3d Shape Understanding And Generation, Matheus Gadelha
3d Shape Understanding And Generation, Matheus Gadelha
Doctoral Dissertations
In recent years, Machine Learning techniques have revolutionized solutions to longstanding image-based problems, like image classification, generation, semantic segmentation, object detection and many others. However, if we want to be able to build agents that can successfully interact with the real world, those techniques need to be capable of reasoning about the world as it truly is: a tridimensional space. There are two main challenges while handling 3D information in machine learning models. First, it is not clear what is the best 3D representation. For images, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) operating on raster images yield the best results in virtually …

Deep-Learned Generative Representations Of 3d Shape Families, Haibin Huang
Doctoral Dissertations
Digital representations of 3D shapes are becoming increasingly useful in several emerging applications, such as 3D printing, virtual reality and augmented reality. However, traditional modeling softwares require users to have extensive modeling experience, artistic skills and training to handle their complex interfaces and perform the necessary low-level geometric manipulation commands. Thus, there is an emerging need for computer algorithms that help novice and casual users to quickly and easily generate 3D content. In this work, I will present deep learning algorithms that are capable of automatically inferring parametric representations of shape families, which can be used to generate new 3D …
