Mesh Total Generalized Variation for Denoising [paper]

Status Update: [2021/06/08] This paper has been accepted by the IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG).

by Zheng Liu, Yanlei Li, Weina Wang, Ligang Liu, and Renjie Chen(Corresponding author)

💡 Introduction

MeshTGV is an efficient numerical framework to discretize TGV over triangular meshes. Based on this discretization, a vectorial TGV regularization model is proposed to restore the face normal field. Then, we introduce an efficient and effective algorithm to solve the optimization problem.

🔧 Usage

clone this repository, you will get :

MeshTGV
 │
 │── data                  [//comparison data used in our paper]
 │     │—— CAD
 │     │── Kinect
 │     │── NonCAD
 │
 │—— MeshTGV-1.2.0.exe     [//executable file to run our algorithm]
 │—— README.md

run the program :

  1. double click the executable file.

  2. load a mesh file (.obj) :

    MenuModelLoad MeshChoose your noisy mesh

  3. open the MeshTGV algorithm panel :

    MenuDenoisingMeshTGV

  4. set parameters then click the Run button.

  5. get output :

    • Visualization output : showed in the mainwindow.
    • Norm result output : automaticlly saved in the same folder with the input Noisy Mesh.
    • Mesh result output : You need to save the Mesh result manually : MenuModelSave

parameters setting :

Please see Section 6.1 Parameters Setting in our paper for more details of parameters.

🗿 About data

There are four files in each model's folder. For example, in Block's folder :

 data                  [//comparison data used in our paper]
   │—— CAD
   │    │—— Block
   │    │    │—— groundtruth.obj
   │    │    │—— noisy.obj
   │    │    │—— tgv_filtered_normals-aad=xxx.txt
   │    │    │—— tgv_result_mesh.obj
   │    │—— ...
   │
   │── Kinect
   │── NonCAD
  • groundtruth.obj : The GroundTruth data of model.

  • noisy.obj : The Noise data of model.

  • tgv_filtered_normals-aad=xxx.txt : The result normals saved after MeshTGV Normal Filtering but before Vertex Updating. "aad=xxx" in the filename means the Average Angle Deviation(θ) of the result normals is "xxx".

  • tgv_result_mesh.obj : The result mesh saved after MeshTGV Normal Filtering and Vertex Updating.
