Pix2Repair: Implicit Shape Restoration from Images
We present Pix2Repair, an automated shape repair approach that generates
restoration shapes from images to repair fractured objects. Prior repair
approaches require a high-resolution watertight 3D mesh of the fractured object
as input. Input 3D meshes must be obtained using expensive 3D scanners, and
scanned meshes require manual cleanup, limiting accessibility and scalability.
Pix2Repair takes an image of the fractured object as input and automatically
generates a 3D printable restoration shape. We contribute a novel shape
function that deconstructs a latent code representing the fractured object into
a complete shape and a break surface. We show restorations for synthetic
fractures from the Geometric Breaks and Breaking Bad datasets, and cultural
heritage objects from the QP dataset, and for real fractures from the Fantastic
Breaks dataset. We overcome challenges in restoring axially symmetric objects
by predicting view-centered restorations. Our approach outperforms shape
completion approaches adapted for shape repair in terms of chamfer distance,
earth mover's distance, normal consistency, and percent restorations generated
DeepJoin: Learning a Joint Occupancy, Signed Distance, and Normal Field Function for Shape Repair
We introduce DeepJoin, an automated approach to generate high-resolution
repairs for fractured shapes using deep neural networks. Existing approaches to
perform automated shape repair operate exclusively on symmetric objects,
require a complete proxy shape, or predict restoration shapes using
low-resolution voxels which are too coarse for physical repair. We generate a
high-resolution restoration shape by inferring a corresponding complete shape
and a break surface from an input fractured shape. We present a novel implicit
shape representation for fractured shape repair that combines the occupancy
function, signed distance function, and normal field. We demonstrate repairs
using our approach for synthetically fractured objects from ShapeNet, 3D scans
from the Google Scanned Objects dataset, objects in the style of ancient Greek
pottery from the QP Cultural Heritage dataset, and real fractured objects. We
outperform three baseline approaches in terms of chamfer distance and normal
consistency. Unlike existing approaches and restorations using subtraction,
DeepJoin restorations do not exhibit surface artifacts and join closely to the
fractured region of the fractured shape. Our code is available at:

Fantastic Breaks: A Dataset of Paired 3D Scans of Real-World Broken Objects and Their Complete Counterparts
Automated shape repair approaches currently lack access to datasets that
describe real-world damaged geometry. We present Fantastic Breaks (and Where to
Find Them:
https://terascale-all-sensing-research-studio.github.io/FantasticBreaks), a
dataset containing scanned, waterproofed, and cleaned 3D meshes for 150 broken
objects, paired and geometrically aligned with complete counterparts. Fantastic
Breaks contains class and material labels, proxy repair parts that join to
broken meshes to generate complete meshes, and manually annotated fracture
boundaries. Through a detailed analysis of fracture geometry, we reveal
differences between Fantastic Breaks and synthetic fracture datasets generated
using geometric and physics-based methods. We show experimental shape repair
evaluation with Fantastic Breaks using multiple learning-based approaches
pre-trained with synthetic datasets and re-trained with subset of Fantastic
Breaks.Comment: To be published at CVPR 202
Contralateral Renal Cell Carcinoma Ureteric Metastases Can Arise on Tyrosine Kinase Adjuvant Therapy and Be Effectively Treated by Endoscopic Laser Excision and Ablation
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) uncommonly metastasizes to the ureter and rarely to the contralateral ureter. We describe the presentation of 2 successive contralateral ureteric metastases from RCC in our institution. The first represents the only reported metachronous ureteric deposit on adjuvant sorafenib after laparoscopic radical nephrectomy for RCC. The other presented with a synchronous lesion after radiological work-up. Both lesions were treated with endoscopic excision and laser ablation with preservation of the renal unit and no local recurrence. We report these cases and discuss the literature

The Planetary Science Journal, 3(1), (2022): 22, https://doi.org/10.3847/psj/ac4493.Europa is a premier target for advancing both planetary science and astrobiology, as well as for opening a new window into the burgeoning field of comparative oceanography. The potentially habitable subsurface ocean of Europa may harbor life, and the globally young and comparatively thin ice shell of Europa may contain biosignatures that are readily accessible to a surface lander. Europa's icy shell also offers the opportunity to study tectonics and geologic cycles across a range of mechanisms and compositions. Here we detail the goals and mission architecture of the Europa Lander mission concept, as developed from 2015 through 2020. The science was developed by the 2016 Europa Lander Science Definition Team (SDT), and the mission architecture was developed by the preproject engineering team, in close collaboration with the SDT. In 2017 and 2018, the mission concept passed its mission concept review and delta-mission concept review, respectively. Since that time, the preproject has been advancing the technologies, and developing the hardware and software, needed to retire risks associated with technology, science, cost, and schedule.K.P.H., C.B.P., E.M., and all authors affiliated with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory carried out this research at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under a contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (grant No. 80NM0018D0004).
