论文摘要
由于经过验证的2D检测技术的适用性，大多数当前点云检测器都广泛采用了鸟类视图（BEV）。但是，现有方法通过简单地沿高度尺寸折叠的体素或点特征来获得BEV特征，从而导致3D空间信息的严重损失。为了减轻信息损失，我们提出了一个基于多级特征维度降低策略（称为MDRNET）的新颖点云检测网络。在MDRNET中，空间感知的维度降低（SDR）旨在在体素至BEV特征转换过程中动态关注对象的宝贵部分。此外，提出了多级空间残差（MSR），以融合BEV特征图中的多级空间信息。关于Nuscenes的广泛实验表明，该提出的方法的表现优于最新方法。该代码将在出版时可用。
Bird's eye view (BEV) is widely adopted by most of the current point cloud detectors due to the applicability of well-explored 2D detection techniques. However, existing methods obtain BEV features by simply collapsing voxel or point features along the height dimension, which causes the heavy loss of 3D spatial information. To alleviate the information loss, we propose a novel point cloud detection network based on a Multi-level feature dimensionality reduction strategy, called MDRNet. In MDRNet, the Spatial-aware Dimensionality Reduction (SDR) is designed to dynamically focus on the valuable parts of the object during voxel-to-BEV feature transformation. Furthermore, the Multi-level Spatial Residuals (MSR) is proposed to fuse the multi-level spatial information in the BEV feature maps. Extensive experiments on nuScenes show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. The code will be available upon publication.
