CGGT:
Curve-Grounded Geometry Transformer for 3D Parametric Curve Reconstruction

Editable 3D curves from sparse, unposed images. CGGT grounds consistent curve instances across views, predicts geometry, and reconstructs compact CAD-style primitives.

01 / OVERVIEW

From pixels to parametric structure

Existing curve reconstruction pipelines often need dense calibrated views, precomputed edge maps, or costly per-scene fitting. CGGT predicts camera parameters, depth, and cross-view curve instances in a single forward pass. A fast fitting stage then lifts these observations into editable 3D primitives.

02 / METHOD

Two stages, one coherent wireframe

Geometry-aware multi-view features and curve-aware decoding separate persistent structural curves from appearance edges. Camera and depth predictions support 3D lifting and parametric refinement.

03 / DATASET

Wireframe-100K

A synthetic dataset built from 100,000 CAD models with diverse topologies, multi-view renderings, and parametric curve annotations. The released data-preparation scripts document the ABC rendering and curve metadata pipeline; the dataset files themselves are not hosted in the code repository.
