US Patent 11657603 Semantic segmentation of three-dimensional data

Systems and methods for performing semantic segmentation of three-dimensional data are provided. In one example embodiment, a computing system can be configured to obtain sensor data including three-dimensional data associated with an environment. The three-dimensional data can include a plurality of points and can be associated with one or more times. The computing system can be configured to determine data indicative of a two-dimensional voxel representation associated with the environment based at least in part on the three-dimensional data. The computing system can be configured to determine a classification for each point of the plurality of points within the three-dimensional data based at least in part on the two-dimensional voxel representation associated with the environment and a machine-learned semantic segmentation model. The computing system can be configured to initiate one or more actions based at least in part on the per-point classifications.
