FORE-MAMBA3D: MAMBA-BASED FOREGROUND-ENHANCED ENCODING FOR 3D OBJECT DETECTION
Unlocking Superior 3D Object Detection with Foreground-Enhanced Mamba
Previous Mamba-based 3D object detection methods encode the entire non-empty voxel sequence, leading to abundant useless background information and performance degradation due to response attenuation and restricted context representation in linear modeling for foreground-only sequences.
Executive Impact & Core Breakthroughs
Our novel Fore-Mamba3D backbone addresses this by focusing on foreground enhancement. It samples top-k foreground voxels based on predicted scores, then flattens them via Hilbert space-filling curves with multiple rotations to alleviate regional truncation.
To overcome response attenuation across instances, we introduce a regional-to-global sliding window (RGSW) strategy for effective information propagation. Additionally, a Semantic-Assisted and State Spatial Fusion Module (SASFMamba) enriches contextual representation by enhancing semantic and geometric awareness, achieving non-causal encoding.
Fore-Mamba3D delivers superior performance across various benchmarks, demonstrating its effectiveness in 3D object detection by emphasizing foreground-only encoding and mitigating distance-based and causal dependencies in linear autoregression models, while also significantly reducing computational overhead.

Impact of Regional-to-Global Sliding Window (RGSW)
The RGSW strategy effectively propagates information across regions, addressing response attenuation in foreground voxels. This table showcases its contribution to overall performance.
| Strategy | Regional Token Insertion | Global Sliding Window (t=2) | KITTI Car Mod AP (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline (Hilbert Flattening) | No | No | 79.4 |
| Regional (Local Token) | Yes | No | 80.6 |
| Regional + Global (t=2) | Yes | Yes | 82.2 |
Integrating both regional token insertion and global sliding windows (t=2) leads to a substantial improvement in detection performance by enabling richer context interaction.
