3D open-vocabulary scene understanding, which accurately perceives complex semantic properties of objects in space, has gained significant attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose GAGS, a framework that distills 2D CLIP features into 3D Gaussian splatting, enabling open-vocabulary queries for renderings on arbitrary viewpoints. The main challenge of distilling 2D features for 3D fields lies in the multiview inconsistency of extracted 2D features, which provides unstable supervision for the 3D feature field. GAGS addresses this challenge with two novel strategies. First, GAGS associates the prompt point density of SAM with the camera distances to scene objects, which significantly improves the multiview consistency of segmentation results. Second, GAGS further decodes a granularity factor to guide the distillation process and this granularity factor can be learned in a unsupervised manner to only select the multiview consistent 2D features in the distillation process. Experimental results on two datasets show that GAGS improves visual grounding accuracy by an average of 10.9% and semantic segmentation accuracy by an average of 7.0%, with an inference speed 2× faster than baseline methods.

In this paper, we present a 3D visual grounding method called CityAnchor for localizing an urban object in a city-scale point cloud. Recent developments in multiview reconstruction enable us to reconstruct city-scale point clouds but how to conduct visual grounding on such a large-scale urban point cloud remains an open problem. Previous 3D visual grounding system mainly concentrates on localizing an object in an image or a small-scale point cloud, which is not accurate and efficient enough to scale up to a city-scale point cloud. We address this problem with a multi-modality LLM which consists of two stages, a coarse localization and a fine-grained matching. Given the text descriptions, the coarse localization stage locates possible regions on a projected 2D map of the point cloud while the fine-grained matching stage accurately determines the most matched object in these possible regions. We conduct experiments on the CityRefer dataset and a new synthetic dataset annotated by us, both of which demonstrate our method can produce accurate 3D visual grounding on a city-scale 3D point cloud.

Matching cross-modality features between images and point clouds is a fundamental problem for image-to-point cloud registration. However, due to the modality difference between images and points, it is difficult to learn robust and discriminative cross-modality features by existing metric learning methods for feature matching. Instead of applying metric learning on cross-modality data, we propose to unify the modality between images and point clouds by pretrained large-scale models first, and then establish robust correspondence within the same modality. We show that the intermediate features, called diffusion features, extracted by depth-to-image diffusion models are semantically consistent between images and point clouds, which enables the building of coarse but robust cross-modality correspondences. We further extract geometric features on depth maps produced by the monocular depth estimator. By matching such geometric features, we significantly improve the accuracy of the coarse correspondences produced by diffusion features. Extensive experiments demonstrate that without any task-specific training, direct utilization of both features produces accurate image-to-point cloud registration. On three public indoor and outdoor benchmarks, the proposed method averagely achieves a 20.6 percent improvement in Inlier Ratio, a $3.0\times$ higher Inlier Number, and a 48.6 percent improvement in Registration Recall than existing state-of-the-arts.

KT-Net: Knowledge Transfer for Unpaired 3D Shape Completion

Unpaired 3D object completion aims to predict a complete 3D shape from an incomplete input without knowing the correspondence between the complete and incomplete shapes. In this paper, we propose the novel KTNet to solve this task from the new perspective of knowledge transfer. KTNet elaborates a teacher-assistant-student network to establish multiple knowledge transfer processes. Specifically, the teacher network takes complete shape as input and learns the knowledge of complete shape. The student network takes the incomplete one as input and restores the corresponding complete shape. And the assistant modules not only help to transfer the knowledge of complete shape from the teacher to the student, but also judge the learning effect of the student network. As a result, KTNet makes use of a more comprehensive understanding to establish the geometric correspondence between complete and incomplete shapes in a perspective of knowledge transfer, which enables more detailed geometric inference for generating high-quality complete shapes. We conduct comprehensive experiments on several datasets, and the results show that our method outperforms previous methods of unpaired point cloud completion by a large margin.
