Note: See more details about metrics and data split on Waymo [HERE](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmdetection3d/tree/master/configs/pointpillars). For implementation details, we basically follow the original settings. All of these results are achieved without bells-and-whistles, e.g. ensemble, multi-scale training and test augmentation.
