SceNeRFlow: Time-Consistent Reconstruction of General Dynamic Scenes abs: paper page: Existing methods for the 4D reconstruction of general, non-rigidly deforming objects focus on novel-view synthesis and neglect correspondences. However, time consistency enables advanced downstream tasks like 3D editing, motion analysis, or virtual-asset creation. We propose SceNeRFlow to reconstruct a general, non-rigid scene in a time-consistent manner. Our dynamic-NeRF method takes multi-view RGB videos and background images from static cameras with known camera parameters as input. It then reconstructs the deformations of an estimated canonical model of the geometry and appearance in an online fashion. Since this canonical model is time-invariant, we obtain correspondences even for long-term, long-range motions. We employ neural scene representations to parametrize the components of our method. Like prior dynamic-NeRF methods, we use a backwards deformation model. We find non-trivial adaptations of this model necessary to handle larger motions: We decompose the deformations into a strongly regularized coarse component and a weakly regularized fine component, where the coarse component also extends the deformation field into the space surrounding the object, which enables tracking over time. We show experimentally that, unlike prior work that only handles small motion, our method enables the reconstruction of studio-scale motions.

📢📢GenRecon: Bridging Generative Priors for Multi-View 3D Scene Reconstruction📢📢 Reconstructing high-fidelity 3D scenes from sparse RGB input is hard. It needs a strong 3D prior! We reformulate multi-view scene reconstruction as conditional 3D generation over overlapping spatial chunks, lifting posed image features into a generative shape prior via 3D conditioning. As an example prior, we build on Trellis2, and train it such that its reconstruction is pixel aligned and matches from all views. GenRecon achieves unprecedented reconstruction quality from any sparse RGB input sequence, even from a phone capture. The reconstruction also includes PBR materials which facilitates relighting and virtual object insertion. Amazing work by Katharina Schmid, Nicolas von Lützow, Jozef, Angela Dai

Tracking Everything Everywhere All at Once paper page: present a new test-time optimization method for estimating dense and long-range motion from a video sequence. Prior optical flow or particle video tracking algorithms typically operate within limited temporal windows, struggling to track through occlusions and maintain global consistency of estimated motion trajectories. We propose a complete and globally consistent motion representation, dubbed OmniMotion, that allows for accurate, full-length motion estimation of every pixel in a video. OmniMotion represents a video using a quasi-3D canonical volume and performs pixel-wise tracking via bijections between local and canonical space. This representation allows us to ensure global consistency, track through occlusions, and model any combination of camera and object motion. Extensive evaluations on the TAP-Vid benchmark and real-world footage show that our approach outperforms prior state-of-the-art methods by a large margin both quantitatively and qualitatively.

This seemingly obvious prediction didn't take long to become reality. MASt3R-SLAM: Real-Time Dense SLAM with 3D Reconstruction Priors Contributions: • The first real-time SLAM system using the two-view 3D reconstruction prior MASt3R [20] as a foundation. • Efficient techniques for pointmap matching, tracking and local fusion, graph construction and loop closure, and second-order global optimization. • A state-of-the-art dense SLAM system capable of handling generic, time-varying camera models. Abstract: We present a real-time monocular dense SLAM system, designed from the ground up using MASt3R, a two-view 3D reconstruction and matching prior. Equipped with this strong prior, our system remains robust on in-the-wild video sequences, making no assumptions on a fixed or parametric camera model beyond a unique camera center. Key features include: - Efficient methods for pointmap matching, camera tracking, and local fusion - Graph construction and loop closure - Second-order global optimization With known calibration, a simple modification achieves state-of-the-art performance across various benchmarks. Altogether, we propose a plug-and-play monocular SLAM system capable of producing globally-consistent poses and dense geometry while operating at 15 FPS.

4DGT: Learning a 4D Gaussian Transformer Using Real-World Monocular Videos Abstract: We propose 4DGT, a 4D Gaussian-based Transformer model for dynamic scene reconstruction, trained entirely on real-world monocular posed videos. Using 4D Gaussian as an inductive bias, 4DGT unifies static and dynamic components, enabling the modeling of complex, time-varying environments with varying object lifespans. We introduced a novel density control strategy in training, which allows our 4DGT to handle longer space-time input while maintaining efficient rendering at runtime. Our model processes 64 consecutive posed frames in a rolling-window fashion, predicting consistent 4D Gaussians in the scene. Unlike optimization-based methods, 4DGT performs purely feed-forward inference, reducing reconstruction time from hours to seconds and scaling effectively to long video sequences. Trained only on large-scale monocular posed video datasets, 4DGT can significantly outperform prior Gaussian-based networks in real-world videos and achieve on-par accuracy with optimization-based methods on cross-domain videos.

HOLY SHIT! Sparc 3D is INSANE! All they need to do now is enable PBR texture support, object separation and decimation and this in my opinion completely replaces photogrammetry. The quality of the reconstruction of these 3D objects from a single image is mind blowing to me. Yes, the model is insanely dense to allow all of this detail but the fact that AI can generate with this level of fidelity is CRAZY!!! You can try it for free on Huggingface

📢📢 𝐀𝐯𝐚𝐭𝟑𝐫 📢📢 Avat3r creates high-quality 3D head avatars from just a few input images in a single forward pass with a new dynamic 3DGS reconstruction model. Video: Project: Our core idea is to make Gaussian Reconstruction Models animatable. We find that a simple cross-attention to an expression code sequence is already sufficient to model complex facial expressions. We then incorporate position maps from DUSt3R and feature maps from Sapiens to facilitate the prediction task. While DUSt3R's position maps act as a pixel-aligned initialization for the Gaussians' positions, the Sapiens feature maps help the cross-view transformer to match corresponding image tokens in the 4 input images. One major challenge in creating a 3D head avatar from smartphone images comes from inconsistent facial expressions when the subject could not remain perfectly static during the capture. We eliminate this static requirement by simply showing our model input images with different facial expressions during training. This technique makes our model robust to inconsistent input images later on. Finally, we show that despite the model has been trained with 4 input images, one can even create a 3D head avatar when only a single image is available. To achieve this, we employ a pre-trained 3D GAN to lift the single image to 3D and then render the 4 input images for our model. This allows us to create 3D head avatars from single images and even highly out-of-distribution examples like AI generated faces, paintings or statues.

Wow. Recreating the Shawshank Redemption prison in 3D from a single video, in real time (!) Just read the MASt3R-SLAM paper and it's pretty neat. These folks basically built a real-time dense SLAM system on top of MASt3R, which is a transformer-based neural network that can do 3d reconstruction and localization from uncalibrated image pairs. The cool part is they don't need a fixed camera model -- it just works with arbitrary cameras -- think different focal lengths, sensor sizes, even handling zooming in video (FMV drone video anyone?!). If you've done photogrammetry or played with NeRFs you know that is a HUGE deal. They've solved some tricky problems like efficient point matching and tracking, plus they've figured out how to fuse point clouds and handle loop closures in real-time. Their system runs at about 15 FPS on a 4090 and produces both camera poses and dense geometry. When they know the camera calibration, they get SOTA results across several benchmarks, but even without calibration, they still perform well. What's interesting is the approach -- most recent SLAM work has built on DROID-SLAM's architecture, but these folks went a different direction by leveraging a strong 3D reconstruction prior. Seems to give them more coherent geometry, which makes sense since that's what MASt3R was designed for. For anyone who cares about monocular SLAM and 3D reconstruction, this feels like a significant step toward plug-and-play dense SLAM without calibration headaches -- perfect for drones, robots, AR/VR -- the works!

Spatio-Temporal Reconstruction Model for Large-Scale Outdoor Scenes Contributions: • We propose STORM, the first feed-forward, self-supervised method for fast and accurate reconstruction of dynamic 3D scenes from sparse, multi-timestep, posed camera images. • Our bottom-up framework aggregates and transforms per-frame 3D Gaussian Splats into a cohesive scene representation, enabling self-supervised motion estimation. Furthermore, we introduce motion tokens that capture common motion primitives and regularize motion predictions, facilitating dynamic motion group segmentation without explicit motion or correspondence supervision. • We present several enhancements for in-the-wild scenarios, including sky modeling, camera exposure inconsistency handling, large novel-view extrapolation, and fine-grained human motions reconstruction, making STORM well-suited for real-world applications.
