由模型翻译 · 术语统一 · 请对照原文核对关键结论从野外图像集合中进行可靠的三维重建,常常受到噪声图像的干扰——这些无关输入与其他图像几乎没有或完全没有视角重叠。传统 Structure-from-Motion 流程通过几何验证与离群值剔除来处理这类情况,而前馈式三维重建模型缺乏这些显式机制,导致在野外条件下性能下降。本文发现,现有的前馈重建模型(如 VGGT)尽管没有显式的离群值剔除机制,也没有噪声感知训练,却能够内在地区分干扰图像。通过在不同比例合成干扰图像下的深入分析,我们定位到一个自然表现出离群抑制行为的特定层。进一步的探测表明,该层编码了具有判别性的内部表征,从而具备有效的噪声过滤能力;我们直接利用这一能力,在无需任何额外微调或监督的情况下,在前馈三维重建中执行离群视图剔除。在受控数据集与野外数据集上的大量实验表明,这种隐式过滤机制具有一致性,并能在多样场景中良好泛化。

Reliable 3D reconstruction from in-the-wild image collections is often hindered by noisy images--irrelevant inputs with little or no view overlap with others. While traditional Structure-from-Motion pipelines handle such cases through geometric verification and outlier rejection, feed-forward 3D reconstruction models lack these explicit mechanisms, leading to degraded performance under in-the-wild conditions. In this paper, we discover that the existing feed-forward reconstruction model, e.g., VGGT, despite lacking explicit outlier-rejection mechanisms or noise-aware training, can inherently distinguish distractor images. Through an in-depth analysis under varying proportions of synthetic distractors, we identify a specific layer that naturally exhibits outlier-suppressing behavior. Further probing reveals that this layer encodes discriminative internal representations that enable an effective noise-filtering capability, which we simply leverage to perform outlier-view rejection in feed-forward 3D reconstruction without any additional fine-tuning or supervision. Extensive experiments on both controlled and in-the-wild datasets demonstrate that this implicit filtering mechanism is consistent and generalizes well across diverse scenarios.
