• Title: Deep Manifold Prior
• Authors: Matheus Gadelha, Rui Wang, Subhransu Maji
• Abstract summary: We present a prior for manifold structured data, such as surfaces of 3D shapes, where deep neural networks are adopted to reconstruct a target shape using gradient descent. We show that surfaces generated this way are smooth, with limiting behavior characterized by Gaussian processes, and we mathematically derive such properties for fully-connected as well as convolutional networks.

• Abstract: We present a prior for manifold structured data, such as surfaces of 3D shapes, where deep neural networks are adopted to reconstruct a target shape using gradient descent starting from a random initialization. We show that surfaces generated this way are smooth, with limiting behavior characterized by Gaussian processes, and we mathematically derive such properties for fully-connected as well as convolutional networks. We demonstrate our method in a variety of manifold reconstruction applications, such as point cloud denoising and interpolation, achieving considerably better results against competitive baselines while requiring no training data. We also show that when training data is available, our method allows developing alternate parametrizations of surfaces under the framework of AtlasNet, leading to a compact network architecture and better reconstruction results on standard image to shape reconstruction benchmarks.

  We propose a novel instance segmentation method geared towards Natural Resource Monitoring (NRM) imagery. We formulate the problem as Bayesian maximum a posteriori inference which, in learning the individual object contours, incorporates shape, location, and position priors. In experiments, we tackle the challenging, real-world problem of segmenting individual dead tree crowns and precise contours.

  We present a scheme to directly generate manifold, polygonal meshes of complex connectivity as the output of a neural network. Our key innovation is to define a continuous latent connectivity space at each mesh, which implies the discrete mesh. In applications, this approach not only yields high-quality outputs from generative models, but also enables directly learning challenging geometry processing tasks such as mesh repair.

  We introduce Neural Poisson Surface Reconstruction (nPSR), an architecture for shape reconstruction that addresses the challenge of recovering 3D shapes from points. nPSR exhibits two main advantages: First, it enables efficient training on low-resolution data while achieving comparable performance at high-resolution evaluation. Overall, the neural Poisson surface reconstruction not only improves upon the limitations of classical deep neural networks in shape reconstruction but also achieves superior results in terms of reconstruction quality, running time, and resolution agnosticism.
