由模型翻译 · 术语统一 · 请对照原文核对关键结论由于 B-rep 中面和边的异质性,传统的基于图的表示无法为面和边建立统一的公式化表示,从而限制了 B-rep 生成模型的能力。我们提出了 B-rep 变分图自编码(BrepVGAE),这是首个能够整体编码和解码 B-rep 模型边界表示的变分图自编码器框架。首先,我们新颖地将几何面和边都表示为图中的节点。然后,我们设计了一个稀疏图自编码器,将完整的 B-rep 结构聚合为一个紧凑的全局潜变量向量。接着,我们构建了一个采用基于集合的生成的解码器,该解码器使用双线性层以单个潜变量向量重建邻接关系,即拓扑结构。之后,同一个解码器通过可学习的查询向量和交叉注意力机制为所有面和边生成节点特征。最后,两阶段训练策略确保了几何与拓扑在整个过程中的有效耦合。全面的实验表明,BrepVGAE 在重建精度、拓扑有效性和生成多样性方面显著优于现有方法。这验证了从统一潜变量表示中解码完整 CAD 几何-拓扑分布的可行性和有效性,同时也为 CAD 部件检索和特征识别领域提供了新的见解。

Due to the heterogeneity of faces and edges in B-rep, conventional graph-based representations is incapable of establishing a unified formulation for faces and edges, thereby constraining the capabilities of B-rep generative models. We propose a B-rep Variational Graph Auto Encoding (BrepVGAE), the first variational graph autoencoder framework capable of holistically encoding and decoding boundary representations of B-rep models.Firstly, we novelly represent both geometry faces and edges as nodes in a graph representation. We then design a sparse graph autoencoder to aggregate the complete B-rep structure into a compact global latent vector. We then construct a decoder that employs set-based generation, which uses bilinear layers to reconstruct adjacency relationships, i.e., topology, with a single latent vector. Afterwards, the same decoder generates node features for all faces and edges through learnable query vectors and cross-attention mechanisms. Finally, a two-stage training strategy ensures effective coupling of geometry and topology throughout. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that BrepVGAE significantly outperforms existing methods in reconstruction accuracy, topological validity, and generative diversity. This validates the feasibility and efficacy of decoding complete CAD geometric-topological distributions from a unified latent representation, while also offering novel insights for CAD part retrieval and feature recognition domains.
