Abstract
Techniques are described to generate a 3D scene by mapping a point cloud with a 2D image, and colorize portions of the 3D scene synthetically. An input is received to select, from the 3D scene, a portion to be colorized synthetically. The colorizing includes generating a reflectance image based on an intensity image of the point cloud. The colorizing further includes generating an occlusion mask that identifies the selected portion in the reflectance image. The colorizing further includes estimating, using a trained machine learning model, a color for each of the one or more points in the selected portion based on the reflectance image, the occlusion mask, and the 2D image. The 3D scene is updated by using the estimated colors from the trained machine learning model to colorize the selected portion.
