Abstract: Unconditional human image generation is an important task in vision and graphics, which enables various applications in the creative industry. Existing studies in this field mainly focus on "network engineering" such as designing new components and objective functions. This work takes a data-centric perspective and investigates multiple critical aspects in "data engineering", which we believe would complement the current practice. To facilitate a comprehensive study, we collect and annotate a large-scale human image dataset with over 230K samples capturing diverse poses and textures. Equipped with this large dataset, we rigorously investigate three essential factors in data engineering for StyleGAN-based human generation, namely data size, data distribution, and data alignment. Extensive experiments reveal several valuable observations w.r.t. these aspects: 1) Large-scale data, more than 40K images, are needed to train a high-fidelity unconditional human generation model with vanilla StyleGAN. 2) A balanced training set helps improve the generation quality with rare face poses compared to the long-tailed counterpart, whereas simply balancing the clothing texture distribution does not effectively bring an improvement. 3) Human GAN models with body centers for alignment outperform models trained using face centers or pelvis points as alignment anchors. In addition, a model zoo and human editing applications are demonstrated to facilitate future research in the community. <br> Keyword: Human Image Generation, Data-Centric, StyleGAN

Usage

System requirements

Installation

To work with this project on your own machine, you need to install the environmnet as follows:

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate stylehuman
# [Optional: tensorflow 1.x is required for StyleGAN1. ]
pip install nvidia-pyindex
pip install nvidia-tensorflow[horovod]
pip install nvidia-tensorboard==1.15

Extra notes:

  1. In case having some conflicts when calling CUDA version, please try to empty the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. For example:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=; python generate.py --outdir=out/stylegan_human_v2_1024 --trunc=1 --seeds=1,3,5,7 
--network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --version 2
  1. We found the following troubleshooting links might be helpful: 1., 2.

Train

The training scripts are based on the original stylegan1, stylegan2-ada, and stylegan3 with minor changes. Here we only provide the scripts with modifications for SG2 and SG3. You can replace the old files with the provided scripts to train. (assume SHHQ-1.0 is placed under data/)

Train Stylegan2-ada-pytorch with SHHQ-1.0

python train.py --outdir=training_results/sg2/ --data=data/SHHQ-1.0/ \
    --gpus=8 --aug=noaug --mirror=1 --snap=250 --cfg=shhq --square=False

Train Stylegan3 with SHHQ-1.0

python train.py --outdir=training_results/sg3/ --cfg=stylegan3-r --gpus=8 --batch=32 --gamma=12.4 \
    --mirror=1 --aug=noaug --data=data/SHHQ-1.0/ --square=False --snap=250

Pretrained models

Please put the downloaded pretrained models from above link under the folder 'pretrained_models'.

Generate full-body human images using our pretrained model

# Generate human full-body images without truncation
python generate.py --outdir=outputs/generate/stylegan_human_v2_1024 --trunc=1 --seeds=1,3,5,7 --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --version 2

# Generate human full-body images with truncation 
python generate.py --outdir=outputs/generate/stylegan_human_v2_1024 --trunc=0.8 --seeds=0-10 --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --version 2

# Generate human full-body images using stylegan V1
python generate.py --outdir=outputs/generate/stylegan_human_v1_1024 --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v1_1024.pkl --version 1 --seeds=1,3,5

# Generate human full-body images using stylegan V3
python generate.py --outdir=outputs/generate/stylegan_human_v3_512 --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v3_512.pkl --version 3 --seeds=1,3,5

Note: The following demos are generated based on models related to StyleGAN V2 (stylegan_human_v2_512.pkl and stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl). If you want to see results for V1 or V3, you need to change the loading method of the corresponding models.

Interpolation

python interpolation.py --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl  --seeds=85,100 --outdir=outputs/inter_gifs

Style-mixing image using stylegan2

python style_mixing.py --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --rows=85,100,75,458,1500 \\
    --cols=55,821,1789,293 --styles=0-3 --outdir=outputs/stylemixing

Style-mixing video using stylegan2

python stylemixing_video.py --network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --row-seed=3859 \\
    --col-seeds=3098,31759,3791 --col-styles=8-12 --trunc=0.8 --outdir=outputs/stylemixing_video

Aligned raw images

For alignment, we use openpose-pytorch for body-keypoints detection and PaddlePaddle for human segmentation. Before running the alignment script, few models need to be installed:

  1. download body_pose_model.pth and place it into openpose/model/.
  2. download and extract deeplabv3p_resnet50_os8_humanseg_512x512_100k_with_softmax into PP_HumanSeg/export_model/deeplabv3p_resnet50_os8_humanseg_512x512_100k_with_softmax.
  3. download and extract deeplabv3p_resnet50_os8_humanseg_512x512_100k into PP_HumanSeg/pretrained_model/deeplabv3p_resnet50_os8_humanseg_512x512_100k.
  4. install paddlepaddel: pip install paddleseg

Then you can start alignment:

python alignment.py --image-folder img/test/ --output-folder aligned_image/

Invert real image with PTI

Before inversion, please download our PTI weights: e4e_w+.pt into /pti/.

Few parameters you can change:

python run_pti.py

Note: we used the test image under 'aligned_image/' (the output of alignment.py), the inverted latent code and fine-tuned generator will be saved in 'outputs/pti/'

Editing with InterfaceGAN, StyleSpace, and Sefa

python edit.py --network pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --attr_name upper_length \\
    --seeds 61531,61570,61571,61610 --outdir outputs/edit_results

Editing using inverted latent code

python edit.py ---network outputs/pti/checkpoints/model_test.pkl --attr_name upper_length \\
    --outdir outputs/edit_results --real True --real_w_path outputs/pti/embeddings/test/PTI/test/0.pt --real_img_path aligned_image/test.png

Note:

  1. ''upper_length'' and ''bottom_length'' of ''attr_name'' are available for demo.
  2. Layers to control and editing strength are set in edit/edit_config.py.

Demo for InsetGAN

We implement a quick demo using the key idea from InsetGAN: combining the face generated by FFHQ with the human-body generated by our pretrained model, optimizing both face and body latent codes to get a coherent full-body image. Before running the script, you need to download the FFHQ face model, or you can use your own face model, as well as pretrained face landmark and pretrained CNN face detection model for dlib

python insetgan.py --body_network=pretrained_models/stylegan_human_v2_1024.pkl --face_network=pretrained_models/ffhq.pkl \\
    --body_seed=82 --face_seed=43  --trunc=0.6 --outdir=outputs/insetgan/ --video 1
