Fusion Segmentation Network Guided by Adaptive Sampling Radius and Channel Attention Mechanism Module for MLS Point Clouds
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- A module for adaptively varying the sampling radius is proposed to enhance the high-dimensional features of the sampled points and improve the semantic segmentation accuracy of inhomogeneous sparse MLS point clouds, which can solve the problem that road point clouds data was sparse and inhomogeneous in deep learning network.
- To train and test the proposed model, we constructed a new MLS road point clouds dataset for training, testing, and evaluating the deep learning network.
- Based on the addition of the new sampling module, the attention mechanism module is added to build a new deep learning network, and ablation experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the new sampling module with the mechanism.
