Error while training the model using ShapeNetCore.v2 about skeletonmerger

[eliphatfs]

The error message comes from internals of h5py rather than code of Skeleton Merger. The most probable reason for the error is that the downloaded file is corrupted. You may try downloading it again.

I downloaded the dataset again but the same issue. I have also restarted the machine to see if it works, but no progress.
Any suggestion?

Perhaps there is something wrong with the file enumeration; you could try separately placing the target .h5 files in a folder without the meta files (e.g. .json files)

It turns out that the main issue was due to including files other than .h5 files such as .json and .txt in the same directory. The script was reading .json and .txt files as well (also inside the subdirectory if there are any) and hence the issue.
When I extracted the "ShapeNetCore.v2" zip file, the extracted directory contains all the files in it.
I moved the .h5 files into separate directory and now able to train and generate the keypoints (stored in merger_prediction.npz) for the keypointnet pcd files.

Btw, which tool/code are you using to visualize the keypoints stored in merger_prediction.npz?
I am working on reading the npz file, loading the data and trying to plot using matplotlib, but I am still learning it though.

The visualization in the paper is done by https://github.com/eliphatfs/PointCloudVisualizer
Since it is external (and unity is not freeware) the related scripts are not included here. You have to export the data into a json file containing relevant information to use the visualizer. The specs can be found at the repository. It shouldn't be hard to combine original points and keypoints from the present code files into the visualization json file.

Since the problem related has been resolved I would like to close the issue now.
