The model and PAI-Foundation4D benchmark cover 1,253 clips with dense depth and occupancy labels.

Foundation4D is a feed-forward model for geometry estimation, 3D detection, semantic occupancy, and Gaussian reconstruction from multi-camera driving video. A shared backbone uses factorized spatiotemporal attention, and inference refines trajectories with pose graph optimization while assembling object tracks. The authors also release PAI-Foundation4D, with dense depth and semantic occupancy labels for 1,253 driving clips. With benchmark-specific fine-tuning, they report leading depth, detection, and occupancy scores among compared methods, plus gains from co-training, and use predicted geometry as priors for lidarless NuRec.

Key facts
  • PAI-Foundation4D labels 1,253 driving clips for depth and occupancy.
  • Co-training detection raised top-class mAP by 1.2 points.
  • Geometry co-trained with detection cut translation error 13.4% relatively.
  • Predicted geometry and trajectories served as priors for lidarless NuRec.

We introduce Foundation4D, a unified feed-forward model for geometry estimation, 3D detection, semantic occupancy, and Gaussian reconstruction from multi-camera driving video. A shared backbone uses factorized spatiotemporal attention to efficiently combine observations across cameras and time.
