Spectral Informed Mamba for Robust Point Cloud Processing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
State Space Models (SSMs) have shown significant promise in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and, more recently, computer vision. This paper introduces a new methodology that leverages Mamba and Masked Autoencoder (MAE) networks for point-cloud data in both supervised and self-supervised learning. We propose three key contributions to enhance Mamba’s capability in processing complex point-cloud structures. First, we exploit the spectrum of a graph Laplacian to capture patch connectivity, defining an isometry-invariant traversal order that is robust to viewpoints and captures shape manifolds better than traditional 3D grid-based traversals. Second, we adapt segmentation via a recursive patch partitioning strategy informed by Laplacian spectral components, allowing finer integration and segment analysis. Third, we address token placement in MAE for Mamba by restoring tokens to their original positions, which preserves essential order and improves learning. Extensive experiments demonstrate the improvements that our approach brings over state-of-the-art baselines in classification, segmentation, and few-shot tasks. The implementation is available at: https://github.com/AliBahri94/SI-Mamba.git.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
