Article Abstract

Diverging from conventional explicit geometric representations, neural implicit representations utilize continuous function approximators to encode 3D surfaces through parametric formulations including signed distance fields (SDF), unsigned distance fields (UDF), occupancy fields (OF), and neural radiance fields (NeRF). These approaches demonstrate superior multi-view reconstruction fidelity by inherently supporting non-manifold geometries and complex topological variations, establishing themselves as foundational tools in 3D reconstruction. Neural implicit representations can be applied to a diverse array of reconstruction tasks, including object-level reconstruction, scene-level reconstruction, open-surface reconstruction and dynamic reconstruction. The exponential advancement of neural implicit representations in 3D reconstruction necessitates systematic analysis of their evolving methodologies and applications. This survey presents a structured synthesis of cutting-edge research from 2020-2025, establishing a dual-axis taxonomy that categorizes techniques by geometric representation types and application scenarios. Through this survey, we aim to familiarize emerging researchers with the current landscape of neural implicit representation in surface reconstruction, assess innovative contributions and limitations in existing research, and encourage prospective research directions.

Camouflaged object detection (COD) aims to discover objects that are seamlessly embedded in the environment. Existing COD methods have made significant progress by typically representing features in a discrete way with arrays of pixels. However, limited by discrete representation, these methods need to align features of different scales during decoding, which causes some subtle discriminative clues to become blurred.

Purpose: Accelerating MR acquisition is essential for image guided therapeutic applications. Compressed sensing (CS) has been developed to minimize image artifacts in accelerated scans, but the required iterative reconstruction is computationally complex and difficult to generalize. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs)/Transformers-based deep learning (DL) methods emerged as a faster alternative but face challenges in modeling continuous k-space, a problem amplified with non-Cartesian sampling commonly used in accelerated acquisition.

Robust tracking control of uncertain autoloaders by implicit Lyapunov method and scleronomic Lagrangian mechanics-informed neural network.

The autoloader is a key subsystem in modern main battle tanks, mainly responsible for ammunition transfer, loading, and resupply. However, it often suffers from uncertainties induced by base oscillations, leading to potential instability. While various control strategies have been proposed, most rely on prior knowledge of such oscillations.

Global/local biases in the visual processing of structurally complex stimuli occur under certain conditions of the beholder. Previous experiments using hierarchical letters (large letters made of small ones) have reported a global precedence in young adults. Here, we aimed to define neurophysiological markers of a possible global/local bias during the implicit processing of new faces.

Background: The growing adoption of diagnostic and prognostic algorithms in health care has led to concerns about the perpetuation of algorithmic bias against disadvantaged groups of individuals. Deep learning methods to detect and mitigate bias have revolved around modifying models, optimization strategies, and threshold calibration with varying levels of success and tradeoffs. However, there have been limited substantive efforts to address bias at the level of the data used to generate algorithms in health care datasets.
