Rigidity-Aware Detection for 6D Object Pose Estimation

Mathieu Salzmann, Yinlin Hu, Rui Song, Jingyu Li

Most recent 6D object pose estimation methods first use object detection to obtain 2D bounding boxes before actually regressing the pose. However, the general object detection methods they use are ill-suited to handle cluttered scenes, thus producing poor ...

How deep convolutional neural networks lose spatial information with training

Matthieu Wyart, Leonardo Petrini, Umberto Maria Tomasini, Francesco Cagnetta

A central question of machine learning is how deep nets manage to learn tasks in high dimensions. An appealing hypothesis is that they achieve this feat by building a representation of the data where information irrelevant to the task is lost. For image da ...
