WildHSR: Metric Feed-Forward 4D People-Scene Reconstruction from a 3D Foundation Model

WildHSR introduces a lightweight adaptation of 3D foundation models to jointly recover metric cameras, scene geometry, and persistent person identities from monocular video. By generating pseudo‑scale labels from curated web footage and fine‑tuning a Scale Readout, the method predicts metric scale directly from foundation‑model tokens. It also exploits intermediate query‑key features to associate per‑frame bodies, enabling feed‑forward reconstruction that outperforms state‑of‑the‑art optimization‑based methods on several benchmarks while running at 10.1 fps.

TokenMatch: 3D Mesh Correspondence Transformer with Curvature-Guided Tokenisation

TokenMatch is a transformer-based model that estimates 3D shape correspondences by adaptively tokenising meshes into curvature-guided patches. Trained only on the BeCoS partial-to-partial dataset, it generalises to full-shape matching without retraining, using self‑ and cross‑attention to learn patch‑ and point‑level relations. Evaluated on CP2P, PSMAL, BeCoS, FAUST, SCAPE, and SHREC'19, TokenMatch consistently outperforms existing methods in mean geodesic error and intersection‑over‑union while achieving sub‑second inference speeds.
