## Abstract (arXiv)

Part-level 3D assets are essential for editing, reassembly, and interaction, yet recovering such structure from a single image remains challenging due to occlusion, ambiguous boundaries, and the need for coherent multi-part reasoning. Existing approaches struggle to achieve both controllable part-level generation and coherent multi-part structure, as part identity and spatial allocation are typically inferred implicitly. We present Seg3DParts, a segmentation-grounded framework for controllable part-level 3D generation from a single image. By treating segmentation as an explicit grounding signal, our method defines part identity during generation, enabling each component to be anchored to a corresponding image region. To ensure coherent assemblies, we introduce structured cross-part interaction that allows components to exchange global context throughout the generative process. As a result, Seg3DParts directly generates well-aligned part meshes in a shared canonical space without post-hoc alignment, supporting flexible and controllable decomposition. We further introduce PartObjectNet, a large-scale dataset with over 200K objects and 1M annotated parts. Experiments demonstrate that Seg3DParts achieves superior geometry quality, cross-part coherence, and part-level controllability over existing methods.
