SymTRELLIS: Symmetry-Enforced Voxel Latents for 3D Generation

Autoregressive multimodal large language models (MLLMs) enable 3D generation but struggle to scale to high-resolution shapes due to inadequate 3D tokenizations. Compact set-based representations discard deterministic spatial ordering, leading to ambiguous sequence prediction, while uniform or octree-based voxel grids preserve ordering at the cost of severe redundancy and excessively long sequences. This structural trade-off limits stable and efficient autoregressive 3D generation. We present SuperVoxelGPT, a representation-first framework that resolves this tension through adaptive and deterministically ordered supervoxel tokenization. Given a prompt, we first predict a coarse geometric saliency distribution and construct a shape-adaptive supervoxel partition using saliency-guided centroidal Voronoi tessellation, allocating fine-grained cells to complex regions and larger cells to smooth regions. Conditioned on this prompt and ordered supervoxel layout, we introduce a SuperVoxelVAE and fine-tune a pretrained MLLM to autoregressively generate supervoxel tokens. Experiments using Trellis-500K data show that SuperVoxelGPT reduces token sequence length to 12.8% of uniform voxel tokenization while achieving state-of-the-art generation quality and an average 10x speedup over prior methods.

Generative modeling of physical systems, such as molecules, requires learning distributions that are invariant under global symmetries, such as rotations in three-dimensional space. Equivariant diffusion and flow matching models can incorporate such invariances effectively, even when trained on a non-invariant empirical distribution, but they typically rely on costly multi-step sampling. Recently, drifting models have emerged as an efficient alternative, enabling single-step generation and achieving state-of-the-art performance in generative modeling tasks. However, we show that drifting models face a symmetry-specific challenge, since an equivariant generator does not generally produce the same drifting field as the one obtained from the symmetrized target distribution. Addressing this issue would require expensive symmetrization of the empirical distribution. To avoid this cost, we propose SymDrift, a framework that makes the drifting field itself symmetry-aware. We introduce two complementary strategies: (i) a symmetrized drift in coordinate space based on optimal alignment, and (ii) a $G$-invariant embedding that removes symmetry ambiguity by construction. Empirically, SymDrift outperforms existing one-shot methods on standard benchmarks for conformer and transition state generation, while remaining competitive with significantly more expensive multi-step approaches. By enabling one-shot inference, SymDrift reduces computational overhead by up to 40$\times$ compared to existing baselines, making it promising for high-throughput applications such as virtual drug screening and large-scale reaction network exploration.

Sparse voxel representation has emerged as a scalable foundation for image-to-3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) generation, yet current methods struggle to preserve high-frequency visual details of input images due to two structural bottlenecks. First, they adopt discriminative 2D features optimized for semantic abstraction to construct sparse voxel latents, which suppress reconstructive cues and induce a representation bottleneck. Second, in the generation stage, standard diffusion transformers lack effective mechanisms to align dense 2D image tokens with sparse 3D voxel latents, resulting in a cross-modal correspondence bottleneck. To address these issues, we propose FLUX3D, a scalable image-to-3DGS framework that boosts both representation learning and cross-modal alignment during generation. We first revisit 2D feature selection for sparse-voxel-based 3D representation learning, propose Diffusion-Aligned Structured Latents (DA-SLAT) and couple it with a decoder-only architecture to improve 3DGS reconstruction fidelity. We also design a sparse-structure-aware diffusion framework, which integrates the Sparse-structure Multimodal Diffusion Transformer (SMDiT) and Modal-Aware Rotary Positional Embedding (MARoPE) to achieve geometry-agnostic 2D-3D alignment. Extensive benchmark experiments demonstrate that FLUX3D yields substantial improvements in appearance fidelity and significantly outperforms all state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods in generating high-quality 3DGS assets.
