Dual Quaternion SE(3) Synchronization with Recovery Guarantees

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2602.00324v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Synchronization over the special Euclidean group SE(3) aims to recover absolute poses from noisy pairwise relative transformations and is a core primitive in robotics and 3D vision. Standard approaches often require multi-step heuristic procedures to recover valid poses, which are difficult to analyze and typically lack theoretical guarantees. This paper adopts a dual quaternion representation and formulates SE(3) synchronization directly over the unit dual quaternion.
