Point-JEPA: A Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture for Self-Supervised Learning on Point Cloud
<|reference_start|>Point-JEPA: A Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture for Self-Supervised Learning on Point Cloud: Recent advancements in self-supervised learning in the point cloud domain have demonstrated significant potential. However, these methods often suffer from drawbacks, including lengthy pre-training time, the necessity of reconstruction in the input space, or the necessity of additional modalities. In order to address these issues, we introduce Point-JEPA, a joint embedding predictive architecture designed specifically for point cloud data. To this end, we introduce a sequencer that orders point cloud tokens to efficiently compute and utilize tokens proximity based on their indices during target and context selection. The sequencer also allows shared computations of the tokens proximity between context and target selection, further improving the efficiency. Experimentally, our method achieves competitive results with state-of-the-art methods while avoiding the reconstruction in the input space or additional modality.<|reference_end|>
