6D Camera Relocalization in Ambiguous Scenes via Continuous Multimodal Inference

We present a multimodal camera relocalization framework that captures ambiguities and uncertainties with continuous mixture models defined on the manifold of camera poses. In highly ambiguous environments, which can easily arise due to symmetries and …

Fairness by Learning Orthogonal Disentangled Representations

Learning discriminative powerful representations is a crucial step for machine learning systems. Introducing invariance against arbitrary nuisance or sensitive attributes while performing well on specific tasks is an important problem in …

Adversarial Networks for Camera Pose Regression and Refinement

Despite recent advances on the topic of direct camera pose regression using neural networks, accurately estimating the camera pose of a single RGB image still remains a challenging task. To address this problem, we introduce a novel framework based, …

Scene coordinate and correspondence learning for image-based localization

Scene coordinate regression has become an essential part of current camera re-localization methods. Different versions, such as regression forests and deep learning methods, have been successfully applied to estimate the corresponding camera pose …

When regression meets manifold learning for object recognition and pose estimation

In this work, we propose a method for object recognition and pose estimation from depth images using convolutional neural networks. Previous methods addressing this problem rely on manifold learning to learn low dimensional viewpoint descriptors and …

X-Ray PoseNet: 6 DoF pose estimation for mobile X-Ray devices

Precise reconstruction of 3D volumes from X-ray projections requires precisely pre-calibrated systems where accurate knowledge of the systems geometric parameters is known ahead. However, when dealing with mobile X-ray devices such calibration …
