Abstract

In accordance with some embodiments, a method is performed at a device with one or more processors and non-transitory memory. The method includes obtaining location vector data characterizing an object. The method includes determining a neural pose graph associated with a respective time-period based on an initial local pose estimation as a function of respective location vector data. The method includes determining a meta pose estimation associated with the respective time-period by aggregating the neural pose graph associated with the respective time-period and one or more other neural pose graphs associated with one or more temporally adjacent time-periods. The method includes synthesizing a corrected pose estimation by correcting the meta pose estimation associated with the respective time-period based on a function of the meta pose estimation associated with the respective time-period and meta pose estimations associated with one or more temporally adjacent time-periods in order to correct accumulated errors in the initial local pose estimation.
