We study the use of predictive approaches alongside the region-adaptive hierarchical transform (RAHT) in attribute compression of dynamic point clouds. The use of intra-frame prediction with RAHT was shown to improve attribute compression performance over pure RAHT and represents the state-of-the-art in attribute compression of point clouds, being part of MPEG's geometry-based test model. We studied a combination of inter-frame and intra-frame prediction for RAHT for the compression of dynamic point clouds. An adaptive zero-motion-vector (ZMV) scheme and an adaptive motion-compensated scheme are developed. The simple adaptive ZMV approach is able to achieve sizable gains over pure RAHT and over the intra-frame predictive RAHT (I-RAHT) for point clouds with little or no motion while ensuring similar compression performance to I-RAHT for point clouds with intense motion. The motion-compensated approach, more complex and more powerful, is able to achieve large gains across all of the tested dynamic point clouds.

Copy number variation (CNV) is an important part of human genetic variations, which is associated with various kinds of diseases. To tackle the limitations of traditional CNV detection methods, such as restricted detection types, high error rates, and challenges in precisely identifying the location of variant breakpoints, a new method called MSCNV (copy number variations detection method for multi-strategies integration based on a one-class support vector machine model) is proposed. MSCNV establishes a multi-signal channel that integrates three strategies: read depth, split read, and read pair.

WildPose: A long-range 3D wildlife motion capture system.

J Exp Biol

African Robotics Unit, University of Cape Town, Cape Town, 7700, Western Cape, South Africa.

Understanding and monitoring wildlife behavior is crucial in ecology and biomechanics, yet challenging due to the limitations of current methods. To address this issue, we introduce WildPose, a novel long-range motion capture system specifically tailored for free-ranging wildlife observation. This system combines an electronically controllable zoom-lens camera with a LiDAR to capture both 2D videos and 3D point cloud data, thereby allowing researchers to observe high-fidelity animal morphometrics, behavior and interactions in a completely remote manner.

Fast surface reconstruction algorithm with adaptive step size.

PLoS One

January 2025

School of Mathematics and Finance, Hunan University of Humanities, Science and Technology, Loudi, China.

In (Dai et al. 2023), the authors proposed a fast algorithm for surface reconstruction that converges rapidly from point cloud data by alternating Anderson extrapolation with implicit progressive iterative approximation (I-PIA). This algorithm employs a fixed step size during iterations to enhance convergence.

Generative design of crystal structures by point cloud representations and diffusion model.

iScience

January 2025

School of Physics and Electronic Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu 212013, P.R. China.

Efficiently generating energetically stable crystal structures has long been a challenge in material design, primarily due to the immense arrangement of atoms in a crystal lattice. To facilitate the discovery of stable materials, we present a framework for the generation of synthesizable materials leveraging a point cloud representation to encode intricate structural information. At the heart of this framework lies the introduction of a diffusion model as its foundational pillar.
