Privileged motion and gravity cues improve feedforward 3D reconstruction without extra test-time cost.

Training with residual optical flow and gravity direction as privileged signals makes transformer-based reconstruction more robust in dynamic scenes, with no change to inference inputs.

Qian, Ren and Bai augment feedforward transformer models for multi-view 3D reconstruction by supplying optical flow and gravity direction as privileged information during training only.

The authors adopt the Learning Using Privileged Information (LUPI) paradigm.
