	LPSNet: End-to-End Human Pose and Shape Estimation with Lensless Imaging CVPR, 2024 Code Lensless imaging system can have a smaller size, simpler structure and stronger privacy protection attributes, and hence can be adapted to a variety of complex environments. In this paper, we propose the first end-to-end framework to recover 3D human poses and shapes from lensless measurements, to our best knowledge.
	Joint2Human: High-quality 3D Human Generation via Compact Spherical Embedding of 3D Joints CVPR, 2024 Code 3D human generation is increasingly significant in various applications. However, the direct use of 2D generative methods in 3D generation often results in significant loss of local details, while methods that reconstruct geometry from generated images struggle with global view consistency. In this work, we introduce Joint2Human, a novel method that leverages 2D diffusion models to generate detailed 3D human geometry directly, ensuring both global structure and local details.
	High-Quality Animatable Dynamic Garment Reconstruction from Monocular Videos IEEE T-CSVT, 2023 Code Much progress has been made in reconstructing garments from an image or a video. However, none of existing works meet the expectations of digitizing high-quality animatable dynamic garments that can be adjusted to various unseen poses. In this paper, we propose the first method to recover high-quality animatable dynamic garments from monocular videos without depending on scanned data.
	Towards Grouping in Large Scenes with Occlusion-aware Spatio-temporal Transformers IEEE T-CSVT, 2023 Code Group detection, especially for large-scale scenes, has many potential applications for public safety and smart cities. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end framework, GroupTransformer, for group detection in large-scale scenes.

We also contribute a benchmark dataset, LargeCrowd, for crowd reconstruction in a large scene.
	Learning Semantic-Aware Disentangled Representation for Flexible 3D Human Body Editing CVPR, 2023 Code 3D human body representation learning has received increasing attention in recent years. However, existing works cannot flexibly, controllably and accurately represent human bodies, limited by coarse semantics and unsatisfactory representation capability, particularly in the absence of supervised data. In this paper, we propose a human body representation with fine-grained semantics and high reconstruction-accuracy in an unsupervised setting.
	MILI: Multi-person Inference from a Low-resolution Image Fundamental Research 2023 Code Existing multi-person reconstruction methods require the human bodies in the input image to occupy a considerable portion of the picture. However, low-resolution human objects are ubiquitous due to trade-off between the field of view and target distance given a limited camera resolution. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end multi-task framework for multi-person inference from a low-resolution image (MILI).
	High-Quality Reconstruction of Depth Maps From Graph-Based Non-Uniform Sampling IEEE TMM, 2023 Lensless imaging system can have a smaller size, simpler structure and stronger privacy protection attributes, and hence can be adapted to a variety of complex environments.

We propose a novel multi-hypothesis approach, MHHMR, for human mesh recovery, which can efficiently and adequately learn the feature representation of multiple hypotheses.
	Learning to Infer Inner-Body under Clothing from Monocular Video IEEE TVCG, 2022 Code Dataset Accurately estimating the human inner-body under clothing is very important for body measurement, virtual try-on and VR/AR applications. In this paper, we propose the first method to allow everyone to easily reconstruct their own 3D inner-body under daily clothing from a self-captured video with the mean reconstruction error of 0.73cm within 15s. This avoids privacy concerns arising from nudity or minimal clothing.

To remedy this, we propose a novel tensor completion method equipped with double priors on the latent tensor, named tensor completion from structurally-missing entries by low tensor train (TT) rankness and fiber-wise sparsity.
