Official code will be released soon for ICCV 2023 paper AG3D: Learning to Generate 3D Avatars from 2D Image Collections. Learned from 2D image collections, AG3D synthesizes novel 3D humans with high-quality appearance and geometry, different identities and clothing styles including loose clothing such as skirts.

• [2023/09/13] Inference codes and evaluation are released!
• [2023/07/14] AG3D is accepted to ICCV 2023!

• If you want to train a 3D generative model of humans from your own 2D image collections.
• Our model can generate:
  • image
    • posed/canonical human RGB
    • posed/canonical human normal
    • raw rendering
  • mesh:
    • 3D corresponding clothed human geometry
  • animation
  • interpolation
  • novel view synthesis
• We also provide our pretrained models from DeepFashion and UBCFashion. You can easily finetune them with your own dataset.

• 1–8 high-end NVIDIA GPUs. We have done all testing and development using V100 and A100 GPUs.
• 64-bit Python 3.8 and PyTorch 1.11.0 (or later). See https://pytorch.org for PyTorch install instructions.
• CUDA toolkit 11.3 or later.
• pytorch3d. See https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/blob/main/INSTALL.md for install instructions.

Clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/zj-dong/AG3D.git
cd AG3D

We suggest to use anaconda to manage the python environments:

conda env create -f env.yml
conda activate ag3d
python setup.py install
