Recovering Black-Box Point Cloud Models from Pose Shifts via Derivative-Free Optimization

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces CanDO, a test‑time canonicalization technique that restores performance of score‑only black‑box point cloud models when faced with pose shifts. CanDO searches for an input transformation that maximizes model confidence using derivative‑free optimization, requiring only forward queries. Experiments show that it recovers 76% of the oracle gap for azimuthal misorientation and 51% for arbitrary SO(3) rotations in object part segmentation tasks.

GAPrompt++: Multi-Granular Geometry-Aware Point Cloud Prompt for 3D Vision Model

GAPrompt++ is a multi-granular geometry-aware prompting method designed to adapt pre-trained 3D vision models to downstream tasks efficiently. It introduces a Point Shift Prompter for multi-scale geometric feature extraction, a Keypoint Prompter for local geometric saliency, and a Prompt Propagation mechanism to embed these cues throughout the model hierarchy. Experiments demonstrate that GAPrompt++ outperforms other prompting-based PEFT methods and even surpasses full fine-tuning while using less than 2% trainable parameters, and the authors provide two new challenging benchmarks for future research.
