Creating photorealistic and temporally coherent animatable human avatars from RGB videos remains challenging. Current methods struggle to capture realistic cloth dynamics, producing over-smoothed appearance or severe artifacts on out-of-distribution poses.
arXiv:2602.24043v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reconstructing 3D clothed humans from monocular images and videos is a fundamental problem with applications in virtual try-on, avatar creation, an...
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.

Accurate monocular 4D hand reconstruction remains challenging. Per-frame discriminative regressors lack temporal context and often produce jittery predictions.
STyMo is a few‑shot motion style transfer method that learns from only seconds of paired data and trains in one to two minutes. It decomposes style into a static posture component and a temporal dynamics component, allowing runtime adjustment of posture intensity, temporal exaggeration, and per‑body‑region style. The approach includes a stylizability gate to avoid artifacts on out‑of‑distribution motions and supports an iterative authoring workflow, with results shown across a range of motion styles and a released dataset for future research.

The paper introduces HyperBones, a real‑time garment simulation framework that combines a reduced‑space neural dynamics simulator with a lightweight neural network correcting Linear Blend Skinning (LBS) at a coarse level, and a convolutional MLP for fine‑scale wrinkle recovery in UV space. By decoupling identity‑specific computation from shape conditioning through a hypernetwork, the method achieves high performance without an offline simulator, delivering physically plausible dynamics across diverse motions and unseen body shapes. Experiments demonstrate a speedup of over 30× compared to state‑of‑the‑art autoregressive neural simulators, reaching interactive inference at roughly 1 ms per frame on a consumer GPU.
