LegoOcc++ advances open-vocabulary 3D occupancy prediction with novel semantic and geometric methods

Researchers have developed LegoOcc++, a novel framework for open-vocabulary 3D occupancy prediction, particularly addressing challenges in indoor environments. This approach utilizes Language-Embedded Gaussians to link 3D geometry with language-aligned semantics, even with only binary occupancy labels. Key innovations include a Poisson-based Gaussian-to-Occupancy formulation for stable volumetric aggregation and Progressive Temperature Decay for improved semantic learning. The framework also incorporates Instance-Level Semantic Consistency and Covisibility-Aware Support-View Selection to enhance prediction accuracy and reduce supervision redundancy, demonstrating generality across both indoor and outdoor scenarios. AI

IMPACT Enhances the ability of embodied agents to understand and navigate complex 3D environments with open-vocabulary semantics.

    LegoOcc++: Towards Consistent Open-Vocabulary 3D Occupancy Prediction

    arXiv:2610.34093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Open-vocabulary 3D occupancy prediction is important for embodied agents operating in complex environments whose semantic categories extend beyond fixed taxonomies. While recent studies have explored open-vocabulary occupancy in out…
