Segmentation is the fundamental step for recognizing and extracting objects from point clouds of 3D scene. In this paper, we present a strategy for point cloud segmentation using voxel structure and graph-based clustering with perceptual grouping laws, which allows a learning-free and completely automatic but parametric solution for segmenting 3D point cloud. To speak precisely, two segmentation methods utilizing voxel and supervoxel structures are reported and tested. The voxel-based data structure can increase efficiency and robustness of the segmentation process, suppressing the negative effect of noise, outliers, and uneven points densities. The clustering of voxels and supervoxel...
