The prevalence of accessible depth sensing and 3D laser scanning techniques has enabled the convenient acquisition of 3D dynamic point clouds, which provide efficient representation of arbitrarily-shaped objects in motion. Nevertheless, dynamic point clouds are often perturbed by noise due to hardware, software or other causes. While a plethora of methods have been proposed for static point cloud denoising, few efforts are made for the denoising of dynamic point clouds with varying number of irregularly-sampled points in each frame. In this paper, we represent dynamic point clouds naturally on graphs and address the denoising problem by inferring the underlying graph via spatio-temporal graph learning, exploiting both the intra-frame similarity and inter-frame consistency. Firstly, assuming the availability of a relevant feature vector per node, we pose spatial-temporal graph learning as optimizing a Mahalanobis distance metric $mathbf{M}$, which is formulated as the minimization of graph Laplacian regularizer. Secondly, to ease the optimization of the symmetric and positive definite metric matrix $mathbf{M}$, we decompose it into $mathbf{M}=mathbf{R}^{top}mathbf{R}$ and solve $mathbf{R}$ instead via proximal gradient. Finally, based on the spatial-temporal graph learning, we formulate dynamic point cloud denoising as the joint optimization of the desired point cloud and underlying spatio-temporal graph, which leverages both intra-frame affinities and inter-frame consistency and is solved via alternating minimization. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms independent denoising of each frame from state-of-the-art static point cloud denoising approaches.

This paper addresses the problem of compression of 3D point cloud sequences that are characterized by moving 3D positions and color attributes. As temporally successive point cloud frames are similar, motion estimation is key to effective compression
of these sequences. It however remains a challenging problem as the point cloud frames have varying numbers of points without explicit correspondence information. We represent the time-varying geometry of these sequences with a set of graphs, and consider 3D positions and color attributes of the points clouds as signals on the vertices of the graphs. We then cast motion estimation as a feature matching problem between successive graphs. The motion is estimated on a sparse set of representative vertices using new spectral graph wavelet descriptors. A dense motion field is eventually interpolated by solving a graph-based regularization problem. The estimated motion is finally used for removing the temporal redundancy in the predictive coding of the 3D positions and the color characteristics of the point cloud sequences. Experimental results demonstrate that our method is able to accurately estimate the motion between consecutive frames. Moreover, motion estimation is shown to bring significant improvement in terms of the overall compression performance of the sequence. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper that exploits both the spatial correlation inside each frame (through the graph) and the temporal correlation between the frames (through the motion estimation) to compress the color and the geometry of 3D point cloud sequences in an efficient way.
We propose the GraphSIM -- an objective metric to accurately predict the subjective quality of point cloud with superimposed geometry and color impairments. Motivated by the facts that human vision system is more sensitive to the high spatial-frequen
cy components (e.g., contours, edges), and weighs more to the local structural variations rather individual point intensity, we first extract geometric keypoints by resampling the reference point cloud geometry information to form the object skeleton; we then construct local graphs centered at these keypoints for both reference and distorted point clouds, followed by collectively aggregating color gradient moments (e.g., zeroth, first, and second) that are derived between all other points and centered keypoint in the same local graph for significant feature similarity (a.k.a., local significance) measurement; Final similarity index is obtained by pooling the local graph significance across all color channels and by averaging across all graphs. Our GraphSIM is validated using two large and independent point cloud assessment datasets that involve a wide range of impairments (e.g., re-sampling, compression, additive noise), reliably demonstrating the state-of-the-art performance for all distortions with noticeable gains in predicting the subjective mean opinion score (MOS), compared with those point-wise distance-based metrics adopted in standardization reference software. Ablation studies have further shown that GraphSIM is generalized to various scenarios with consistent performance by examining its key modules and parameters.
With the rapid development of measurement technology, LiDAR and depth cameras are widely used in the perception of the 3D environment. Recent learning based methods for robot perception most focus on the image or video, but deep learning methods for
dynamic 3D point cloud sequences are underexplored. Therefore, developing efficient and accurate perception method compatible with these advanced instruments is pivotal to autonomous driving and service robots. An Anchor-based Spatio-Temporal Attention 3D Convolution operation (ASTA3DConv) is proposed in this paper to process dynamic 3D point cloud sequences. The proposed convolution operation builds a regular receptive field around each point by setting several virtual anchors around each point. The features of neighborhood points are firstly aggregated to each anchor based on the spatio-temporal attention mechanism. Then, anchor-based 3D convolution is adopted to aggregate these anchors features to the core points. The proposed method makes better use of the structured information within the local region and learns spatio-temporal embedding features from dynamic 3D point cloud sequences. Anchor-based Spatio-Temporal Attention 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (ASTA3DCNNs) are built for classification and segmentation tasks based on the proposed ASTA3DConv and evaluated on action recognition and semantic segmentation tasks. The experiments and ablation studies on MSRAction3D and Synthia datasets demonstrate the superior performance and effectiveness of our method for dynamic 3D point cloud sequences. Our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance among the methods with dynamic 3D point cloud sequences as input on MSRAction3D and Synthia datasets.
3D dynamic point clouds provide a natural discrete representation of real-world objects or scenes in motion, with a wide range of applications in immersive telepresence, autonomous driving, surveillance, etc. Nevertheless, dynamic point clouds are of
ten perturbed by noise due to hardware, software or other causes. While a plethora of methods have been proposed for static point cloud denoising, few efforts are made for the denoising of dynamic point clouds, which is quite challenging due to the irregular sampling patterns both spatially and temporally. In this paper, we represent dynamic point clouds naturally on spatial-temporal graphs, and exploit the temporal consistency with respect to the underlying surface (manifold). In particular, we define a manifold-to-manifold distance and its discrete counterpart on graphs to measure the variation-based intrinsic distance between surface patches in the temporal domain, provided that graph operators are discrete counterparts of functionals on Riemannian manifolds. Then, we construct the spatial-temporal graph connectivity between corresponding surface patches based on the temporal distance and between points in adjacent patches in the spatial domain. Leveraging the initial graph representation, we formulate dynamic point cloud denoising as the joint optimization of the desired point cloud and underlying graph representation, regularized by both spatial smoothness and temporal consistency. We reformulate the optimization and present an efficient algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms independent denoising of each frame from state-of-the-art static point cloud denoising approaches, on both Gaussian noise and simulated LiDAR noise.
A 3D point cloud is often synthesized from depth measurements collected by sensors at different viewpoints. The acquired measurements are typically both coarse in precision and corrupted by noise. To improve quality, previous works denoise a synthesi
zed 3D point cloud a posteriori after projecting the imperfect depth data onto 3D space. Instead, we enhance depth measurements on the sensed images a priori, exploiting inherent 3D geometric correlation across views, before synthesizing a 3D point cloud from the improved measurements. By enhancing closer to the actual sensing process, we benefit from optimization targeting specifically the depth image formation model, before subsequent processing steps that can further obscure measurement errors. Mathematically, for each pixel row in a pair of rectified viewpoint depth images, we first construct a graph reflecting inter-pixel similarities via metric learning using data in previous enhanced rows. To optimize left and right viewpoint images simultaneously, we write a non-linear mapping function from left pixel row to the right based on 3D geometry relations. We formulate a MAP optimization problem, which, after suitable linear approximations, results in an unconstrained convex and differentiable objective, solvable using fast gradient method (FGM). Experimental results show that our method noticeably outperforms recent denoising algorithms that enhance after 3D point clouds are synthesized.
