  1. Estimating Human Shape and Pose from a Single Image Peng Guan Alex Weiss Alexandru Balan Michael J. Black Brown University Department of Computer Science ICCV’ 2009

  2. Body shape and pose from 1 image?

  3. Introduction What we do • Estimating both 3D shape and pose in uncalibrated monocular imagery • Use additional monocular cues including smooth shading • Use GrabCut to produce foreground region • Make height variation concentrated along one shape basis vector, which allows “height constrained fitting” What others do • Estimating 3D human pose in uncalibrated monocular imagery • Use silhouette in multi-camera setting to recover 3D body shape • Most work assumes the existence of a known background to extract foreground silhouette • In previous body models, height is correlated with other shape variations

  6. Body shape/pose from 1 image: Problems • High dimensional body model (shape and pose) – initialization problem. • Background unknown • Single, monocular image • poorly constrained • Shape/Pose ambiguities • Silhouette insufficient

  7. Solution 1: Pose Initialization Better Shape: initialized to mean body shape.

  8. Solution 2: Segmentation C. Rother, V. Kolmogorov, and A. Blake. “GrabCut”: Interactive foreground extraction using iterated graph cuts. SIGGRAPH, 23(3):309–314, 2004.

  9. Problem: Pose/Shape ambiguities Body shape and pose fitted to a single camera view

  10. Solution 3: Height Preserving Shape Space

  11. Shape space without height preserving

  12. Problem: Silhouette not sufficient

  13. Solution 4: Edge Cues

  14. Problem: Shape not well constrained
