ARKitScenes: A Diverse Real-World Dataset For 3D Indoor Scene Understanding Using Mobile RGB-D Data — Baruch et al. (2021) (arXiv:2111.08897, 2021)
What this evaluates
Evaluates 3D indoor scene understanding by testing object detection (single-frame and whole-scene) and color-guided depth upsampling on real-world mobile RGB-D data captured with consumer LiDAR devices.
Datasets
- ARKitScenes — total ?; splits: train (323868), test (41139), val (5600)
Metrics
mAP (mean average precision)(primary) — range: [0, 1]- Mean of average precision scores computed across all 17 furniture categories for 3D oriented bounding boxes.
L1— range: meters- Mean absolute difference between predicted and ground truth depth values per pixel.
RMSE— range: meters- Square root of the mean squared difference between predicted and ground truth depth values per pixel.
Input / output format
Input: RGB-D frames or point clouds with XYZ coordinates and features for detection; low-resolution depth maps paired with high-resolution color images for upsampling.
Output: 3D oriented bounding boxes (center, size, category) for detection; high-resolution depth map for upsampling.
Scoring recipe
def compute_mAP(preds, gts, iou_thresh=0.25):
ap_scores = []
for cat in categories:
tp, fp = 0, 0
for p, g in zip(preds[cat], gts[cat]):
if match_iou(p, g) >= iou_thresh: tp += 1
else: fp += 1
ap_scores.append(tp / (tp + fp))
return sum(ap_scores) / len(ap_scores)
def compute_l1_rmse(pred_d, gt_d, mask=None):
diff = pred_d - gt_d
if mask is not None: diff = diff[mask]
l1 = np.mean(np.abs(diff))
rmse = np.sqrt(np.mean(diff**2))
return l1, rmse
Common pitfalls
- 65% of frames become empty after filtering; only boxes with ≥5 corners in the camera frustum and ≥10 points are kept.
- Real-world depth maps contain occlusions and artifacts (specular/transparent objects), requiring masking or adapted losses (e.g., SSIM cannot be used directly as a full-reference metric).
- Long videos are artificially subsampled to a maximum of 300 frames per scan to prevent model bias toward longer sequences.
Evidence (verbatim from paper)
VoteNet[4] is able to achieve mAP (mean average precision) of 0.358, while extra primitive supervision [43] and attention model [30] can further improve the overall performance to 0.383 and 0.419 respectively.
