contents Conventional camera-based 3D object detectors in autonomous driving are limited to recognizing a predefined set of objects, which poses a safety risk when encountering novel or unseen objects in real-world scenarios. To address this limitation, we present OS-Det3D, a two-stage training framework designed for camera-based open-set 3D object detection. In the first stage, our proposed 3D object discovery network (ODN3D) uses geometric cues from LiDAR point clouds to generate class-agnostic 3D object proposals, each of which are assigned a 3D objectness score. This approach allows the network to discover objects beyond known categories, allowing for the detection of unfamiliar objects. However, due to the absence of class constraints, ODN3D-generated proposals may include noisy data, particularly in cluttered or dynamic scenes. To mitigate this issue, we introduce a joint selection (JS) module in the second stage. The JS module uses both camera bird's eye view (BEV) feature responses and 3D objectness scores to filter out low-quality proposals, yielding high-quality pseudo ground truth for unknown objects. OS-Det3D significantly enhances the ability of camera 3D detectors to discover and identify unknown objects while also improving the performance on known objects, as demonstrated through extensive experiments on the nuScenes and KITTI datasets.
