Multi-person human mesh recovery (HMR) from a single image is inherently ill-posed, as multiple 3D poses can produce identical 2D projections due to depth ambiguity. Existing methods typically regress 3D translation implicitly from image features, which often leads to unreliable depth estimation. To…
Point cloud semantic segmentation is fundamental to 3D scene understanding, but dense annotation requirements limit scalability. Although recent label propagation and contrastive learning methods enhance local consistency, the incomplete object coverage caused by sparse annotations hinders global c
Point cloud single object tracking is critical in autonomous driving. However, current methods heavily rely on frame-by-frame human annotations, which do not scale well with the growing amount of unlabeled LiDAR data. In this paper, we propose the first self-supervised point cloud single object trac…
The task of vision-based 3D occupancy prediction aims to reconstruct 3D geometry and estimate its semantic classes from 2D color images, where the 2D-to-3D view transformation is an indispensable step. Most previous methods conduct forward projection, such as BEVPooling and VoxelPooling, both of whi
Generalizable surface reconstruction aims to recover the surface the scene from a sparse set of images in a feed-forward manner. Existing volume rendering-based methods evaluate numerous points along camera rays to infer the geometry, resulting in inefficient reconstruction. Recently, 3D Gaussian Sp…
Point cloud salient object detection has attracted the attention of researchers in recent years. Since existing works do not fully utilize the geometry context of 3D objects, blurry boundaries are generated when segmenting objects with complex backgrounds. In this paper, we propose a geometry-aware…
Bounding box supervision has gained considerable attention in weakly supervised 3D instance segmentation. While this approach alleviates the need for extensive point-level annotations, obtaining accurate bounding boxes in practical applications remains challenging. To this end, we explore the inaccu…
Multi-instance point cloud registration aims to estimate the pose of all instances of a model point cloud in the whole scene. Existing methods all adopt the strategy of first obtaining the global correspondence and then clustering to obtain the pose of each instance. However, due to the cluttered an…
The encoder-decoder network (ED-Net) is a commonly employed choice for existing depth completion methods but its working mechanism is ambiguous. In this paper we visualize the internal feature maps to analyze how the network densifies the input sparse depth. We find that the encoder feature of ED-Ne…
Current 3D object detection methods for indoor scenes mainly follow the voting-and-grouping strategy to generate proposals. However, most methods utilize instance-agnostic groupings, such as ball query, leading to inconsistent semantic information and inaccurate regression of the proposals. To this…
Point cloud oversegmentation is a challenging task since it needs to produce perceptually meaningful partitions (i.e., superpoints) of a point cloud. Most existing oversegmentation methods cannot efficiently generate superpoints from large-scale LiDAR point clouds due to complex and inefficient proc…
3D scene flow estimation aims to estimate point-wise motions between two consecutive frames of point clouds. Superpoints, i.e., points with similar geometric features, are usually employed to capture similar motions of local regions in 3D scenes for scene flow estimation. However, in existing method…
"Siamese network based trackers formulate 3D single object tracking as cross-correlation learning between point features of a template and a search area. Due to the large appearance variation between the template and search area during tracking, how to learn the robust cross correlation between them…
Sketch-based 3D shape retrieval is a challenging task due to the large domain discrepancy between sketches and 3D shapes. Since existing methods are trained and evaluated on the same categories, they cannot effectively recognize the categories that have not been used during training. In this paper,…
