• Title: Unsupervised High-Fidelity Facial Texture Generation and Reconstruction
• Authors: Ron Slossberg, Ibrahim Jubran, Ron Kimmel
• Abstract summary: We propose a novel unified pipeline for both tasks, generation of both geometry and texture, and recovery of high-fidelity texture. Our texture model is learned, in an unsupervised fashion, from natural images as opposed to scanned texture maps. By applying precise 3DMM fitting, we can seamlessly integrate our modeled textures into synthetically generated background images.

• Abstract: Many methods have been proposed over the years to tackle the task of facial 3D geometry and texture recovery from a single image. Such methods often fail to provide high-fidelity texture without relying on 3D facial scans during training. In contrast, the complementary task of 3D facial generation has not received as much attention. As opposed to the 2D texture domain, where GANs have proven to produce highly realistic facial images, the more challenging 3D geometry domain has not yet caught up to the same levels of realism and diversity. In this paper, we propose a novel unified pipeline for both tasks, generation of both geometry and texture, and recovery of high-fidelity texture. Our texture model is learned, in an unsupervised fashion, from natural images as opposed to scanned texture maps. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such unified framework independent of scanned textures. Our novel training pipeline incorporates a pre-trained 2D facial generator coupled with a deep feature manipulation methodology. By applying precise 3DMM fitting, we can seamlessly integrate our modeled textures into synthetically generated background images forming a realistic composition of our textured model with background, hair, teeth, and body. This enables us to apply transfer learning from the domain of 2D image generation, thus, benefiting greatly from the impressive results obtained in this domain. We provide a comprehensive study on several recent methods comparing our model in generation and reconstruction tasks. As the extensive qualitative, as well as quantitative analysis, demonstrate, we achieve state-of-the-art results for both tasks.

  We introduce Meta 3D TextureGen: a new feedforward method comprised of two sequential networks aimed at generating high-quality textures in less than 20 seconds. Our method state-of-the-art results in quality and speed by conditioning a text-to-image model on 3D semantics in 2D space and fusing them into a complete and high-resolution UV texture map. In addition, we introduce a texture enhancement network that is capable of up-scaling any texture by an arbitrary ratio, producing 4k pixel resolution textures.
