KnowZRel: Common Sense Knowledge-based Zero-Shot Relationship Retrieval for Generalised Scene Graph Generation

A scene graph is a key image representation in visual reasoning. The generalisability of Scene Graph Generation (SGG) methods is crucial for reliable reasoning and real-world applicability. However, imbalanced training datasets limit this, underrepresenting meaningful visual relationships. Current SGG methods using external knowledge sources face limitations due to these imbalances or restricted relationship coverage, impacting their reasoning and generalisation capabilities. We propose a novel neurosymbolic approach that integrates data-driven object detection with heterogeneous knowledge graph-based object refinement and zero-shot relationship retrieval, highlighting the loosely coupled synergy between neural and symbolic components. This combination addresses the limitations of imbalanced training datasets in scene graph generation and enables effective prediction of unseen visual relationships. Objects are detected using a region-based deep neural network and refined based on their positional and structural similarity, followed by retrieval of pairwise visual relationships using a heterogeneous knowledge graph. The redundant and irrelevant visual relationships are discarded based on the similarity of relationship labels and node embeddings. Finally, the visual relationships are interlinked to generate the scene graph. The employed heterogeneous knowledge graph combines diverse knowledge sources, offering rich common sense knowledge about objects and their interactions in the world. Our method, evaluated using the benchmark Visual Genome dataset and zero-shot recall (zR@K) metric, shows a 59.96% improvement over existing state-of-the-art methods, highlighting its effectiveness in generalised SGG. The object refinement step effectively improved the object detection performance by 57.1%. Additional evaluation using the GQA dataset confirms the cross-dataset generalisability of our method. We also compared various knowledge sources and embedding models to determine an optimal combination for zero-shot SGG. The source code is available at https://github.com/jaleedkhan/zsrr-sgg.

Zero-Shot Scene Graph Generation via Triplet Calibration and Reduction

Scene Graph Generation (SGG) plays a pivotal role in downstream vision-language tasks. Existing SGG methods typically suffer from poor compositional generalizations on unseen triplets. They are generally trained on incompletely annotated scene graphs that contain dominant triplets and tend to bias toward these seen triplets during inference. To address this issue, we propose a Triplet Calibration and Reduction (T-CAR) framework in this paper. In our framework, a triplet calibration loss is first presented to regularize the representations of diverse triplets and to simultaneously excavate the unseen triplets in incompletely annotated training scene graphs. Moreover, the unseen space of scene graphs is usually several times larger than the seen space since it contains a huge number of unrealistic compositions. Thus, we propose an unseen space reduction loss to shift the attention of excavation to reasonable unseen compositions to facilitate the model training. Finally, we propose a contextual encoder to improve the compositional generalizations of unseen triplets by explicitly modeling the relative spatial relations between subjects and objects. Extensive experiments show that our approach achieves consistent improvements for zero-shot SGG over state-of-the-art methods. The code is available at https://github.com/jkli1998/T-CAR.
