Abstract: Aiming at the problems of poor robustness and low efficiency of existing LiDAR point cloud segmentation algorithms,this paper proposes a new hierarchical clustering segmentation algorithm.Firstly,a supervoxel with adaptive resolution is generated from the LiDAR point clouds.Then an improved pairwise linkage segmentation algorithm is used to the supervoxel to get the segmentation results.Experimental results show that the proposed segmentation algorithm has better robustness and higher computational efficiency compared with that of the existing segmentation methods.The issues of over segmentation and insufficient segmentation of the point clouds have been solved.The proposed algorithm is more prominent in segmentation details,and the segmentation results can effectively ensure the accuracy of subsequent data processing.
