• Abstract summary: It has been difficult for volumetric super-resolution to utilize the recent advances in transformer-based models seen in 2D super-resolution. We propose a multi-scale transformer-based model based on hierarchical attention blocks combined with carrier tokens at multiple scales to overcome this. We experimentally compare our method, MTVNet, against state-of-the-art volumetric super-resolution models on five 3D datasets.

• Abstract: Until now, it has been difficult for volumetric super-resolution to utilize the recent advances in transformer-based models seen in 2D super-resolution. The memory required for self-attention in 3D volumes limits the receptive field. Therefore, long-range interactions are not used in 3D to the extent done in 2D and the strength of transformers is not realized. We propose a multi-scale transformer-based model based on hierarchical attention blocks combined with carrier tokens at multiple scales to overcome this. Here information from larger regions at coarse resolution is sequentially carried on to finer-resolution regions to predict the super-resolved image. Using transformer layers at each resolution, our coarse-to-fine modeling limits the number of tokens at each scale and enables attention over larger regions than what has previously been possible. We experimentally compare our method, MTVNet, against state-of-the-art volumetric super-resolution models on five 3D datasets demonstrating the advantage of an increased receptive field. This advantage is especially pronounced for images that are larger than what is seen in popularly used 3D datasets. Our code is available at https://github.com/AugustHoeg/MTVNet

  We introduce Any2Point, a parameter-efficient method to empower any-modality large models (vision, language, audio) for 3D understanding.

Our network achieves strong accuracy on general 3D recognition tasks with 7.3x speed-up than previous 3D Transformers.

  We propose to solve the multi-view crowd counting task through 3D feature fusion with 3D scene-level density maps. Compared to 2D fusion, the 3D fusion extracts more information of the people along the z-dimension (height), which helps to address the scale variations across multiple views. The 3D density maps still preserve the 2D density maps property that the sum is the count, while also providing 3D information about the crowd density.
