• Abstract: Camera-based bird-eye-view (BEV) perception paradigm has made significant progress in the autonomous driving field. Under such a paradigm, accurate BEV representation construction relies on reliable depth estimation for multi-camera images. However, existing approaches exhaustively predict depths for every pixel without prioritizing objects, which are precisely the entities requiring detection in the 3D space. To this end, we propose IA-BEV, which integrates image-plane instance awareness into the depth estimation process within a BEV-based detector. First, a category-specific structural priors mining approach is proposed for enhancing the efficacy of monocular depth generation. Besides, a self-boosting learning strategy is further proposed to encourage the model to place more emphasis on challenging objects in computation-expensive temporal stereo matching. Together they provide advanced depth estimation results for high-quality BEV features construction, benefiting the ultimate 3D detection. The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performances on the challenging nuScenes benchmark, and extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our designs.

  Bird-Eye-View (BEV) is one of the most widely-used scene representations for visual perception in Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) Recent diffusion-based methods offer a promising approach to uncertainty modeling for visual perception but fail to effectively detect small objects in the large coverage of the BEV. Here, we address this problem by combining the diffusion paradigm with current state-of-the-art 3D object detectors in BEV.

  Multi-view 3D object detection is becoming popular in autonomous driving due to its high effectiveness and low cost. Most of the current state-of-the-art detectors follow the query-based bird's-eye-view (BEV) paradigm. We propose an Object-Centric query-BEV detector OCBEV, which can carve the temporal and spatial cues of moving targets more effectively.

  We first analyze the causes of the domain gap for the MV3D-Det task. To acquire a robust depth prediction, we propose to decouple the depth estimation from intrinsic parameters of the camera. We modify the focal length values to create multiple pseudo-domains and construct an adversarial training loss to encourage the feature representation to be more domain-agnostic.
