About this paper

Jiayi Liu, Manolis Savva, Ali Mahdavi-Amiri

This State of The Art Report provides a comprehensive review of advancements in 3D modeling of human-made articulated objects, distinctly analyzing geometry and articulation modeling while outlining current challenges and future research directions for computer vision, graphics, and robotics.

Key insights

  • The field has significantly transitioned towards data-driven learning-based approaches, increasingly leveraging self-supervised and generative models, often with transfer learning from foundation models.
  • Implicit neural representations, such as Neural SDFs and NeRFs, are becoming central intermediate representations for articulated object creation due to their continuous and differentiable nature.
  • While progress is evident, critical challenges persist in achieving generalization across diverse objects, ensuring robustness in real-world conditions, and incorporating physical plausibility into models.
