ForestMamba: Sparse Mamba with Geometry-guided Queries for 3D Forest Point Cloud Segmentation

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2606.01549v1 Announce Type: new AI-based semantic and instance segmentation of terrestrial and drone LiDAR point clouds is emerging as a transformative approach for converting the complex 3D structure of forests into actionable information for forest monitoring and biodiversity assessment. However, forest LiDAR scenes remain highly challenging due to their large data volumes, irregular sampling density, overlapping and complex canopy structure, and geographic variability.
