Geometry recognition from computer-aided design drawing files

Currently, the service provided by Axya links manufacturers and buyers of manufactured goods. To find a perfect match between a manufacturer and a buyer, the files they share need to be analyzed. CAD engineering drawings represent most of the files shared. However, manual analysis of large amounts of engineering drawings is too time-consuming while requiring high engineering expertise. Based on this, it is proposed 1) to investigate ways of automating the analysis of engineering drawings with computer vision, 2) to retrieve and analyze crucial geometric features from engineering drawings, and 3) to reconstruct 3D geometry from 2D data in engineering drawings.
