Open vocabulary 3D scene understanding is essential for next-generation interactive systems, empowering users to intuitively query and navigate reconstructed environments using natural language. However, current 3D Gaussian frameworks are often bottlenecked by restrictive multiview capture requirements, costly scene-specific optimization, and the massive memory overhead of storing dense language features.
ExtrinSplat is a new framework that separates geometry from semantics in 3D Gaussian Splatting scenes. It clusters Gaussians into overlapping 3D object groups and uses a Vision‑Language Model to generate lightweight textual hypotheses, creating an extrinsic index layer that handles complex polysemy. This approach reduces adaptation time from hours to minutes, cuts storage overhead by orders of magnitude, and outperforms existing embedding‑based methods on open‑vocabulary 3D object selection and semantic segmentation benchmarks.
arXiv:2509. 24528v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Object retrieval from a scene has become a new trend of research due to its numerous applications.
Scene-Q is a confidence‑aware, coarse‑to‑fine querying framework for indoor mobile robots that grounds natural‑language queries in a 3D map. It normalizes encoder scores with temperature scaling and only invokes a reasoning VLM for low‑confidence cases, while high‑confidence queries are answered by fast retrieval. The method improves open‑vocabulary 3D instance segmentation on ScanNet200 and natural‑language 3D instance retrieval on real‑world reconstructions, especially for spatial and relational queries, while maintaining a substantial fraction of queries on the fast path.
