ReImagine: Rethinking Controllable High-Quality Human Video Generation via Image-First Synthesis

Human video generation remains challenging due to the difficulty of jointly modeling human appearance, motion, and camera viewpoint under limited multi-view data. Existing methods often address these factors separately, resulting in limited controllability or reduced visual quality. We revisit this problem from an image-first perspective, where high-quality human appearance is learned via image generation and used as a prior for video synthesis, decoupling appearance modeling from temporal consistency. We propose a pose- and viewpoint-controllable pipeline that combines a pretrained image backbone with SMPL-X-based motion guidance, together with a training-free temporal refinement stage based on a pretrained video diffusion model. Our method produces high-quality, temporally consistent videos under diverse poses and viewpoints. We also release a canonical human dataset and an auxiliary model for compositional human image synthesis. Code and data are publicly available at https://github.com/Taited/ReImagine.

PartNerFace: Part-based Neural Radiance Fields for Animatable Facial Avatar Reconstruction

We present PartNerFace, a part-based neural radiance fields approach, for reconstructing animatable facial avatar from monocular RGB videos. Existing solutions either simply condition the implicit network with the morphable model parameters or learn an imaginary canonical radiance field, making them fail to generalize to unseen facial expressions and capture fine-scale motion details. To address these challenges, we first apply inverse skinning based on a parametric head model to map an observed point to the canonical space, and then model fine-scale motions with a part-based deformation field. Our key insight is that the deformation of different facial parts should be modeled differently. Specifically, our part-based deformation field consists of multiple local MLPs to adaptively partition the canonical space into different parts, where the deformation of a 3D point is computed by aggregating the prediction of all local MLPs by a soft-weighting mechanism. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method generalizes well to unseen expressions and is capable of modeling fine-scale facial motions, outperforming state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.

InverseDraping: Recovering Sewing Patterns from 3D Garment Surfaces via BoxMesh Bridging

Recovering sewing patterns from draped 3D garments is a challenging problem in human digitization research. In contrast to the well-studied forward process of draping designed sewing patterns using mature physical simulation engines, the inverse process of recovering parametric 2D patterns from deformed garment geometry remains fundamentally ill-posed for existing methods. We propose a two-stage framework that centers on a structured intermediate representation, BoxMesh, which serves as the key to bridging the gap between 3D garment geometry and parametric sewing patterns. BoxMesh encodes both garment-level geometry and panel-level structure in 3D, while explicitly disentangling intrinsic panel geometry and stitching topology from draping-induced deformations. This representation imposes a physically grounded structure on the problem, significantly reducing ambiguity. In Stage I, a geometry-driven autoregressive model infers BoxMesh from the input 3D garment. In Stage II, a semantics-aware autoregressive model parses BoxMesh into parametric sewing patterns. We adopt autoregressive modeling to naturally handle the variable-length and structured nature of panel configurations and stitching relationships. This decomposition separates geometric inversion from structured pattern inference, leading to more accurate and robust recovery. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the GarmentCodeData benchmark and generalizes effectively to real-world scans and single-view images.

Omni123: Exploring 3D Native Foundation Models with Limited 3D Data by Unifying Text to 2D and 3D Generation

Recent multimodal large language models have achieved strong performance in unified text and image understanding and generation, yet extending such native capability to 3D remains challenging due to limited data. Compared to abundant 2D imagery, high-quality 3D assets are scarce, making 3D synthesis under-constrained. Existing methods often rely on indirect pipelines that edit in 2D and lift results into 3D via optimization, sacrificing geometric consistency. We present Omni123, a 3D-native foundation model that unifies text-to-2D and text-to-3D generation within a single autoregressive framework. Our key insight is that cross-modal consistency between images and 3D can serve as an implicit structural constraint. By representing text, images, and 3D as discrete tokens in a shared sequence space, the model leverages abundant 2D data as a geometric prior to improve 3D representations. We introduce an interleaved X-to-X training paradigm that coordinates diverse cross-modal tasks over heterogeneous paired datasets without requiring fully aligned text-image-3D triplets. By traversing semantic-visual-geometric cycles (e.g., text to image to 3D to image) within autoregressive sequences, the model jointly enforces semantic alignment, appearance fidelity, and multi-view geometric consistency. Experiments show that Omni123 significantly improves text-guided 3D generation and editing, demonstrating a scalable path toward multimodal 3D world models.

ARGS: Auto-Regressive Gaussian Splatting via Parallel Progressive Next-Scale Prediction

Auto-regressive frameworks for next-scale prediction of 2D images have demonstrated strong potential for producing diverse and sophisticated content by progressively refining a coarse input. However, extending this paradigm to 3D object generation remains largely unexplored. In this paper, we introduce auto-regressive Gaussian splatting (ARGS), a framework for making next-scale predictions in parallel for generation according to levels of detail. We propose a Gaussian simplification strategy and reverse the simplification to guide next-scale generation. Benefiting from the use of hierarchical trees, the generation process requires only \(\mathcal{O}(\log n)\) steps, where \(n\) is the number of points. Furthermore, we propose a tree-based transformer to predict the tree structure auto-regressively, allowing leaf nodes to attend to their internal ancestors to enhance structural consistency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach effectively generates multi-scale Gaussian representations with controllable levels of detail, visual fidelity, and a manageable time consumption budget.

Kinema4D: Kinematic 4D World Modeling for Spatiotemporal Embodied Simulation

Simulating robot-world interactions is a cornerstone of Embodied AI. Recently, a few works have shown promise in leveraging video generations to transcend the rigid visual/physical constraints of traditional simulators. However, they primarily operate in 2D space or are guided by static environmental cues, ignoring the fundamental reality that robot-world interactions are inherently 4D spatiotemporal events that require precise interactive modeling. To restore this 4D essence while ensuring the precise robot control, we introduce Kinema4D, a new action-conditioned 4D generative robotic simulator that disentangles the robot-world interaction into: i) Precise 4D representation of robot controls: we drive a URDF-based 3D robot via kinematics, producing a precise 4D robot control trajectory. ii) Generative 4D modeling of environmental reactions: we project the 4D robot trajectory into a pointmap as a spatiotemporal visual signal, controlling the generative model to synthesize complex environments' reactive dynamics into synchronized RGB/pointmap sequences. To facilitate training, we curated a large-scale dataset called Robo4D-200k, comprising 201,426 robot interaction episodes with high-quality 4D annotations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method effectively simulates physically-plausible, geometry-consistent, and embodiment-agnostic interactions that faithfully mirror diverse real-world dynamics. For the first time, it shows potential zero-shot transfer capability, providing a high-fidelity foundation for advancing next-generation embodied simulation.

EI-Part: Explode for Completion and Implode for Refinement

Part-level 3D generation is crucial for various downstream applications, including gaming, film production, and industrial design. However, decomposing a 3D shape into geometrically plausible and meaningful components remains a significant challenge. Previous part-based generation methods often struggle to produce well-constructed parts, exhibiting poor structural coherence, geometric implausibility, inaccuracy, or inefficiency. To address these challenges, we introduce EI-Part, a novel framework specifically designed to generate high-quality 3D shapes with components, characterized by strong structural coherence, geometric plausibility, geometric fidelity, and generation efficiency. We propose utilizing distinct representations at different stages: an Explode state for part completion and an Implode state for geometry refinement. This strategy fully leverages spatial resolution, enabling flexible part completion and fine geometric detail generation. To maintain structural coherence between parts, a self-attention mechanism is incorporated in both exploded and imploded states, facilitating effective information perception and feature fusion among components during generation. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that EI-Part efficiently produces semantically meaningful and structurally coherent parts with fine-grained geometric details, achieving state-of-the-art performance in part-level 3D generation.

TexSpot: 3D Texture Enhancement with Spatially-uniform Point Latent Representation

High-quality 3D texture generation remains a fundamental challenge due to the view-inconsistency inherent in current mainstream multi-view diffusion pipelines. Existing representations either rely on UV maps, which suffer from distortion during unwrapping, or point-based methods, which tightly couple texture fidelity to geometric density that limits high-resolution texture generation. To address these limitations, we introduce TexSpot, a diffusion-based texture enhancement framework. At its core is Texlet, a novel 3D texture representation that merges the geometric expressiveness of point-based 3D textures with the compactness of UV-based representation. Each Texlet latent vector encodes a local texture patch via a 2D encoder and is further aggregated using a 3D encoder to incorporate global shape context. A cascaded 3D-to-2D decoder reconstructs high-quality texture patches, enabling the Texlet space learning. Leveraging this representation, we train a diffusion transformer conditioned on Texlets to refine and enhance textures produced by multi-view diffusion methods. Extensive experiments demonstrate that TexSpot significantly improves visual fidelity, geometric consistency, and robustness over existing state-of-the-art 3D texture generation and enhancement approaches.

MotionCrafter: Dense Geometry and Motion Reconstruction with a 4D VAE

We introduce MotionCrafter, a video diffusion-based framework that jointly reconstructs 4D geometry and estimates dense motion from a monocular video. The core of our method is a novel joint representation of dense 3D point maps and 3D scene flows in a shared coordinate system, and a novel 4D VAE to effectively learn this representation. Unlike prior work that forces the 3D value and latents to align strictly with RGB VAE latents-despite their fundamentally different distributions-we show that such alignment is unnecessary and leads to suboptimal performance. Instead, we introduce a new data normalization and VAE training strategy that better transfers diffusion priors and greatly improves reconstruction quality. Extensive experiments across multiple datasets demonstrate that MotionCrafter achieves state-of-the-art performance in both geometry reconstruction and dense scene flow estimation, delivering 38.64% and 25.0% improvements in geometry and motion reconstruction, respectively, all without any post-optimization.

Condition Matters in Full-head 3D GANs

Conditioning is crucial for stable training of full-head 3D GANs. Without any conditioning signal, the model suffers from severe mode collapse, making it impractical to training. However, a series of previous full-head 3D GANs conventionally choose the view angle as the conditioning input, which leads to a bias in the learned 3D full-head space along the conditional view direction. This is evident in the significant differences in generation quality and diversity between the conditional view and non-conditional views of the generated 3D heads, resulting in global incoherence across different head regions. In this work, we propose to use view-invariant semantic feature as the conditioning input, thereby decoupling the generative capability of 3D heads from the viewing direction. To construct a view-invariant semantic condition for each training image, we create a novel synthesized head image dataset. We leverage FLUX.1 Kontext to extend existing high-quality frontal face datasets to a wide range of view angles. The image clip feature extracted from the frontal view is then used as a shared semantic condition across all views in the extended images, ensuring semantic alignment while eliminating directional bias. This also allows supervision from different views of the same subject to be consolidated under a shared semantic condition, which accelerates training and enhances the global coherence of the generated 3D heads. Moreover, as GANs often experience slower improvements in diversity once the generator learns a few modes that successfully fool the discriminator, our semantic conditioning encourages the generator to follow the true semantic distribution, thereby promoting continuous learning and diverse generation. Extensive experiments on full-head synthesis and single-view GAN inversion demonstrate that our method achieves significantly higher fidelity, diversity, and generalizability.
