3D scene representation for robot manipulation should capture three key object properties: permanency -- objects that become occluded over time continue to exist; amodal completeness -- objects have 3D occupancy, even if only partial observations are available; spatiotemporal continuity -- the movement of each object is continuous over space and time. In this paper, we introduce 3D Dynamic Scene Representation (DSR), a 3D volumetric scene representation that simultaneously discovers, tracks, reconstructs objects, and predicts their dynamics while capturing all three properties. We further propose DSR-Net, which learns to aggregate visual observations over multiple interactions to gradually build and refine DSR. Our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in modeling 3D scene dynamics with DSR on both simulated and real data. Combined with model predictive control, DSR-Net enables accurate planning in downstream robotic manipulation tasks such as planar pushing. Video is available at https://youtu.be/GQjYG3nQJ80.

  1. DIPOLE: Fusing Vision and Geometry for Robust Visuomotor Generalization

    cs.RO 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0

    Fusing RGB and point-cloud inputs with training-time modality dropout plus cross-attention makes a diffusion visuomotor policy markedly more robust to visual and spatial shifts than unimodal or naively fused baselines.
