| contents | Establishing dense correspondence across 3D shapes is crucial for fundamental downstream tasks, including texture transfer, shape interpolation, and robotic manipulation. However, learning these mappings without manual supervision remains a formidable challenge, particularly under severe non-isometric deformations and in inter-class settings where geometric cues are ambiguous. Conventional functional map methods, while elegant, typically struggle in these regimes due to their reliance on isometry. To address this, we present GLASS, a framework that bridges the gap by integrating geometric spectral analysis with rich semantic priors from vision-language foundation models. GLASS introduces three key innovations: (i) a view-consistent strategy that enables robust multi-view visual feature extraction from powerful vision foundation models; (ii) the injection of language embeddings into vertex descriptors via zero-shot 3D segmentation, capturing high-level part semantics; and (iii) a graph-assisted contrastive loss that enforces structural consistency between regions (e.g., source's head'' $\leftrightarrow$ target's head'') by leveraging geodesic and topological relationships between regions. This design allows GLASS to learn globally coherent and semantically consistent maps without ground-truth supervision. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GLASS achieves state-of-the-art performance across all regimes, maintaining high accuracy on standard near-isometric tasks while significantly advancing performance in challenging settings. Specifically, it achieves average geodesic errors of 0.21, 4.5, and 5.6 on the inter-class benchmark SNIS and non-isometric benchmarks SMAL and TOPKIDS, reducing errors from URSSM baselines of 0.49, 6.0, and 8.9 by 57%, 25%, and 37%, respectively. |
