Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replace LP corruption estimation with QP (DESC) formulation | corruption estimation on synthetic UCM data (sigma=0) · synthetic SO(3), n=100, p=0.5 | mean absolute corruption error | Helped |
| Replace LP corruption estimation with QP (DESC) formulation | rotation estimation on synthetic data · synthetic SO(3), sigma=0 | log mean rotation error | Helped |
| Refine DESC-init with IRLS using DESC-estimated corruption levels blended with residuals (ablation) | rotation averaging on Photo Tourism · Photo Tourism (13 datasets) | mean and median rotation error: mean 3.8354 -> 3.5119; median 1.8516 -> 1.5938 | Helped |
| Use DESC-based GCW initialization instead of CEMP-GCW (ablation) | rotation initialization on synthetic data and Photo Tourism · Photo Tourism and synthetic SO(3) | rotation error: Photo Tourism median 2.0339 (CEMP-GCW) -> 1.8516 (DESC-init) | Helped |
| Replace CEMP corruption estimation with DESC QP | corruption estimation on Photo Tourism · Photo Tourism (13 datasets) | median corruption error: median error more than 50% lower on six datasets | Helped |
| Replace CEMP with DESC for corruption estimation | corruption estimation on synthetic data · synthetic SO(3) | mean corruption error | Mixed |
| Replace CEMP with DESC for corruption estimation | corruption estimation on synthetic data · synthetic SO(3), sigma=0 | median corruption error: several orders of magnitude more accurate | Helped |
| DESC runtime per iteration vs CEMP (more iterations needed) | runtime · synthetic data | per-iteration runtime (s): 0.06 s vs 0.02 s per iteration; slower overall | Hurt |
