Vision 3D

A clean, easy-to-use PyTorch library for lidar perception.

Project goals

• Emphasis on clean code (no 1,000 LOC functions).
• General 3D detection library (easy to extend to new models and datasets).

Status

• This project is not under active development.
• Implementation of SECOND is complete.
• Implementation of PV-RCNN is partially completed.
• These forks (one, two) have shown some promise in training on other datasets (NuScenes, and proprietary lidar data).

Usage

See inference.py and train.py. To train, need to first start a visdom server using command visdom to enable train loss monitoring. (Requires visdom python package to be installed).

Installation

See install.md.
