Fast and reliable physically-based simulation techniques are essential for providing flexible visual effects for computer graphics content. In this paper, we propose a fast and reliable hierarchical cloth simulation method, which combines conventional physically-based simulation with deep neural networks (DNN). Simulations of the coarsest level of the hierarchical model are calculated using conventional physically-based simulations, and more detailed levels are generated by inference using DNN models. We demonstrate that our method generates reliable and fast cloth simulation results through experiments under various conditions.
Cloth simulation requires a fast and stable method for interactively and realistically visualizing fabric materials using computer graphics. We propose an efficient cloth simulation method using miniature cloth simulation and upscaling Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The upscaling DNNs generate the target cloth simulation from the results of physically-based simulations of a miniature cloth that has similar physical properties to those of the target cloth. We have verified the utility of the proposed method through experiments, and the results demonstrate that it is possible to generate fast and stable cloth simulations under various conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
