Training-Free 3-D Face Avatars Generation by Knowledge Discovering in Foundational Models

An informative 3-D avatar, closely mirroring real-world traits, plays a pivotal role in accessing the metaverse. Traditional methods for creating 3-D avatars usually employ one-to-one training, which restricts avatar diversity. To enhance style diversity in generated 3-D avatars, we utilize synthesized images derived with prompts from ChatGPT in a conversational manner, ultimately resulting in a broader range of 3-D variations. Rather than creating models from scratch, we devise a training-free framework that utilizes established large-scale foundation models. Specifically, we employ a real-world image synthesis technique guided by text prompts that are generated by ChatGPT in a conversational manner, to describe the desired characteristics of the synthesized image. As a result, these informative latent representations can accurately reflect the distinct style of the synthesized image, and further lead to the creation of photorealistic and diverse 3D avatars. Our training-free design allows this proposed method to achieve competitive performance compared to existing generation models, while requiring minimal computational resources.

Abstract

An informative 3-D avatar, closely mirroring real-world traits, plays a pivotal role in accessing the metaverse. Traditional methods for creating 3-D avatars usually employ one-to-one training, which restricts avatar diversity. To enhance style diversity in generated 3-D avatars, we utilize synthesized images derived with prompts from ChatGPT in a conversational manner, ultimately resulting in a broader range of 3-D variations. Rather than creating models from scratch, we devise a training-free framework that utilizes established large-scale foundation models. Specifically, we employ a real-world image synthesis technique guided by text prompts that are generated by ChatGPT in a conversational manner, to describe the desired characteristics of the synthesized image. As a result, these informative latent representations can accurately reflect the distinct style of the synthesized image, and further lead to the creation of photorealistic and diverse 3D avatars. Our training-free design allows this proposed method to achieve competitive performance compared to existing generation models, while requiring minimal computational resources.
