MMDetection3D V0.15.0 Release

Highlights

• Support PAConv
• Support monocular/multi-view 3D detector ImVoxelNet on KITTI
• Support Transformer-based 3D detection method Group-Free-3D on ScanNet
• Add documentation for tasks including LiDAR-based 3D detection, vision-only 3D detection and point-based 3D semantic segmentation
• Add dataset documents like ScanNet
• Upgrade to use MMCV-full v1.3.8

Compatibility

In order to fix the problem that the priority of EvalHook is too low, all hook priorities have been re-adjusted in 1.3.8, so MMDetection 2.14.0 needs to rely on the latest MMCV 1.3.8 version. For related information, please refer to #1120, for related issues, please refer to #5343.
