Abstract:In this paper, we present a novel framework to detect line segments in man-made environments. Specifically, we propose to describe junctions, line segments and relationships between them with a simple graph, which is more structured and informative than end-point representation used in existing line segment detection methods. In order to extract a line segment graph from an image, we further introduce the PPGNet, a convolutional neural network that directly infers a graph from an image. We evaluate our method … Show more
“… There are some challenges in PATTERN DETECTION, such as pose variation, varying illumination, scene occlusion, and sensor noise. The research literature about the repeated pattern or periodic structure detection provides a stable baseline in both 2D images [221,222] and 3d cloud-points [223][224][225][226].…”

Object detection is a fundamental but challenging issue in the field of generic image analysis; it plays an important role in a wide range of applications and has been receiving special attention in recent years. Although there are enomerous methods exist, an in-depth review of the literature concerning generic detection remains. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of recent advances in visual object detection with deep learning. Covering about 300 publications that we survey 1) region proposal-based object detection methods such as R

“…Therefore, we varied these factors while keeping the other parameters constant, see Table 1. The examples in (Zhang et al, 2019) consist of graphs with up to 75 times more junctions and edges than are present in our data. Moreover, the goal of this study was to detect every edge present in the image.…”

“…Since recently, several deep neural network architectures have been available for edge graph detection on images. The given paper is a feasibility study in which the deep neural network Point-Pair Graph Network (PPGNet) (Zhang et al, 2019) is trained on hand-labeled orthoimages. The goal is to show that the quality of the recognized graph is sufficient to be used in a roof reconstruction pipeline.…”
Abstract. A challenge in data-based 3D building reconstruction is to find the exact edges of roof facet polygons. Although these edges are visible in orthoimages, convolution-based edge detectors also find many other edges due to shadows and textures. In this feasibility study, we apply machine learning to solve this problem. Recently, neural networks have been introduced that not only detect edges in images, but also assemble the edges into a graph. When applied to roof reconstruction, the vertices of the dual graph represent the roof facets. In this study, we apply the Point-Pair Graph Network (PPGNet) to orthoimages of buildings and evaluate the quality of the detected edge graphs. The initial results are promising, and adjusting the training parameters further improved the results. However, in some cases, additional work, such as post-processing, is required to reliably find all vertices.
“…Unlike the Wireframe Parser, they only focus on detection of line segments, ignoring the relationship between the segments. Zhang et al [32] formuate the wireframe parsing task as a graph optimization problem.…”

We propose an end-to-end method for simultaneously detecting local junctions and global wireframe in man-made environment. Our pipeline consists of an anchor-free junction detection module, a distance map learning module, and a line segment proposing and verification module. A set of line segments are proposed from the predicted junctions with guidance of the learned distance map, and further verified by the proposal verification module. Experimental results show that our method outperforms the previous state-of-the-art wireframe parser by a descent margin. In terms of line segments detection, our method shows competitive performance on standard benchmarks. The proposed networks are end-to-end trainable and efficient. a INDEX TERMS Artificial neural networks, computer vision, feature extraction, image edge detection.
