The paper introduces VAD, a lightweight, network‑free method for computing Unsigned Distance Fields (UDFs) from unoriented point clouds. It assigns bi‑directional normals using two Voronoi‑based criteria, diffuses these normals to approximate a UDF gradient field, and then integrates to recover the final UDF. Experiments show VAD handles watertight, open, non‑manifold, and non‑orientable geometries efficiently and stably.

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.
P-CORE introduces a self‑supervised surface consistency technique for point‑based neural representations, enabling robust adaptation to large deformations without needing ground‑truth deformed images. By generating random deformations and enforcing that the predicted surface after deformation matches the deformation applied to the original surface prediction, the method leverages attention‑based point representations with a learned interpolation kernel. Experiments on synthetic benchmarks and real‑world datasets show improved zero‑shot editing performance and reduced artifacts compared to existing point‑based approaches.

Non-rigid 3D shape matching is a fundamental task in computer vision and graphics. In this paper, we propose a hybrid self-supervised method based on a coarse-to-fine strategy, which ensures consistency between the coarse mapping and the refined correspondence produced by our refinement module.
arXiv:2511. 02659v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Focusing on implicit neural representations, we present a novel in situ training protocol that employs limited memory buffers of full and sketched data samples, where the sketched data are leveraged to prevent catastrophic forgetting.

NeuralSRNF is a new framework that enables efficient statistical shape analysis and generation of genus‑zero 3D and 4D objects undergoing nonrigid deformations. It replaces costly numerical SRNF inversion with a continuous, resolution‑agnostic neural representation that accurately reconstructs shapes and computes inverse SRNF maps in under 3 s, compared to over 10 min for traditional methods. Experiments on multiple datasets show that NeuralSRNF outperforms existing techniques in accuracy and speed across tasks such as geodesic computation, deformation transfer, statistical summarization, and shape generation.

CANTO is a transformer neural operator that directly maps continuous CAD geometry—represented as sequences of NURBS patches—to physical fields without requiring meshing. It tokenizes control points, knot vectors, and weights to predict continuous surface and volume fields at arbitrary query locations. Evaluated on automotive and aircraft aerodynamics benchmarks, CANTO achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy, notably a 19.8% reduction in surface‑pressure error on HiLiftAeroML, and enables gradient‑based inverse design, finding lower‑drag designs on AhmedML.
