  3D semantic scene labeling is fundamental to agents operating in the real
world. In particular, labeling raw 3D point sets from sensors provides
fine-grained semantics. Recent works leverage the capabilities of Neural
Networks (NNs), but are limited to coarse voxel predictions and do not
explicitly enforce global consistency. We present SEGCloud, an end-to-end
framework to obtain 3D point-level segmentation that combines the advantages of
NNs, trilinear interpolation(TI) and fully connected Conditional Random Fields
(FC-CRF). Coarse voxel predictions from a 3D Fully Convolutional NN are
transferred back to the raw 3D points via trilinear interpolation. Then the
FC-CRF enforces global consistency and provides fine-grained semantics on the
points. We implement the latter as a differentiable Recurrent NN to allow joint
optimization. We evaluate the framework on two indoor and two outdoor 3D
datasets (NYU V2, S3DIS, KITTI, Semantic3D.net), and show performance
comparable or superior to the state-of-the-art on all datasets.
