The paper introduces Z3D, a method that leverages internal representations from 3D Foundation Models (3DFMs) to perform zero‑shot novel depth synthesis. By decoding hidden surfaces and applying latent diffusion on 3DFM representations, Z3D can estimate realistic depth maps for unseen views across multiple datasets. This demonstrates that 3DFMs capture extensive general knowledge about 3D scenes, enabling accurate reconstruction without additional training.

The paper introduces SPAR3S, a sparse voxel‑aligned 3D latent generative model that completes 3D scenes from sparse, unconstrained multi‑view images. By representing only occupied voxels in a compact latent space and training a masked autoregressive transformer with photometric supervision via differentiable 3D Gaussian Splatting, the method predicts missing latent tokens and spatial support, enabling efficient and spatially consistent generation of unseen regions. Experiments on synthetic indoor scenes and RealEstate10k demonstrate higher novel‑view quality and real‑world applicability compared to prior work.

Reconstructing 3D scenes from a single image is a fundamental challenge in computer vision, with broad applications in virtual reality, robotics, and content creation. Recent methods achieve outstanding performance by leveraging camera-controlled video diffusion models, but rely on iterative diffusion sampling, which greatly limits their practical deployment.
