Abstract:Reasoning about fine-grained placement constraints, such as support and containment, is essential for realistic 3D scene creation. It remains a significant challenge for existing methods that rely on simplified object representations like oriented bounding box (OBB), which are blind to the detailed geometry. To address this limitation, we introduce GALA, a geometry-aware language model with explicit point cloud perception for controllable object placement. Our model performs autoregressively by predicting the 6D pose of one target object at a time conditioned on the scene context and placement instruction. We utilize a two-stage training strategy: the first stage aligns geometric and textual modalities through pretraining tasks, and the second stage fine-tunes the model for placement. To facilitate this task, we also curate a multi-source scene dataset covering diverse room types and fine-grained furniture arrangements, which will be open-sourced for community benefit. Experiments on our benchmark show our model significantly outperforms baselines without explicit geometric reasoning. We further develop a multi-stage plan-place-verify agent pipeline that uses the model for text-driven scene generation. Project Page: this https URL
