HandFlow: Fully Generative 4D Hand Recovery with Flow Matching
Accurate monocular 4D hand reconstruction remains challenging. Per-frame discriminative regressors lack temporal context and often produce jittery predictions.
Hand Pose Estimation (HPE) is a fundamental technology for various applications such as AR/VR and robotics. In these applications, the visibility of each hand joint in the image is crucial for assessing the reliability of estimation results under occlusion.

Human mesh recovery (HMR) aims to recover 3D human meshes from images. Most existing HMR benchmarks and methods focus on either multi-person reconstruction from a single view or single-person reconstruction from multiple views, where the number of subjects and the scene scale are relatively limited.

arXiv:2607. 00716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Skeleton-based action recognition has achieved remarkable success by exploiting joint coordinates and their topological connections, yet prevailing methods overwhelmingly assume complete and clean skeleton inputs.
arXiv:2607. 17790v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Egocentric devices, such as wearable front-facing cameras, provide a unique perspective for capturing the continuous interaction between a human viewer and the surrounding environment.
arXiv:2606. 06872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating hand-surface contact pressure from an egocentric view is crucial for AR/VR devices, robotic imitation, and ergonomic analysis.
Estimating physical pressure from vision is essential for understanding contact-rich hand-object interaction. However, prior vision-based pressure estimation methods are largely limited to planar surfaces and single image input, making them difficult to apply to dynamic hand-object interaction with diverse objects.
Egocentric devices, such as wearable front-facing cameras, provide a unique perspective for capturing the continuous interaction between a human viewer and the surrounding environment. A holistic and efficient multimodal model capable of reconstructing this 4D representation is therefore highly desirable.
arXiv:2607. 15868v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human motion capture from head-mounted devices (HMDs) offers a scalable way to acquire real-world human motion and interaction data, which is crucial for applications in embodied AI and VR/AR.
Skeleton-based action recognition has achieved remarkable success by exploiting joint coordinates and their topological connections, yet prevailing methods overwhelmingly assume complete and clean skeleton inputs. In real-world deployments, such as egocentric vision, crowded surveillance, wearable devices, or edge robotics, limited field-of-view (FoV) frequently causes substantial joint visibility dropout, leading to severe performance degradation that existing models are largely unprepared to handle.
