Unsupervised Feature Learning For Point Cloud By Contrasting And Clustering With Graph Convolutional Neural Network, Ling Zhang
Dissertations and Theses
Recently, deep graph neural networks (GNNs) have attracted significant attention for point cloud understanding tasks, including classification, segmentation, and detection. However, the training of such deep networks still requires a large amount of annotated data, which is both expensive and time-consuming. To alleviate the cost of collecting and annotating large-scale point cloud datasets, we propose an unsupervised learning approach to learn features from unlabeled point cloud ”3D object” dataset by using part contrasting and object clustering with GNNs. In the contrast learning step, all the samples in the 3D object dataset are cut into two parts and put into a …

Accurate crop and weed discrimination plays a critical role in addressing the challenges of weed management in agriculture. The use of herbicides is currently the most common approach to weed control. However, herbicide resistant plants have long been recognised as a major concern due to the excessive use of herbicides. Effective weed detection techniques can reduce the cost of weed management and improve crop quality and yield. A computationally efficient and robust plant classification algorithm is developed and applied to the classification of three crops: Brassica napus (canola), Zea mays (maize/corn), and radish. The developed algorithm is based on the …
