MonoDETRNext: Next-generation Accurate and Efficient Monocular 3D Object Detection Method
<|reference_start|>MonoDETRNext: Next-generation Accurate and Efficient Monocular 3D Object Detection Method: Monocular vision-based 3D object detection is crucial in various sectors, yet existing methods face significant challenges in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency. Building on the successful strategies in 2D detection and depth estimation, we propose MonoDETRNext, which seeks to optimally balance precision and processing speed. Our methodology includes the development of an efficient hybrid visual encoder, enhancement of depth prediction mechanisms, and introduction of an innovative query generation strategy, augmented by an advanced depth predictor. Building on MonoDETR, MonoDETRNext introduces two variants: MonoDETRNext-F, which emphasizes speed, and MonoDETRNext-A, which focuses on precision. We posit that MonoDETRNext establishes a new benchmark in monocular 3D object detection and opens avenues for future research. We conducted an exhaustive evaluation demonstrating the model's superior performance against existing solutions. Notably, MonoDETRNext-A demonstrated a 4.60% improvement in the AP3D metric on the KITTI test benchmark over MonoDETR, while MonoDETRNext-F showed a 2.21% increase. Additionally, the computational efficiency of MonoDETRNext-F slightly exceeds that of its predecessor.<|reference_end|>
