• Abstract summary: We propose to utilize a novel set of features describing the local neighborhood on a per-point basis via first and second order statistics as input for a simple and compact classification network. Leveraging this feature embedding enables our algorithm to outperform the state-of-the-art techniques in terms of quality and processing time.

• Abstract: Extracting high-level structural information from 3D point clouds is challenging but essential for tasks like urban planning or autonomous driving requiring an advanced understanding of the scene at hand. Existing approaches are still not able to produce high-quality results consistently while being fast enough to be deployed in scenarios requiring interactivity. We propose to utilize a novel set of features describing the local neighborhood on a per-point basis via first and second order statistics as input for a simple and compact classification network to distinguish between non-edge, sharp-edge, and boundary points in the given data. Leveraging this feature embedding enables our algorithm to outperform the state-of-the-art techniques in terms of quality and processing time.

  This work presents a framework for dealing with 3D scene understanding when the labeled scenes are quite limited. To extract knowledge for novel categories from the pre-trained vision-language models, we propose a hierarchical feature-aligned pre-training and knowledge distillation strategy. Experiments with both indoor and outdoor scenes demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach in both data-efficient learning and open-world few-shot learning.

  Mesh and Point Cloud simplification methods aim to reduce the complexity of 3D models while retaining visual quality and relevant salient features.
