KDH-CAD: Knowledge-data hybrid CAD learning under data scarcity

arXiv:2606. 01702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning in computer-aided design (CAD) remains fundamentally constrained by the data scarcity challenge: authentic CAD data is difficult to collect at scale, while synthetic data may not faithfully reflect real design practice.

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.

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.

ArtisanCAD: An Industrial-Level CAD Agent with Expert-Grounded Knowledge Distillation

Computer-aided design (CAD) for industrial components requires long-horizon procedural modeling, robust feature dependencies, editable parametric geometry, and production-grade B-Rep execution. Existing text-to-CAD methods have made promising progress in generating CAD programs from natural-language descriptions, but they still struggle when user prompts are ambiguous, underspecified, or only describe high-level design intent.

Towards a Physics Foundation Model

arXiv:2509. 13805v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Foundation models have revolutionized natural language processing through a ``train once, deploy anywhere'' paradigm, where a single pre-trained model adapts to countless downstream tasks without retraining.

Embodied CAD: Solver-Grounded LLM Agents for Parametric B-Rep Assembly Modeling

arXiv:2606. 31252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can write plausible CAD scripts, but reliable industrial CAD modeling requires more than syntactically valid code: every feature, placement, and assembly relation must be accepted by an exact geometric kernel while remaining editable as parametric boundary representation geometry.
