Abstract

A device may receive an architectural floor plan of an interior of a building, and may process the architectural floor plan, with a vectorization model, to generate a vectorized floor plan of polygons. The device may process the vectorized floor plan, with a convex hull model, to create convex hull polygons around the polygons of the vectorized floor plan, and may reduce a quantity of vertices associated with the convex hull polygons to generate simplified convex hull polygons. The device may generate, based on the simplified convex hull polygons, one of a visibility graph that identifies potential paths through the interior of the building, or a walking path network through the interior. The device may process the one of the visibility graph or the walking path network, with a pathfinding model, to identify paths through the interior of the building, and may perform actions based on the identified paths.
