Explain 3D geometry data
Overview
This question evaluates proficiency with 3D geometry data representations, preprocessing and augmentation, modeling choices (architectures, losses, metrics), and efficient storage and serving for ML pipelines, categorizing the competency within Machine Learning and emphasizing both modality-specific engineering and data-management skills; the level of abstraction spans conceptual understanding of trade-offs and practical application for implementation and deployment. Such questions are commonly asked to probe a candidate's ability to reason about representation trade-offs, pipeline and model design decisions, and operational constraints that impact model performance and production readiness.
3D Geometry Data: Representations, Preprocessing, Modeling, and Serving
Prompt
You are working with 3D geometry data in ML pipelines for tasks such as classification, segmentation, detection, reconstruction, and simulation support. Explain:
- Common 3D data representations (e.g., point clouds, meshes, voxels) and when to use each.
- Typical preprocessing and augmentation steps for 3D data, including pitfalls.
- How to model such data: architecture choices, losses, and metrics.
- How to store, load, and serve 3D data efficiently for training and inference in production.
Make any minimal assumptions needed and be explicit about them.
