UniRestore3D: A Scalable Framework For General Shape Restoration

Shape restoration aims to recover intact 3D shapes from defective ones, such as those that are incomplete, noisy, and low-resolution. Previous works have achieved impressive results in shape restoration subtasks thanks to advanced generative models. While effective for specific shape defects, they are less applicable in real-world scenarios involving multiple defect types simultaneously. Additionally, training on limited subsets of defective shapes hinders knowledge transfer across restoration types and thus affects generalization. In this paper, we address the task of general shape restoration, which restores shapes with various types of defects through a unified model, thereby naturally improving the applicability and scalability. Our approach first standardizes the data representation across different restoration subtasks using high-resolution TSDF grids and constructs a large-scale dataset with diverse types of shape defects. Next, we design an efficient hierarchical shape generation model and a noise-robust defective shape encoder that enables effective impaired shape understanding and intact shape generation. Moreover, we propose a scalable training strategy for efficient model training. The capabilities of our proposed method are demonstrated across multiple shape restoration subtasks and validated on various datasets, including Objaverse, ShapeNet, GSO, and ABO.
