Although various deep learning models have been proposed to address this complex task, they suffer from two limitations: 1) They employ voxel representation for bone shape and exploit 3D convolutional layers to capture anatomy prior, which are memory-intensive and limit the reconstruction resolution. 2) They overlook the prevalent occlusion effect within X-ray images and directly extract features using a simple loss, which struggles to fully exploit complex X-ray information. To tackle these concerns, we present Spatial-division Augmented Occupancy Field~(SdAOF). SdAOF adopts the continuous occupancy field for shape representation, reformulating the reconstruction problem as a per-point occupancy value prediction task. Its implicit and continuous nature enables memory-efficient training and fine-scale surface reconstruction at different resolutions during the inference. Moreover, we propose a novel spatial-division augmented distillation strategy to provide feature-level guidance for capturing the occlusion relationship. Extensive experiments on the pelvis reconstruction dataset show that SdAOF outperforms state-of-the-art methods and reconstructs fine-scale bone surfaces.The code is available at https://github.com/xmed-lab/SdAOF","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.15433v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2407.15433v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"spatial-division-augmented-occupancy-field","repo_url":"https://github.com/xmed-lab/sdaof","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"anatomy","task_name":"Anatomy"},{"task_slug":"surface-reconstruction","task_name":"Surface Reconstruction"},{"task_slug":"value-prediction","task_name":"Value prediction"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
