In this work, we present a modified fuzzy decision forest for real-time 3D object pose estimation based on typical template representation. We employ an extra preemptive background rejector node in the decision forest framework to terminate the examination of background locations as early as possible, result in a significantly improvement on efficiency. Our approach is also scalable to large dataset since the tree structure naturally provides a logarithm time complexity to the number of objects. Finally we further reduce the validation stage with a fast breadth-first scheme. The results show that our approach outperform the state-of-the-arts on the efficiency while maintaining a comparable accuracy.
We present a scalable method for detecting objects and estimating their 3D poses in RGB-D data. To this end, we rely on an efficient representation of object views and employ hashing techniques to match these views against the input frame in a scalable way. While a similar approach already exists for 2D detection, we show how to extend it to estimate the 3D pose of the detected objects. In particular, we explore different hashing strategies and identify the one which is more suitable to our problem. We show empirically that the complexity of our method is sublinear with the number of objects and we enable detection and pose estimation of many 3D objects with high accuracy while outperforming the state-of-the-art in terms of runtime.
