Spherical Semantic Segmentation

Semantic segmentation for robotic systems can enable a wide range of applications, from self-driving cars to augmented reality systems. LiDAR scans can have various different characteristics and properties, such as number of beams, vertical FoV, angular resolution. Our method provides a framework to seamlessly train on pointcloud data from various different LiDAR sensor models and types.

Installation

S2AE was written using PyTorch (http://pytorch.org/) and depends on a few libraries.
