Abstract

We propose a the use of a consistent Bayesian methodology for the analysis of the uncertainty associated with a pose estimation procedure. A novel model-based technique to estimate the pose of rigid 3-D objects from laser range finder images is studied, and various sources of uncertainty are carried through the process using a Bayesian MAP treatment, yielding local, point-by-point estimates of position and predicted error. Promising experimental results on complex objects are presented and discussed.
