GS‑Net is a lightweight plug‑and‑play module that expands sparse Structure‑from‑Motion point clouds into dense Gaussian primitives, enabling cross‑sensor view synthesis for autonomous driving. It learns a generalizable initialization for 3D Gaussian Splatting, improving rendering quality for both interpolated and extrapolated camera viewpoints. The authors introduce CARLA‑NVS, a benchmark with 12 uniformly spaced cameras, and show that GS‑Net outperforms standard 3DGS by 2.08 dB PSNR on interpolated views and 1.86 dB on extrapolated views while being 50× faster to initialize.
arXiv:2601. 22054v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling has powered recent advances in vision foundation models, yet extending this paradigm to metric depth estimation remains challenging due to heterogeneous sensor noise, camera-dependent biases, and metric ambiguity in noisy cross-source 3D data.

arXiv:2607. 08970v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent benchmarks for VLMs largely assess single- or limited-view perception, leaving untested the core cognitive ability to integrate observations across viewpoints into a coherent, world-centric (allocentric) 3D mental model.
