We study 3D point cloud reconstruction from multiple partially observed 2D projections. Given two or more projections of an unknown 3D point cloud, together with cross-view point correspondencesand visibility information, our goal is to recover a consistent 3D configuration when different views contain different subsets of points. We propose 3D Multi-Perspective Embedding (3DMPE), an optimizationbased, training-free method that reconstructs the 3D point cloud and, in the variable-projection setting, jointly estimates the projection maps.  \n3DMPE extends Multi-Perspective Simultaneous Embedding to accommodate missing points and incomplete pairwise distance information across views. We consider both fixed-projection and variable-projection settings. Unlike learning-based reconstruction methods that infer shape from raw images and often depend on training data, 3DMPE operates on geometric observations with established correspondences and does not require category-specific training. Experiments on ShapeNet and Pix3D evaluate reconstruction quality using Chamfer Distance, Earth Mover Distance, and RMSE-Optimize-Align (ROA), and examine the effectsof initialization, the number of views, point visibility, and several noise regimes, including noisy distances and erroneous correspondences. The results demonstrate that 3DMPE can effectively reconstruct point clouds from partial multi-view geometric observations.  \nKeywords: 3D Point Cloud Reconstruction · Multi-View Geometry · 3D Reconstruction  \n1 Introduction  \nUnderstanding the 3D structure of objects from limited observations is a fundamental problem in computer vision, with applications in robotics, autonomous driving, precision agriculture, gaming, and virtual and augmented reality. The 3D reconstruction problem aims to infer the three-dimensional structure of an object or scene from one or more 2D images. In general, this problem is ill-posed and highly sensitive to noise and missing information. In the noise-free case, the problem is called triangulation [15] . Yet, noise is unavoidable. Our setup assesses how different noise regimes affect our algorithm’s performance.  \n2 Vahan Huroyan, Md Rahat-uz-Zaman, and Stephen Kobourov  \nFig. 1: Full pipeline of 3DMPE. Given multiple 2D snapshots and the visibility vectors (1 if a point is present in a view and 0 otherwise), in this example 3, but the algorithm works for arbitrary number of inputs, we first compute the pairwise distance matrices for each snapshot the algorithm reconstructs the 3D point cloud.  \nIn practice, 3D reconstruction is often addressed using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) pipelines [3, 13 , 31], which process raw images through feature detection, correspondence matching, camera pose estimation, and triangulation. Modern systems such as COLMAP [36] provide end-to-end implementations of this pipeline and are widely used in practice.  \nIn this work, we study a more structured reconstruction problem corresponding to the geometric recovery stage after point correspondences have been established. Specifically, the input consists of multiple partially observed 2D projections of an unknown 3D point cloud, together with point-to-point correspondences and visibility information across views. A point may be absent from some views because of occlusion or limited visibility, and consequently the pairwise distance information is incomplete. We do not address feature detection or correspondence estimation from raw images; instead, we study how accurately the underlying 3D point cloud can be recovered once these geometric
