However, editing the shape encoded by a neural SDF remains an open c hallenge. A tempting approach is to leverage common geometric operators ( e.g., boolean operations) to edit neural SDFs, but such edits often lead t o incorrect non-SDF outputs (which we call Pseudo-SDFs), preventing them f rom being used for downstream tasks. In this paper, we characterize the sp ace of Pseudo-SDFs, which are eikonal yet not true distance functions, and derive the closest point loss, a novel regularizer that encourages the ou tput to be an exact SDF. We demonstrate the applicability of our regulariz ation to many operations in which traditional methods cause a Pseudo-SDF t o arise, such as CSG and swept volumes, and produce a true (neural) SDF f or the result of these operations.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access\n \nSession Chair: Fei Hou (Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Scienc es; University of Chinese Academy of Sciences) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_406&sess=sess159 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
