Question about PointRCNN training strategy #486

Closed HannahJHan closed 2 years ago

HannahJHan commented 3 years ago

Thanks for your wonderful work~

I am puzzled on the training strategy. The PointRCNN paper says that

The two stage sub-networks of PointRCNN are trained separately.

, and the official code repository does indeed train separately.

But the code here(OpenPCDet) seems like the entire PointRCNN network is trained end-to-end. Am I wrong? What factors have you improved to make it trainable end-to-end? Please help me, thank you soooo much!

I have the same question. I believe the number of epochs configured for training involves both stages but it would be great to know if that is really correct. Thanks in advance!

PointRCNN in OpenPCDet is trained jointly (unlike two stage training in the original code) with 80 epochs.
