In this paper, a novel video classification method is presented that aims to recognize different categories of third-person videos efficiently. Our motivation is to achieve a light model that could be trained with insufficient training…
Given a single image of a general object such as a chair, could we also restore its articulated 3D shape similar to human modeling, so as to animate its plausible articulations and diverse motions? This is an interesting new question that…
Understanding dynamic scenes from casual videos is critical for scalable robot learning, yet four-dimensional (4D) reconstruction under strictly monocular settings remains highly ill-posed. To address this challenge, our key insight is that…

We present a method to learn single-view reconstruction of the 3D shape, pose, and texture of objects from categorized natural images in a self-supervised manner. Since this is a severely ill-posed problem, carefully designing a training…
Although commercial and open-source software exist to reconstruct a static object from a sequence recorded with an RGB-D sensor, there is a lack of tools that build rigged models of articulated objects that deform realistically and can be…
Existing methods for 3D tracking from monocular RGB videos predominantly consider articulated and rigid objects. Modelling dense non-rigid object deformations in this setting remained largely unaddressed so far, although such effects can…
Video Instance Segmentation is a fundamental computer vision task that deals with segmenting and tracking object instances across a video sequence. Most existing methods typically accomplish this task by employing a multi-stage top-down…

Reconstructing people, objects, and their interactions in 3D is a long-standing goal for intelligent systems. Often the input is RGB video from a moving camera, making the task ill-posed; depth is ambiguous, humans and objects occlude each…
We present 4RC, a unified feed-forward framework for 4D reconstruction from monocular videos. Unlike existing approaches that typically decouple motion from geometry or produce limited 4D attributes such as sparse trajectories or two-view…
In this paper, we propose ARCH (Animatable Reconstruction of Clothed Humans), a novel end-to-end framework for accurate reconstruction of animation-ready 3D clothed humans from a monocular image. Existing approaches to digitize 3D humans…
