We consider the task of re-calibrating the 3D pose of a static surveillance camera, whose pose may change due to external forces, such as birds, wind, falling objects or earthquakes. Conventionally, camera pose estimation can be solved with…

Category-level object pose estimation aims to predict the 6D pose and 3D size of objects within given categories. Existing approaches for this task rely solely on 6D poses as supervisory signals without explicitly capturing the intrinsic…
