Evaluating Assembly-Part Semantic Knowledge in Language Models through User-Provided Names in CAD Files
The natural language names designers use in CAD software are a valuable source of semantic knowledge.
This work investigates the value in the natural language part and document names users provide when they create CAD models. In a first step towards multi-modal text-CAD learning, our results show that Large Language Models are able to leverage the noisy text data to predict part-part and part-whole relationships, with direct applications in automations and recommendations for part re-use, auto-complete, assembly categorizations, smart tool suggestions and library part recommendations.
