原文アブストラクト
Active mapping requires a robot to select camera viewpoints that efficiently reconstruct an unknown 3D scene. To reason about unobserved regions, recent systems use pretrained occupancy networks as world models that complete missing geometry. The predicted structure contributes to expected coverage gain and constrains feasible robot motion. Consequently, occupancy errors can change both what the robot chooses to explore and where it is able to move. We diagnose these effects by holding the planner fixed and varying only the occupancy representation provided to it. We consider planning without completion, with learned occupancy, with false positives removed by a ground truth oracle, with false negatives restored by an oracle, and with ground truth occupancy. Our experiments show that correcting false positives or false negatives alone does not consistently improve final coverage. This finding reveals a gap between occupancy accuracy and downstream planning performance. Ground truth occupancy provides a much larger improvement in coverage efficiency than in endpoint coverage, suggesting that planning and reachability remain important bottlenecks even when the geometric world model is accurate. Based on these findings, we introduce a dynamic filtering strategy that preserves predictions in unexplored space while suppressing repeatedly unsupported occupancy using online observations. Preliminary examples show that this strategy can redirect viewpoint selection toward reachable surfaces that would otherwise remain unobserved.
