Abstract
En 中文
Semi-supervised learning (SSL), thanks to the significant reduction of data annotation costs, has been an active research topic for large-scale 3D scene understanding. However, the existing SSL-based methods suffer from severe training bias, mainly due to class imbalance and long-tail distributions of the point cloud data. As a result, they lead to a biased prediction for the tail class segmentation. In this paper, we introduce a new decoupling optimization framework, which disentangles feature representation learning and classifier in an alternative optimization manner to shift the bias decision boundary effectively. In particular, we first employ two-round pseudo-label generation to select unlabeled points across head-to-tail classes. We further introduce multi-class imbalanced focus loss to adaptively pay more attention to feature learning across head-to-tail classes. We fix the backbone parameters after feature learning and retrain the classifier using groundtruth points to update its parameters. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our method outperforming previous state-of-the-art methods on both indoor and outdoor 3D point cloud datasets ( i.e. , S3DIS, ScanNet-V2, Semantic3D, and SemanticKITTI) using 1% and 1pt evaluation.
