Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a 2D or 3D object, including training an autoencoder on a first set of training data to identify a first set of latent variables and generate a first set of output data; training an hourglass predictor on a second set of training data, where the hourglass predictor encoder converts a set of related but different training input data to a second set of latent variables, which decode into a second set of output data of the same type as the first set of output data; and using the hourglass predictor to predict a 2D or 3D object of the same type as the first set of output data based on a 2D or 3D object of the same type as the second set of input data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a corresponding 3D mesh representing a 3D object includes transforming an initial three-dimensional mesh into a planar mesh, wherein each vertex or edge of the planar mesh is a transformation of a vertex or edge from the initial three-dimensional mesh; and sampling the planar mesh to generate a plurality of samples such that each sample comprises a three-dimensional coordinate representing a point in a three-dimensional space derived and/or taken directly from the initial three-dimensional mesh, and a coordinate representing a position of the sample relative to other samples; and generating the sampled matrix based on the plurality of samples; and representing the sampled matrix as a corresponding 3D mesh.
