In many practical applications, 3D point cloud analysis requires rotation invariance. In this paper, we present a learnable descriptor invariant under 3D rotations and reflections, i.e., the O(3) actions, utilizing the recently introduced…

In contrast to the somewhat abstract, group theoretical approach adopted by many papers, our work provides a new and more intuitive derivation of steerable convolutional neural networks in $d$ dimensions. This derivation is based on…

Point clouds are the native output of many real-world 3D sensors. To borrow the success of 2D convolutional network architectures, a majority of popular 3D perception models voxelize the points, which can result in a loss of local geometric…

Deep learning with 3D data such as reconstructed point clouds and CAD models has received great research interests recently. However, the capability of using point clouds with convolutional neural network has been so far not fully explored.…

Existing networks directly learn feature representations on 3D point clouds for shape analysis. We argue that 3D point clouds are highly redundant and hold irregular (permutation-invariant) structure, which makes it difficult to achieve…
