GCE-Pose – Predicting Whole Objects From Partial Views
MCML Research Insight - With Weihang Li, Junwen Huang, Hyunjun Jung, Nassir Navab, and Benjamin Busam
Imagine trying to identify the full shape of a familiar object, e.g. a mug, when only its handle is visible. That’s the challenge a computer faces when estimating the pose of an object (its orientation and size) from partial data. GCE‑Pose, a new approach from MCML Junior Members Weihang Li, Junwen …
