We consider the problem of human pose estimation. While much recent work has focused on the RGB domain, these techniques are inherently under-constrained since there can be many 3D configurations that explain the same 2D projection. To this…

Reconstructing high-fidelity 3D facial texture from a single image is a quite challenging task due to the lack of complete face information and the domain gap between the 3D face and 2D image. Further, obtaining re-renderable 3D faces has…
