• Abstract: Appearance of dressed humans undergoes a complex geometric transformation induced not only by the static pose but also by its dynamics, i.e., there exists a number of cloth geometric configurations given a pose depending on the way it has moved. Such appearance modeling conditioned on motion has been largely neglected in existing human rendering methods, resulting in rendering of physically implausible motion. A key challenge of learning the dynamics of the appearance lies in the requirement of a prohibitively large amount of observations. In this paper, we present a compact motion representation by enforcing equivariance -- a representation is expected to be transformed in the way that the pose is transformed. We model an equivariant encoder that can generate the generalizable representation from the spatial and temporal derivatives of the 3D body surface. This learned representation is decoded by a compositional multi-task decoder that renders high fidelity time-varying appearance. Our experiments show that our method can generate a temporally coherent video of dynamic humans for unseen body poses and novel views given a single view video.

  We propose a new method to generate highly dynamic and deformable human head avatars from multi-view imagery in real-time. At the core of our method is a hierarchical representation of head models that allows to capture the complex dynamics of facial expressions and head movements. We train this coarse-to-fine facial avatar model along with the head pose as a learnable parameter in an end-to-end framework.

  In this study, we elucidate that variations in human appearance depend not only on the current frame's pose condition but also on past pose states. We introduce Dyco, a novel method utilizing the delta pose sequence representation for non-rigid deformations. In addition, our inertia-aware 3D human method can unprecedentedly simulate appearance changes caused by inertia at different velocities.

  We introduce AniDress, a novel method for generating animatable human avatars in loose clothes using very sparse multi-view videos. A pose-driven deformable neural radiance field conditioned on both body and garment motions is introduced, providing explicit control of both parts. Our method is able to render natural garment dynamics that deviate highly from the body and well to generalize to both unseen views and poses.

For explicit modeling, a neural network learns to generate point-wise shape residuals and appearance features of a 3D body model. For implicit modeling, an implicit network combines the appearance and 3D motion features to decode high-fidelity clothed 3D human avatars.

  We aim to tackle the interesting yet challenging problem of generating videos of diverse and natural human motions from prescribed action categories. Key issue lies in the ability to synthesize multiple distinct motion sequences that are realistic in their visual appearances. Action2motionally generates plausible 3D pose sequences of a prescribed action category, which are processed and rendered by motion2video to form 2D videos.
