Featurising Pixels from Dynamic 3D Scenes with Linear In-Context Learners

One of the most exciting applications of vision models involve pixel-level reasoning. Despite the abundance of vision foundation models, we still lack representations that effectively embed spatio-temporal properties of visual scenes at the pixel level. Existing frameworks either train on image-based pretext tasks, which do not account for dynamic elements, or on video sequences for action-level reasoning, which does not scale to dense pixel-level prediction. We present a framework that learns pixel-accurate feature descriptors from videos, LILA. The core element of our training framework is linear in-context learning. LILA leverages spatio-temporal cue maps -- depth and motion -- estimated with off-the-shelf networks. Despite the noisy nature of those cues, LILA trains effectively on uncurated video datasets, embedding semantic and geometric properties in a temporally consistent manner. We demonstrate compelling empirical benefits of the learned representation across a diverse suite of vision tasks: video object segmentation, surface normal estimation and semantic segmentation.

Iterative Corresponding Geometry: Fusing Region and Depth for Highly Efficient 3D Tracking of Textureless Objects

Tracking objects in 3D space and predicting their 6DoF pose is an essential task in computer vision. State-of-the-art approaches often rely on object texture to tackle this problem. However, while they achieve impressive results, many objects do not contain sufficient texture, violating the main underlying assumption. In the following, we thus propose ICG, a novel probabilistic tracker that fuses region and depth information and only requires the object geometry. Our method deploys correspondence lines and points to iteratively refine the pose. We also implement robust occlusion handling to improve performance in real-world settings. Experiments on the YCB-Video, OPT, and Choi datasets demonstrate that, even for textured objects, our approach outperforms the current state of the art with respect to accuracy and robustness. At the same time, ICG shows fast convergence and outstanding efficiency, requiring only 1.3 ms per frame on a single CPU core. Finally, we analyze the influence of individual components and discuss our performance compared to deep learning-based methods. The source code of our tracker is publicly available.

Multi-path Learning for Object Pose Estimation Across Domains

We introduce a scalable approach for object pose estimation trained on simulated RGB views of multiple 3D models together. We learn an encoding of object views that does not only describe an implicit orientation of all objects seen during training, but can also relate views of untrained objects. Our single-encoder-multi-decoder network is trained using a technique we denote "multi-path learning": While the encoder is shared by all objects, each decoder only reconstructs views of a single object. Consequently, views of different instances do not have to be separated in the latent space and can share common features. The resulting encoder generalizes well from synthetic to real data and across various instances, categories, model types and datasets. We systematically investigate the learned encodings, their generalization, and iterative refinement strategies on the ModelNet40 and T-LESS dataset. Despite training jointly on multiple objects, our 6D Object Detection pipeline achieves state-of-the-art results on T-LESS at much lower runtimes than competing approaches.
