3DRM:Pair-wise relation module for 3D object detection
share
Context has proven to be one of the most important factors in object layout reasoning for 3D scene understanding. Existing deep contextual models either learn holistic features for context encoding or rely on pre-defined scene templates for context modeling. We argue that scene understanding benefits from object relation reasoning, which is capable of mitigating the ambiguity of 3D object detections and thus helps locate and classify the 3D objects more accurately and robustly. To achieve this, we propose a novel 3D relation module (3DRM) which reasons about object relations at pair-wise levels. The 3DRM predicts the semantic and spatial relationships between objects and extracts the object-wise relation features. We demonstrate the effects of 3DRM by plugging it into proposal-based and voting-based 3D object detection pipelines, respectively. Extensive evaluations show the effectiveness and generalization of 3DRM on 3D object detection. Our source code is available at https://github.com/lanlan96/3DRM.
