• Abstract summary: We propose a new architecture, namely Hallucinated Hollow-3D R-CNN, to address the problem of 3D object detection. In our approach, we first extract the multi-view features by sequentially projecting the point clouds into the perspective view and the bird-eye view. The 3D objects are detected via a box refinement module with a novel Hierarchical Voxel RoI Pooling operation.

• Abstract: As an emerging data modal with precise distance sensing, LiDAR point clouds have been placed great expectations on 3D scene understanding. However, point clouds are always sparsely distributed in the 3D space, and with unstructured storage, which makes it difficult to represent them for effective 3D object detection. To this end, in this work, we regard point clouds as hollow-3D data and propose a new architecture, namely Hallucinated Hollow-3D R-CNN ($\text{H}^2$3D R-CNN), to address the problem of 3D object detection. In our approach, we first extract the multi-view features by sequentially projecting the point clouds into the perspective view and the bird-eye view. Then, we hallucinate the 3D representation by a novel bilaterally guided multi-view fusion block. Finally, the 3D objects are detected via a box refinement module with a novel Hierarchical Voxel RoI Pooling operation. The proposed $\text{H}^2$3D R-CNN provides a new angle to take full advantage of complementary information in the perspective view and the bird-eye view with an efficient framework. We evaluate our approach on the public KITTI Dataset and Waymo Open Dataset. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method over the state-of-the-art algorithms with respect to both effectiveness and efficiency. The code will be made available at \url{https://github.com/djiajunustc/H-23D_R-CNN}.

  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.

  LiDAR-produced point clouds are the major source for most state-of-the-art 3D object detectors. Small, distant, and incomplete objects with sparse or few points are often hard to detect. We present Sparse2Dense, a new framework to efficiently boost 3D detection performance by learning to densify point clouds in latent space.

  We introduce the concept of the multi-view point cloud (Voint cloud) representing each 3D point as a set of features extracted from several view-points. This novel 3D Voint cloud representation combines the compactness of 3D point cloud representation with the natural view-awareness of multi-view representation. We deploy a Voint neural network (VointNet) with a theoretically established functional form to learn representations in the Voint space.

  Most successful 3D detectors take the projection constraint from the 3D bounding box to the 2D box as an important component. Our method predicts the nine perspective keypoints of a 3D bounding box in image space, and then utilize the geometric relationship of 3D and 2D perspectives to recover the dimension, location, and orientation in 3D space. Our method is the first real-time system for monocular image 3D detection while achieves state-of-the-art performance on the KITTI benchmark.
