• Abstract summary: We present NeRD, a Neural 3D Reflection Symmetry Detector. We first enumerate the symmetry planes with a coarse-to-fine strategy and then find the best ones by building 3D cost volumes. Our experiments show that the symmetry planes detected with our method are significantly more accurate than the planes from direct CNN regression.

• Abstract: Recent advances have shown that symmetry, a structural prior that most objects exhibit, can support a variety of single-view 3D understanding tasks. However, detecting 3D symmetry from an image remains a challenging task. Previous works either assume that the symmetry is given or detect the symmetry with a heuristic-based method. In this paper, we present NeRD, a Neural 3D Reflection Symmetry Detector, which combines the strength of learning-based recognition and geometry-based reconstruction to accurately recover the normal direction of objects' mirror planes. Specifically, we first enumerate the symmetry planes with a coarse-to-fine strategy and then find the best ones by building 3D cost volumes to examine the intra-image pixel correspondence from the symmetry. Our experiments show that the symmetry planes detected with our method are significantly more accurate than the planes from direct CNN regression on both synthetic and real-world datasets. We also demonstrate that the detected symmetry can be used to improve the performance of downstream tasks such as pose estimation and depth map regression.

  3D Morphable Model (3DMM) fitting has widely benefited face analysis due to its strong 3D priori. Previous reconstructed 3D faces suffer from degraded visual verisimilitude due to the loss of fine-grained geometry. This paper proposes a complete solution to capture the personalized shape so that the reconstructed shape looks identical to the corresponding person.

Monocular 3D detection, as an economical solution compared to conventional settings relying on binocular vision or LiDAR, has drawn increasing attention recently but still yields unsatisfactory results. This paper first presents a systematic study on this problem and observes that the current monocular 3D detection problem can be simplified as an instance depth estimation problem.
