Point Transformer-Based Salient Object Detection Network for 3-D Measurement Point Clouds
Bibliographic record
Abstract
While salient object detection (SOD) on 2D images has been extensively studied, there is very little SOD work on 3D measurement surfaces. We propose an effective point transformer-based SOD network for 3D measurement point clouds, termed PSOD-Net. PSOD-Net is an encoder-decoder network that takes full advantage of transformers to model the contextual information in both multi-scale point- and scene-wise manners. In the encoder, we develop a Point Context Transformer (PCT) module to capture region contextual features at the point level; PCT contains two different transformers to excavate the relationship among points. In the decoder, we develop a Scene Context Transformer (SCT) module to learn context representations at the scene level; SCT contains both Upsampling-and-Transformer blocks and Multi-context Aggregation units to integrate the global semantic and multi-level features from the encoder into the global scene context. Experiments show clear improvements of PSOD-Net over its competitors and validate that PSOD-Net is more robust to challenging cases such as small objects, multiple objects, and objects with complex structures. Code is available at: https://github.com/ZeyongWei/PSOD-Net.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
