Generating realistic full-scene point clouds using machine learning
The granted patent (Publication Number: US11922569B2) discloses a method for generating a training data set to train a machine learning model designed to process an input point cloud. The method involves obtaining an initial scene point cloud that characterizes an initial scene, collecting data for the desired location of one or more objects in the scene, and using a neural network to generate a final scene point cloud that includes the objects added at their desired locations. This final scene point cloud is then included in the training data set for the machine learning model.
Furthermore, the method includes training the machine learning model on the generated training data set and deploying the trained model on an autonomous vehicle. The process involves transforming object point clouds, determining desired locations based on object velocity and heading, and utilizing neural networks to process and predict the authenticity of the final scene point clouds. The system and computer storage media described in the patent store instructions for executing the operations related to generating the training data set, training the model, and deploying it on autonomous vehicles, showcasing a comprehensive approach to enhancing machine learning capabilities for processing point cloud data in various environments.
