• Abstract: The point-based occupancy prediction paradigm has achieved an attractive trade-off between accuracy and efficiency by modeling 3D space sparsely. However, its predictions inherently mismatch the dense voxel-based occupancy required by self-driving systems, necessitating hand-crafted heuristics during training and inference that limit final performance. To overcome these limitations, we propose OPUS-V2, a novel framework built upon the pioneering OPUS (occupancy prediction using a sparse set) point-based approach. OPUS-V2 incorporates a lightweight point-voxel transformation (PVT) module behind the decoder to adaptively map sparse predictions into the dense voxel space, eliminating the need for suboptimal operations and improving model accuracy. Furthermore, our architecture decouples feature and occupancy generation processes, allowing OPUS-V2 to adapt to arbitrary occupancy resolutions. OPUS-V2 achieves a state-of-the-art rayIoU of 44.0 on the Occ3D dataset. On the more challenging OpenOccupancy dataset, it attains a competitive 16.4 mIoU while running in real time at 20.6 FPS.
