Hybrid semantic clustering of 3D point clouds in construction

  • In this work, the authors present an artificial intelligence (AI)-based semantic segmentation approach for three-dimensional (3D) point clouds which were generated from 2D images with a structure from motion (SfM) pipeline. The target application area are 3D scans of buildings in the construction domain. The goal is to differentiate basic objects, such as floor, ceiling, walls, or columns in a building during the construction phase. The authors utilize state-of-the-art neural networks (RandLA-Net) to label the 3D points, and the novelty of their approach lies in conducting the training of the network in the hybrid 2D/3D domain, rather than solely in the 3D domain. This allows us to benefit from the high efficiency and accuracy of pre-trained networks in the 2D domain. In our approach we register the 2D images to the 3D points cloud and thereby fuse the individual 2D segmentation results to create a consistently segmented 3D point cloud.
