A Comparative Study of Feature Expansion Unit for 3D Point Cloud Upsampling
share
Recently, deep learning methods have shown great success in 3D point cloud upsampling. Among these methods, many feature expansion units were proposed to complete point expansion at the end. In this paper, we compare various feature expansion units by both theoretical analysis and quantitative experiments. We show that most of the existing feature expansion units process each point feature independently, while ignoring the feature interaction among different points. Further, inspired by upsampling module of image super-resolution and recent success of dynamic graph CNN on point clouds, we propose a novel feature expansion units named ProEdgeShuffle. Experiments show that our proposed method can achieve considerable improvement over previous feature expansion units.
