Radiant Triangle Soup with Soft Connectivity Forces for 3D Reconstruction and Novel View Synthesis
In this work, we introduce an inference-time optimization framework utilizing triangles to represent the geometry and appearance of the scene. More specifically, we develop a scene optimization algorithm for triangle soup, a collection of disconnected semi-transparent triangle primitives. Compared to the current most-widely used primitives for 3D scene representation, namely Gaussian splats, triangles allow for more expressive color interpolation, and benefit from a large algorithmic infrastructure for downstream tasks. Triangles, unlike full-rank Gaussian kernels, naturally combine to form surfaces. We formulate connectivity forces between triangles during optimization, encouraging explicit, but soft, surface continuity in 3D. We perform experiments on a representative 3D reconstruction dataset and show competitive photometric and geometric results.

DiffSoup: Direct Differentiable Rasterization of Triangle Soup for Extreme Radiance Field Simplification
Radiance field reconstruction aims to recover high-quality 3D representations from multi-view RGB images. Recent advances, such as 3D Gaussian splatting, enable real-time rendering with high visual fidelity on sufficient…
Triangle Splatting SLAM
We present a dense RGB-D SLAM system using differentiable triangles as the 3D map representation. While 3D Gaussian Splatting has emerged as the leading method for novel-view synthesis, triangles remain the standard prim…
LOD-GS: Achieving Levels of Detail using Scalable Gaussian Soup
Current 3D Gaussian Splatting methods often overlook structured information, leading to disorganized 3D Gaussians that compromise memory and structure efficiency, particularly in Level-of-Detail (LOD) management. Thi…
ManagementMeshFlow: Mesh Generation with Equivariant Flow Matching
Meshes are among the most common 3D scene representations, but directly generating meshes is challenging because the representation contains important symmetries, including permutation invariance of faces and vertices. M…
SpaceMesh: A Continuous Representation for Learning Manifold Surface Meshes
Meshes are ubiquitous in visual computing and simulation, yet most existing machine learning techniques represent meshes only indirectly, e.g. as the level set of a scalar field or deformation of a template, or as a diso…
