PointCaM: Cut-and-Mix for Open-Set Point Cloud Learning

ArXi:2212.02011v3 Announce Type: replace Point cloud learning is receiving increasing attention. However, most existing point cloud models lack the practical ability to deal with the unavoidable presence of unknown objects. This paper primarily discusses point cloud learning in open-set settings, where we train the model without data from unknown classes and identify them during the inference stage. In essence, we propose a novel Point Cut-and-Mix mechanism for solving open-set point cloud learning, comprising an Unknown-Point Simulator and an Unknown-Point Estimator module.
