In this paper, we aim at addressing two critical issues in the 3D detection task, including the exploitation of multiple sensors~(namely LiDAR point cloud and camera image), as well as the inconsistency between the localization and classification confidence. To this end, we propose a novel fusion module to enhance the point features with semantic image features in a point-wise manner without any image annotations. Besides, a consistency enforcing loss is employed to explicitly encourage the consistency of both the localization and classification confidence. We design an end-to-end learnable framework named EPNet to integrate these two components. Extensive experiments on the KITTI and SUN-RGBD datasets demonstrate the superiority of EPNet over the state-of-the-art methods. Codes and models are available at: url{https://github.com/happinesslz/EPNet}.

3D object detection is vital for many robotics applications. For tasks where a 2D perspective range image exists, we propose to learn a 3D representation directly from this range image view. To this end, we designed a 2D convolutional network architecture that carries the 3D spherical coordinates of each pixel throughout the network. Its layers can consume any arbitrary convolution kernel in place of the default inner product kernel and exploit the underlying local geometry around each pixel. We outline four such kernels: a dense kernel according to the bag-of-words paradigm, and three graph kernels inspired by recent graph neural network advances: the Transformer, the PointNet, and the Edge Convolution. We also explore cross-modality fusion with the camera image, facilitated by operating in the perspective range image view. Our method performs competitively on the Waymo Open Dataset and improves the state-of-the-art AP for pedestrian detection from 69.7% to 75.5%. It is also efficient in that our smallest model, which still outperforms the popular PointPillars in quality, requires 180 times fewer FLOPS and model parameters
Lidar based 3D object detection and classification tasks are essential for autonomous driving(AD). A lidar sensor can provide the 3D point cloud data reconstruction of the surrounding environment. However, real time detection in 3D point clouds still needs a strong algorithmic. This paper proposes a 3D object detection method based on point cloud and image which consists of there parts.(1)Lidar-camera calibration and undistorted image transformation. (2)YOLO-based detection and PointCloud extraction, (3)K-means based point cloud segmentation and detection experiment test and evaluation in depth image. In our research, camera can capture the image to make the Real-time 2D object detection by using YOLO, we transfer the bounding box to node whose function is making 3d object detection on point cloud data from Lidar. By comparing whether 2D coordinate transferred from the 3D point is in the object bounding box or not can achieve High-speed 3D object recognition function in GPU. The accuracy and precision get imporved after k-means clustering in point cloud. The speed of our detection method is a advantage faster than PointNet.
In this paper, we present an Intersection-over-Union (IoU) guided two-stage 3D object detector with a voxel-to-point decoder. To preserve the necessary information from all raw points and maintain the high box recall in voxel based Region Proposal Network (RPN), we propose a residual voxel-to-point decoder to extract the point features in addition to the map-view features from the voxel based RPN. We use a 3D Region of Interest (RoI) alignment to crop and align the features with the proposal boxes for accurately perceiving the object position. The RoI-Aligned features are finally aggregated with the corner geometry embeddings that can provide the potentially missing corner information in the box refinement stage. We propose a simple and efficient method to align the estimated IoUs to the refined proposal boxes as a more relevant localization confidence. The comprehensive experiments on KITTI and Waymo Open Dataset demonstrate that our method achieves significant improvements with novel architectures against the existing methods. The code is available on Github URLfootnote{url{https://github.com/jialeli1/From-Voxel-to-Point}}.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have emerged as a powerful strategy for most object detection tasks on 2D images. However, their power has not been fully realised for detecting 3D objects in point clouds directly without converting them to regular grids. Existing state-of-art 3D object detection methods aim to recognize 3D objects individually without exploiting their relationships during learning or inference. In this paper, we first propose a strategy that associates the predictions of direction vectors and pseudo geometric centers together leading to a win-win solution for 3D bounding box candidates regression. Secondly, we propose point attention pooling to extract uniform appearance features for each 3D object proposal, benefiting from the learned direction features, semantic features and spatial coordinates of the object points. Finally, the appearance features are used together with the position features to build 3D object-object relationship graphs for all proposals to model their co-existence. We explore the effect of relation graphs on proposals appearance features enhancement under supervised and unsupervised settings. The proposed relation graph network consists of a 3D object proposal generation module and a 3D relation module, makes it an end-to-end trainable network for detecting 3D object in point clouds. Experiments on challenging benchmarks ( SunRGB-Dand ScanNet datasets ) of 3D point clouds show that our algorithm can perform better than the existing state-of-the-art methods.
Lidar based 3D object detection and classification tasks are essential for automated driving(AD). A Lidar sensor can provide the 3D point coud data reconstruction of the surrounding environment. But the detection in 3D point cloud still needs a strong algorithmic challenge. This paper consists of three parts.(1)Lidar-camera calib. (2)YOLO, based detection and PointCloud extraction, (3) k-means based point cloud segmentation. In our research, Camera can capture the image to make the Real-time 2D Object Detection by using YOLO, I transfer the bounding box to node whose function is making 3d object detection on point cloud data from Lidar. By comparing whether 2D coordinate transferred from the 3D point is in the object bounding box or not, and doing a k-means clustering can achieve High-speed 3D object recognition function in GPU.
