MARNet: Multi-Abstraction Refinement Network for 3D Point Cloud Analysis
Representation learning from 3D point clouds is challenging due to their inherent nature of permutation invariance and irregular distribution in space. Existing deep learning methods follow a hierarchical feature extraction paradigm in which high-level abstract features are derived from low-level features...
However, they fail to exploit different granularity of information due to the limited interaction between these features. To this end, we propose Multi-Abstraction Refinement Network (MARNet) that ensures an effective exchange of information between multi-level features to gain local and global contextual cues while effectively preserving them till the final layer. We empirically show the
