## Introduction
SpatialLM is a 3D large language model designed to process 3D point cloud data and generate structured 3D scene understanding outputs. These outputs include architectural elements like walls, doors, windows, and oriented object bounding boxes with their semantic categories. Unlike previous methods that require specialized equipment for data collection, SpatialLM can handle point clouds from diverse sources such as monocular video sequences, RGBD images, and LiDAR sensors. This multimodal architecture effectively bridges the gap between unstructured 3D geometric data and structured 3D representations, offering high-level semantic understanding. It enhances spatial reasoning capabilities for applications in embodied robotics, autonomous navigation, and other complex 3D scene analysis tasks.

## Usage
### Installation
Tested with the following environment:
- Python 3.11
- Pytorch 2.4.1
- CUDA Version 12.4
```bash
# clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/manycore-research/SpatialLM.git
cd SpatialLM
# create a conda environment with cuda 12.4
conda create -n spatiallm python=3.11
conda activate spatiallm
conda install -y nvidia/label/cuda-12.4.0::cuda-toolkit conda-forge::sparsehash
# Install dependencies with poetry
pip install poetry && poetry config virtualenvs.create false --local
poetry install
poe install-torchsparse # Building wheel for torchsparse will take a while
```
### Inference
In the current version of SpatialLM, input point clouds are considered axis-aligned where the z-axis is the up axis. This orientation is crucial for maintaining consistency in spatial understanding and scene interpretation across different datasets and applications.
Example preprocessed point clouds, reconstructed from RGB videos using [MASt3R-SLAM](https://github.com/rmurai0610/MASt3R-SLAM), are available in [SpatialLM-Testset](#spatiallm-testset).
Download an example point cloud:
```bash
huggingface-cli download manycore-research/SpatialLM-Testset pcd/scene0000_00.ply --repo-type dataset --local-dir .
```
Run inference:
```bash
python inference.py --point_cloud pcd/scene0000_00.ply --output scene0000_00.txt --model_path manycore-research/SpatialLM-Llama-1B
```
### Visualization
Use `rerun` to visualize the point cloud and the predicted structured 3D layout output:
```bash
# Convert the predicted layout to Rerun format
python visualize.py --point_cloud pcd/scene0000_00.ply --layout scene0000_00.txt --save scene0000_00.rrd
# Visualize the point cloud and the predicted layout
rerun scene0000_00.rrd
```
### Evaluation
To evaluate the performance of SpatialLM, we provide `eval.py` script that reports the benchmark results on the SpatialLM-Testset in the table below in section [Benchmark Results](#benchmark-results).
Download the testset:
```bash
huggingface-cli download manycore-research/SpatialLM-Testset --repo-type dataset --local-dir SpatialLM-Testset
```
Run evaluation:
```bash
# Run inference on the PLY point clouds in folder SpatialLM-Testset/pcd with SpatialLM-Llama-1B model
python inference.py --point_cloud SpatialLM-Testset/pcd --output SpatialLM-Testset/pred --model_path manycore-research/SpatialLM-Llama-1B
# Evaluate the predicted layouts
python eval.py --metadata SpatialLM-Testset/test.csv --gt_dir SpatialLM-Testset/layout --pred_dir SpatialLM-Testset/pred --label_mapping SpatialLM-Testset/benchmark_categories.tsv
```
## SpatialLM Testset
We provide a test set of 107 preprocessed point clouds, reconstructed from RGB videos using [MASt3R-SLAM](https://github.com/rmurai0610/MASt3R-SLAM). SpatialLM-Testset is quite challenging compared to prior clean RGBD scans datasets due to the noises and occlusions in the point clouds reconstructed from monocular RGB videos.
