PatchAlign3D: Local Feature Alignment for Dense 3D Shape Understanding
Souhail Hadgi, Bingchen Gong, Ramana Sundararaman +4
Current foundation models for 3D shapes excel at global tasks (retrieval, classification) but transfer poorly to local part-level reasoning. Recent approaches leverage vision and l…

Escaping Plato's Cave: Towards the Alignment of 3D and Text Latent Spaces
Souhail Hadgi, Luca Moschella, Andrea Santilli +5
Recent works have shown that, when trained at scale, uni-modal 2D vision and text encoders converge to learned features that share remarkable structural properties, despite arising…
