Frozen Scenes, Shifting Winners: Configuration Fragility in Text-to-3D Evaluation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.00447v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Can a text-to-3D leaderboard change when every generated scene stays fixed? We audit this question for rendered-image evaluation, where camera settings and caption wording become part of the measurement protocol. Across 300 frozen scenes from six generators, we vary eight render and caption factors for 19 alignment evaluators plus one perceptual-quality control, then test four targeted scene degradations. Peak configuration variance exceeds between-generator variance for 17/19 alignment evaluators, with prompt-bootstrap lower bounds above 1 for 11/19. Rankings are more stable than scores, yet 18/19 evaluators change their point-estimate winner under some configuration. Pairwise protocol margin envelopes show which comparisons keep their direc
