Generating suggested edits for three-dimensional graphics based on deformations of prior edits

Abstract

Using a prediction engine, generating, based on deformations of prior editing operations performed with a graphics editing tool, suggested editing operations that augment current editing operations applied to a graphical object. The prediction engine accesses first samples defining first positions along first paths of previous editing operations applied to a mesh object in a previous frame and second samples defining second positions along second paths of executed editing operations applied in a current frame. The prediction engine identifies, from a comparison of the first samples and the second samples, a matching component set from the previous editing operations that corresponds to the executed editing operations. The prediction engine deforms the first samples toward the second samples and determines suggested editing operations that comprise a non-matching component set as modified based on the deformed first samples. The prediction engine updates an interface to provide the suggested editing operations.
