We present a novel framework that jointly detects and tracks 3D vehicle bounding boxes.
Our approach leverages 3D pose estimation to learn 2D patch association overtime and uses temporal information from tracking to
obtain stable 3D estimation.

In ICCV, 2019.
To get started as quickly as possible, follow the instructions in this section.
This should allow you train a model from scratch, test our pretrained models, and reproduce our evaluation results.
For more detailed instructions, please refer to DOCUMENTATION.md
.
For a quick start, we suggest using GTA val
set as a starting point. You can get all needed data via the following script.
# We recommand using GTA `val` set (using `mini` flag) to get familiar with the data pipeline first, then using `all` flag to obtain all the data
python loader/download.py mini
Or you can also download each files one by one:
- GTA Dataset
Download and extract our GTA dataset and put it under
./3d-tracking/data/gta5_tracking/{split}/{type}
. Where split = {train, val, test} and type = {image, label}
python loader/download.py {type} {split}
- Detection
Download our detection results and put it under
./3d-tracking/data/gta5_tracking/
.
python loader/download.py detection
Generates BDD format meta data using python loader/gen_pred.py gta val
- Pre-train Model
Download our pretrain model and put it under
./3d-tracking/checkpoint/
.
python loader/download.py checkpoint
- Installation and dataset preparation are both finished
- Given object proposal bounding boxes and 3D center from faster-rcnn.pytorch directory
For running a whole pipeline (3D estimation and tracking):
# Step 00 - Data Preprocessing
# Collect features into json files (check variables in the code)
python loader/gen_pred.py gta val
# And similarly,
python loader/gen_pred.py gta test
# For KITTI, it's the same procedure
python loader/gen_dataset.py kitti train
python loader/gen_pred.py kitti train
# Step 01 - 3D Estimation
# Running single task scripts mentioned below and training by yourself
# or alternatively, using multi-GPUs and multi-processes to run through all 100 sequences
python run_estimation.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
# Step 02 - 3D Tracking and Evaluation
# 3D helps tracking part. For tracking evaluation,
# using multi-GPUs and multi-processes to run through all 100 sequences
python run_tracking.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
# Step 03 - 3D AP Evaluation
# Convert tracking output to evaluation format
python tools/convert_estimation_bdd.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
python tools/convert_tracking_bdd.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
# Evaluation of 3D Estimation
python tools/eval_dep_bdd.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
# 3D helps Tracking part
python tools/eval_mot_bdd.py --gt_path output/616_030_gta_val_set --pd_path output/616_030_gta_val_set/kf3doccdeep_age20_aff0.1_hit0_100m_803
# Tracking helps 3D part
cd tools/object-ap-eval/
python test_det_ap.py gta val --session 616 --epoch 030
Note: If facing
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'utils'
problem, please addPYTHONPATH=.

For running a whole pipeline of 3D estimation (training and testing):
# In Step 01, run the following scripts instead
# Make sure your args for training, testing
# Training (Optional):
bash scripts/train_gta.sh
# Testing
bash scripts/test_gta.sh
