• Abstract summary: We propose a framework to study how to leverage constraints between 2D and 3D domains without requiring any 3D labels. Specifically, we design a feature-level constraint to align LiDAR and image features based on object-aware regions. Second, the output-level constraint is developed to enforce the overlap between 2D and projected 3D box estimations. Third, the training-level constraint is utilized by producing accurate and consistent 3D pseudo-labels that align with the visual data.

• Abstract: Weakly supervised 3D object detection aims to learn a 3D detector with lower annotation cost, e.g., 2D labels. Unlike prior work which still relies on few accurate 3D annotations, we propose a framework to study how to leverage constraints between 2D and 3D domains without requiring any 3D labels. Specifically, we employ visual data from three perspectives to establish connections between 2D and 3D domains. First, we design a feature-level constraint to align LiDAR and image features based on object-aware regions. Second, the output-level constraint is developed to enforce the overlap between 2D and projected 3D box estimations. Finally, the training-level constraint is utilized by producing accurate and consistent 3D pseudo-labels that align with the visual data. We conduct extensive experiments on the KITTI dataset to validate the effectiveness of the proposed three constraints. Without using any 3D labels, our method achieves favorable performance against state-of-the-art approaches and is competitive with the method that uses 500-frame 3D annotations. Code and models will be made publicly available at https://github.com/kuanchihhuang/VG-W3D.

  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.
