We study Generated Contents Enrichment (GCE), a conditional image-generation task in which a sparse scene description is first enriched through an explicit scene representation and then rendered into semantically richer visual content. Conventional image-generation systems can produce visually realistic outputs from limited scene descriptions, but the added content is usually implicit in the generator rather than represented as an inspectable intermediate structure. In contrast, GCE seeks to make scene enrichment explicit at the scene-representation level while examining its visual consequences during generation, with the goal of encouraging generated content that is visually plausible, structurally coherent, and semantically richer than the sparse input. To instantiate GCE, we propose a jointly trained adversarial framework that enriches scene graphs by modeling object semantics and inter-object relations. Our approach first represents the input description as a scene graph, where nodes model objects and edges capture inter-object relations. The framework uses graph convolutional networks to predict additional objects and their relations to the existing scene. Finally, the enriched scene graph is passed through the downstream image-generation pipeline to generate the corresponding visual content. We evaluate the framework with proxy scene graph enrichment metrics, image-quality comparisons, qualitative examples, and user studies on the Visual Genome dataset.
Learning-driven Scene Graph Generation (SGG) models excel on frequent relation types but degrade sharply under annotation sparsity, failing to capture reliable visual commonsense knowledge. We propose a model-agnostic, semantically-guided knowledge refinement framework that systematically mines commonsense-grounded constraints from training data - capturing spatial, functional, and qualitative relational regularities - and uses general declarative commonsense reasoning to correct and refine ranked SGG predictions at inference time. The framework requires no manual rule authoring, no model retraining, and transfers across datasets and architectures. On three standard benchmarks, we obtain consistent improvements over strong baselines, demonstrating that structured visual commonsense reasoning over deep scene semantics is a practical and effective complement to purely learning-based scene graph generation.
Scene graphs (SGs) represent objects and their relationships as structured graphs, enabling applications in image generation, robotics, and 3D understanding. Recent work suggests that conditioning image generation on scene graphs improves compositional fidelity compared to text-only prompting. However, since users typically provide text rather than structured graphs, a key challenge is to generate scene graphs from natural language. Prior work on discrete diffusion has demonstrated success in generating generic graphs such as molecules and circuits, but fails to account for the hierarchical structure and strong dependencies between objects, edges, and relations in scene graphs. We address this limitation by introducing a dependency-aware, hierarchically constrained discrete diffusion model for scene graph generation. Our approach decouples structure and semantics across the forward and reverse processes, enabling the model to capture conditional dependencies. At inference time, we perform training-free conditioning to sample text-aligned scene graphs. We evaluate our method on standard SG benchmarks and demonstrate improvements over both continuous and discrete graph generation baselines across graph and layout metrics. When fed to downstream image generation, our approach yields improved compositional alignment compared to text-to-image models, particularly in multi-object scenarios.
Scene Graph Generation (SGG) unifies object localization and visual relationship reasoning by predicting boxes and subject-predicate-object triples. Yet most pipelines treat SGG as a one-shot, deterministic classification problem rather than a genuinely progressive, generative task. We propose FlowSG, which recasts SGG as continuous-time transport on a hybrid discrete-continuous state: starting from a noised graph, the model progressively grows an image-conditioned scene graph through constraint-aware refinements that jointly synthesize nodes (objects) and edges (predicates). Specifically, we first leverage a VQ-VAE to quantize a scene graph (e.g., continuous visual features) into compact, predictable tokens; a graph Transformer then (i) predicts a conditional velocity field to transport continuous geometry (boxes) and (ii) updates discrete posteriors for categorical tokens (object features and predicate labels), coupling semantics and geometry via flow-conditioned message aggregation. Training combines flow-matching losses for geometry with a discrete-flow objective for tokens, yielding few-step inference and plug-and-play compatibility with standard detectors and segmenters. Extensive experiments on VG and PSG under closed- and open-vocabulary protocols show consistent gains in predicate R/mR and graph-level metrics, validating the mixed discrete-continuous generative formulation over one-shot classification baselines, with an average improvement of about 3 points over the state-of-the-art USG-Par.
