Enhancing Floor Plan Recognition: A Hybrid Mix-Transformer and U-Net Approach for Precise Wall Segmentation

arXiv:2512.02413v3 Announce Type: replace-cross
Abstract: Automatic 3D reconstruction of indoor spaces from 2D floor plans necessitates high-precision semantic segmentation of structural elements, particularly walls. However, existing methods often struggle with detecting thin structures and maintaining geometric precision. To address this, we introduce MitUNet, a hybrid neural network designed to bridge the gap between global semantic context and fine-grained structural details. Our architecture combines a Mix-Transformer encoder with a U-Net decoder enhanced with spatial and channel attention blocks. Optimized with the Tversky loss function, this approach achieves a balance between precision and recall, ensuring accurate boundary recovery. Experiments on the CubiCasa5k dataset and the regional dataset demonstrate MitUNet’s superiority in generating structurally correct masks with high boundary accuracy, outperforming standard models. This tool provides a robust foundation for automated 3D reconstruction pipelines. To ensure reproducibility and facilitate future research, the source code and the regional dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/aliasstudio/mitunet and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17871079, respectively.
