My seminar focuses on 3D reconstruction of thin and strand-like structures such as hair, fur, fibres, and occluders. I first discuss direction-aware kernel support for neural implicit reconstruction of fuzzy geometry, then present a controlled 3D Gaussian Splatting study where thin occluders partially hide a target object. The goal is to understand how directional structure affects both representation quality and reconstruction capacity under occlusion.
