FastSESR: Fast Scene-level Explicit Surface Reconstruction

Explicit surface reconstruction aims to recover high-fidelity meshes directly from point clouds. While existing methods achieve strong performance on scene-level data, they often rely on test-time optimization, resulting in a prohibitive runtime of several minutes. To address this bottleneck, we propose FastSESR, a two-stage framework for efficient scene-level explicit surface reconstruction. In the first stage, a lightweight triangular candidate network (TCN) captures local connections via an edge-factorized parameterization, enabling effective extraction of surface triangles from uniformly sampled points. In the second stage, an offset optimization network amortizes offset refinement into a small, fixed number of learnable update steps guided by TCN, producing geometries that are more suitable for triangulation. Experiments on multiple scene-level datasets show that FastSESR accelerates surface reconstruction by at least $20 \times$ over prior methods while maintaining competitive reconstruction quality. Moreover, evaluations on shape-level benchmarks indicate good generalization performance. Our code is available at https://github.com/Vaiduryasses/FastSESR.
