Laplacian2Mesh: Laplacian-Based Mesh Understanding

Project | Paper

This repository is the official PyTorch implementation of our paper, Laplacian2Mesh: Laplacian-Based Mesh Understanding.

News

• :fire: This paper was accepted by IEEE TVCG
• :star: Gave a talk at CVM2023 on Laplacian2Mesh.

Requirements

• python 3.7
• CUDA 11.3
• Pytorch 1.10.0

To install other python requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Installation

clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/QiujieDong/Laplacian2Mesh.git
cd Laplacian2Mesh

Fetch Data

This repo provides training scripts for classification and segmentation on the following datasets:

• SHREC-11
• manifold40
• humanbody
• coseg_aliens
• coseg_chairs
• coseg_vases

To download the preprocessed data, run

sh ./scripts/<DATASET_NAME>/get_data.sh

The coseg_aliens, coseg_chairs, and coseg_vases are downloaded via the script of coseg_aliens. This repo uses the original Manifold40 dataset without re-meshing via the Loop Subdivision.

Preprocessing

To get the input features by preprocessing:

sh ./scripts/<DATASET_NAME>/prepaer_data.sh

The operation of preprocessing is one-time.

Training

To train the model on the provided dataset(s) in this paper, run this command:

sh ./scripts/<DATASET_NAME>/train.sh

The training process is time-consuming, you can refer to DiffusionNet to optimize the code to speed up the training.

Evaluation

To evaluate the model on a dataset, run:

sh ./scripts/<DATASET_NAME>/test.sh

Visualize

After testing the segmentation network, there will be colored shapes in the visualization_result directory.
