NeuSOGA3D: A Neuro-Symbolic Framework for Explainable 3D Geometric Reconstruction

Read the original on arXiv AI →

NeuSOGA3D is a hybrid neuro‑symbolic framework that reconstructs 3D geometry from unorganized point clouds by combining learned perceptual priors with explicit symbolic geometric reasoning. It projects point clouds onto orthographic planes, builds symbolic implicit spline representations, and fuses them via shape‑preserving constructive solid geometry to produce a coarse visual hull. Additional detail is added through cross‑sectional decomposition and volumetric reconstruction with Partial Shape‑Preserving Splines, yielding CAD‑compatible, structurally meaningful models across all 40 ModelNet40 categories.

Neuro-Symbolic Geometric Abstraction (NeuSOGA): From Observations to Symbolic Mathematical Representations

Neuro‑Symbolic Geometric Abstraction (NeuSOGA) is a framework that converts raw observations into explicit symbolic mathematical representations. It achieves this by sequentially generating topological and geometric abstractions, using tools such as Euclidean Distance Transforms, Segment Anything, and Implicit Area Splines. The resulting analytical implicit models are interpretable, editable, and support arbitrary‑order smoothness, additive composition, and closed‑form evaluation across diverse sensing modalities.

Distilling Neuro-Symbolic Programs into 3D Multi-modal LLMs

arXiv:2606. 01215v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current 3D spatial reasoning methods face a fundamental trade-off: neuro-symbolic 3D (NS3D) concept learners achieve interpretable reasoning through compositional programs but are constrained to closed-set concept vocabularies and simple programs; end-to-end 3D multi-modal LLMs (3D MLLMs) could handle complex natural language and open-vocabulary concepts but suffer from black-box reasoning without explicit spatial verification.

MEGA: Object-Level Mesh Extraction from 3D Gaussian Splatting via Spatial Visual Distillation

MEGA is a new framework that extracts object-level, watertight meshes from 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scenes. It uses a segment-then-mesh approach, leveraging Spatial Visual Distillation (SVD) to sample diverse camera views of each segmented object and train a mesh reconstruction model with photometric supervision. Experiments on popular benchmarks show that MEGA outperforms existing methods in accurately recovering object-level 3D occupancy and supports complex physical interactions by combining high-quality meshes with photorealistic 3DGS rendering.

3D-Aware VLMs with Implicit and Explicit Geometries

arXiv:2607. 21595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite rapid progress, most existing vision-language models (VLMs) built from 2D visual inputs often struggle when handling various 3D tasks that require fine-grained spatial understanding and reasoning.

Generalizable Neural Reconstruction of High-Fidelity Surfaces via Sparse Volumetric Representations

The paper introduces SVRecon, a generalizable neural surface reconstruction framework that uses sparse volumetric representations to achieve high-resolution 3D reconstruction. It employs a two-stage architecture: first predicting occupied voxels with an occupancy network, then rendering only within those regions using specialized sparse algorithms. This approach allows reconstruction at resolutions up to 512³ on 32 GB hardware, producing smoother and more precise surfaces, especially in sparse-view scenarios.
