HybridSDF: Combining Deep Implicit Shapes and Geometric Primitives for 3D Shape Representation and Manipulation

Pascal Fua, Pierre Bruno Baqué, Subeesh Vasu, Nicolas Talabot

Deep implicit surfaces excel at modeling generic shapes but do not always capture the regularities present in manufactured objects, which is something simple geometric primitives are particularly good at. In this paper, we propose a representation combinin ...

Neural Parts: Learning Expressive 3D Shape Abstractions with Invertible Neural Networks

Angelos Katharopoulos

Impressive progress in 3D shape extraction led to representations that can capture object geometries with high fidelity. In parallel, primitive-based methods seek to represent objects as semantically consistent part arrangements. However, due to the simpli ...

Simulating Infiltration as a Sequence of Pinning and De-pinning Processes

Andreas Mortensen, William Craig Carter

The infiltration of a non-wetting liquid, such as molten metal, into a porous solid, such as a ceramic preform, is influenced by the wetting angle of the liquid on the solid. The link between local wetting and the minimum pressure required for initiation o ...

Immersed boundary-conformal isogeometric method for linear elliptic problems

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei

We present a novel isogeometric method, namely the Immersed Boundary-Conformal Method (IBCM), that features a layer of discretization conformal to the boundary while employing a simple background mesh for the remaining domain. In this manner, we leverage t ...

GarNet++: Improving Fast and Accurate Static 3D Cloth Draping by Curvature Loss

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Shaifali Parashar, Victor Constantin, Erhan Gündogdu

In this paper, we tackle the problem of static 3D cloth draping on virtual human bodies. We introduce a two-stream deep network model that produces a visually plausible draping of a template cloth on virtual 3D bodies by extracting features from both the b ...

Volumetric untrimming: Precise decomposition of trimmed trivariates into tensor products

Pablo Antolin Sanchez

3D objects, modeled using Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD) tools, are traditionally represented using a boundary representation (B-rep), and typically use spline functions to parameterize these boundary surfaces. However, recent development in physic ...

Learning to Segment 3D Linear Structures Using Only 2D Annotations

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Mateusz Kozinski, Agata Justyna Mosinska

We propose a loss function for training a Deep Neural Network (DNN) to segment volumetric data, that accommodates ground truth annotations of 2D projections of the training volumes, instead of annotations of the 3D volumes themselves. In consequence, we si ...
