Researchers from Hong Kong Baptist University developed MVAP-G, a generative model capable of producing imperceptible, geometrically consistent adversarial perturbations across multiple views for 3D foundation models like VGGT. MVAP-G degrades 3D reconstruction quality, camera pose estimation, and depth prediction in a single feed-forward pass, outperforming iterative and universal attack methods in effectiveness and efficiency.

Key insights

  • Adversarial perturbations need explicit cross-view consistency mechanisms to effectively attack multi-view 3D foundation models.
  • A generative transformer architecture can efficiently produce geometrically coherent adversarial examples in a single feed-forward pass, circumventing the limitations of iterative methods.
  • Targeting the 3D point cloud reconstruction through adversarial loss can implicitly degrade other geometric outputs like depth maps and camera poses in a 3D foundation model.
