• Abstract: Existing zero-shot 3D point cloud segmentation methods often struggle with limited transferability from seen classes to unseen classes and from semantic to visual space. To alleviate this, we introduce 3D-PointZshotS, a geometry-aware zero-shot segmentation framework that enhances both feature generation and alignment using latent geometric prototypes (LGPs). Specifically, we integrate LGPs into a generator via a cross-attention mechanism, enriching semantic features with fine-grained geometric details. To further enhance stability and generalization, we introduce a self-consistency loss, which enforces feature robustness against point-wise perturbations. Additionally, we re-represent visual and semantic features in a shared space, bridging the semantic-visual gap and facilitating knowledge transfer to unseen classes. Experiments on three real-world datasets, namely ScanNet, SemanticKITTI, and S3DIS, demonstrate that our method achieves superior performance over four baselines in terms of harmonic mIoU. The code is available at \href{https://github.com/LexieYang/3D-PointZshotS}{Github}.

  Supervised 3D part segmentation models are tailored for a fixed set of objects and parts, limiting their transferability to open-set, real-world scenarios.<n>Recent works have explored vision-language models (VLMs) as a promising alternative, using multi-view rendering and textual prompting to identify object parts.<n>To address these limitations, we propose COPS, a COmprehensive model for Parts that blends semantics extracted from visual concepts and 3D geometry to effectively identify object parts.

  Zero-shot 3D point cloud understanding can be achieved via 2D Vision-Language Models (VLMs) Existing strategies directly map Vision-Language Models from 2D pixels of rendered or captured views to 3D points, overlooking the inherent and expressible point cloud geometric structure. We introduce the first training-free aggregation technique that leverages the point cloud's 3D geometric structure to improve the quality of the transferred Vision-Language Models.

  This work is to tackle the problem of point cloud semantic segmentation for 3D hybrid scenes under the framework of zero-shot learning. We propose a network to synthesize point features for various classes of objects by leveraging the semantic features of both seen and unseen object classes, called PFNet. The proposed PFNet employs a GAN architecture to synthesize point features, where the semantic relationship between seen-class and unseen-class features is consolidated by adapting a new semantic regularizer. We introduce two benchmarks for algorithmic evaluation by re-organizing the public S3DIS and ScanNet datasets under six different data splits.
