• Abstract: Visual Question Answering (VQA) has witnessed tremendous progress in recent years. However, most efforts only focus on the 2D image question answering tasks. In this paper, we present the first attempt at extending VQA to the 3D domain, which can facilitate artificial intelligence's perception of 3D real-world scenarios. Different from image based VQA, 3D Question Answering (3DQA) takes the color point cloud as input and requires both appearance and 3D geometry comprehension ability to answer the 3D-related questions. To this end, we propose a novel transformer-based 3DQA framework \textbf{``3DQA-TR"}, which consists of two encoders for exploiting the appearance and geometry information, respectively. The multi-modal information of appearance, geometry, and the linguistic question can finally attend to each other via a 3D-Linguistic Bert to predict the target answers. To verify the effectiveness of our proposed 3DQA framework, we further develop the first 3DQA dataset \textbf{``ScanQA"}, which builds on the ScanNet dataset and contains $\sim$6K questions, $\sim$30K answers for $806$ scenes. Extensive experiments on this dataset demonstrate the obvious superiority of our proposed 3DQA framework over existing VQA frameworks, and the effectiveness of our major designs. Our code and dataset will be made publicly available to facilitate the research in this direction.

• Bridging the Gap between 2D and 3D Visual Question Answering: A Fusion Approach for 3D VQA [6.697298321551588]
  In 3D Visual Question Answering (3D VQA), the scarcity of fully annotated data and limited visual content diversity hampers the generalization to novel scenes and 3D concepts. We propose question-conditional 2D view selection procedure, pinpointing semantically relevant 2D inputs for crucial visual clues. We then integrate this 2D knowledge into the 3D-VQA system via a two-branch Transformer structure.

  We introduce the task of 3D-aware VQA, which focuses on challenging questions that require a compositional reasoning over the 3D structure of visual scenes. We propose PO3D-VQA, a 3D-aware VQA model that marries two powerful ideas: probabilistic neural symbolic program execution for reasoning and deep neural networks with 3D generative representations of objects for robust visual recognition. Our experimental results show our model PO3D-VQA outperforms existing methods significantly, but we still observe a significant performance gap compared to 2D VQA benchmarks.

  Training models to apply common-sense linguistic knowledge and visual concepts from 2D images to 3D scene understanding is a promising direction that researchers have only recently started to explore. We propose a novel 3D pre-training Vision-Language method, namely Multi-CLIP, that enables a model to learn language-grounded and transferable 3D scene point cloud representations.

Based upon 650 scenes from ScanNet, we provide a dataset centered around 6.8k unique situations, along with 20.4k descriptions and 33.4k diverse reasoning questions for these situations.
