• Title: Unsupervised Video Prediction from a Single Frame by Estimating 3D Dynamic Scene Structure
• Authors: Paul Henderson, Christoph H. Lampert, Bernd Bickel
• Abstract summary: We develop a model that first estimates the latent 3D structure of the scene, including the segmentation of any moving objects. It then predicts future frames by simulating the object and camera dynamics, and rendering the resulting views. Experiments on two challenging datasets of natural videos show that our model can estimate 3D structure and motion segmentation from a single frame.

• Abstract: Our goal in this work is to generate realistic videos given just one initial frame as input. Existing unsupervised approaches to this task do not consider the fact that a video typically shows a 3D environment, and that this should remain coherent from frame to frame even as the camera and objects move. We address this by developing a model that first estimates the latent 3D structure of the scene, including the segmentation of any moving objects. It then predicts future frames by simulating the object and camera dynamics, and rendering the resulting views. Importantly, it is trained end-to-end using only the unsupervised objective of predicting future frames, without any 3D information nor segmentation annotations. Experiments on two challenging datasets of natural videos show that our model can estimate 3D structure and motion segmentation from a single frame, and hence generate plausible and varied predictions.

  We argue that this representation is limited and instead propose to guide and improve 2D tracking with an explicit object representation. Our representation tackles a complex long-term dense correspondence problem between all 3D points on the object for all video frames. The proposed optimization minimizes a novel loss function to estimate the best 3D shape, texture, and 6DoF pose.

  We study the problem of temporal view synthesis (TVS), where the goal is to predict the next frames of a video. In this work, we consider the TVS of dynamic scenes in which both the user and objects are moving. We predict the motion of objects by isolating and estimating the 3D object motion in the past frames and then extrapolating it.

  We study the problem of decomposing the observed 3D scene into a static background and a dynamic foreground. This task is reminiscent of the classic background subtraction problem, but is significantly harder because all parts of the scene, static and dynamic, generate a large apparent motion. In particular, we consider egocentric videos and further separate the dynamic component into objects and the actor that observes and moves them.

  We propose an action-conditioned dynamics model that predicts scene changes caused by object and agent interactions in a viewpoint-in 3D neural scene representation space. In this space, objects do not interfere with one another and their appearance persists over time and across viewpoints. We show our model generalizes well its predictions across varying number and appearances of interacting objects as well as across camera viewpoints.
