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.

We study the challenging problem of novel view video synthesis from single images or monocular videos. Existing methods, which operate under the assumption that pre-trained video models lack native novel view synthesis capability and enforce view alignment via camera conditioning, task-specific fine-tuning, or stepwise hard denoising guidance, often suffer from artifacts and compromised global scene consistency.
RecGen3D is a framework that merges feed‑forward reconstruction and diffusion‑based generation to address the trade‑off between reconstruction fidelity and generative plausibility in sparse‑view 3D modeling. By aligning both models in a shared canonical space and using decoupled cooperative learning, the system stabilizes training and allows the reconstruction module to supply canonical geometric anchors while the diffusion generator refines and completes the structure. Experiments show that RecGen3D outperforms existing methods in producing complete and consistent 3D models from sparse observations.
