Fill My Mirror: Geometry-Constrained Mirror Inpainting

Recent advances in video diffusion models (VDMs) have enabled high-fidelity video synthesis. However, generating mirror reflections remains challenging because the content within a mirror must remain consistent with the surrounding scene. Existing VDMs are not specifically designed to model scene-to-mirror relationships, which can lead to reflections with incorrect content or inconsistent spatial arrangements. We observe that mirror reflection generation involves two complementary challenges: determining what scene content should be reflected and how the reflected content should be spatially arranged within the mirror region. Motivated by this observation, we propose MirrorWorld, a reflection-aware video inpainting framework that models scene-to-mirror relationships during generation. Specifically, we introduce Semantic Relation Distillation (SRD), which transfers relational information from a frozen visual foundation model to encourage semantic associations between visible scene content and mirror regions. We further propose Geometric Transformation Alignment (GTA), which learns a transformation that guides the spatial arrangement of reflected content. The two components play complementary roles, with SRD modeling what should be reflected and GTA modeling how it should be arranged. To facilitate research on this problem, we construct a benchmark for video mirror reflection generation by repurposing four existing video mirror datasets into a unified reflection reconstruction task. Experimental results show that MirrorWorld achieves improved reflection reconstruction quality over representative image-based reflection generation methods and strong video inpainting baselines.

Synthesizing physically accurate mirror reflections remains a fundamental challenge for modern text-to-image diffusion models, which are increasingly critical for generating synthetic training data for embodied AI and robotic perception. These models typically struggle with strict geometric constraints, leading to hallucinations that degrade the utility of the synthetic data. To address this, we introduce a novel, end-to-end physics-aware generation framework namely PhysMirror that natively enforces projective geometry through explicit 3D spatial priors. Our method automatically lifts prompted objects into 3D meshes and constructs a lightweight, mathematically exact mirror scene within a simulated environment. By rendering this explicit 3D scene, we extract precise 2D conditioning elements, such as depth maps and segmentation maps, that serve as robust guiding signals for downstream diffusion models, guiding them to generate images with physically correct mirror reflections. Moreover, we introduce Mirror Consistency Score (MCS), reference-free, fully automated metric that quantifies physical correctness using dense feature matching and vanishing point convergence. Experimental results on our newly constructed MirrOB dataset demonstrate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in reflection accuracy and physical realism, while maintaining strong text-to-image semantic alignment, providing a reliable pipeline for embodied AI data generation.

Previous works that leverage video models for image-to-3D scene generation often suffer from geometric distortions and blurry content. Using video generation models to implicitly maintain geometric consistency according to a single-frame input is ineffective. In this paper, we present a two-stage method, named $\textbf{GeoWorld}$, that renovates the image-to-3D scene generation pipeline by providing full-frame geometry features. The first-stage video generation model, followed by a multi-view geometry model, produces $\textbf{full-frame}$ geometry features, which are then used as a mental draft of geometric conditions to aid the second-stage video-generation model. A geometric loss is proposed to impose real-world geometric constraints, and a geometry adaptation module is introduced to ensure the effective utilization of geometry features. Thanks to full-frame geometric modeling, the two smaller video models in our two-stage method can generate higher-fidelity 3D scenes than SOTA methods, while being even faster, e.g. 7.5$\times$ faster than Hunyuan-Voyager.
