HybridSDF: Combining Free Form Shapes and Geometric Primitives for effective Shape Manipulation

Year: 2021
Type: preprint
Abstract: CAD modeling typically involves the use of simple geometric primitives whereas recent advances in deep-learning based 3D surface modeling have opened new shape design avenues. Unfortunately, these advances have not yet been accepted by the CAD community because they cannot be integrated into engineering workflows. To remedy this, we propose a novel approach to effectively combining geometric primitives and free-form surfaces represented by implicit surfaces for accurate modeling that preserves interpretability, enforces consistency, and enables easy manipulation.
