Managing semantics knowledge for 3D architectural reconstruction

International audience; this work aims at bound geometrical detection of 3D objects from a point cloud using semantic descriptors to improve reusability of architectural building reconstruction and aid automatic reasoning in building information modeling (BIM). Based on exploring cognitive origins of spatial semantics representations, semantics conceptualization and classification is proposed for formal management of 3D architectural objects. The knowledge classification composes definition, partial knowledge and ambiguous knowledge, and is formalized with transformations among closed world assumption (CWA) and open world assumption (OWA). Systemic case study is conducted on a simplified bu…
