Multi-View Deep Learning for Consistent Semantic Mapping with RGB-D Cameras
Visual scene understanding is an important capability that enables robots to
purposefully act in their environment. In this paper, we propose a novel
approach to object-class segmentation from multiple RGB-D views using deep
learning. We train a deep neural network to predict object-class semantics that
is consistent from several view points in a semi-supervised way. At test time,
the semantics predictions of our network can be fused more consistently in
semantic keyframe maps than predictions of a network trained on individual
views. We base our network architecture on a recent single-view deep learning
approach to RGB and depth fusion for semantic object-class segmentation and
enhance it with multi-scale loss minimization. We obtain the camera trajectory
using RGB-D SLAM and warp the predictions of RGB-D images into ground-truth
annotated frames in order to enforce multi-view consistency during training. At
test time, predictions from multiple views are fused into keyframes. We propose
and analyze several methods for enforcing multi-view consistency during
training and testing. We evaluate the benefit of multi-view consistency
training and demonstrate that pooling of deep features and fusion over multiple
views outperforms single-view baselines on the NYUDv2 benchmark for semantic
segmentation. Our end-to-end trained network achieves state-of-the-art
performance on the NYUDv2 dataset in single-view segmentation as well as
multi-view semantic fusion.Comment: the 2017 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and

Fine-To-Coarse Global Registration of RGB-D Scans
RGB-D scanning of indoor environments is important for many applications,
including real estate, interior design, and virtual reality. However, it is
still challenging to register RGB-D images from a hand-held camera over a long
video sequence into a globally consistent 3D model. Current methods often can
lose tracking or drift and thus fail to reconstruct salient structures in large
environments (e.g., parallel walls in different rooms). To address this
problem, we propose a "fine-to-coarse" global registration algorithm that
leverages robust registrations at finer scales to seed detection and
enforcement of new correspondence and structural constraints at coarser scales.
To test global registration algorithms, we provide a benchmark with 10,401
manually-clicked point correspondences in 25 scenes from the SUN3D dataset.
During experiments with this benchmark, we find that our fine-to-coarse
algorithm registers long RGB-D sequences better than previous methods
DA-RNN: Semantic Mapping with Data Associated Recurrent Neural Networks
3D scene understanding is important for robots to interact with the 3D world
in a meaningful way. Most previous works on 3D scene understanding focus on
recognizing geometrical or semantic properties of the scene independently. In
this work, we introduce Data Associated Recurrent Neural Networks (DA-RNNs), a
novel framework for joint 3D scene mapping and semantic labeling. DA-RNNs use a
new recurrent neural network architecture for semantic labeling on RGB-D
videos. The output of the network is integrated with mapping techniques such as
KinectFusion in order to inject semantic information into the reconstructed 3D
scene. Experiments conducted on a real world dataset and a synthetic dataset
with RGB-D videos demonstrate the ability of our method in semantic 3D scene
mapping.Comment: Published in RSS 201
