Abstract

En 中文
3D object representation learning is a fundamental challenge in computer vision to infer about the 3D world. Recent advances in deep learning have shown their efficiency in 3D object recognition, among which view-based methods have performed best so far. However, feature learning of multiple views in existing methods is mostly performed in a supervised fashion, which often requires a large amount of data labels with high costs. In contrast, self-supervised learning aims to learnmulti-view feature representations without involving labeled data. To this end, we propose a novel self-supervised framework to learn Multi-View Transformation Equivariant Representations (MV-TER), exploring the equivariant transformations of a 3D object and its projected multiple views that we derive. Specifically, we perform a 3D transformation on a 3D object and obtain multiple views before and after the transformation via projection. Then, we train a representation encoding module to capture the intrinsic 3D object representation by decoding 3D transformation parameters from the fused feature representations of multiple views before and after the transformation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposedMV-TER significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art view-based approaches in 3D object classification and retrieval tasks and show the generalization to real-world datasets. The code is available at https://github.com/gyshgx868/mvter.
