• Abstract: We propose a novel method for reconstructing explicit parameterized surfaces from Signed Distance Fields (SDFs), a widely used implicit neural representation (INR) for 3D surfaces. While traditional reconstruction methods like Marching Cubes extract discrete meshes that lose the continuous and differentiable properties of INRs, our approach iteratively contracts a parameterized initial sphere to conform to the target SDF shape, preserving differentiability and surface parameterization throughout. This enables downstream applications such as texture mapping, geometry processing, animation, and finite element analysis. Evaluated on the typical geometric shapes and parts of the ABC dataset, our method achieves competitive reconstruction quality, maintaining smoothness and differentiability crucial for advanced computer graphics and geometric deep learning applications.

  It is non-trivial to simultaneously recover meticulous geometry and preserve smoothness across regions with differing characteristics. We propose ND-SDF, which learns a Normal Deflection field to represent the angular deviation between the scene normal and the prior normal. Our method not only obtains smooth weakly textured regions such as walls and floors but also preserves the geometric details of complex structures.

  We propose a novel 3D representation, Neural Vector Fields (NVF), which adopts the explicit learning process to manipulate meshes and implicit unsigned distance function (UDF) representation to break the barriers in resolution and topology. We evaluate both NVFs on four surface reconstruction scenarios, including watertight vs non-watertight shapes, category-agnostic reconstruction vs category-unseen reconstruction, category-specific, and cross-domain reconstruction.
