Creating CAD digital twins from the physical world is crucial for manufacturing, design, and simulation. However, current methods typically rely on costly 3D scanning with labor-intensive post-processing. To provide a user-friendly design process, we explore the problem of reverse engineering from unconstrained real-world CAD images that can be easily captured by users of all experiences. However, the scarcity of real-world CAD data poses challenges in directly training such models. To tackle these challenges, we propose CADCrafter, an image-to-parametric CAD model generation framework that trains solely on synthetic textureless CAD data while testing on real-world images. To bridge the significant representation disparity between images and parametric CAD models, we introduce a geometry encoder to accurately capture diverse geometric features. Moreover, the texture-invariant properties of the geometric features can also facilitate the generalization to real-world scenarios. Since compiling CAD parameter sequences into explicit CAD models is a non-differentiable process, the network training inherently lacks explicit geometric supervision. To impose geometric validity constraints, we employ direct preference optimization (DPO) to fine-tune our model with the automatic code checker feedback on CAD sequence quality. Furthermore, we collected a real-world dataset, comprised of multi-view images and corresponding CAD command sequence pairs, to evaluate our method. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach can robustly handle real unconstrained CAD images, and even generalize to unseen general objects.

We present a hierarchical triplet-based indoor relationship learning method, coined HierRelTriple, with a focus on spatial relationship learning. Existing approaches often depend on manually defined spatial rules or simplified pairwise representations, which fail to capture complex, multi-object relationships found in real scenarios and lead to overcrowded or physically implausible arrangements. We introduce HierRelTriple, a hierarchical relational triplets modeling framework that first partitions functional regions and then automatically extracts three levels of spatial relationships: object-to-region (O2R), object-to-object (O2O), and corner-to-corner (C2C). By representing these relationships as geometric triplets and employing approaches based on Delaunay Triangulation to establish spatial priors, we derive IoU loss between denoised and ground truth triplets and integrate them seamlessly into the diffusion denoising process. The introduction of the joint formulation of inter-object distances, angular orientations, and spatial relationships enhances the physical realism of the generated scenes. Extensive experiments on unconditional layout synthesis, floorplan-conditioned layout generation, and scene rearrangement demonstrate that HierRelTriple improves spatial-relation metrics by over 15% and substantially reduces collisions and boundary violations compared to state-of-the-art methods.
