π Description
Superpoint Transformer
<p align="center"> <img width="80%" src="./media/teaser_spt.png"> </p>Superpoint Transformer (SPT) is a superpoint-based transformer π€ architecture that efficiently β‘ performs semantic segmentation on large-scale 3D scenes. This method includes a fast algorithm that partitions 𧩠point clouds into a hierarchical superpoint structure, as well as a self-attention mechanism to exploit the relationships between superpoints at multiple scales.

SuperCluster
<p align="center"> <img width="80%" src="./media/teaser_supercluster.png"> </p>SuperCluster is a superpoint-based architecture for panoptic segmentation of (very) large 3D scenes π based on SPT. We formulate the panoptic segmentation task as a scalable superpoint graph clustering task. To this end, our model is trained to predict the input parameters of a graph optimization problem whose solution is a panoptic segmentation π‘. This formulation allows supervising our model with per-node and per-edge objectives only, circumventing the need for computing an actual panoptic segmentation and associated matching issues at train time. At inference time, our fast parallelized algorithm solves the small graph optimization problem, yielding object instances π₯. Due to its lightweight backbone and scalable formulation, SuperCluster can process scenes of unprecedented scale at once, on a single GPU π, with fewer than 1M parameters π¦.

Note: By default, your logs will automatically be uploaded to Weights and Biases, from where you can track and compare your experiments. Other loggers are available in
configs/logger/
. See Lightning-Hydra for more information on the logging options.
PyTorch Lightning predict()
Both SPT and SuperCluster inherit from LightningModule
and implement predict_step()
, which permits using
PyTorch Lightning's Trainer.predict()
mechanism.
from src.models.semantic import SemanticSegmentationModule
from src.datamodules.s3dis import S3DISDataModule
from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
# Predict behavior for semantic segmentation on S3DIS
dataloader = S3DISDataModule(...)
model = SemanticSegmentationModule(...)
trainer = Trainer(...)
batch, output = trainer.predict(model=model, dataloaders=dataloader)
This, however, still requires you to instantiate a Trainer
, a DataLoader
,
and a model with relevant parameters.
For a little more simplicity, all our datasets inherit from
LightningDataModule
and implement predict_dataloader()
by pointing to their
corresponding test set by default. This permits directly passing a datamodule to
PyTorch Lightning's Trainer.predict()
without explicitly instantiating a DataLoader
.
from src.models.semantic import SemanticSegmentationModule
from src.datamodules.s3dis import S3DISDataModule
from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
# Predict behavior for semantic segmentation on S3DIS
datamodule = S3DISDataModule(...)
model = SemanticSegmentationModule(...)
trainer = Trainer(...)
batch, output = trainer.predict(model=model, datamodule=datamodule)
For more details on how to instantiate these, as well as the output format
of our model, we strongly encourage you to play with our
demo notebook and have a look at the src/eval.py
script.
Full-resolution predictions
By design, our models only need to produce predictions for the superpoints of the $P_1$ partition level during training. All our losses and metrics are formulated as superpoint-wise objectives. This conveniently saves compute and memory at training and evaluation time.
At inference time, however, we often need the predictions on the voxels of the $P_0$ partition level or on the full-resolution input point cloud. To this end, we provide helper functions to recover voxel-wise and full-resolution predictions.
See our demo notebook for more details on these.
Using a pretrained model on custom data
For running a pretrained model on your own point cloud, please refer to our tutorial slides, notebook, and video.
Parametrizing the superpoint partition on custom data
Our hierarchical superpoint partition is computed at preprocessing time. Its construction involves several steps whose parametrization must be adapted to your specific dataset and task. Please refer to our tutorial slides, notebook, and video for better understanding this process and tuning it to your needs.
Parameterizing SuperCluster graph clustering
One specificity of SuperCluster is that the model is not trained to explicitly do panoptic segmentation, but to predict the input parameters of a superpoint graph clustering problem whose solution is a panoptic segmentation.
For this reason, the hyperparameters for this graph optimization problem are selected after training, with a grid search on the training or validation set. We find that fairly similar hyperparameters yield the best performance on all our datasets (see our paper's appendix). Yet, you may want to explore these hyperparameters for your own dataset. To this end, see our demo notebook for parameterizing the panoptic segmentation.
Notebooks & visualization
We provide notebooks to help you get started with manipulating our core data structures, configs loading, dataset and model instantiation, inference on each dataset, and visualization.
In particular, we created an interactive visualization tool β¨ which can be used to produce shareable HTMLs. Demos of how to use this tool are provided in the notebooks. Additionally, examples of such HTML files are provided in media/visualizations.7z

π©βπ§ Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and tips for tackling them.
SPT or SuperCluster on an 11G-GPU
Our default configurations are designed for a 32G-GPU. Yet, SPT and SuperCluster can run on an 11G-GPU πΎ, with minor time and performance variations.
We provide configs in configs/experiment/semantic
for
training SPT on an 11G-GPU πΎ:
# Train SPT on S3DIS Fold 5
python src/train.py experiment=semantic/s3dis_11g datamodule.fold=5
# Train SPT on KITTI-360 Val
python src/train.py experiment=semantic/kitti360_11g
# Train SPT on DALES
python src/train.py experiment=semantic/dales_11g
Similarly, we provide configs in configs/experiment/panoptic
for
training SuperCluster on an 11G-GPU πΎ:
# Train SuperCluster on S3DIS Fold 5
python src/train.py experiment=panoptic/s3dis_11g datamodule.fold=5
# Train SuperCluster on S3DIS Fold 5 with {wall, floor, ceiling} as 'stuff'
python src/train.py experiment=panoptic/s3dis_with_stuff_11g datamodule.fold=5
# Train SuperCluster on ScanNet Val
python src/train.py experiment=panoptic/scannet_11g
# Train SuperCluster on KITTI-360 Val
python src/train.py experiment=panoptic/kitti360_11g
# Train SuperCluster on DALES
