Real-time six degrees-of-freedom(6D)object pose estimation is essential for many real-world applications, such as robotic grasping and augmented reality. To achieve an accurate object pose estimation from RGB images in real-time, we propose an effective and lightweight model, namely high-resolution 6D pose estimation network(HRPose). We adopt the efficient and small HRNetV2-W18 as a feature extractor to reduce computational burdens while generating accurate 6D poses. With only 33% of the model size and lower computational costs, our HRPose achieves comparable performance compared with state-of-the-art models. Moreover, by transferring knowledge from a large model to our proposed HRPose through output and feature-similarity distillations, the performance of our HRPose is improved in effectiveness and efficiency. Numerical experiments on the widely-used benchmark LINEMOD demonstrate the superiority of our proposed HRPose against state-of-the-art methods.

This paper investigates the strong structural controllability(SSC) of multi-agent systems(MASs) defined over Laplacian dynamics on directed graphs. The agents that are divided into leaders and followers are connected based on the consensus law and only leaders are manipulated by the external control input directly. In contrast to existing work, the topology of MAS contains uncertain interconnection edges between agents. The interconnection graph has a zero/nonzero/arbitrary structure, to handle the parameters uncertainty problem in MASs. Under this framework, the authors propose a color-changing rule based on the zero-forcing set(ZFS). A graph-theoretic sufficient condition of SSC is proved. Next, the authors investigate the leader selection problem to ensure the SSC of MASs. A greedy algorithm based on ZFS is introduced. In addition, the authors figure out that the redundant property of edges in MASs can help us decide the leader selection problem. A new heuristic algorithm of polynomial complexity is developed to select minimum leaders of the multi-agent ***, the authors support the proposed analysis with numerical results on various simulations.

Target search in unknown environments places high demands not only on an autonomous vehicle's ability to perceive and interpret target cues, but also on its conscious of collecting these cues by active exploration. While existing navigation methods have successfully built target-driven policies by maintaining memory of explored areas, there has been a lack of focus on facilitating target-aware exploration-the informative frontier information at unexplored yet visible areas is often overlooked. In this paper, we introduce a novel topology-based memory structure, Frontier-enhanced Topological Memory (FTM), and a Hierarchical Topology Encoding and Extraction (HTEE) module, fostering the autonomous vehicle's awareness of both environmental exploration and target approach. Specifically, FTM innovatively incorporates informative ghost nodes on traditional topological map to represent unexplored yet visible regions. We leverage an online-trained implicit scene representation to estimate the positions and generate features of these ghost nodes. The HTEE then employs implicit graph convolutions and attention mechanisms to extract cognitive information from FTM, taking into account the hierarchical memory structure, target cues, and current state. Our design bolsters cognitive navigation decisions. The experiments in the high-fidelity environments, including performance tests, visualizations, and interpretability experiments, validate the effectiveness of our approach in enhancing the vehicle's exploratory behavior. The improved exploration awareness for target cue collection, in turn, enhances the success rate and path efficiency of target search. Furthermore, we demonstrate the adaptability of our algorithm in real-world physical environments. IEEE
