UniQueR: Unified Query-based Feedforward 3D Reconstruction

Read the original on arXiv AI →

UniQueR is a unified query‑based feedforward framework that reconstructs 3D scenes from unposed images by treating reconstruction as a sparse 3D query inference problem. It learns a compact set of 3D anchor points that serve as explicit geometric queries, allowing the network to infer scene structure—including occluded geometry—in a single forward pass. By encoding spatial and appearance priors directly in global 3D space and using a decoupled cross‑attention design, UniQueR achieves strong geometric expressiveness while reducing memory and computational cost, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art feedforward methods on Mip‑NeRF 360 and VR‑NeRF with far fewer primitives.

CompactSplat: Spatially Adaptive Gaussian Distribution for Feedforward Scene Reconstruction

CompactSplat introduces a feedforward scene reconstruction method that adaptively allocates 3D Gaussian primitives based on texture-guided spatial partitioning and hierarchical sampling. By concentrating dense Gaussians in complex regions and using expanded primitives for flat areas, it reduces redundancy and better captures planar geometry. The framework also allows dynamic sparsity control during inference, enabling trade-offs between rendering quality and memory usage without retraining.

Anchor3DGS: Feed-Forward 3D Gaussian Splatting with Compact Anchor-Based Representation

Anchor3DGS introduces a pose‑free, feed‑forward 3D Gaussian Splatting framework that replaces pixel‑aligned Gaussian prediction with a compact anchor‑based representation. By placing 3D anchors guided by information entropy, the method concentrates primitives in visually complex regions while ensuring broad spatial coverage, and each anchor aggregates multi‑view features to generate local Gaussians. A lightweight feature enhancement module refines the coarse RGB output, resulting in state‑of‑the‑art novel view synthesis quality with an order of magnitude fewer Gaussian primitives than prior approaches.

Spackle: Completing Large View Single Image NVS with Adaptive Gaussians

Spackle is a lightweight residual learning framework designed to improve large-view single-image novel view synthesis (NVS) by mitigating capacity competition in hybrid decoupled systems that combine 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) and diffusion models. It operates in three stages: predicting base 3DGS attributes, automatically identifying poorly reconstructed regions, and learning a residual 3DGS focused on those areas. During inference, Spackle merges the baseline and augmented Gaussians to produce high-fidelity novel views, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on large-view-deviation cases.
