Abstract
A method for determining a pose of an object in a scene by determining a set of scene features from data acquired of the scene and matching the scene features to model features to generate weighted candidate poses when the scene feature matches one of the model features, wherein the weight of the candidate pose is proportional to the model weight. Then, the pose of the object is determined from the candidate poses based on the weights.
