Abstract

2D views of objects play an important role in 3D object recognition. In this paper, we focus on 3D object recognition using the 2D projective views. The discriminativeness of each view of an object is first investigated with view saliency using 2D Zernike Moments. The proposed view saliency is then used to boost a multi-view convolutional neural network for 3D object recognition. The proposed method is compared with several state-of-the-art methods on the ModelNet dataset. Experimental results have shown that the performance of our method has been significantly improved over the existing multi-view based 3D object recognition methods.
