Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract We present an automated technique for computing a map between two genus‐zero shapes, which matches semantically corresponding regions to one another. Lack of annotated data prohibits direct inference of 3D semantic priors; instead, current state‐of‐the‐art methods predominantly optimize geometric properties or require varying amounts of manual annotation. To overcome the lack of annotated training data, we distill semantic matches from pre‐trained vision models: our method renders the pair of untextured 3D shapes from multiple viewpoints; the resulting renders are then fed into an off‐the‐shelf image‐matching strategy that leverages a pre‐trained visual model to produce feature points. This yields semantic correspondences, which are projected back to the 3D shapes, producing a raw matching that is inaccurate and inconsistent across different viewpoints. These correspondences are refined and distilled into an inter‐surface map by a dedicated optimization scheme, which promotes bijectivity and continuity of the output map. We illustrate that our approach can generate semantic surface‐to‐surface maps, eliminating manual annotations or any 3D training data requirement. Furthermore, it proves effective in scenarios with high semantic complexity, where objects are non‐isometrically related, as well as in situations where they are nearly isometric.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
