Evolution of visual object recognition architectures based on Convolutional Neural Networks & Convolutional Deep Belief Networks paradigms has revolutionized artificial Vision Science. These architectures extract & learn the real world…

In the context of 3D mapping, larger and larger point clouds are acquired with LIDAR sensors. The Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm is used to align these point clouds. However, its complexity is directly dependent of the number of…

A common requirement of plant breeding programs across the country is companion planting -- growing different species of plants in close proximity so they can mutually benefit each other. However, the determination of companion plants…

This paper presents an approach to estimating the continuous 6-DoF pose of an object from a single RGB image. The approach combines semantic keypoints predicted by a convolutional network (convnet) with a deformable shape model. Unlike…

This work proposes a process for efficiently searching over combinations of individual object 6D pose hypotheses in cluttered scenes, especially in cases involving occlusions and objects resting on each other. The initial set of candidate…

This paper proposes a novel learning-free three-stage method that predicts grasping poses, enabling robots to pick up and transfer previously unseen objects. Our method first identifies potential structures that can afford the action of…

We present a method for performing hierarchical object detection in images guided by a deep reinforcement learning agent. The key idea is to focus on those parts of the image that contain richer information and zoom on them. We train an…

Reliable object grasping is a crucial capability for autonomous robots. However, many existing grasping approaches focus on general clutter removal without explicitly modeling objects and thus only relying on the visible local geometry. We…

Robotic systems often require precise scene analysis capabilities, especially in unstructured, cluttered situations, as occurring in human-made environments. While current deep-learning based methods yield good estimates of object poses,…

Hierarchies allow feature sharing between objects at multiple levels of representation, can code exponential variability in a very compact way and enable fast inference. This makes them potentially suitable for learning and recognizing a…

Recovering detailed facial geometry from a set of calibrated multi-view images is valuable for its wide range of applications. Traditional multi-view stereo (MVS) methods adopt an optimization-based scheme to regularize the matching cost.…

Recently, learning frameworks have shown the capability of inferring the accurate shape, pose, and texture of an object from a single RGB image. However, current methods are trained on image collections of a single category in order to…

For robot manipulation, a complete and accurate object shape is desirable. Here, we present a method that combines visual and haptic reconstruction in a closed-loop pipeline. From an initial viewpoint, the object shape is reconstructed…

Recovering point clouds involves the sequential process of sampling and restoration, yet existing methods struggle to effectively leverage both topological and geometric attributes. To address this, we propose an end-to-end architecture…

A feature-mapping framework for inverse reconstruction of density-based topology optimization results is proposed. Unlike SIMP, whose voxelized outputs are hard to interpret or reuse, the method represents designs with high-level geometric…

Pose estimation-guided unseen object 6-DoF robotic manipulation is a key task in robotics. However, the scalability of current pose estimation methods to unseen objects remains a fundamental challenge, as they generally rely on CAD models…

3D object-level mapping is a fundamental problem in robotics, which is especially challenging when object CAD models are unavailable during inference. In this work, we propose a framework that can reconstruct high-quality object-level maps…

Learning based 6D object pose estimation methods rely on computing large intermediate pose representations and/or iteratively refining an initial estimation with a slow render-compare pipeline. This paper introduces a novel method we call…
