Rethinking 3D Shape Generation: Diffusion over Superquadrics
Diffusion models have advanced 3D shape generation, yet most methods still denoise in high-cardinality spaces (e.g., voxel/SDF grids, meshes, or point clouds), which is computationally and memory intensive and makes it difficult to scale in terms of both higher resolution and stronger controllability. We rethink the diffusion representation and propose to move diffusion from dense geometry to compact geometric primitives, representing each shape as a small set of superquadrics. Instead of operating on thousands to millions of geometric representation values, we leverage 7KB superquadric parameters (pose, size, and shape), drastically reducing diffusion-state dimensionality and per-step compute/memory. Our diffusion-over-superquadrics improves scalability by supporting broader capabilities (e.g., resolution-free point-cloud decoding, part-level editing, and constraint-based design) and achieving competitive surface-fidelity and distributional performance on standard benchmarks after point-cloud decoding, while enabling efficient generation within 0.6s per shape for most conditions.

Supertoroid fitting of objects with holes for robotic grasping and scene generation
One of the strategies to detect the pose and shape of unknown objects is their geometric modeling, consisting on fitting known geometric entities. Classical geometric modeling fits simple shapes such as spheres or cylind…

Interpreting objects with basic geometric primitives has long been studied in computer vision. Among geometric primitives, superquadrics are well known for their ability to represent a wide range of shapes with few param…
Superquadrics Revisited: Learning 3D Shape Parsing beyond Cuboids
Abstracting complex 3D shapes with parsimonious part-based representations has been a long standing goal in computer vision. This paper presents a learning-based solution to this problem which goes beyond the traditional…
Reinforcement LearningHierarchical Superquadric Decomposition with Implicit Space Separation
We introduce a new method to reconstruct 3D objects using a set of volumetric primitives, i.e., superquadrics. The method hierarchically decomposes a target 3D object into pairs of superquadrics recovering finer and fine…

Superquadrics provide a compact representation of common shapes and have been used both for object/surface modelling in computer graphics and as object-part representation in computer vision and robotics. Superquadrics r…
