Large view synthesis models synthesize novel views through cross-view attention without explicit 3D representations, and recent studies have shown that they learn accurate spatial correspondence from RGB supervision alone. We observe that this correspondence generalizes beyond appearance. When non-photorealistic signals such as binary encoded panoptic labels are passed through the model, they are propagated to novel views with consistent spatial structure. These results indicate that the correspondence learned for RGB view synthesis can also propagate view-independent per-pixel labels. From this observation, we present the first work to extend large view synthesis models beyond appearance rendering to 3D scene understanding. We propose a panoptic segmentation pipeline that reuses a frozen view synthesis model to propagate panoptic labels from input views to novel views, without 3D reconstruction or any segmentation-specific training of the view synthesis model. Given panoptic labels on the input views, we encode them into binary channel representations and pass them through the same model to render target-view segmentation. On ScanNet, our method achieves segmentation quality on par with Gaussian based approaches requiring explicit 3D reconstruction, while outperforming them in novel view synthesis by more than 7 dB. The label propagation also transfers across datasets, surpassing these approaches on Replica without any fine-tuning.
Recently, generalizable human Gaussian splatting from sparse-view inputs has been actively studied for the photorealistic human rendering. Most existing methods rely on explicit geometric constraints or predefined structural representations to accurately position 3D Gaussians. Although these approaches have shown the remarkable progress in this field, they still suffer from inconsistent feature representations across multi-view inputs due to complex articulations of the human body and limited overlaps between different views. To address this problem, we propose a novel method to accurately localize 3D Gaussians and ultimately improve the quality of human rendering. The key idea is to unproject latent embeddings encoded from each viewpoint into a shared 3D space through predicted depth maps and recalibrate them belonging to the same body part based on cross-view attention. This helps the model resolve the spatial ambiguity occurring in highly textured regions as well as occluded body parts, thus leading to the accurate localization of 3D Gaussians. Experimental results on benchmark datasets show that the proposed method efficiently improves the performance of generalizable human Gaussian splatting from sparse-view inputs.
