Prior approaches either handle only single-camera input or require rigidly mounted, pre-calibrated camera rigs, limiting their practical applicability. We propose a two-stage optimization framework that decouples the task into robust camera tracking and dense depth refinement. In the first stage, we extend single-camera visual SLAM to the multi-camera setting by constructing a spatiotemporal connection graph that exploits both intra-camera temporal continuity and inter-camera spatial overlap, enabling consistent scale and robust tracking. To ensure robustness under limited overlap, we introduce a wide-baseline initialization strategy using feed-forward reconstruction models. In the second stage, we refine depth and camera poses by optimizing dense inter- and intra-camera consistency using wide-baseline optical flow. Additionally, we introduce MultiCamRobolab, a new real-world dataset with ground-truth poses from a motion capture system. Finally, we demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art feed-forward models on both synthetic and real-world benchmarks, while requiring less memory.
