Point cloud normal estimation via low-rank subspace clustering
چکیده انگلیسی


• We present a new low-rank subspace clustering framework with prior knowledge.
• An unsupervised learning process is designed to obtain the prior knowledge for normal estimation.
• The anisotropic neighborhood of each candidate feature points is segmented into several isotropic subneighborhoods by the framework.
• A consistent subneighborhood is identified and used for accurate normal estimation.

In this paper, we present a robust normal estimation algorithm based on the low-rank subspace clustering technique. The main idea is based on the observation that compared with the points around sharp features, it is relatively easier to obtain accurate normals for the points within smooth regions. The points around sharp features and smooth regions are identified by covariance analysis of their neighborhoods. The neighborhood of a point in a smooth region can be well approximated by a plane. For a point around sharp features, some of its neighbors may be in smooth regions. These neighbor points’ normals are estimated by principal component analysis, and used as prior knowledge to carry out neighborhood clustering. An unsupervised learning process is designed to represent the prior knowledge as a guiding matrix. Then we segment the anisotropic neighborhood into several isotropic neighborhoods by low-rank subspace clustering with the guiding matrix, and identify a consistent subneighborhood for the current point. Hence the normal of the current point near sharp features is estimated as the normal of a plane fitting the consistent subneighborhood. Our method is capable of estimating normals accurately even in the presence of noise and anisotropic samplings, while preserving sharp features within the original point data. We demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method on a variety of examples.
