Procedura: Agentic 3D Modeling with Procedural Control

Native 3D generators now recover impressive mesh geometry from a single image. However, a dense mesh stays soft where a machined object should be sharp, it carries no part decomposition, and it exposes no parameter a user could edit. To address this, we explore the paradigm of 3D shape as code, leveraging and scaling the coding ability of an LLM for 3D modeling. We introduce Procedura, a novel 3D modeling agent framework that writes an object as a procedural assembly, a parametric program whose named parts are joined by typed, machine-checkable mates. From a text prompt, the agent plans the object as an assembly graph and writes the program part by part, solving each placement from the mated frames rather than guessing it, and admitting a part only once compile, mate, and connectivity checks pass. A decoupled vision critic then refines the assembly one diagnosed fix at a time. Moreover, the same graph carries per-part materials and a simulator-validated articulation. We evaluate on P3D-Bench under its assembly judge, and with the same judge on MechBench-36, our hard-surface benchmark. On both, Procedura outperforms state-of-the-art native 3D generators and every prior 3D-code agent on judged quality, produces the sharpest edges of any method we evaluate, and is the only one whose output is an editable, part-structured program.

P3D-Bench: Benchmarking MLLMs for Parametric 3D Generation and Structural Reasoning

Multimodal large language models can write code to produce complex programs as well as use programs to do 3D modeling, which opens up a new avenue for 3D generation powered by their priors, world knowledge and reasoning. Yet existing benchmarks rarely evaluate 3D modeling through code. Such modeling demands more than runnable code: from a text or visual specification, a model must generate a parametric 3D program that is geometrically precise, semantically aligned and assembly-consistent. We introduce P3D-Bench, a benchmark for parametric 3D generation. Unlike a 3D mesh, a parametric 3D program exposes explicit dimensions, construction operations and part relations, revealing whether a model recovers a design's structure, not just its appearance. Under a unified protocol, P3D-Bench covers three task families (Text-to-3D, Image-to-3D and Assembly-3D) and scores each output for executability, geometric fidelity, topology, text-grounded constraints, multiview semantic alignment and part-level structure. We evaluate frontier MLLMs and text-only LLMs on 400 text cases, 400 image cases and 203 annotated assemblies, with domain-specific models as reference points. Our extensive evaluation yields three findings. First, assemblies are the hardest setting, where models still fail to compose multiple parts into a coherent structure. Second, models can often recover the global shape and semantic identity of the target object, yet fail to reproduce the precise parametric geometry specified by the input. Third, part-level modeling remains weak on assemblies, where models recover neither the geometry of each part nor the right number of parts. These results position P3D-Bench as a benchmark for evaluating precise parametric geometry and part-level structure in parametric 3D generation.

DAPL: Integration of Positive and Negative Descriptions in Text-Based Person Search

Text-based person search (TBPS) aims to retrieve specific images of individuals from large datasets using textual descriptions. Existing TBPS methods focus primarily on identifying explicit positive attributes, often neglecting the critical role of negative descriptions. This oversight can lead to false positives, where images that should be excluded based on negative descriptions are incorrectly included, due to partial alignment with the positive criteria. To address this limitation, we propose the Dual Attribute Prompt Learning (DAPL) framework, which incorporates both positive and negative descriptions to improve the interpretative accuracy of vision-language models in TBPS tasks. DAPL combines Dual Image-Attribute Contrastive (DIAC) learning with Sensitive Image-Attribute Matching (SIAM) learning to enhance the detection of previously unseen attributes. Furthermore, to achieve a balance between coarse and fine-grained alignment of visual and textual embeddings, we introduce the Dynamic Token-wise Similarity (DTS) loss. This loss function refines the representation of both matching and non-matching descriptions at the token level, providing more precise and adaptable similarity assessments, and ultimately improving the accuracy of the matching process. Empirical results demonstrate that DAPL outperforms state-of-the-art methods, enhancing both precision and robustness in TBPS tasks.
