HierRelTriple: Guiding Indoor Layout Generation with Hierarchical Relationship Triplet Losses
This addresses the challenge of physically plausible indoor scene generation for applications like virtual reality and architecture, representing an incremental advance over existing methods.
The paper tackles the problem of generating realistic indoor layouts by capturing complex spatial relationships, resulting in over 15% improvement in spatial-relation metrics and reduced collisions compared to state-of-the-art methods.
We present a hierarchical triplet-based indoor relationship learning method, coined HierRelTriple, with a focus on spatial relationship learning. Existing approaches often depend on manually defined spatial rules or simplified pairwise representations, which fail to capture complex, multi-object relationships found in real scenarios and lead to overcrowded or physically implausible arrangements. We introduce HierRelTriple, a hierarchical relational triplets modeling framework that first partitions functional regions and then automatically extracts three levels of spatial relationships: object-to-region (O2R), object-to-object (O2O), and corner-to-corner (C2C). By representing these relationships as geometric triplets and employing approaches based on Delaunay Triangulation to establish spatial priors, we derive IoU loss between denoised and ground truth triplets and integrate them seamlessly into the diffusion denoising process. The introduction of the joint formulation of inter-object distances, angular orientations, and spatial relationships enhances the physical realism of the generated scenes. Extensive experiments on unconditional layout synthesis, floorplan-conditioned layout generation, and scene rearrangement demonstrate that HierRelTriple improves spatial-relation metrics by over 15% and substantially reduces collisions and boundary violations compared to state-of-the-art methods.
