Abstract

We present an end-to-end Neural Human Renderer (NHR) for dynamic human captures under the multi-view setting. NHR adopts PointNet++ for feature extraction (FE) to enable robust 3D correspondence matching on low quality, dynamic 3D reconstructions. To render new views, we map 3D features onto the target camera as a 2D feature map and employ an anti-aliased CNN to handle holes and noises. Newly synthesized views from NHR can be further used to construct visual hulls to handle textureless and/or dark regions such as black clothing. Comprehensive experiments show NHR significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art neural and image-based rendering techniques, especially on hands, hair, nose, foot, etc.

Get Started

The designed architecture follows this guide PyTorch-Project-Template, you can check each folder's purpose by yourself.

Dependencies:

1.Dataset preparing A data folder with a structure like following:

.
├──  img
│    └── %d    					- the frame number, start from 0.
│        └──mask
│        	└── img_%04d.jpg	- foreground mask of corresponding view. view number start from 0. 
│        └──img_%04d.jpg   		- undistorted RGB images for each view. view number start from 0.
│
├──  pointclouds				
│    └── frame%d.npy			- point cloud for each frame. A numpy array with a size of Nx6, where N is the size of point cloud. Each row is the "x y z r g b". The frame number start from 1.
│
├──  CamPose.inf				-Camera extrinsics. In each row, the 3x4 [R T] matrix is displayed in columns, with the third column followed by columns 1, 2, and 4, where R*X^{camera}+T=X^{world}.
│
└──  Intrinsic.inf				-Camera intrinsics. The format of each intrinsics is: "idx \n fx 0 cx \n 0 fy cy \n 0 0 1 \n \n" (idx starts from 0)

2. Network Training

  • modify configure file config.yml
  • start training cd tools && python train_net.py <gpu id>

2. Network Fine-tuning

  • run cd tools && python finetune.py <gpu id> <path to checkpoint> <the number of resuming epoch>

3. Rendering

  • please see tools/render.ipynb

Dataset

Datasets are now released for non-commercial purposes.

Please see our project page

Now we provide camera parameter conversion code (From Metashape)
