Reconstructing 3D scenes from a single image is a fundamental challenge in computer vision, with broad applications in virtual reality, robotics, and content creation. Recent methods achieve outstanding performance by leveraging camera-controlled video diffusion models, but rely on iterative diffusion sampling, which greatly limits their practical deployment.

Score distillation turns a pretrained 2D diffusion model into a 3D generator, but the per-step gradient is estimated from a single randomly chosen view: it is high-variance and blind to global shape consistency. Prior work addresses this by retraining the diffusion prior on multi-view data; this improves consistency but makes the sampling contribution inseparable from prior quality.
Dense colored LiDAR maps provide accurate city-scale geometry, but lifting them into 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) retains millions of primitives, making the resulting models costly to store, transmit, render, and adapt. Aggressive primitive reduction alleviates this burden, but can remove the local surface support needed for stable novel-view synthesis and downstream geometric use.
