One-stage methods integrate a fixed-size set of learnable queries to jointly reason relational triplets. The challenge in one-stage methods stems from the issue of weak entanglement. We introduce UniQ, a Unified decoder with task-specific queries architecture.

• Abstract: Scene Graph Generation(SGG) is a scene understanding task that aims at identifying object entities and reasoning their relationships within a given image. In contrast to prevailing two-stage methods based on a large object detector (e.g., Faster R-CNN), one-stage methods integrate a fixed-size set of learnable queries to jointly reason relational triplets <subject, predicate, object>. This paradigm demonstrates robust performance with significantly reduced parameters and computational overhead. However, the challenge in one-stage methods stems from the issue of weak entanglement, wherein entities involved in relationships require both coupled features shared within triplets and decoupled visual features. Previous methods either adopt a single decoder for coupled triplet feature modeling or multiple decoders for separate visual feature extraction but fail to consider both. In this paper, we introduce UniQ, a Unified decoder with task-specific Queries architecture, where task-specific queries generate decoupled visual features for subjects, objects, and predicates respectively, and unified decoder enables coupled feature modeling within relational triplets. Experimental results on the Visual Genome dataset demonstrate that UniQ has superior performance to both one-stage and two-stage methods.

  Point scene understanding is a challenging task to process real-world scene point cloud. Recent state-of-the-art method first segments each object and then processes them independently with multiple stages for the different sub-tasks. We propose a novel Disentangled Object-Centric TRansformer (DOCTR) that explores object-centric representation.

  We present STEMD, a novel end-to-end framework that enhances the DETR-like paradigm for multi-frame 3D object detection. First, to model the inter-object spatial interaction and complex temporal dependencies, we introduce the spatial-temporal graph attention network. Finally, it poses a challenge for the network to distinguish between the positive query and other highly similar queries that are not the best match.

  TraCQ is a new formulation for scene graph generation that avoids the multi-task learning problem and the entity pair distribution. We employ a DETR-based encoder-decoder conditional queries to significantly reduce the entity label space as well. Experimental results show that TraCQ not only outperforms existing single-stage scene graph generation methods, it also beats many state-of-the-art two-stage methods on the Visual Genome dataset.

We show that this simple and efficient approach achieves better reconstruction performance than an equivalent real-valued autoencoder on simple multi-object datasets. We also show that it achieves competitive unsupervised object discovery performance to a SlotAttention model on two datasets, and manages to disentangle objects in a third dataset where SlotAttention fails - all while being 7-70 times faster to train.
