What is a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) – 3D Point Cloud Classification Primer

Recently we finished a paper about 3d point cloud classification and segmentation using our proposed 3D modified Fisher Vector (3DmFV) representation and convolutional neural networks (CNNs).  It is currently available on ArXiv.  I believe in making research accessible to everyone and I realized that this paper requires some level of familiarity with two main topics: […]
