The paper introduces PICO, an end-to-end trainable model for 6DoF surgical tool pose estimation that uses multi-task learning to predict segmentation, depth, and pose parameters. It incorporates two geometry-aware proxy tasks—a projection loss and a point-to-point loss—to enforce consistency in 2D and 3D spaces, improving accuracy and robustness. Evaluated on the SurgRIPE dataset, PICO achieves strong performance, ranking second in rotation accuracy and maintaining competitive translation results, especially under occlusion.
NovaSplat is a model‑free pipeline for 6D object pose estimation that builds a 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) model from a short smartphone video during onboarding. The 3DGS model serves both as a template for detection and coarse pose estimation and as a differentiable backbone for pose refinement, which optimizes pose using photometric and geometric losses under a continuous rotation parametrization. The method outperforms all model‑based methods on a household‑object benchmark and all model‑free competitors on a challenging industrial benchmark, while a faster variant, NovaSplat‑Lite, achieves comparable accuracy with a 3.1× speedup.
