Automatically obtaining high-quality watertight meshes in order to derive well-defined occupancy grids or signed distance functions is a common problem in 3D vision. In this article, I present a mesh fusion approach for obtaining watertight meshes. In combination with a standard mesh simplification algorithm, this approach produces high-quality, but lightweight, watertight meshes.
Last week, I attended my very first CVPR in Salt Lake City, where I also presented my work on weakly-supervised 3D shape completion. In the course of the week, I attended several tutorials as well as all oral and poster sessions. In this article, I want to share my notes and some general comments.
This article presents the poster for our CVPR’18 paper on weakly-supervised 3D shape completion. The poster also includes improved results form our latest ArXiv pre-print. Meet us in Salt Lake City, Tuesday June 18th, to discuss.
At at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, PhD students — which are enrolled in the Saarbrücken Graduate School for Computer Science — have to pass a qualification exam. In this article, I want to share the slides of my qualification exam talk.
We are releasing the code and data corresponding to our ArXiv pre-print on weakly-supervised 3D shape completion — a follow-up work on our earlier CVPR’18 paper. The article provides links to the GitHub repositories and data downloads as well as detailed descriptions. It also highlights the differences between the two papers.
In this follow-up on our CVPR’18 work, we extend our weakly-supervised 3D shape completion approach to obtain high-quality shape predictions, and also present updated, synthetic benchmarks on ShapeNet and ModelNet. The paper is now available as pre-print on ArXiv. Abstract, some experimental results and a comparison to our CVPR’18 work can be found in this article.
Learning 3D shape completion under weak supervision; on ShapeNet, ModelNet, KITTI and Kinect data; published at CVPR and on ArXiv.
Finally, we are able to release the code and the data corresponding to our CVPR’18 paper on “Learning 3D Shape Completion from Laser Scan Data with Weak Supervision”. In this article, I want to briefly outline the released code and data.
Currently, both OpenCV 2 and OpenCV 3 seem to have some minor issues with CUDA 9. However, CUDA 9 is required for the latest generation of NVidia graphics cards. In this article, based on this StackOverflow question, I want to discuss a very simple patch to get OpenCV 2 running with CUDA 9.
