Based on the paper "ZebraPose: Coarse to Fine Surface Encoding for 6DoF Object Pose Estimation", CVPR 2022.

• Training images: PBR image + Real images (if available)

• Setting: One network per object was trained

• 2D Bounding Box: detection results provided by CDPNv2

• Modifications to the original ZebraPose paper:

  1. Added Symmetry-Aware Training (SAT). The network and loss functions are not changed. There will be a new ground truth for the sym. objects, details can be found in the Github Repository. Special thanks to Yongliang Lin for his contribution.

  2. We replace the Resnet34 backbone with EffnetB4 in ZebraPose. (Only replace the backbone in the pose estimation part)

• About the submission to segmentation challenge 2022: For every 2D bounding box provided by a 2D detector, we use ZebraPose network to infer the object visible mask and binary codes (as we did for object pose estimation). And we save 1) the confidence score from the 2D detector 2) as well as the predicted visible object mask into the json file for the segmentation evaluation.

• The reported inference time included 2D detection time.
