RCBi-CenterNet: An Absolute Pose Policy for 3D Object Detection in Autonomous Driving
3D Object detection is a critical mission of the perception system of a self-driving vehicle.Existing bounding box-based methods are hard to train due to the need to remove duplicated detections in the post-processing stage.In this paper, we propose a center point-based deep neural network (DNN) architecture named RCBi-CenterNet that predicts the a
