However, applying the same methods on 3D data still poses challenges due to the heavy memory requirements and the lack of structured data. Here, we propose LatticeNet, a novel approach for 3D semantic segmentation, which takes as input raw point clouds. A PointNet describes the local geometry which we embed into a sparse permutohedral lattice. The lattice allows for fast convolutions while keeping a low memory footprint. Further, we introduce DeformSlice, a novel learned data-dependent interpolation for projecting lattice features back onto the point cloud. We present results of 3D segmentation on various datasets where our method achieves state-of-the-art performance.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.05905v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1912.05905v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"latticenet-fast-point-cloud-segmentation","repo_url":"https://github.com/AIS-Bonn/lattice_net","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null},{"paper_slug":"latticenet-fast-point-cloud-segmentation","repo_url":"https://github.com/RaduAlexandru/lattice_net","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"3d-semantic-segmentation","task_name":"3D Semantic Segmentation"},{"task_slug":"point-cloud-segmentation","task_name":"Point Cloud Segmentation"},{"task_slug":"segmentation","task_name":"Segmentation"},{"task_slug":"semantic-segmentation","task_name":"Semantic Segmentation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/3d-semantic-segmentation-on-semantickitti","task":"3D Semantic Segmentation","dataset":"SemanticKITTI","model":"LatticeNet","rank_in_archive_order":32,"of":45,"metrics":{"test mIoU":"52.9%"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"syntology_url":"https://syntology.ai/paper/1912.05905","atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1912.05905","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
