HARMONY: Hierarchical Agentic Reasoning for MONocular Image-to-Scene Synthesis

HARMONY is a hierarchical chain-of-thought framework that reconstructs complete 3D indoor scenes from a single monocular image. It combines agentic reasoning with visual geometry foundation models, starting with camera calibration and semantic layout recovery, then placing objects hierarchically while refining geometry with point cloud estimations. The method achieves semantically consistent scenes that align perceptually with the input image, outperforming existing baselines on synthetic and real-world data.

WorldSculpt: Generating Compositional Worlds from Grounded Videos

WorldSculpt presents a method for generating compositional 3D representations of cluttered scenes with hundreds of objects by adapting a single-object 3D generative prior to multi-view observations. The approach, built on Pixal3D with a multi-view conditioning pathway, can generalize to highly occluded scenes without scene-level training. The authors also introduce the UE-MeshyScene benchmark and demonstrate that their method outperforms prior approaches across various evaluation settings, including converting existing 3DGS worlds into compositional mesh scenes.

Code4Scene: Benchmarking Coding Agents for Constructing and Editing 3D Scenes

Code4Scene is a benchmark that evaluates coding agents on constructing and editing 3D scenes in Unreal Engine. It tests agents on two tasks: construction, where they must build a scene from open‑ended language, and editing, where they must recover a target scene from reference images while preserving everything else. The benchmark measures task fulfillment, artifact integrity, and physical validity, revealing that construction and editing performance are correlated but not interchangeable, with agents struggling most with spatial composition and precise edits.
