Object-Centric Representation Learning for Enhanced 3D Scene Graph Prediction

KunHo Heo, GiHyun Kim, SuYeon Kim et al.

3D Semantic Scene Graph Prediction aims to detect objects and their semantic relationships in 3D scenes, and has emerged as a crucial technology for robotics and AR/VR applications. While previous research has addressed dataset limitations and explored various approaches including Open-Vocabulary settings, they frequently fail to optimize the representational capacity of object and relationship features, showing excessive reliance on Graph Neural Networks despite insufficient discriminative capability. In this work, we demonstrate through extensive analysis that the quality of object features plays a critical role in determining overall scene graph accuracy. To address this challenge, we design a highly discriminative object feature encoder and employ a contrastive pretraining strategy that decouples object representation learning from the scene graph prediction. This design not only enhances object classification accuracy but also yields direct improvements in relationship prediction. Notably, when plugging in our pretrained encoder into existing frameworks, we observe substantial performance improvements across all evaluation metrics. Additionally, whereas existing approaches have not fully exploited the integration of relationship information, we effectively combine both geometric and semantic features to achieve superior relationship prediction. Comprehensive experiments on the 3DSSG dataset demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods.

ParTY: Part-Guidance for Expressive Text-to-Motion Synthesis

KunHo Heo, SuYeon Kim, Yonghyun Gwon et al.

Text-to-motion synthesis aims to generate natural and expressive human motions from textual descriptions. While existing approaches primarily focus on generating holistic motions from text descriptions, they struggle to accurately reflect actions involving specific body parts. Recent part-wise motion generation methods attempt to resolve this but face two critical limitations: (i) they lack explicit mechanisms for aligning textual semantics with individual body parts, and (ii) they often generate incoherent full-body motions due to integrating independently generated part motions. To overcome these issues and resolve the fundamental trade-off in existing methods, we propose ParTY, a novel framework that enhances part expressiveness while generating coherent full-body motions. ParTY comprises: (1) Part-Guided Network, which first generates part motions to obtain part guidance, then uses it to generate holistic motions; (2) Part-aware Text Grounding, which diversely transforms text embeddings and appropriately aligns them with each body part; and (3) Holistic-Part Fusion, which adaptively fuses holistic motions and part motions. Extensive experiments, including part-level and coherence-level evaluations, demonstrate that ParTY achieves substantial improvements over previous methods.
