Geometry-Contrastive Transformer for Generalized 3D Pose Transfer
share
We present a customized 3D mesh Transformer model for the pose transfer task. As the 3D pose transfer essentially is a deformation procedure dependent on the given meshes, the intuition of this work is to perceive the geometric inconsistency between the given meshes with the powerful self-attention mechanism. Specifically, we propose a novel geometry-contrastive Transformer that has an efficient 3D structured perceiving ability to the global geometric inconsistencies across the given meshes. Moreover, locally, a simple yet efficient central geodesic contrastive loss is further proposed to improve the regional geometric-inconsistency learning. At last, we present a latent isometric regularization module together with a novel semi-synthesized dataset for the cross-dataset 3D pose transfer task towards unknown spaces. The massive experimental results prove the efficacy of our approach by showing state-of-the-art quantitative performances on SMPL-NPT, FAUST and our new proposed dataset SMG-3D datasets, as well as promising qualitative results on MG-cloth and SMAL datasets. It's demonstrated that our method can achieve robust 3D pose transfer and be generalized to challenging meshes from unknown spaces on cross-dataset tasks. The code and dataset are made available.
