Zero-Shot Novel Depth Synthesis Using 3D Foundation Models Scene Representations

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.

Zero-Shot Novel Depth Synthesis Using 3D Foundation Models Scene Representations

The paper explores how 3D Foundation Models (3DFMs) like VGGT can be leveraged for zero‑shot depth synthesis. By decoding hidden surfaces from the models’ internal representations, the authors introduce Z3D, a method that uses latent diffusion on 3DFM representations to estimate pointmaps in unseen views. Experiments demonstrate that Z3D can generate realistic depth maps across multiple datasets.

MetricAnything: Scaling Metric Depth Pretraining with Noisy Heterogeneous Sources

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.
