• Title: DoUnseen: Tuning-Free Class-Adaptive Object Detection of Unseen Objects for Robotic Grasping
• Authors: Anas Gouda, Moritz Roidl
• Abstract summary: We develop an object detector that requires no fine-tuning and can add any object as a class just by capturing a few images of the object. We evaluate our class-adaptive object detector on unseen datasets and compare it to a trained Mask R-CNN on those datasets.

• Abstract: How can we segment varying numbers of objects where each specific object represents its own separate class? To make the problem even more realistic, how can we add and delete classes on the fly without retraining or fine-tuning? This is the case of robotic applications where no datasets of the objects exist or application that includes thousands of objects (E.g., in logistics) where it is impossible to train a single model to learn all of the objects. Most current research on object segmentation for robotic grasping focuses on class-level object segmentation (E.g., box, cup, bottle), closed sets (specific objects of a dataset; for example, YCB dataset), or deep learning-based template matching. In this work, we are interested in open sets where the number of classes is unknown, varying, and without pre-knowledge about the objects' types. We consider each specific object as its own separate class. Our goal is to develop an object detector that requires no fine-tuning and can add any object as a class just by capturing a few images of the object. Our main idea is to break the segmentation pipelines into two steps by combining unseen object segmentation networks cascaded by class-adaptive classifiers. We evaluate our class-adaptive object detector on unseen datasets and compare it to a trained Mask R-CNN on those datasets. The results show that the performance varies from practical to unsuitable depending on the environment setup and the objects being handled. The code is available in our DoUnseen library repository.

  This paper proposes a video object-centric model for multiple-object tracking pipelines. It consists of an index-merge module that adapts the object-centric slots into detection outputs and an object memory module. Benefited from object-centric learning, we only require sparse detection labels for object localization and feature binding.

  We study the problem of object discovery -- separating objects from the background without manual labels. Existing approaches utilize appearance cues, such as color, texture, and location, to group pixels into object-like regions. We choose to focus on dynamic objects -- entities that can move independently in the world.

This simple strategy learns generalizable objectness and outperforms existing proposals on cross-category generalization.
