arXiv:2607.04119v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reconstructing Computer-Aided Design (CAD) modeling sequences from images is crucial for preserving design intent and supporting parametric editing. However, existing methods typically generate full CAD sequences holistically, overlooking the iterative, feedback-driven nature of human design workflows. We address this limitation by introducing the rich stepwise visual supervision: at each modeling step, the system observes the target's orthographic projections, the projections of the incrementally constructed model, and the active sketch, enabl
The proliferation of advanced AI techniques, particularly in vision and generative modeling, increasingly enables the automation of complex design processes previously requiring explicit human input.
This research introduces a novel, human-centric approach to CAD modeling sequence generation, which could significantly enhance the efficiency and accessibility of complex 3D design by better mimicking iterative human workflows.
Traditional holistic CAD sequence generation is being challenged by stepwise, feedback-driven methods, allowing for more natural and editable design automation that preserves design intent through intermediate steps.
