Introduction

Point cloud computation has become an increasingly more important workload for autonomous driving and other applications. Unlike dense 2D computation, point cloud convolution has sparse and irregular computation patterns and thus requires dedicated inference system support with specialized high-performance kernels. While existing point cloud deep learning libraries have developed different dataflows for convolution on point clouds, they assume a single dataflow throughout the execution of the entire model. In this work, we systematically analyze and improve existing dataflows. Our resulting system, TorchSparse, achieves 2.9x, 3.3x, 2.2x and 1.7x measured end-to-end speedup on an NVIDIA A100 GPU over the state-of-the-art MinkowskiEngine, SpConv 1.2, TorchSparse (MLSys) and SpConv v2 in inference respectively.

Installation

We provide pre-built torchsparse v2.1.0 packages (recommended) with different PyTorch and CUDA versions to simplify the building for the Linux system.

Ensure at least PyTorch 1.9.0 is installed:

python -c "import torch; print(torch.__version__)"
>>> 1.10.0

If you want to use TorchSparse with gpus, please ensure PyTorch was installed with CUDA:
```
python -c "import torch; print(torch.version.cuda)"
>>> 11.3
```

Then the right TorchSparse wheel can be found and installed by running the installation script:

python -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mit-han-lab/torchsparse/master/install.py)"

If Pypi server does not work as expected, no worries, you can still manually download the wheels. The wheels are listed in this website. One can utilize our installation script to automatically determine the version number used to index the wheels. For example, if you use PyTorch 1.11.0, CUDA 11.5, the version number will end up to be 2.1.0+torch111cu115. You can then select the proper wheel according to your Python version.

You may also alternatively install our library from source via:

python setup.py install

in the repository, or using

pip install git+https://github.com/mit-han-lab/torchsparse.git

without the need to clone the repository.

Benchmarks

Inference benchmarks

TorchSparse significantly outperforms existing point cloud inference engines in both 3D object detection and LiDAR segmentation benchmarks across three generations of GPU architecture (Pascal, Turing and Ampere) and all precisions (FP16, TF32, FP32). It is up to 1.7x faster than state-of-the-art SpConv 2.3.5 and is up to 2.2x faster than
TorchSparse-MLsys on cloud GPUs. It also improves the latency of SpConv 2.3.5 by 1.25× on Orin.

Training benchmarks

TorchSparse achieves superior mixed-precision training speed compared with MinkowskiEngine, TorchSparse-MLSys and SpConv 2.3.5. Specifically, it is 1.16x faster on Tesla A100, 1.27x faster on RTX 2080 Ti than state-of-the-art SpConv 2.3.5. It also significantly outperforms MinkowskiEngine by 4.6-4.8x across seven benchmarks on A100 and 2080 Ti. Measured with batch size = 2.
