Robust 3D Human Avatar Reconstruction From Monocular Videos Using Depth Optimization and Camera Pose Estimation

초록

This paper presents a novel approach for 3D human avatar reconstruction from monocular RGB videos, overcoming the limitations of existing template-based methods such as BANMo. We introduce a two-fold optimization framework: first, using RelPose++ for accurate camera pose estimation and second, incorporating depth maps for enhancing 3D shape reconstruction. Our method minimizes so-called intra-frame and inter-frame distances, optimizing both detailed frame-level accuracy and maintaining temporal coherence across multiple video frames. Extensive experiments on the MEAD, Multiface and FEED datasets demonstrate the superiority of our approach in generating realistic, deformable 3D avatars, achieving significant improvements in Chamfer distance and F-score compared to existing methods. This framework is particularly effective in complex scenarios, such as bust-shot videos with partial views of subjects, offering robust and high-quality 3D reconstructions.
