• Authors: Feng Liu, Luan Tran, Xiaoming Liu
• Abstract summary: Inferring 3D structure of a generic object from a 2D image is a long-standing objective of computer vision. We take an alternative approach with semi-supervised learning. That is, for a 2D image of a generic object, we decompose it into latent representations of category, shape and albedo. We show that the complete shape and albedo modeling enables us to leverage real 2D images in both modeling and model fitting.

• Abstract: Inferring 3D structure of a generic object from a 2D image is a long-standing objective of computer vision. Conventional approaches either learn completely from CAD-generated synthetic data, which have difficulty in inference from real images, or generate 2.5D depth image via intrinsic decomposition, which is limited compared to the full 3D reconstruction. One fundamental challenge lies in how to leverage numerous real 2D images without any 3D ground truth. To address this issue, we take an alternative approach with semi-supervised learning. That is, for a 2D image of a generic object, we decompose it into latent representations of category, shape and albedo, lighting and camera projection matrix, decode the representations to segmented 3D shape and albedo respectively, and fuse these components to render an image well approximating the input image. Using a category-adaptive 3D joint occupancy field (JOF), we show that the complete shape and albedo modeling enables us to leverage real 2D images in both modeling and model fitting. The effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated through superior 3D reconstruction from a single image, being either synthetic or real, and shape segmentation.

  In this work, we explore a central 3D scene modeling task, namely, semantic scene reconstruction without using any 3D annotations. The key idea of our approach is to design a trainable model that employs both incomplete 3D reconstructions and their corresponding source RGB-D images. Our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance of semantic scene completion on two large-scale benchmark datasets MatterPort3D and ScanNet.

  We present GAN2X, a new method for unsupervised inverse rendering that only uses unpaired images for training. Unlike previous Shape-from-GAN approaches that mainly focus on 3D shapes, we take the first attempt to also recover non-Lambertian material properties by exploiting the pseudo paired data generated by a GAN. Experiments demonstrate that GAN2X can accurately decompose 2D images to 3D shape, albedo, and specular properties for different object categories, and achieves the state-of-the-art performance for unsupervised single-view 3D face reconstruction.

  We propose a novel framework for fine-grained object recognition that learns to recover object variation in 3D space from a single image. We represent an object as a composition of 3D shape and its appearance, while eliminating the effect of camera viewpoint. By incorporating 3D shape and appearance jointly in a deep representation, our method learns the discriminative representation of the object.

  We learn a module that generates a realistic rendering of a 3D object and infers a realistic 3D shape from an image. By leveraging generative domain translation methods, we are able to define a learning algorithm that requires only weak supervision, with unpaired data. The resulting model is able to perform 3D shape, pose, and texture inference from 2D images, but can also generate novel textured 3D shapes and renders.
