Abstract: A method and system detects and localizes multiple instances of an object by first acquiring a frame of a three-dimensional (3D) scene with a sensor, and extracting features from the frame. The features are matched according to appearance similarity and triplets are formed among matching features. Based on 3D locations of the corresponding points in the matching triplets, a geometric transformation is computed. Matching triplets are clustered according to the computed geometric transformations. Since the set of features coining from two different object instances should have a single geometric transform, the output of clustering provides the features and poses of each object instance in the image.
