Zusammenfassung:
We propose a method for generating (near) video-realistic animations of real
humans under user control. In contrast to conventional human character
rendering, we do not require the availability of a production-quality
photo-realistic 3D model of the human, but instead rely on a video sequence in
conjunction with a (medium-quality) controllable 3D template model of the
person. With that, our approach significantly reduces production cost compared
to conventional rendering approaches based on production-quality 3D models, and
can also be used to realistically edit existing videos. Technically, this is
achieved by training a neural network that translates simple synthetic images
of a human character into realistic imagery. For training our networks, we
first track the 3D motion of the person in the video using the template model,
and subsequently generate a synthetically rendered version of the video. These
images are then used to train a conditional generative adversarial network that
translates synthetic images of the 3D model into realistic imagery of the
human. We evaluate our method for the reenactment of another person that is
tracked in order to obtain the motion data, and show video results generated
from artist-designed skeleton motion. Our results outperform the
state-of-the-art in learning-based human image synthesis. Project page:
