Cascade-Zero123: One Image to Highly Consistent 3D with Self-Prompted Nearby Views
Synthesizing multi-view 3D from one single image is a significant and challenging task. For this goal, Zero-1-to-3 methods aim to extend a 2D latent diffusion model to the 3D scope. These approaches generate the target-view image with a single-view source image and the camera pose as condition information. However, the one-to-one manner adopted in Zero-1-to-3 incurs challenges for building geometric and visual consistency across views, especially for complex objects. We propose a cascade generation framework constructed with two Zero-1-to-3 models, named Cascade-Zero123, to tackle this issue, which progressively extracts 3D information from the source image. Specifically, a self-prompting mechanism is designed to generate several nearby views at first. These views are then fed into the second-stage model along with the source image as generation conditions. With self-prompted multiple views as the supplementary information, our Cascade-Zero123 generates more highly consistent novel-view images than Zero-1-to-3. The promotion is significant for various complex and challenging scenes, involving insects, humans, transparent objects, and stacked multiple objects etc. The project page is at https://cascadezero123.github.io/.
