Unsupervised Feedforward Feature (UFF) Learning for Point Cloud Classification and Segmentation
英文摘要：
In contrast to supervised backpropagation-based feature learning in deep neural networks (DNNs), an unsupervised feedforward feature (UFF) learning scheme for joint classification and segmentation of 3D point clouds is proposed in this work. The UFF method exploits statistical correlations of points in a point cloud set to learn shape and point features in a one-pass feedforward manner through a cascaded encoder-decoder architecture. It learns global shape features through the encoder and local point features through the concatenated encoder-decoder architecture. The extracted features of an input point cloud are fed to classifiers for shape classification and part segmentation. Experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the UFF method. For shape classification, the UFF is superior to existing unsupervised methods and on par with state-of-the-art DNNs. For part segmentation, the UFF outperforms semi-supervised methods and performs slightly worse than DNNs.
