随着基于单幅图像的人体网格恢复技术的进步,如何在遮挡等极端场景中提升性能成为研究热点。尽管在遮挡情况下准确获取3D人体姿态存在挑战,但丰富的2D姿态标注仍可被有效利用。本文提出PostoMETRO(姿态标记增强网格变换器),通过令牌级别的方式将抗遮挡的2D姿态表示集成到变换器中。利用专门的姿态标记器,将2D姿态数据高效压缩为紧凑的姿态令牌序列,并与图像令牌一起输入变换器。这一过程不仅确保了图像纹理的丰富表现,还促进了姿态与图像信息的稳健整合。实验结果表明,PostoMETRO在标准和特定遮挡基准上均表现出色,定性结果进一步阐明了2D姿态在3D重建中的重要性。
🔬 方法详解
问题定义:本文旨在解决在遮挡等极端场景下进行3D人体网格恢复的挑战。现有方法主要依赖于直接利用2D姿态坐标来估计3D姿态和网格,导致在复杂场景下性能下降。
核心思路:论文的核心思路是通过姿态标记器将2D姿态数据转化为紧凑的姿态令牌,并与图像令牌结合输入变换器。这种设计旨在增强模型对遮挡的鲁棒性,同时保持对图像纹理的丰富表达。
技术框架:整体架构包括姿态标记器、变换器和解码模块。首先,使用姿态标记器将2D姿态数据压缩为姿态令牌,然后将这些令牌与图像令牌一起输入变换器,最后通过顶点和关节令牌解码出3D坐标。
关键创新:最重要的技术创新在于将抗遮挡的2D姿态表示以令牌方式集成到变换器中,这一方法与现有的直接利用2D坐标的方式有本质区别,能够更好地应对复杂场景。
关键设计:在设计中,采用了专门的姿态标记器来处理2D姿态数据,并在损失函数中考虑了姿态与图像信息的有效结合,以优化3D坐标的恢复精度。

📄 摘要(原文)
With the recent advancements in single-image-based human mesh recovery, there is a growing interest in enhancing its performance in certain extreme scenarios, such as occlusion, while maintaining overall model accuracy. Although obtaining accurately annotated 3D human poses under occlusion is challenging, there is still a wealth of rich and precise 2D pose annotations that can be leveraged. However, existing works mostly focus on directly leveraging 2D pose coordinates to estimate 3D pose and mesh. In this paper, we present PostoMETRO($\textbf{Pos}$e $\textbf{to}$ken enhanced $\textbf{ME}$sh $\textbf{TR}$ansf$\textbf{O}$rmer), which integrates occlusion-resilient 2D pose representation into transformers in a token-wise manner. Utilizing a specialized pose tokenizer, we efficiently condense 2D pose data to a compact sequence of pose tokens and feed them to the transformer together with the image tokens. This process not only ensures a rich depiction of texture from the image but also fosters a robust integration of pose and image information. Subsequently, these combined tokens are queried by vertex and joint tokens to decode 3D coordinates of mesh vertices and human joints. Facilitated by the robust pose token representation and the effective combination, we are able to produce more precise 3D coordinates, even under extreme scenarios like occlusion. Experiments on both standard and occlusion-specific benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of PostoMETRO. Qualitative results further illustrate the clarity of how 2D pose can help 3D reconstruction. Code will be made available.
