📝 摘要(中文)

理解和推理三维现实世界的能力是实现人工通用智能的重要里程碑。目前的常见做法是通过微调大型语言模型(LLMs)与三维数据和文本结合,以实现三维理解。然而,这些方法受到可用三维数据规模和多样性的限制。为此,本文提出了Agent3D-Zero,一个创新的三维感知代理框架,旨在以零-shot方式进行三维场景理解。该方法的核心在于将三维场景感知的挑战重新概念化为从多张图像中理解和综合洞察的过程,灵感来源于人类理解三维场景的方式。通过整合这一思想,我们提出了一种新颖的方法,利用大型视觉语言模型(VLM),通过主动选择和分析一系列视角来实现三维理解。实验结果表明,该框架在理解多样化和之前未见的三维环境方面表现出色。

🔬 方法详解

问题定义:本文旨在解决三维场景理解中的零-shot问题。现有方法依赖于大量标注数据进行微调,限制了其在新环境中的适应性和通用性。

核心思路:Agent3D-Zero的核心思路是将三维场景感知视为从多张图像中提取和综合信息的过程,模拟人类的理解方式,从而实现对三维场景的零-shot理解。

技术框架:该框架包括多个模块,首先处理鸟瞰图像,利用定制的视觉提示,然后迭代选择下一个观察视角,逐步总结场景知识。

关键创新:Agent3D-Zero引入了新颖的视觉提示,显著提升了VLM识别最具信息量视角的能力,与传统方法相比,能够更有效地观察和理解三维场景。

关键设计:在设计中,采用了特定的视觉提示和选择策略,以优化视角选择过程,确保模型能够在不同场景中提取关键信息。

📄 摘要(原文)

The ability to understand and reason the 3D real world is a crucial milestone towards artificial general intelligence. The current common practice is to finetune Large Language Models (LLMs) with 3D data and texts to enable 3D understanding. Despite their effectiveness, these approaches are inherently limited by the scale and diversity of the available 3D data. Alternatively, in this work, we introduce Agent3D-Zero, an innovative 3D-aware agent framework addressing the 3D scene understanding in a zero-shot manner. The essence of our approach centers on reconceptualizing the challenge of 3D scene perception as a process of understanding and synthesizing insights from multiple images, inspired by how our human beings attempt to understand 3D scenes. By consolidating this idea, we propose a novel way to make use of a Large Visual Language Model (VLM) via actively selecting and analyzing a series of viewpoints for 3D understanding. Specifically, given an input 3D scene, Agent3D-Zero first processes a bird's-eye view image with custom-designed visual prompts, then iteratively chooses the next viewpoints to observe and summarize the underlying knowledge. A distinctive advantage of Agent3D-Zero is the introduction of novel visual prompts, which significantly unleash the VLMs' ability to identify the most informative viewpoints and thus facilitate observing 3D scenes. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework in understanding diverse and previously unseen 3D environments.
