Installation

Please see INSTALL.md for manual installation.

Installation using docker

Please see docker/README.md.

Thanks to Zhaoyi Wan for providing the docker implementation.

Run the code on the custom dataset

Please see CUSTOM.

Run the code on People-Snapshot

Please see INSTALL.md to download the dataset.

We provide the pretrained models at here.

Process People-Snapshot

We already provide some processed data. If you want to process more videos of People-Snapshot, you could use tools/process_snapshot.py.

You can also visualize smpl parameters of People-Snapshot with tools/vis_snapshot.py.

Visualization on People-Snapshot

Take the visualization on female-3-casual as an example. The command lines for visualization are recorded in visualize.sh.

  1. Download the corresponding pretrained model and put it to $ROOT/data/trained_model/if_nerf/female3c/latest.pth.

  2. Visualization:

    • Visualize novel views of single frame
    python run.py --type visualize --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c vis_novel_view True num_render_views 144
    

    monocular

    • Visualize views of dynamic humans with fixed camera
    python run.py --type visualize --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c vis_novel_pose True
    

    monocular

    • Visualize mesh
    # generate meshes
    python run.py --type visualize --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c vis_mesh True train.num_workers 0
    # visualize a specific mesh
    python tools/render_mesh.py --exp_name female3c --dataset people_snapshot --mesh_ind 226
    

    monocular

  3. The results of visualization are located at $ROOT/data/render/female3c and $ROOT/data/perform/female3c.

Training on People-Snapshot

Take the training on female-3-casual as an example. The command lines for training are recorded in train.sh.

  1. Train:
    # training
    python train_net.py --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c resume False
    # distributed training
    python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=4 train_net.py --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c resume False gpus "0, 1, 2, 3" distributed True
    
  2. Train with white background:
    # training
    python train_net.py --cfg_file configs/snapshot_exp/snapshot_f3c.yaml exp_name female3c resume False white_bkgd True
    
  3. Tensorboard:
    tensorboard --logdir data/record/if_nerf
    

Run the code on ZJU-MoCap

Please see INSTALL.md to download the dataset.

We provide the pretrained models at here.

Potential problems of provided smpl parameters

  1. The newly fitted parameters locate in new_params. Currently, the released pretrained models are trained on previously fitted parameters, which locate in params.
  2. The smpl parameters of ZJU-MoCap have different definition from the one of MPI's smplx.
    • If you want to extract vertices from the provided smpl parameters, please use zju_smpl/extract_vertices.py.
    • The reason that we use the current definition is described at here.

It is okay to train Neural Body with smpl parameters fitted by smplx.

Test on ZJU-MoCap

The command lines for test are recorded in test.sh.

Take the test on sequence 313 as an example.

  1. Download the corresponding pretrained model and put it to $ROOT/data/trained_model/if_nerf/xyzc_313/latest.pth.
  2. Test on training human poses:
    python run.py --type evaluate --cfg_file configs/zju_mocap_exp/latent_xyzc_313.yaml exp_name xyzc_313
    
  3. Test on unseen human poses:
    python run.py --type evaluate --cfg_file configs/zju_mocap_exp/latent_xyzc_313.yaml exp_name xyzc_313 test_novel_pose True
