| contents | Accurate classification of tree species based on Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) and Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is essential for biodiversity conservation. While advanced deep learning models for 3D point cloud classification have demonstrated strong performance in this domain, their high complexity often hinders the development of efficient, low-computation architectures. In this paper, we introduce STFT-KAN, a novel Kolmogorov-Arnold network that integrates the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), which can replace the standard linear layer with activation. We implemented STFT-KAN within a lightweight version of DGCNN, called liteDGCNN, to classify tree species using the TLS data. Our experiments show that STFT-KAN outperforms existing KAN variants by effectively balancing model complexity and performance with parameter count reduction, achieving competitive results compared to MLP-based models. Additionally, we evaluated a hybrid architecture that combines MLP in edge convolution with STFT-KAN in other layers, achieving comparable performance to MLP models while reducing the parameter count by 50% and 75% compared to other KAN-based variants. Furthermore, we compared our model to leading 3D point cloud learning approaches, demonstrating that STFT-KAN delivers competitive results compared to the state-of-the-art method PointMLP lite with an 87% reduction in parameter count. |
