Abstract
Recent 3D Instance Segmentation methods typically encode hundreds of instance-wise candidates with instance-specific information in various ways and refine them into final masks. However, they have yet to fully explore the benefit of these candidates. They overlook the valuable cues encoded in multiple candidates that represent different parts of the same instance, resulting in fragments. Also, they often fail to capture the precise spatial range of 3D instances, primarily due to inherent noises from sparse and unordered point clouds. In this work, to address these challenges, we propose IKNE, a novel instance-wise knowledge enhancement approach. We first introduce an Instance-wise Knowledge Aggregation (IKA) to associate scattered single instance details by optimizing correlations among candidates representing the same instance. Moreover, we present an Instance-wise Structural Guidance (ISG) to enhance the spatial understanding of candidates using structural cues from ambiguity-reduced features. Here, we utilize a simple yet effective truncated singular value decomposition algorithm to minimize inherent noises of 3D features. In our extensive experiments on large-scale datasets, ScanNetV2, ScanNet200, S3DIS, and STPLS3D, IKNE outperforms existing works. We validate the effectiveness of our modules in both kernel-based and transformer-based architectures.

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
