Carve3D: Improving Multi-view Reconstruction Consistency for Diffusion Models with RL Finetuning

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Desai Xie, Jiahao Li, Hao Tan, Xin Sun, Zhixin Shu | Summary: Recent advancements in the text-to-3D task leverage finetuned text-to-image diffusion models to generate multi-view images, followed by NeRF reconstruction. Yet, existing supervised finetuned (SFT) diffusion models still suffer from multi-view inconsistency and the resulting NeRF […]

Hyperuniformity on Mars: Pebbles scattered on sand

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Zheng Zhu, Bernard Hallet, András A. Sipos, Gábor Domokos, Quan-Xing Liu | Summary: In Gale Crater near Mars’ equator, dunes and ripples of sand stand out from the general orderless, rocky terrain. In addition, images from Curiosity, the Mars Science Laboratory rover, reveal more subtle orderly forms: […]

Repaint123: Fast and High-quality One Image to 3D Generation with Progressive Controllable 2D Repainting

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Junwu Zhang, Zhenyu Tang, Yatian Pang, Xinhua Cheng, Peng Jin | Summary: Recent one image to 3D generation methods commonly adopt Score Distillation Sampling (SDS). Despite the impressive results, there are multiple deficiencies including multi-view inconsistency, over-saturated and over-smoothed textures, as well as the slow generation speed. […]

Learning Subject-Aware Cropping by Outpainting Professional Photos

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: James Hong, Lu Yuan, Michaël Gharbi, Matthew Fisher, Kayvon Fatahalian | Summary: How to frame (or crop) a photo often depends on the image subject and its context; e.g., a human portrait. Recent works have defined the subject-aware image cropping task as a nuanced and practical version […]

Detecting Quantum Anomalies in Open Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Shenghan Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yunlong Zang, Yingfei Gu, Shenghan Jiang, , | Summary: Symmetries and quantum anomalies serve as powerful tools for constraining complicated quantum many-body systems, offering valuable insights into low-energy characteristics based on their ultraviolet structure. Nevertheless, their applicability has traditionally been confined to closed quantum systems, rendering them […]

Spool-nematic ordering of dsDNA and dsRNA under confinement

Kavli Affiliate: Rudolf Podgornik | First 5 Authors: James Farrell, Jure Dobnikar, Rudolf Podgornik, Tine Curk, | Summary: The ability of double-stranded DNA or RNA to locally melt and form kinks leads to strong non-linear elasticity effects that qualitatively affect their packing in confined spaces. Using analytical theory and numerical simulation we show that kink […]
