• Abstract summary: Virtual try-on and product personalization have become increasingly important in modern online shopping, highlighting the need for accurate body measurement estimation. Previous research has advanced in estimating 3D body shapes from RGB images, but the task is inherently ambiguous as the observed scale of human subjects in the images depends on two unknown factors: capture distance and body dimensions. We propose a modular and simple height normalization solution, which relocates the subject skeleton to the desired position, normalizing the scale and disentangling the relationship between the two variables.

• Abstract: Virtual try-on and product personalization have become increasingly important in modern online shopping, highlighting the need for accurate body measurement estimation. Although previous research has advanced in estimating 3D body shapes from RGB images, the task is inherently ambiguous as the observed scale of human subjects in the images depends on two unknown factors: capture distance and body dimensions. This ambiguity is particularly pronounced in partial-view scenarios. To address this challenge, we propose a modular and simple height normalization solution. This solution relocates the subject skeleton to the desired position, thereby normalizing the scale and disentangling the relationship between the two variables. Our experimental results demonstrate that integrating this technique into state-of-the-art human mesh reconstruction models significantly enhances partial body measurement estimation. Additionally, we illustrate the applicability of this approach to multi-view settings, showcasing its versatility.

  Whole-body pose and shape estimation aims to jointly predict different behaviors of the entire human body from a monocular image. Existing methods often exhibit degraded performance under the complexity of in-the-wild scenarios. We propose a novel framework to enhance the robustness of whole-body pose and shape estimation.

  Category-level pose estimation is a challenging task with many potential applications in computer vision and robotics. We propose to utilize both geometric and semantic features obtained from a pre-trained foundation model. This requires significantly less data to train than prior methods since the semantic features are robust to object texture and appearance.

  estimation of 3D human body shape and clothing measurements is crucial for virtual try-on and size recommendation problems in the fashion industry.

We propose a simple yet effective architecture to estimate both shape and measures from frontal- and side-view images.
