• Abstract summary: We investigate the use of Approximate Convex Decompositions (ACD) as a self-supervisory signal for label-efficient learning of point cloud representations. We show that using ACD to approximate ground truth segmentation provides excellent self-supervision for learning 3D point cloud representations.

• Abstract: The problems of shape classification and part segmentation from 3D point clouds have garnered increasing attention in the last few years. Both of these problems, however, suffer from relatively small training sets, creating the need for statistically efficient methods to learn 3D shape representations. In this paper, we investigate the use of Approximate Convex Decompositions (ACD) as a self-supervisory signal for label-efficient learning of point cloud representations. We show that using ACD to approximate ground truth segmentation provides excellent self-supervision for learning 3D point cloud representations that are highly effective on downstream tasks. We report improvements over the state-of-the-art for unsupervised representation learning on the ModelNet40 shape classification dataset and significant gains in few-shot part segmentation on the ShapeNetPart dataset.Code available at https://github.com/matheusgadelha/PointCloudLearningACD

  Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has been an active research topic for large-scale 3D scene understanding. The existing SSL-based methods suffer from severe training bias due to class imbalance and long-tail distributions of the point cloud data. We introduce a new decoupling optimization framework, which disentangles feature representation learning and classifier in an alternative optimization manner to shift the bias decision boundary effectively.

  This paper presents U3DS$3$, as a step towards completely unsupervised point cloud segmentation for any holistic 3D scenes. The initial step of our proposed approach involves generating superpoints based on the geometric characteristics of each scene. We then undergo a learning process through a spatial clustering-based methodology, followed by iterative training using pseudo-labels generated in accordance with the cluster centroids.
