Motion- and Gravity-Aware Feedforward 3D Reconstruction

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper presents a motion- and gravity-aware framework for feed-forward transformer models in multi-view 3D reconstruction. By providing residual optical flow and gravity direction as privileged signals during training, the model learns stronger geometric representations while remaining efficient at inference. Experiments demonstrate consistent accuracy gains, particularly in dynamic scenes and challenging camera motions, with the optimal integration stage depending on the backbone architecture.

Revisiting Multi-View Stereo: A Sequence-to-Sequence Formulation

The paper proposes a new sequence-to-sequence formulation for multi-view stereo (MVS) that jointly predicts 3D geometry for all input views using a global transformer architecture. It introduces ray‑map embeddings to inject camera parameters into image tokens and a unified global cost volume to capture 3D structure across all views. Experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance, outperforming both traditional MVS and feed‑forward reconstruction baselines.

ControlFlow3D: Distilling Multi-View Knowledge into Latent Flow Matching for Point Cloud Upsampling

ControlFlow3D is a framework that upsamples point clouds by distilling knowledge from pretrained foundation models into a lightweight generation network. It performs conditional flow matching in a latent space defined by a frozen 3D encoder, using unsupervised soft KMeans to cluster multi‑view image tokens and 3D latent tokens into shared prototypes that guide the flow trajectory. A Mamba‑based geometry decoder then maps latent features to dense coordinates with linear complexity, and the authors introduce ShapeNetPU, a 35K‑object multi‑modal benchmark 31 times larger than previous datasets.
