Three-Dimensional Object Detection - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240135576 titled 'Three-Dimensional Object Detection

Simplified Explanation

The patent application proposes a solution for three-dimensional (3D) object detection by extracting feature representations from point cloud data related to a 3D object and generating a detection result based on correlations between candidate 3D objects and the points.

  • Feature representations are extracted from point cloud data related to a 3D object.
  • Initial feature representations of candidate 3D objects are determined based on the feature representations of the points.
  • Detection result for the 3D object is generated by determining self-correlations between candidate 3D objects and cross-correlations between the points and candidate 3D objects.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in various fields such as autonomous driving, robotics, augmented reality, and virtual reality for accurate and efficient 3D object detection.

Problems Solved

1. Accurate localization and recognition of 3D objects in a 3D scene without grouping points into candidate objects. 2. Efficient and reliable detection of objects in complex environments.

Original Abstract Submitted

according to implementations of the subject matter described herein, a solution is proposed for three-dimensional (3d) object detection. in this solution, feature representations of a plurality of points are extracted from point cloud data related to a 3d object. initial feature representations of a set of candidate 3d objects are determined based on the feature representations of the plurality of points. based on the feature representations of the plurality of points and the initial feature representations of the set of candidate 3d objects, a detection result for the 3d object is generated by determining self-correlations between the set of candidate 3d objects and cross-correlations between the plurality of points and the set of candidate 3d objects. in this way, without grouping points into candidate 3d objects, the 3d object in a 3d scene can be localized and recognized based on the self-correlations and cross-correlations.
