Research on Ground Point Cloud Segmentation Algorithm Based on Local Density Plane Fitting in Road Scene

In road scenes, the collected 3D point cloud data is usually accompanied by a large amount of interference mainly composed of ground point clouds and the property of uneven density distribution, which will bring difficulties to subsequent recognition and prediction. To address these problems, this paper proposes a ground point cloud segmentation algorithm based on local density plane fitting. Firstly, for the uneven density distribution of 3D point clouds, density segmentation is used to obtain several regions with balanced density. Then, candidate sample selection and plane validity detection are carried out for each region. The modified classical DBSCAN clustering algorithm is used to obtain effective fitting planes and perform clustering according to the fitting planes. Finally, different planes are divided according to the clustering results, and abnormal inspection is performed on the obtained results to screen out the most reasonable result. This scheme can effectively improve the scalability of the algorithm, reduce training costs, and improve deployment efficiency and universality. Experimental results show that the algorithm used in this paper has advantages compared with advanced algorithms of the same category, and can greatly reduce ground interference.
