• Abstract: In recent years, a deep learning framework has been widely used for object pose estimation. While quaternion is a common choice for rotation representation of 6D pose, it cannot represent an uncertainty of the observation. In order to handle the uncertainty, Bingham distribution is one promising solution because this has suitable features, such as a smooth representation over SO(3), in addition to the ambiguity representation. However, it requires the complex computation of the normalizing constants. This is the bottleneck of loss computation in training neural networks based on Bingham representation. As such, we propose a fast-computable and easy-to-implement loss function for Bingham distribution. We also show not only to examine the parametrization of Bingham distribution but also an application based on our loss function.

  We consider the bipartite graph and formalize its representation learning problem as a statistical estimation problem of parameters in a semiparametric exponential family distribution. We show that the proposed objective is strongly convex in a neighborhood around the ground truth, so that a gradient descent-based method achieves linear convergence rate. Our estimator is robust to any model misspecification within the exponential family, which is validated in extensive experiments.
