Congratulations to Noah Snavely @Jimantha from @Cornell receiving the 2026 Thomas S. Huang Memorial Prize at @CVPR — a well-deserved recognition of his impactful contributions to computer vision research and our community. Remembering Tom & Margaret: youtu.be/QV7WnO9Lk9M?si…


A SINGLE encoder + decoder for all the 4D tasks! We release 🎯 D4RT (Dynamic 4D Reconstruction and Tracking). 📍 A simple, unified interface for 3D tracking, depth, and pose 🌟 SOTA results on 4D reconstruction & tracking 🚀 Up to 100x faster pose estimation than prior works


Excited to share ArchSym at #CVPR2026! 🏛️ Existing 3D symmetry detectors work well on clean, object-centric data. But what about in the wild? In our work, we tackle 3D-grounded reflectional symmetry detection specifically for real-world architectural landmarks. 🧵[1/7]


Honey, I Shrunk the Arc de Triomphe! 😱 Ever notice how SOTA depth models suffer from "scale-collapse"—metrically shrinking distant landmarks like they're toys? We introduce MetricScenes: a new in-the-wild metric dataset that fixes this!

Spatial reconstruction is a long-context problem: real scenes come with hundreds of images. But O(N²) transformer-based models don’t scale efficiently. Introducing: 🤐ZipMap (CVPR ’26): Linear-Time, Stateful 3D Reconstruction via Test-Time Training (TTT). ZipMap “zips” a large image collection into an implicit TTT scene state in a single linear-time operation. The state will then be decoded into spatial outputs, and can be queried efficiently for novel-view geometry and appearance (~100 FPS) ZipMap is not only much faster (>20× faster than VGGT), but also matches or surpasses the accuracy of all SOTA models.
