This paper presents a competitive solution to the S23DR Challenge 2026, which aims to reconstruct 3D house roof wireframe models from sparse SfM point clouds and ground-level semantic segmentations and depth maps. Our proposed method utilizes an end-to-end Transformer encoder-decoder architecture inspired by DETR. To effectively process the geometric and semantic data, the sparse SfM point cloud input is dynamically subsampled based on semantic priority and augmented with Gestalt and ADE20k class features. To further increase segmentation context, we fuse the point features with additional Gestalt feature encodings which are obtained by projecting the points into latent feature maps produced by a frozen autoencoder. Learned query embeddings are then decoded directly into 3D wireframe edges via cross-attention mechanisms. Evaluated on the "HoHo 22k" dataset, our approach significantly outperforms both handcrafted and learned baselines, achieving a Hybrid Structure Score (HSS) of 0.6476 and securing the second-highest position on the challenge's private leaderboard.

We present FACT, a method for predicting alignment quality (i.e., registration error) of registered lidar point cloud pairs. This is useful e.g. for quality assurance of large, automatically registered 3D models. FACT extracts local features from a registered pair and processes them with a point transformer-based network to predict a misalignment class. We generalize prior work that study binary alignment classification of registration errors, by recasting it as multinomial misalignment classification. To achieve this, we introduce a custom regression-by-classification loss function that combines the cross-entropy and Wasserstein losses, and demonstrate that it outperforms both direct regression and prior binary classification. FACT successfully classifies point-cloud pairs registered with both the classical ICP and GeoTransformer, while other choices, such as standard point-cloud-quality metrics and registration residuals are shown to be poor choices for predicting misalignment. On a synthetically perturbed point-cloud task introduced by the CorAl method, we show that FACT achieves substantially better performance than CorAl. Finally, we demonstrate how FACT can assist experts in correcting misaligned point-cloud maps. Our code is available at https://github.com/LudvigDillen/FACT_for_PCMC.
