Not All Relations Rotate Alike: Transformation-Aware Decoupling for Viewpoint-Robust 3D Scene Graph Generation

Authors: Jingjun SunChaowei WangZhirui LiuJiaxu TianMing YangYaoxing WangShan Gao

Abstract

3D Scene Graph Generation (3DSGG) represents 3D scenes as structured object-relation-object graphs, providing a compact relational abstraction for spatial understanding. In embodied intelligence settings, the same 3D scene may be observed by agents from viewpoints that differ by yaw rotations. However, current 3DSGG models often fail to produce relation predictions that follow the expected transformation behavior under such viewpoint shifts. This behavior reveals an empirical mismatch related to predicate-level transformation heterogeneity: directional predicates such as left, front, right, and behind should transform with the observation frame, whereas most contact, support, and semantic predicates such as standing on and attached to should remain stable. To reduce this mismatch, we propose Transformation-Aware Decoupling (TAD), a viewpoint-robust 3DSGG framework that decouples relation reasoning according to predicate transformation behavior and is supported by viewpoint-stable object representations. TAD decomposes relation reasoning into two parts: one learns cues that should stay stable across viewpoints, while the other learns directional cues that should change with the observation frame. The two parts are merged for standard multi-label predicate prediction. Transformation-specific descriptors and group-aware auxiliary supervision encourage the two branches to capture complementary relation cues. Extensive experiments on 3DSSG show that TAD achieves state-of-the-art robustness under yaw viewpoint changes without training-time rotation augmentation, while maintaining competitive performance under the standard benchmark.

OP3DSG: Open-Vocabulary Part-Aware 3D Scene Graph Generation for Real-World Environments

3D scene graphs (3DSGs) provide a compact and structured abstraction of 3D environments. Although advances in foundation models have enabled open-vocabulary 3DSG generation, existing approaches remain object-centric and encode limited relational information -- restricting their applicability in real-world scenarios that require fine-grained understanding. We propose OP3DSG, an open-vocabulary part-aware 3DSG generation framework that constructs unified graphs that jointly model objects, interactive parts, spatial relations, functional relations, and affordances. OP3DSG integrates object-part knowledge-guided detection with part-aware 3D fusion to preserve small and interaction-relevant components, and employs a geometry-initialized prior graph with LLM-based refinement to reduce spurious relational predictions while enabling efficient graph construction. To systematically evaluate unified 3D scene graph construction, we introduce UniGraph3D, a benchmark designed for part-aware perception and multi-level relational reasoning. Experimental results show that OP3DSG achieves state-of-the-art performance and demonstrates its effectiveness as a perception backbone in diverse real-world robotics tasks.

DeWorldSG: Depth-Aware 3D Semantic Scene Graph Generation via World-Model Priors

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.

SGFormer++: Semantic Graph Transformer for Incremental 3D Scene Graph Generation

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.
