• Authors: Liang Xie, Guodong Xu, Deng Cai, Xiaofei He
• Abstract summary: We propose a novel multi-view-based 3D detection method, named X-view, to overcome the drawbacks of the multi-view methods. X-view breaks through the traditional limitation about the perspective view whose original point must be consistent with the 3D Cartesian coordinate. We conduct experiments on KITTI and NuScenes datasets to demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of our proposed X-view.

• Abstract: 3D object detection algorithms for autonomous driving reason about 3D obstacles either from 3D birds-eye view or perspective view or both. Recent works attempt to improve the detection performance via mining and fusing from multiple egocentric views. Although the egocentric perspective view alleviates some weaknesses of the birds-eye view, the sectored grid partition becomes so coarse in the distance that the targets and surrounding context mix together, which makes the features less discriminative. In this paper, we generalize the research on 3D multi-view learning and propose a novel multi-view-based 3D detection method, named X-view, to overcome the drawbacks of the multi-view methods. Specifically, X-view breaks through the traditional limitation about the perspective view whose original point must be consistent with the 3D Cartesian coordinate. X-view is designed as a general paradigm that can be applied on almost any 3D detectors based on LiDAR with only little increment of running time, no matter it is voxel/grid-based or raw-point-based. We conduct experiments on KITTI and NuScenes datasets to demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of our proposed X-view. The results show that X-view obtains consistent improvements when combined with four mainstream state-of-the-art 3D methods: SECOND, PointRCNN, Part-A^2, and PV-RCNN.

  We propose a novel approach called SOGDet (Semantic-Occupancy Guided Multi-view 3D Object Detection) to improve the accuracy of 3D object detection. Our results show that SOGDet consistently enhance the performance of three baseline methods in terms of nuScenes Detection Score (NDS) and mean Average Precision (mAP) This indicates that the combination of 3D object detection and 3D semantic occupancy leads to a more comprehensive perception of the 3D environment, thereby aiding build more robust autonomous driving systems.

  3D object detection from monocular image(s) is a challenging and long-standing problem of computer vision. Recent methods tend to aggregate multiview feature by sampling regular 3D grid densely in space. We propose a learnable keypoints sampling method, which scatters pseudo surface points in 3D space, in order to keep data sparsity.

  Learning sensorimotor control policies from high-dimensional images crucially relies on the quality of the underlying visual representations. We propose a framework to learn such a 3D geometric structure directly from images in an end-to-end unsupervised manner. These discovered 3D keypoints tend to meaningfully capture robot joints as well as object movements in a consistent manner across both time and 3D space.
