Open-vocabulary 3D semantic segmentation aims to segment arbitrary categories beyond the training set. Existing methods predominantly rely on distilling knowledge from 2D open-vocabulary models. However, aligning 3D features to the 2D representation space restricts intrinsic 3D geometric learning and inherits errors from 2D predictions. To address these limitations, we propose GeoGuide, a novel framework that leverages pretrained 3D models to integrate hierarchical geometry-semantic consistency for open-vocabulary 3D segmentation. Specifically, we introduce an Uncertainty-based Superpoint Distillation module to fuse geometric and semantic features for estimating per-point uncertainty, adaptively weighting 2D features within superpoints to suppress noise while preserving discriminative information to enhance local semantic consistency. Furthermore, our Instance-level Mask Reconstruction module leverages geometric priors to enforce semantic consistency within instances by reconstructing complete instance masks. Additionally, our Inter-Instance Relation Consistency module aligns geometric and semantic similarity matrices to calibrate cross-instance consistency for same-category objects, mitigating viewpoint-induced semantic drift. Extensive experiments on ScanNet v2, Matterport3D, and nuScenes demonstrate the superior performance of GeoGuide.

Image-to-point cloud registration is often challenged by viewpoint changes, cross-modal discrepancies, and repetitive textures, which induce scale ambiguity and consequently lead to erroneous correspondences. Recent detection-free methods alleviate this issue by leveraging multi-scale features and transformer-based interactions. However, they still suffer from attention drift across layers and intra-scale inconsistencies, hindering precise registration. Inspired by human behavior, we propose a ``Focus--Sweep'' paradigm and develop a Hierarchical Focus--Sweep Interaction Module within an SSM-based framework to enhance multi-level cross-modal feature association. In addition, we introduce a Dynamic Layer Allocation Strategy that adaptively determines the iteration depth to better exploit geometric constraints and improve matching robustness. Extensive experiments and ablations on two benchmarks, RGB-D Scenes V2 and 7-Scenes, demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance.
