TCC-Det: Temporarily Consistent Cues for Weakly-Supervised 3D Detection

Jan Skvrna, Lukás Neumann

Abstract: Accurate object detection in LiDAR point clouds is a key prerequisite of robust and safe autonomous driving and robotics applications. Training the 3D object detectors currently involves the need to manually annotate vasts amounts of training data, which is very time-consuming and costly. As a result, the amount of annotated training data readily available is limited, and moreover these annotated datasets likely do not contain edge-case or otherwise rare instances, simply because the probability of them occurring in such a small dataset is low.
