SpatialCrafter: Single Image World Modeling with Generative 3D Proxies
SpatialCrafter introduces a two‑stage framework for single‑image world modeling that first generates a global 3D proxy using a Point‑anchored Sparse Structure Flow module, then refines appearance with a Generative Deferred Refiner built on a video diffusion model. The method incorporates Parallel Geometry Injection and Proxy‑Aware Corruption training to integrate the proxy without disrupting the pretrained generative manifold, and it is evaluated on a newly constructed dataset of 115K scenes. Experiments demonstrate that SpatialCrafter outperforms existing approaches, reducing long‑term drift and maintaining consistency under rapid camera motion and extreme viewpoints.

Video Generative Models as Geometry Learner
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.

PoseDreamer: Scalable and Photorealistic Human Data Generation Pipeline with Diffusion Models
PoseDreamer is a new pipeline that uses diffusion models to generate large‑scale synthetic datasets for 3D human mesh estimation, providing 3D mesh annotations that remain aligned with the generated images. The system incorporates controllable image generation, Direct Preference Optimization for control alignment, curriculum‑based hard sample mining, and multi‑stage quality filtering to produce over 500,000 high‑quality samples with a 76% improvement in image‑quality metrics over traditional rendering‑based datasets. Models trained on PoseDreamer match or surpass those trained on real‑world or conventional synthetic data, and combining PoseDreamer with synthetic datasets yields better performance than mixing real and synthetic data alone.

PRISM: Feed-Forward Single-Image 3D Reconstruction via Geometric Warp-Residual Modeling
Reconstructing 3D scenes from a single image is a fundamental challenge in computer vision, with broad applications in virtual reality, robotics, and content creation. Recent methods achieve outstanding performance by leveraging camera-controlled video diffusion models, but rely on iterative diffusion sampling, which greatly limits their practical deployment.
