Abstract:Flow matching over carefully designed latent representations has recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for topology-aware mesh generation. Existing approaches, however, model vertices and connectivity jointly in a joint latent space, entangling continuous vertex geometry with discrete combinatorial structure; this complicates flow learning and manifests as drifting vertices and broken surfaces. We present LATO.2, a factorized flow matching framework that decomposes mesh generation into a vertex flow followed by a connectivity flow conditioned on the realized vertices, with both stages anchored to a shared coarse voxel scaffold. Dedicated VAEs underpin the two stages, recovering vertices at sub-voxel precision and embedding discrete connectivity into a continuous latent space. We demonstrate two advantages unique to this factorization: (i) part-wise generation, in which the scaffold is partitioned and each part synthesized at full latent capacity, yielding substantially higher-resolution meshes than a monolithic latent permits; and (ii) topology-adaptive editing, in which manipulating first-stage vertices induces the corresponding connectivity without re-optimization. Experiments show that LATO.2 surpasses state-of-the-art topology-aware mesh generators in geometric fidelity and connectivity quality.
Abstract:Mesh subdivision is a fundamental operation for converting coarse, editable meshes into high-resolution surfaces, with broad applications in digital asset creation. Classical rule-based schemes rely on fixed local refinement rules and often produce over-smoothed surfaces. Recent neural subdivision methods improve detail synthesis, but remain constrained by local modeling and exhibit limited generalizability. We present SubdivAR, a neural mesh subdivision framework based on our proposed Mesh Autoregressive Representation (MAR). MAR arranges meshes at different subdivision levels into an ordered scale sequence, reformulating subdivision as autoregressive next-scale prediction. To support this formulation, we introduce a Hybrid Topology-Aware Transformer that combines global semantic attention with topology-constrained local feature aggregation. SubdivAR adopts a next-scale coordinate prediction paradigm, regressing vertex offsets at each refinement stage to preserve subdivision topology while recovering fine-grained geometric details. To enable reliable learning, we construct FII-40K, a curated dataset of nearly 40,000 high-quality meshes with multi-level subdivision supervision. Experiments show that SubdivAR outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, reducing Hausdorff Distance and Chamfer Distance by 18.8% and 14.2%, respectively, and demonstrates strong robustness on complex open-surface geometries.
Abstract:Meshes serve as a primary representation for 3D assets. Autoregressive mesh generators serialize faces into sequences and train on truncated segments with sliding-window inference to cope with memory limits. However, this mismatch breaks long-range geometric dependencies, producing holes and fragmented components. To address this critical limitation, we introduce MeshRipple, which expands a mesh outward from an active generation frontier, akin to a ripple on a surface. MeshRipple rests on three key innovations: a frontier-aware BFS tokenization that aligns the generation order with surface topology; an expansive prediction strategy that maintains coherent, connected surface growth; and a sparse-attention global memory that provides an effectively unbounded receptive field to resolve long-range topological dependencies. This integrated design enables MeshRipple to generate meshes with high surface fidelity and topological completeness, outperforming strong recent baselines.
