A point cloud segmentation network with hybrid convolution and differential channels by Xiaoyan Zhang, Yantao Bu

“…Specifically, we design a hybrid convolutional feature extraction (HCFE) module for processing 3D semantic information and spatial information independently, using different convolution kernels to obtain the subtle geometric structure differences between points. Then, we propose a Differential Channel Feature Interaction (DCFI) Module to enhance the local details and global channel information through Differential Convolution (DCU) and a Simplified Channel Attention Mechanism (S_ECA), respectively, and adaptively fuse the two types of information by Dynamic Interaction Mechanism (DIM), achieving their cooperative optimization. …”
