CADSplat: Sparse-View 3D Gaussian Splatting Aided by CAD Models for Robust, Photorealistic Digital-Twin Reconstruction

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.

Reconstruction of a 3D wireframe from a single line drawing via generative depth estimation

The paper presents a method for reconstructing 3D wireframes from single 2D line drawings by treating the task as conditional depth estimation. It uses a Latent Diffusion Model with spatial conditioning on the sketch and optional partial-depth cues to predict depth for each drawn pixel, producing a 3D wireframe that faithfully matches the visible strokes. Trained on over three million synthetic image‑depth pairs from CAD wireframes, the approach achieves a best‑of‑five normalized depth error of 3.9% and demonstrates robust performance across varying shape complexities.

ACD-GS: Asymmetric Curvature-aware Densification for 3D Gaussian Splatting

ACD-GS introduces an Asymmetric Curvature-aware Densification framework for 3D Gaussian Splatting that uses second-order depth responses to guide cloning and splitting, thereby better capturing geometric discontinuities. It incorporates a multi-view photometric consistency constraint and a capacity-aware adaptive regulation strategy to balance densification and pruning during training. The approach reduces Gaussian count and storage by nearly 60% while maintaining competitive rendering fidelity, outperforming existing methods across multiple datasets.
