Templates for 3D Object Pose Estimation Revisited: Generalization to New Objects and Robustness to Occlusions

Mathieu Salzmann, Vincent Lepetit, Yinlin Hu, Van Nguyen Nguyen, Yang Xiao

We present a method that can recognize new objects and estimate their 3D pose in RGB images even under partial occlusions. Our method requires neither a training phase on these objects nor real images depicting them, only their CAD models. It relies on a s ...
