We propose a remeshing-enhanced method for generatively deforming shapes with visual losses. It is intuitive that sufficiently drastic deformations of a mesh without changing its triangulation can easily compromise element quality, even if such large geometry changes may be semantically desired. Shape deformation methods could thus benefit from changing the triangulation; however, this is not done by most generative, text-based, visually-supervised mesh deformation methods. Remeshing is a discrete operation, proven to be especially challenging to couple with the notoriously noisy supervision signal provided by visual losses. We propose a vertex-based deformation optimization quantity capable of large deformations and robustness to such noise; we periodically remesh using an isotropic remesher that interpolates and carries forward the deformation optimization state. This enables continuous, geometry-informed progress in coarse-to-fine addition of resolution. The resulting shapes' triangulations fit their optimized geometry and have neat isotropic elements. Further, our method is localizable, able to grow new features on a base shape with expressive detail, leaving the rest unchanged. We showcase the effectiveness of our method on a variety of shapes and prompts, both local and global deformations, and demonstrate its superior visual quality and triangle efficiency.

Autoregressive models have emerged as an effective paradigm for point cloud generation. However, most existing approaches rely on heuristic tokenization strategies, such as spatial sorting or stochastic downsampling, which often disrupt intrinsic point cloud topology and weaken the structural coherence of the generated shapes. In this paper, we present PointRSP, an autoregressive framework that reformulates point cloud generation as a topology-preserving tessellation process via recursive spectral partitioning. Instead of constructing token sequences heuristically, we introduce a topology-aware partitioning autoencoder that decomposes an unstructured point cloud into a non-balanced binary tree through a hybrid recursive spectral partitioning strategy. This hierarchical representation provides a deterministic geometric blueprint that preserves topological relationships while capturing multiscale structural dependencies within a quantized latent space. To synthesize shapes in this space, we propose a dual-stream cascaded generator that jointly models structural evolution and feature synthesis. In addition, we design a geometry-calibrated positional encoding mechanism that anchors latent embeddings using multi-scale structural centers, which stabilizes cascaded generation during the early stages of structural formation. Extensive experiments show that PointRSP achieves state-of-the-art performance in generation quality and diversity, demonstrating strong generalization across complex 3D topologies.

Autoregressive Transformers dominate high-quality mesh generation by producing artist-worthy topologies, yet their inherent sequential decoding induces substantial computational overhead, falling orders of magnitude slower than parallel generative models. On the other hand, while continuous diffusion and flow-matching methods support efficient parallel synthesis across a variety of domains, they cannot be directly applied to meshes: mesh connectivity is inherently discrete and incompatible with standard continuous noise injection and denoising operations. To resolve this fundamental incompatibility, we introduce a compact topology embedder that projects discrete mesh vertex positions and normals into continuous per-vertex embeddings, where the original discrete adjacency information can be faithfully recovered via spacetime distance thresholding. After pretraining and freezing this embedder, any raw mesh can be fully converted into a continuous per-vertex state space unifying position, normal, and implicit topological attributes. Built upon this novel continuous mesh representation, we present PolyFlow, a Transformer-based flow-matching framework that achieves fully parallel vertex state denoising conditioned on extracted point-cloud features. During inference, our model completes generation rapidly via an ODE solver, and supports explicit, precise control over output mesh resolution by directly specifying the target vertex count. Extensive evaluations on the Toys4K benchmark demonstrate that PolyFlow surpasses state-of-the-art autoregressive baselines in both Chamfer Distance and Hausdorff Distance.
Motion generation for rigged shapes is vital for scalable 4D asset production. However, template-based methods are limited by specific topologies and fail to generalize across diverse morphologies. Conversely, per-case optimization is computationally expensive, susceptible to local optima, and highly sensitive to viewpoint-induced ambiguities. In this paper, we present MotionDreamer, a diffusion-based framework designed for category-agnostic skeletal animation generation from 2D video guidance. To overcome the scarcity of high-quality training data, we have curated a large-scale dynamic dataset comprising approximately 20,000 diverse 3D models, each featuring complete textures, skeletal rigging, and a wide array of comprehensive animation sequences. To bridge the kinematic gap between 2D visual motion cues and heterogeneous 3D skeletal structures, we propose a structural-semantic injection mechanism. Our model integrates texture and semantic attributes directly into skeletal joint representations. This allows it to map perceived visual dynamics to specific joint hierarchies and their functional roles. This enables MotionDreamer to synthesize high-fidelity animations that maintain anatomical consistency across a vast range of unseen categories, from existing biological species to fantastical beings. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms existing methods, setting a new state-of-the-art benchmark for robust and efficient 4D asset generation. The code will be made publicly available upon acceptance.
3D shapes from scanning, reconstruction, or AI-generated content often lack simple quad mesh layouts -- critical for efficient editing and modeling. Existing quad-remeshing techniques typically produce complex layouts with irregular loops, leading to tedious manual cleanup and extensive algorithm tuning. We introduce SQuadGen, a diffusion-based generative framework that leverages Chart Distance Fields (CDF) to synthesize simple quad layouts on 3D shapes. Our approach addresses two key challenges: (1) the discrete nature of mesh connectivity, which hinders learning, and (2) the scarcity of large-scale datasets with simple quad meshes. To overcome the first, we propose CDF, a continuous surface-based representation enabling effective learning and synthesis of quad layouts. To address the second, we define loop-aware simplicity metrics and construct a large-scale dataset of high-quality quad layouts recovered from public 3D repositories through a robust quad-recovery pipeline. Extensive evaluations across diverse 3D inputs show that SQuadGen consistently outperforms existing methods, producing robust, artist-friendly simple quad layouts.
