Polygon Detection for Room Layout Estimation using Heterogeneous Graphs and Wireframes

David Gillsjö, Gabrielle Flood, Kalle Åström

This paper presents a neural network based semantic plane detection method utilizing polygon representations. The method can for example be used to solve room layout estimations tasks. The method is built on, combines and further develops several different modules from previous research. The network takes an RGB image and estimates a wireframe as well as a feature space using an hourglass backbone. From these, line and junction features are sampled. The lines and junctions are then represented as an undirected graph, from which polygon representations of the sought planes are obtained. Two different methods for this last step are investigated, where the most promising method is built on a heterogeneous graph transformer. The final output is in all cases a projection of the semantic planes in 2D. The methods are evaluated on the Structured 3D dataset and we investigate the performance both using sampled and estimated wireframes. The experiments show the potential of the graph-based method by outperforming state of the art methods in Room Layout estimation in the 2D metrics using synthetic wireframe detections.
