グラフ誘導変形による点群補完

原文アブストラクト

For a long time, the point cloud completion task has been regarded as a pure generation task. After obtaining the global shape code through the encoder, a complete point cloud is generated using the shape priorly learnt by the networks. However, such models are undesirably biased towards prior average objects and inherently limited to fit geometry details. In this paper, we propose a Graph-Guided Deformation Network, which respectively regards the input data and intermediate generation as controlling and supporting points, and models the optimization guided by a graph convolutional network(GCN) for the point cloud completion task. Our key insight is to simulate the least square Laplacian deformation process via mesh deformation methods, which brings adaptivity for modeling variation in geometry details. By this means, we also reduce the gap between the completion task and the mesh deformation algorithms. As far as we know, we are the first to refine the point cloud completion task by mimicing traditional graphics algorithms with GCN-guided deformation. We have conducted extensive experiments on both the simulated indoor dataset ShapeNet, outdoor dataset KITTI, and our self-collected autonomous driving dataset Pandar40. The results show that our method outperforms the existing state-of-the-art algorithms in the 3D point cloud completion task.
