PePESeg3D introduces perception priors into a multi‑scale 3D Gaussian segmentation pipeline, integrating monocular depth and mask constraints during geometry reconstruction and dense depth‑color cues with view‑consistent centroid supervision during contrastive feature learning. This dual‑stage approach aligns geometry with semantic structure and compensates for incomplete mask supervision from 2D foundation models. Experiments on SPIn‑NeRF, LERF‑Mask, and NVOS benchmarks show state‑of‑the‑art performance in both multi‑scale segmentation and scene reconstruction.
GaussianDS introduces a depth‑supervised framework for 3D Gaussian Splatting that jointly optimizes RGB appearance, depth, and compact semantics from scratch. By arranging multi‑view images into a pose‑aware pseudo‑video and propagating view‑consistent masks via SAM2, the method aligns semantic lifting with geometric cues, using depth supervision and edge‑aware refinement to curb semantic drift and boundary leakage. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on LERF and 3D‑OVS benchmarks while preserving high‑fidelity reconstruction and enabling downstream tasks such as 3D object removal.
The paper introduces a biologically inspired framework that learns object‑centric visual representations from raw videos without human annotations or camera calibration. By using motion boundaries detected via optical flow and clustering to create pseudo‑instance masks, the method supervises a single‑image encoder with pixel‑level pairwise metric learning. Training on 195 million pseudo‑labeled frames and expanding to 421 million frames through Motion‑Verified Self‑Training, the approach yields Swin‑based encoders that outperform or match supervised and self‑supervised baselines on tasks such as monocular depth estimation, 3D object detection, 3D occupancy prediction, and end‑to‑end planning.
Recent advancements in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have enabled language-guided scene understanding. However, existing Referring 3D Gaussian Splatting (R3DGS) methods are fundamentally restricted to single-target queries.
PointGauss is a 3D-native framework that performs semantic parsing and instance segmentation on 3D Gaussian splatting representations by treating Gaussian primitives as unstructured point sets and extracting scale‑invariant geometric features with Point Transformer V3. It introduces an adaptive region‑of‑interest cropping strategy and an instance‑aware distance‑constrained rasterization pipeline to enable scalable, view‑consistent pixel‑level projections. The authors also release SplatSeg‑360, a cross‑scale benchmark with 32 complex scenes and over 6,300 aligned 2D‑3D masks, and show that PointGauss achieves real‑time performance with state‑of‑the‑art 3D‑mIoU (~90%) and 2D‑mIoU (~80%) scores.
