Abstract

Monocular 3D clothed human reconstruction aims to generate a complete and realistic textured 3D avatar from a single image. Existing methods are commonly trained under multi-view supervision with annotated geometric priors, and during inference, these priors are estimated by the pre-trained network from the monocular input. These methods are constrained by three key limitations: texturally by unavailability of training data, geometrically by inaccurate external priors, and systematically by biased single-modality supervision, all leading to suboptimal reconstruction. To address these issues, we propose a novel reconstruction framework, named MultiGO++, which achieves effective systematic geometry-texture collaboration. It consists of three core parts: (1) A multi-source texture synthesis strategy that constructs 15,000+ 3D textured human scans to improve the performance on texture quality estimation in challenge scenarios; (2) A region-aware shape extraction module that extracts and interacts features of each body region to obtain geometry information and a Fourier geometry encoder that mitigates the modality gap to achieve effective geometry learning; (3) A dual reconstruction U-Net that leverages geometry-texture collaborative features to refine and generate high-fidelity textured 3D human meshes. Extensive experiments on two benchmarks and many in-the-wild cases show the superiority of our method over state-of-the-art approaches.

OAHuman: Occlusion-Aware 3D Human Reconstruction from Monocular Images

Monocular 3D human reconstruction in real-world scenarios remains highly challenging due to frequent occlusions from surrounding objects, people, or image truncation. Such occlusions lead to missing geometry and unreliable appearance cues, severely degrading the completeness and realism of reconstructed human models. Although recent neural implicit methods achieve impressive results on clean inputs, they struggle under occlusion due to entangled modeling of shape and texture. In this paper, we propose OAHuman, an occlusion-aware framework that explicitly decouples geometry reconstruction and texture synthesis for robust 3D human modeling from a single RGB image. The core innovation lies in the decoupling-perception paradigm, which addresses the fundamental issue of geometry-texture cross-contamination in occluded regions. Our framework ensures that geometry reconstruction is perceptually reinforced even in occluded areas, isolating it from texture interference. In parallel, texture synthesis is learned exclusively from visible regions, preventing texture errors from being transferred to the occluded areas. This decoupling approach enables OAHuman to achieve robust and high-fidelity reconstruction under occlusion, which has been a long-standing challenge in the field. Extensive experiments on occlusion-rich benchmarks demonstrate that OAHuman achieves superior performance in terms of structural completeness, surface detail, and texture realism, significantly improving monocular 3D human reconstruction under occlusion conditions.

Human Interaction-Aware 3D Reconstruction from a Single Image

Reconstructing textured 3D human models from a single image is fundamental for AR/VR and digital human applications. However, existing methods mostly focus on single individuals and thus fail in multi-human scenes, where naive composition of individual reconstructions often leads to artifacts such as unrealistic overlaps, missing geometry in occluded regions, and distorted interactions. These limitations highlight the need for approaches that incorporate group-level context and interaction priors. We introduce a holistic method that explicitly models both group- and instance-level information. To mitigate perspective-induced geometric distortions, we first transform the input into a canonical orthographic space. Our primary component, Human Group-Instance Multi-View Diffusion (HUG-MVD), then generates complete multi-view normals and images by jointly modeling individuals and group context to resolve occlusions and proximity. Subsequently, the Human Group-Instance Geometric Reconstruction (HUG-GR) module optimizes the geometry by leveraging explicit, physics-based interaction priors to enforce physical plausibility and accurately model inter-human contact. Finally, the multi-view images are fused into a high-fidelity texture. Together, these components form our complete framework, HUG3D. Extensive experiments show that HUG3D significantly outperforms both single-human and existing multi-human methods, producing physically plausible, high-fidelity 3D reconstructions of interacting people from a single image.

MuNet: A Mutualistic Network for Joint 3D Human Mesh Recovery and 3D Clothed Human Reconstruction from Single Images

3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction are inherently related, yet they have long been studied in isolation, thereby overlooking the potential gains of joint optimization. To overcome this limitation, we propose to address these two tasks within a unified framework, which allows their mutual dependencies to be effectively exploited. Building on this idea, we propose MuNet, a mutualistic network for joint 3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction from single images. First, we adopt 2-manifold graphs as a unified representation for all 3D models, enabling consistent modeling across 3D human mesh recovery and clothed human reconstruction. Second, we design an end-to-end graph convolutional network that progressively deforms an initial graph into a 3D human mesh and refines it into a detailed 3D clothed human model. Third, we introduce a mutualistic mechanism that allows reciprocal interaction between the two tasks {during training}, where 3D human mesh recovery provides guidance for 3D clothed human reconstruction, and reconstruction feedback refines the 3D human mesh recovery. We extensively evaluate MuNet on six benchmark datasets for 3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction, including Human3.6M, 3DPW, MPI-INF-3DHP, THuman2.0, CAPE, and RenderPeople. Experimental results demonstrate that MuNet achieves state-of-the-art performance on both tasks across all datasets.
