改进点云投影方法,让重要目标信息不被丢弃

Contextual Range-View Projection for 3D LiDAR Point Clouds

  • 根据实例中心和类别权重调整点云投影选择策略
  • 在SemanticKITTI上实现最高3.1%的mIoU提升
  • 适合需要保留目标结构信息的自动驾驶场景

范围视图投影将3D LiDAR点云高效转换为2D图像表示,便于使用2D深度学习模型处理。但该方法存在多对一冲突问题:多个3D点映射到同一像素,需选择保留哪个点。现有方法仅保留距离最近的点,忽略语义和物体结构,导致重要上下文信息丢失。本文提出两种新机制: extit{Centerness-Aware Projection (CAP)} 和 extit{Class-Weighted-Aware Projection (CWAP)}。CAP通过点与实例中心的距离调整深度,优先保留实例中心点;CWAP引入用户定义的类别权重,灵活提升特定类别的投影表现。在SemanticKITTI数据集上的实验表明,CAP能保留更多实例点,相比基线提升最高达3.1% mIoU;CWAP可增强目标类别的性能,对其他类别影响极小。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Range-view projection provides an efficient method for transforming 3D LiDAR point clouds into 2D range image representations, enabling effective processing with 2D deep learning models. However, a major challenge in this projection is the many-to-one conflict, where multiple 3D points are mapped onto the same pixel in the range image, requiring a selection strategy. Existing approaches typically retain the point with the smallest depth (closest to the LiDAR), disregarding semantic relevance and object structure, which leads to the loss of important contextual information. In this paper, we extend the depth-based selection rule by incorporating contextual information from both instance centers and class labels, introducing two mechanisms: \textit{Centerness-Aware Projection (CAP)} and \textit{Class-Weighted-Aware Projection (CWAP)}. In CAP, point depths are adjusted according to their distance from the instance center, thereby prioritizing central instance points over noisy boundary and background points. In CWAP, object classes are prioritized through user-defined weights, offering flexibility in the projection strategy. Our evaluations on the SemanticKITTI dataset show that CAP preserves more instance points during projection, achieving up to a 3.1\% mIoU improvement compared to the baseline. Furthermore, CWAP enhances the performance of targeted classes while having a negligible impact on the performance of other classes
