PhysStream: Streaming Physics-Grounded Video Generation with Structured Scene Memory and Fine-Grained Motion Control

PhysStream enables mid-generation interactive control of physics-grounded video via structured scene memory and velocity-increment signals, reducing motion distribution distance 33%.

PhysStream is an autoregressive physics-grounded image-to-video model that maintains structured scene memory—positional maps and object tracking maps derived online from previously generated frames—and accepts fine-grained motion control via sparse velocity-increment signals encoding physical quantities. Training runs in two stages: a bidirectional model finetuned with motion-control conditioning, then a causal autoregressive model with structured scene memory. It supports interactive mid-generation control over multi-object tabletop rigid-body scenes, reducing motion distribution distance (FVMD) by 33% and trajectory error by 12% over the strongest baselines. Human evaluators preferred it in over 85% of in-the-wild comparisons.

Kaininja: Extending Native 3D Generators to the Part Level

KaiNinja extends TRELLIS.2 native 3D generation to part-level assets via a dual-volume O-Voxel representation, cutting whole-object Chamfer distance by 40%.

KaiNinja extends the TRELLIS.2 native 3D generator to produce part-level assets instead of one fused mesh, enabling downstream editing, rigging, and simulation. A dual-volume form of the O-Voxel representation solves the problem that a single volume cannot represent interfaces where two parts touch. The model needs no segmentation network, is partly trained on LLM-agent-authored part data, lowers whole-object Chamfer distance by 40%, and raises strict part F-score by 16% versus other part-generation pipelines.

SceneMosaic: Efficient and Diverse Simulation-Ready Scene Generation via Hybrid Agentic Layout Evolution

SceneMosaic combines image-based 3D priors with VLM agent refinement to generate diverse, simulation-ready indoor scenes 24x faster than agentic baselines.

SceneMosaic is a hybrid framework that takes an initial candidate from a learned image-to-3D prior and evolves it with VLM agents for efficiency and physical validity. It decomposes scenes into independent local units, evolves each separately, and composes the global scene via Cartesian product. On SceneEval-100 it matches the strongest agentic baseline in semantic layout quality with a 24x speedup, substantially reduces physical violations, and receives the highest human ratings. Code is publicly available.

Recursive Code World Models: Building Complex Worlds through Recursive Scene Programs

RCWM reconstructs complex 3D worlds as executable code from a single image using recursive scene programs with global-local-global solver recursion.

The paper introduces Recursive Code World Models, coupling a Recursive Scene Program representation with a recursive construction solver for image-to-3D-world reconstruction. Each solver call establishes the whole scene, recursively reconstructs unresolved parts, and revisits the whole to refine composition, while a vision-language coding agent compares reference images with scene renders to guide refinement. RCWM outperforms prior code-based image-to-scene reconstruction methods, and ablations show deeper recursive calls improve fine-scale reconstruction.

Learning 3D Editing without Paired Supervision via Generative Prior Distillation

New framework distills 2D editing and VLM priors into a feed-forward 3D editing model without paired 3D training data.

The method, PriorEdit3D, learns feed-forward instruction-guided 3D editing by distilling knowledge from foundation models instead of using ground-truth 3D pairs. Through a differentiable rendering pipeline it supervises a 2D visual prior from an image editing model at the main view and a Vision-Language Model semantic prior at novel views for instruction fidelity and identity preservation. A 3D-aware Distribution Matching regularization constrains outputs to the manifold of realistic 3D assets defined by a pretrained image-to-3D teacher. Experiments report superior instruction fidelity and cross-view consistency over state-of-the-art baselines, with code released on GitHub.

Agentic Visual Generation: From Generative Models to Agentic Control

Researchers propose an L0-L4 control taxonomy for agentic visual generation, classifying controllers from fixed conditioning to experience-adaptive decision-making.

This paper proposes a taxonomy for agentic visual generation organized by what the controller can directly control in the generation process, rather than by planning depth, tool count, or model size. Levels range from L1 Conditioning Control through L2 Execution Control, L3 Outcome-Adaptive Control, and L4 Experience-Adaptive Control, with L0 Fixed Support denoting systems without a deployed decision-making controller. The framework is applied across image, video, editing, 3D, world, slide, and user-interface generation to map how controller capabilities and mechanisms have evolved across the field.

GoDeep: Annotation-Free Open-Vocabulary 3D Scene Understanding via Language-Space Lifting

GoDeep achieves annotation-free open-vocabulary 3D segmentation by grounding structured image descriptions in language-only embeddings, outperforming CLIP-based lifting on out-of-vocabulary objects.

GoDeep uses a vision-language model purely as a translator, producing structured entity-level image descriptions that are grounded, projected, and aggregated in a general-purpose language-only embedding space, with no 3D training corpus or dedicated 3D encoder required. On ScanNet++ the pipeline is competitive with strong annotation-free baselines, and on a cultural-heritage benchmark a systematic vocabulary correction reverses initial CLIP-based rankings. Language-space embeddings separate genuinely out-of-vocabulary objects more sharply, localize them within scenes, and keep all predictions explainable as discrete text.
