• Abstract: In this paper, we present a novel, end-to-end 6D object pose estimation method that operates on RGB inputs. Our approach is composed of 2 main components: the first component classifies the objects in the input image and proposes an initial 6D pose estimate through a multi-task, CNN-based encoder/multi-decoder module. The second component, a refinement module, includes a renderer and a multi-attentional pose refinement network, which iteratively refines the estimated poses by utilizing both appearance features and flow vectors. Our refiner takes advantage of the hybrid representation of the initial pose estimates to predict the relative errors with respect to the target poses. It is further augmented by a spatial multi-attention block that emphasizes objects' discriminative feature parts. Experiments on three benchmarks for 6D pose estimation show that our proposed pipeline outperforms state-of-the-art RGB-based methods with competitive runtime performance.

  We address the task of estimating 6D camera poses from sparse-view image sets (2-8 images) We build on the recent RelPose framework which learns a network that infers distributions over relative rotations over image pairs. Our final system results in large improvements in 6D pose prediction over prior art on both seen and unseen object categories.

  SO-Pose is a framework for regressing all 6 degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) for the object pose in a cluttered environment from a single RGB image.

Cross-layer consistencies that align correspondences, self-occlusion and 6D pose, we can further improve accuracy and robustness.

  We propose a new method for 6D pose estimation refinement from RGB images. Our main insight is that after the initial pose estimate, it is important to pay attention to distinct spatial features of the object. We experimentally show that this approach learns to attend to salient spatial features and learns to ignore occluded parts of the object, leading to better pose estimation across datasets.
