MidSurfNet: Learning Face Pairing for Mid-surface Abstraction of Thin-walled CAD Models

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

MidSurfNet is a learning-based method for pairing faces in thin‑walled CAD models, addressing the key subproblem of mid‑surface abstraction for finite element analysis. It uses a dual‑stream scorer—one geometry stream and one attributed‑topology stream—fused by a pair‑conditioned gate to make per‑pair decisions that replace manual thresholds. The method organizes retained relations into variable‑cardinality face groups independent of processing order, and on a new MidSurf dataset of 1,575 annotated models it achieves an 87.32% pair‑level F1‑score and a 75.42% completion rate, outperforming rule‑based baselines, especially on multi‑wall‑thickness cases.
