Metrics

Leaderboard ranking for this challenge is by Mean Average Precision (mAP) / L2 among "ALL_NS" (all Object Types except signs), that is, the mean over the APs of Vehicles, Cyclists, and Pedestrians. Only cameras are allowed to be used. And we enforce a causal system, i.e, for a frame at time step t, only sensor data up to time t can be used for its prediction.

Primary metric

Average Precision (AP): ∫p(r)dr where p(r)is the PR curve

IoU Overlap Threshold

Vehicle 0.7, Pedestrian 0.5, Cyclist 0.5, Sign 0.5

Sensor Names

C: All cameras
I: Invalid

Label Difficulty Breakdown

Each ground truth label is categorized into different difficulty levels (two levels for now):

  • LEVEL_1, if not marked as LEVEL_2 in the released data.

  • LEVEL_2, if marked as LEVEL_2 in the released data. When evaluating, LEVEL_2 metrics are computed by considering both LEVEL_1 and LEVEL_2 ground truth.

Metric Breakdown

The following metric breakdowns are supported:

  • OBJECT_TYPE: Breakdown by object type ("ALL_NS" refers to all objects except signs: Vehicle, Cyclist, and Pedestrian)

  • RANGE: Breakdown by the distance between object center and vehicle frame origin. [0, 35m), [35m, 50m), [50m, +inf)
