In this paper we consider 3D axis-symmetric (AS) object reconstruction from single cone-beam x-ray projection data. Traditional x-ray CT fails to capture fleeting state of material due to the long time for data acquisition at all angles.…

3D scene reconstruction from 2D images has been a long-standing task. Instead of estimating per-frame depth maps and fusing them in 3D, recent research leverages the neural implicit surface as a unified representation for 3D reconstruction.…

Radiography is widely used in orthopedics for its affordability and low radiation exposure. 3D reconstruction from a single radiograph, so-called 2D-3D reconstruction, offers the possibility of various clinical applications, but achieving…

We present a simple yet effective method for skeleton-free motion retargeting. Previous methods transfer motion between high-resolution meshes, failing to preserve the inherent local-part motions in the mesh. Addressing this issue, our…

Many surface cues support three-dimensional shape perception, but people can sometimes still see shape when these features are missing -- in extreme cases, even when an object is completely occluded, as when covered with a draped cloth. We…

This research proposes a novel adjustable algorithm for reconstructing 3D body shapes from front and side silhouettes. Most recent silhouette-based approaches use a deep neural network trained by silhouettes and key points to estimate the…
