The point pair feature (PPF) is widely used for 6D pose estimation. In this paper, we propose an efficient 6D pose estimation method based on the PPF framework. We introduce a well-targeted down-sampling strategy that focuses on edge areas for efficient feature extraction for complex geometry. A pose hypothesis validation approach is proposed to resolve ambiguity due to symmetry by calculating the edge matching degree. We perform evaluations on two challenging datasets and one real-world collected dataset, demonstrating the superiority of our method for pose estimation for geometrically complex, occluded, symmetrical objects. We further validate our method by applying it to simulated punctures.
