• Abstract summary: We consider the problem of obtaining dense 3D reconstructions of humans from single and partially occluded views. We suggest that ambiguities can be modelled more effectively by parametrizing the possible body shapes and poses. We show that our method outperforms alternative approaches in ambiguous pose recovery on standard benchmarks for 3D humans.

• Abstract: We consider the problem of obtaining dense 3D reconstructions of humans from single and partially occluded views. In such cases, the visual evidence is usually insufficient to identify a 3D reconstruction uniquely, so we aim at recovering several plausible reconstructions compatible with the input data. We suggest that ambiguities can be modelled more effectively by parametrizing the possible body shapes and poses via a suitable 3D model, such as SMPL for humans. We propose to learn a multi-hypothesis neural network regressor using a best-of-M loss, where each of the M hypotheses is constrained to lie on a manifold of plausible human poses by means of a generative model. We show that our method outperforms alternative approaches in ambiguous pose recovery on standard benchmarks for 3D humans, and in heavily occluded versions of these benchmarks.

  We propose to use the Human-Object Offset between anchors which are densely sampled from the surface of human mesh and object mesh to represent human-object spatial relation. Based on this representation, we propose Stacked Normalizing Flow (StackFLOW) to infer the posterior distribution of human-object spatial relations from the image. During the optimization stage, we finetune the human body pose and object 6D pose by maximizing the likelihood of samples.

  Most 3D-HPE methods rely on regression models, which assume a one-to-one mapping between inputs and outputs. We propose ManiPose, a novel manifold-constrained multi-hypothesis model capable of proposing multiple candidate 3D poses for each 2D input. Unlike previous multi-hypothesis approaches, our solution is completely supervised and does not rely on complex generative models.

  THUNDR is a transformer-based deep neural network methodology to reconstruct the 3d pose and shape of people. We show state-of-the-art results on Human3.6M and 3DPW, for both the fully-supervised and the self-supervised models. We observe very solid 3d reconstruction performance for difficult human poses collected in the wild.
