Recent work has demonstrated the ability to leverage or distill pre-trained 2D features obtained using large pre-trained 2D models into 3D features, enabling impressive 3D editing and understanding capabilities using only 2D supervision. Although impressive, models assume that 3D features are captured using a single feature field and often make a simplifying assumption that features are view-independent. In this work, we propose instead to capture 3D features using multiple disentangled feature fields that capture different structural components of 3D features involving view-dependent and view-independent components, which can be learned from 2D feature supervision only. Subsequently, each element can be controlled in isolation, enabling semantic and structural understanding and editing capabilities. For instance, using a user click, one can segment 3D features corresponding to a given object and then segment, edit, or remove their view-dependent (reflective) properties. We evaluate our approach on the task of 3D segmentation and demonstrate a set of novel understanding and editing tasks.

Flow-based generative models have recently shown impressive performance for conditional generation tasks, such as text-to-image generation. However, current methods transform a general unimodal noise distribution to a specific mode of the target data distribution. As such, every point in the initial source distribution can be mapped to every point in the target distribution, resulting in long average paths. To this end, in this work, we tap into a non-utilized property of conditional flow-based models: the ability to design a non-trivial prior distribution. Given an input condition, such as a text prompt, we first map it to a point lying in data space, representing an ``average" data point with the minimal average distance to all data points of the same conditional mode (e.g., class). We then utilize the flow matching formulation to map samples from a parametric distribution centered around this point to the conditional target distribution. Experimentally, our method significantly improves training times and generation efficiency (FID, KID and CLIP alignment scores) compared to baselines, producing high quality samples using fewer sampling steps.
