PointAttN: You Only Need Attention for Point Cloud Completion

Point cloud completion referring to completing 3D shapes from partial 3D point clouds is a fundamental problem for 3D point cloud analysis tasks. Benefiting from the development of deep neural networks, researches on point cloud completion have made great progress in recent years. However, the explicit local region partition like kNNs involved in existing methods makes them sensitive to the density distribution of point clouds. Moreover, it serves limited receptive fields that prevent capturing features from long-range context information. To solve the problems, we leverage the cross-attention and self-attention mechanisms to design novel neural network for processing point cloud in a per-point manner to eliminate kNNs. Two essential blocks Geometric Details Perception (GDP) and Self-Feature Augment (SFA) are proposed to establish the short-range and long-range structural relationships directly among points in a simple yet effective way via attention mechanism. Then based on GDP and SFA, we construct a new framework with popular encoder-decoder architecture for point cloud completion. The proposed framework, namely PointAttN, is simple, neat and effective, which can precisely capture the structural information of 3D shapes and predict complete point clouds with highly detailed geometries. Experimental results demonstrate that our PointAttN outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a large margin on popular benchmarks like Completion3D and PCN.
