Reconstruction Pipeline

From a one-time room scan and single-camera RGB-D recordings to camera poses, full-body motion, and object trajectories in a shared metric scene frame.

SituHOI construction pipeline: room scans and RGB-D interactions feed scene reconstruction, camera localization, human fitting, and object tracking, producing scene-aligned motion with language annotations.

FlexHOI-Bench

A unified benchmark on SituHOI for goal-conditioned human-object motion prediction, with flexible observation and forecast durations.

Given
  • Human-object history
  • Scene & object geometry
  • Target object pose
Predict
  • Full-body human motion
  • Intermediate object trajectory

Explore the time split

H + F ≤ 4 s

Drag the split and goal handles, use arrow keys, or choose a reported setting. The ruler measures elapsed time from the window start; the split is the paper’s t = 0. Dots mark reported splits at the current span.

Flexible-time evaluation

Evaluate the same model across varying observation and forecast durations, including unseen duration combinations.

Recording-level splits

Keep each recording within a single split, so overlapping motion windows never cross training, validation, and test sets.

Motion & coordination

Assess both trajectory accuracy and human-object coordination through position errors and wrist-object proximity.

SharedHOI

Reference method

A shared temporal predictor couples human and object motion, followed by object-translation refinement that preserves the supplied goal.

SharedHOI for FlexHOI-Bench: motion history, scene and object geometry, an object goal, and query durations are encoded by a shared transformer; human prediction and object refinement produce future motion in scene coordinates.
