Humans can naturally identify and mentally complete occluded objects in cluttered environments. However, imparting similar cognitive ability to robotics remains challenging even with advanced reconstruction techniques, which models scenes as undifferentiated wholes and fails to recognize complete object from partial observations. In this paper, we propose InstaScene, a new paradigm towards holistic 3D perception of complex scenes with a primary goal: decomposing arbitrary instances while ensuring complete reconstruction. To achieve precise decomposition, we develop a novel spatial contrastive learning by tracing rasterization of each instance across views, significantly enhancing semantic supervision in cluttered scenes. To overcome incompleteness from limited observations, we introduce in-situ generation that harnesses valuable observations and geometric cues, effectively guiding 3D generative models to reconstruct complete instances that seamlessly align with the real world. Experiments on scene decomposition and object completion across complex real-world and synthetic scenes demonstrate that our method achieves superior decomposition accuracy while producing geometrically faithful and visually intact objects.
Given a reconstructed Gaussian Splatting scene, our method first clusters and filters 2D segmentation masks by tracing the rasterization of Gaussian Splatting, which yields 2D and 3D instance masks. Then, we use spatial contrastive learning with mask supervision to train a feature field that achieves high-quality scene decomposition. Finally, for each decomposed incomplete object, we conduct an in-situ generation pipeline that takes all known observations and geometric cues as omni-conditions to the 3D generative model to obtain supplemented views, which will be jointly fine-tuned with source training views to obtain a complete object.
Our method learns a highly distinguishable feature field, enabling fine-grained and real-time interactive segmentation.
We put the reconstructed instance back into the original scene. Compared to generic image-to-3D methods, our in-situ generation ensures both appearance and geometric consistency with the original scene while faithfully completing the unseen regions.
We present the application of interactive manipulation on instances reconstructed using our in-situ generation method, including object duplication, translation, and rotation. The naive extraction of instances without in-situ generation results in significant incompleteness, and hinders the application in simulated environments.
