Technical note on: Zero-Training Feature-Space Alignment via Information Geometry

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces Zero-Training Fisher Geometry Alignment (ZFGA), a closed‑form test‑time adaptation technique that aligns the Fisher geometry of test‑time feature embeddings with a reference geometry from clean data, improving robustness to covariate shift without altering model parameters. ZFGA is evaluated on CIFAR‑10‑C and ImageNet‑C with ResNet‑50, DINO ViT‑S/16, and CLIP ViT‑B/32, consistently outperforming zero‑shot inference and remaining stable across all three model families. Compared to other training‑free and gradient‑based methods, ZFGA uniquely avoids substantial performance degradation and requires only forward passes and matrix operations at inference time, making it a lightweight, deterministic alternative to optimization‑based test‑time adaptation.

SUFLECA: Scaling Up Feature Learning for CAD-to-image Alignment

SUFLECA is a weakly supervised framework that improves zero‑shot CAD‑to‑image alignment by scaling geometry‑grounded feature learning using Normalized Object Coordinates across up to 12 real and synthetic datasets. It introduces a geometrically consistent matching algorithm that reliably establishes CAD‑to‑image correspondences, enabling accurate, sub‑second alignment without iterative pose refinement. On the ScanNet25k benchmark, SUFLECA achieves 32.8%/42.6% category/instance accuracy, outperforming the strongest zero‑shot baseline by 9.7/12.5 percentage points and surpassing existing pose‑supervised methods for the first time.

Self-Geometry: GT-Free and Plug-and-Play Test-Time Adaptation for Geometrically Consistent 3D Vision Foundation Models

The paper introduces Self-Geometry, a plug‑and‑play test‑time adaptation framework that enforces explicit multi‑view geometric constraints on Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) using 2D pixel correspondences as pseudo ground truth. It combines Geometric Disentanglement Optimization—mixing Multi‑View and Epipolar Consistency losses with Gradient Disentanglement—to avoid gradient conflicts, a Frame Angular‑Neighbor sampler based on SO(3) geodesic distances to select informative views, and a Lightweight TTA module that adapts VFMs via LoRA. Experiments on six VFMs and four benchmarks (7Scenes, ETH3D, ScanNet++, HiRoom) show consistent improvements in pose and geometry estimation.
