一、回顾PointNet
原理:
1、learn a spatial encoding of each point
2、aggregate all individual point features to a global point cloud signature(a single max pooling)
优点:an effective architecture to process an unordered set of points for semantic feature extraction
缺点:
1、does not capture local structure
2、没有考虑到不同的密度
方法:
point set {x1, x2, ..., xn}
γ and h are usually multi-layer perceptron (MLP) networks
h can be interpreted as the spatial encoding of a point
