GeoCond is a lightweight reliability adapter that enhances frozen feed‑forward 3D reconstruction backbones by reading their predicted geometry to produce pose‑level uncertainty and a refinement gate. It can be trained using permutation‑orbit variance, ground‑truth pose error, or cycle residuals from unlabeled pose graphs, and at inference requires only a single backbone pass plus a small MLP. On the VGGT backbone, GeoCond reduces out‑of‑distribution AUSE from 0.32 to 0.20, transfers zero‑shot to outdoor extreme‑view scenes, and prevents collapse from uniform bundle adjustment, while also enabling gated refinement, pose‑graph weighting, calibration, curation, and capture decisions.
Feed-forward 3D foundation models such as VGGT predict cameras, depth, and point maps in a single pass, but can fail silently under low overlap, low parallax, and extreme relative rotation. Stratified...
arXiv:2607. 02561v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Consumer depth sensors such as the LiDAR scanner on recent iPhones provide metric range, but their useful range is short and their returns are sparse.
The paper introduces G-ray, a ray-level relative position encoding for multi-view vision Transformers that remains consistent across different camera projections. By parameterizing rotary phases with camera-local ray angles, G-ray achieves projection-invariant positional consistency and can be integrated with existing encodings without extra learned parameters. Experiments on 3D reconstruction and novel-view synthesis benchmarks show that G-ray improves performance, notably reducing mean pointmap relative error by 45.8% over MapAnything.
arXiv:2608. 07579v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1 evaluates multi-camera 3D perception in large indoor warehouses under a synthetic-to-real (Sim2Real) setting; depth is available only for training and validation, so inference is RGB-only.
arXiv:2610.07883v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A correctly reconstructed distant point appears uncertain even when a frozen 3D model processes equivalent inputs because its output frame rotates frac...
