3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables photorealistic real-time novel view synthesis, yet placing a virtual camera to capture a desired frame remains largely manual. Existing language-guided approaches in 3D scenes mainly focus on object-centric grounding, determining what to observe but rarely controlling how it should appear in a single frame, such as subject orientation or frame layout. To address this limitation, we introduce a new task, Text-Instructed Viewpoint Grounding (TIVG), which aims to identify a 6-DoF camera pose in a 3D Gaussian scene whose rendered frame aligns with a text instruction. To solve this task, we propose CapFrame, a partially differentiable framework that converts language into geometric pseudo labels for camera pose optimization. CapFrame follows a Retrieve-Translate-Refine pipeline: it retrieves relevant views and ranks them through a Question-Evaluation process with MLLMs, translates the instruction into orientation and layout pseudo labels, and refines the camera pose via differentiable optimization with layout and orientation losses in 3DGS. Experiments on 38 real-world scenes with 135 instructions indicate that CapFrame produces viewpoints better aligned with texts than heuristic viewpoint search and adapted trajectory generation baselines, validated by VLM metrics, MLLM judges, and user studies.

Artists coordinate human pose, illumination, and camera placement to convey narrative and emotion, but existing generative methods typically model these elements independently. We introduce text-to-editable 3D staging, a task that jointly generates human poses, a dominant light, and a camera configuration from an affective description. We construct 11,911 text--staging pairs from 2,328 figurative paintings by reconstructing SMPL bodies, estimating low-frequency illumination, recovering camera parameters, and pairing each scene with ArtEmis descriptions. We train a flow-matching transformer that supports variable numbers of figures and produces multiple staging alternatives for each prompt. On held-out descriptions, the model achieves 32.2\% retrieval R@1, compared with 16.6\% for CLIP-based nearest-neighbor retrieval, while approximately preserving corpus-level diversity. These results demonstrate the feasibility of generating editable, emotionally conditioned 3D staging references from text.
While text-to-3D generation has advanced rapidly, achieving high geometric fidelity at low inference cost remains challenging. Existing text-to-3D methods either decode discrete shape tokens autoregressively or iteratively refine global 3D representations with diffusion or flow models. However, autoregressive decoding is sequential and cannot revise errors, whereas diffusion and flow-matching models repeatedly process the full representation, making high-quality generation increasingly expensive. In this paper, we propose Block3D, a block-wise diffusion framework that partitions the discrete shape-token sequence into contiguous blocks, generates the blocks autoregressively, and jointly denoises all tokens within the current block. To alleviate error accumulation, we introduce confidence-guided intra-block correction, which revises low-confidence tokens before each block is finalized. On a held-out set from TRELLIS-500K, Block3D reduces mean end-to-end generation time from 25.71 seconds to 4.99 seconds, achieving a $5.15\times$ speedup over the fine-tuned autoregressive baseline without sacrificing geometric fidelity.
Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) enables text-to-3D generation by optimizing rendered images with a pretrained diffusion prior, but latent SDS often produces structured color artifacts and high-frequency texture noise. We identify a failure mode of latent SDS caused by VAE-induced pixel drift: the optimized image can move along pixel-space directions that are weakly constrained by the VAE encoder, so its latent representation remains clean and semantically meaningful while the image itself accumulates visible artifacts. We support this diagnosis with controlled 2D SDS experiments, VAE-only optimization, and a simplified analysis showing that encoder-like latent objectives can amplify image-space noise when the inverse mapping to pixels is underconstrained. Motivated by this observation, we propose PixSDS, a lightweight VAE-consistent gradient repair method. PixSDS decodes a latent SDS lookahead step and uses the decoded image as a clean direction for pixel-space optimization, reducing motion in VAE-inconsistent directions without retraining the diffusion model, changing the renderer, or replacing the SDS objective. Experiments in 2D optimization and text-to-3D generation show that PixSDS substantially reduces structured artifacts while preserving semantic content.

Realistic 3D human generation plays a crucial role in many graphics applications. However, current methods still struggle to generate high-quality human geometry and texture while maintaining 3D consistency and inference efficiency. In this work, we address these limitations by introducing TGRHuman, a novel approach for generating realistic 3D humans from text. Our method decouples geometry and texture generation to alleviate the issues commonly encountered in NeRF-based methods. Instead of relying on slow, implicit score-distillation-based optimization, we directly use explicit multi-view observation generation and optimization for efficient 3D synthesis. For geometry generation, we propose a high-resolution generative module for multi-view normals together with a geometry-carving strategy that preserves view consistency and supports loose clothing. For texture generation, we produce spatially consistent RGB observations from densely sampled surrounding views using a carefully designed texture-prior acquisition strategy and a diffusion renderer, enabling detailed human texture synthesis. Experiments show that our method can generate high-quality and consistent 3D human geometry and texture efficiently. TGRHuman outperforms existing text-to-3D human methods in both geometry and texture quality.
Text-driven 3D generation has advanced rapidly in creating large-scale outdoor environments and detailed indoor scenes, but these domains are usually synthesized independently, lacking the correspondence required for a coherent urban world. We present HoloWorld, a unified indoor-outdoor urban world generation framework built on a continuously updated cross-scale world context. Initializing from a user description, HoloWorld progressively represents and updates the diverse world information, from city-scale planning to individual buildings, allowing generated interiors to maintain explicit correspondence with their associated exterior buildings. Conditioned on the evolving context and previously generated neighboring blocks, HoloWorld autoregressively generates urban exteriors with consistent spatial organization and visual identity across blocks. The generated exterior representations are further grounded in 3D building instances and footprints, enabling building-specific indoor generation with geometry-constrained layouts and inherited appearance characteristics. To our knowledge, HoloWorld is the first framework to unify indoor and outdoor generation within a coherent 3D urban world. Extensive experiments demonstrate that HoloWorld achieves superior urban exterior generation performance, improving the average AQS score over the SOTA by 7.68\% and obtaining the highest average RDR score, while maintaining strong building-level indoor-outdoor correspondence and cross-block continuity within a unified 3D urban world.
Generating large-scale, freely explorable 3D worlds from open-ended text remains challenging because a system must jointly maintain global spatial coherence, rich local content, and explicit assets suitable for downstream editing and reuse. We present WorldClaw, a fully agentic, coarse-to-fine framework for open-world 3D scene generation. Planning agents translate a text prompt into a structured specification of regions, terrain, assets, materials, and spatial relations. WorldClaw then builds a globally coherent terrain foundation from semantic layouts, reusable assets, generative or procedural materials, and a region-aware height field. For detail-demanding regions, it generates terrain-conditioned compositions, reconstructs editable textured meshes, and recovers their placement on the terrain; render-based agents further refine terrain, objects, appearance, and contacts. Across diverse open-world prompts, WorldClaw produces large-scale scenes with coherent spatial organization, visually compelling local content, and editable instance-level assets while preserving a consistent global terrain structure.
Challenges remain in ego-centric 3D scene generation due to limited view overlap and the dominant influence of individual perspectives on scene interpretation. These factors hinder the creation of viewpoint-consistent and semantically aligned visual content, as well as the construction of accurate geometric structures. In this paper, we propose CGGS, a text-to-3D framework aiming to enhance 3D-content-awareness and address geometric distortions in ego-centric scene generation. Firstly, the Ego-centric Generator is proposed by fine-tuning a Multi-View Latent Diffusion Model with consistency-augmented loss to generate consistent, high-fidelity 2D content aligned with textual descriptions. Then, Layout Decorator leverages optical flow and point-track correspondence to estimate depth, therefore producing dense point clouds as coarse layouts from the ego-centric 2D priors. Building on this initialization, Geometric Refiner is proposed to enhance 3D Gaussian reconstruction via an entropy-based Mutual Information Depth Loss (MID) combined with a hierarchical optimization scheme for improving visual quality and geometric structure. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that CGGS outperforms previous methods in generating coherent and accurate text-driven 3D scenes.
Recent advances in 3D content generation from text or images have achieved impressive results, yet view inconsistency from 2D generators and the scarcity of high-quality 3D data remain significant bottlenecks. Existing solutions typically adapt large-scale pre-trained text-to-image latent diffusion models to generate 3D Gaussian Splats (3DGS). However, these approaches often rely on training complex cascade pipelines that are computationally expensive and scalability-limited. Most critically, the quality of generated 3D assets is inherently constrained by each component capacity and compressed latent space, leading to decoding artifacts and accumulated errors. To address these limitations, we propose PixGS, a single-stage pipeline for direct high-quality 3DGS generation, which leverages recent advances in pixel-space diffusion to bypass lossy latent compression while still benefiting from the vast 2D generative priors. By directly denoising 3D Gaussian attributes at each timestep, our method enables precise, splat-level regularization of both appearance and geometry. Furthermore, we introduce a comprehensive supervision strategy that incorporates surface normals, depth, and high-frequency structural information, which is often overlooked in prior works. Experiments demonstrate that PixGS outperforms current state-of-the-art methods while maintaining a fast inference speed (1s on a single A100 GPU), offering a robust and efficient alternative to multi-stage generation pipelines.
Generic text-to-video models can be used as rich open-world scene priors. Despite the high quality of today's generated videos, they do not directly yield reliable 3D assets: camera motion is difficult to control, view coverage is partial, and frames often contain inconsistencies across time. We introduce OrbitForge, an adapter built from frozen video priors and per-prompt Gaussian Splatting reconstruction optimization that converts a single text-generated video into a canonical closed-orbit 3D Gaussian Splatting scene. We use 3D reconstruction as an anchor to improve the 3D consistency of the generated video. We obtain a preliminary 3D reconstruction from a first generated video via Deformable Gaussian Splatting with a robust MedianGS proxy. We render views from a prescribed orbit to detect missing viewpoints. OrbitForge uses the text-to-video model to complete only the missing views, and reconstructs the completed orbit into a final Gaussian Splatting scene. This design requires no task-specific video or multiview fine-tuning, avoids per-prompt score-distillation optimization, and does not progressively generate views one step at a time. We further argue that this setting demands coverage-aware evaluation: local smoothness alone rewards methods that never attempt a full orbit. On a frozen 300-prompt T3Bench-derived audit, OrbitForge reconstruction attains a 359.0-degree measured median span, raises originally unsupported-bin Q10 ImageReward from 8.07 to 16.36 relative to MedianGS-only reconstruction, while remaining competitive with VideoMV on the coverage-quality.

Text and image conditioned 3D models now generate convincing assets, but they still offer little direct control over the space an object should occupy or avoid. In authoring, this spatial intent is often known before generation starts. A chair should fit a seating envelope, a prop should leave clearance for motion, or a part should expose a contact surface. Prompts and image views are poor carriers for such constraints, requiring the need for an explicit control interface. We present Arbor, a trainable attachment for text conditioned latent 3D generation. Arbor introduces constraint meshes as a native 3D control interface. The interface uses hull regions where geometry should exist, avoidance regions that should remain empty, and touch regions the object should contact. Unlike completion or whole object scaffold control, these meshes are not target evidence. They are local typed requirements and can include regions where no surface should appear. Arbor keeps this signal as geometry by converting constraint meshes into tokens and learning a routed attachment inside a frozen denoiser. Each latent region can therefore receive the part of the constraint that matters for its spatial location. We evaluate Arbor on automatic and artist curated control benchmarks with hull, avoidance, and touch constraints, and compare the metric trends to a user preference study. Even without dedicated compliance losses, Arbor improves constraint obedience while preserving object quality and variation under fixed constraints.

Creating 3D visual illusions, a single 3D mesh that reveals entirely different semantics from various viewing angles, is a fascinating but tough challenge. Existing optimization-based methods are slow and can produce oversaturated colors. In contrast, naive stitching approaches fail to produce geometrically coherent objects. This results in visible unnatural seams and semantic leaks. In this paper, we present a fast and training-free framework for generating text-driven 3D visual illusions. Our approach decouples the generation into two stages. First, we propose a cross-space dual-branch denoising process. This process dynamically decodes 3D latents into voxel space for CLIP-guided orientation alignment and Signed Distance Field (SDF) blending, which ensures seamless geometric fusion. Second, we introduce a view-conditioned texture synthesis module that projects and aggregates view-specific 2D diffusion priors onto the fused geometry. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method generates highly realistic, dual-semantic 3D illusions in just 3-5 minutes. It significantly outperforms existing methods in geometric integrity, semantic recognizability, and efficiency. Project page: https://siang1105.github.io/JanusMesh.github.io/
Text-conditioned 3D generation has progressed rapidly for images and isolated objects, but producing a hand-object mesh remains challenging: the output must preserve language semantics, cross-view consistency, object geometry, articulated hand shape, and physically plausible contact. We present TextHOI-3D, a staged framework that uses generated multi-view observations as an explicit interface between text-conditioned visual generation and geometry-aware hand-object recovery. TextHOI-3D learns a compact VQ token space for fixed-camera hand-object observations, predicts multi-view visual tokens from text with a CLIP-conditioned visual autoregressive model, and recovers a unified hand-object mesh through prior initialization, multi-view joint optimization, and anti-penetration refinement. The design separates semantic generation from geometric recovery while keeping both stages connected by a discrete multi-view representation. On HO3D-derived evaluations, the multi-view setting reduces object CD from 17.26 mm to 4.92 mm and penetration volume from 5.3721 cm^3 to 0.2193 cm^3 compared with a single-view counterpart, while improving hand errors and surface F-scores. These results support multi-view visual tokens as an effective intermediate representation for text-driven 3D hand-object mesh creation.
Large Vision-Language Models have achieved significant reasoning performance in various tasks. However, there are few studies on text-to-3D indoor scene generation with LVLMs. The main challenge is that prevailing LVLM-based methods employ chain-of-thought sequential decision mechanisms that cannot revise earlier decisions, causing error propagation. In this paper, we consider the task as a planning problem constrained by spatial and layout commonsense. To solve this problem, we model it as a tree search problem with global and local trees, which differs from existing sequential decision-making approaches. In the global tree, we place each object iteratively and explore multiple attempts like humans furnishing a room, where the problem space is represented as a tree. To effectively search the tree, we propose a hierarchical scene representation and a PRM-guided MCTS method. This representation abstracts a scene into room level, region level, floor object level, and supported object level. The PRM-guided MCTS method uses the PRM to prune unnecessary branches and the MCTS algorithm to balance exploration and exploitation to get an optimal solution with fewer attempts. In the local tree, it further decomposes the placement of each object into finer sub-steps, including the specific placement parameters. To make the whole appearance of the scene consistent, we leverage pre-trained diffusion image generative models to predict textures for all the objects in the scene. As existing benchmarks for text-to-3D indoor scene generation remain limited in scale and diversity, we collect a new large-scale diverse dataset that contains 65 scene types and 3250 instructions with diverse sizes, layouts, and styles, named 3DTindo-bench, to better assess the capability of the state-of-the-art models. Our experiments show that our method generates more realistic 3D scenes than state-of-the-art methods.
