DeepLA-Net: Very Deep Local Aggregation Networks for Point Cloud Analysis
Due to the irregular and disordered data structure in 3D point clouds, prior works have focused on designing more sophisticated local representation methods to capture these complex local patterns. However, the recognition performance has saturated over the past few years, indicating that increasingly complex and redundant designs no longer make improvements to local learning. This phenomenon prompts us to diverge from the trend in 3D vision and instead pursue an alternative and successful solution: deeper neural networks. In this paper, we propose DeepLA-Net, a series of very deep networks for point cloud analysis. The key insight of our approach is to exploit a small but mighty local learning block, which reduces 10xfewer FLOPs, enabling the construction of very deep networks. Furthermore, we design a training supervision strategy to ensure smooth gradient backpropagation and optimization in very deep networks. We construct the DeepLA-Net family with a depth of up to 120 blocks --- at least 5xdeeper than recent methods --- trained on a single RTX 3090. An ensemble of the DeepLA-Net achieves state-of-the-art performance on classification and segmentation tasks of S3DIS Area5 (+2.2% mIoU), ScanNet test set (+1.6% mIoU), ScanObjectNN (+2.1% OA), and ShapeNetPart (+0.9% cls.mIoU).
