Spatial computing experiences are constrained by the real-world surroundings of the user. In such experiences, augmenting virtual objects to existing scenes require a contextual approach, where geometrical conflicts are avoided, and functional and plausible relationships to other objects are maintained in the target environment. Yet, due to the complexity and diversity of user environments, automatically calculating ideal positions of virtual content that is adaptive to the context of the scene is considered a challenging task. Motivated by this problem, in this paper we introduce SceneGen, a generative contextual augmentation framework that predicts virtual object positions and orientations within existing scenes. SceneGen takes a semantically segmented scene as input, and outputs positional and orientational probability maps for placing virtual content. We formulate a novel spatial Scene Graph representation, which encapsulates explicit topological properties between objects, object groups, and the room. We believe providing explicit and intuitive features plays an important role in informative content creation and user interaction of spatial computing settings, a quality that is not captured in implicit models. We use kernel density estimation (KDE) to build a multivariate conditional knowledge model trained using prior spatial Scene Graphs extracted from real-world 3D scanned data. To further capture orientational properties, we develop a fast pose annotation tool to extend current real-world datasets with orientational labels. Finally, to demonstrate our system in action, we develop an Augmented Reality application, in which objects can be contextually augmented in real-time.

Indoor scene augmentation has become an emerging topic in the field of computer vision and graphics with applications in augmented and virtual reality. However, current state-of-the-art systems using deep neural networks require large datasets for tr
aining. In this paper we introduce GSACNet, a contextual scene augmentation system that can be trained with limited scene priors. GSACNet utilizes a novel parametric data augmentation method combined with a Graph Attention and Siamese network architecture followed by an Autoencoder network to facilitate training with small datasets. We show the effectiveness of our proposed system by conducting ablation and comparative studies with alternative systems on the Matterport3D dataset. Our results indicate that our scene augmentation outperforms prior art in scene synthesis with limited scene priors available.
Although 360textdegree{} cameras ease the capture of panoramic footage, it remains challenging to add realistic 360textdegree{} audio that blends into the captured scene and is synchronized with the camera motion. We present a method for adding scene
-aware spatial audio to 360textdegree{} videos in typical indoor scenes, using only a conventional mono-channel microphone and a speaker. We observe that the late reverberation of a rooms impulse response is usually diffuse spatially and directionally. Exploiting this fact, we propose a method that synthesizes the directional impulse response between any source and listening locations by combining a synthesized early reverberation part and a measured late reverberation tail. The early reverberation is simulated using a geometric acoustic simulation and then enhanced using a frequency modulation method to capture room resonances. The late reverberation is extracted from a recorded impulse response, with a carefully chosen time duration that separates out the late reverberation from the early reverberation. In our validations, we show that our synthesized spatial audio matches closely with recordings using ambisonic microphones. Lastly, we demonstrate the strength of our method in several applications.
In this paper, we study the problem of parsing structured knowledge graphs from textual descriptions. In particular, we consider the scene graph representation that considers objects together with their attributes and relations: this representation h
as been proved useful across a variety of vision and language applications. We begin by introducing an alternative but equivalent edge-centric view of scene graphs that connect to dependency parses. Together with a careful redesign of label and action space, we combine the two-stage pipeline used in prior work (generic dependency parsing followed by simple post-processing) into one, enabling end-to-end training. The scene graphs generated by our learned neural dependency parser achieve an F-score similarity of 49.67% to ground truth graphs on our evaluation set, surpassing best previous approaches by 5%. We further demonstrate the effectiveness of our learned parser on image retrieval applications.
A long-standing challenge in scene analysis is the recovery of scene arrangements under moderate to heavy occlusion, directly from monocular video. While the problem remains a subject of active research, concurrent advances have been made in the cont
ext of human pose reconstruction from monocular video, including image-space feature point detection and 3D pose recovery. These methods, however, start to fail under moderate to heavy occlusion as the problem becomes severely under-constrained. We approach the problems differently. We observe that people interact similarly in similar scenes. Hence, we exploit the correlation between scene object arrangement and motions performed in that scene in both directions: first, typical motions performed when interacting with objects inform us about possible object arrangements; and second, object arrangements, in turn, constrain the possible motions. We present iMapper, a data-driven method that focuses on identifying human-object interactions, and jointly reasons about objects and human movement over space-time to recover both a plausible scene arrangement and consistent human interactions. We first introduce the notion of characteristic interactions as regions in space-time when an informative human-object interaction happens. This is followed by a novel occlusion-aware matching procedure that searches and aligns such characteristic snapshots from an interaction database to best explain the input monocular video. Through extensive evaluations, both quantitative and qualitative, we demonstrate that iMapper significantly improves performance over both dedicated state-of-the-art scene analysis and 3D human pose recovery approaches, especially under medium to heavy occlusion.
Relations amongst entities play a central role in image understanding. Due to the complexity of modeling (subject, predicate, object) relation triplets, it is crucial to develop a method that can not only recognize seen relations, but also generalize
to unseen cases. Inspired by a previously proposed visual translation embedding model, or VTransE, we propose a context-augmented translation embedding model that can capture both common and rare relations. The previous VTransE model maps entities and predicates into a low-dimensional embedding vector space where the predicate is interpreted as a translation vector between the embedded features of the bounding box regions of the subject and the object. Our model additionally incorporates the contextual information captured by the bounding box of the union of the subject and the object, and learns the embeddings guided by the constraint predicate $approx$ union (subject, object) $-$ subject $-$ object. In a comprehensive evaluation on multiple challenging benchmarks, our approach outperforms previous translation-based models and comes close to or exceeds the state of the art across a range of settings, from small-scale to large-scale datasets, from common to previously unseen relations. It also achieves promising results for the recently introduced task of scene graph generation.
