FreeView: training-free distractor rejection enables robust 3D reconstruction from uncurated photos

FreeView is a training-free framework for robust 3D reconstruction from uncurated image collections. It uses collection-level consensus (DINOv2 Top-K similarity) to automatically select a representative reference view, then adaptively rejects distractors by combining appearance and geometric cues — rejecting only when both are low — integrating with VGGT and π³ without manual curation or calibration. Across Phototourism, ETH3D and On-the-Go benchmarks at varying distractor levels, it achieves high clean-view retention and distractor rejection, markedly improving pose and reconstruction accuracy over reference-conditioned baselines.
