Abstract
Recently, point cloud domain adaptation (DA) practices have been implemented to improve the generalization ability of deep learning models on point cloud data. However, variations across domains often result in decreased performance of models trained on different distributed data sources. Previous studies have focused on output-level domain alignment to address this challenge. But this approach may increase the amount of errors experienced when aligning different domains, particularly for targets that would otherwise be predicted incorrectly. Therefore, in this study, we propose an input-level discretization-based matching to enhance the generalization ability of DA. Specifically, an efficient geometric deformation depth decoupling network (3DeNet) is implemented to learn the knowledge from the source domain and embed it into an implicit feature space, which facilitates the effective constraint of unsupervised predictions for downstream tasks. Secondly, we demonstrate that the sparsity within the implicit feature space varies between domains, rendering domain differences difficult to support. Consequently, we match sets of neighboring points with different densities and biases by differentiating the adaptive densities. Finally, inter-domain differences are aligned by constraining the loss originating from and between the target domains. We conduct experiments on point cloud DA datasets PointDA-10 and PointSegDA, achieving advanced results (over 1.2% and 1% on average).
