contents Recent advancements in open-vocabulary 3D scene understanding heavily rely on 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) to register vision-language features into 3D space. However, we identify two critical limitations in these approaches: the spatial ambiguity arising from unstructured, overlapping Gaussians which necessitates probabilistic feature registration, and the multi-level semantic ambiguity caused by pooling features over object-level masks, which dilutes fine-grained details. To address these challenges, we present a novel framework that leverages Sparse Voxel Rasterization (SVRaster) as a structured, disjoint geometry representation. By regularizing SVRaster with monocular depth and normal priors, we establish a stable geometric foundation. This enables a deterministic, confidence-aware feature registration process and suppresses the semantic bleeding artifact common in 3DGS. Furthermore, we resolve multi-level ambiguity by exploiting the emerging dense alignment properties of foundation model AM-RADIO, avoiding the computational overhead of hierarchical training methods. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on Open Vocabulary 3D Object Retrieval and Point Cloud Understanding benchmarks, particularly excelling on fine-grained queries where registration methods typically fail.
