Abstract

3D vision based on irregular point sequences has gained increasing attention, with current methods depending on random or farthest point sampling. However, the existing sampling methods either measure the distance in the Euclidean space and ignore the high-level properties, or just sample from point clouds only with the largest distance. To tackle these limitations, we introduce the Expectation-Maxi mization Attention module, to find the critical subset points and cluster the other points around them. Moreover, we explore a point cloud sampling strategy to sample points based on the critical subset. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our method for several popular point cloud analysis tasks. Our module achieves the accuracy of 93.3% on ModelNet40 with only 1024 points for classification task.
