# Model Card for Make-A-Shape Multi-View to 3D Model

This model is part of the Make-A-Shape paper, capable of generating high-quality 3D shapes from multi-view images with intricate geometric details, realistic structures, and complex topologies.

## Model Details

### Model Description

Make-A-Shape is a novel 3D generative framework trained on an extensive dataset of over 10 million publicly-available 3D shapes. The multi-view to 3D model is one of the conditional generation models in this framework. It can efficiently generate a wide range of high-quality 3D shapes from four view-specific images as inputs. The model uses a wavelet-tree representation and adaptive training strategy to achieve superior performance in terms of geometric detail and structural plausibility.

## Uses 

### Direct Use 

This model is released by Autodesk and intended for academic and research purposes only for the theoretical exploration and demonstration of the Make-a-Shape 3D generative framework.  Please see [here](https://github.com/AutodeskAILab/Make-a-Shape?tab=readme-ov-file#multi-view-to-3d) for inferencing instructions. 

### Out-of-Scope Use 

The model should not be used for:

- Commercial purposes 

- Creation of load-bearing physical objects the failure of which could cause property damage or personal injury 

- Any usage not in compliance with the [license](https://huggingface.co/ADSKAILab/Make-A-Shape-multi-view-20m/blob/main/LICENSE.md), in particular, the "Acceptable Use" section. 

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations 

### Bias 

- The model may inherit biases present in the publicly-available training datasets, which could lead to uneven representation of certain object types or styles. 

- The model's performance may degrade for object categories or styles that are underrepresented in the training data. 

### Risks and Limitations 

- The quality of the generated 3D output may be impacted by the quality and clarity of the input image. 

- The model may occasionally generate implausible shapes, especially when the input image is ambiguous or of low quality.  Even theoretically plausible shapes should not be relied upon for real-world structural soundness.  

## How to Get Started with the Model 

Please refer to the instructions [here](https://github.com/AutodeskAILab/Make-a-Shape?tab=readme-ov-file#multi-view-to-3d).

## Training Details 

### Training Data 

The model was trained on a dataset of over 10 million 3D shapes aggregated from 18 different publicly-available sub-datasets, including ModelNet, ShapeNet, SMPL, Thingi10K, SMAL, COMA, House3D, ABC, Fusion 360, 3D-FUTURE, BuildingNet, DeformingThings4D, FG3D, Toys4K, ABO, Infinigen, Objaverse, and two subsets of ObjaverseXL (Thingiverse and GitHub).

### Training Procedure

#### Preprocessing 

Each 3D shape in the dataset was converted into a truncated signed distance function (TSDF) with a resolution of 256³. The TSDF was then decomposed using a discrete wavelet transform to create the wavelet-tree representation used by the model.

#### Training Hyperparameters

- **Training regime:** Please refer to the paper.

#### Speeds, Sizes, Times 

- The model was trained on 48 × A10G GPUs for about 20 days, amounting to around 23,000 GPU hours.
- The model can generate shapes within two seconds for most conditions.

## Evaluation

### Testing Data, Factors & Metrics

#### Testing Data

The model was evaluated on a test set consisting of 2% of the shapes from each sub-dataset in the training data, as well as on the entire Google Scanned Objects (GSO) dataset, which was not part of the training data.

#### Factors

The evaluation considered various factors such as the quality of generated shapes, the ability to capture fine details and complex structures, and the model's performance across different object categories.

#### Metrics

The model was evaluated using the following metrics:
- Intersection over Union (IoU)
- Light Field Distance (LFD)
- Chamfer Distance (CD)

### Results

The multi-view to 3D model achieved the following results on the "Our Val" dataset:
- LFD: 2217.25
- IoU: 0.6707
- CD: 0.00350

On the GSO dataset:
- LFD: 1890.85
- IoU: 0.7460
- CD: 0.00337


## Technical Specifications 

### Model Architecture and Objective 

The model uses a U-ViT architecture with learnable skip-connections between the convolution and deconvolution blocks. It employs a wavelet-tree representation and a subband adaptive training strategy to effectively capture both coarse and fine details of 3D shapes. 

### Compute Infrastructure

#### Hardware

The model was trained on 48 × A10G GPUs.
