ArGEnT: Arbitrary Geometry-encoded Transformer for Operator Learning

arXiv:2602. 11626v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning solution operators on arbitrary geometries remains a central challenge in scientific machine learning, especially for many-query simulation, physics-informed learning, and evolving geometries requiring accurate, geometry-aware predictions at arbitrary spatial locations.

DreamCAD: Scaling Multi-modal CAD Generation using Differentiable Parametric Surfaces

arXiv:2603. 05607v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) relies on structured and editable geometric representations, yet existing generative methods are constrained by small annotated datasets with explicit design histories or boundary representation (BRep) labels.

Fluid-SDF: Ultra-Lightweight and Editable Implicit Shape Representation via Differentiable Primitives

Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have become the standard for continuous 2D shape modeling, but they suffer from black-box uneditability, vulnerability to noise, and high parameter counts that severely hinder deployment on edge devices. We introduce Fluid-SDF, a highly compressed, differentiable Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) framework that models shapes using explicit geometric primitives blended via a smooth minimum function.

CADFit: Precise Mesh-to-CAD Program Generation with Hybrid Optimization

arXiv:2605. 01171v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent progress, recovering parametric CAD construction sequences from geometric input, such as meshes or point clouds, is a key challenge for design and manufacturing, as existing CAD reconstruction and generation methods are largely restricted to difficult-to-edit formats like meshes or Breps or editable simple sketch-and-extrude pipelines and low-complexity datasets.
