Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replace independent point features with hierarchical shape-context blocks | PointNet-style point cloud classification on MNIST · MNIST test (256 points) | error rate (%): 0.78 -> 0.60 | Helped |
| Use a five-block ShapeContextNet instead of a single shape-context block (ablation) | ShapeContextNet · MNIST test (256 points) | error rate (%) | Helped |
| Replace hand-designed shape-context blocks with self-attention blocks | Point cloud classification · ModelNet40 test | overall accuracy (%): 90.0 -> 89.8 | No clear effect |
| Use 2 attention heads instead of 1 (ablation) | A-SCN · ModelNet40 test | overall accuracy (%): 89.8 -> 89.2 | Hurt |
| Use 4 attention heads instead of 1 (ablation) | A-SCN · ModelNet40 test | overall accuracy (%): 89.8 -> 89.8 | No clear effect |
| Use hierarchical contextual modeling for semantic segmentation | PointNet · S3DIS | mean IoU (%): 47.71 -> 52.72 | Helped |
| Use hierarchical contextual modeling for part segmentation | PointNet · ShapeNet part test | mean IoU (%): 83.7 -> 84.6 | Helped |
