GeoState introduces a view‑decoupled geometry representation for predictive 3D world modeling, separating scene‑state evolution from camera‑dependent observation. It aggregates multi‑view geometry foundation model features into a scene tokenizer, then uses a geometry decoder with camera rays to query the state. An autoregressive world model predicts future scene states while modeling camera motion separately, enabling consistent decoding under any camera and maintaining a single context‑derived scale throughout the rollout.

The paper proposes a new sequence-to-sequence formulation for multi-view stereo (MVS) that jointly predicts 3D geometry for all input views using a global transformer architecture. It introduces ray‑map embeddings to inject camera parameters into image tokens and a unified global cost volume to capture 3D structure across all views. Experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance, outperforming both traditional MVS and feed‑forward reconstruction baselines.

HERMES++ is a unified driving world model that simultaneously performs 3D scene understanding and future geometry prediction. It uses a BEV representation to merge multi‑view spatial data for LLM compatibility, introduces LLM‑enhanced world queries for knowledge transfer, and employs a Current‑to‑Future Link to condition future geometry on semantic context. A Joint Geometric Optimization strategy enforces structural integrity by combining explicit geometric constraints with implicit latent regularization, and extensive benchmark tests show that HERMES++ outperforms specialist methods in both point cloud prediction and scene understanding.
