This repository contains model weights for **LitePT: Lighter Yet Stronger Point Transformer**, a lightweight, high-performance 3D point cloud architecture. 

LitePT embodies the simple principle "convolutions for low-level geometry, attention for high-level relations" and strategically places only the required operations at each hierarchy level. LitePT is equipped with a novel, parameter-free 3D positional encoding, PointROPE. The resulting model achieves state-of-the-art performance while being significantly more efficient.
