Abstract
En 中文
Currently, existing point cloud semantic segmentation methods do not fully exploit surface geometric features. In particular, the depiction of object boundaries and the transition areas of curved surfaces is rather rough. On the other hand, the neighbourhood aggregation mostly follows a single strategy, making it difficult to simultaneously take into account the context and fine-grained differences and ignoring local details. To address these issues, this paper proposes a geometry-enhanced adaptive local feature aggregation network (GALA-Net). First, a geometric information embedding (GIE) module is introduced, which extracts pseudo-normal vectors and pseudo-curvatures of local point cloud regions as geometric priors, and incorporates multi-frequency sine–cosine encoding to capture multi-scale spatial relationships, yielding enhanced local geometric representations. Then, an adaptive feature fusion (AFF) module dynamically allocates fusion weights between semantic and geometric features, thereby alleviating channel coupling and neighbourhood noise amplification caused by simple concatenation. Next, a dual-path adaptive attention aggregation (DAAA) module jointly models semantic and positional attention and adaptively fuses them with max-pooled features to improve the robustness of local aggregation. In addition, a self-enhanced attention encoding (SEAE) module is designed to expand the feature representation space by extracting features through independent mapping branches and fusing them in a residual manner. The proposed model is evaluated on the S3DIS and ScanNetV2 datasets, achieving mIoU scores of 78.0% and 71.6%, respectively, which demonstrates its strong segmentation performance on indoor scenes.
