Within the realm of Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Boundary-Representation (B-Rep) is the standard option for modeling shapes. We present SpelsNet, a neural architecture for the segmentation of 3D point clouds into surface primitive elements under topological supervision of its B-Rep graph structure. We also propose a point-to-BRep adjacency representation that allows for adapting conventional Linear Algebraic Representation of B-Rep graph structure to the point cloud domain. Thanks to this representation, SpelsNet learns from both spatial and topological domains to enable accurate and topologically consistent surface primitive element segmentation. In particular, SpelsNet is composed of two main components; (1) a supervised 3D spatial segmentation head that outputs B-Rep element types and memberships; (2) a graph-based head that leverages the proposed topological supervision. To enable the learning of SpelsNet with the proposed point-to-BRep adjacency supervision, we extend two existing CAD datasets with the required annotations, and conduct a thorough experimental validation on them. The obtained results showcase the efficacy of SpelsNet and its topological supervision compared to a set of baselines and state-of-the-art approaches.
