Probabilistic 3d regression with projected huber distribution

Abstract: Estimating probability distributions which describe where an object is likely to be from camera data is a task with many applications. In this work we describe properties which we argue such methods should conform to. We also design a method which conform to these properties. In our experiments we show that our method produces uncertainties which correlate well with empirical errors. We also show that the mode of the predicted distribution outperform our regression baselines. The code for our implementation is available online.
