Abstract

Weakly supervised 3D visual grounding aims to locate target objects in 3D scenarios based on referring expressions. The challenge lies in achieving region-level predictions relying solely on scene-level training annotations. Existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) models mainly focus on sentence-level cross-modal matching, neglecting the exploration of fine-grained semantics such as noun phrases, which leads to target ambiguity. To address this issue, this paper proposed PGKC, a neat yet effective framework. The framework utilizes a noun phrase-guided prompt construction module and leverages a pre-trained large-scale model to generate semantically aligned prompts to enhance the original referring semantics. Furthermore, the framework incorporates a prompt-guided knowledge consolidation block, which consists of a prompt-aware fused feature augmentation module and a Transformer encoder, to capture more discriminative visual contexts and augment multi-modal correlation knowledge. Finally, the algorithm feeds the consolidated visual and textual representations into a grounding head to accomplish cross-modal matching. Experimental results show that PGKC improves the average accuracy on the ScanRefer, Nr3D and Sr3D datasets by 1.02%, 1.96% and 0.90% respectively, significantly enhancing the accuracy and robustness of visual grounding in complex 3D scenarios.
