We propose UniSeg3D, a unified 3D scene understanding framework that achieves panoptic, semantic, instance, interactive, referring, and open-vocabulary segmentation tasks within a single model. Most previous 3D segmentation approaches are typically tailored to a specific task, limiting their understanding of 3D scenes to a task-specific perspective. In contrast, the proposed method unifies six tasks into unified representations processed by the same Transformer. It facilitates inter-task knowledge sharing, thereby promoting comprehensive 3D scene understanding. To take advantage of multi-task unification, we enhance performance by establishing explicit inter-task associations. Specifically, we design knowledge distillation and contrastive learning methods to transfer task-specific knowledge across different tasks. Experiments on three benchmarks, including ScanNet20, ScanRefer, and ScanNet200, demonstrate that the UniSeg3D consistently outperforms current SOTA methods, even those specialized for individual tasks. We hope UniSeg3D can serve as a solid unified baseline and inspire future work. Code and models are available at https://github.com/dk-liang/UniSeg3D.

Delivery Time Estimation (DTE) is a crucial component of the e-commerce supply chain that predicts delivery time based on merchant information, sending address, receiving address, and payment time. Accurate DTE can boost platform revenue and reduce customer complaints and refunds. However, the imbalanced nature of industrial data impedes previous models from reaching satisfactory prediction performance. Although imbalanced regression methods can be applied to the DTE task, we experimentally find that they improve the prediction performance of low-shot data samples at the sacrifice of overall performance. To address the issue, we propose a novel Dual Graph Multitask framework for imbalanced Delivery Time Estimation (DGM-DTE). Our framework first classifies package delivery time as head and tail data. Then, a dual graph-based model is utilized to learn representations of the two categories of data. In particular, DGM-DTE re-weights the embedding of tail data by estimating its kernel density. We fuse two graph-based representations to capture both high- and low-shot data representations. Experiments on real-world Taobao logistics datasets demonstrate the superior performance of DGM-DTE compared to baselines.
