• Abstract summary: This paper proposes a learning framework COTReg to predict correspondences of 3D point cloud registration. We transform the two matchings into a Wasserstein distance-based and a Gromov-Wasserstein distance-based optimizations. Our correspondence prediction pipeline can be easily integrated into either learning-based features like FCGF or traditional descriptors like FPFH.

• Abstract: Generating a set of high-quality correspondences or matches is one of the most critical steps in point cloud registration. This paper proposes a learning framework COTReg by jointly considering the pointwise and structural matchings to predict correspondences of 3D point cloud registration. Specifically, we transform the two matchings into a Wasserstein distance-based and a Gromov-Wasserstein distance-based optimizations, respectively. Thus the task of establishing the correspondences can be naturally reshaped to a coupled optimal transport problem. Furthermore, we design a network to predict the confidence score of being an inlier for each point of the point clouds, which provides the overlap region information to generate correspondences. Our correspondence prediction pipeline can be easily integrated into either learning-based features like FCGF or traditional descriptors like FPFH. We conducted comprehensive experiments on 3DMatch, KITTI, 3DCSR, and ModelNet40 benchmarks, showing the state-of-art performance of the proposed method.

  Estimating 3D motions for point clouds is challenging, since a point cloud is unordered and its density is significantly non-uniform. We propose a novel architecture named Sparse Convolution-Transformer Network (SCTN) that equips the sparse convolution with the transformer. We show that the learned relation-based contextual information is rich and helpful for matching corresponding points, benefiting scene flow estimation.
