they train a generative model for 3D shapes such that rendering the shapes generates images matching the distribution of a 2D data set. The generator model takes in a random input vector (values r ...

but only trying to describe the surface of an object. The empty space around it and inside it? Doesn’t matter. So first his system renders a 3D reconstruction of the 2D image in very low resolution.

This allowed them to precisely control how light is reflected, so that a 2D surface reflects light just as a 3D object would. Borrowing a technique from 3D computer graphics called Normal Mapping, ...

NVIDIA has built an artificial intelligence that can create a detailed 3D model of an object — all from just a single image of it. The system, dubbed the "differentiable interpolation-based ...

letting artists instantly transform 2D vector images into 3D models that can be rotated around the axis of the screen itself. "Project Turntable" is currently just a tightly controlled demo ...

Some experimental features are in the works for rotating vector images, producing sound ... designs and a feature for rotating 2D art as if it were a 3D object. “Project Turntable” is capable ...

A highlight was Project Turntable, an experimental tool that allows users to seamlessly rotate 2D vector ... image twists and turns, it takes on a 3D quality, almost appearing to be a physical object.

and image realism. Even when the visual features, such as colour and luminance were controlled for, they said the mice could still generalise from 2D picture to 3D object. “Results from a series ...
