SHREC'18: RgB-D object-to-CAD retrieval

Recent advances in consumer-grade depth sensors have enable the collection of massive real-world 3D objects. Together with the rise of deep learning, it brings great potential for large-scale 3D object retrieval. In this challenge, we aim to study and evaluate the performance of 3D object retrieval algorithms with RGB-D data. To support the study, we expanded the previous ObjectNN dataset [HTT ∗ 17] to include RGB-D objects from both SceneNN [HPN ∗ 16] and ScanNet [DCS ∗ 17], with the CAD models from ShapeNetSem [CFG ∗ 15]. Evaluation results show that while the RGB-D to CAD retrieval problem is indeed challenging due to incomplete RGB-D reconstructions, it can be addressed to a certain extent using deep learning techniques trained on multi-view 2D images or 3D point clouds. The best method in this track has a 82% retrieval accuracy.
