Provided herein is a method, apparatus, and computer program product for classifying objects as static objects or dynamic objects based on point cloud data. Methods may include: receiving point cloud data representative of an environment; computing voxel sequences from the point cloud data; extracting voxel-wise semantic features from the voxel sequences; modeling voxel-wise temporal changes based on the voxel-wise semantic features; and classifying objects in the environment as dynamic objects or static objects based on the modeled voxel-wise temporal changes. Computing voxel sequences from the point cloud data may include using a voxel cloud connectivity segmentation method to group voxels in point clouds into perceptually meaningful regions.
