XNect: Real-time Multi-Person 3D Motion Capture with a Single RGB Camera
We present a real-time approach for multi-person 3D motion capture at over 30
fps using a single RGB camera. It operates successfully in generic scenes which
may contain occlusions by objects and by other people. Our method operates in
subsequent stages. The first stage is a convolutional neural network (CNN) that
estimates 2D and 3D pose features along with identity assignments for all
visible joints of all individuals.We contribute a new architecture for this
CNN, called SelecSLS Net, that uses novel selective long and short range skip
connections to improve the information flow allowing for a drastically faster
network without compromising accuracy. In the second stage, a fully connected
neural network turns the possibly partial (on account of occlusion) 2Dpose and
3Dpose features for each subject into a complete 3Dpose estimate per
individual. The third stage applies space-time skeletal model fitting to the
predicted 2D and 3D pose per subject to further reconcile the 2D and 3D pose,
and enforce temporal coherence. Our method returns the full skeletal pose in
joint angles for each subject. This is a further key distinction from previous
work that do not produce joint angle results of a coherent skeleton in real
time for multi-person scenes. The proposed system runs on consumer hardware at
a previously unseen speed of more than 30 fps given 512x320 images as input
while achieving state-of-the-art accuracy, which we will demonstrate on a range
of challenging real-world scenes.Comment: To appear in ACM Transactions on Graphics (SIGGRAPH) 202
XNect: Real-time Multi-person 3D Human Pose Estimation with a Single RGB Camera
We present a real-time approach for multi-person 3D motion capture at over 30 fps using a single RGB camera. It operates in generic scenes and is robust to difficult occlusions both by other people and objects. Our method operates in subsequent stages. The first stage is a convolutional neural network (CNN) that estimates 2D and 3D pose features along with identity assignments for all visible joints of all individuals. We contribute a new architecture for this CNN, called SelecSLS Net, that uses novel selective long and short range skip connections to improve the information flow allowing for a drastically faster network without compromising accuracy. In the second stage, a fully-connected neural network turns the possibly partial (on account of occlusion) 2D pose and 3D pose features for each subject into a complete 3D pose estimate per individual. The third stage applies space-time skeletal model fitting to the predicted 2D and 3D pose per subject to further reconcile the 2D and 3D pose, and enforce temporal coherence. Our method returns the full skeletal pose in joint angles for each subject. This is a further key distinction from previous work that neither extracted global body positions nor joint angle results of a coherent skeleton in real time for multi-person scenes. The proposed system runs on consumer hardware at a previously unseen speed of more than 30 fps given 512x320 images as input while achieving state-of-the-art accuracy, which we will demonstrate on a range of challenging real-world scenes
Learning to Reconstruct Shapes from Unseen Classes
From a single image, humans are able to perceive the full 3D shape of an
object by exploiting learned shape priors from everyday life. Contemporary
single-image 3D reconstruction algorithms aim to solve this task in a similar
fashion, but often end up with priors that are highly biased by training
classes. Here we present an algorithm, Generalizable Reconstruction (GenRe),
designed to capture more generic, class-agnostic shape priors. We achieve this
with an inference network and training procedure that combine 2.5D
representations of visible surfaces (depth and silhouette), spherical shape
representations of both visible and non-visible surfaces, and 3D voxel-based
representations, in a principled manner that exploits the causal structure of
how 3D shapes give rise to 2D images. Experiments demonstrate that GenRe
performs well on single-view shape reconstruction, and generalizes to diverse
novel objects from categories not seen during training.Comment: NeurIPS 2018 (Oral). The first two authors contributed equally to

SuperPoint: Self-Supervised Interest Point Detection and Description
This paper presents a self-supervised framework for training interest point
detectors and descriptors suitable for a large number of multiple-view geometry
problems in computer vision. As opposed to patch-based neural networks, our
fully-convolutional model operates on full-sized images and jointly computes
pixel-level interest point locations and associated descriptors in one forward
pass. We introduce Homographic Adaptation, a multi-scale, multi-homography
approach for boosting interest point detection repeatability and performing
cross-domain adaptation (e.g., synthetic-to-real). Our model, when trained on
the MS-COCO generic image dataset using Homographic Adaptation, is able to
repeatedly detect a much richer set of interest points than the initial
pre-adapted deep model and any other traditional corner detector. The final
system gives rise to state-of-the-art homography estimation results on HPatches
when compared to LIFT, SIFT and ORB.Comment: Camera-ready version for CVPR 2018 Deep Learning for Visual SLAM
