Artic-O is an end‑to‑end, feed‑forward framework that reconstructs articulated objects from sparse images by learning latent geometry. It maps multi‑state observations into a pretrained latent geometry space, uses a frozen flow‑matching decoder for complete‑shape priors, and fuses visual tokens with geometry latents in an image‑grounded part‑reasoning module to segment active parts and predict articulation. Trained with a geometry‑to‑articulation curriculum and a decoupled two‑pass strategy, Artic‑O achieves high reconstruction quality and articulation accuracy while drastically reducing inference time from 9 minutes to about 0.3 seconds per object.

Track2Art is a motion‑centric framework that recovers articulated object models from RGB‑D interaction videos by lifting 2D point tracks into 3D trajectories. It groups these trajectories into rigid‑part hypotheses and uses learned‑analytic reasoning to infer directed kinematic relations, joint types, and joint geometry. On the PartNet‑Mobility benchmark, it achieves 0.695 Point IoU and 0.410 end‑to‑end J@20 without requiring ground‑truth part counts or test‑time optimization.

The paper introduces MILO, a framework that uses Large Reconstruction Models (LRMs) to reconstruct detailed 3D human‑object interactions from a single image. By treating the LRM mesh as a geometric scaffold, MILO segments it into human and object parts, fits a parametric body model to the human component, and optionally aligns an object template to the object component. The approach achieves higher reconstruction accuracy than existing baselines across multiple benchmarks and interaction scenarios.

FunArt is a framework that builds articulation‑aware functional 3D scene graphs from a single static RGB‑D observation. It reconstructs object instances, converts their geometry into the O‑Voxel representation of TRELLIS.2, and uses a frozen sparse‑compression VAE as a structural prior. A lightweight query‑based decoder jointly segments movable parts and functional interactive elements while estimating motion type, axis, origin, and range, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on the Articulate3D dataset.
