arXiv:2606. 31981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Creating photorealistic, animatable 3D human avatars from monocular images still largely depends on Linear Blend Skinning (LBS) and parametric body models, which constrain expressivity and often introduce artifacts due to imperfect fitting.
arXiv:2609.36937v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human image animation aims to transfer motion from a driving video to subjects in a reference image. Despite remarkable progress in video generation,...
arXiv:2608. 19900v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For full-body avatars, modeling surface dynamics is crucial for overcoming the uncanny valley and achieving perceptual realism.
For full-body avatars, modeling surface dynamics is crucial for overcoming the uncanny valley and achieving perceptual realism. Person-agnostic methods recover static 3D avatars from monocular images, videos, or text prompts, but their skeleton-driven animations lack realistic surface dynamics such as clothing wrinkles.
arXiv:2608.31113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce BLARM, a feed-forward method for video-driven 3D mesh animation. Given a monocular video and a static object mesh, BLARM predicts a tempor...
3D Gaussian Splatting has achieved remarkable success in photorealistic and efficient rendering, leading to a rapid increase in 3D assets represented by 3D Gaussian primitives. Directly rigging these assets with arbitrary skeleton topologies is highly desirable.
arXiv:2606. 30347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present FFAvatar, a Transformer-based 3D Gaussian framework for fast construction of high-quality and animatable 4D head avatars from one or more reference portrait images.
arXiv:2606. 06903v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human image animation aims to generate a video from a static reference image, guided by pose information extracted from a driving video.
arXiv:2610.02207v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 3D Gaussian avatars support fast rendering, however, their real-time animation is often challenged by the costly neural inference. We address this bo...
World models endow perceptual systems with the ability to predict how scenes evolve under interaction. They are most beneficial when trained on diverse volumes of data, to instill a rich prior into do...
