Human-LRM introduces a template-free, three-stage method for reconstructing high-fidelity 3D human geometry and appearance from a single image. It leverages a generalizable NeRF approach guided by a conditional diffusion model to enhance details and plausibly hallucinate occluded regions, achieving state-of-the-art performance across geometry and appearance metrics with robust generalization.

Key insights

  • Combining a generalizable NeRF (LRM) with a conditional diffusion model in a coarse-to-fine manner effectively addresses the challenge of high-fidelity 3D human digitalization, particularly for fine details and occluded areas.
  • Diffusion models can be effectively conditioned on coarse 3D priors (rendered RGB, depth, weights sum from initial NeRF) and global image features to generate multi-view consistent, photo-realistic novel images for 3D guidance.
  • Employing Signed Distance Functions (SDF) and supervising with normal and depth maps during NeRF training significantly improves the accuracy and detail of the reconstructed 3D geometry.
