We present Uni3D, a unified and scalable 3D pretraining framework for large-scale 3D representation learning, and explore its limits at the scale of one billion parameters. Uni3D uses a 2D initialized ViT end-to-end pretrained to align the 3D point cloud features with the image-text aligned features. Via the simple architecture and pretext task, Uni3D can leverage abundant 2D pretrained models as initialization and image-text aligned models as the target, unlocking the great potential of 2D models and scaling-up strategies to the 3D world. We efficiently scale up Uni3D to one billion parameters, and set new records on a broad range of 3D tasks.

We are committed to open-sourcing Uni3D related materials, including:

• Extended Uni3D to a 3D metric (Uni3D-score) for enhanced semantic coherence in text-to-3D tasks. For details, see GeoDream.
• The weights of models range from 6M to 1B parameters.
• Evaluation code
• Evaluation data
• Pretraining code
• Pretraining data

We hope to foster the growth of our community through open-sourcing and promoting collaboration👬. Let's step towards multimodal intelligence together🍻.

We evaluate the zero-shot 3D classification performance on three datasets: Objaverse-LVIS, ModelNet40 and ScanObjectNN.

1. Please refer to DATASETS.md for evaluation dataset preparation.
2. [Recommended 🤗] Download the clip model and put it in /path/to/clip_model folder.
3. Download model zoo weights and put them in /path/to/checkpoints folder.
4. Run bash scripts/inference.sh [scale] to evaluate the model on the above datasets, e.g., bash scripts/inference.sh giant.

1. Please refer to DATASETS.md for pre-train dataset preparation.
2. [Recommended 🤗] Download the clip model and put it in /path/to/clip_model folder.
3. [Recommended 🤗] Download the initialization model and put it in /path/to/init_model folder.
4. Run bash scripts/pretrain.sh to pre-train the model on ensemble datasets.

Uni3D is built using the awesome EVA, OpenCLIP, timm, DeepSpeed, ULIP and OpenShape.
