They have enormous potential to make manual or semi-assisted classification modes of point clouds a thing of the past. With that in mind, we can take a closer look at the Point Transformer V3 model included in `arcgis.learn` and how it can be used for point cloud classification.\n", |

It's designed with a focus on simplicity, efficiency, and performance. One of the key improvements in PTv3 over PTv1 is the introduction of grouped vector attention (GVA). This mechanism allows for efficient information exchange within the model, leading to better performance. PTv3 also boasts a receptive field that is 64 times wider than PTv1, enabling it to capture a broader context of the point cloud data. <a href=\"#References\">[1]</a> It replaces the computationally expensive KNN neighbor search with a more efficient serialized neighbor mapping. The complex attention patch interaction mechanisms of PTv2 are also simplified in PTv3, further enhancing efficiency. Moreover, PTv3 replaces relative positional encoding with a prepositive sparse convolutional layer, contributing to its overall simplicity and performance.\n", |
