Scale Anchoring via Implicit Semantics and Sequence-Consistent Loop Closure for VGGT-Based SLAM
Overview
This research extends VGGT-SLAM 2.0 with fixed-root scale anchoring and short-sequence-assisted direct loop connections to address scale drift in dense monocular reconstruction. The method uses learned implicit semantic-geometric cues to provide scale anchors while maintaining overlap chains, and employs consistency checks for translation-scale alignment without auxiliary loop submaps. Results show a reduction in mean Sim(3) ATE from 0.1018 m to 0.0451 m on nine TUM sequences compared to the baseline, with improvements across various ablation studies and comparisons on Clio scenes.

“rame nodes, without an auxiliary loop submap. A 17-sequence comparison lowers mean Sim(3) ATE on nine TUM sequences from 0.1018 to 0.0451 m relative to the VGGT-SLAM 2.0 baseline. Anchoring improves all seven no-loop module ablations. On three Clio scenes, a fixed-loop comparison favors the direct connection pipeline over the tested auxiliary-submap pipeline.
