Abstract

We present PointGT, a point-based 3D representation that enables simultaneous editing of object geometry and appearance. Existing reconstruction and view synthesis techniques produce volumetric 3D representations that are high-quality and photorealistic, but are difficult to edit. In particular, recent efforts to enable texture editing for 3D Gaussian Splatting representations are not compatible with geometry edits and deformations. Our method combines a point-based representation that is well-suited for geometry deformations with a learned UV mapping technique that enables high-resolution texture editing. We show that PointGT enables fine-grained editing of both geometry and texture in point-based neural representations with high rendering quality.

Real-Time Neural Hair G-Buffer Anti-Aliasing

We propose a lightweight real-time method for reconstructing strand-based hair G-Buffers from severely undersampled rasterized inputs. Our pipeline first applies neural spatial reconstruction and temporal accumulation to recover hair coverage, i.e., fractional hair visibility within a pixel, and tangent. It then uses a tangent-guided reconstruction step to complete the position, which is subsequently used for physically based deferred hair shading. We evaluate our method across a diverse set of hairstyles, including straight, wavy, afro, and ponytail styles, under both static and dynamic scenarios. Our method achieves higher hair reconstruction quality than general industrial neural reconstruction solutions such as DLSS and FSR.

Evaluating Constrained Iterative Refinement for Scalable Vector Graphics Generation with Off-the-Shelf VLMs

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVGs) power much of the modern visual ecosystem, yet state-of-the-art generative models focus almost entirely on rasterized images. We explore whether inference-time methods can unlock SVG generation capabilities in off-the-shelf vision-language models (VLMs). We systematically evaluate a constrained iterative refinement harness that combines visual feedback, structured editing, and constrained decoding to characterize the capabilities and limitations of current VLMs for SVG generation. Across multiple VLMs and generation settings, we find that constrained decoding improves compilation success rates, while iterative refinement reveals a deficit in visual reasoning and self-correction. Our results highlight both the promise and current limitations of using inference-time methods to adapt general-purpose VLMs for SVG generation.

Proximity3D: Shape from Capacitive Proximity on Sensing Manifold

Most shape reconstruction methods assume measurements defined over planar sensing domains, such as RGB images or depth maps. In this paper, we use a curved capacitive textile as a shape sensor, treating its surface as a non-planar sensing manifold. Each scan is represented as a capacitive proximity field on this manifold, induced by the interaction between the curved electrode layout and nearby object geometry. We introduce a multi-view feedforward reconstruction model that aggregates these fields across known sensor views and recovers the observed object shape. Simulated and physical experiments demonstrate robust reconstruction from capacitive proximity signals acquired on curved sensing surfaces, pointing toward a new route to robotic near-field geometric awareness via embodied sensing.
