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

arXiv:2606.27412v1 Announce Type: cross 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: dir

Why this matters
Why now

This research addresses fundamental challenges in 3D scene understanding for embodied AI, a critical area as AI systems move into physical environments.

Why it’s important

Improved 3D scene graph generation that is robust to viewpoint changes is essential for reliable navigation, manipulation, and interaction of autonomous agents in dynamic real-world settings.

What changes

The ability of AI systems to maintain consistent understanding of their environment despite changes in observation viewpoint will improve, enhancing their reliability and autonomy in physical spaces.
