MultiCube: Compositional 3D Generation With Part-Level Semantic and Spatial Control
TL;DR
Experiments demonstrate that the MultiCube method can generate high-quality compositional 3D objects with precise part-level control, including those with unique layouts difficult to achieve with text or image prompting alone.
Abstract
Digital 3D objects used in games and animation are often required to be compositional; that is, decomposed into semantically meaningful parts. Recent 3D generation methods can produce high-quality compositional objects conditioned on image or text prompts. Yet, such global conditioning lacks the precise part-level controllability required for professional creative workflows. To address this, we introduce MultiCube, a novel compositional 3D generation method that provides explicit, independent control over both the semantics and spatial arrangement of each part. MultiCube takes as input a global text prompt, a text schema specifying the desired parts, and a spatial layout indicating the bounding boxes of the parts in the given schema. It outputs a 3D object composed of distinct meshes, one per specified part, that adhere to the given semantic and spatial conditions. Our approach employs a two-stage diffusion process, first generating a schema- and layout-aligned monolithic mesh, then decomposing the mesh into individual parts simultaneously. A novel Part Layout Adapter is used to encode per-part conditions independently of the other parts. Experiments demonstrate that our method can generate high-quality compositional 3D objects with precise part-level control, including those with unique layouts difficult to achieve with text or image prompting alone.
