Segmenting 3D Hybrid Scenes via Zero-Shot Learning
share
This work is to tackle the problem of point cloud semantic segmentation for 3D hybrid scenes under the framework of zero-shot learning. Here by hybrid, we mean the scene consists of both seen-class and unseen-class 3D objects, a more general and realistic setting in application. To our knowledge, this problem has not been explored in the literature. To this end, we propose a network to synthesize point features for various classes of objects by leveraging the semantic features of both seen and unseen object classes, called PFNet. The proposed PFNet employs a GAN architecture to synthesize point features, where the semantic relationship between seen-class and unseen-class features is consolidated by adapting a new semantic regularizer, and the synthesized features are used to train a classifier for predicting the labels of the testing 3D scene points. Besides we also introduce two benchmarks for algorithmic evaluation by re-organizing the public S3DIS and ScanNet datasets under six different data splits. Experimental results on the two benchmarks validate our proposed method, and we hope our introduced two benchmarks and methodology could be of help for more research on this new direction.
