Deep Learning–Based Scan-to-BIM Automation and Object Scope Expansion Using a Low-Cost 3D Scan Data

Publication: Journal of Computing in Civil Engineering
Volume 38, Issue 6

Abstract

To bridge the gap in as-built Building Information Model (BIM) creation between the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) community and the computer vision community, this paper presents an automated Scan-to-BIM framework for modeling both structural and nonstructural building components using a low-cost scanning data. The state-of-the-art instance-level semantic segmentation algorithm, SoftGroup, is adopted to classify individual building components. Detected wall segments are projected onto a two-dimensional (2D) XY grid, and an interest point detection algorithm, SuperPoint, is used to extract wall corner points. Subsequently, a series of refinement steps is proposed to generate the wall boundary. With optimized parameters, an intersection-over-union of 82.56% was achieved when tested on the benchmark Stanford Three-Dimensional (3D) Indoor Scene Data Set. Our results demonstrated the usability of the proposed wall boundary extraction to the incomplete and complex indoor scan data compared to an existing as-built modeling method. Instance-level segments and the refined wall boundary were combined to generate as-built BIM via parametric modeling.
