C$^3$Fusion: Consistent Contrastive Colon Fusion, Towards Deep SLAM in Colonoscopy
3D colon reconstruction from Optical Colonoscopy (OC) to detect non-examined surfaces remains an unsolved problem. The challenges arise from the nature of optical colonoscopy data, characterized by highly reflective low-texture surfaces, drastic illumination changes and frequent tracking loss. Recent methods demonstrate compelling results, but suffer from: (1) frangible frame-to-frame (or frame-to-model) pose estimation resulting in many tracking failures; or (2) rely on point-based representations at the cost of scan quality. In this paper, we propose a novel reconstruction framework that addresses these issues end to end, which result in both quantitatively and qualitatively accurate and robust 3D colon reconstruction. Our SLAM approach, which employs correspondences based on contrastive deep features, and deep consistent depth maps, estimates globally optimized poses, is able to recover from frequent tracking failures, and estimates a global consistent 3D model; all within a single framework. We perform an extensive experimental evaluation on multiple synthetic and real colonoscopy videos, showing high-quality results and comparisons against relevant baselines.

RoGER-SLAM: A Robust Gaussian Splatting SLAM System for Noisy and Low-light Environment Resilience
The reliability of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is severely constrained in environments where visual inputs suffer from noise and low illumination. Although recent 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) based SLAM …
Real-Time 3D Reconstruction of Colonoscopic Surfaces for Determining Missing Regions
Colonoscopy is the most widely used medical technique to screen the human large intestine (colon) for cancer precursors. However, frequently parts of the surface are not visualized, and it is hard for the endoscopist to …
