UniQueR is a unified query‑based feedforward framework that reconstructs 3D scenes from unposed images by treating reconstruction as a sparse 3D query inference problem. It learns a compact set of 3D anchor points that serve as explicit geometric queries, allowing the network to infer scene structure—including occluded geometry—in a single forward pass. By encoding spatial and appearance priors directly in global 3D space and using a decoupled cross‑attention design, UniQueR achieves strong geometric expressiveness while reducing memory and computational cost, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art feedforward methods on Mip‑NeRF 360 and VR‑NeRF with far fewer primitives.

The paper introduces SVRecon, a generalizable neural surface reconstruction framework that uses sparse volumetric representations to achieve high-resolution 3D reconstruction. It employs a two-stage architecture: first predicting occupied voxels with an occupancy network, then rendering only within those regions using specialized sparse algorithms. This approach allows reconstruction at resolutions up to 512³ on 32 GB hardware, producing smoother and more precise surfaces, especially in sparse-view scenarios.

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.
The paper presents a training‑free filtering method for feed‑forward 3D Gaussian Splatting that removes transient distractors from 3D reconstructions. By excluding each input’s per‑view Gaussians and re‑rendering the scene, the method identifies inconsistent content through feature similarity and reconstruction error reduction. The approach improves novel‑view quality across multiple models and benchmarks while preserving clean scenes.
The paper introduces a structure‑aware merging pipeline that consolidates per‑pixel 3D Gaussian primitives from any feed‑forward reconstruction method into a compact, content‑adaptive Gaussian set. By grouping spatially coherent Gaussians with adaptive superpixel segmentation guided by a saliency map, compressing clusters via a learned encoder, and merging representations across views using geometric overlap and feature similarity, the method reduces the number of Gaussians to about one‑twentieth of the original while preserving visual quality. A level‑of‑detail decoder allows controllable resolution, and the pipeline operates as a backbone‑agnostic post‑processing module, improving robustness and rendering efficiency.

Reconstructing 3D shapes from a single image remains a fundamental yet challenging problem in computer vision. Traditional monocular 3D generation pipelines typically synthesize multiple views from a single input image before applying Neural Radiance Field (NeRF)-based reconstruction.

Geometry is invariant to viewpoint, which makes any collection of images a redundant encoding of a single 3D state. Existing feed-forward reconstruction models fail to exploit this: per-view methods emit overlapping, unaligned pointmaps that grow linearly with input count, while global-latent methods commit to a fixed, low-resolution output.
