abstract

Spatial reasoning is a fundamental aspect of human cognition, enabling intuitive understanding and manipulation of objects in three-dimensional space. While foundation models demonstrate remarkable performance on some benchmarks, they still struggle with 3D reasoning tasks like arranging objects in space according to open-ended language instructions, particularly in dense and physically constrained environments. We introduce LayoutVLM, a framework and scene layout representation that exploits the semantic knowledge of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and supports differentiable optimization to ensure physical plausibility. LayoutVLM employs VLMs to generate two mutually reinforcing representations from visually marked images, and a self-consistent decoding process to improve VLMs spatial planning. Our experiments show that LayoutVLM addresses the limitations of existing LLM and constraint-based approaches, producing physically plausible 3D layouts better aligned with the semantic intent of input language instructions. We also demonstrate that fine-tuning VLMs with the proposed scene layout representation extracted from existing scene datasets can improve their reasoning performance.

SynCity 3000: Bootstrapping Scene-Scale 3D Diffusion

cs.CV · 2026-07-06 · conditional · novelty 6.0

SynCity 3000 generates large, coherent 3D scenes from text by fine-tuning an image-to-3D diffusion model to operate convolutionally on overlapping windows, trained on procedurally generated synthetic scene data.

Text-Driven 3D Indoor Scene Synthesis in Non-Manhattan Environments

cs.AI · 2026-07-02 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

SPG-Layout combines statistical object priors with hierarchical large-object-first placement to produce physically plausible text-driven 3D scenes in non-Manhattan rooms and outperforms baselines on a new 500-scene benchmark.
