Abstract

The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method comprising inputting a representation of a 3D modeled object to an abstraction neural network which outputs a first set of a first number of first primitives fitting the 3D modeled object; and determining, from the first set, one or more second sets each of a respective second number of respective second primitives. The second number is lower than the first number. The determining includes initializing a third set of third primitives as the first set and performing one or more iterations, each comprising to merging one or more subsets of third primitives together each into one respective single fourth primitive, to thereby obtain a fourth set of fourth primitives. Each iteration further comprises setting the third set of a next iteration as the fourth set of a current iteration and setting the one or more second sets as one or more obtained fourth sets.
