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.

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.

The key challenge in articulated 3D object generation from a single image is accurately predicting the underlying kinematic structure. Existing methods either infer kinematic parameters directly from a static image that lacks dynamic part-level kinematic relationships, or estimate parameters from visual dynamics generated from a single image, which is prone to accumulated errors of two steps.
