The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $599,468 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant, titled "HCC:SMALL: NEURAL SHAPE GENERATORS UNDER GEOMETRIC, PHYSICAL, AND TOPOLOGICAL PRIORS -SHAPE SYNTHESIS?CREATING FORMAL DESCRIPTIONS OF NOVEL 3-D SHAPES," will fund research to develop a computational framework that incorporates physical, topological, and geometrical preferences when learning shape synthesis. The project aims to establish shape synthesis as a scientific sub-community that departs from simple applications of 2D image-generation techniques, with the goal of producing 3D shapes that are geometrically feasible, physically stable, and topologically correct. The award period runs from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2027.
