StyleFields: Multi-Scale AdaIN-Modulated Implicit SDFs for Coarse-to-Fine 3D Shape Reconstruction and Editing

We introduce StyleFields, a DeepSDF-based architecture for high-fidelity 3D reconstruction that enables controllable geometric style mixing: the coarse structure of one object can be combined with the fine-scale details of another.

Key points

  • The core idea is depth-aware modulation: instead of a single global code, we inject latents via multi-level Adaptive Instance Normalization at several decoder depths, and supervise matching auxiliary heads with a coarse-to-fine schedule while gradually growing network depth.
  • This aligns early layers with global shape and later layers with high-frequency detail, achieving content-style decoupling without part labels or adversarial training.
  • We further demonstrate a practical application in automotive aerodynamics: a learned surrogate drag predictor serves as a differentiable objective to optimize reconstructed cars, allowing targeted edits of global form or surface details by freezing the complementary latent stream.
  • StyleFields offers a simple, effective recipe for controllable implicit reconstruction and downstream performance-driven design.
