Researchers have introduced a new method called object functionalization to transform visually plausible but non-functional 3D models into ones that are physically operable. This approach treats functionalization as a graph completion problem, using a novel functional graph representation that encodes object parts and their relationships. A neural network, named GraFu, completes incomplete graphs to drive a geometry realization stage, adding necessary structural elements and also correcting errors in motion data. The team developed a new dataset, FurFun-233, specifically for furniture models to train and evaluate their method. AI
