Semantic Foam: Unifying Spatial and Semantic Scene Decomposition

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2604.26262v1 Announce Type: new Modern scene reconstruction methods, such as 3D Gaussian Splatting, enable photo-realistic novel view synthesis at real-time speeds. However, their adoption in interactive graphics applications remains limited due to the difficulty of interacting with these representations compared to traditional, human-authored 3D assets. While prior work has attempted to impose semantic decomposition on these models, significant challenges remain in segmentation quality and cross-view consistency. To address these limitations, we
