AREA3D: Active Reconstruction Agent with Unified Feed-Forward 3D Perception and Vision-Language Guidance

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2512. 05131v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Active 3D reconstruction enables an agent to autonomously select viewpoints to efficiently obtain accurate and complete scene geometry, rather than passively reconstructing scenes from pre-collected images.

Matisse: Evidence-Space Reasoning for Active 3D Reconstruction

Matisse is a training‑free framework that combines active 3D reconstruction with keyframe selection by using evidence from a pretrained generative 3D model. It estimates evidential uncertainty via cross‑attention on 3D latent tokens and derives an evidential information gain to guide view acquisition and keyframe selection, reducing redundant observations and supporting multi‑object scenes with occlusion‑aware aggregation. On GSO30, YCB‑V, and Replica, Matisse improves Chamfer distance by 12.7%, 3.8%, and 9.2% respectively, and speeds up end‑to‑end reconstruction by 1.5× compared to the best baseline.

NeuDonatello: Uncertainty-Aware Framework for Accurate Neural SDF Learning

NeuDonatello is a new framework for neural signed distance function (SDF) learning that explicitly models spatially varying uncertainty using Monte Carlo sampling. By incorporating this uncertainty into an adaptive regularization scheme and an uncertainty-aware SDF-to-density conversion, the method selectively strengthens geometric constraints where RGB supervision is unreliable, thereby improving surface reconstruction accuracy. Experiments show that NeuDonatello achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on diverse scenes using only posed RGB images.

RAG-3DSG: Enhancing 3D Scene Graphs with Re-Shot Guided Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv:2601. 10168v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Open-vocabulary 3D Scene Graph (3DSG) can enhance various downstream tasks in robotics by leveraging structured semantic representations, yet current 3DSG construction methods suffer from semantic inconsistencies caused by noisy cross-image aggregation under occlusions and constrained viewpoints.
