arXiv:2609.08345v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Representing a 3D scene as multi-view images allows 2D VLMs to reason in 3D by reusing priors from pre-training, sidestepping the scarcity of annotat...
arXiv:2607. 25912v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have shown strong potential for general robot manipulation, but most existing models rely on 2D visual-language backbones and lack fine-grained 3D understanding of target objects, especially under occlusion, pose variation, scale changes, and precise spatial interaction.
arXiv:2609.19716v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pre-trained 3D vision models have substantially advanced point cloud analysis, yet adapting them to downstream tasks via full fine-tuning is computatio...
The paper introduces GeoNeXt, a framework that repurposes pretrained video generative models for geometry estimation by framing it as a next‑frame prediction task. Unlike prior methods that either train separate depth/normal models or fine‑tune image diffusion backbones, GeoNeXt jointly models images and geometric targets, leveraging the structured knowledge of video models for more data‑efficient learning. Experiments show zero‑shot monocular depth and surface normal estimation that outperforms existing generative approaches and rivals discriminative state‑of‑the‑art methods while using far less training data.
