Lidar Data augmentation












0












$begingroup$


I am working on Object Segmentation using Lidar 3D point clouds, basically using Kitti dataset. However, the dataset is imbalanced for classes cyclists and pedestrians. So, I am looking for ways to



1. Augment the point clouds to increase the dataset size for more instances of pedestrians and cyclists and 
2. To create an unbiased model which is more accurate and robust


Can someone guide me as to how can I do it for point clouds, like augmentation techniques (apart from flipping in horizontal direction) or adding some kind of noise(awgn)/distortion to point clouds, while preserving the data consistency?
