• Abstract: Autonomous driving is the key technology of intelligent logistics in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). In autonomous driving, the appearance of incomplete point clouds losing geometric and semantic information is inevitable owing to limitations of occlusion, sensor resolution, and viewing angle when the Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) is applied. The emergence of incomplete point clouds, especially incomplete vehicle point clouds, would lead to the reduction of the accuracy of autonomous driving vehicles in object detection, traffic alert, and collision avoidance. Existing point cloud completion networks, such as Point Fractal Network (PF-Net), focus on the accuracy of point cloud completion, without considering the efficiency of inference process, which makes it difficult for them to be deployed for vehicle point cloud repair in autonomous driving. To address the above problem, in this paper, we propose an efficient deep learning approach to repair incomplete vehicle point cloud accurately and efficiently in autonomous driving. In the proposed method, an efficient downsampling algorithm combining incremental sampling and one-time sampling is presented to improves the inference speed of the PF-Net based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, a real dataset is used, and an autonomous driving scene is created, where three incomplete vehicle point clouds with 5 different sizes are set for three autonomous driving situations. The improved PF-Net can achieve the speedups of over 19x with almost the same accuracy when compared to the original PF-Net. Experimental results demonstrate that the improved PF-Net can be applied to efficiently complete vehicle point clouds in autonomous driving.
