• Authors: Xiaobo Hu, Youfang Lin, Shuo Wang, Zhihao Wu, Kai Lv
• Abstract summary: We introduce an Agent-Centric Relation Graph (ACRG) for learning the visual representation based on the relationships in the environment. ACRG is a highly effective structure that consists of two relationships, i.e., the horizontal relationship among objects and the distance relationship between the agent and objects. With the above graphs, the agent can perceive the environment and output navigation actions.

• Abstract: Object visual navigation aims to steer an agent toward a target object based on visual observations. It is highly desirable to reasonably perceive the environment and accurately control the agent. In the navigation task, we introduce an Agent-Centric Relation Graph (ACRG) for learning the visual representation based on the relationships in the environment. ACRG is a highly effective structure that consists of two relationships, i.e., the horizontal relationship among objects and the distance relationship between the agent and objects . On the one hand, we design the Object Horizontal Relationship Graph (OHRG) that stores the relative horizontal location among objects. On the other hand, we propose the Agent-Target Distance Relationship Graph (ATDRG) that enables the agent to perceive the distance between the target and objects. For ATDRG, we utilize image depth to obtain the target distance and imply the vertical location to capture the distance relationship among objects in the vertical direction. With the above graphs, the agent can perceive the environment and output navigation actions. Experimental results in the artificial environment AI2-THOR demonstrate that ACRG significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in unseen testing environments.

  Given an object of interest, visual navigation aims to reach the object's location based on a sequence of partial observations. To this end, an agent needs to 1) learn a piece of certain knowledge about the relations of object categories in the world during training and 2) look for the target object based on the pre-learned object category relations and its moving trajectory in the current unseen environment. We propose a Category Relation Graph (CRG) to learn the knowledge of object category layout relations and a Temporal-Spatial-Region (TSR) attention architecture to perceive the long-term spatial-temporal dependencies of objects helping the

  "Zero-shot" means that the target the agent needs to find is not trained during the training phase. We propose the Class-Independent Relationship Network (CIRN) to address the issue of coupling navigation ability with target features during training. Our method outperforms the current state-of-the-art approaches in the zero-shot object goal visual navigation task.

  Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection is a fundamental visual task aiming at localizing and recognizing interactions between humans and objects. We propose a novel method to exploit this information, through the scene graph, for the Human-Object Interaction (SG2HOI) detection task. Our method, SG2HOI, incorporates the SG information in two ways: (1) we embed a scene graph into a global context clue, serving as the scene-specific environmental context; and (2) we build a relation-aware message-passing module to gather relationships from objects' neighborhood and transfer them into interactions.

  The ability to navigate like a human towards a language-guided target from anywhere in a 3D embodied environment is one of the 'holy grail' goals of intelligent robots. Most visual navigation benchmarks focus on navigating toward a target from a fixed starting point, guided by an elaborate set of instructions that depicts step-by-step. This approach deviates from real-world problems in which human-only describes what the object and its surrounding look like and asks the robot to start navigation from anywhere.

  We consider the problem of Human-Object Interaction (HOI) Detection, which aims to locate and recognize HOI instances in the form of human, action, object> in images. We argue that multi-level consistencies among objects, actions and interactions are strong cues for generating semantic representations of rare or previously unseen HOIs. Our model takes visual features of candidate human-object pairs and word embeddings of HOI labels as inputs, maps them into visual-semantic joint embedding space and obtains detection results by measuring their similarities.
