• Abstract: Most model-based 3D hand pose and shape estimation methods directly regress the parametric model parameters from an image to obtain 3D joints under weak supervision. However, these methods involve solving a complex optimization problem with many local minima, making training difficult. To address this challenge, we propose learning direction-aware hybrid features (DaHyF) that fuse implicit image features and explicit 2D joint coordinate features. This fusion is enhanced by the pixel direction information in the camera coordinate system to estimate pose, shape, and camera viewpoint. Our method directly predicts 3D hand poses with DaHyF representation and reduces jittering during motion capture using prediction confidence based on contrastive learning. We evaluate our method on the FreiHAND dataset and show that it outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods by more than 33% in accuracy. DaHyF also achieves the top ranking on both the HO3Dv2 and HO3Dv3 leaderboards for the metric of Mean Joint Error (after scale and translation alignment). Compared to the second-best results, the largest improvement observed is 10%. We also demonstrate its effectiveness in real-time motion capture scenarios with hand position variability, occlusion, and motion blur.

  Learnable matchers often underperform when there exists only small regions of co-visibility between image pairs. We propose LFM-3D, a Learnable Feature Matching framework that uses models based on graph neural networks. We show that the resulting improved correspondences lead to much higher relative posing accuracy for in-the-wild image pairs.

  This paper aims to estimate 3D mesh of multiple body parts with large-scale differences from a single RGB image. The main challenge is lacking training data that have complete 3D annotations of all body parts in 2D images. We propose a depth-to-scale (D2S) projection to incorporate the depth difference into the projection function to derive per-joint scale variants.
