Abstract

Editing a 3D asset locally, modifying a target region while preserving the rest, is a fundamental requirement of native 3D editing. Existing methods enforce locality through mechanisms external to the generator, such as manual 3D masks, post-hoc voxel merging, or 2D multi-view lifting. None of them intervene where the corruption actually originates: inside the ODE sampler. For a rectified-flow generator to achieve faithful local editing, its velocity field should be strong over the target editing region while vanishing on preserved content. Yet a single velocity field can hardly satisfy both requirements simultaneously, leading to three problems: (i) identity leakage that keeps the edit signal non-zero on preserved regions; (ii) no dedicated edit-amplification channel, so strengthening the edit inevitably perturbs identity; and (iii) an identity drag at the geometry and material stages, where a global condition pulls every token toward the target. We propose VS3D (Velocity-Space 3D Asset editing}), an inversion-free, training-free, and mask-free framework that addresses each problem with a targeted intervention inside the sampler. VS3D integrates three complementary modules, each corresponding to a specific stage of the editing pipeline. Reconstruction-Anchored Source Injection (RASI) absorbs identity leakage by turning the unconditional embedding into a per-step, asset-specific anchor calibrated through source reconstruction. Partial-Mean Guidance (PMG) amplifies the edit signal by contrasting high- and low-quality subsample estimates of the velocity difference, active only where a consistent edit exists. Twin-Agreement Residual injection (TAR) lets the sampler decide token by token what to preserve at the geometry and material stages.

EditFlow3D: Automated Local Editing of 3D Assets with Trajectory Preservation

Controllable local editing of 3D assets requires precise target localization and appropriate visual guidance. However, existing methods lack a simple yet accurate way to obtain 3D masks and struggle to achieve the desired edit while faithfully preserving the structure and appearance of non-target regions. To address these challenges, we present EditFlow3D, a training-free framework for local 3D editing. Given a source asset and an edit instruction, a VLM-driven workflow interprets the editing intent and automatically constructs a visual guidance image and a refined 3D editing mask, enabling localized editing in the native representation space of a pretrained 3D generative model. Specifically, mask-guided differential flow focuses the edit on the target region, while step-wise trajectory preservation maintains consistency between non-target regions and the source asset without directly replacing intermediate features. Since the existing Edit3D-Bench covers only a limited range of local editing categories, we further introduce EditFlow-Bench as a complementary benchmark encompassing a broader variety of structural and appearance edits, and evaluate EditFlow3D on both benchmarks. Quantitative results, qualitative comparisons, and a user study demonstrate that EditFlow3D achieves more accurate target-region editing and better preserves non-target regions than existing 3D editing methods.

JointEdit3D: Feed-Forward 3D Scene Editing in a Unified Latent Space

Existing 3D scene editing methods typically rely on per-scene optimization over explicit 3D representations or cascaded edit-and-reconstruct pipelines, resulting in high test-time cost, limited 3D awareness, and structural inconsistencies. To couple appearance synthesis and geometry prediction during editing, we build on a unified RGB-geometry reconstruction-generation latent space and adapt it to feed-forward 3D scene editing. The resulting framework, \textbf{JointEdit3D}, performs asymmetric latent inpainting by observing only a single edited RGB reference latent and generating the remaining RGB views and edited geometry latent under source-scene anchoring. JointEdit3D introduces a dedicated SceneAnchor Branch to inject source-scene structure without forcing direct copying, and adopts edit/background-aware losses to balance edited-region fidelity with unedited-content preservation. To address the lack of paired resources for standardized 3D scene editing evaluation, we introduce SceneEdit3D-15K, a dataset with 15K paired editing samples and renderer-provided 3D annotations, together with SceneEdit3D-Bench, a curated 100-sample benchmark. Experiments show that JointEdit3D improves edited-region quality and 3D structural completeness over prior baselines while maintaining competitive background preservation.

EditVerse3D: High-Quality 3D Object Editing with Region-Aware Learning

Local editing of 3D objects remains a long-standing challenge. When interacting with 3D content, humans naturally tend to specify a coarse region of interest for modification rather than defining precise editing boundaries. However, previous methods rely on fully edited 2D images, precise 3D masks, or redundant pipelines, which present a gap. To bridge this gap, we propose EditVerse3D, a novel 3D editing framework that enables high-quality object editing under such coarse guidance. Our approach takes as input a 3D object to be edited, a coarse 3D bounding box indicating the target region, and a reference 2D image describing the desired modification. It produces a coherent, high-fidelity edited 3D object. To facilitate this editing, we introduce a novel region-aware adaptive loss that emphasizes hard-to-learn regions and balances the objective between target and preserved areas. Complementing our loss function, we enhance model robustness and generalization through targeted data augmentations, such as training with scaled 3D masks and filtering out unrealistic editing pairs. We construct a large-scale 3D editing dataset derived from parts information. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EditVerse3D achieves superior visual quality and quantitative performance compared to existing 3D editing approaches.
