ARC-Flow : Articulated, Resolution-Agnostic, Correspondence-Free Matching and Interpolation of 3D Shapes Under Flow Fields
This work presents a unified framework for the unsupervised prediction of physically plausible interpolations between two 3D articulated shapes and the automatic estimation of dense correspondence between them. Interpolation is modelled as a diffeomorphic transformation using a smooth, time-varying flow field governed by Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). This ensures topological consistency and non-intersecting trajectories while accommodating hard constraints, such as volume preservation, and soft constraints, \eg physical priors. Correspondence is recovered using an efficient Varifold formulation, that is effective on high-fidelity surfaces with differing parameterisations. By providing a simple skeleton for the source shape only, we impose physically motivated constraints on the deformation field and resolve symmetric ambiguities. This is achieved without relying on skinning weights or any prior knowledge of the skeleton's target pose configuration. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate competitive or superior performance over existing state-of-the-art approaches in both shape correspondence and interpolation tasks across standard datasets.

Nothing But Geometric Constraints: A Model-Free Method for Articulated Object Pose Estimation
We propose an unsupervised vision-based system to estimate the joint configurations of the robot arm from a sequence of RGB or RGB-D images without knowing the model a priori, and then adapt it to the task of category-in…
Optical Flow EstimationPose EstimationDeep Part Induction from Articulated Object Pairs
Object functionality is often expressed through part articulation -- as when the two rigid parts of a scissor pivot against each other to perform the cutting function. Such articulations are often similar across objects …
ObjectFIND: An Unsupervised Implicit 3D Model of Articulated Human Feet
In this paper we present a high fidelity and articulated 3D human foot model. The model is parameterised by a disentangled latent code in terms of shape, texture and articulated pose. While high fidelity models are typic…

We introduce ART, Articulated Reconstruction Transformer -- a category-agnostic, feed-forward model that reconstructs complete 3D articulated objects from only sparse, multi-state RGB images. Previous methods for articul…
FourierHandFlow: Neural 4D Hand Representation Using Fourier Query Flow
Recent 4D shape representations model continuous temporal evolution of implicit shapes by (1) learning query flows without leveraging shape and articulation priors or (2) decoding shape occupancies separately for each ti…
