Topic Description: I’ve chosen to explore MeshGPT, a method that uses decoder-only transformers to generate compact, high-quality 3D triangle meshes. It treats meshes as sequences of triangles, which allows for autoregressive modeling with transformers. This approach solves common issues in mesh generation, like over-tessellation, and produces results that resemble artist-designed models. It’s an exciting mix of NLP techniques applied to 3D graphics.
