Performance Evaluation of Learned 3D Features
Matching surfaces is a challenging 3D Computer Vision problem typically addressed by local features. Although a variety of 3D feature detectors and descriptors has been proposed in literature, they have seldom been proposed together and it is yet not clear how to identify the most effective detector-descriptor pair for a specific application. A promising solution is to leverage machine learning to learn the optimal 3D detector for any given 3D descriptor [15]. In this paper, we report a performance evaluation of the detector-descriptor pairs obtained by learning a paired 3D detector for the most popular 3D descriptors. In particular, we address experimental settings dealing with object recognition and surface registration.
