Scaling Mesh Generation via Compressive TokenizationHaohan Weng, Zibo Zhao, Biwen Lei et al.
We propose a compressive yet effective mesh representation, Blocked and Patchified Tokenization (BPT), facilitating the generation of meshes exceeding 8k faces. BPT compresses mesh sequences by employing block-wise indexing and patch aggregation, reducing their length by approximately 75\% compared to the original sequences. This compression milestone unlocks the potential to utilize mesh data with significantly more faces, thereby enhancing detail richness and improving generation robustness. Empowered with the BPT, we have built a foundation mesh generative model training on scaled mesh data to support flexible control for point clouds and images. Our model demonstrates the capability to generate meshes with intricate details and accurate topology, achieving SoTA performance on mesh generation and reaching the level for direct product usage.

CtrlNeRF: The Generative Neural Radiation Fields for the Controllable Synthesis of High-fidelity 3D-Aware ImagesJian Liu, Zhen Yu
The neural radiance field (NERF) advocates learning the continuous representation of 3D geometry through a multilayer perceptron (MLP). By integrating this into a generative model, the generative neural radiance field (GRAF) is capable of producing images from random noise z without 3D supervision. In practice, the shape and appearance are modeled by z_s and z_a, respectively, to manipulate them separately during inference. However, it is challenging to represent multiple scenes using a solitary MLP and precisely control the generation of 3D geometry in terms of shape and appearance. In this paper, we introduce a controllable generative model (i.e. \textbf{CtrlNeRF}) that uses a single MLP network to represent multiple scenes with shared weights. Consequently, we manipulated the shape and appearance codes to realize the controllable generation of high-fidelity images with 3D consistency. Moreover, the model enables the synthesis of novel views that do not exist in the training sets via camera pose alteration and feature interpolation. Extensive experiments were conducted to demonstrate its superiority in 3D-aware image generation compared to its counterparts.
