Toward better boundary preserved supervoxel segmentation for 3D point clouds

Supervoxels provide a more natural and compact representation of three dimensional point clouds, and enable the operations to be performed on regions rather than on the scattered points. Many state-of-the-art supervoxel segmentation methods adopt fixed resolution for each supervoxel, and rely on the initialization of seed points. As a result, they may not preserve well the boundaries of the point cloud with a non-uniform density. In this paper, we present a simple but effective supervoxel segmentation method for point clouds, which formalizes supervoxel segmentation as a subset selection problem. We develop an heuristic algorithm that utilizes local information to efficiently solve the subset selection problem. The proposed method can produce supervoxels with adaptive resolutions, and dose not rely the selection of seed points. The method is fully tested on three publicly available point cloud segmentation benchmarks, which cover the major point cloud types. The experimental results show that compared with the state-of-the-art supervoxel segmentation methods, the supervoxels extracted using our method preserve the object boundaries and small structures more effectively, which is reflected in a higher boundary recall and lower under-segmentation error.
