PointForward V2: Point-Aligned Interaction for Feedforward Driving Reconstruction

Feedforward reconstruction of dynamic driving scenes requires integrating observations across multiple views and time steps into a coherent 3D representation.

Key points

  • PointForward established state-of-the-art feedforward driving reconstruction by lifting image observations into sparse 3D queries, demonstrating the effectiveness of point-aligned scene representations.
  • In this work, we present PointForward V2, which advances point-aligned representation to point-aligned interaction.
  • We further employ 4D positional encoding that combines aligned spatial coordinates with original timestamps, enabling spatially aligned yet temporally distinguishable interactions.
  • In this way, PointForward V2 enables scalable spatio-temporal reasoning directly among lifted 3D queries without dense global attention.
