3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has achieved remarkable success in real-time novel view synthesis, yet it suffers from severe overfitting under sparse-view settings due to insufficient geometric constraints. While recent methods introduce monocular depth priors to mitigate this, they inherently struggle with scale ambiguity and cross-view inconsistency, leading to defective geometry.
ZipMVS is a multi‑view stereo (MVS) approach that focuses on reducing memory usage while maintaining high‑quality 3D reconstructions. It introduces a new depth‑hypothesis strategy that compresses the cost volume, significantly lowering GPU memory consumption. Experiments on the DTU and Tanks and Temples datasets demonstrate that ZipMVS delivers competitive reconstruction quality compared to other efficiency‑oriented MVS methods.

Stereo matching is a fundamental task in 3D reconstruction. Despite remarkable advances, the prevailing paradigms formulate stereo matching as a deterministic regression problem, collapsing the multimodal distribution modeling into a single-point estimation.

The paper introduces GeoNeXt, a framework that repurposes pretrained video generative models for geometry estimation by framing it as a next‑frame prediction task. Unlike prior methods that either train separate depth/normal models or fine‑tune image diffusion backbones, GeoNeXt jointly models images and geometric targets, leveraging the structured knowledge of video models for more data‑efficient learning. Experiments show zero‑shot monocular depth and surface normal estimation that outperforms existing generative approaches and rivals discriminative state‑of‑the‑art methods while using far less training data.
