arXiv:2610.31797v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating a camera pose from 3D-2D correspondences - Perspective-n-Point - is one of the most fundamental problems in computer vision. Existing methods either solve a minimal problem or replace the objective with an easier one. Surprisingly, no scalable certifiable solver for the actual Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) exists. We propose PnP*, the first practical solver that guarantees efficient computation and returns a certifiable globally optimal solution. We prove that the underlying convex relaxation is exact under moderate noise, which to our knowledge is the first stability guarantee for any relaxation for the MLE of PnP. Furthermore, we reduce the relaxation by exploiting chordal sparsity pattern and quotient ring reduction such that the relaxation is tractable and scalable. The stability and scalability results are verified numerically, as PnP* returns a provably correct camera pose at over 10 Hz.
