Abstract
We evaluated hierarchical spatial aggregation for three-dimensional perception under 19% point-cloud sparsity. A deterministic paired simulation generated 72 cases and preserved a median slice. Mean geometry recall changed from 0.582 to 0.630; the paired difference was +0.048 (95% interval +0.046 to +0.051). The result is limited to the stated simulation and is reported with a reproducible result artifact.
