用深度学习从激光雷达点云推断林地体素内物质占比,解决数据不均衡问题。

Deep Imbalanced Multi-Target Regression: 3D Point Cloud Voxel Content Estimation in Simulated Forests

  • 基于核点卷积与密度相关性加权,处理多目标回归中的样本不均衡问题。
  • 小体素(0.25米)误差显著高于大体素(2米),尤其在树冠层中。
  • 适用于森林三维点云模拟数据的细粒度内容估计,适合遥感与林业研究者。

体素化能有效降低激光雷达(LiDAR)数据的计算成本,但会损失细粒度结构信息。本研究探讨是否可从数字成像与遥感图像生成(DIRSIG)软件生成的高层级体素化LiDAR点云中,推断低层级体素内容信息,如体素内目标(树皮、树叶、土壤、杂项)的占有率。提出一种结合核点卷积(KPConv)的多目标回归方法,采用基于密度的相关性(DBR)代价敏感学习处理类别不平衡,并使用加权均方误差(MSE)、Focal Regression(FocalR)和正则化优化模型。通过敏感性分析考察体素尺寸(0.25–2米)的影响,发现大体素(如2米)因变异性降低而误差更低,小体素(如0.25或0.5米)在树冠层误差更高,表明精细分辨率下内容估计更困难。该研究填补了深度不平衡学习在多目标回归及模拟森林3D LiDAR点云中的空白。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Voxelization is an effective approach to reduce the computational cost of processing Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data, yet it results in a loss of fine-scale structural information. This study explores whether low-level voxel content information, specifically target occupancy percentage within a voxel, can be inferred from high-level voxelized LiDAR point cloud data collected from Digital Imaging and remote Sensing Image Generation (DIRSIG) software. In our study, the targets include bark, leaf, soil, and miscellaneous materials. We propose a multi-target regression approach in the context of imbalanced learning using Kernel Point Convolutions (KPConv). Our research leverages cost-sensitive learning to address class imbalance called density-based relevance (DBR). We employ weighted Mean Saquared Erorr (MSE), Focal Regression (FocalR), and regularization to improve the optimization of KPConv. This study performs a sensitivity analysis on the voxel size (0.25 - 2 meters) to evaluate the effect of various grid representations in capturing the nuances of the forest. This sensitivity analysis reveals that larger voxel sizes (e.g., 2 meters) result in lower errors due to reduced variability, while smaller voxel sizes (e.g., 0.25 or 0.5 meter) exhibit higher errors, particularly within the canopy, where variability is greatest. For bark and leaf targets, error values at smaller voxel size datasets (0.25 and 0.5 meter) were significantly higher than those in larger voxel size datasets (2 meters), highlighting the difficulty in accurately estimating within-canopy voxel content at fine resolutions. This suggests that the choice of voxel size is application-dependent. Our work fills the gap in deep imbalance learning models for multi-target regression and simulated datasets for 3D LiDAR point clouds of forests.
