Solve for scale - monocular #924

How does ORB-SLAM2 solve for scale in a monocular setting. I understand that it is not possible to solve and we can recover pose only upto scale, nonetheless, going through a few other issues, it is suggested that we can approximately solve in one/many of the following ways.

  1. Initializing a good scale
  2. SIm3
  3. BA

among a few others. So how exactly does ORB-SLAM2 solve for scale in monocular setting. It would also be helpful if the relevant code is pointed out for the same.

Thanks
