arXiv:2603. 05607v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) relies on structured and editable geometric representations, yet existing generative methods are constrained by small annotated datasets with explicit design histories or boundary representation (BRep) labels.
arXiv:2605. 10873v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recovering editable CAD programs from images or 3D observations is central to AI-assisted design, but progress is difficult to measure because existing evaluations are fragmented across datasets, modalities, and metrics.
VGGT-CAD is a geometry‑aware framework that reconstructs parametric CAD 3D models from single and multi‑view images. It incorporates pretrained 3D geometric priors by encoding camera parameters as condition tokens and jointly modeling them with image tokens. The method introduces a variable‑view cross‑view context aggregation module and a training‑free geometry‑aware view selection strategy, and decodes the learned representation into CAD command sequences using a non‑autoregressive decoder. Additionally, VideoCAD, a large‑scale multi‑view video benchmark derived from existing CAD data, is presented to evaluate the approach.

arXiv:2605. 01171v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent progress, recovering parametric CAD construction sequences from geometric input, such as meshes or point clouds, is a key challenge for design and manufacturing, as existing CAD reconstruction and generation methods are largely restricted to difficult-to-edit formats like meshes or Breps or editable simple sketch-and-extrude pipelines and low-complexity datasets.
CADSplat is a framework that reconstructs photorealistic, geometrically accurate digital twins from fewer than 15 wide‑baseline images by regularizing 3D Gaussian Splatting with an explicit CAD shape prior. It matches segmented object silhouettes to a CAD library to retrieve a suitable model and camera poses, then anchors Gaussian primitives to the model’s surface and jointly optimizes splat parameters, registration, and a non‑rigid deformation field. Experiments on two real‑world datasets show CADSplat outperforms baselines, especially in sparse and self‑occluded scenarios, and its gains mainly stem from constraining splats to a surface rather than the CAD shape itself.

CADReasoner is a model that iteratively refines its CAD reconstruction by comparing the input shape with the predicted mesh, outputting a runnable CadQuery Python program. It fuses multi‑view renders and point clouds and uses a scan‑simulation protocol to bridge realism gaps during training and evaluation. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on DeepCAD, Fusion 360, and MCB benchmarks for both clean and scan‑sim tracks.
The paper introduces SightCAD, a framework for parametric CAD reconstruction that explicitly handles view feasibility constraints in realistic indoor scenes. It learns a view selector to choose a small set of feasible viewpoints for a vision‑language model that generates executable CadQuery code, and jointly trains the selector and the VLM using a reward that depends on the final geometric fidelity. The approach outperforms baseline methods on several benchmarks, achieving higher intersection‑over‑union scores and a lower invalid‑code rate.
