Printing the Underdetermined: Materializing Multi-solutionness in Figurative Paintings

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper challenges the common assumption that figurative paintings represent a single, recoverable 3D scene. It introduces the concept of multi-solutionness, highlighting how unobserved content and ambiguous visual cues allow multiple plausible 3D configurations. The authors present a workflow that generates multiple camera-orbit video sequences from a single painting, reconstructs each with 3D Gaussian Splatting, and fabricates the resulting point-based Gaussian scenes as physical artifacts via DreamPrinting, thereby making the non-uniqueness of interpretations explicit and inspectable.

Fusion-Aware Direct 3D Gaussian Generation with Structured Patch Latent Flows

The paper introduces a fusion‑aware hierarchical Gaussian patch representation that enables direct class‑guided generation of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) objects. By decomposing irregular Gaussian sets into canonical local patches and encoding them as structured tokens, the method fuses global class semantics with patch‑level geometry, appearance, spatial correspondence, and rendering‑sensitive cues. A structure‑aware rectified flow model, conditioned on patch positions and coupled with global‑local velocity prediction and density‑aware weighting, produces class‑conditioned 3DGS objects within seconds, achieving more coherent geometry, sharper local details, and better multi‑view consistency than baseline models.

CADSplat: Sparse-View 3D Gaussian Splatting Aided by CAD Models for Robust, Photorealistic Digital-Twin Reconstruction

CADSplat is a framework that reconstructs photorealistic, geometrically accurate digital twins from fewer than 15 wide‑baseline images by regularizing 3D Gaussian Splatting with an explicit CAD shape prior. It matches segmented object silhouettes to a CAD library to retrieve a suitable model and camera poses, then anchors Gaussian primitives to the model’s surface and jointly optimizes splat parameters, registration, and a non‑rigid deformation field. Experiments on two real‑world datasets show CADSplat outperforms baselines, especially in sparse and self‑occluded scenarios, and its gains mainly stem from constraining splats to a surface rather than the CAD shape itself.

WINGS: Reference-Free Gaussian Splatting Inpainting with 3D-Native Generative Priors

The paper introduces WINGS, a reference‑free Gaussian splatting inpainting technique that operates directly in 3D. It uses a large, pre‑trained 3D generative prior and a structure completion network to reconstruct missing geometry and appearance without generating reference views. The method claims faster performance and reduced multi‑view inconsistency compared to 2D diffusion‑based approaches, and its effectiveness is validated through experiments and a user study.

3DTexMOR: 3D Gaussian Multi-Object Removal via Texture-Space Inpainting

3DTexMOR introduces a method for removing multiple 3D objects from reconstructed scenes by performing texture-space inpainting rather than 2D image inpainting. The approach aggregates observations into shared texture maps, inpaints missing regions, and reprojects the completed maps to supervise Gaussian scene completion, while decomposing appearance to avoid view-dependent artifacts. Experiments show that this technique yields visually plausible results and outperforms existing methods, improving PSNR by 5.8 dB and reducing LPIPS by at least 22%.
