arXiv:2503. 19947v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generalized metric depth understanding is critical for precise vision-guided robotics, which current state-of-the-art (SOTA) vision-encoders do not support.
arXiv:2512. 16919v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Perceiving and reconstructing 3D scene geometry from visual inputs is crucial for autonomous driving.
arXiv:2607. 21595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite rapid progress, most existing vision-language models (VLMs) built from 2D visual inputs often struggle when handling various 3D tasks that require fine-grained spatial understanding and reasoning.
arXiv:2608.20788v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning-based Multi-View Stereo (MVS) has advanced significantly but often generalizes poorly to unseen scenes, particularly in occluded areas or...

arXiv:2607. 12433v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models have recently become the dominant paradigm for monocular depth estimation (MDE).
arXiv:2604. 02546v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pretraining 3D encoders through alignment with Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has emerged as a promising direction for learning generalizable representations for 3D scene understanding.
arXiv:2601. 11729v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Visual Foundation Models (VFMs), such as DINO and CLIP, excel in semantic understanding of images but exhibit limited spatial reasoning capabilities, which limits their applicability to embodied systems.
arXiv:2606. 20189v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Leveraging Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) for camera-to-LiDAR knowledge distillation offers a promising solution to the scarcity of annotated data needed to represent the immense geometric and kinematic diversity of real-world autonomous driving (AD).
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at 2D semantic understanding but lack intrinsic 3D awareness, resulting in representations that fail to maintain geometric and spatial consistency across video frames. Given the scarcity of large-scale 3D data, we present GeoVR, a novel framework that learns geometric representations using purely 2D video sequences.
