• Authors: Felix Wimbauer, Shangzhe Wu, Christian Rupprecht
• Abstract summary: We present a weakly supervised method that is able to decompose a single image of an object into shape. For training, the method only relies on a rough initial shape estimate of the training objects to bootstrap the learning process. In our experiments, we show that the method can successfully de-render 2D images into a 3D representation and generalizes to unseen object categories.

• Abstract: With increasing focus on augmented and virtual reality applications (XR) comes the demand for algorithms that can lift objects from images and videos into representations that are suitable for a wide variety of related 3D tasks. Large-scale deployment of XR devices and applications means that we cannot solely rely on supervised learning, as collecting and annotating data for the unlimited variety of objects in the real world is infeasible. We present a weakly supervised method that is able to decompose a single image of an object into shape (depth and normals), material (albedo, reflectivity and shininess) and global lighting parameters. For training, the method only relies on a rough initial shape estimate of the training objects to bootstrap the learning process. This shape supervision can come for example from a pretrained depth network or - more generically - from a traditional structure-from-motion pipeline. In our experiments, we show that the method can successfully de-render 2D images into a decomposed 3D representation and generalizes to unseen object categories. Since in-the-wild evaluation is difficult due to the lack of ground truth data, we also introduce a photo-realistic synthetic test set that allows for quantitative evaluation.

  Dense Object Nets (DONs) by Florence, Manuelli and Tedrake introduced dense object descriptors as a novel visual object representation for the robotics community. In this paper we show that given a 3D model of an object, we can generate its descriptor space image, which allows for supervised training of DONs. We compare the training methods on generating 6D grasps for industrial objects and show that our novel supervised training approach improves the pick-and-place performance in industry-relevant tasks.

  PriSMONet is a novel approach for learning Multi-Object 3D scene decomposition and representations from single images. A recurrent encoder regresses a latent representation of 3D shape, pose and texture of each object from an input RGB image. We evaluate the accuracy of our model in inferring 3D scene layout, demonstrate its generative capabilities, assess its generalization to real images, and point out benefits of the learned representation.

  We present a novel approach to single view metrology that can recover the absolute scale of a scene represented by 3D heights of objects or camera height above the ground. Our method relies on data-driven priors learned by a deep network specifically designed to imbibe weakly supervised constraints from the interplay of the unknown camera with 3D entities such as object heights. We demonstrate state-of-the-art qualitative and quantitative results on several datasets as well as applications including virtual object insertion.
