LaserMix for Semi-Supervised LiDAR Semantic Segmentation

About

LaserMix is a semi-supervised learning (SSL) framework designed for LiDAR semantic segmentation. It leverages the strong spatial prior of driving scenes to construct low-variation areas via laser beam mixing, and encourages segmentation models to make confident and consistent predictions before and after mixing.

Updates

  • [2024.05] - Our improved framework, LaserMix++ πŸš€, is avaliable on arXiv.
  • [2024.01] - The toolkit tailored for The RoboDrive Challenge has been released. πŸ› οΈ
  • [2023.12] - We are hosting The RoboDrive Challenge at ICRA 2024. πŸš™
  • [2023.12] - Introducing FRNet, an efficient and effective real-time LiDAR segmentation model that achieves promising semi-supervised learning results on SemanticKITTI and nuScenes. Code and checkpoints are available for downloading.
  • [2023.03] - Intend to test the robustness of your LiDAR semantic segmentation models? Check our recent work, πŸ€– Robo3D, a comprehensive suite that enables OoD robustness evaluation of 3D segmentors on our newly established datasets: SemanticKITTI-C, nuScenes-C, and WOD-C.
  • [2023.03] - LaserMix was selected as a ✨ highlight ✨ at CVPR 2023 (top 10% of accepted papers).
  • [2023.02] - LaserMix was accepted to CVPR 2023! πŸŽ‰
  • [2023.02] - LaserMix has been integrated into the MMDetection3D codebase! Check this PR in the dev-1.x branch to know more details. 🍻
  • [2023.01] - As suggested, we will establish a sequential track taking into account the LiDAR data collection nature in our semi-supervised LiDAR semantic segmentation benchmark. The results will be gradually updated in RESULT.md.
  • [2022.12] - We support a wider range of LiDAR segmentation backbones, including RangeNet++, SalsaNext, FIDNet, CENet, MinkowskiUNet, Cylinder3D, and SPVCNN, under both fully- and semi-supervised settings. The checkpoints will be available soon!
  • [2022.12] - The derivation of spatial-prior-based SSL is available here. Take a look! πŸ“
  • [2022.08] - LaserMix achieves 1st place among the semi-supervised semantic segmentation leaderboards of nuScenes, SemanticKITTI, and ScribbleKITTI, based on Paper-with-Code. πŸ“Š
  • [2022.08] - We provide a video demo for visual comparisons on the SemanticKITTI val set. Take a look!
  • [2022.07] - Our paper is available on arXiv, click here to check it out. Code will be available soon!
