## Abstract (arXiv)

3D object inpainting is commonly achieved via multi-view 2D image completion, yet independently inpainted views often suffer from cross-view inconsistencies, leading to blurred textures, geometric discontinuities, and visual artifacts in the reconstructed 3D objects. To overcome these limitations, we propose ObjFiller-3D, a novel method designed for the completion and editing of high-quality and consistent 3D objects. Instead of relying on sparse-view editing or per-view 2D inpainting, our method jointly optimizes a sequence of densely sampled views along a 360^circ trajectory, enabling global coherence across viewpoints. We design a new framework with three complementary components: a Temporal-Driven Generative Encoder for modeling dense-view dependencies, a Semantic-Aware Completion Encoder for object-level inpainting, and a Cycle-Consistent 3D Encoder that enforces global coherence through a closed-loop formulation. Our framework also supports reference-guided 3D inpainting, allowing fine-grained control over appearance. Extensive experiments on diverse datasets demonstrate that ObjFiller-3D significantly outperforms prior methods, achieving higher reconstruction fidelity (PSNR 26.6 vs. 15.9 of NeRFiller) and perceptual quality (LPIPS 0.19 vs. 0.25 of Instant3dit), while reducing reconstruction time from over 40 minutes to under 10 minutes. These results highlight the effectiveness and practical potential of our approach for real-world 3D editing applications.
