O3N: Omnidirectional Open-Vocabulary Occupancy Prediction for Embodied Intelligent Robotics

O3N is a novel framework that performs open‑vocabulary occupancy prediction from a single omnidirectional RGB image. It introduces a polar‑spiral voxel embedding (PsM) for continuous 360° spatial representation, an Occupancy Cost Aggregation (OCA) module that unifies geometric and semantic supervision, and a Natural Modality Alignment (NMA) pathway that aligns visual, voxel, and text features. Experiments show state‑of‑the‑art results on QuadOcc and Human360Occ benchmarks, with strong cross‑scene generalization and semantic scalability.

MonoVoc: Decoupling Geometry and Semantics for Lightweight Monocular Open-Vocabulary 3D Gaussians

Open vocabulary 3D scene understanding is essential for next-generation interactive systems, empowering users to intuitively query and navigate reconstructed environments using natural language. However, current 3D Gaussian frameworks are often bottlenecked by restrictive multiview capture requirements, costly scene-specific optimization, and the massive memory overhead of storing dense language features.

ExtrinSplat: Decoupling Geometry and Semantics for Open-Vocabulary Understanding in 3D Gaussian Splatting

ExtrinSplat is a new framework that separates geometry from semantics in 3D Gaussian Splatting scenes. It clusters Gaussians into overlapping 3D object groups and uses a Vision‑Language Model to generate lightweight textual hypotheses, creating an extrinsic index layer that handles complex polysemy. This approach reduces adaptation time from hours to minutes, cuts storage overhead by orders of magnitude, and outperforms existing embedding‑based methods on open‑vocabulary 3D object selection and semantic segmentation benchmarks.

OccAnyScene: Towards Unified Indoor-Outdoor 3D Occupancy Prediction

OccAnyScene introduces a unified approach for 3D occupancy prediction across both indoor and outdoor scenes, addressing the challenge of handling diverse camera setups, spatial ranges, voxel specifications, and semantic taxonomies. The method builds on a pretrained depth model, using pixel-aligned frustum feature aggregation and frustum-parameterized Gaussian construction to generate scene-adaptive occupancy predictions. It achieves state-of-the-art performance, scoring 59.92% mIoU on Occ-ScanNet and 23.06% mIoU on SurroundOcc-nuScenes.
