• Title: Deep Weighted Consensus: Dense correspondence confidence maps for 3D shape registration
• Authors: Dvir Ginzburg and Dan Raviv
• Abstract summary: We present a new paradigm for rigid alignment between point clouds based on learnable weighted consensus. We claim that we can align point clouds out of sampled matched points according to confidence level derived from a dense, soft alignment map. The pipeline is differentiable, and converges under large rotations in the full spectrum of SO(3), even with high noise levels.

• Abstract: We present a new paradigm for rigid alignment between point clouds based on learnable weighted consensus which is robust to noise as well as the full spectrum of the rotation group. Current models, learnable or axiomatic, work well for constrained orientations and limited noise levels, usually by an end-to-end learner or an iterative scheme. However, real-world tasks require us to deal with large rotations as well as outliers and all known models fail to deliver. Here we present a different direction. We claim that we can align point clouds out of sampled matched points according to confidence level derived from a dense, soft alignment map. The pipeline is differentiable, and converges under large rotations in the full spectrum of SO(3), even with high noise levels. We compared the network to recently presented methods such as DCP, PointNetLK, RPM-Net, PRnet, and axiomatic methods such as ICP and Go-ICP. We report here a fundamental boost in performance.

  3D point clouds deep learning is a promising field of research that allows a neural network to learn features of point clouds directly. We propose a simple yet effective convolution operator that enhances feature distinction by designing powerful rotation invariant features from the local regions. Our network architecture can capture both local and global context by simply tuning the neighborhood size in each convolution layer.
