Researchers have introduced LATO.2, a novel framework for generating 3D meshes that disentangles the representation of vertex geometry and surface connectivity. Unlike previous methods that jointly encoded these aspects, LATO.2 employs a factorized approach with separate variational auto-encoders (VAEs) for vertex flow and connectivity flow, both guided by a shared voxel scaffold. This factorization enables unique capabilities such as part-wise generation for higher resolution and topology-adaptive editing, outperforming current state-of-the-art methods in mesh quality. AI
