• Abstract: We present GNC--Pose, a fully learning--free monocular 6D object pose estimation pipeline for textured objects that combines rendering--based initialization, geometry--aware correspondence weighting, and robust GNC optimization. Starting from coarse 2D--3D correspondences obtained through feature matching and rendering--based alignment, our method builds upon the Graduated Non--Convexity (GNC) principle and introduces a geometry--aware, cluster--based weighting mechanism that assigns robust per point confidence based on the 3D structural consistency of the model. This geometric prior and weighting strategy significantly stabilizes the optimization under severe outlier contamination. A final LM refinement further improve accuracy. We tested GNC--Pose on The YCB Object and Model Set, despite requiring no learned features, training data, or category-specific priors, GNC--Pose achieves competitive accuracy compared with both learning-based and learning--free methods, and offers a simple, robust, and practical solution for learning-free 6D pose estimation.

• Spatial Attention Improves Iterative 6D Object Pose Estimation [52.365075652976735]
  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.
