📝 摘要(中文)
当前的3D语义分割方法通常依赖有限的标注,难以处理大规模、不规则和无序的3D点云数据。现有方法多集中于3D领域,未能充分利用2D和3D数据的互补性。本文提出一种新方法,通过引入由2D基础模型生成的分割掩码,最大化稀疏3D标注的效用,并通过建立3D场景与2D视图之间的几何对应关系,将2D分割掩码传播到3D空间。我们进一步应用基于置信度和不确定性的连续性正则化,选择可靠的伪标签,从而显著增强可用标签池,最终提升3D弱监督分割的性能。

📄 摘要(原文)
Current methods for 3D semantic segmentation propose training models with limited annotations to address the difficulty of annotating large, irregular, and unordered 3D point cloud data. They usually focus on the 3D domain only, without leveraging the complementary nature of 2D and 3D data. Besides, some methods extend original labels or generate pseudo labels to guide the training, but they often fail to fully use these labels or address the noise within them. Meanwhile, the emergence of comprehensive and adaptable foundation models has offered effective solutions for segmenting 2D data. Leveraging this advancement, we present a novel approach that maximizes the utility of sparsely available 3D annotations by incorporating segmentation masks generated by 2D foundation models. We further propagate the 2D segmentation masks into the 3D space by establishing geometric correspondences between 3D scenes and 2D views. We extend the highly sparse annotations to encompass the areas delineated by 3D masks, thereby substantially augmenting the pool of available labels. Furthermore, we apply confidence- and uncertainty-based consistency regularization on augmentations of the 3D point cloud and select the reliable pseudo labels, which are further spread on the 3D masks to generate more labels. This innovative strategy bridges the gap between limited 3D annotations and the powerful capabilities of 2D foundation models, ultimately improving the performance of 3D weakly supervised segmentation.
