IVGT: Implicit Visual Geometry Transformer for Neural Scene Representation

Reconstructing coherent 3D geometry and appearance from unposed multi-view images is a fundamental yet challenging problem in computer vision. Most existing visual geometry foundation models predict explicit geometry by regressing pixel-aligned pointmaps, often suffering from redundancy and limited geometric continuity. We propose IVGT, an Implicit Visual Geometry Transformer that implicitly models continuous and coherent geometry from pose-free multi-view images. This formulation learns a continuous neural scene representation in a canonical coordinate system and supports continuous spatial queries at any 3D positions, retrieving local features to predict signed distance (SDF) values and colors using lightweight decoders. It allows direct extraction of continuous and coherent surface geometry, enabling rendering of RGB images, depth maps, and surface normal maps from arbitrary viewpoints. We train IVGT via multi-dataset joint optimization with 2D supervision and 3D geometric regularization. IVGT demonstrates generalization across scenes and achieves strong performance on various tasks, including mesh and point cloud reconstruction, novel view synthesis, depth and surface normal estimation, and camera pose estimation.

Proxy3D: Efficient 3D Representations for Vision-Language Models via Semantic Clustering and Alignment

Spatial intelligence in vision-language models (VLMs) attracts research interest with the practical demand to reason in the 3D world.Despite promising results, most existing methods follow the conventional 2D pipeline in VLMs and use pixel-aligned representations for the vision modality. However, correspondence-based models with implicit 3D scene understanding often fail to achieve spatial consistency, and representation-based models with 3D geometric priors lack efficiency in vision sequence serialization. To address this, we propose a Proxy3D method with compact yet comprehensive 3D proxy representations for the vision modality. Given only video frames as input, we employ semantic and geometric encoders to extract scene features and then perform their semantic-aware clustering to obtain a set of proxies in the 3D space. For representation alignment, we further curate the SpaceSpan dataset and apply multi-stage training to adopt the proposed 3D proxy representations with the VLM. When using shorter sequences for vision information, our method achieves competitive or state-of-the-art performance in 3D visual question answering, visual grounding and general spatial intelligence benchmarks.

VoxAfford: Multi-Scale Voxel-Token Fusion for Open-Vocabulary 3D Affordance Detection

Open-vocabulary 3D affordance detection requires localizing interaction regions on point clouds given novel affordance descriptions. Recent methods extend multimodal large language models (MLLMs) with special output tokens that are decoded into segmentation masks. However, these tokens are produced through autoregressive generation, which models sequential dependencies rather than spatial neighborhood relations, leaving them semantically rich but spatially impoverished for 3D localization. We propose Voxel-enhanced Affordance detection (VoxAfford), which bypasses this bottleneck by injecting multi-scale geometric features from a frozen pre-trained 3D VQVAE encoder into the output tokens after generation. Each output token uses its affordance semantics as a query to retrieve relevant geometric patterns from its paired voxel scale via cross-attention, with a learned compatibility gate controlling the injection strength. The enhanced tokens are then aggregated into a spatially-aware affordance prompt through semantic-conditioned attention and propagated alongside per-point features to generate the final mask. Experiments on open-vocabulary affordance detection tasks show that VoxAfford achieves state-of-the-art performance with approximately an 8% improvement in mIoU, and real robot experiments confirm zero-shot transfer to novel objects.
