Deep Cost Ray Fusion for Sparse Depth Video Completion

In this paper, we present a learning-based framework for sparse depth video completion. Given a sparse depth map and a color image at a certain viewpoint, our approach makes a cost volume that is constructed on depth hypothesis planes. To effectively fuse sequential cost volumes of the multiple viewpoints for improved depth completion, we introduce a learning-based cost volume fusion framework, namely RayFusion, that effectively leverages the attention mechanism for each pair of overlapped rays in adjacent cost volumes. As a result of leveraging feature statistics accumulated over time, our proposed framework consistently outperforms or rivals state-of-the-art approaches on diverse indoor and outdoor datasets, including the KITTI Depth Completion benchmark, VOID Depth Completion benchmark, and ScanNetV2 dataset, using much fewer network parameters.

Deep Deformable 3D Caricatures with Learned Shape Control

A 3D caricature is an exaggerated 3D depiction of a human face. The goal of this paper is to model the variations of 3D caricatures in a compact parameter space so that we can provide a useful data-driven toolkit for handling 3D caricature deformations. To achieve the goal, we propose an MLP-based framework for building a deformable surface model, which takes a latent code and produces a 3D surface. In the framework, a SIREN MLP models a function that takes a 3D position on a fixed template surface and returns a 3D displacement vector for the input position. We create variations of 3D surfaces by learning a hypernetwork that takes a latent code and produces the parameters of the MLP. Once learned, our deformable model provides a nice editing space for 3D caricatures, supporting label-based semantic editing and point-handle-based deformation, both of which produce highly exaggerated and natural 3D caricature shapes. We also demonstrate other applications of our deformable model, such as automatic 3D caricature creation.
