• Abstract: Learning robust and effective representations of visual data is a fundamental task in computer vision. Traditionally, this is achieved by training models with labeled data which can be expensive to obtain. Self-supervised learning attempts to circumvent the requirement for labeled data by learning representations from raw unlabeled visual data alone. However, unlike humans who obtain rich 3D information from their binocular vision and through motion, the majority of current self-supervised methods are tasked with learning from monocular 2D image collections. This is noteworthy as it has been demonstrated that shape-centric visual processing is more robust compared to texture-biased automated methods. Inspired by this, we propose a new approach for strengthening existing self-supervised methods by explicitly enforcing a strong 3D structural prior directly into the model during training. Through experiments, across a range of datasets, we demonstrate that our 3D aware representations are more robust compared to conventional self-supervised baselines.

  Monocular 3D object detection has become a mainstream approach in automatic driving for its easy application. Most current methods still rely on 3D point cloud data for labeling the ground truths used in the training phase. We propose a new weakly supervised monocular 3D objection detection method, which can train the model with only 2D labels marked on images.
