Generating high-quality meshes for arbitrary geometries remains a fundamental bottleneck in computational engineering, often demanding heuristic tuning and semi-manual workflows. In this paper, we introduce Dmsh, a first fully automated reinforcement learning pipeline that unifies geometric decomposition and quadrilateral mesh generation within a single learning-based framework. Dmsh decomposes the problem through three coordinated agents handling topology simplification, geometric regularization, and mesh generation. The meshing process is formulated as a Markov Decision Process and solved using a parametric Soft Actor-Critic architecture with decoupled critics, enabling efficient exploration of a hybrid discrete-continuous action space. A curriculum learning strategy ensures scalability from simple domains to highly complex geometries, suppressing seed variance. By design, the recursive decomposition enables parallel meshing of subregions, yielding globally conforming all-quadrilateral meshes without post hoc correction. Across a wide range of benchmarks, Dmsh consistently outperforms existing methods in automation, robustness, and mesh quality, establishing a new paradigm for learning-based mesh generation.
The generation of production-ready quad-dominant meshes is a cornerstone of modern 3D content creation. Generating anisotropic quad-dominant meshes from point clouds is challenging, as existing methods are typically limited to producing either pure triangular meshes or pure quadrilateral meshes with isotropic densities. In this paper, we present QuadLink, a unified framework consisting of three stages for quad-dominant mesh generation by linking points into structured faces. QuadLink formulates polygonal mesh generation as a hybrid centroid-conditioned vertex linking model: it first predicts a unified set of anchors (vertices and face centroids), then learns centroid-conditioned links that associate vertices with face centroids, and finally assembles polygonal faces with a quad-first strategy guided by robust geometric verification strategies. This link-based formulation enables efficient generation of sparse and anisotropic quad-dominant meshes with coherent edge flow and meanwhile supporting hybrid polygonal topology. To construct training data for this model, we further introduce a Tri-to-Quad Operator that converts artistic triangle meshes into quad-dominant training data via global merge selection. Extensive experiments show that QuadLink produces production-ready quad-dominant meshes from point clouds and achieves improved geometric fidelity and topological quality compared to prior baselines. Our method natively supports hybrid polygonal topology, generalizing to arbitrary n-gon meshes without architectural changes.
Reinforcement learning in large or sparse-reward environments suffers from slow temporal-difference reward propagation, as value information spreads only locally across the state space. We propose Mesh-RL, a spatial domain-decomposition framework inspired by the finite element method and domain decomposition theory, which partitions the environment into overlapping subgrids and enforces boundary-consistent temporal-difference updates. Such an approach enables localized learning while ensuring globally coherent value propagation. Unlike hierarchical or model-based approaches, Mesh-RL accelerates long-range credit assignment without modifying the reward function, Bellman operator, or introducing explicit planning mechanisms. We evaluate Mesh-RL on hazard-dense grid-world environments with varying geometries and mesh resolutions. Across Q-learning, SARSA, and Dyna-Q, Mesh-RL consistently improves convergence speed, cumulative reward, and learning stability. Higher mesh resolutions sustain exploration, prevent premature convergence, and substantially accelerate value propagation to distant states. While Dyna-Q already benefits from internal planning, it still achieves additional gains under structured decomposition. Overall, Mesh-RL introduces a principled spatial domain-decomposition mechanism for accelerating temporal-difference learning. Our framework bridges finite element method-inspired boundary-consistency techniques from scientific computing with reinforcement learning to improve sample efficiency in sparse-reward environments. We will release source code of the study.
3D shapes from scanning, reconstruction, or AI-generated content often lack simple quad mesh layouts -- critical for efficient editing and modeling. Existing quad-remeshing techniques typically produce complex layouts with irregular loops, leading to tedious manual cleanup and extensive algorithm tuning. We introduce SQuadGen, a diffusion-based generative framework that leverages Chart Distance Fields (CDF) to synthesize simple quad layouts on 3D shapes. Our approach addresses two key challenges: (1) the discrete nature of mesh connectivity, which hinders learning, and (2) the scarcity of large-scale datasets with simple quad meshes. To overcome the first, we propose CDF, a continuous surface-based representation enabling effective learning and synthesis of quad layouts. To address the second, we define loop-aware simplicity metrics and construct a large-scale dataset of high-quality quad layouts recovered from public 3D repositories through a robust quad-recovery pipeline. Extensive evaluations across diverse 3D inputs show that SQuadGen consistently outperforms existing methods, producing robust, artist-friendly simple quad layouts.
