A new framework called Sparse Surface Understanding Framework (SSUF) has been developed to improve material recognition from incomplete visual data. SSUF adapts four pre-trained architectures—ConvAE, ViT, Swin Transformer, and MAE—for simultaneous surface reconstruction and material classification. Experiments on the Touch-and-Go dataset, using only 10% of visible image data, showed that Swin Transformer achieved the highest classification accuracy at 89.21%, while MAE excelled in reconstruction. ViT offered a balanced performance, and all models demonstrated real-time inference capabilities. AI
IMPACT This research could improve robotic perception and environmental understanding by enabling material recognition from severely limited visual input.
