Spatial Geometric Reasoning for Room Layout Estimation via Deep Reinforcement Learning

Abstract

Unlike most existing works that define room layout on a 2D image, we model the layout in 3D as a configuration of the camera and the room. Our spatial geometric representation with only seven variables is more concise but effective, and more importantly enables direct 3D reasoning, e.g. how the camera is positioned relative to the room. This is particularly valuable in applications such as indoor robot navigation. We formulate the problem as a Markov decision process, in which the layout is incrementally adjusted based on the difference between the current layout and the target image, and the policy is learned via deep reinforcement learning. Our framework is end-to-end trainable, requiring no extra optimization, and achieves competitive performance on two challenging room layout datasets.
