We reveal that Visual Geometry Grounded Transformers (VGGT) has a built-in ability to detect outliers, which we leverage to perform outlier-view rejection without any fine-tuning.

What to expect:

• Demo inference code
• Evaluation code
• Visualization code

Our code is developed based on pytorch 2.5.1, CUDA 12.1 and python 3.10.

We recommend using conda for installation:

conda create -n robust_vggt python=3.10
conda activate robust_vggt

pip install torch==2.5.1 torchvision==0.20.1 torchaudio==2.5.1 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
pip install -r requirements.txt

To run the robust reconstruction demo with outlier rejection:

python robust_vggt.py --image-dir examples/trevi

python robust_vggt.py --image-dir examples/notredame --rej-thresh 0.3

We thank the authors of VGGT for their excellent work and code, which served as the foundation for this project.
