Trapping, chaos and averaging in bubbling AdS spaces
We discuss chaos and ensemble averaging in 1/2 BPS bubbling AdS spaces of Lin, Lunin and Maldacena (LLM) by studying trapped and escaping null geodesics and estimating their decay rates.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Mesh Processing Non‐Meshes via Neural Displacement Fields
Abstract Mesh processing pipelines are mature, but adapting them to newer non‐mesh surface representations—which enable fast rendering with compact file size—requires costly meshing or transmitting bulky meshes, negating their core benefits for streaming applications.

LeafFit: Plant Assets Creation from 3D Gaussian Splatting
Abstract We propose LeafFit, a pipeline that converts 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) of individual plants into editable, instanced mesh assets. While 3DGS faithfully captures complex foliage, its high memory footprint and lack of mesh topology make it incompatible with traditional game production workflows. We address this by leveraging the repetition of

VQ‐Style: Disentangling Style and Content in Motion with Residual Quantized Representations
Abstract Human motion data is inherently rich and complex, containing both semantic content and subtle stylistic features that are challenging to model. We propose a novel method for effective disentanglement of the style and content in human motion data to facilitate style transfer.

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...
