PriorPose introduces a reference-guided correspondence framework for category-level object pose estimation that jointly performs canonicalization and alignment in a shared feature space. By embedding partial observations and a category prior as token sets in a seeded transformer, the network predicts per-point NOCS fields and a canonical deformation, while a deep pose head regresses the similarity transform. A two-part shape consistency objective couples correspondence, deformation, and pose, reducing reliance on memorized canonical orientations and avoiding error cascades, leading to state-of-the-art results on standard and larger-category benchmarks, especially under strict pose thresholds.

The paper introduces a generalizable deformation learning framework that reconstructs 3D objects by deforming a category-level shape template to match a monocular observation. It employs a geometry-guided feature modeling mechanism to enrich foundation features with template topology, creating a geometry-aware representation that is explicitly correlated with the target observation for precise deformation. A view-adaptive feature aggregation module further bridges the gap between the fixed template and arbitrary target views by leveraging multi-view template features and camera poses, ensuring robust feature alignment across diverse viewpoints.

SUFLECA is a weakly supervised framework that improves zero‑shot CAD‑to‑image alignment by scaling geometry‑grounded feature learning using Normalized Object Coordinates across up to 12 real and synthetic datasets. It introduces a geometrically consistent matching algorithm that reliably establishes CAD‑to‑image correspondences, enabling accurate, sub‑second alignment without iterative pose refinement. On the ScanNet25k benchmark, SUFLECA achieves 32.8%/42.6% category/instance accuracy, outperforming the strongest zero‑shot baseline by 9.7/12.5 percentage points and surpassing existing pose‑supervised methods for the first time.

P-CORE introduces a self‑supervised surface consistency technique for point‑based neural representations, enabling robust adaptation to large deformations without needing ground‑truth deformed images. By generating random deformations and enforcing that the predicted surface after deformation matches the deformation applied to the original surface prediction, the method leverages attention‑based point representations with a learned interpolation kernel. Experiments on synthetic benchmarks and real‑world datasets show improved zero‑shot editing performance and reduced artifacts compared to existing point‑based approaches.

The paper introduces GeoNeXt, a framework that repurposes pretrained video generative models for geometry estimation by framing it as a next‑frame prediction task. Unlike prior methods that either train separate depth/normal models or fine‑tune image diffusion backbones, GeoNeXt jointly models images and geometric targets, leveraging the structured knowledge of video models for more data‑efficient learning. Experiments show zero‑shot monocular depth and surface normal estimation that outperforms existing generative approaches and rivals discriminative state‑of‑the‑art methods while using far less training data.
