Locate 3D: Real-World Object Localization via Self-Supervised Learning in 3D

Official model weights for the Locate-3D models and the 3D-JEPA encoders

Locate 3D

Locate 3D is a model for localizing objects in 3D scenes from referring expressions like “the small coffee table between the sofa and the lamp.” Locate 3D sets a new state-of-the-art on standard referential grounding benchmarks and showcases robust generalization capabilities. Notably, Locate 3D operates directly on sensor observation streams (posed RGB-D frames), enabling real-world deployment on robots and AR devices.

3D-JEPA

3D-JEPA, a novel self-supervised learning (SSL) algorithm applicable to sensor point clouds, is key to Locate 3D. It takes as input a 3D pointcloud featurized using 2D foundation models (CLIP, DINO). Subsequently, masked prediction in latent space is employed as a pretext task to aid the self-supervised learning of contextualized pointcloud features. Once trained, the 3D-JEPA encoder is finetuned alongside a language-conditioned decoder to jointly predict 3D masks and bounding boxes.
