Abstract
- Labelled point clouds are crucial to train supervised Deep Learning (DL) methods used for semantic segmentation. The objective of this research is to quantify discordances between the labels made by different people in order to assess whether such discordances can influence the success rates of a DL based semantic segmentation algorithm. An urban point cloud of 30 m road length in Santiago de Compostela (Spain) was labelled two times by ten persons. Discordances and its significance in manual labelling between individuals and rounds were calculated. In addition, a ratio test to signify discordance and concordance was proposed. Results show that most of the points were labelled accordingly with the same class by all the people. However, there were many points that were labelled with two or more classes. Class curb presented 5.9% of discordant points and 3.2 discordances for each point with concordance by all people. In addition, the percentage of significative labelling differences of the class curb was 86.7% comparing all the people in the same round and 100% comparing rounds of each person. Analysing the semantic segmentation results with a DL based algorithm, PointNet++, the percentage of concordance points are related with F-score value in R2 = 0.765, posing that manual labelling has significant impact on results of DL-based semantic segmentation methods.
