Single-image novel view synthesis remains challenging because the underlying 3D geometry is highly ambiguous. Recent diffusion-based approaches produce plausible results, but they often struggle to preserve the geometric structure and spatial coherence of foreground objects. We present GenNVS, a framework for geometry-enhanced novel view synthesis via a disentangled 3D prior. Specifically, GenNVS models foreground objects and the background with 3D Gaussian Splatting and aligns them through a coarse-to-fine geometric optimization process to form a unified 3D scene. This scene conditions a video diffusion model through the proposed Dual-Stream Masking mechanism, which guides synthesis by jointly exploiting rendered validity masks and geometry-aware warping. Experimental results show that GenNVS performs favorably against recent methods in both visual quality and geometric accuracy, while naturally supporting flexible scene editing.
This publication proposes a definition and a classification of agile software development approaches and analyses ten software development methods that can be characterized as being "agile" against the defined criterion.

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

The possibility of inferring high-dimensional data inference in a model that consists of a prior and an auxiliary differentiable constraint given some additional information is considered, thereby allowing a range of potential applications in adapting models to new domains and tasks.
