Scalable High-Fidelity 3D Hand Shape Reconstruction via Graph-Image Frequency Mapping and Graph Frequency Decomposition.

Abstract

Despite the impressive performance obtained by recent single-image hand modeling techniques, they lack the capability to capture sufficient details of the 3D hand mesh. This deficiency greatly limits their applications when high-fidelity hand modeling is required, e.g., personalized hand modeling. To address this problem, we design a frequency split network to generate 3D hand meshes using different frequency bands in a coarse-to-fine manner. To capture high-frequency personalized details, we transform the 3D mesh into the frequency domain, and proposed a novel frequency decomposition loss to supervise each frequency component. By leveraging such a coarse-to-fine scheme, hand details that correspond to the higher frequency domain can be preserved. In addition, the proposed network is scalable, and can stop the inference at any resolution level to accommodate different hardware with varying computational powers. To feed the scalable frequency network with frequency split image features, we proposed an image-graph ring feature mapping strategy. To train our network with per-vertex supervision, we use a bidirectional registration strategy to generate a topology-fixed ground-truth. To quantitatively evaluate the performance of our method in terms of recovering personalized shape details, we introduce a new evaluation metric named Mean-frequency Signal-to-Noise Ratio (MSNR) to measure the mean signal-to-noise ratio of mesh signal on each frequency component. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach generates fine-grained details for high-fidelity 3D hand reconstruction, and our evaluation metric is more effective than traditional metrics for measuring mesh details.
