Neural implicit representations, which encode a surface as the level set of a neural network applied to spatial coordinates, have proven to be remarkably effective for optimizing, compressing, and generating 3D geometry.

To train NSM, we present a self-supervised data collection pipeline that generates pairwise shape assembly data with ground truth by randomly cutting an object mesh into two parts, resulting in a dataset that consists of 19, 226 shape assembly pairs with numerous object meshes and diverse cut types.

During inference, our method takes a coarse triangle mesh as input and recursively subdivides it to a finer geometry by applying the fixed topological updates of Loop Subdivision, but predicting vertex positions using a neural network conditioned on the local geometry of a patch.

In this technical report, we investigate efficient representations of articulated objects (e. g. human bodies), which is an important problem in computer vision and graphics.

Many machine learning models operate on images, but ignore the fact that images are 2D projections formed by 3D geometry interacting with light, in a process called rendering.
