• Abstract: Modern object detection architectures are moving towards employing self-supervised learning (SSL) to improve performance detection with related pretext tasks. Pretext tasks for monocular 3D object detection have not yet been explored yet in literature. The paper studies the application of established self-supervised bounding box recycling by labeling random windows as the pretext task. The classifier head of the 3D detector is trained to classify random windows containing different proportions of the ground truth objects, thus handling the foreground-background imbalance. We evaluate the pretext task using the RTM3D detection model as baseline, with and without the application of data augmentation. We demonstrate improvements of between 2-3 % in mAP 3D and 0.9-1.5 % BEV scores using SSL over the baseline scores. We propose the inverse class frequency re-weighted (ICFW) mAP score that highlights improvements in detection for low frequency classes in a class imbalanced dataset with long tails. We demonstrate improvements in ICFW both mAP 3D and BEV scores to take into account the class imbalance in the KITTI validation dataset. We see 4-5 % increase in ICFW metric with the pretext task.

  Few-shot class-incremental learning aims to mitigate the catastrophic forgetting issue when a model is incrementally trained on limited data. We introduce two novel components: the Redundant Feature Eliminator (RFE) and the Spatial Noise Compensator (SNC) Considering the imbalance in existing 3D datasets, we also propose new evaluation metrics that offer a more nuanced assessment of a 3D FSCIL model.

  We investigate whether pseudo-labels can provide effective supervision for the baseline models under varying settings.

  We study the pre-training paradigm for monocular 3D object detection (M3OD) We propose several strategies to further improve this baseline, which mainly include target guided semi-dense depth estimation, keypoint-aware 2D object detection, and class-level loss adjustment. Combining all the developed techniques, the obtained pre-training framework produces pre-trained backbones that improve M3OD performance significantly on the KITTI-3D and nuScenes benchmarks.
