摘要：The classification and recognition of the shapes of buildings in map space play an important role in spatial cognition, cartographic generalization, and map updating. As buildings in map space are often represented as the vector data, research was conducted to learn the feature representations of the buildings and recognize their shapes based on graph neural networks. Due to the principles of graph neural networks, it is necessary to construct a graph to represent the adjacency relationships between the points (i.e., the vertices of the polygons shaping the buildings), and extract a list of geometric features for each point. This paper proposes a deep point convolutional network to recognize building shapes, which executes the convolution directly on the points of the buildings without constructing the graphs and extracting the geometric features of the points. A new convolution operator named TriangleConv was designed to learn the feature representations of each point by aggregating the features of the point and the local triangle constructed by the point and its two adjacency points. The proposed method was evaluated and compared with related methods based on a dataset consisting of 5010 vector buildings. In terms of accuracy, macro-precision, macro-recall, and macro-F1, the results show that the proposed method has comparable performance with typical graph neural networks of GCN, GAT, and GraphSAGE, and point cloud neural networks of PointNet, PointNet++, and DGCNN in the task of recognizing and classifying building shapes in map space.
