• Abstract: Despite recent advances in geometric modeling, 3D mesh modeling still involves a considerable amount of manual labor by experts. In this paper, we introduce Mesh Draping: a neural method for transferring existing mesh structure from one shape to another. The method drapes the source mesh over the target geometry and at the same time seeks to preserve the carefully designed characteristics of the source mesh. At its core, our method deforms the source mesh using progressive positional encoding. We show that by leveraging gradually increasing frequencies to guide the neural optimization, we are able to achieve stable and high quality mesh transfer. Our approach is simple and requires little user guidance, compared to contemporary surface mapping techniques which rely on parametrization or careful manual tuning. Most importantly, Mesh Draping is a parameterization-free method, and thus applicable to a variety of target shape representations, including point clouds, polygon soups, and non-manifold meshes. We demonstrate that the transferred meshing remains faithful to the source mesh design characteristics, and at the same time fits the target geometry well.

  Meshes are widely used in 3D computer vision and graphics, but their irregular topology poses challenges in applying them to existing neural network architectures. Recent advances in mesh neural networks turn to remeshing and push the boundary of pioneer methods that solely take the raw meshes as input. We propose SieveNet, a novel paradigm that takes into account both the regular topology and the exact geometry.

  We propose Neural Mesh Flow (NMF) to generate two-manifold meshes for genus-0 shapes. NMF is a shape auto-encoder consisting of several Neural Ordinary Differential Equation (NODE) blocks that learn accurate mesh geometry by progressively deforming a spherical mesh. Our experiments demonstrate that NMF facilitates several applications such as single-view mesh reconstruction, global shape parameterization, texture mapping, shape deformation and correspondence.

  This paper introduces Neural Subdivision, a novel framework for data-driven coarseto-fine geometry modeling. We optimize for the same set of network weights across all local mesh patches, thus providing an architecture that is not constrained to a specific input mesh, fixed genus, or category. We demonstrate that even when trained on a single high-resolution mesh our method generates reasonable subdivisions for novel shapes.
