Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium for predicting object pose. In one aspect, a method includes receiving an image of an object having one or more feature points; providing the image as an input to a neural network subsystem trained to receive images of objects and to generate an output including a heat map for each feature point; applying a differentiable transformation on each heat map to generate respective one or more feature coordinates for each feature point; providing the feature coordinates for each feature point as input to an object pose solver configured to compute a predicted object pose for the object, wherein the predicted object pose for the object specifies a position and an orientation of an object; and receiving, at the output of the object pose solver, a predicted object pose for the object in the image.
