• Abstract: We present NeRF-Det, a novel method for indoor 3D detection with posed RGB images as input. Unlike existing indoor 3D detection methods that struggle to model scene geometry, our method makes novel use of NeRF in an end-to-end manner to explicitly estimate 3D geometry, thereby improving 3D detection performance. Specifically, to avoid the significant extra latency associated with per-scene optimization of NeRF, we introduce sufficient geometry priors to enhance the generalizability of NeRF-MLP. Furthermore, we subtly connect the detection and NeRF branches through a shared MLP, enabling an efficient adaptation of NeRF to detection and yielding geometry-aware volumetric representations for 3D detection. Our method outperforms state-of-the-arts by 3.9 mAP and 3.1 mAP on the ScanNet and ARKITScenes benchmarks, respectively. We provide extensive analysis to shed light on how NeRF-Det works. As a result of our joint-training design, NeRF-Det is able to generalize well to unseen scenes for object detection, view synthesis, and depth estimation tasks without requiring per-scene optimization.

  We propose MonoNeRD, a novel detection framework that can infer dense 3D geometry and occupancy.

  Fast stereo based 3D object detectors lag far behind high-precision oriented methods in accuracy. We argue that the main reason is the missing or poor 3D geometry feature representation in fast stereo based methods. The proposed EGFN outperforms YOLOStsereo3D, the advanced fast method, by 5.16% on mAP$_3d$ at the cost of merely additional 12 ms.
