Paper

ENV

• System: Ubuntu 16.04
• Nvidia: TITAN Xp
• Torch version: 1.4.0+cu100, torchvision: 0.4.0

Install Env

We provide two ways to install the environment:

1. Conda-based:

conda create -n gpnerf python=3.7
conda activate gpnerf

# make sure that the pytorch cuda is consistent with the system cuda
# e.g., if your system cuda is 10.0, install torch 1.4 built from cuda 10.0
pip install torch==1.4.0+cu100 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Install spconv
git clone https://github.com/traveller59/spconv --recursive
cd spconv
git checkout abf0acf30f5526ea93e687e3f424f62d9cd8313a
export CUDA_HOME="/usr/local/cuda-10.0"
python setup.py bdist_wheel
cd dist
pip install spconv-1.2.1-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl

2. Docker-based:

docker pull caiyj/neuralbody:imi-server
# if there's any problem with spconv, try the following commands
cd ~/spconv
python setup.py bdist_wheel
cd dist
pip uninstall spconv-1.2.1-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl
pip install spconv-1.2.1-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl
pip install yacs

Set up datasets

1. Download the ZJU-Mocap dataset here.
2. Create a soft link:

   ROOT=/path/to/neuralbody
   cd $ROOT/data
   ln -s /path/to/zju_mocap zju_mocap
   

Train

Train on ZJU-Mocap dataset, eval on ZJU-Mocap dataset:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python tools/train.py -cfg configs/trainzju_valzju.yaml

Train on THuman dataset, eval on ZJU-Mocap dataset:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 tools/train.py --cfg configs/trainthu_valzju.yaml

Evaluation and Visualization

Train on ZJU-Mocap dataset, eval on ZJU-Mocap dataset:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 tools/inference.py --cfg configs/trainzju_valzju.yaml render.resume_path checkpoints/cam3zju_zjuval_70.pth test.test_seq 'demo_zjutrain_zjuval' dataset.test.seq_list "'CoreView_387', 'CoreView_393', 'CoreView_392'," \ test.is_vis True dataset.test.sampler 'FrameSampler' dataset.test.shuffle False render.file 'demo_render'

Train on THuman dataset, eval on ZJU-Mocap dataset:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 tools/inference.py --cfg configs/trainthu_valzju.yaml render.resume_path checkpoints/cam3thu_zjuval_dim16_100.pth test.test_seq 'demo_thutrain_zjuval' dataset.test.seq_list "'CoreView_387', 'CoreView_393', 'CoreView_392'," \ test.is_vis True dataset.test.sampler 'FrameSampler' dataset.test.shuffle False render.file 'demo_render' head.sigma.code_dim 16

Visualization setting: test.is_vis = True, visualization dir path = [result_dir]/[test.test_seq].

We have provided two pretrained weights files and the corresponding training logs and visualization results here for reference.

Notice

• If loading the provided checkpoint, please make sure the version of PyTorch and spconv are consistent with the provided code.
• You can change the dataset root by modifying dataset.train.data_root and dataset.test.data_root in the config file.
• Please set dataset.test.sampler to '' if you want to test every frame of the test set.
• To ensure the testing performance, the environment especially PyTorch version and spconv version should be consistent between the training and testing.
