Abstract
Semantic-aware mapping is crucial for advancing robotic navigation and interaction within complex environments. Traditional 3D mapping techniques primarily capture geometric details, missing the semantic richness necessary for autonomous systems to understand their surroundings comprehensively. This paper presents Sea-SHINE, a novel approach that integrates semantic information within a neural implicit mapping framework for large-scale environments. Our method enhances the utility and navigational relevance of 3D maps by embedding semantic awareness into the mapping process, allowing robots to recognize, understand, and reconstruct environments effectively. The proposed system leverages dual decoders and a semantic awareness module, which utilizes Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) to condition mapping on semantic labels. Extensive experiments on datasets such as SemanticKITTI, KITTI-360, and ITLP-Campus demonstrate significant improvements in map precision and recall, particularly in recognizing crucial objects like road signs. Our implementation bridges the gap between geometric accuracy and semantic understanding, fostering a deeper interaction between robots and their operational environments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
