Description

This repository contains the fitting code used for the experiments in Expressive Body Capture: 3D Hands, Face, and Body from a Single Image.

Fitting

Run the following command to execute the code:

python smplifyx/main.py --config cfg_files/fit_smplx.yaml 
    --data_folder DATA_FOLDER 
    --output_folder OUTPUT_FOLDER 
    --visualize="True/False"
    --model_folder MODEL_FOLDER
    --vposer_ckpt VPOSER_FOLDER
    --part_segm_fn smplx_parts_segm.pkl

where the DATA_FOLDER should contain two subfolders, images, where the images are located, and keypoints, where the OpenPose output should be stored.

Different Body Models

To fit SMPL or SMPL+H, replace the yaml configuration file with either fit_smpl.yaml or fit_smplx.yaml, i.e.:

  • for SMPL:
python smplifyx/main.py --config cfg_files/fit_smpl.yaml 
   --data_folder DATA_FOLDER 
   --output_folder OUTPUT_FOLDER 
   --visualize="True/False"
   --model_folder MODEL_FOLDER
   --vposer_ckpt VPOSER_FOLDER
  • for SMPL+H:
python smplifyx/main.py --config cfg_files/fit_smplh.yaml 
   --data_folder DATA_FOLDER 
   --output_folder OUTPUT_FOLDER 
   --visualize="True/False"
   --model_folder MODEL_FOLDER
   --vposer_ckpt VPOSER_FOLDER

Visualizing Results

To visualize the results produced by the method you can run the following script:

python smplifyx/render_results.py --mesh_fns OUTPUT_MESH_FOLDER

where OUTPUT_MESH_FOLDER is the folder that contains the resulting meshes.

Dependencies

Follow the installation instructions for each of the following before using the fitting code.

  1. PyTorch
  2. SMPL-X
  3. VPoser
  4. Homogenus

Optional Dependencies

  1. PyTorch Mesh self-intersection for interpenetration penalty
    • Download the per-triangle part segmentation here
  2. Trimesh for loading triangular meshes
  3. Pyrender for visualization

The code has been tested with Python 3.6, CUDA 10.0, CuDNN 7.3 and PyTorch 1.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.
