内容：

We are in the era of foundation models, in which large language models and visual-language models have enabled many practical applications, and this trend will continue to evolve. One message from the community is that the scale of clean data and model size are more important than data representations and training objectives. However, this creates a fundamental issue in the 3D domain, because we will not have sufficient large-scale 3D data to learn 3D foundation models. This talk will cover our recent efforts to tackle this problem. I will talk about how to learn 3D foundation models from image/video foundation models by developing generalizable 3D representations that possess efficient neural rendering capabilities, learning 3D foundation models from real images, and distilling 3D knowledge from video foundation models. I will also talk about opportunities and challenges in learning foundation models grouned in physics and geometry.
