LLM in the loop: a framework for contextualizing counterfactual segment perturbations in point clouds
Veljka Kočić, Niko Lukač, Dzemail Rozajac, Stefan Schweng, Christoph Gollob, Arne Nothdurft, Karl Stampfer, Javier Del Ser, Andreas Holzinger, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Point Cloud Data analysis has seen a major leap forward with the introduction of PointNet algorithms, revolutionizing how we process 3D environments. Yet, despite these advancements, key challenges remain, particularly in optimizing segment perturbations to influence model outcomes in a controlled and meaningful way. Traditional methods struggle to generate realistic and contextually appropriate perturbations, limiting their effectiveness in critical applications like autonomous systems and urban planning. This paper takes a bold step by integrating Large Language Models into the counterfactual reasoning process, unlocking a new level of automation and intelligence in segment perturbation. Our approach begins with semantic segmentation, after which LLMs intelligently select optimal replacement segments based on features such as class label, color, area, and height. By leveraging the reasoning capabilities of LLMs, we generate perturbations that are not only computationally efficient but also semantically meaningful. The proposed framework undergoes rigorous evaluation, combining human inspection of LLM-generated suggestions with quantitative analysis of semantic classification model performance across different LLM variants. By bridging the gap between geometric transformations and high-level semantic reasoning, this research redefines how we approach perturbation generation in Point Cloud Data analysis. The results pave the way for more interpretable, adaptable, and intelligent AI-driven solutions, bringing us closer to realworld applications where explainability and robustness are paramount.

Enhancing trust in automated 3D point cloud data interpretation through explainable counterfactuals
Andreas Holzinger, Niko Lukač, Dzemail Rozajac, Emil Johnston, Veljka Kočić, Bernhard Hoerl, Christoph Gollob, Arne Nothdurft, Karl Stampfer, Stefan Schweng, Javier Del Ser, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: This paper introduces a novel framework for augmenting explainability in the interpretation of point cloud data by fusing expert knowledge with counterfactual reasoning. Given the complexity and voluminous nature of point cloud datasets, derived predominantly from LiDAR and 3D scanning technologies, achieving interpretability remains a significant challenge, particularly in smart cities, smart agriculture, and smart forestry. This research posits that integrating expert knowledge with counterfactual explanations – speculative scenarios illustrating how altering input data points could lead to different outcomes – can significantly reduce the opacity of deep learning models processing point cloud data. The proposed optimization-driven framework utilizes expert-informed ad-hoc perturbation techniques to generate meaningful counterfactual scenarios when employing state-of-the-art deep learning architectures. The optimization process minimizes a multi-criteria objective comprising counterfactual metrics such as similarity, validity, and sparsity, which are specifically tailored for point cloud datasets. These metrics provide a quantitative lens for evaluating the interpretability of the counterfactuals. Furthermore, the proposed framework allows for the definition of explicit interpretable counterfactual perturbations at its core, thereby involving the audience of the model in the counterfactual generation pipeline and ultimately, improving their overall trust in the process. Results demonstrate a notable improvement in both the interpretability of the model’s decisions and the actionable insights delivered to end-users. Additionally, the study explores the role of counterfactual reasoning, coupled with expert input, in enhancing trustworthiness and enabling human-in-the-loop decision-making processes. By bridging the gap between complex data interpretations and user comprehension, this research advances the field of explainable AI, contributing to the development of transparent, accountable, and human-centered artificial intelligence systems.

Simulating and verifying a 2D/3D laser line sensor measurement algorithm on CAD models and real objects
Rok Belšak, Janez Gotlih, Timi Karner, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: The increasing adoption of 2D/3D laser line sensors in industrial and research applications necessitates accurate and efficient simulation tools for tasks such as surface inspection, dimensional verification, and quality control. This paper presents a novel algorithm developed in MATLAB for simulating the measurements of any 2D/3D laser line sensor on STL CAD models. The algorithm uses a modified fast-ray triangular intersection method, addressing challenges such as overlapping triangles in assembly models and incorporating sensor resolution to ensure realistic simulations. Quantitative analysis shows a significant reduction in computation time, enhancing the practical utility of the algorithm. The simulation results exhibit a mean deviation of 0.42 mm when compared to real-world measurements. Notably, the algorithm effectively handles complex geometric features, such as holes and grooves, and offers flexibility in generating point cloud data in both local and global coordinate systems. This work not only reduces the need for physical prototyping, thereby contributing to sustainability, but also supports AI training by generating accurate synthetic data. Future work should aim to further optimize the simulation speed and explore noise modeling to enhance the realism of simulated measurements.

Prediction of the form of a hardened metal workpiece during the straightening process
Tadej Peršak, Jernej Hernavs, Tomaž Vuherer, Aleš Belšak, Simon Klančnik, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: In industry, metal workpieces are often heat-treated to improve their mechanical properties, which leads to unwanted deformations and changes in their geometry. Due to their high hardness (60 HRC or more), conventional bending and rolling straightening approaches are not effective, as a failure of the material occurs. The aim of the research was to develop a predictive model that predicts the change in the form of a hardened workpiece as a function of the arbitrary set of strikes that deform the surface plastically. A large-scale laboratory experiment was carried out in which a database of 3063 samples was prepared, based on the controlled application of plastic deformations on the surface of the workpiece and high-resolution capture of the workpiece geometry. The different types of input data, describing, on the one hand, the performed plastic surface deformations on the workpieces, and on the other hand the point cloud of the workpiece geometry, were combined appropriately into a form that is a suitable input for a U-Net convolutional neural network. The U-Net model’s performance was investigated using three statistical indicators. These indicators were: relative absolute error (RAE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and relative squared error (RSE). The results showed that the model had excellent prediction performance, with the mean values of RMSE less than 0.013, RAE less than 0.05, and RSE less than 0.004 on test data. Based on the results, we concluded that the proposed model could be a useful tool for designing an optimal straightening strategy for high-hardness metal workpieces. Our results will open the doors to implementing digital sustainability techniques, since more efficient handling will result in fewer subsequent heat treatments and shorter handling times. An important goal of digital sustainability is to reduce electricity consumption in production, which this approach will certainly do.

Novel Half-Spaces Based 3D Building Reconstruction Using Airborne LiDAR Data
Marko Bizjak, Domen Mongus, Borut Žalik, Niko Lukač, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Automatic building reconstruction from laser-scanned data remains a challenging research topic due to buildings’ roof complexity and sparse data. A novel automatic building reconstruction methodology, based on half-spaces and a height jump analysis, is presented in this paper. The proposed methodology is performed in three stages. During the preprocessing stage, the classified input point cloud is clustered by position to obtain building point sets, which are then evaluated to obtain half-spaces and detect height jumps. Half-spaces represent the fundamental shape for generating building models, and their definition is obtained from the corresponding segment of points that describe an individual planar surface. The detection of height jumps is based on a DBSCAN search within a custom search space. During the second stage, the building point sets are divided into sub-buildings in such a way that their roofs do not contain height jumps. The concept of sub-buildings without height jumps is introduced to break down the complex building models with height jumps into smaller parts, where shaping with half-spaces can be applied accurately. Finally, the sub-buildings are reconstructed separately with the corresponding half-spaces and then joined back together to form a complete building model. In the experiments, the methodology’s performance was demonstrated on a large scale and validated on an ISPRS benchmark dataset, where an RMSE of 0.29 m was obtained in terms of the height difference.

Reflection symmetry detection in earth observation data
David Podgorelec, Luka Lukač, Borut Žalik, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: The paper presents a new algorithm for reflection symmetry detection, which is specialized to detect maximal symmetric patterns in an Earth observation (EO) dataset. First, we stress the particularities that make symmetry detection in EO data different from detection in other geometric sets. The EO data acquisition cannot provide exact pairs of symmetric elements and, therefore, the approximate symmetry must be addressed, which is accomplished by voxelization. Besides this, the EO data symmetric patterns in the top view usually contain the most useful information for further processing and, thus, it suffices to detect symmetries with vertical symmetry planes. The algorithm first extracts the so-called interesting voxels and then finds symmetric pairs of line segments, separately for each horizontal voxel slice. The results with the same symmetry plane are then merged, first in individual slices and then through all the slices. The detected maximal symmetric patterns represent the so-called partial symmetries, which can be further processed to identify global and local symmetries. LiDAR datasets of six urban and natural attractions in Slovenia of different scales and in different voxel resolutions were analyzed in this paper, demonstrating high detection speed and quality of solutions.

Simulating various terrestrial and UAV LiDAR scanning configurations for understory forest structure modelling
Marina Hämmerle, Niko Lukač, K.-C. Chen, Zsófia Koma, C.-K. Wang, K. Anders, B. Höfle, 2017, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci

Opis: Information about the 3D structure of understory vegetation is of high relevance in forestry research and management (e.g., for complete biomass estimations). However, it has been hardly investigated systematically with state-of-the-art methods such as static terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) or laser scanning from unmanned aerial vehicle platforms (ULS). A prominent challenge for scanning forests is posed by occlusion, calling for proper TLS scan position or ULS flight line configurations in order to achieve an accurate representation of understory vegetation. The aim of our study is to examine the effect of TLS or ULS scanning strategies on (1) the height of individual understory trees and (2) understory canopy height raster models. We simulate full-waveform TLS and ULS point clouds of a virtual forest plot captured from various combinations of max. 12 TLS scan positions or 3 ULS flight lines. The accuracy of the respective datasets is evaluated with reference values given by the virtually scanned 3D triangle mesh tree models. TLS tree height underestimations range up to 1.84 m (15.30 % of tree height) for single TLS scan positions, but combining three scan positions reduces the underestimation to maximum 0.31 m (2.41 %). Combining ULS flight lines also results in improved tree height representation, with a maximum underestimation of 0.24 m (2.15 %). The presented simulation approach offers a complementary source of information for efficient planning of field campaigns aiming at understory vegetation modelling.

Reconstructing 3D curves with euclidean minimal spanning trees
Simon Kolmanič, Nikola Guid, 2006, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: In this paper, we present a new efficient algorithm for reconstruction of nonintersecting 3D curves from a sufficiently den se sample. We use the Euclidean minimal spanning trees to identify line segments reconstructing curve shapes. To deal with more than one curve in a sample and to eliminate noisy data, we introduce chains of connected line segments. With the incremental growth based on heuristics, the chains contain finally curve shapes. The method is robust and fast for both 2D and 3D curves.
