Mira-Scene: Pixel-Aligned Layouts for Generative 3D Scene

arXiv 2026 17.9 method

TLDR

Mira-Scene reconstructs compositional 3D scenes from single images using Canonical Coordinate Maps and a multimodal diffusion transformer for pixel-aligned object layouts.

Reasoning

The paper introduces a novel dense correspondence representation for layout estimation, which is a solid technical contribution. However, the abstract provides no evidence of real-world evaluation, and its connection to world models is tangential.
