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…

To understand how people look, interact, or perform tasks, we need to quickly and accurately capture their 3D body, face, and hands together from an RGB image. Most existing methods focus only on parts of the body. A few recent approaches…

Single-image super-resolution (SISR) typically focuses on restoring various degraded low-resolution (LR) images to a single high-resolution (HR) image. However, during SISR tasks, it is often challenging for models to simultaneously…

In this paper, we address the problem of person re-identification, which refers to associating the persons captured from different cameras. We propose a simple yet effective human part-aligned representation for handling the body part…

Modeling the shape of garments has received much attention, but most existing approaches assume the garments to be worn by someone, which constrains the range of shapes they can assume. In this work, we address shape recovery when garments…

Cloth-changing person re-identification aims at recognizing the same person with clothing changes across non-overlapping cameras. Advanced methods either resort to identity-related auxiliary modalities (e.g., sketches, silhouettes, and…

Implicit functions represented as deep learning approximations are powerful for reconstructing 3D surfaces. However, they can only produce static surfaces that are not controllable, which provides limited ability to modify the resulting…
