To develop an open-vocabulary method for 3D aerial point cloud classification that does not rely on predefined classes or labeled data.
Introduced a training-free open-vocabulary segmentation technique.
Leveraged 2D imagery for open-vocabulary object recognition.
Projected and refined object detections into 3D space.
Benchmarked against supervised neural networks using quantitative metrics.
Demonstrated effective semantic labeling without annotated data or fixed categories.
Highlighted strengths and limitations compared to state-of-the-art supervised methods.
Proved to be adaptable and scalable for urban 3D mapping.
