## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents the winning solution for the S23DR Challenge 2025, which involves predicting a house's 3D roof wireframe from a sparse point cloud and semantic segmentations. Our method operates directly in 3D, first identifying vertex candidates from the COLMAP point cloud using Gestalt segmentations. We then employ two PointNet-like models: one to refine and classify these candidates by analyzing local cubic patches, and a second to predict edges by processing the cylindrical regions connecting vertex pairs. This two-stage, 3D deep learning approach achieved a winning Hybrid Structure Score (HSS) of 0.43 on the private leaderboard.
