you can copy it into this class and make the modifications, just like you would do with a function you would like to change in a class.

HOOKS -
Objects which operate on actively running code, such as logging information at the end of an epoch.
Hooks are defined in mmdet3d/engine. The purpose of hooks is often to add new features to a predefined python module.
EX: You want to be able to add additional data to your dataloader when training a model every 3 epochs. You could modify the source code for training, or you could make a
hook which adds that functionality on top of your base code. Then all you have to do is init that hook when defining the parameters of your code, or not init it if you want the
base funtionality.
Here, they are used for logging information such as speed to train an epoch.

Reproduces the problem - error message
No error message; issue is even after 20 epochs, the result is extremely poor mAP and NMS. Loss gets down to about 6.x.
Additional information
- I expected training results to be similar to MIT's camera-only results.
- I used the nuScenes dataset
- I suspect there is an issue in my setup in the configuration file. I have included the configuration I have been using for image-only BEVFusion.
hi @ymlab @abubake,
I have a question regarding the training:
I am curious how much time the training takes per epoch and how many gpus do you use? I am particularly interested in the lidar only training if you have any experience with that.
Hi, training with 4 gpu’s took several hours per epoch, both for camera and when I tried with lidar only. I don’t remember the exact time per epoch, but it was about 4-5 days for 20 epochs. Which is roughly 4.5 to 6 hours per epoch.

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience @abubake, it helps! were you able to reproduce good results (comparable to the paper) with lidar only training?
I plan to work with this repository for my thesis, and don't want to waste time if the code is not working as expected. therefore any feedback is valuable for me :)
@gorkemguzeler the repo is working as expected for me. Haven't trained lidar-only but I got 65 mAP after 3 epochs of training the bevfusion model with the lidar-only base. Oh and it took 2h per epoch on 8x 3090 with bs 2 and lr scaling enabled.
Btw we are in the same boat. I am also doing my thesis on multimodal learning :)
@mdessl Hi I'm also working on multimodal 3d det. I'm curious by bs 2 you mean 2 batch per GPU or 2 batch for the whole 8 GPUs? As 3080 seems only have 12G of mem. I have trained the BEVFusion of this repo on 2xA5000 with bs of 4 (with lr scale) and cannot match the result of 71.4 NDS. After using Gradient Accumulation to simulate bs 32, the performance is much better to approximately 70.9 NDS.
For the multimodal, my concern is that the camera branch of this repo is too dependent on LiDAR, as they use DepthLSS instead of original LSS transform.
@curiosity654 ohh sry it was a typo. I meant 3090 (24G RAM), so bs 2 per GPU.
Do you think the issue could have to do with the batchnorm layers? I think BN is not so compatible with gradient accumulation and I am not sure what you could do about it.
@mdessl , thanks a lot for the feedback 👍
oh, good luck on your thesis :)
interesting discussion here, I got following problem with camera-only model: KeyError: 'GeneralizedResNet is not in the mmdet3d::model registry. Please check whether the value of GeneralizedResNet is correct or it was registered as expected. More details can be found at https://mmengine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced_tutorials/config.html#import-the-custom-module'. Which is because, the GeneralizedResNet is not implemented in this offical repo. Did you adapted it yourself?
@abubake @CesarLiu Do you have a camera-only BEVFusion configuration that meets the paper's metrics and can be provided? Thank you very much.
Hey, I was looking at this code and noticed the following:
eta_min=0.85 / 0.95 It seems like it’s trying to calculate eta_min, but I thought eta_min should be a fixed value. So, should I just pick 0.85 or 0.95 for eta_min? Or am I missing something here?
Could you share your code repository? I've recently encountered a similar issue, and I'd like to use your repository to debug and see if it's the same problem I'm facing.
