Abstract
In recent years, there has been an exponentially increased amount of point clouds collected with irregular shapes in various areas. Motivated by the importance of solid modeling for point clouds, we develop a novel and efficient smoothing tool based on multivariate splines over the triangulation to extract the underlying signal and build up a 3D solid model from the point cloud. The proposed method can denoise or deblur the point cloud effectively, provide a multi-resolution reconstruction of the actual signal, and handle sparse and irregularly distributed point clouds to recover the underlying trajectory. In addition, our method provides a natural way of numerosity data reduction. We establish the theoretical guarantees of the proposed method, including the convergence rate and asymptotic normality of the estimator, and show that the convergence rate achieves optimal nonparametric convergence. We also introduce a bootstrap method to quantify the uncertainty of the estimators. Through extensive simulation studies and a real data example, we demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over traditional smoothing methods in terms of estimation accuracy and efficiency of data reduction.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR) provides an international forum for the electronic and paper publication of high-quality scholarly articles in all areas of machine learning. All published papers are freely available online.
JMLR has a commitment to rigorous yet rapid reviewing.
JMLR seeks previously unpublished papers on machine learning that contain:
new principled algorithms with sound empirical validation, and with justification of theoretical, psychological, or biological nature;
experimental and/or theoretical studies yielding new insight into the design and behavior of learning in intelligent systems;
accounts of applications of existing techniques that shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of the methods;
formalization of new learning tasks (e.g., in the context of new applications) and of methods for assessing performance on those tasks;
development of new analytical frameworks that advance theoretical studies of practical learning methods;
computational models of data from natural learning systems at the behavioral or neural level; or extremely well-written surveys of existing work.
