SurfaceRecipe: Information-Efficient Mesh Surface Representation for Lightweight 3-D Shape Classification - Supplementary Code and Visualization Materials

Oct 2026 · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

Supplementary code and materials for 'SurfaceRecipe: Information-Efficient Mesh Surface Representation for Lightweight 3-D Shape Classification' (submitted to Computers and Graphics). SurfaceRecipe is a lightweight, mesh-informed 3-D shape classifier organised around a continuous geometric evidence signal. It builds fixed-length surface primitives from area-weighted triangle samples (coordinates, normals, areas, radii, edge scales, and a compact patch code) and derives a continuous per-primitive saliency score that drives an evidence-aware sampler (SCSS) and conditions bounded residual modulation of neighbourhood messages (SCRM). The package contains the full training/evaluation scripts, the ablation and reproducibility harness for the 589,814-parameter matched backbone, and the SCSS saliency visualization outputs (SVG/PNG/PLY/CSV) referenced in the paper. The model uses 0.600M parameters and reaches 93.3% overall accuracy on ModelNet40 without pretraining, voting, or test-time augmentation. This is the anonymized version prepared for peer review. GPU computing resources were provided by the Huawei AI 100-Schools Program (Computing Power Support).

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
