In computer vision, it has in recent years become more popular to use point clouds to represent 3D data. To understand what a point cloud contains, methods like semantic segmentation can be used. Semantic segmentation is the problem of segmenting images or point clouds and understanding what the different segments are. An application for semantic segmentation of point clouds are e.g. autonomous driving, where the car needs information about objects in its surrounding. Our approach to the problem, is to project the point clouds into 2D virtual images using the Katz projection. Then we use pre-trained convolutional neural networks to semantically segment the images. To get the semantically segmented point clouds, we project back the scores from the segmentation into the point cloud. Our approach is evaluated on the semantic3D dataset. We find our method is comparable to state-of-the-art, without any fine-tuning on the Semantic3Ddataset.
