Understanding hand-object interaction (HOI) is fundamental to computer vision, robotics, and AR/VR. However, conventional hand videos often lack essential physical information, such as contact forces and motion dynamics, and are prone to frequent occlusions. To address these challenges, we present G
We propose a generative agent that augments training datasets with synthetic data for model fine-tuning. Unlike prior work, which uniformly samples synthetic data, our agent iteratively generates relevant samples on-the-fly, aligning with the target distribution. It prioritizes synthetic data that c…
Existing 3D mesh shape evaluation metrics mainly focus on the overall shape but are usually less sensitive to local details. This makes them inconsistent with human evaluation as human perception cares about both overall and detailed shape. In this paper we propose an analytic metric named Spectrum…
"Recent years have witnessed considerable achievements in facial avatar reconstruction with neural volume rendering. Despite notable advancements, the reconstruction of complex and dynamic head movements from monocular videos still suffers from capturing and restoring fine-grained details. In this w…
Accurate facial landmark detection on wild images plays an essential role in human-computer interaction, entertainment, and medical applications. Existing approaches have limitations in enforcing 3D consistency while detecting 3D/2D facial landmarks due to the lack of multi-view in-the-wild training…
We present a novel type of neural fields that uses general radial bases for signal representation. State-of-the-art neural fields typically rely on grid-based representations for storing local neural features and N-dimensional linear kernels for interpolating features at continuous query points. The…
Hand trajectory forecasting from egocentric views is crucial for enabling a prompt understanding of human intentions when interacting with AR/VR systems. However, existing methods handle this problem in a 2D image space which is inadequate for 3D real-world applications. In this paper, we set up an…
3D video avatars can empower virtual communications by providing compression, privacy, entertainment, and a sense of presence in AR/VR. Best 3D photo-realistic AR/VR avatars driven by video, that can minimize uncanny effects, rely on person-specific models. However, existing person-specific photo-re…
Example-guided image synthesis has recently been attempted to synthesize an image from a semantic label map and an exemplary image. In the task, the additional exemplar image provides the style guidance that controls the appearance of the synthesized output. Despite the controllability advantage, th…
When people deliver a speech, they naturally move heads, and this rhythmic head motion conveys linguistic information. However, generating a lip-synced video while moving head naturally is challenging. While remarkably successful, existing works either generate still talking-face videos or rely on l…
We devise a cascade GAN approach to generate talking face video, which is robust to different face shapes, view angles, facial characteristics, and noisy audio conditions. Instead of learning a direct mapping from audio to video frames, we propose first to transfer audio to high-level structure, i.e…
Cross-modality generation is an emerging topic that aims to synthesize data in one modality based on information in a different modality. In this paper, we consider a task of such: given an arbitrary audio speech and one lip image of arbitrary target identity, generate synthesized lip movements of t…
