A Point Cloud Completion Method for Industrial Component Based on Multiple Encoders

In real-world scenarios, laser-scanned point clouds often suffer from missing data points due to occlusion and other factors, significantly impacting subsequent tasks. We propose a novel point cloud completion method based on self-attention mechanisms and multi-layer perceptrons to address this issue, building upon the PCN model. Our experimental evaluations on the PCN dataset demonstrate notable enhancements in the completion effectiveness and evaluation metrics compared to the baseline model. Additionally, focusing on the point cloud completion context for industrial components, we introduce an approach for constructing an industrial component point cloud dataset. This method leverages 3D mesh models to swiftly generate complete point clouds with uniform distribution and devoid of noise while simulating the incomplete point clouds obtained from real-world scanning scenarios. The final results fully exhibit the feasibility of this scheme, which is a strong candidate for future industrial component point cloud completion.
