This work introduces the Geometry-Aware Visual Feature Extractor (GAVE) module, which employs a multi-scale Local Linear Transformation (LLT) to fuse RGB and depth data for point cloud registration. The method achieves significant reductions in rotation, translation, and Chamfer distance errors on the ScanNet dataset, demonstrating superior performance compared to state-of-the-art baselines.
Key insights
- Geometric features can act as dynamic, content-aware convolution kernels to transform visual features, enabling more synergistic and effective modality fusion than simple concatenation or attention.
- A multi-scale approach within the feature extraction process enhances the robustness and descriptive power of the fused visual-geometric features.
- An edge-aware guidance map derived from depth information is crucial for providing content-structural information that informs the local linear transformation.
