    Abstract: A system and method for determining occlusion are presented. The system receives camera data generated by at least one camera, which includes a first camera having a first camera field of view. The camera data is generated when a stack having a plurality of objects is in the first camera field of view, and describes a stack structure formed from at least an object structure for a first object of the plurality of objects. The system identifies a target feature of or disposed on the object structure, and determines a 2D region that is co-planar with and surrounds the target feature. The system determines a 3D region defined by connecting a location of the first camera and the 2D region. The system determines, based on the camera data and the 3D region, a size of an occluding region, and determines a value of an object recognition confidence parameter.

    Abstract: A system and method for processing candidate edges are presented. The method may be performed when spatial structure information and 2D image information are stored. The method may include identifying, based on the spatial structure information, a 3D location that represents a corner of an object structure; identifying, based on the spatial structure information, a 3D vector that extends from the 3D location and is parallel with an edge; determining a 2D location within the 2D image information that corresponds to the 3D location; determining a 2D vector within the 2D image information that corresponds to the 3D vector; determining an edge detection region; identifying a cluster of candidate edges within the edge detection region that does not represent any object edge; identifying, as a 2D object edge, a candidate edge that is not part of the identified cluster; and performing segmentation based on the 2D object edge.

    Abstract: A method performed by a computing system is presented. The method may include the computing system receiving image information that represents an object surface associated with a flexible object, and identifying, as a grip region, a surface region of the object surface that satisfies a defined smoothness condition and has a region size that is larger than or equal to a defined region size threshold, wherein the grip region is identified based on the image information. The method may further include identifying, as a safety region, a three-dimensional (3D) region which surrounds the grip region in one or more horizontal dimensions, and which extends from the grip region along a vertical dimension that is perpendicular to the one or more horizontal dimensions. The method may further include performing robot motion planning based on the grip region and the safety region.
