    3D pose estimation of vehicles from monocular videos using deep learning
    (2018) Cheng, Qing
    In this thesis, we present a novel approach, Deep3DP, to perform 3D pose estimation of vehicles from monocular images intended for autonomous driving scenarios. A robust deep neural network is applied to simultaneously perform 3D dimension proximity estimation, 2D part localization, and 2D part visibility prediction. In the inference phase, these learned features are fed to a pose estimation algorithm to recover the 3D location, 3D orientation, and 3D dimensions of the vehicles with the help of a set of 3D vehicle models. Our approach can perform these six tasks simultaneously in real time and handle highly occluded or truncated vehicles. The experiment results show that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on six tasks and outperforms most of the monocular methods on the challenging KITTI benchmark.
