Affine subspaces of Euclidean spaces are also referred to as flats. A standard task in computer vision or more generally in engineering and applied sciences is fitting a flat to a set of points which is commonly solved using the PCA. We generalize this technique to enable fitting a flat to a set of…
We show how shadows can be efficiently generated in differentiable rendering of triangle meshes. Our central observation is that pre-filtered shadow mapping, a technique for approximating shadows based on rendering from the perspective of a light, can be combined with existing differentiable rasteri…
Super-Fibonacci spirals are an extension of Fibonacci spirals, enabling fast generation of an arbitrary but fixed number of 3D orientations. The algorithm is simple and fast. A comprehensive evaluation comparing to other methods shows that the generated sets of orientations have low discrepancy, min…
Images of a real scene taken with a camera commonly differ from synthetic images of a virtual replica of the same scene, despite advances in light transport simulation and calibration. By explicitly co-developing the Structured-Light Scanning (SLS) hardware and rendering pipeline we are able to achi…
We introduce ABC-Dataset, a collection of one million Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models for research of geometric deep learning methods and applications. Each model is a collection of explicitly parametrized curves and surfaces, providing ground truth for differential quantities, patch segmentation…
