This post mainly covers following works in brief:

  1. SMPL

  3. Octopus
  4. DeepHuman

SMPL (Skinned Multi-Person Linear Model)
#

Trained parameters of an SMPL default body are as follows:

  • T ==> Mesh Vertices
  • W ==> Blending Weights
  • S ==> Shape Displacement Vectors
  • P ==> Pose Displacement Vectors
  • J ==> Joint Transformation Matrix

Given two parameters, $\theta$ for pose of human body and $\beta$ for shape of a subject, default human body is transformed to subject’s geometric characteristics and a particular pose as encoded by $\theta$
