Efficient Extraction and Classification of Room Information from 2D Floor Plans Using a Hybrid Binary Decision Tree Approach with DBSCAN Clustering and Alpha Shape
摘要
Automated extraction of information from floor plans greatly benefits architects by enabling the reuse of floor plans. This approach emphasizes on extracting and recognizing text and graphics to obtain detailed information from floor plan images. The paper proposes an algorithm for floor plan information retrieval that incorporates geometry extraction and room detection methods. The alpha shape technique is applied for precise shape detection, with actual room areas calculated from these shapes. Furthermore, a binary decision tree model is implemented to classify rooms into categories such as drawing rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens, as well as non-room types like parking porches, bathrooms, study rooms, and prayer rooms. When evaluated on the CVC-FP (de las Heras et al. in Int J Doc Anal Recogn (IJDAR) 18(1):15–30 [1]) dataset, the proposed model achieves a mean room detection accuracy of 87.81% and an area calculation accuracy of 95.67%.
