| Medium | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Medium Difficulty Summary Recently, advancements in 3D generative models have been made using large reconstruction models and extensive 3D datasets with triplane geometry representation. However, effectively utilizing triplane priors while minimizing generated multi-view image artifacts remains a challenge. This work presents Freeplane, a simple yet effective method to improve feed-forward model generation quality without additional training. By analyzing the role of triplanes in feed-forward methods, we find that inconsistent multi-view images introduce high-frequency artifacts on triplanes, leading to low-quality 3D meshes. To address this issue, we propose strategically filtering triplane features and combining them before and after filtering to produce high-quality textured meshes. Our method incurs no additional cost and can be seamlessly integrated into pre-trained feed-forward models to enhance their robustness against multi-view image inconsistency. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate that our Freeplane method improves the performance of feed-forward models by modulating triplanes during inference. |
| Low | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Low Difficulty Summary Imagine taking a 2D picture and turning it into a 3D object, like a toy or a building. This is a hard task that requires understanding how things look in the world. Recently, computers have gotten better at doing this with the help of special models called feed-forward 3D generative models. However, these models sometimes produce objects that are not realistic and have problems. This paper introduces Freeplane, a way to improve the quality of generated objects by fixing some issues with the way they are created. By looking at how things work in computer vision, we found that one problem is that generated images can be inconsistent and make it hard for models to create good 3D objects. Our solution is to filter out bad information from these images and combine them in a way that produces better results. This method does not require any extra training or effort and can be used with existing computer vision systems. |
