Articulating then Matching: Zero-Shot Shape Matching for Uncurated Data

Finding dense correspondences between 3D shapes is a fundamental yet unresolved challenge, especially in real-world environments. These environments present severe challenges, including the lack of time and sufficient samples for training, the prevalence of uncurated extreme-high resolution data with topological distortions, and the need to handle diverse 3D representations. In this paper, we present ATM, a zero-shot framework that requires no correspondence-specific training and robustly addresses these issues at once through an articulate-then-match paradigm. Rather than relying on intrinsic
