Holistically-Attracted Wireframe Parsing: From Supervised to Self-Supervised Learning
share
This paper presents Holistically-Attracted Wireframe Parsing (HAWP) for 2D images using both fully supervised and self-supervised learning paradigms. At the core is a parsimonious representation that encodes a line segment using a closed-form 4D geometric vector, which enables lifting line segments in wireframe to an end-to-end trainable holistic attraction field that has built-in geometry-awareness, context-awareness and robustness. The proposed HAWP consists of three components: generating line segment and end-point proposal, binding line segment and end-point, and end-point-decoupled lines-of-interest verification. For self-supervised learning, a simulation-to-reality pipeline is exploited in which a HAWP is first trained using synthetic data and then used to “annotate" wireframes in real images with Homographic Adaptation. With the self-supervised annotations, a HAWP model for real images is trained from scratch. In experiments, the proposed HAWP achieves state-of-the-art performance in both the Wireframe dataset and the YorkUrban dataset in fully-supervised learning. It also demonstrates a significantly better repeatability score than prior arts with much more efficient training in self-supervised learning. Furthermore, the self-supervised HAWP shows great potential for general wireframe parsing without onerous wireframe labels.
