## Abstract

In this paper, we present a comprehensive point cloud semantic segmentation network that aggregates both local and global multi-scale information. First, we propose an Angle Correlation Point Convolution (ACPConv) module to effectively learn the local shapes of points. Second, based upon ACPConv, we introduce a local multi-scale split (MSS) block that hierarchically connects features within one single block and gradually enlarges the receptive field which is beneficial for exploiting the local context. Third, inspired by HRNet which has excellent performance on 2D image vision tasks, we build an HRNet customized for point cloud to learn global multi-scale context. Lastly, we introduce a point-wise attention fusion approach that fuses multi-resolution predictions and further improves point cloud semantic segmentation performance. Our experimental results and ablations on several benchmark datasets show that our proposed method is effective and able to achieve state-of-the-art performances compared to existing methods.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
