Abstract
Devices, systems, methods, and media are described for adaptive scene augmentation of a point cloud frame for inclusion in a labeled point cloud dataset used for training a machine learned model for a prediction task for point cloud frames, such as object detection or segmentation. A formal method is described for generating new point cloud frames based on pre-existing annotated large-scale labeled point cloud frames included in a point cloud dataset to generate new, augmented point cloud frames. A policy is generated for large-scale data augmentation using detailed quantitative metrics such as confusion matrices. The policy is a detailed and stepwise set of rules, procedures, and/or conditions that may be used to generate augmented data specifically targeted to mitigate the existing inaccuracies in the trained model. The augmented point cloud frames may then be used to further train the model to improve the prediction accuracy of the model.
