Real-time Self-contact Retargeting of Avatars down to Finger Level

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Mathias Guy Delahaye

We interact with the world through a body that includes hands and fingers. Likewise, providing an avatar allowing the control of a virtual body with fingers is an important step to improve the user experience in VR. When the user and their avatar skeleton ...

From finger animation to full-body embodiment of avatars with different morphologies and proportions

Mathias Guy Delahaye

VR (Virtual Reality) is a real-time simulation that creates the subjective illusion of being in a virtual world.This thesis explores how integrating the user's body and fingers can be achieved and beneficial for the user to experience VR.At the advent of V ...

3DHumanGAN: 3D-Aware Human Image Generation with 3D Pose Mapping

Zhuoqian Yang, Siyuan Li

We present 3DHumanGAN, a 3D-aware generative adversarial network that synthesizes photo-like images of fullbody humans with consistent appearances under different view-angles and body-poses. To tackle the representational and computational challenges in sy ...

Adversarial Parametric Pose Prior

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Anastasia Remizova, Andrey Davydov, Victor Constantin, Sina Honari

The Skinned Multi-Person Linear (SMPL) model represents human bodies by mapping pose and shape parameters to body meshes. However, not all pose and shape parameter values yield physically-plausible or even realistic body meshes. In other words, SMPL is und ...

XNect: Real-time Multi-Person 3D Motion Capture with a Single RGB Camera

Pascal Fua, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Gerard Pons Moll

We present a real-time approach for multi-person 3D motion capture at over 30 fps using a single RGB camera. It operates successfully in generic scenes which may contain occlusions by objects and by other people. Our method operates in subsequent stages. T ...

Hyper-reduced order models for parametrized unsteady Navier-Stokes equations on domains with variable shape

Andrea Manzoni, Niccolò Dal Santo

In this work, we set up a new, general, and computationally efficient way to tackle parametrized fluid flows modeled through unsteady Navier-Stokes equations defined on domains with variable shape, when relying on the reduced basis method. We easily descri ...

Phace: Physics-based Face Modeling and Animation

Mark Pauly, Ladislav Kavan, Alexandru Eugen Ichim

We present a novel physics-based approach to facial animation. Contrary to commonly used generative methods, our solution computes facial expressions by minimizing a set of non-linear potential energies that model the physical interaction of passive flesh, ...

Physics-based Reconstruction and Animation of Humans

Alexandru Eugen Ichim

Creating digital representations of humans is of utmost importance for applications ranging from entertainment (video games, movies) to human-computer interaction and even psychiatrical treatments. What makes building credible digital doubles difficult is ...

Building and Animating User-Specific Volumetric Face Rigs

Mark Pauly, Ladislav Kavan, Alexandru Eugen Ichim, Merlin Eléazar Nimier-David

Currently, the two main approaches to realistic facial animation are 1) blendshape models and 2) physics-based simulation. Blendshapes are fast and directly controllable, but it is not easy to incorporate features such as dynamics, collision resolution, or ...
