Quadratic Terms Based Point-to-Surface 3D Representation for Deep Learning of Point Cloud

In this paper, we introduce a novel point-to-surface representation for 3D point cloud learning. Unlike the previous methods that mainly adopt voxel, mesh, or point coordinates, we propose to tackle this problem from a new perspective: learn a set of quadratic terms based static and global reference surfaces to describe 3D shapes, such that the coordinates of a 3D point (x, y, z) can be extended t...
