Abstract
Recent advances in scanning device technologies and improvements in techniques that generate and synthesize 3D shapes have made 3D models widespread in various fields including medical research, biology, engineering, etc. 3D shape descriptors play a fundamental role in many 3D shape analysis tasks such as point matching, establishing point‐to‐point correspondence, shape segmentation and labelling, and shape retrieval to name a few. Various methods have been proposed to calculate succinct and informative descriptors for 3D models. Emerging data‐driven techniques use machine learning algorithms to construct accurate and reliable shape descriptors. This survey provides a thorough review of the data‐driven 3D shape descriptors from the machine learning point of view and compares them in different criteria. Also, a comprehensive taxonomy of the existing descriptors is proposed based on the exploited machine learning algorithms. Advantages and disadvantages of each category have been discussed in detail. Besides, two alternative categorizations from the data type and the application perspectives are presented. Finally, some directions for possible future research are also suggested.Recent advances in scanning device technologies and improvements in techniques that generate and synthesize 3D shapes have made 3D models widespread in various fields including medical research, biology, engineering, etc. 3D shape descriptors play a fundamental role in many 3D shape analysis tasks such as point matching, establishing point‐to‐point correspondence, shape segmentation and labelling, and shape retrieval to name a few.
