More datasets

Hi OpenPCDDet community,

In the readme there is a statement: We are actively updating this repo currently, and more datasets and models will be supported soon. Contributions are also welcomed.

Do you have any roadmaps / current list of work-in-progress features? I am interested in Pandaset support, is anyone working on it? Any tips, where to start?

Best, D

You could refer to the recently added Waymo Dataset to see how to add new datasets. Simply speaking, you just need to:

1. organize your data with training / validation.
2. transform the point clouds to our unified normative coordinate at the getitem.
3. call the prepare_data function.
4. receive the predicted results.
5. write your evaluation codes.

We will add Lyft to our codebase soon. Pandaset is also under our consideration. Thanks for your advice, we wiil consider to add a work-in-progress features.
