MAPRPose: Mask-Aware Proposal and Amodal Refinement for Multi-Object 6D Pose Estimation

Object 6D pose estimation formulations have progressively reduced reliance on object-specific priors, evolving from explicit 3D models to multi-view object captures to single reference images. We take this progression to its extreme by introducing prior-free relative 6D pose estimation, which lifts the assumption of knowing which object is to be posed within the scene. This novel setting aims to estimate the relative poses of multiple instances of an unknown object within the same image, without requiring CAD models, templates, or reference images. We solve this by formulating a novel method (PROSE) that finds coarse correspondences between object instances using multimodal foundation features, thus requiring no training. We refine these correspondences by imposing cycle consistency across tuples of instances, and leverage the resulting globally consistent correspondences to estimate the relative 6D pose between any pair of instances. To enable systematic evaluation, we design a novel benchmark (PRENCH) built from three multi-instance BOP datasets and enriched with task-specific metadata. PROSE consistently outperforms baselines obtained by adapting state-of-the-art single-image methods to the proposed setting, while requiring neither task-specific supervision nor additional learned components.

6D object pose estimation is fundamental to robotic manipulation and automation. Recent zero-shot methods have significantly improved generalization to unseen objects, but most still rely on large-scale pretrained models with substantial GPU computation and memory demands. These requirements complicate deployment on robotic platforms where perception, planning, and control share limited computational resources, while learned intermediate representations offer limited geometric interpretability for task-specific adaptation. To address these limitations, we propose G6D, a learning-free, geometry-driven RGB-D 6D pose solver. Given an RGB-D observation, an object instance mask, camera intrinsics, and a CAD model, G6D generates pose hypotheses through template-based geometric matching and refines them using silhouette and depth consistency, forming a purely geometry-driven pose estimation paradigm. This paradigm requires neither pretrained visual models nor target-specific training and preserves interpretable geometric representations throughout pose estimation. Moreover, adjustable hypothesis counts provide flexible accuracy-computation trade-offs, while a CPU-only configuration supports deployment without GPU resources. Experiments on LineMOD and five BOP19 datasets demonstrate advanced performance. Real-world pick-and-place experiments further demonstrate G6D's applicability to robotic manipulation.

In many practical 6D object pose estimation scenarios, we often have access to only a single real-world RGB-D reference view per object, typically without CAD models. Existing methods largely rely on explicit 3D models or multi-view data, which limits their scalability. To address this challenging single-reference model-free setting, we propose \textbf{OneViewAll}, a semantic-prior-guided framework that performs pose estimation via a novel Project-and-Compare paradigm. Instead of relying on computationally expensive CAD-based rendering, our method directly aligns reference and query observations within a projection-equivariant space. OneViewAll progressively integrates hierarchical semantic priors across three levels: (1) \textit{category- and scene-level} priors for efficient hypothesis initialization; (2) \textit{object-level symmetry} priors for geometry completion via mirror fusion; and (3) \textit{patch-level} priors for discriminative refinement. Extensive experiments demonstrate that OneViewAll achieves \textbf{92.5%} ADD-0.1 accuracy on the LINEMOD dataset using only one real reference view -- significantly outperforming the CVPR 2025 baseline One2Any (52.6%). It also yields consistent improvements on YCB-V, Real275, and Toyota-Light while maintaining low inference latency. Our results underscore the efficacy of symmetry-aware projection in handling symmetric, texture-less, and occluded objects.
