This research defines Procedure Step Recognition (PSR), a new task for understanding the correct completion and order of steps in industrial procedures, and introduces the multi-modal IndustReal dataset to support its development. The dataset incorporates diverse execution errors and offers open-source 3D models for parts, with benchmarks showing that procedural information improves recognition but error handling remains a challenge for current baselines.

Key insights

  • Leveraging procedural information to constrain expected state transitions significantly improves Procedure Step Recognition (PSR) performance, as demonstrated by Baseline 3 outperforming other baselines.
  • Different visual modalities (RGB, visible light, stereo) provide complementary information for action recognition, with multimodal ensembles showing improved performance over single-modality approaches.
  • Synthetic data alone is insufficient for robust assembly state detection (ASD), but combining synthetic and real-world data can achieve higher mAP, highlighting the value of both for model training.
