TetraSDF: Analytic Isosurface Extraction with Multi-resolution Tetrahedral Grid

Neural implicit representations have emerged as a powerful paradigm for 3D reconstruction. However, high-fidelity indoor surface reconstruction remains a significant challenge, primarily due to the pronounced \emph{geometric heterogeneity} of indoor scenes. Large texture-less planar regions typically require stronger regularization to suppress high-frequency artifacts, while thin structures demand sharper, more adaptive representations to mitigate the spectral bias of multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs) and prevent over-smoothing. Existing approaches often rely on spatially indiscriminate prior supervision and a scene-global SDF-to-density transformation, which constrains their ability to balance planar smoothness and detail preservation. In this paper, we propose CASA-SDF (Curriculum-Aware Spatial Adaptation for SDF), a unified framework that addresses this challenge via complementary adaptations of supervision and representation capacity. Specifically, Hybrid Spatially-Adaptive Uncertainty Annealing (SAUA) fuses semantic and photometric uncertainties to construct a pixel-wise curriculum for monocular prior supervision. This strategy maintains regularization in reliable regions while attenuating unreliable supervision early in training to enable data-driven photometric refinement. Meanwhile, Curvature-Aware Locally Adaptive Density Transformation (CALADT) progressively modulates the sharpness of the SDF-to-density mapping via a curvature proxy to enhance the representation of thin structures. Extensive experiments on benchmark indoor datasets demonstrate that CASA-SDF improves surface completeness and detail recovery on high-frequency structures, without compromising the stability of planar surfaces.

Reconstructing signed distance functions (SDFs) from point cloud data benefits many robot autonomy capabilities, including localization, mapping, motion planning, and control. Methods that support online and large-scale SDF reconstruction often rely on discrete volumetric data structures, which affects the continuity and differentiability of the SDF estimates. Neural network methods have demonstrated high-fidelity differentiable SDF reconstruction but they tend to be less efficient, experience catastrophic forgetting and memory limitations in large environments, and are often restricted to truncated SDF. This work proposes OREN, a hybrid method that combines an explicit prior from octree interpolation with an implicit residual from neural network regression. Our method achieves non-truncated (Euclidean) SDF reconstruction with computational and memory efficiency comparable to volumetric methods and differentiability and accuracy comparable to neural network methods. Extensive experiments demonstrate that OREN outperforms the state of the art in terms of accuracy and efficiency, providing a scalable solution for downstream tasks in robotics and computer vision.

This study addresses the partial-to-complete geometry reconstruction of deformable objects (DOs) from point-cloud observations toward precise DO manipulation. Recent DO reconstruction approaches often adopt implicit neural representations (INRs) to model continuous surfaces as well as capture structural variability. However, these methods typically rely on object-specific shape priors that improve training stability and limit generalization. To figure it out, we introduce ParCo-SDF, a two-stage partial-to-complete signed distance field (SDF) reconstruction framework consisting of temporal geometry encoding followed by FiLM-conditioned SDF prediction. The temporal encoder captures structural similarity across DO sequence, enabling prior-free stable training. FiLM-based conditioning preserves reconstruction expressivity while reducing network complexity. We evaluate the proposed method against a state-of-the-art DO surface reconstruction baseline on a rubber band manipulation dataset, demonstrating robust and high-fidelity reconstruction under severe occlusions.
