GeoCode: Intuitive 3D Shape Editor

The tool maps a point cloud or a sketch input to an intuitively editable parameter space.

Researchers presented a new technique for 3D shape synthesis called GeoCode. It maps a point cloud or a sketch input to an intuitively editable parameter space, allowing users to easily change the geometry.

"We build a novel program that enforces a complex set of rules and enables users to perform intuitive and controlled high-level edits that procedurally propagate at a low level to the entire shape."

It produces high-quality mesh outputs by construction using a neural network to map a given point cloud or sketch to the interpretable parameter space. The researchers claim that GeoCode can infer and recover 3D shapes more accurately compared to existing techniques. They believe that current approaches either lack straightforward interpretable encoding or output coarse geometry – the problems their technique aims to solve.

    Is this supposed to be like a stable diffusion (Img2Img) for 3D models? So you give it a model/sketch and and it turns it into a procedural model you can then tweak with generated controls?

    I don't get it? What can it do that Houdini can't?
