3D Scene Completion

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has revolutionized high-fidelity neural rendering with its explicit representation and efficiency. However, reconstructing scenes from sparse viewpoints suffers from severe geometric voids and floaters due to limited coverage. Current scene completion methods typically rely on an iterative "Repair-then-Distill" paradigm, which is computationally intensive, prone to unstable optimization, and susceptible to overfitting. To address these limitations, we propose GSCompleter, a distillation-free plugin that shifts scene completion to a stable "Generate-then-Register" workflow. Specifically, GSCompleter synthesizes visually plausible 2D reference images and explicitly lifts them into 3D Gaussian primitives with a consistent metric scale via a robust Stereo-Anchor View Selection mechanism. These newly generated primitives are then seamlessly integrated into the global scene using a novel Ray-Constrained Registration strategy. By replacing unstable distillation with rapid geometric registration, GSCompleter exhibits superior 3DGS completion performance across three benchmarks, enhancing both quality and efficiency over various baselines and achieving new state-of-the-art (SOTA) results.

Monocular Semantic Scene Completion (SSC) aims to reconstruct complete 3D semantic scenes from a single RGB image, offering a cost-effective solution for autonomous driving and robotics. However, the inherently imbalanced nature of voxel distributions, where over 93% of voxels are empty and foreground classes are rare, poses significant challenges. Existing methods often suffer from redundant emphasis on uninformative voxels and poor generalization to long-tailed categories. To address these issues, we propose VoxSAMNet (Voxel Sparsity-Aware Modulation Network), a unified framework that explicitly models voxel sparsity and semantic imbalance. Our approach introduces: (1) a Dummy Shortcut for Feature Refinement (DSFR) module that bypasses empty voxels via a shared dummy node while refining occupied ones with deformable attention; and (2) a Foreground Modulation Strategy combining Foreground Dropout (FD) and Text-Guided Image Filter (TGIF) to alleviate overfitting and enhance class-relevant features. Extensive experiments on the public benchmarks SemanticKITTI and SSCBench-KITTI-360 demonstrate that VoxSAMNet achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing prior monocular and stereo baselines with mIoU scores of 18.2% and 20.2%, respectively. Our results highlight the importance of sparsity-aware and semantics-guided design for efficient and accurate 3D scene completion, offering a promising direction for future research.

Compositional 3D scene generation from a single view requires the simultaneous recovery of scene layout and 3D assets. Existing approaches mainly fall into two categories: feed-forward generation methods and per-instance generation methods. The former directly predict 3D assets with explicit 6DoF poses through efficient network inference, but they generalize poorly to complex scenes. The latter improve generalization through a divide-and-conquer strategy, but suffer from time-consuming pose optimization. To bridge this gap, we introduce 3D-Fixer, a novel in-place completion paradigm. Specifically, 3D-Fixer extends 3D object generative priors to generate complete 3D assets conditioned on the partially visible point cloud at the original locations, which are cropped from the fragmented geometry obtained from the geometry estimation methods. Unlike prior works that require explicit pose alignment, 3D-Fixer uses fragmented geometry as a spatial anchor to preserve layout fidelity. At its core, we propose a coarse-to-fine generation scheme to resolve boundary ambiguity under occlusion, supported by a dual-branch conditioning network and an Occlusion-Robust Feature Alignment (ORFA) strategy for stable training. Furthermore, to address the data scarcity bottleneck, we present ARSG-110K, the largest scene-level dataset to date, comprising over 110K diverse scenes and 3M annotated images with high-fidelity 3D ground truth. Extensive experiments show that 3D-Fixer achieves state-of-the-art geometric accuracy, which significantly outperforms baselines such as MIDI and Gen3DSR, while maintaining the efficiency of the diffusion process. Code and data will be publicly available at https://zx-yin.github.io/3dfixer.

In this paper, we propose Extend3D, a training-free pipeline for 3D scene generation from a single image, built upon an object-centric 3D generative model. To overcome the limitations of fixed-size latent spaces in object-centric models for representing wide scenes, we extend the latent space in the $x$ and $y$ directions. Then, by dividing the extended latent space into overlapping patches, we apply the object-centric 3D generative model to each patch and couple them at each time step. Since patch-wise 3D generation with image conditioning requires strict spatial alignment between image and latent patches, we initialize the scene using a point cloud prior from a monocular depth estimator and iteratively refine occluded regions through SDEdit. We discovered that treating the incompleteness of 3D structure as noise during 3D refinement enables 3D completion via a concept, which we term under-noising. Furthermore, to address the sub-optimality of object-centric models for sub-scene generation, we optimize the extended latent during denoising, ensuring that the denoising trajectories remain consistent with the sub-scene dynamics. To this end, we introduce 3D-aware optimization objectives for improved geometric structure and texture fidelity. We demonstrate that our method yields better results than prior methods, as evidenced by human preference and quantitative experiments.

We present Seen2Scene, the first flow matching-based approach that trains directly on incomplete, real-world 3D scans for scene completion and generation. Unlike prior methods that rely on complete and hence synthetic 3D data, our approach introduces visibility-guided flow matching, which explicitly masks out unknown regions in real scans, enabling effective learning from real-world, partial observations. We represent 3D scenes using truncated signed distance field (TSDF) volumes encoded in sparse grids and employ a sparse transformer to efficiently model complex scene structures while masking unknown regions. We employ 3D layout boxes as an input conditioning signal, and our approach is flexibly adapted to various other inputs such as text or partial scans. By learning directly from real-world, incomplete 3D scans, Seen2Scene enables realistic 3D scene completion for complex, cluttered real environments. Experiments demonstrate that our model produces coherent, complete, and realistic 3D scenes, outperforming baselines in completion accuracy and generation quality.

Indoor monocular semantic scene completion (MSSC) is notably more challenging than its outdoor counterpart due to complex spatial layouts and severe occlusions. While transformers are well suited for modeling global dependencies, their high memory cost and difficulty in reconstructing fine-grained details have limited their use in indoor MSSC. To address these limitations, we introduce AdaSFormer, a serialized transformer framework tailored for indoor MSSC. Our model features three key designs: (1) an Adaptive Serialized Transformer with learnable shifts that dynamically adjust receptive fields; (2) a Center-Relative Positional Encoding that captures spatial information richness; and (3) a Convolution-Modulated Layer Normalization that bridges heterogeneous representations between convolutional and transformer features. Extensive experiments on NYUv2 and Occ-ScanNet demonstrate that AdaSFormer achieves state-of-the-art performance. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/alanWXZ/AdaSFormer.

Relying on in-domain annotations and precise sensor-rig priors, existing 3D occupancy prediction methods are limited in both scalability and out-of-domain generalization. While recent visual geometry foundation models exhibit strong generalization capabilities, they were mainly designed for general purposes and lack one or more key ingredients required for urban occupancy prediction, namely metric prediction, geometry completion in cluttered scenes and adaptation to urban scenarios. We address this gap and present OccAny, the first unconstrained urban 3D occupancy model capable of operating on out-of-domain uncalibrated scenes to predict and complete metric occupancy coupled with segmentation features. OccAny is versatile and can predict occupancy from sequential, monocular, or surround-view images. Our contributions are three-fold: (i) we propose the first generalized 3D occupancy framework with (ii) Segmentation Forcing that improves occupancy quality while enabling mask-level prediction, and (iii) a Novel View Rendering pipeline that infers novel-view geometry to enable test-time view augmentation for geometry completion. Extensive experiments demonstrate that OccAny outperforms all visual geometry baselines on 3D occupancy prediction task, while remaining competitive with in-domain self-supervised methods across three input settings on two established urban occupancy prediction datasets. Our code is available at https://github.com/valeoai/OccAny .

We present GaussianSSC, a two-stage, grid-native and triplane-guided approach to semantic scene completion (SSC) that injects the benefits of Gaussians without replacing the voxel grid or maintaining a separate Gaussian set. We introduce Gaussian Anchoring, a sub-pixel, Gaussian-weighted image aggregation over fused FPN features that tightens voxel--image alignment and improves monocular occupancy estimation. We further convert point-like voxel features into a learned per-voxel Gaussian field and refine triplane features via a triplane-aligned Gaussian--Triplane Refinement module that combines local gathering (target-centric) and global aggregation (source-centric). This directional, anisotropic support captures surface tangency, scale, and occlusion-aware asymmetry while preserving the efficiency of triplane representations. On SemanticKITTI~\cite{behley2019semantickitti}, GaussianSSC improves Stage1 occupancy by +1.0% Recall, +2.0% Precision, and +1.8% IoU over state-of-the-art baselines, and improves Stage2 semantic prediction by +1.8% IoU and +0.8% mIoU.

Human perceive the 3D world through 2D observations from limited viewpoints. While recent feed-forward generalizable 3D reconstruction models excel at recovering 3D structures from sparse images, their representations are often confined to observed regions, leaving unseen geometry un-modeled. This raises a key, fundamental challenge: Can we infer a complete 3D structure from partial 2D observations? We present RnG (Reconstruction and Generation), a novel feed-forward Transformer that unifies these two tasks by predicting an implicit, complete 3D representation. At the core of RnG, we propose a reconstruction-guided causal attention mechanism that separates reconstruction and generation at the attention level, and treats the KV-cache as an implicit 3D representation. Then, arbitrary poses can efficiently query this cache to render high-fidelity, novel-view RGBD outputs. As a result, RnG not only accurately reconstructs visible geometry but also generates plausible, coherent unseen geometry and appearance. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance in both generalizable 3D reconstruction and novel view generation, while operating efficiently enough for real-time interactive applications.

Per-scene optimization methods such as 3D Gaussian Splatting provide state-of-the-art novel view synthesis quality but extrapolate poorly to under-observed areas. Methods that leverage generative priors to correct artifacts in these areas hold promise but currently suffer from two shortcomings. The first is scalability, as existing methods use image diffusion models or bidirectional video models that are limited in the number of views they can generate in a single pass (and thus require a costly iterative distillation process for consistency). The second is quality itself, as generators used in prior work tend to produce outputs that are inconsistent with existing scene content and fail entirely in completely unobserved regions. To solve these, we propose a two-stage pipeline that leverages two key insights. First, we train a powerful bidirectional generative model with a novel opacity mixing strategy that encourages consistency with existing observations while retaining the model's ability to extrapolate novel content in unseen areas. Second, we distill it into a causal auto-regressive model that generates hundreds of frames in a single pass. This model can directly produce novel views or serve as pseudo-supervision to improve the underlying 3D representation in a simple and highly efficient manner. We evaluate our method extensively and demonstrate that it can generate plausible reconstructions in scenarios where existing approaches fail completely. When measured on commonly benchmarked datasets, we outperform all existing baselines by a wide margin, exceeding prior state-of-the-art methods by 1-3 dB PSNR.

Independent indoor mobility remains a critical challenge for individuals with visual impairments, largely due to the limited capability of existing assistive systems in detecting fine-grained hazardous objects such as chairs, tables, and small obstacles. These perceptual blind zones substantially increase the risk of collision in unfamiliar environments. To bridge the gap between monocular 3D vision research and practical assistive deployment, this paper proposes an Adaptive Multi-scale Attention Aggregation (AMAA) framework for monocular 3D semantic scene completion using only a wearable RGB camera. The proposed framework addresses two major limitations in 2D-to-3D feature lifting: noise diffusion during back-projection and structural instability in multi-scale fusion. A parallel channel--spatial attention mechanism is introduced to recalibrate lifted features along semantic and geometric dimensions, while a hierarchical adaptive gating strategy regulates cross-scale information flow to preserve fine-grained structural details. Experiments on the NYUv2 benchmark demonstrate that AMAA achieves an overall mIoU of 27.88%. Crucially, it yields significant relative improvements of 16.9% for small objects and 10.4% for tables over the MonoScene baseline. Furthermore, a wearable prototype based on an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX and a ZED~2i camera validates stable real-time performance in indoor environments, demonstrating the feasibility of deploying monocular 3D scene completion for assistive navigation.
