P2Voxel: Pyramid Pivot Voxelization for 3D Mesh Tokenization

arXiv:2608. 07549v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Triangle meshes provide explicit and accurate surface geometry, yet their irregular topology connectivity makes 3D mesh tokenization a geometric sampling problem: how to sample and organize geometric evidence into compact, structured and learnable tokens.

ToCo-Mesh: Topology-Consistent Dynamic Mesh Reconstruction via Adaptive Tessellation and Surface-Aligned 2DGS

ToCo-Mesh is a dynamic mesh reconstruction framework that preserves topology consistency while achieving high‑fidelity geometry from multi‑view temporal images. It uses a dual‑mesh representation, coupling a canonical template mesh to time‑varying coarse guide meshes via barycentric parameterization, and applies error‑driven split‑and‑merge operations on the template to refine detail. A Surface‑Aligned 2DGS module anchors flattened Gaussians to mesh faces, using rendered normals to guide fine‑tuning and suppress surface irregularities, resulting in photorealistic rendering.

TriFlow: Generating Artist-Like 3D Mesh Topology via Nearest-Vertex Vector Fields

TriFlow introduces a generative method for creating compact 3D meshes with artist‑like triangle topology directly from input geometry such as signed distance fields. It represents mesh topology as a nearest‑vertex vector field (NVF) over the surface, trains a latent flow‑matching model to synthesize this field, and then clusters surface regions to guide a constrained quadric error metric simplification. The resulting meshes closely match the input geometry while exhibiting structured, artist‑like connectivity, achieving 90% lower Chamfer Distance and an 8× speedup over state‑of‑the‑art learning‑based approaches.

SeamFlow: Structure-Aware Flow Matching on Edge Probabilities for Artist-Like UV Unwrapping

SeamFlow is a new generative framework for 3D surface cutting and UV unwrapping that reformulates the discrete mesh‑cutting problem as continuous flow matching in a high‑dimensional edge‑probability space. By learning a deterministic mapping from a Gaussian prior to a target seam‑probability distribution and using an evolution network to couple local topological tokens with global shape priors, SeamFlow guides smooth probability flow through ODE solving. Compared with existing autoregressive generative methods, SeamFlow improves topology awareness, eliminates 3D spatial projection errors and artificial sequential‑order bias, and achieves exceptional semantic coherence with remarkably low parameterization distortion.

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.
