OccAnyScene: Towards Unified Indoor-Outdoor 3D Occupancy Prediction

OccAnyScene introduces a unified approach for 3D occupancy prediction across both indoor and outdoor scenes, addressing the challenge of handling diverse camera setups, spatial ranges, voxel specifications, and semantic taxonomies. The method builds on a pretrained depth model, using pixel-aligned frustum feature aggregation and frustum-parameterized Gaussian construction to generate scene-adaptive occupancy predictions. It achieves state-of-the-art performance, scoring 59.92% mIoU on Occ-ScanNet and 23.06% mIoU on SurroundOcc-nuScenes.

GaussianDS: Depth-supervised Semantic Gaussian Splatting for Scene Understanding

GaussianDS introduces a depth‑supervised framework for 3D Gaussian Splatting that jointly optimizes RGB appearance, depth, and compact semantics from scratch. By arranging multi‑view images into a pose‑aware pseudo‑video and propagating view‑consistent masks via SAM2, the method aligns semantic lifting with geometric cues, using depth supervision and edge‑aware refinement to curb semantic drift and boundary leakage. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on LERF and 3D‑OVS benchmarks while preserving high‑fidelity reconstruction and enabling downstream tasks such as 3D object removal.

Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction

The paper introduces Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction, a task that focuses on detecting unknown objects in 3D voxel space for autonomous driving. It proposes Realistic Anomaly Augmentation to create two new datasets, VAA-KITTI and VAA-KITTI-360, and presents the OccOoD framework, which uses Cross‑Space Semantic Refinement to improve OoD detection while maintaining semantic occupancy accuracy. Experiments show OccOoD achieves an AuROC of 65.50% and an AuPRCr of 31.83% within a 1.2 m radius, demonstrating strong generalization to real‑world urban scenes.

O3N: Omnidirectional Open-Vocabulary Occupancy Prediction for Embodied Intelligent Robotics

O3N is a novel framework that performs open‑vocabulary occupancy prediction from a single omnidirectional RGB image. It introduces a polar‑spiral voxel embedding (PsM) for continuous 360° spatial representation, an Occupancy Cost Aggregation (OCA) module that unifies geometric and semantic supervision, and a Natural Modality Alignment (NMA) pathway that aligns visual, voxel, and text features. Experiments show state‑of‑the‑art results on QuadOcc and Human360Occ benchmarks, with strong cross‑scene generalization and semantic scalability.

Foundation4D: Towards a unified perception and reconstruction model for autonomous vehicles

Foundation4D is a unified feed‑forward model that performs geometry estimation, 3D detection, semantic occupancy, and Gaussian reconstruction from multi‑camera driving video. It uses a shared backbone with factorized spatiotemporal attention to merge observations across cameras and time, and a video inference pipeline that refines camera trajectories via pose graph optimization and assembles object tracks. The authors also provide a data annotation pipeline and release the PAI‑Foundation4D benchmark, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on depth, detection, and occupancy metrics and demonstrating that co‑training detection with geometry and occupancy improves performance.

PanoBench: A Panoptic Occupancy Prediction Benchmark for Autonomous Driving

PanoBench is a new camera‑centric benchmark for panoptic occupancy prediction that unifies 3D geometry, semantics, and instance identities across synthetic and real‑world driving scenes. It combines three datasets—PanoBench‑CarlaOcc, PanoBench‑nuScenes, and PanoBench‑KITTI360—through canonical interfaces and unified evaluation protocols, providing multi‑resolution annotations with persistent instance identities. The benchmark introduces a novel reconstruction pipeline for real‑world data, a unified valid‑mask protocol, and analyses of observation fidelity, geometric completeness, spatial continuity, and temporal consistency, while also benchmarking methods on semantic, panoptic, and 4D occupancy forecasting. whyItMatters":"PanoBench addresses the scarcity of instance‑aware annotations in panoptic occupancy research by offering comprehensive, high‑quality annotations and evaluation protocols that enable more robust development and comparison of autonomous driving perception methods."
