HOG-Layout: Hierarchical 3D Scene Generation, Optimization and Editing via Vision-Language Models

The 3D layout generation and editing play a crucial role in Embodied AI and immersive VR interaction. However, manual creation requires extensive and tedious labor, while data-driven generation often lacks diversity. The emergence of large models introduces new possibilities for automatic 3D scene synthesis. We present HOG-Layout that enables text-driven hierarchical scene generation, optimization and real-time scene editing with large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs). HOG-Layout improves scene semantic consistency and plausibility through retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technology, incorporates an optimization module to enhance physical consistency, and adopts a hierarchical representation to enhance inference and optimization, achieving real-time editing. Experimental results demonstrate that HOG-Layout produces more reasonable environments compared with existing baselines, while supporting fast and intuitive scene editing.
