Texturing is a crucial step in the 3D asset production workflow, which enhances the visual appeal and diversity of 3D assets. Despite recent advancements in Text-to-Texture (T2T) generation, existing methods often yield subpar results, primarily due to local discontinuities, inconsistencies across multiple views, and heavy dependence on UV unwrapping outcomes. To tackle these challenges, we propose a novel generation-refinement 3D texturing framework called MVPaint, which can generate high-resolution, seamless textures while emphasizing multi-view consistency. MVPaint mainly consists of three key modules. 1) Synchronized Multi-view Generation (SMG). Given a 3D mesh model, MVPaint first simultaneously generates multi-view images by employing a SMG model, which leads to coarse texturing results with unpainted parts due to missing observations. 2) Spatial-aware 3D Inpainting (S3I). To ensure complete 3D texturing, we introduce the S3I method, specifically designed to texture previously unobserved areas effectively. 3) UV Refinement (UVR). Furthermore, MVPaint employs a UVR module to improve the texture quality in the UV space, which first performs a UV-space Super-Resolution, followed by a Spatial-aware Seam-Smoothing algorithm for revising spatial texturing discontinuities caused by UV unwrapping. Moreover, we establish two T2T evaluation benchmarks: the Objaverse T2T benchmark and the GSO T2T benchmark, based on selected high-quality 3D meshes from the Objaverse dataset and the entire GSO dataset, respectively. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that MVPaint surpasses existing state-of-the-art methods. Notably, MVPaint could generate high-fidelity textures with minimal Janus issues and highly enhanced cross-view consistency.

Point cloud registration is still a challenging and open problem. For example, when the overlap between two point clouds is extremely low, geo-only features may be not suf-ficient. Therefore, it is important to further explore how to utilize color data in this task. Under such circumstances, we propose ColorPCR for color point cloud registration with multi-stage geometric-color fusion. We design a Hier-archical Color Enhanced Feature Extraction module to ex-tract multi-level geometric-color features, and a GeoColor Superpoint Matching Module to encode transformation-invariant geo-color global context for robust patch corre-spondences. In this way, both geometric and color data can be used, thus leading to robust performance even under extremely challenging scenarios, such as low overlap between two point clouds. To evaluate the performance of our method, we colorize 3DMatch/3DLoMatch datasets as Color3DMatch/Color3DLoMatch and evaluations on these datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method. Our method achieves state-of-the-art registration recall of 97.5%/88.9% on them.
