DIFF: A dataset for indoor flexible furniture

Recently, indoor scene synthesis has gathered significant attention, leading to the development of numerous indoor datasets. However, existing datasets only address static furniture and scenes, ignoring the need for dynamic interior design scenarios that emphasize flexible functionalities. Addressing this gap, we present DIFF (Dataset for Indoor Flexible Furniture), featuring expertly crafted and labeled furniture modules capable of inter-transforming between different states, e.g., a cabinet can be inter-transformed to a desk. Each module exhibits flexibility in shifting to multiple shapes and functionalities. Additionally, we propose a method that adapts our dataset to generate flexible layouts. By matching our flexible objects to objects from existing datasets, we use a graph-based approach to migrate the spatial relation priors for optimizing a layout; subsequent layouts are then generated by minimizing a transition-cost function. Analyses and user studies validate the quality of our modules and demonstrate the plausibility of the proposed method.
