Automated Generation of Work Breakdown Structure and Project Network Model for Earthworks Project Planning: A Flow Network-Based Optimization Approach

Published in Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 2016

This paper is about automated project planning. It integrates workbreakdown structure and project network for earthwork projects automatically. The method aoids temporal-spatial conflicts that are typical in existing linear programming methods by a two-step approach.

 

Methodology overview.

research

Deep Geometric Learning

This project aims to obtain the parametric model of basic primitives from noisy point cloud.

Primitive fitting on a simulated test range image (top left) with BAGSFit (middle right) vs. RANSAC (top right). Estimated normals (middle left) and ground truth labels (bottom left) are used to train a fully convolutional segmentation network in BAGSFit. During testing, a boundaryaware and thus instance-aware segmentation (bottom right) is predicted, and sent through a geometric verification to fit final primitives (randomly colored). Comparing with BAGSFit, the RANSAC-based method produces more misses and false detections of primitives (shown as transparent or wireframe), and thus a less appealing visual result.
