OmniFit: Multi-modal 3D Body Fitting via Scale-agnostic Dense Landmark Prediction

The representation of 3D clothed humans as standardized 2D UV texture and displacement maps over an underlying body model has long been studied. This compact representation is enticing as it enables pretrained image networks to process, generate, and edit 3D avatars, but is only useful if scans are accurately aligned and brought into correspondence via high-fidelity registration. This prerequisite has never been met, which we argue explains the limited quality of prior UV-based methods for clothed humans. Despite its significance, no public method produces high-fidelity SMPL(-X)+D registrations with UV texture from arbitrary clothed scans. We present AvaImg, a multi-stage optimization pipeline, to close this gap: it enforces body-inside-clothing constraint via signed winding numbers, made viable by a three-level efficiency cascade (~10x runtime reduced, ~95% storage saved), and recovers fine surface detail using coarse-to-fine displacement optimization. AvaImg outperforms all baselines in body fitting, shape estimation, and surface registration across six datasets, yielding textured registrations near-indistinguishable from scans (PSNR=34.48dB). For validation of AvaImg's Avatar-as-Image representation as imminently compatible with image foundation models, we auto-encode our UV maps via the frozen FLUX VAE. This achieves only 0.76mm added Chamfer error relative to scan and shows that the resulting maps lie within natural-image distributions, supporting the use of 2D generative priors for 3D avatar generation.

Detailed and photorealistic 3D human modeling is essential for various applications and has seen tremendous progress. However, full-body reconstruction from a monocular RGB image remains challenging due to the ill-posed nature of the problem and sophisticated clothing topology with self-occlusions. In this paper, we propose PSHuman, a novel framework that explicitly reconstructs human meshes utilizing priors from the multiview diffusion model. It is found that directly applying multiview diffusion on single-view human images leads to severe geometric distortions, especially on generated faces. To address it, we propose a cross-scale diffusion that models the joint probability distribution of global full-body shape and local facial characteristics, enabling detailed and identity-preserved novel-view generation without any geometric distortion. Moreover, to enhance cross-view body shape consistency of varied human poses, we condition the generative model on parametric models like SMPL-X, which provide body priors and prevent unnatural views inconsistent with human anatomy. Leveraging the generated multi-view normal and color images, we present SMPLX-initialized explicit human carving to recover realistic textured human meshes efficiently. Extensive experimental results and quantitative evaluations on CAPE and THuman2.1 datasets demonstrate PSHumans superiority in geometry details, texture fidelity, and generalization capability.

Reconstructing animatable 3D human avatars from monocular video is a fundamental problem in computer vision with broad applications in AR/VR and digital content creation. Existing approaches typically couple parametric body models with neural rendering or 3D Gaussian splatting and optimize all body regions jointly from short videos, which often degrades fidelity in the visible areas. To overcome this limitation, we introduce FlexiAvatar, a unified framework that explicitly optimizes only the visible body regions, effectively eliminating artifacts arising from unobserved limbs. Our method integrates occlusion-robust SMPL-X tracking with part-specific residual refinement to capture high-frequency geometric and appearance details. To complete entirely unseen regions (e.g., back views), we leverage a diffusion-based approach to generate texture consistent with the observed appearance. Experiments on full-body (NeuMan, ZJU-MoCap, WildAvatar), upper/half-body (talk-show clips), and head-only (INSTA) inputs show that FlexiAvatar delivers consistently higher reconstruction quality, outperforming state-of-the-art methods by an average PSNR improvement of approximately 3% across datasets. Finally, by restricting optimization to observed regions, our method reduces the effective number of Gaussians that must be optimized and rendered, leading to reduced runtime and memory overhead in partial-visibility scenarios.
