Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system for three-dimensional (3D) object detection. The system includes an input interface configured to obtain 3D point data describing spatial information of a plurality of points, and a memory storing a neural network based 3D object detection model having an encoder and a decoder. The system also includes processors to perform operations including: encoding, by the encoder, a first set of coordinates into a first set of point features and a set of object features; sampling a second set of point features from the first set of point features; generating, by attention layers at the decoder, a set of attention weights by applying cross-attention over at least the set of object features and the second set of point feature, and generate, by the decoder, a predicted bounding box among the plurality of points based on at least in part on the set of attention weights.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for training video models to perform a task from an input instructional video. A procedure knowledge graph (PKG) may be generated with nodes representing procedure steps, and edges representing relationships between the steps. The PKG may be generated based on text and/or video training data which includes procedures (e.g., instructional videos). Using the PKG, a video model may be trained using the PKG to provide supervisory training signals for a number of tasks. Once the model is trained, it may be fine-tuned for a specific task which benefits from the model being trained in a way that makes the model embed procedural information when encoding videos.
