Feature-Optimized Vision for Adaptive 3D Scene Reconstruction

Reconstruction of 3D objects from a single image is a challenging research problem in computer vision. The key challenge is the lack of critical information from viewpoints to complete 3D structures. Using an additional view may help to resolve the issue. However, there is no mechanism that can integrate the extra view into the single-view 3D reconstruction principle. We address this challenge by proposing ASV3D, a framework for adapting single-view 3D object reconstruction to test-time data with support from one additional image. We introduce two adaptation strategies: (i) a zero-shot adaptation scheme that leverages the auxiliary image to improve the reconstruction quality of an object without retraining, and (ii) an optimised adaptation scheme that further enhances visual fidelity and cross-view consistency via contrastive learning. We apply our ASV3D to improve two state-of-the-art single-view 3D reconstruction pipelines on both benchmark and real-world datasets. Results demonstrate that our approach consistently improves reconstruction accuracy and robustness under unconstrained multi-view inputs, outperforming the baselines in both quantitative metrics and human preference. We publish our code and the real-world object dataset in our project page at https://github.com/YNhuHuynh/ASV3D/tree/main.

Recent feed-forward 3D reconstruction methods, such as visual geometry transformers, have substantially advanced the traditional per-scene optimization paradigm by enabling effective multi-view reconstruction in a single forward pass. However, most existing methods struggle to achieve a balance between reconstruction quality and computational efficiency, which limits their scalability and efficiency. Although some efficient visual geometry transformers have recently emerged, they typically use the same sparsity ratio across layers and frames and lack mechanisms to adaptively learn representative tokens to capture global relationships, leading to suboptimal performance. In this work, we propose TurboVGGT, a novel approach that employs an efficient visual geometry transformer with adaptive alternating attention for fast multi-view 3D reconstruction. Specifically, TurboVGGT employs an end-to-end trainable framework with adaptive sparse global attention guided by adaptive sparsity selection to capture global relationships across frames and frame attention to aggregate local details within each frame. In the adaptive sparse global attention, TurboVGGT adaptively learns representative tokens with varying sparsity levels for global geometry modeling, considering that token importance varies across frames, attention layers operate tokens at different levels of abstraction, and global dependencies rely on structurally informative regions. Extensive experiments on multiple 3D reconstruction benchmarks demonstrate that TurboVGGT achieves fast multi-view reconstruction while maintaining competitive reconstruction quality compared with state-of-the-art methods.

The relationship between object perception and reconstruction is well established in human vision, yet remains underexplored in computer vision. In this paper, we demonstrate that learnt object perception can significantly enhance 3D reconstruction. Focusing on the challenging task of single-view 3D object reconstruction, we propose a method that leverages perceptual signals extracted from pretrained perception models capturing semantic and geometric information to drive the reconstruction of an object from its single image. Our approach is model-agnostic and can be integrated into various reconstruction methods in a plug-and-play manner. Experiments with two state-of-the-art single-view 3D reconstruction pipelines in a benchmark dataset show consistent and substantial improvements achieved by our method, validating the effectiveness of incorporating perception into generation. We provide in-depth analysis of various aspects of our method and its application. Our project page is at https://ynhuhuynh.github.io/perception-3d/.
