We present REWIND (Real-Time Egocentric Whole-Body Motion Diffusion), a one-step diffusion model for real-time, high-fidelity human motion estimation from egocentric image inputs. While an existing method for egocentric whole-body (i.e., body and hands) motion estimation is non-real-time and acausal…
To build photorealistic avatars that users can embody, human modelling must be complete (cover the full body), driveable (able to reproduce the current motion and appearance from the user), and generalizable (_i.e._, easily adaptable to novel identities). Towards these goals, _paired_ captures, that…
"Virtual Reality (VR) bares promise of social interactions that can feel more immersive than other media. Key to this is the ability to accurately animate a personalized photorealistic avatar, and hence the acquisition of the labels for headset-mounted camera (HMC) images need to be efficient and ac…
Social presence, the feeling of being there with a "real" person, will fuel the next generation of communication systems driven by digital humans in virtual reality (VR). The best 3D video-realistic VR avatars that minimize the uncanny effect rely on person-specific (PS) models. However, these PS mo…
In this paper, we address the problem of detecting and segmenting partial image blur from a single input image. Instead of assuming particular image priors or requiring additional user annotation, we propose a novel learning framework which jointly solves the tasks of blur kernel estimation and imag…
