Abstract

3D scene graph generation requires understanding both object semantics and metric spatial relations. However, existing open-vocabulary methods often struggle with spatial predicates because language similarity reflects semantic co-occurrence rather than explicit geometry. We propose GHOST, a Geometry-constrained Hybrid diffusion framework for Open-vocabulary 3D Scene graph generaTion. GHOST jointly models continuous node geometry and discrete edge predicates, following a geometry-to-constraint-to-predicate denoising process to ensure geometrically consistent relation prediction. It introduces language-grounded constraint induction, which maps predicate embeddings to differentiable geometric constraints that guide both layout refinement and predicate reweighting. A Geometry-Topology Collaborative Denoiser further couples node and edge reasoning through noise-adaptive interaction and orientation-aware modeling. Experiments on 3DSSG demonstrate state-of-the-art performance in both closed-set and open-vocabulary settings, including over 17-point gains over RelationField on spatial predicates.

RelWitness: Open-Vocabulary 3D Scene Graph Generation with Visual-Geometric Relation Witnesses

Open-vocabulary 3D scene graph generation seeks to describe object instances and their relations with flexible natural-language predicates. The central difficulty is not only vocabulary expansion, but supervision reliability: relation annotations in 3D scene graph datasets are selective, and many valid object-pair relations are unannotated. We propose RelWitness, a framework for open-vocabulary 3D scene graph generation from posed RGB-D sequences under incomplete relation supervision. The key concept is a relation witness: a concrete visual-geometric cue that makes a relation observable in the captured scene. Support relations require contact and vertical ordering; containment requires enclosure; proximity requires metric closeness; orientation requires facing direction; and stable relations should persist across views where both objects are visible. RelWitness constructs relation witness records from RGB views, depth maps, reconstructed 3D geometry, role-sensitive text, object-prior null views, and multi-view consistency. A visual-geometric witness verifier assigns unannotated relation candidates to verified missing positives, reliable negatives, or uncertain unlabeled cases. A witness-guided positive-unlabeled objective then learns from incomplete annotations without turning every missing label into a negative. We further introduce witness-consistent decoding and an RGB-D missing-relation audit protocol. Simulated manuscript-planning experiments on 3DSSG/3RScan and ScanNet-derived open-vocabulary splits show the intended behavior: improved unseen-relation recognition, higher witness precision, lower hallucination, and reduced redundant relation phrases. All numerical results are planning values and must be replaced by reproduced measurements before submission

GraphWrit3R: End-to-End 3D Scene Graph Writing

3D scene graphs provide a structured representation of complex environments by encoding objects, their semantic attributes, and the spatial and functional relationships between them. Current approaches for 3D scene graph generation suffer from several fundamental limitations. They rely on complex multi-stage pipelines with explicit intermediate representations, making systems fragile and prone to error propagation. They assume access to ground-truth object annotations during inference, which deviates from real-world scenarios. They depend on proprietary models, hindering open-source deployment, or incur prohibitively slow inference. We present GraphWrit3R, a simple end-to-end method that takes a 3D point cloud, Gaussian Splats, or a combination of both as input, and directly outputs a complete scene graph as a structured JSON script. The graph lists all objects, their semantic attributes, and the relationships between them, while avoiding all of the above mentioned limitations. The choice of multiple input modalities is purely for versatility, allowing a single set of weights to handle diverse scenarios. Point cloud inputs are encoded via Sonata and Gaussian Splat inputs via Chorus, with both modalities projected onto a shared voxel grid and fused through a novel per-voxel contrastive alignment loss before being decoded by a large language model. As a natural consequence of the LLM, GraphWrit3R also supports open-vocabulary querying. On the 3DSSG benchmark, our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on object class, predicate, and triplet recall, outperforming methods that rely on ground-truth object annotations during inference. We further provide qualitative results and analyze different input modality configurations, contrastive loss formulations, and token fusion strategies.

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.
