3D Point clouds are a rich source of information that enjoy growing
popularity in the vision community. However, due to the sparsity of their
representation, learning models based on large point clouds is still a
challenge. In this work, we introduce Graphite, a GRAPH-Induced feaTure
Extraction pipeline, a simple yet powerful feature transform and keypoint
detector. Graphite enables intensive down-sampling of point clouds with
keypoint detection accompanied by a descriptor. We construct a generic
graph-based learning scheme to describe point cloud regions and extract salient
points. To this end, we take advantage of 6D pose information and metric
learning to learn robust descriptions and keypoints across different scans. We
Reformulate the 3D keypoint pipeline with graph neural networks which allow
efficient processing of the point set while boosting its descriptive power
which ultimately results in more accurate 3D registrations. We demonstrate our
lightweight descriptor on common 3D descriptor matching and point cloud
registration benchmarks and achieve comparable results with the state of the
art. Describing 100 patches of a point cloud and detecting their keypoints
takes only ~0.018 seconds with our proposed network.
