Learning Contour-Guided 3D Face Reconstruction with Occlusions

Recently, deep learning-based 3D face reconstruction methods have demonstrated promising advancements in terms of quality and efficiency. Nevertheless, these techniques face challenges in effectively handling occluded scenes and fail to capture intricate geometric facial details. Inspired by the principles of GANs and bump mapping, we have successfully addressed these issues. Our approach aims to deliver comprehensive 3D facial reconstructions, even in the presence of occlusions.While maintaining the overall shape's robustness, we introduce a mid-level shape refinement to the fundamental structure. Furthermore, we illustrate how our method adeptly extends to generate plausible details for obscured facial regions. We offer numerous examples that showcase the effectiveness of our framework in producing realistic results, where traditional methods often struggle. To substantiate the superior adaptability of our approach, we have conducted extensive experiments in the context of general 3D face reconstruction tasks, serving as concrete evidence of its regulatory prowess compared to manual occlusion removal methods.

Abstract

Recently, deep learning-based 3D face reconstruction methods have demonstrated promising advancements in terms of quality and efficiency. Nevertheless, these techniques face challenges in effectively handling occluded scenes and fail to capture intricate geometric facial details. Inspired by the principles of GANs and bump mapping, we have successfully addressed these issues. Our approach aims to deliver comprehensive 3D facial reconstructions, even in the presence of occlusions.While maintaining the overall shape's robustness, we introduce a mid-level shape refinement to the fundamental structure. Furthermore, we illustrate how our method adeptly extends to generate plausible details for obscured facial regions. We offer numerous examples that showcase the effectiveness of our framework in producing realistic results, where traditional methods often struggle. To substantiate the superior adaptability of our approach, we have conducted extensive experiments in the context of general 3D face reconstruction tasks, serving as concrete evidence of its regulatory prowess compared to manual occlusion removal methods.
