• Abstract summary: ImGeoNet is an image-based 3D object detection framework that models a 3D space by an image-induced geometry-aware voxel representation. We conduct experiments on three indoor datasets, namely ARKitScenes, ScanNetV2, and ScanNet200. Our studies indicate that our proposed image-induced geometry-aware representation can enable image-based methods to attain superior detection accuracy.

• Abstract: We propose ImGeoNet, a multi-view image-based 3D object detection framework that models a 3D space by an image-induced geometry-aware voxel representation. Unlike previous methods which aggregate 2D features into 3D voxels without considering geometry, ImGeoNet learns to induce geometry from multi-view images to alleviate the confusion arising from voxels of free space, and during the inference phase, only images from multiple views are required. Besides, a powerful pre-trained 2D feature extractor can be leveraged by our representation, leading to a more robust performance. To evaluate the effectiveness of ImGeoNet, we conduct quantitative and qualitative experiments on three indoor datasets, namely ARKitScenes, ScanNetV2, and ScanNet200. The results demonstrate that ImGeoNet outperforms the current state-of-the-art multi-view image-based method, ImVoxelNet, on all three datasets in terms of detection accuracy. In addition, ImGeoNet shows great data efficiency by achieving results comparable to ImVoxelNet with 100 views while utilizing only 40 views. Furthermore, our studies indicate that our proposed image-induced geometry-aware representation can enable image-based methods to attain superior detection accuracy than the seminal point cloud-based method, VoteNet, in two practical scenarios: (1) scenarios where point clouds are sparse and noisy, such as in ARKitScenes, and (2) scenarios involve diverse object classes, particularly classes of small objects, as in the case in ScanNet200.

  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.
