Ensemble of shape functions for 3D object classification
Abstract
This work addresses the problem of real-time 3D shape based object class recognition, its scaling to many categories and the reliable perception of categories. A novel shape descriptor for partial point clouds based on shape functions is presented, capable of training on synthetic data and classifying objects from a depth sensor in a single partial view in a fast and robust manner. The classification task is stated as a 3D retrieval task finding the nearest neighbors from synthetically generated views of CAD-models to the sensed point cloud with a Kinect-style depth sensor. The presented shape descriptor shows that the combination of angle, point-distance and area shape functions gives a significant boost in recognition rate against the baseline descriptor and outperforms the state-of-the-art descriptors in our experimental evaluation on a publicly available dataset of real-world objects in table scene contexts with up to 200 categories.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
