Matterport3D: Learning from RGB-D Data in Indoor Environments
Access to large, diverse RGB-D datasets is critical for training RGB-D scene
understanding algorithms. However, existing datasets still cover only a limited
number of views or a restricted scale of spaces. In this paper, we introduce
Matterport3D, a large-scale RGB-D dataset containing 10,800 panoramic views
from 194,400 RGB-D images of 90 building-scale scenes. Annotations are provided
with surface reconstructions, camera poses, and 2D and 3D semantic
segmentations. The precise global alignment and comprehensive, diverse
panoramic set of views over entire buildings enable a variety of supervised and
self-supervised computer vision tasks, including keypoint matching, view
overlap prediction, normal prediction from color, semantic segmentation, and
region classification
Scale-Adaptive Neural Dense Features: Learning via Hierarchical Context Aggregation
How do computers and intelligent agents view the world around them? Feature
extraction and representation constitutes one the basic building blocks towards
answering this question. Traditionally, this has been done with carefully
engineered hand-crafted techniques such as HOG, SIFT or ORB. However, there is
no ``one size fits all'' approach that satisfies all requirements. In recent
years, the rising popularity of deep learning has resulted in a myriad of
end-to-end solutions to many computer vision problems. These approaches, while
successful, tend to lack scalability and can't easily exploit information
learned by other systems. Instead, we propose SAND features, a dedicated deep
learning solution to feature extraction capable of providing hierarchical
context information. This is achieved by employing sparse relative labels
indicating relationships of similarity/dissimilarity between image locations.
The nature of these labels results in an almost infinite set of dissimilar
examples to choose from. We demonstrate how the selection of negative examples
during training can be used to modify the feature space and vary it's
properties. To demonstrate the generality of this approach, we apply the
proposed features to a multitude of tasks, each requiring different properties.
This includes disparity estimation, semantic segmentation, self-localisation
and SLAM. In all cases, we show how incorporating SAND features results in
better or comparable results to the baseline, whilst requiring little to no
additional training. Code can be found at:
