I am interested in representation, learning, and refinement of object poses for scene understanding.
As a part of my research, I developed StilllebenDR, a light-weight, fast differentiable renderer.
Some results of 6D object pose refinement using StilllebeDR in abstract render-and-compare framework are shown here:
Deformable registration using StilllebenDR and shape-space model in render-and-compare framework are shown here:
