Description

In PBR-only setting, all models are trained only using the provided PBR synthetic data and tested with depth/ICP refinement. For each dataset, we trained a CDPN model for each object.

For detection, different from CDPN in BOP19, we used the FCOS with BackBone of vovnet-V2-57-FPN [1]. We trained a detector for each dataset. The detector was trained for 8 epochs with batch size of 4 on a single GPU, 4 workers, and a learning rate of 1e-3. We used color augmentation similar to AAE [2] during training.

For pose estimation, the difference between our CDPNv2 and the BOP19-version CDPN mainly includes:

  • Domain Randomization: We used stronger domain randomization operations than BOP19. The details will be provided after the deadline.

  • Network Architecture: Considering the organizer provides high-quality PBR synthetic training data in BOP20, we adopt a deeper 34-layer Resnet as the backbone instead of the 18-layer Resnet used in BOP19-version CDPN. Also, the fancy concat structures in BOP19-version CDPN are removed. The input and output resolutions are 256x256 and 64x64 respectively.

  • Training During training, the initial learning rate was 1 × 10−4 and the batch size was 6. We used RMSProp with alpha 0.99 and epsilon 1× 10−8 to optimize the network. The model was trained for 160 epochs in total and the learning rate was divided by 10 every 50 epochs

  • Other implementations, such as the coordinates labels were computed by back-projection from the rendered depth, instead of forward-projection with z-buffer.
