Occ3D: A Large-Scale 3D Occupancy Prediction Benchmark for Autonomous Driving
share
Robotic perception requires the modeling of both 3D geometry and semantics. Existing methods typically focus on estimating 3D bounding boxes, neglecting finer geometric details and struggling to handle general, out-of-vocabulary objects. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a novel task for 3D occupancy prediction, which aims to estimate the detailed occupancy and semantics of objects from multi-view images. To facilitate this task, we develop a label generation pipeline that produces dense, visibility-aware labels for a given scene. This pipeline includes point cloud aggregation, point labeling, and occlusion handling. We construct two benchmarks based on the Waymo Open Dataset and the nuScenes Dataset, resulting in the Occ3D-Waymo and Occ3D-nuScenes benchmarks. Lastly, we propose a model, dubbed Coarse-to-Fine Occupancy (CTF-Occ) network, which demonstrates superior performance in the 3D occupancy prediction task. This approach addresses the need for finer geometric understanding in a coarse-to-fine fashion. The code, data, and benchmarks are released at https://tsinghua-mars-lab.github.io/Occ3D/.
