ArXi:2605.08293v1 Announce Type: new 3D semantic scene understanding has broad applications in digital twins, autonomous driving, smart agriculture, and embodied perception. However, dense point-wise annotation for point clouds is extremely expensive, making fully supervised 3D semantic learning difficult to scale. Recent annotation-free methods can discover semantic regions without manual 3D labels, but they often suffer from weak object-level consistency, inefficient global grouping, and category-agnostic segmented regions.
