Tunnel Reconstruction With Block Level Precision by Combining Data-Driven Segmentation and Model-Driven Assembly
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Metro subway systems with underground tunnels form the backbone of urban transportations and therefore, accurate monitoring and maintenance of such subway systems are extremely necessary for a hassle-free daily commutation of billions of people. Though 3-D models of tunnels are widely used for the deformation monitoring of such subway tunnels, existing model-based tunnel monitoring systems rely on coarse geometric models and hence fail to capture complete tunnel health information. We present a two-stage algorithm to create high-fidelity geometric models of tunnel lining from Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) point clouds. Tunnel geometry, defined at the detailed block entity level, is constructed through a data-driven block segmentation algorithm and a model-driven assembly technique. In our approach, the 3-D tunnel block segmentation problem has been translated into a bolt and lining joint recognition problem from 2-D images unfolded from the 3-D scans. The segmented 3-D blocks are matched with a set of predefined 3-D templates from a primitive library via a constraint total least squares matching method and the matched 3-D templates are assembled to create the final watertight tunnel model. The proposed tunnel modeling method has been comprehensively evaluated on Changzhou, Nanjing, and Wuhan tunnel data sets in terms of outliers, missing data, point density, topological representation, robustness, and geometric accuracy. The experiments on Nanjing and Changzhou metro tunnels show that the geometric model fitting incurs an error of only 7 mm, which is almost consistent with a mean density of 6 mm of these two data sets. Experimental results validate the advantages and potentials of the proposed tunnel modeling method.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
