Deep Learning Approach for Deduction of 3D Non-Rigid Transformation Based on Multi-Control Point Perception Data

Abstract

In complex measurement systems, scanning the shape data of solid models is time consuming, and real-time solutions are required. Therefore, we developed a 3D non-rigid transformation deduction model based on multi-control point perception data. We combined a convolutional neural network (CNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and self-attention mechanism (SA) to develop the CNN-GRU-SA deduction network, which can deduce 3D non-rigid transformations based on multiple control points. We compared the proposed network to several other networks, with the experimental results indicating that the maximum improvements in terms of loss and root-mean-squared error (RMSE) on the training set were 39% and 49%, respectively; the corresponding values for the testing set were 48% and 29%. Moreover, the average deviation of the inference results and average inference time were 0.55 mm and 0.021 s, respectively. Hence, the proposed deep learning method provides an effective method to simulate and deduce the 3D non-rigid transformation processes of entities in the measurement system space, thus highlighting its practical significance in optimizing entity deformation.
