arXiv:2605. 17131v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Point cloud stands as the most widely adopted format for representing 3D shapes and scenes due to its simplicity and geometric fidelity.
arXiv:2606. 08014v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate 3D instance segmentation in point cloud data is critical for machine vision applications.
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.
