arXiv:2605. 10873v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recovering editable CAD programs from images or 3D observations is central to AI-assisted design, but progress is difficult to measure because existing evaluations are fragmented across datasets, modalities, and metrics.
arXiv:2606. 30429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-3D systems can now synthesize a mechanical part from a single sentence, yet the result is a shape to render, not a design to edit.
arXiv:2605. 28579v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have recently advanced text-driven 3D generation, yet Text-to-CAD remains far from supporting industrial product design.
CADReasoner is a model that iteratively refines its CAD reconstruction by comparing the input shape with the predicted mesh, outputting a runnable CadQuery Python program. It fuses multi‑view renders and point clouds and uses a scan‑simulation protocol to bridge realism gaps during training and evaluation. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on DeepCAD, Fusion 360, and MCB benchmarks for both clean and scan‑sim tracks.
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.
CADKnitter is a compositional CAD generation framework that uses geometric-guiding cues to steer diffusion sampling, enabling the creation of complementary CAD parts that satisfy both geometric constraints of an existing model and semantic constraints from a text prompt. The authors introduce KnitCAD, a dataset of over 310,000 CAD models paired with textual prompts and assembly metadata to support training and evaluation. Experiments show that CADKnitter outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines by a clear margin.
