We perform research in surface reconstruction from point clouds, geometry processing and geometry representations. We use parallel processing of thousands of GPU cores to enable flash geometry operations in real-time. Novel data structures are evaluated to reduce the time complexity of geometric operations, such as collision detection or occlusion-aware surface processing. In computational geometry, we prove concepts relating samples to curves and manifolds. We also research novel surface description paradigms and according operators, representing large point cloud data in a probabilistic way.

General system overview. From a seeded user sketch, the silhouette image, the normal and depth maps are translated and a base mesh is determined. Using those, a differentiable renderer is used in order to predict a 3d model. Kerstin Hofer (Department Creative Technologies, University of Applied Sciences Salzburg, Salzburg, Austria)

We present Points2Surf, a method to reconstruct an accurate implicit surface from a noisy point cloud. Unlike current data-driven surface reconstruction methods like DeepSDF and AtlasNet, it is patch-based, improves detail reconstruction, and unlike Screened Poisson Reconstruction (SPR), a learned prior of low-level patch shapes improves reconstruction accuracy. Note the quality of reconstructions, both geometric and topological, against the original surfaces. The ability of Points2Surf to generalize to new shapes makes it the first learning-based approach with significant generalization ability under both geometric and topological variations.
