Given sparse views of a 3D object, estimating their camera poses is a long-standing and intractable problem. Toward this goal, we consider harnessing the pre-trained diffusion model of novel views conditioned on viewpoints (Zero-1-to-3). We…
We propose two minimal solutions to the problem of relative pose estimation of (i) a calibrated camera from four points in two views and (ii) a calibrated generalized camera from five points in two views. In both cases, the relative…
We present a novel approach to the detection and 3D pose estimation of objects in color images. Its main contribution is that it does not require any training phases nor data for new objects, while state-of-the-art methods typically require…

In many practical 6D object pose estimation scenarios, we often have access to only a single real-world RGB-D reference view per object, typically without CAD models. Existing methods largely rely on explicit 3D models or multi-view data,…
