PiG-Avatar generates realistic 3D avatars with neural fields

Researchers have introduced PiG-Avatar, a novel method for generating realistic 3D avatars. This approach decouples avatar geometry from body template surfaces, allowing for more accurate representation of complex clothing and non-rigid movements. PiG-Avatar utilizes a neural field to guide Gaussian representations, enabling real-time rendering and achieving state-of-the-art quality on benchmarks. AI

IMPACT Enables more realistic and dynamic 3D avatar generation, potentially impacting virtual reality, gaming, and digital content creation.

    PiG-Avatar: Hierarchical Neural-Field-Guided Gaussian Avatars

    Existing Gaussian avatar methods typically parameterize geometry on a body-template surface, which entangles the avatar's representation space with the template's deformation space and limits the capture of layered, off-body, and non-rigid clothing geometry. We present PiG-Avatar…

    DAMA: Disentangled Body-Anchored Gaussians for Controllable Multi-Layered Avatars

    Existing 3D clothed avatar reconstruction methods achieve high visual fidelity but ignore geometric structure and physical plausibility. They either model clothed humans as a single deformable surface or attempt garment disentanglement without enforcing geometric constraints, res…
