Graph3R: Unifying View Graph Initialization with Feed-Forward Reconstruction

Jingwen Yu, Hengli Wang, Jianhao Jiao, Zhonghang Liu, Ping Tan +1

Feed-forward reconstruction recovers camera poses and dense geometry from image sets whose views are assumed to come from a single scene. In practice, uncurated image collections often contain views from disjoint scenes, and reconstructing these views jointly can corrupt camera poses and geometry. Existing pipelines typically resolve view associations in separate stages before final reconstruction, leaving view graph initialization and reconstruction inference only loosely coupled. We introduce Graph3R, which unifies view graph initialization with feed-forward reconstruction through a shared geometric representation. A lightweight verification head predicts pairwise covisibility from the multi-view features of $π^3$ to construct a view graph. This graph classifies the input views into scene groups. For each group, we mask the shared features before decoding camera poses and dense geometry. Reusing the multi-view features allows Graph3R to reconstruct disjoint scenes separately with a single backbone pass. Across three benchmarks, Graph3R improves average maximum recall at 100% precision by upto 8.99 percentage points over the baseline, while improving reconstruction quality on…
