POCO: Point Convolution for Surface Reconstruction
by: Alexandre Boulch and Renaud Marlet
Abstract
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.

Dependencies
Our code rely on Pytorch Geometric, which should be installed. Then, run:
python setup.py build_ext --inplace
Data
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.
ABC / RealWorld / Famous and Thingi10k
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.
SceneNet
Download the SceneNet dataset.
Watertight models
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.
Creation of the point clouds
You can use the script datasets/scenenet_sample.py. You will also need to modify the paths.
Precomputed meshes and point clouds
For easy use of the code, we provide precomputed meshes, and point clouds SceneNet20, SceneNet100, SceneNet500 and SceneNet1000.
Location
The watertight models should be in data/SceneNet.
The points are located in data/SceneNet20, data/SceneNet100, data/SceneNet1000 and data/SceneNet500.
Training
# train on ShapeNet with 3k points, noise and without normals
python train.py --config configs/config_shapenet.yaml
# train on ShapeNet with 10k points, no noise and normals
python train.py --config configs/config_shapenet.yaml --normals True --random_noise 0 --experiment_name Normals
# train on ABC with 3k points
python train.py --config configs/config_abc.yaml --experiment_name 3k

For faster generation, one would want to use a lower marching cubes parameter --gen_resolution_global, e.g. 128.
DATASET_NAME should be replaced by ABCTest, ABCTestNoiseFree, ABCTestExtraNoise, RealWorld, FamousTest, FamousTestNoiseFree, FamousTestExtraNoisy, FamousTestSparse, FamousTestDense, Thingi10kTest, Thingi10kTestNoiseFree, Thingi10kTestExtraNoisy, Thingi10kTestSparse, Thingi10kTestDense
DATASET_DIR should be replaced by 3d_shapes_abc, 3d_shapes_famous, 3d_shapes_real_world, 3d_shapes_thingi10k
SceneNet
python generate.py --config results/ShapeNet_Normals_FKAConv_InterpAttentionKHeadsNet_None/config.yaml --gen_autoscale True --gen_autoscale_target 0.01 --gen_resolution_metric 0.01 --dataset_name DATASET_NAME --dataset_root data/DATASET_NAME --manifold_points -1
DATASET_NAME should be replaced by SceneNet20, SceneNet100, SceneNet500, SceneNet1000.
The --gen_autoscale_target parameter is the average distance between a point and its nearest neighbor in the training set, 0.01 for ShapeNet train set with 3000 points.
