SpaCeFormer: Space-Curve Transformer for Open-Vocabulary 3D Instance Segmentation without Proposals

ICML 2026poster

Open-vocabulary 3D segmentation is crucial for real-world applications, yet existing methods are constrained by fragmented masks and inconsistent captions in dataset generation, and by multi-stage pipelines prone to error propagation. We present SpaCeFormer-3M, the largest open-vocabulary 3D instanc…

Fast Monocular Scene Reconstruction With Global-Sparse Local-Dense Grids

CVPR 2023poster

Indoor scene reconstruction from monocular images has long been sought after by augmented reality and robotics developers. Recent advances in neural field representations and monocular priors have led to remarkable results in scene-level surface reconstructions. The reliance on Multilayer Perceptron…

Spacetime Surface Regularization for Neural Dynamic Scene Reconstruction

ICCV 2023poster

We propose an algorithm, 4DRegSDF, for the spacetime surface regularization to improve the fidelity of neural rendering and reconstruction in dynamic scenes. The key idea is to impose local rigidity on the deformable Signed Distance Function (SDF) for temporal coherency. Our approach works by (1) sa…

VoxFormer: Sparse Voxel Transformer for Camera-Based 3D Semantic Scene Completion

CVPR 2023highlight

Humans can easily imagine the complete 3D geometry of occluded objects and scenes. This appealing ability is vital for recognition and understanding. To enable such capability in AI systems, we propose VoxFormer, a Transformer-based semantic scene completion framework that can output complete 3D vol…

ACID: Action-Conditional Implicit Visual Dynamics for Deformable Object Manipulation

RSS 2022poster

Manipulating volumetric deformable objects in the real world, like plush toys and pizza dough, bring substantial challenges due to infinite shape variations, non-rigid motions, and partial observability. We introduce ACID, an action-conditional visual dynamics model for volumetric deformable objects…

Adversarially Robust 3D Point Cloud Recognition Using Self-Supervisions

NeurIPS 2021poster

3D point cloud data is increasingly used in safety-critical applications such as autonomous driving. Thus, the robustness of 3D deep learning models against adversarial attacks becomes a major consideration. In this paper, we systematically study the impact of various self-supervised learning proxy…

DiscoBox: Weakly Supervised Instance Segmentation and Semantic Correspondence From Box Supervision

ICCV 2021poster

We introduce DiscoBox, a novel framework that jointly learns instance segmentation and semantic correspondence using bounding box supervision. Specifically, we propose a self-ensembling framework where instance segmentation and semantic correspondence are jointly guided by a structured teacher in ad…

Self-Calibrating Neural Radiance Fields

ICCV 2021poster

In this work, we propose a camera self-calibration algorithm for generic cameras with arbitrary non-linear distortions. We jointly learn the geometry of the scene and the accurate camera parameters without any calibration objects. Our camera model consists of a pinhole model, a fourth order radial d…

Generative Sparse Detection Networks for 3D Single-shot Object Detection

ECCV 2020poster

3D object detection has been widely studied due to its potential applicability to many promising areas such as robotics and augmented reality. Yet, the sparse nature of the 3D data poses unique challenges to this task. Most notably, the observable surface of the 3D point clouds is disjoint from the…

High-Dimensional Convolutional Networks for Geometric Pattern Recognition

CVPR 2020oral

High-dimensional geometric patterns appear in many computer vision problems. In this work, we present high-dimensional convolutional networks for geometric pattern recognition problems that arise in 2D and 3D registration problems. We first propose high-dimensional convolutional networks from 4 to 3…

SceneCAD: Predicting Object Alignments and Layouts in RGB-D Scans

ECCV 2020poster

We present a novel approach to reconstructing lightweight, CAD-based representations of scanned 3D environments from commodity RGB-D sensors. Our key idea is to jointly optimize for both CAD model alignments as well as layout estimations of the scanned scene, explicitly modeling inter-relationships…

4D Spatio-Temporal ConvNets: Minkowski Convolutional Neural Networks

CVPR 2019poster

In many robotics and VR/AR applications, 3D-videos are readily-available input sources (a sequence of depth images, or LIDAR scans). However, in many cases, the 3D-videos are processed frame-by-frame either through 2D convnets or 3D perception algorithms. In this work, we propose 4-dimensional convo…
