In this paper, we propose SGFormer++, a novel Semantic Graph Transformer for 3D scene graph generation (SGG), which aims to parse point cloud scenes into semantic structural graphs, where nodes denote detected object instances and edges encode their pairwise relationships, with the core challenge lying in modeling complex global scene structure. While existing graph convolutional network (GCN)-based methods suffer from over-smoothing and limited receptive fields, SGFormer++ leverages Transformer layers as its backbone to enable global message passing. Specifically, we introduce two key components tailored for 3D SGG: (1) a Graph Embedding Layer++ that efficiently integrates edge-aware global context with linear computational complexity, and (2) a Semantic Injection Layer++ that enriches visual features with linguistic priors from large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs), boosting semantic representation without introducing extra trainable parameters. To further address the practical challenge of incremental SGG (I-SGG), where new relationship categories arrive sequentially, we equip SGFormer++ with a novel Spatial-guided Feature Adapter, which calibrates predicate features using subject-object spatial geometry to counter scale variation, and a Cascaded Binary Prediction Head that mitigates catastrophic forgetting via task-incremental classifier expansion and logit distillation. Extensive experiments on the 3DSSG benchmark demonstrate that SGFormer++ achieves state-of-the-art performance in both standard and incremental settings: it yields a significant 4.49% absolute improvement in Predicate A@1 under the incremental setting.

We present DeWorldSG, a novel framework that generates spatio-temporally robust 3D Semantic Scene Graphs from RGB-D sequences. Existing methods often struggle to construct reliable 3D scene graphs due to unstable 3D object representations and missing relations caused by frame-wise inference. DeWorldSG addresses these issues by estimating instance-level geometric 3D Gaussian distributions through depth-guided filtering and representing each object as a probabilistic 3D node rather than a single projected point. To mitigate relational sparsity from frame-wise inference, our framework further aggregates spatiotemporal evidence across object pairs and refines relations using contextual priors derived from a world model (V-JEPA 2). Experiments on the 3DSSG and ReplicaSSG datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art (SoTA) performance in both object and predicate prediction, while producing temporally consistent scene structures. In particular, our method improves triplet recall by 77.4% and predicate recall by 23.2% over prior SoTA approaches, making it suitable for robotic manipulation and AR applications. Our code and models are open-sourced.

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.
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.
