Establishing point-to-point correspondences across multiple 3D shapes is a fundamental problem in computer vision and graphics. In this paper, we introduce DcMatch, a novel unsupervised learning framework for non-rigid multishape matching. Unlike existing methods that learn a canonical embedding from a single shape, our approach leverages a shape graph attention network to capture the underlying manifold structure of the entire shape collection. This enables the construction of a more expressive and robust shared latent space, leading to more consistent shape-touniverse correspondences via a universe predictor. Simultaneously, we represent these correspondences in both the spatial and spectral domains and enforce their alignment in the shared universe space through a novel cycle consistency loss. This dual-level consistency fosters more accurate and coherent mappings. Extensive experiments on several challenging benchmarks demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms previous state-of-the-art approaches across diverse multi-shape matching scenarios.

Multi-shape matching is a central problem in various applications of computer vision and graphics, where cycle consistency constraints play a pivotal role. For this issue, we propose a novel and efficient approach that models multi-shapes as directed graphs for two-stage optimization, i.e., optimizing pairwise correspondence accuracy using landmarks, and refining matching consistency through cycle consistency basis. Specifically, we utilize local mapping distortion to identify landmarks and extract the dimension of the functional space, which is then used to upsample in the spectral domain, thereby producing smoother results. Next, to optimize the consistency of correspondences, we introduce the cycle consistency basis, which succinctly describes all consistent cycles in the collection. We then propose cycle consistency refinement, which resolves inconsistencies in cycles efficiently via the alternating direction method of multipliers. Our approach simultaneously balances the accuracy and consistency of multi-shape matching, achieving lower correspondence errors. Extensive experiments on several public datasets demonstrate the superiority of our approach over current state-of-the-art methods.
