API

kaolin.metrics.trianglemesh.average_edge_length(vertices, faces)

Returns the average length of each faces in a mesh.

Parameters
  • vertices (torch.Tensor) – Batched vertices, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_vertices}, 3)\).

  • faces (torch.LongTensor) – Faces, of shape \((\text{num_faces}, 3)\).

Returns

average length of each edges in a face, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_faces})\).

Return type

(torch.Tensor)

Example

>>> vertices = torch.tensor([[[1, 0, 0],
...                           [0, 1, 0],
...                           [0, 0, 1]]], dtype=torch.float)
>>> faces = torch.tensor([[0, 1, 2]])
>>> average_edge_length(vertices, faces)
tensor([[1.4142]])
kaolin.metrics.trianglemesh.point_to_mesh_distance(pointclouds, face_vertices)

Computes the distances from pointclouds to meshes (represented by vertices and faces).

For each point in the pointcloud, it finds the nearest triangle in the mesh, and calculated its distance to that triangle.

Note

The calculated distance is the squared euclidean distance.

Type 0 indicates the distance is from a point on the surface of the triangle.

Type 1 to 3 indicates the distance is from a point to a vertices.

Type 4 to 6 indicates the distance is from a point to an edge.

Parameters
  • pointclouds (torch.Tensor) – pointclouds, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_points}, 3)\).

  • face_vertices (torch.Tensor) – vertices of each face of meshes, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_faces}, 3, 3)\).

Returns

  • Distances between pointclouds and meshes, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_points})\).

  • face indices selected, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_points})\).

  • Types of distance of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_points})\).

Return type

(torch.Tensor, torch.LongTensor, torch.IntTensor)

Example

>>> from kaolin.ops.mesh import index_vertices_by_faces
>>> point = torch.tensor([[[0.5, 0.5, 0.5],
...                        [3., 4., 5.]]], device='cuda')
>>> vertices = torch.tensor([[[0., 0., 0.],
...                           [0., 1., 0.],
...                           [0., 0., 1.]]], device='cuda')
>>> faces = torch.tensor([[0, 1, 2]], dtype=torch.long, device='cuda')
>>> face_vertices = index_vertices_by_faces(vertices, faces)
>>> distance, index, dist_type = point_to_mesh_distance(point, face_vertices)
>>> distance
tensor([[ 0.2500, 41.0000]], device='cuda:0')
>>> index
tensor([[0, 0]], device='cuda:0')
>>> dist_type
tensor([[5, 5]], device='cuda:0', dtype=torch.int32)
kaolin.metrics.trianglemesh.uniform_laplacian_smoothing(vertices, faces)

Calculates the uniform laplacian smoothing of meshes. The position of updated vertices is defined as \(V_i = \frac{1}{N} * \sum^{N}_{j=1}V_j\), where \(N\) is the number of neighbours of \(V_i\), \(V_j\) is the position of the j-th adjacent vertex.

Parameters
  • vertices (torch.Tensor) – Vertices of the meshes, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_vertices}, 3)\).

  • faces (torch.LongTensor) – Faces of the meshes, of shape \((\text{num_faces}, \text{face_size})\).

Returns

smoothed vertices, of shape \((\text{batch_size}, \text{num_vertices}, 3)\).

Return type

(torch.FloatTensor)

Example

>>> vertices = torch.tensor([[[1, 0, 0],
...                           [0, 1, 0],
...                           [0, 0, 1]]], dtype=torch.float)
>>> faces = torch.tensor([[0, 1, 2]])
>>> uniform_laplacian_smoothing(vertices, faces)
tensor([[[0.0000, 0.5000, 0.5000],
         [0.5000, 0.0000, 0.5000],
         [0.5000, 0.5000, 0.0000]]])
