SeeSE3: Emergence of 3D Space in Vision Features

Caroline Chen, Sayna Ebrahimi, Fedor Kitashov, Ming-Hsuan Yang, Leonidas Guibas, Viorica Pătrăucean, et al.

In this paper, we ask whether vision foundation models construct representations that reflect the intrinsic properties of 3D Euclidean space. Unlike previous works that probe 3D awareness of vision features by regressing image-centric quantities such as depth or normals, we inves…

Gen4U: Unifying Video Generation and Understanding via Diffusion

Michael King, Aravindh Mahendran, Matthew Koichi Grimes, Fedor Kitashov, Adham Elarabawy, Pedro Velez, et al.

Prior work suggests that diffusion representations capture low-level geometry but struggle with high-level semantics. We demonstrate that state-of-the-art video diffusion models overcome this limitation. By systematically probing their intermediate activations using recent mutual…
