Abstract
Converting multi-view RGB observations into simulation-ready 3D environments remains challenging because current reconstruction pipelines produce monolithic scene representations without explicit physical structure. They are typically defined up to an arbitrary global rotation and entangle rigid foreground objects with background geometry, which hinders stable physical interaction. Existing solutions often recover interactivity by replacing reconstructed objects with retrieved CAD assets, but this introduces a slow retrieval-and-replacement stage and weakens scene-specific geometric fidelity. We propose GARDEN, an RGB-only framework that reformulates reconstruction as physically-grounded scene factorization and outputs a structured hybrid scene representation. The key idea is to use gravity as a universal physical prior: we first align the reconstruction to a unified Gravity-View frame to resolve gauge ambiguity, then recover object-centric rigid meshes with accurate 6-DoF placement, and finally remove duplicate object geometry from the background through conditional 3D point classification. The resulting representation combines explicit rigid bodies with a decoupled background, enabling direct physics simulation while preserving visual realism. Experiments on both simulated and real multi-view scenes show that GARDEN improves object placement reliability, disentanglement quality, and rendering-simulation efficiency compared with retrieval-based baselines.

Constructing simulation-ready 3D scenes from multi-view captures is a key bottleneck for Embodied Artificial Intelligence, as downstream tasks require object-level structure, explicit inter-object relations, and physical plausibility. Existing approaches either rely on specialized capture hardware, suffer from single-view bias in object reconstruction, or yield layouts that are geometrically reasonable but physically inconsistent. We identify that the problem is not single-object reconstruction but cross-view relation fusion and physically plausible scene assembly. To address this challenge, we present ReScene, a framework that threads multi-view geometry throughout the pipeline as a unifying prior. Our method consists of two main components: HierView prioritizes reconstruction views based on semantic consistency and 3D coverage completeness, replacing the largest-mask heuristic that conflates image occupancy with object coverage; and Relation-Aware Assembly fuses multi-frame relation predictions from a vision-language model with geometric and room-shell priors into a confidence-weighted scene graph, enabling physically consistent scene assembly. ReScene sets a new state of the art across geometry, rendering, and perceptual quality on a set of ScanNet scenes, achieving a 17% reduction in Chamfer Distance and 26% in LPIPS over the strongest prior baseline, while running up to 10x faster than prior multi-view methods. Based on the reconstructed scenes, we also generate an embodied visual question answering dataset, on which fine-tuned Qwen-VL approaches the performance of strong closed-source models on several spatial reasoning tasks.
Reconstructing interactive, simulation-ready 3D scenes from a single image is a critical bottleneck for robotic manipulation. While recent single-image lifters recover plausible per-object shapes, composing them yields scenes that collapse under physical simulation due to interpenetrating, hovering, or sinking objects. Existing physics-aware methods address this strictly as a post-hoc layout correction, leaving the underlying geometric errors unresolved. To address this, we introduce SimuScene, a compositional 3D reconstruction pipeline that puts physics in the loop of shape and layout estimation. Rather than using physics merely for layout cleanup, we utilize the physics engine as a diagnostic measurement tool during the generative process itself. By diagnostically simulating reconstructed objects under gravity, we convert penetration and support failures into quantitative correction signals that drive gravity-axis stretching and amodal shape resampling. This physics-informed feedback loop mitigates accumulated reconstruction errors and produces a stable, simulation-ready compositional 3D scene. Extensive experiments demonstrate state-of-the-art performance on physical stability and geometric alignment benchmarks. We further highlight SimuScene's utility by deploying reconstructed environments in humanoid control and robot-arm manipulation tasks.
Multi-view 3D reconstruction has achieved remarkable progress with the advent of feed-forward 3D reconstruction models. However, these models are typically trained and evaluated under ideal, degradation-free imaging conditions, whereas real-world observations often contain degradations that differ significantly from such settings. Improving robustness for multi-view 3D reconstruction under degraded conditions therefore remains an important challenge. We present Geometry-Aware Representation Denoising (GARD), a novel framework that performs diffusion-based multi-view restoration directly in the feature space of a feed-forward 3D reconstruction model. This design exploits the geometry-aware feature representations of the 3D reconstructor to effectively recover accurate scene geometry. Furthermore, by employing an additional RGB image decoder, the refined representations can also be used to restore high-quality RGB images, thereby enabling the simultaneous recovery of 3D scene geometry and high-quality imagery. Comprehensive experiments on the Depth Anything 3 (DA3) benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed GARD framework.
