• Title: Learning Pose Image Manifolds Using Geometry-Preserving GANs and Elasticae
• Authors: Shenyuan Liang, Pavan Turaga, Anuj Srivastava
• Abstract summary: Geometric Style-GAN (Geom-SGAN) maps images to low-dimensional latent representations. Euler's elastica smoothly interpolate between directed points (points + tangent directions) in the low-dimensional latent space.

• Abstract: This paper investigates the challenge of learning image manifolds, specifically pose manifolds, of 3D objects using limited training data. It proposes a DNN approach to manifold learning and for predicting images of objects for novel, continuous 3D rotations. The approach uses two distinct concepts: (1) Geometric Style-GAN (Geom-SGAN), which maps images to low-dimensional latent representations and maintains the (first-order) manifold geometry. That is, it seeks to preserve the pairwise distances between base points and their tangent spaces, and (2) uses Euler's elastica to smoothly interpolate between directed points (points + tangent directions) in the low-dimensional latent space. When mapped back to the larger image space, the resulting interpolations resemble videos of rotating objects. Extensive experiments establish the superiority of this framework in learning paths on rotation manifolds, both visually and quantitatively, relative to state-of-the-art GANs and VAEs.

  We introduce GeoGS3D, a framework for reconstructing detailed 3D objects from single-view images. We propose a novel metric, Gaussian Divergence Significance (GDS), to prune unnecessary operations during optimization. Experiments demonstrate that GeoGS3D generates images with high consistency across views and reconstructs high-quality 3D objects.
