• Abstract summary: ConceptGraphs is an open-vocabulary graph-structured representation for 3D scenes. It is built by leveraging 2D foundation models and fusing their output to 3D by multi-view association. We demonstrate the utility of this representation through a number of downstream planning tasks.

• Abstract: For robots to perform a wide variety of tasks, they require a 3D representation of the world that is semantically rich, yet compact and efficient for task-driven perception and planning. Recent approaches have attempted to leverage features from large vision-language models to encode semantics in 3D representations. However, these approaches tend to produce maps with per-point feature vectors, which do not scale well in larger environments, nor do they contain semantic spatial relationships between entities in the environment, which are useful for downstream planning. In this work, we propose ConceptGraphs, an open-vocabulary graph-structured representation for 3D scenes. ConceptGraphs is built by leveraging 2D foundation models and fusing their output to 3D by multi-view association. The resulting representations generalize to novel semantic classes, without the need to collect large 3D datasets or finetune models. We demonstrate the utility of this representation through a number of downstream planning tasks that are specified through abstract (language) prompts and require complex reasoning over spatial and semantic concepts.

  Existing CLIP-based open-vocabulary methods successfully perform 3D object retrieval with simple (bare) queries. We propose a modular approach called BBQ which constructs 3D scene spatial graph representation with metric edges. BBQ employs robust DINO-powered associations to form 3D objects, an advanced raycasting algorithm to project them to 2D, and a vision-language model to describe them as graph nodes.

  We describe an approach to predict open-vocabulary 3D semantic voxel occupancy map from input 2D images. The architecture consists of a 2D-3D encoder together with occupancy prediction and 3D-language heads. The output is a dense voxel map of 3D grounded language embeddings enabling a range of open-vocabulary tasks.

  Open-world instance-level scene understanding aims to locate and recognize unseen object categories that are not present in the annotated dataset. This task is challenging because the model needs to both localize novel 3D objects and infer their semantic categories. We propose to harness pre-trained vision-language (VL) foundation models that encode extensive knowledge from image-text pairs to generate captions for 3D scenes.

  We propose a real-time framework that incrementally builds a consistent 3D semantic scene graph of a scene given an RGB image sequence. Our method consists of a novel incremental entity estimation pipeline and a scene graph prediction network. The proposed network estimates 3D semantic scene graphs with iterative message passing using multi-view and geometric features extracted from the scene entities.

  3D semantic scene graph (3DSSG) prediction in the point cloud is challenging since the 3D point cloud only captures geometric structures with limited semantics compared to 2D images. We propose Visual-Linguistic Semantics Assisted Training scheme that can significantly empower 3DSSG prediction models with discrimination about long-tailed and ambiguous semantic relations.

Specifically, we exploit naturally-existed correspondences in 2D and 3D scenarios, and build well-aligned and instance-based text-image-point proxies from those complex scenarios.

  We focus on scene graphs, a data structure that organizes the entities of a scene in a graph. We propose a learned method that regresses a scene graph from the point cloud of a scene. We show the application of our method in a domain-agnostic retrieval task, where graphs serve as an intermediate representation for 3D-3D and 2D-3D matching.
