Original abstract

3D occupancy prediction based on multi-sensor fusion,crucial for a reliable autonomous driving system, enables fine-grained understanding of 3D scenes. Previous fusion-based 3D occupancy predictions relied on depth estimation for processing 2D image features. However, depth estimation is an ill-posed problem, hindering the accuracy and robustness of these methods. Furthermore, fine-grained occupancy prediction demands extensive computational resources. To address these issues, we propose OccFusion, a depth estimation free multi-modal fusion framework. Additionally, we introduce a generalizable active training method and an active decoder that can be applied to any occupancy prediction model, with the potential to enhance their performance. Experiments conducted on nuScenes-Occupancy and nuScenes-Occ3D demonstrate our framework's superior performance. Detailed ablation studies highlight the effectiveness of each proposed method.
