To cope with the issues of low filtering accuracy or excessive model complexity in traditional filtering algorithms, this paper proposes a filtering method for LiDAR point cloud based on a multi-scale convolutional neural network incorporated with the attention mechanism. Firstly, a regular image patch centering on each point is constructed based on the elevation information of point clouds. As thus, the point cloud filtering problem is transformed into the image classification problem. Then, considering the ability of multi-scale convolution to extract features at different scales and the potential of the attention mechanism to capture key information in images, a multi-scale convolutional neural network framework is constructed, and the attention mechanism is incorporated to coordinate multi-scale convolution kernel with channel and spatial attention modules. After this, the feature maps of the LiDAR point clouds can be acquired at different scales. For these feature maps, the weights of each channel layer and different spatial regions can be further tuned adaptively, which makes the network training more targeted, thereby improving the model performance for image classification and eventually separating of ground points and non-ground points preferably. Finally, the proposed method is compared with the cloth simulation filtering method (CSF), deep neural network method (DNN), k-nearest neighbor method (KNN), deep convolutional neural network method (DCNN) and scale-irrelevant and terrain-adaptive method (SITA) for the standard ISPRS dataset of point cloud filtering and the filter dataset of Qinghai. The experimental results show that the proposed method can obtain lower classification errors, which proves the superiority of this method in point cloud filtering.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14236170","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,6]],"date-time":"2022-12-06T01:43:48Z","timestamp":1670291028000},"page":"6170","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["A Filtering Method for LiDAR Point Cloud Based on Multi-Scale CNN with Attention Mechanism"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2565-1013","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bin","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Oceanography and Space Informatics, China University of Petroleum (East China), Qingdao 266580, China"}]},{"given":"Hao","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Oceanography and Space Informatics, China University of Petroleum (East China), Qingdao 266580, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2420-8012","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongmei","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Oceanography and Space Informatics, China University of Petroleum (East China), Qingdao 266580, China"},{"name":"Laboratory for Marine Mineral Resources, Qingdao National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology, Qingdao 266071, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"833","DOI":"10.3390\/rs2030833","article-title":"Ground filtering algorithms for airborne LiDAR data: A review of critical issues","volume":"2","author":"Meng","year":"2010","journal-title":"Remote Sens."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"85","DOI":"10.1016\/j.isprsjprs.2004.05.004","article-title":"Experimental comparison of filter algorithms for bare-Earth extraction from airborne laser scanning point clouds","volume":"59","author":"Sithole","year":"2004","journal-title":"ISPRS J.
