PLATO: Generating Objects from Part Lists via Synthesized Layouts

摘要

Modern generative models often struggle to synthesize structured objects from detailed part specifications. They frequently produce anatomically implausible outputs or hallucinated components. We introduce PLATO, a novel two-stage framework that bridges this gap by enabling precise, part-controlled object generation. The first stage is PLayGen, our novel part layout generator which takes a list of parts and object category as input and synthesizes high-fidelity layouts of part bounding boxes. To enhance PLayGen's ability to learn inter-part relationships, we introduce novel structure-based loss functions. In the second stage, PLayGen's synthesized layout is used to condition a custom-tuned ControlNet-style adapter, enforcing spatial and connectivity constraints. This results in anatomically consistent, high-fidelity object generations containing precisely the user-specified parts. We further propose new part-level evaluation metrics to rigorously quantify adherence to part specifications. Extensive experiments show that PLATO significantly outperforms state-of-the-art generative models and produces structurally coherent objects in a controllable manner - marking a step forward in modular, part-driven asset generation.
