New Semantic-ITC dataset targets indoor laser scanning segmentation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced Semantic-ITC, a novel dataset and benchmark designed for frame-wise semantic segmentation of indoor mobile laser scanning (MLS) data. This dataset addresses a gap in current benchmarks, which often focus on reconstructed indoor scenes or outdoor environments. Semantic-ITC includes over 79,000 MLS frames with 1.23 billion labeled points across 16 semantic classes, preserving the sparse and frame-wise nature of indoor MLS data. The annotations were generated using a hybrid approach involving visual foundation models, BIM information, and manual refinement, with the best baseline achieving 79.27% mIoU on a single-frame benchmark.

IMPACT Provides a new benchmark for indoor mobile laser scanning semantic segmentation, potentially advancing research in autonomous navigation and 3D scene understanding.

    Semantic-ITC: A Frame-wise Indoor Mobile Laser Scanning Dataset and Benchmark for Semantic Segmentation

    arXiv:2609.18493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semantic labels for indoor mobile laser scanning (MLS) frames remain largely absent from current point cloud semantic segmentation benchmarks, which mainly focus on reconstructed indoor scenes or outdoor LiDAR perception. This paper…
