Converting hand-drawn sketches into structured 3D geometries remains challenging due to the difficulty of representing non-Euclidean surfaces and maintaining topological consistency. Existing generative models such as GANs, NeRFs, and diffusion architectures often fail to produce editable manifolds directly usable in downstream design workflows. We present Sketch2MinSurf, a hybrid vision-language and geometric optimization framework that integrates vision-language guidance with minimal-surface theory to generate smooth and editable 3D surfaces from hand-drawn sketches. The core of our approach is a spatial-topological encoding that represents geometry as tuples of node coordinates and real/virtual edge skeletons, enabling stable topological control during generation. We further introduce the Sketch2MinSurf Structural Loss (S2MS-Loss), a reward-modulated objective that jointly constrains geometric reconstruction and topological coherence. On a test set of 100 sketches, Sketch2MinSurf achieves a topological similarity score of 0.844, outperforming existing sketch-to-shape baselines. The generated manifolds are directly editable and free from non-manifold artifacts. A public art installation at a university showcases the method's potential for human-intent-driven 3D form generation. The dataset and code are available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/Sketch2MinSurf/.

Knowledge graph completion (KGC) aims to automatically infer missing facts in multi-relational data by mapping entities and relations into continuous representation spaces. Recent region-based embedding models have shown great promise in capturing complex logical patterns by representing relations as geometric regions. However, these models inevitably suffer from absolute boundary constraints during optimization. Conversely, without such constraints, relation regions expand indefinitely. To address the limitation, we propose \textbf{CORE} (Cyclic Orthotope Relation Embedding), a novel KGC model that embeds entities and relations onto a boundary-less torus manifold.CORE represents relations as cyclic orthotopes on the torus manifold, allowing regions to seamlessly wrap around spatial boundaries to ensure smooth gradient conduction. Furthermore, an adaptive width regularization is introduced to prevent unconditional region expansion. Theoretical analysis proves that CORE can capture various complex relation patterns such as subsumption and intersection. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that CORE achieves highly competitive performance, significantly improving link prediction accuracy in dense semantic environments.
