PIVOT is a new multi‑trajectory dataset and evaluation framework that captures real‑world scenes with diverse camera paths, preserving both sensor‑derived measured poses and COLMAP‑optimized poses along with calibrated and optimized intrinsics. It defines three benchmark families—seen vs. unseen trajectory generalization, measured vs. optimized pose sensitivity, and calibrated vs. optimized intrinsics sensitivity—and introduces a directed pose‑space Chamfer distance to assess pose coverage. The first version of PIVOT includes five scenes recorded with a DJI Mini 4 Pro and offers an open processing and Nerfstudio‑based evaluation toolchain, revealing a consistent quality gap between held‑out and unseen trajectories and significant sensitivity to pose source and camera intrinsics.

TAPVid-MV is a new benchmark for tracking any point in 3D across multiple synchronized camera views. It comprises 284 sequences, 1,142 calibrated camera streams, and 109,769 point tracks, covering indoor and outdoor domains and derived from various modalities such as depth, LiDAR, SLAM, and simulation. The dataset is visually verified, and evaluation shows that current multi‑view trackers do not consistently outperform monocular trackers, highlighting geometry recovery as a key bottleneck.

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a benchmark that assesses visual generators’ physical consistency during ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. It shows that current pose‑free models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state, and that pairwise supervision in training does not simultaneously improve these aspects. The authors suggest a trajectory‑centric approach that couples self‑conditioned rollouts with explicit pose and visibility supervision to address these limitations.

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a new benchmark that assesses the physical consistency of visual generators under ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. Experiments on 16 pose‑free generators and two pose‑conditioned references show that current models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state simultaneously. A follow‑up study using EgoGen‑Train demonstrates that pairwise supervision does not effectively improve both metrics together, suggesting the need for a trajectory‑centric training paradigm.

Free-viewpoint 3D scene media is increasingly important for immersive applications, yet practical capture often suffers from severe view sparsity and motion blur. Although neural rendering has advanced sparse-view synthesis, existing blur-aware methods typically require substantial multi-view redundancy, accurate camera poses, or costly per-scene optimization.
