Center-Based Decoupled Point Cloud Registration for 6D Object Pose Estimation

Mathieu Salzmann, Jiancheng Yang, Zheng Dang, Haobo Jiang

In this paper, we propose a novel center-based decoupled point cloud registration framework for robust 6D object pose estimation in real-world scenarios. Our method decouples the translation from the entire transformation by predicting the object center an ...
