RayMap3R: Inference-Time RayMap for Dynamic 3D Reconstruction

We propose SLARM, a feed-forward model that unifies dynamic scene reconstruction, semantic understanding, and real-time streaming inference. SLARM captures complex, non-uniform motion through higher-order motion modeling, trained solely on differentiable renderings without any flow supervision. Besides, SLARM distills semantic features from LSeg to obtain language-aligned representations. This design enables semantic querying via natural language, and the tight coupling between semantics and geometry further enhances the accuracy and robustness of dynamic reconstruction. Moreover, SLARM processes image sequences using window-based causal attention, achieving stable, low-latency streaming inference without accumulating memory cost. Within this unified framework, SLARM achieves state-of-the-art results in dynamic estimation, rendering quality, and scene parsing, improving motion accuracy by 21%, reconstruction PSNR by 1.6 dB, and segmentation mIoU by 20% over existing methods.

Online monocular 3D reconstruction enables dense scene recovery from streaming video but remains fundamentally limited by the stability-adaptation dilemma: the reconstruction model must rapidly incorporate novel viewpoints while preserving previously accumulated scene structure. Existing streaming approaches rely on uniform or attention-based update mechanisms that often fail to account for abrupt viewpoint transitions, leading to trajectory drift and geometric inconsistencies over long sequences. We introduce PAS3R, a pose-adaptive streaming reconstruction framework that dynamically modulates state updates according to camera motion and scene structure. Our key insight is that frames contributing significant geometric novelty should exert stronger influence on the reconstruction state, while frames with minor viewpoint variation should prioritize preserving historical context. PAS3R operationalizes this principle through a motion-aware update mechanism that jointly leverages inter-frame pose variation and image frequency cues to estimate frame importance. To further stabilize long-horizon reconstruction, we introduce trajectory-consistent training objectives that incorporate relative pose constraints and acceleration regularization. A lightweight online stabilization module further suppresses high-frequency trajectory jitter and geometric artifacts without increasing memory consumption. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks demonstrate that PAS3R significantly improves trajectory accuracy, depth estimation, and point cloud reconstruction quality in long video sequences while maintaining competitive performance on shorter sequences.

Dense 3D reconstruction from continuous image streams requires both accurate geometric aggregation and stable long-term memory management. Recent feed-forward reconstruction frameworks integrate observations through persistent memory representations, yet most rely primarily on appearance-based similarity when updating memory. Such appearance-driven integration often leads to redundant accumulation of observations and unstable geometry when viewpoint changes occur. In this work, we propose a ray-aware pointer memory for streaming 3D reconstruction that explicitly models both spatial location and viewing direction within a unified memory representation. Each memory pointer stores its 3D position, associated ray direction, and feature embedding, allowing the system to reason jointly about geometric proximity and viewpoint consistency. Based on this representation, we introduce an adaptive pointer update strategy that replaces traditional fusion-based memory compression with a retain-or-replace mechanism. Instead of averaging nearby observations, the system selectively retains informative pointers while discarding redundant ones, preserving distinctive geometric structures while maintaining bounded memory growth. Furthermore, the joint reasoning over spatial distance and ray-direction discrepancy enables the system to distinguish between local redundancy, novel observations, and potential loop revisits in a unified manner. When loop candidates are detected, pose refinement is triggered to enforce global geometric consistency across the reconstruction. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed ray-aware memory design significantly improves long-term reconstruction stability and camera pose accuracy while maintaining efficient streaming inference. Our approach provides a principled framework for scalable and drift-resistant online 3D reconstruction from image streams.
