Abstract
Current 3D scene understanding pipelines typically concatenate vast numbers of 3D object tokens with text tokens and feed the resulting sequence to a Large Language Model (LLM). However, existing 3D-LLMs for scene understanding encounter two major limitations: (i) excessive inclusion of task-irrelevant object data, introducing noise that reduces reasoning accuracy and increases hallucinations; and (ii) reliance solely on point cloud data, which inherently lacks the rich semantic information available in complementary 2D modalities, such as color, material properties, texture, and high-level contextual relationships. To address these challenges, we introduce 3D-SceneQ, a 3D LLM that unifies adaptive token pruning with multimodal semantic enrichment, markedly advancing scene understanding, reasoning, and grounding. Specifically, we propose a Query-Guided Adaptive Pruning (QGAP) module that adaptively selects task-relevant objects based on the intended meaning of user instructions, leveraging a learnable latent query to retain critical information while effectively suppressing irrelevant noise. In addition, we introduce a Multi-modal Object-level Feature Enhancement (MOFE) module, which integrates 2D feature embeddings from pre-trained models into 3D representation to enrich object-level semantic information. Evaluations show that 3D-SceneQ outperforms current state-of-the-art methods across multiple benchmarks (e.g., +5.7 CIDEr on Scan2Cap and +17.0 EM@1 on SQA3D), demonstrating its remarkable capabilities in various 3D language reasoning tasks.
