Spark3R: Asymmetric Token Reduction Makes Fast Feed-Forward 3D Reconstruction

Feed-forward 3D reconstruction models based on Vision Transformers can directly estimate scene geometry and camera poses from a small set of input images, but scaling them to video inputs with hundreds or thousands of frames remains challenging due to the quadratic cost of global attention layers. Recent token-merging methods accelerate these models by compressing the token sequence within the global attention layers, but they apply a uniform reduction to query tokens and key-value tokens, ignoring their functionally distinct roles in 3D reconstruction. In this work, we identify a key property of feed-forward 3D reconstruction models: query tokens encode view-specific geometric requests and are sensitive to compression, while key-value tokens represent shared scene context and tolerate aggressive compression. Guided by this insight, we propose Spark3R, a training-free acceleration framework that decouples the compression of query tokens and key-value tokens by assigning distinct reduction factors, with intra-group token merging applied to query tokens and lightweight token pruning to key-value tokens. Additionally, Spark3R adaptively adjusts the key-value reduction factor across layers, further improving the quality-efficiency trade-off. As a plug-and-play framework requiring no retraining, Spark3R integrates directly into multiple pretrained feed-forward 3D reconstruction models, including VGGT, $π^3$, Depth-Anything-3, and VGGT-$Ω$, and achieves up to $28\times$ speedup on 1,000-frame inputs while maintaining competitive reconstruction quality.

Language-Assisted 3D Scene Understanding

The scale and quality of point cloud datasets constrain the advancement of point cloud learning. Recently, with the development of multi-modal learning, the incorporation of domain-agnostic prior knowledge from other modalities, such as images and text, to assist in point cloud feature learning has been considered a promising avenue. Existing methods have demonstrated the effectiveness of multi-modal contrastive training and feature distillation on point clouds. However, challenges remain, including the requirement for paired triplet data, redundancy and ambiguity in supervised features, and the disruption of the original priors. In this paper, we propose a language-assisted approach to point cloud feature learning (LAST-PCL), enriching semantic concepts through LLMs-based text enrichment. We achieve de-redundancy and feature dimensionality reduction without compromising textual priors by statistical-based and training-free significant feature selection. Furthermore, we also delve into an in-depth analysis of the impact of text contrastive training on the point cloud. Extensive experiments validate that the proposed method learns semantically meaningful point cloud features and achieves state-of-the-art or comparable performance in 3D semantic segmentation, 3D object detection, and 3D scene classification tasks.

CFP-SLAM: A Real-time Visual SLAM Based on Coarse-to-Fine Probability in Dynamic Environments

The dynamic factors in the environment will lead to the decline of camera localization accuracy due to the violation of the static environment assumption of SLAM algorithm. Recently, some related works generally use the combination of semantic constraints and geometric constraints to deal with dynamic objects, but problems can still be raised, such as poor real-time performance, easy to treat people as rigid bodies, and poor performance in low dynamic scenes. In this paper, a dynamic scene-oriented visual SLAM algorithm based on object detection and coarse-to-fine static probability named CFP-SLAM is proposed. The algorithm combines semantic constraints and geometric constraints to calculate the static probability of objects, keypoints and map points, and takes them as weights to participate in camera pose estimation. Extensive evaluations show that our approach can achieve almost the best results in high dynamic and low dynamic scenarios compared to the state-of-the-art dynamic SLAM methods, and shows quite high real-time ability.

Object SLAM-Based Active Mapping and Robotic Grasping

This paper presents the first active object mapping framework for complex robotic manipulation and autonomous perception tasks. The framework is built on an object SLAM system integrated with a simultaneous multi-object pose estimation process that is optimized for robotic grasping. Aiming to reduce the observation uncertainty on target objects and increase their pose estimation accuracy, we also design an object-driven exploration strategy to guide the object mapping process, enabling autonomous mapping and high-level perception. Combining the mapping module and the exploration strategy, an accurate object map that is compatible with robotic grasping can be generated. Additionally, quantitative evaluations also indicate that the proposed framework has a very high mapping accuracy. Experiments with manipulation (including object grasping and placement) and augmented reality significantly demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of our proposed framework.

EAO-SLAM: Monocular Semi-Dense Object SLAM Based on Ensemble Data Association

Object-level data association and pose estimation play a fundamental role in semantic SLAM, which remain unsolved due to the lack of robust and accurate algorithms. In this work, we propose an ensemble data associate strategy for integrating the parametric and nonparametric statistic tests. By exploiting the nature of different statistics, our method can effectively aggregate the information of different measurements, and thus significantly improve the robustness and accuracy of data association. We then present an accurate object pose estimation framework, in which an outliers-robust centroid and scale estimation algorithm and an object pose initialization algorithm are developed to help improve the optimality of pose estimation results. Furthermore, we build a SLAM system that can generate semi-dense or lightweight object-oriented maps with a monocular camera. Extensive experiments are conducted on three publicly available datasets and a real scenario. The results show that our approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art techniques in accuracy and robustness. The source code is available on: https://github.com/yanmin-wu/EAO-SLAM.
