We address the problem of reposing an image of a human into any desired novel pose. This conditional image-generation task requires reasoning about the 3D structure of the human, including self-occluded body parts. Most prior works are…

Human bodies exhibit various shapes for different identities or poses, but the body shape has certain similarities in structure and thus can be embedded in a low-dimensional space. This paper presents an autoencoder-like network…
