v1.0.0rc1 (1/4/2022)

Compatibility

  • We migrate all the mmdet3d ops to mmcv and do not need to compile them when installing mmdet3d.
  • To fix the imprecise timestamp and optimize its saving method, we reformat the point cloud data during Waymo data conversion. The data conversion time is also optimized significantly by supporting parallel processing. Please re-generate KITTI format Waymo data if necessary. See more details in the compatibility documentation.
  • We update some of the model checkpoints after the refactor of coordinate systems. Please stay tuned for the release of the remaining model checkpoints.

v1.0.0rc0 (18/2/2022)

Compatibility

  • We refactor our three coordinate systems to make their rotation directions and origins more consistent, and further remove unnecessary hacks in different datasets and models. Therefore, please re-generate data infos or convert the old version to the new one with our provided scripts. We will also provide updated checkpoints in the next version. Please refer to the compatibility documentation for more details.
  • Unify the camera keys for consistent transformation between coordinate systems on different datasets. The modification changes the key names to lidar2img, depth2img, cam2img, etc., for easier understanding. Customized codes using legacy keys may be influenced.
