arXiv:2605. 01171v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent progress, recovering parametric CAD construction sequences from geometric input, such as meshes or point clouds, is a key challenge for design and manufacturing, as existing CAD reconstruction and generation methods are largely restricted to difficult-to-edit formats like meshes or Breps or editable simple sketch-and-extrude pipelines and low-complexity datasets.

RealCADBench is a new benchmark for evaluating intent‑to‑program parametric CAD modeling, featuring 12,632 tasks drawn from 19 factory‑automation categories and covering text, 2D drawings, product photos, and rendered images for both Part and Assembly modeling. The study reports results on a 1,770‑task evaluation slice, using metrics such as executability, Solid IoU, Surface IoU, and a rubric‑based visual‑semantic identity Judge. Across nine standalone and six frontier‑scale large models, no single model dominates all four metrics, highlighting diverse strengths and failure modes like missing fine structures and incorrect assembly placement.

VGGT-CAD is a geometry‑aware framework that reconstructs parametric CAD 3D models from single and multi‑view images. It incorporates pretrained 3D geometric priors by encoding camera parameters as condition tokens and jointly modeling them with image tokens. The method introduces a variable‑view cross‑view context aggregation module and a training‑free geometry‑aware view selection strategy, and decodes the learned representation into CAD command sequences using a non‑autoregressive decoder. Additionally, VideoCAD, a large‑scale multi‑view video benchmark derived from existing CAD data, is presented to evaluate the approach.
