The paper studies how epistemic uncertainty estimates can be used in different ways—either as an additional input feature or as a per‑sample confidence weight in the loss function—to improve 3D LiDAR point cloud segmentation. Experiments on four large‑scale LiDAR benchmarks (ISPRS Vaihingen, AHN3, Paris‑Lille‑3D, and Toronto‑3D) show that uncertainty‑aware models outperform a baseline ANN in mean Intersection over Union, recover minority classes, and better align prediction error with estimated uncertainty. The results suggest that uncertainty can serve multiple roles in the segmentation pipeline beyond merely boosting accuracy.
GAPrompt++ is a multi-granular geometry-aware prompting method designed to adapt pre-trained 3D vision models to downstream tasks efficiently. It introduces a Point Shift Prompter for multi-scale geometric feature extraction, a Keypoint Prompter for local geometric saliency, and a Prompt Propagation mechanism to embed these cues throughout the model hierarchy. Experiments demonstrate that GAPrompt++ outperforms other prompting-based PEFT methods and even surpasses full fine-tuning while using less than 2% trainable parameters, and the authors provide two new challenging benchmarks for future research.

SenseFuse introduces a label‑free fusion approach that balances 2D image and 3D shape encoders for open‑vocabulary 3D instance segmentation. By selecting a scene‑level fusion weight through an adaptive, sensitivity‑based mechanism, it improves mask labeling accuracy across multiple datasets, recovering up to 93% of the potential gain from an oracle weight. The method demonstrates that image and shape encoders have complementary failure patterns, leading to higher instance AP in most evaluated settings.
