Implicit neural networks have been successfully used for surface reconstruction from point clouds. However, many of them face scalability issues as they encode the isosurface function of a whole object or scene into a single latent vector. To overcome this limitation, a few approaches infer latent vectors on a coarse regular 3D grid or on 3D patches, and interpolate them to answer occupancy queries. In doing so, they loose the direct connection with the input points sampled on the surface of objects, and they attach information uniformly in space rather than where it matters the most, i.e., near the surface. Besides, relying on fixed patch sizes may require discretization tuning. To address these issues, we propose to use point cloud convolutions and compute latent vectors at each input point. We then perform a learning-based interpolation on nearest neighbors using inferred weights. Experiments on both object and scene datasets show that our approach significantly outperforms other methods on most classical metrics, producing finer details and better reconstructing thinner volumes.

The code was used with Ubuntu, Python 3.7.10, Cuda 11.1 and Pytorch 1.8.1
apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx libopenblas-dev
If you want to run the code in a conda environment, you can create one with Python 3.7.10 and CudaToolKit 11.1 using:
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate poco
pip install -r requirements.txt

ShapeNet (Occupancy Network pre-processing)
We use the ShapeNet dataset as pre-processed by Occupancy Networks. Please refer to original repository for downloading the data.
It should be placed in the folder data/ShapeNet.
SyntheticRooms (Occupancy Network pre-processing)
We use the SyntheticRooms dataset as created by Occupancy Networks. Please refer to original repository for downloading the data.
It should be placed in the folder data/synthetic_room_dataset.
They should be placed in the folders:
data/3d_shapes_abc, data/3d_shapes_abc_training, data/3d_shapes_famous, data/3d_shapes_real_world and data/3d_shapes_thingi10k.
Download the SceneNet dataset.
We use the code from https://github.com/hjwdzh/Manifold for watertight model creation. Please download and compile it.
To create the watertight models, create a destination directory data/SceneNet, copy-paste the python script datasets/scenenet_watertight.py into the directory and run it with python scenenet_watertight.py.
You will need to modify the raw_data_dir and the manifold_code_dir to match your data and code locations.
You can use the script datasets/scenenet_sample.py. You will also need to modify the paths.
For easy use of the code, we provide precomputed meshes, and point clouds SceneNet20, SceneNet100, SceneNet500 and SceneNet1000.
The watertight models should be in data/SceneNet.
The points are located in data/SceneNet20, data/SceneNet100, data/SceneNet1000 and data/SceneNet500.
