DGSG-Mind: Dynamic 3D Gaussian Scene Graphs for Long-Term Scene Understanding and Grounding

DGSG-Mind introduces a hybrid instance-aware 3D Gaussian dynamic scene graph system that integrates open‑vocabulary semantic information into dynamic 3D scene representations. By coupling a probabilistic voxel grid with explicit 3D Gaussians, it achieves robust cross‑modal instance fusion, incremental semantic mapping, and dynamic change handling through Gaussian‑based relocalization and masked refinement. The system builds a hierarchical scene graph and a 3D Gaussian Mind for multimodal reasoning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot 3D visual grounding and strong performance in open‑vocabulary semantic segmentation and scene reconstruction, and is demonstrated on real‑world robots.

Spatiotemporal Knowledge Graphs as Persistent Scene Memory for Embodied Question Answering

arXiv:2510. 01483v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image-level scene understanding, but reasoning over long egocentric video remains costly: because VLMs maintain no persistent memory or explicit spatial representation, all sampled frames must be re-processed for every new query.

Prior-SG: Task and Prior Driven Region Segmentation for Scene Graphs in Arbitrarily-Structured Environments

Hierarchical 3D scene graphs are a promising representation for high-level spatial reasoning in autonomous mobile platforms. However, existing extraction frameworks typically rely on purely local visual clustering or strict geometric heuristics, such as wall-separated rooms, which fail in open-plan or arbitrarily-structured environments.

CoRef-GS: Cooperative Referring Gaussian Splatting for Multi-Agent Scene Understanding

CoRef-GS introduces a cooperative referring Gaussian splatting framework for multi‑agent scene understanding, enabling robots to ground object‑ and relation‑centric language queries across independently reconstructed maps. The method builds local open‑vocabulary instance‑aware Gaussian maps, aligns them using a cross‑agent module that enforces geometric and semantic consistency, and grounds queries with a view‑conditioned mask relation graph. Experiments on a new dual‑quadruped benchmark show significant improvements, reducing rotation error from 2.58° to 0.15° and raising real‑world referring mIoU from 52.6% to 68.8%.

LucidLyra: Feed-Forward Generative 3D Scene Reconstruction and Joint Understanding via Multi-Task Distillation

LucidLyra is a framework that reconstructs 3D scenes from video latents in a feed‑forward manner while simultaneously providing open‑vocabulary semantics and instance cues. By distilling knowledge from a camera‑controlled video diffusion model and frozen 2D vision foundation models, it jointly infers 3D Gaussians that encode geometry, appearance, and semantic information without requiring per‑scene optimization or manual 3D annotations. The resulting scenes support novel‑view rendering, open‑vocabulary segmentation, and object grouping, and can be extended to monocular video for dynamic 3D reconstruction.
