QuadricSLAM: Dual Quadrics From Object Detections as Landmarks in Object-Oriented SLAM

RA-L 2019

In this letter, we use two-dimensional (2-D) object detections from multiple views to simultaneously estimate a 3-D quadric surface for each object and localize the camera position. We derive a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) formulation that uses dual quadrics as 3-D landmark represent

Dropout Sampling for Robust Object Detection in Open-Set Conditions

ICRA 2018poster

Dropout Variational Inference, or Dropout Sampling, has been recently proposed as an approximation technique for Bayesian Deep Learning and evaluated for image classification and regression tasks. This paper investigates the utility of Dropout Sampling for object detection for the first time. We dem…

The ACRV picking benchmark: A robotic shelf picking benchmark to foster reproducible research

ICRA 2017poster

Robotic challenges like the Amazon Picking Challenge (APC) or the DARPA Challenges are an established and important way to drive scientific progress. They make research comparable on a well-defined benchmark with equal test conditions for all participants. However, such challenge events occur only o…
