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

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

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.

Nexus: Native Mesh Generation with Diffusion

Generating high-quality triangle meshes is essential for film, gaming, and interactive 3D applications. Mainstream methods rely on mesh serialization and autoregressive processes, which stuggles in effective inference and is sensitive to error accumulation.

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.

Flow-Corrected Shape Optimization: Taming Manifold Drift in High-Dimensional 3D Models

Optimizing 3D shapes within the latent spaces of deep generative models is fundamental to computer assisted engineering, yet remains prone to a critical failure mode we term manifold drift: the tendency of gradient-based optimization to move latent vectors away from the manifold of valid shapes. This problem is exacerbated in state-of-the-art 3D shape generative models that operate in increasingly high-dimensional latent spaces where valid shapes occupy a vanishingly small fraction of the full space.
