Given its wide application in robotics, point cloud registration is a widely researched topic. Conventional methods aim to find a rotation and translation that align two point clouds in 6 degrees of freedom (DoF). However, certain tasks in robotics, such as category-level pose estimation, involve non-uniformly scaled point clouds, requiring a 9DoF transform for accurate alignment. We propose HEGN,...
