The paper proposes a novel approach, XMask3D, to improve open vocabulary 3D semantic segmentation. Existing methods focus on unified feature spaces, but struggle with fine-grained boundary delineation. XMask3D uses cross-modal mask reasoning to align 3D features and 2D-text embeddings at the mask level. A denoising UNet-based mask generator is developed, leveraging pre-trained diffusion models for precise textual control over pixel representations. 3D global features are integrated as implicit conditions into a pre-trained 2D denoising UNet, enabling geometry-aware segmentation masks. The generated 2D masks align with the vision-language feature space, augmenting open vocabulary capabilities. Finally, fused 2D and 3D mask features achieve competitive performance across multiple benchmarks for 3D open vocabulary semantic segmentation.

This paper tries to improve a computer vision task called 3D semantic segmentation. Currently, methods focus on combining different types of data, but they don’t do it very well. The new approach, XMask3D, tries to match the features from different sources at a more detailed level. It uses a special type of neural network to generate masks that are more accurate and take into account 3D geometry. The results show that this approach performs better than others on several benchmarks.
