Abstract
Systems and methods for shape completion are provided. In one embodiment, a computer implemented method includes receiving sensor data for a visualized area of an object as at least one point cloud representation. The computer implemented method also includes transforming the at least one point cloud representation into an input voxel grid of the visualized area of the object. The input voxel grid is a volumetric representation. The computer implemented method further includes encoding the input voxel grid into a partial latent vector that lies on a partial latent space. The computer implemented method yet further includes determining a mapping between the partial latent space and a complete latent space based on the sensor data. The computer implemented method includes predicting a complete latent vector based on the complete latent space. The computer implemented method also includes estimating a complete shape of an object based on the complete latent space.
