NHO: A Neural Hamiltonian Operator for Anchor-based Region Localization and Dense Correspondance

NHO introduces a neural Hamiltonian operator that uses sparse anchors and the intrinsic geometry of a partial shape to learn a localized eigenspace encoding both region support and intrinsic coordinates for dense correspondence. The method parameterizes the Hamiltonian potential as an intrinsic neural field and optimizes it with anchor evidence, spectral, and geometric constraints, employing reciprocal refinement between operator estimation and correspondence recovery. After iterative refinement, aggregated eigenfunction energy yields final localization and initializes dense correspondence refinement, achieving competitive accuracy and robustness to scaling and rotation.

RecGen3D: Reconstruction-Guided 3D Generation in a Shared Canonical Space

RecGen3D is a framework that merges feed‑forward reconstruction and diffusion‑based generation to address the trade‑off between reconstruction fidelity and generative plausibility in sparse‑view 3D modeling. By aligning both models in a shared canonical space and using decoupled cooperative learning, the system stabilizes training and allows the reconstruction module to supply canonical geometric anchors while the diffusion generator refines and completes the structure. Experiments show that RecGen3D outperforms existing methods in producing complete and consistent 3D models from sparse observations.

TokenMatch: 3D Mesh Correspondence Transformer with Curvature-Guided Tokenisation

TokenMatch is a transformer-based model that estimates 3D shape correspondences by adaptively tokenising meshes into curvature-guided patches. Trained only on the BeCoS partial-to-partial dataset, it generalises to full-shape matching without retraining, using self‑ and cross‑attention to learn patch‑ and point‑level relations. Evaluated on CP2P, PSMAL, BeCoS, FAUST, SCAPE, and SHREC'19, TokenMatch consistently outperforms existing methods in mean geodesic error and intersection‑over‑union while achieving sub‑second inference speeds.

RODR: Riemannian Orthogonally Decoupled Regularization for Disentangled Manifold Representation

Point cloud denoising is essentially a geometric recovery task that aims to reconstruct the intrinsic structure of a smooth 2D Riemannian manifold embedded in R^3 from noisy, discrete ambient-space samples. Despite the remarkable progress of modern manifold-aware encoders and generative transport models in geometric representation learning, a fundamental objective-geometry mismatch remains underexplored.
