NeuMan: Neural Human Radiance Field from a Single Video

This repository is a reference implementation for NeuMan. NeuMan reconstructs both the background scene and an animatable human from a single video using neural radiance fields.

Environment

To create the environment using Conda:

conda env create -f environment.yml

Alternately, you can create the environment by executing:

conda create -n neuman_env python=3.7 -y;
conda activate neuman_env;
conda install pytorch==1.8.0 torchvision==0.9.0 cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch;
# For RTX 30 series GPU with CUDA version 11.x, please use:
# conda install pytorch==1.8.0 torchvision==0.9.0 torchaudio==0.8.0 cudatoolkit=11.1 -c pytorch -c conda-forge
conda install -c fvcore -c iopath -c conda-forge fvcore iopath;
conda install -c bottler nvidiacub;
conda install pytorch3d -c pytorch3d;
conda install -c conda-forge igl;
pip install opencv-python joblib open3d imageio tensorboardX chumpy lpips scikit-image ipython matplotlib;

Notice that pytorch3d requires a specific version of pytorch, in our case pytorch=1.8.0.

Activate the environment:

conda activate neuman_env

Demo

• Download SMPL weights:

  • Registration is required to download the UV map(Download UV map in OBJ format) from SMPL.
  • Download neutral SMPL weights(SMPLIFY_CODE_V2.ZIP) from SMPLify, extract basicModel_neutral_lbs_10_207_0_v1.0.0.pkl and rename it to SMPL_NEUTRAL.pkl.
  • Put the all the downloaded files into ./data/smplx folder with following structure:

   .
   └── data
       └── smplx
           ├── smpl
           │   └── SMPL_NEUTRAL.pkl
           └── smpl_uv.obj

• Download NeuMan dataset and pretrained models:

  • Data (download)
  • Pretrained models (download)

  Alternately, run the following script to set up data and pretrained models.

  bash setup_data_and_models.sh

• (Optional) Download AMASS dataset for reposing:

  • AMASS dataset is used for rendering novel poses, specifically render_reposing.py and render_gathering.py.
  • We used SFU mocap(SMPL+H G) subset, please download from AMASS.
  • Put the downloaded mocap data in to ./data/SFU folder.

   .
   └── data
       └── SFU
           ├── 0005
           ├── 0007
           │   ...
           └── 0018

• Render using pretrained model

  Render 360 views of a canonical human:

  python render_360.py --scene_dir ./data/bike --weights_path ./out/bike_human/checkpoint.pth.tar --mode canonical_360

  Render 360 views of a posed human:

  python render_360.py --scene_dir ./data/bike --weights_path ./out/bike_human/checkpoint.pth.tar --mode posed_360

  Render test views of a sequence, and evaluate the metrics:

  python render_test_views.py --scene_dir ./data/bike --weights_path ./out/bike_human/checkpoint.pth.tar

  Render novel poses with the background:

  python render_reposing.py --scene_dir ./data/bike --weights_path ./out/bike_human/checkpoint.pth.tar --motion_name=jumpandroll

  Render telegathering:

  python render_gathering.py --actors parkinglot seattle citron --scene_dir ./data/seattle --weights_path ./out/seattle_human/checkpoint.pth.tar

Training

• Download NeuMan dataset

• Train scene NeRF

python train.py --scene_dir ./data/bike/ --name=bike_background --train_mode=bkg

• Train human NeRF

python train.py --scene_dir ./data/bike  --name=bike_human --load_background=bike_background --train_mode=smpl_and_offset
