Requirements

  • Python 3.6.10

packages

necessary files

mesh_downsampling.npz & DensePose UV data

  • Run the following script to fetch mesh_downsampling.npz & DensePose UV data from other repositories.
bash fetch_data.sh

SMPL model files

Fetch preprocessed data from SPIN.

Download the pre-trained model and put it into the ./data/pretrained_model directory.

After collecting the above necessary files, the directory structure of ./data is expected as follows.

./data
├── dataset_extras
│   └── .npz files
├── J_regressor_extra.npy
├── J_regressor_h36m.npy
├── mesh_downsampling.npz
├── pretrained_model
│   └── PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt
├── smpl
│   ├── SMPL_FEMALE.pkl
│   ├── SMPL_MALE.pkl
│   └── SMPL_NEUTRAL.pkl
├── smpl_mean_params.npz
├── static_fits
│   └── .npy files
└── UV_data
    ├── UV_Processed.mat
    └── UV_symmetry_transforms.mat

Demo

[UPDATE] You can first give it a try on Google Colab using the notebook we have prepared, which is no need to prepare the environment yourself: Open In Colab

Run the demo code.

For image input:

python3 demo.py --checkpoint=data/pretrained_model/PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt --img_file examples/COCO_val2014_000000019667.jpg

For video input:

python3 demo.py --checkpoint=data/pretrained_model/PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt --vid_file examples/flashmob.mp4


Frame by frame reconstruction. Video clipped from here.

Evaluation

COCO Keypoint Localization

  1. Download the preprocessed data coco_2014_val.npz. Put it into the ./data/dataset_extras directory.

  2. Run the COCO evaluation code.

python3 eval_coco.py --checkpoint=data/pretrained_model/PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt

Results in Average Precision (AP):

Method AP ↑ AP50 AP75 APM APL
HMR 18.9 47.5 11.7 21.5 17.0
SPIN 17.3 39.1 13.5 19.0 16.6
Baseline 16.8 38.2 12.8 18.5 16.0
PyMAF 24.6 48.9 22.7 26.0 24.2

Human3.6M / 3DPW

Run the evaluation code. Using --dataset to specify the evaluation dataset.

# Example usage:

# Human3.6M Protocol 2
python3 eval.py --checkpoint=data/pretrained_model/PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt --dataset=h36m-p2 --log_freq=20

# 3DPW
python3 eval.py --checkpoint=data/pretrained_model/PyMAF_model_checkpoint.pt --dataset=3dpw --log_freq=20

Results in Mean Per Joint Position Error (MPJPE):

Method 3DPW ↓ H36M ↓
SPIN 96.9 62.5
VIBE 93.5 65.9
Baseline 98.5 64.8
PyMAF 92.8 57.7

Training

To perform training, we need to collect preprocessed files of training datasets at first.

The preprocessed labels have the same format as SPIN and can be retrieved from here. Please refer to SPIN for more details about data preprocessing.

PyMAF is trained on Human3.6M at the first stage and then trained on the mixture of both 2D and 3D datasets at the second stage. Example usage:

# training on Human3.6M
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 train.py --regressor pymaf_net --single_dataset --misc TRAIN.BATCH_SIZE 64
# training on mixed datasets
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 train.py --regressor pymaf_net --pretrained_checkpoint path/to/checkpoint_file.pt --misc TRAIN.BATCH_SIZE 64

Running the above commands will use Human3.6M or mixed datasets for training, respectively. We can monitor the training process by setting up a TensorBoard at the directory ./logs.
