3D Human Poses from/with Natural Language.

This repository groups the official PyTorch implementations for the following two papers:

• "PoseScript: 3D Human Poses from Natural Language", (ECCV 2022). See branch posescript for the original code version.
• "PoseFix: Correcting 3D Human Poses with Natural Language", (ICCV 2023)

The PoseScript (download last version) and the PoseFix (download) datasets contain both human-written texts collected on Amazon Mechanical Turk and texts produced by the above-mentionned pipelines. Once downloaded, explore PoseScript & explore PoseFix.

This code is divided in several parts, presented below. Click on the links to access to the respective READMEs, so as to get more details, to get instructions to train & evaluate the models, or to explore their results.

Setup

:snake: Create python environment

From the main code directory:

pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py develop

If problems with OpenGL (setting: linux, anaconda3), check here.

Note: using cuda version 10.2 (please modify requirements.txt otherwise).

You may also have to run the following in a python interpreter:

import nltk
nltk.download('punkt')

:open_file_folder: Define important paths

:warning: Please change paths in ./src/text2pose/config.py following your own preferences.

• GENERAL_EXP_OUTPUT_DIR: where models will be saved (along with logs, generated poses...)
• POSESCRIPT_LOCATION: where PoseScript is located (vocabulary files & files related to automatic captions will be generated into this directory).
• POSESFIX_LOCATION: where PoseFix is located (vocabulary files & files related to automatic modifiers will be generated into this directory).
• SMPLH_BODY_MODEL_PATH: where SMPL-H body models are located.
• AMASS_FILE_LOCATION: where AMASS is located.
• BABEL_LOCATION: where BABEL is located.
• GLOVE_DIR: where glove.840B.300d.txt is located (unzip the downloaded archive).
• TRANSFORMER_CACHE_DIR: where the pretrained transformer checkpoints are located; see section :books: Download language models.

Note: the file ./src/text2pose/shortname_2_model_path.txt (initially empty) holds correspondences between full model paths and model shortnames, for readable communication between generative and retrieval models. Lines should have the following format:

<model_shortname>    <model_full_path>

:closed_book: Generate the vocabulary

:books: Download language models

Download HuggingFace checkpoints, by running the following python script:

import os
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
import config

model_type = "distilbert-base-uncased"

# download the tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_type)
tokenizer.save_pretrained(os.path.join(config.TRANSFORMER_CACHE_DIR, model_type))

# download the encoder
text_enc = AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_type)
text_enc.save_pretrained(os.path.join(config.TRANSFORMER_CACHE_DIR, model_type))

Explore datasets

After downloading the datasets, run the following:

streamlit run <dataset>/explore_<dataset>.py

with <dataset> being either posescript or posefix.

Visualize results of trained models

• :inbox_tray: Download trained models

• Unzip the archive and place the content of the resulting directory in GENERAL_EXP_OUTPUT_DIR

• Add lines in file ./src/text2pose/shortname_2_model_path.txt following this format:

  <model shortname><4 spaces><path to the model>
  

  You can copy lines from here.

• Launch a demo:

  streamlit run <type>/demo_<type>.py -- --model_path </path/to/model.pth>
  

  where:

  • <type> depends on the task, and is given in the table below;
  • </path/to/model.pth> is the path to the model, which, if using one of the trained model, can be: <GENERAL_EXP_OUTPUT_DIR>/<model_name>/seed1/checkpoint_best.pth with <model_name> indicated in the table below.

  <type>	Task (with related dataset)	Example <model_name>
