We introduce Groma, a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) with grounded and fine-grained visual perception ability. Beyond holistic image understanding, Groma is adept at region-level tasks such as region captioning and visual grounding. Such capabilities are built upon a localized visual tokenization mechanism, where an image input is decomposed into regions of interest and subsequently encoded into region tokens. By integrating region tokens into user instructions and model responses, we seamlessly enable Groma to understand user-specified region inputs and ground its textual output to images. Besides, to enhance the grounded chat ability of Groma, we curate a visually grounded instruction dataset by leveraging the powerful GPT-4V and visual prompting techniques.

We introduce Groma, a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) with grounded and fine-grained visual perception ability. Beyond holistic image understanding, Groma is adept at region-level tasks such as region captioning and visual grounding. Such capabilities are built upon a localized visual tokenization mechanism, where an image input is decomposed into regions of interest and subsequently encoded into region tokens. By integrating region tokens into user instructions and model responses, we seamlessly enable Groma to understand user-specified region inputs and ground its textual output to images. Besides, to enhance the grounded chat ability of Groma, we curate a visually grounded instruction dataset by leveraging the powerful GPT-4V and visual prompting techniques. Compared with MLLMs that rely on the language model or external module for localization, Groma consistently demonstrates superior performances in standard referring and grounding benchmarks, highlighting the advantages of embedding localization into image tokenization.

Besides, the nature of sequence outputs in LLMs is not well-suited for dense prediction tasks such as segmentation. These concerns elicit another stream of research, which incorporates an external localization module (e.g., SAM [22]) to decode bounding boxes or masks [26,40,43,62] (Fig. 2(b)).

We introduce Groma, a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) with grounded and fine-grained visual perception ability. Beyond holistic image understanding, Groma is adept at region-level tasks such as region captioning and visual grounding. Such capabilities are built upon a localized visual tokenization mechanism, where an image input is decomposed into regions of interest and subsequently encoded into region tokens. By integrating region tokens into user instructions and model responses, we seamlessly enable Groma to understand user-specified region inputs and ground its textual output to images. Besides, to enhance the grounded chat ability of Groma, we curate a visually grounded instruction dataset by leveraging the powerful GPT-4V and visual prompting techniques. Compared with MLLMs that rely on the language model or external module for localization, Groma consistently demonstrates superior performances in standard referring and grounding benchmarks, highlighting the advantages of embedding localization into image tokenization.

Owing to the foundational capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) [12,36, 37,45,46], MLLMs excel in vision-language tasks that require advanced understanding and reasoning, such as image captioning and visual question answering. However, despite these achievements, current MLLMs typically fall short of localization capabilities, thus cannot ground understanding to the visual context. Such limitations constrains the model from fulfilling its potential in real-world applications like robotics, autonomous driving, and augmented reality. + +In light of the gap, one stream of research attempts to augment the LLM to directly output quantized object coordinates for localization [3,7,8,39,50,58] (Fig. 2(a)). While this method is simple in design, the substantial computational demands of LLMs make it challenging to process high-resolution image inputs, which are essential for accurate localization. Besides, the nature of sequence outputs in LLMs is not well-suited for dense prediction tasks such as segmentation. These concerns elicit another stream of research, which incorporates an external localization module (e.g., SAM [22]) to decode bounding boxes or masks [26,40,43,62] (Fig. 2(b)). This approach circumvents aforementioned issues, but introduces additional model complexity. + +The above motivates us to explore a new paradigm for grounded MLLMs. Drawing inspiration from open-vocabulary object detection [66], we decompose the grounding task into two sub-problems: discovering the object (localization) and relating the object to texts (recognition). We notice that localization alone requires little semantic understanding but demands perceptual skills, which is typically out of the scope of an LLM's expertise. This inspires us to decouple localization and recognition within MLLMs. But instead of using external modules, we propose exploiting the spatial understanding capability in the visual tokenizer of MLLMs for localization (Fig. 2(c)). This perceive-then-understand design also resembles human vision process. + +Building upon this concept, we introduce Groma1 (Grounded Multimodal Assistant), an MLLM with localized and fine-grained visual perception abilities. Specifically, Groma incorporates region tokenization alongside standard image tokenization to identify and encode potential regions of interest (ROIs) into region tokens. During this process, location information is extracted from the image and associated with region tokens, with each region token anchored to the underlying ROI. This allows Groma to ground its textual output by simply referring to region tokens, alleviating the need for the LLM to meticulously regress object coordinates. Moreover, the tokenizer of Groma can also encode user-specified region inputs (i.e., bounding boxes) into region tokens, which are directly inserted into user instructions to initiate referential dialogue. + +By settling localization to the image tokenization process, Groma circumvents the heavy computation of LLMs when handling high-resolution input. Specifically, Groma uses high-resolution images for tokenizer input but downsamples image tokens for LLM input, which saves computation without sacrificing localization accuracy. Besides, unlike methods adopting separate designs for modeling grounding outputs and referring inputs [43,62], Groma seamlessly unifies the two capabilities with the use of region tokens. + +From the data perspective, to improve the localized understanding of Groma, we adopt an extensive collection of datasets with region-level annotations for training, which encompasses a range of region semantics from objects and relationships to detailed region descriptions. In addition, to remedy the lack of long-form grounded data, we construct a visually grounded chat dataset called Groma Instruct for instruction finetuning. Groma Instruct is the first grounded chat dataset constructed with both visual and textual prompts, leveraging the powerful GPT-4V for data generation. + +Our comprehensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of the design of Groma, with results showing that it outperforms all comparable MLLMs on established referring and grounding benchmarks. We also showcase that Groma maintains strong image-level understanding and reasoning abilities on the conversational VQA benchmark. Moreover, to assess the ability to localize multiple, diverse, and variably-sized objects, we adapt the LVIS [15] detection benchmark for object grounding evaluation. On this challenging benchmark, Groma surpasses alternative methods by a significant margin (over $10\%$ AR), highlighting its robust and precise localization capabilities. + +![](images/490a6ee3777a53b6d0fdf04ebce8c57373c655b0a9685460f4a9f93b3e62d6c9.jpg) +(a) + +![](images/d530591d360095a11deba732427672d0779260efda4534f731ffb4f50eca85ed.jpg) +(b) +Fig. 2: Different paradigms of grounded MLLMs. We mark the modules for localization with $\dagger$ .

Such progress inspires the community to extend the foundational capabilities of LLMs to the visual + +domain, giving birth to multimodal large language models (MLLMs). The pioneering works [2, 13, 27, 28, 57, 62, 67] of MLLMs typically follow a tripartite architecture, comprising a visual encoder, a vision-language connector, and a large language model. Specifically, BLIP-2 [28] and Flamingo [2] first propose the Q-Former/Resampler to bridge vision and language. LLaVA [62] and MiniGPT4 [67] streamline this vision-language connector to a linear layer, and introduce visual instruction tuning to enhance the instruction-following ability of MLLMs. Following works [10, 50] further showcase the immense potential of MLLMs by scaling up the visual components to the magnitude as LLMs. While these works have exhibited impressive visual understanding capabilities, they are predominantly constrained to image-level tasks, such as image captioning and image visual question answering. This necessitates the research into region-level MLLMs, which unlock more nuanced and granular visual-language interactions. + +Region-level MLLMs. In pursuit of fine-grained and grounded image understanding, recent studies further integrate region-level data into the training of MLLMs [7, 8, 39, 51, 52, 60, 65]. In particular, to model box inputs and outputs, Kosmos-2 [39] and Shikra [8] directly quantize bounding boxes into discrete location tokens or numeric representation of positions. GPT4RoI [64] and RegionGPT [14] use a simple pooling operation to extract the features within boxes or masks as the region representations. While Ferret [58] proposes a spatial-aware visual sampler to deal with free-form region inputs. Besides, to achieve more accurate localization, some works [26, 43, 63] resort to off-the-shelf models for pixel-level grounding. For instance, LISA [26] takes the segmentation token generated by the MLLM as the prompts for SAM [22] to produce the segmentation masks. GLaMM [43] and LLaVA-Ground [62] further advance the concept and enable grounded conversation generation. Our work shares the same focus with the aforementioned methods on region-level understanding and grounding. Yet, we distinguish ourselves from existing studies by proposing a novel perspective in enhancing the localization ability of MLLMs. + +# 3 Method + +In this section, we present Groma, a grounded multimodal large language model capable of understanding user-defined region inputs and generating visually grounded outputs. We first illustrate the model architecture of Groma in Sec. 3.1. Then we introduce how to format region input and output in Sec. 3.2. Finally, we detail the learning pipelines Sec. 3.3. + +# 3.1 Model Architecture + +As illustrated in Fig. 3, Groma primarily consists of (1) an image encoder for scene-level image tokenization, (2) a region proposer for discovering regions of interest, (3) a region encoder for region-level image tokenization, and (4) a large language model for modeling multimodal input and output. We detail each component in the following paragraphs. + +![](images/bc368c885623cf122996879d6b68f5fec2b0803d110c6aa67d19bbfffee55fba.jpg) +Fig. 3: Overview of Groma. Groma encodes the image input into both global image tokens and local region tokens. For region tokenization, a general-purpose region proposer is introduced to discover regions of interest, followed by a light-weight region encoder. By integrating region tokens into user instructions and model responses, Groma unlocks the referring and grounding abilities of MLLMs. + +Image Encoder. Groma employs a pretrained DINOv2 [38] model as the image encoder with the input image resolution set to $448 \times 448$ . Compared with the commonly adopted CLIP [42] visual encoder, DINOv2 is preferred in this work for its compatibility with high-resolution inputs and fine-grained features for localization. However, the use of higher-resolution images leads to extended sequences of visual input for the language model, e.g., 1024 tokens in this case. To save computations, we further concatenate every four neighbor patch tokens into a single token following MiniGPT-v2 [7]. But slightly different from [7], we merge tokens adjacent in 2D instead of 1D, which yields better performance. + +Region Proposer. To obtain localized understanding of the image, Groma innovatively incorporates a region proposer into the image tokenization process. Specifically, the region proposer is implemented as a class-agnostic detector head using the Deformable DETR (DDETR) transformer [68]. The original classification head of DDETR is replaced by a binary classifier to score region proposals based on their localization quality. Inspired by ViTDet [29], we extract feature maps from the last 4 layers of the image encoder, and rescale these feature maps to construct a hierarchical feature pyramid as the input to the region proposer. For each image, the region proposer generates 300 region proposals, which are then filtered by NMS and objectness scores before fed into the region encoder. + +Region Encoder. The region encoder translates region proposals (i.e., bounding boxes), coming from both user input and the region proposer, into region tokens. Akin to the previous step, we select feature maps from the last three layers of the image encoder to create a hierarchical feature pyramid. A multiscale ROAlign [16] module as implemented in [43, 64] is utilized to crop and fuse these hierarchical features into unified region tokens. Compared with alternative ways to represent regional inputs, such as numerical representation of positions [8] and discrete location tokens [7, 39], the region token representation offers distinct benefits as it is semantically aligned with the underlying region, which renders it more intuitive for the language model to comprehend. + +LLM. We adopt pretrained Vicuna [12] as the language model of Groma. In particular, we instantiate Groma with the 7B version of Vicuna. Besides, we follow LLaVA v1.5 [32] to use an MLP layer to project the image tokens and region tokens into the feature space of the LLM. + +# 3.2 Input and Output Formatting + +Beyond textual only instructions and responses, Groma offers the flexibility to accept user-specified regions as input (referring) and generate visually grounded answers (grounding). Specifically, although different in task formulations, both referring and grounding are unified into one format with the use of region tokens. + +Grounding Output. Remember in the tokenization process, each region token is inherently anchored to a concrete location in the image, corresponding to its region proposal. This connection allows the language model to ground its text output to particular regions in the image by simply referring to the associated region tokens. However, as region tokens are continuous embeddings, they cannot be directly integrated into the codebook of the language model and referenced in the text output. To bridge the gap, we further introduce a set of proxy tokens “ $\langle \mathbf{r}_1\rangle$ , $\langle \mathbf{r}_2\rangle$ , ..., $\langle \mathbf{r}_n\rangle$ ” to register region tokens. As illustrated below, Groma can refer to any region in the output by addressing the proxy token. + +User: Here is an image with region crops from it. Image: . Regions: , , ..., .

In addition, we use a special token [grounding] to inform the model to generate grounded responses. + +Referring Input. For a region pointed out by the user, we treat it the same as region proposals from the region proposer, i.e., encoding it into a region token and assigning a proxy token to it. This allows us to incorporate user-specified regions into our instructions by inserting corresponding region tokens. A simple example of referential dialogue in Groma is given below, where $\langle r_{10} \rangle$ comes from user-specified region input. + +User: Here is an image with region crops from it. Image: .

Tab. 1 enumerates the datasets used at different training stages. Additionally, we provide the instruction templates used to convert task-specified datasets to instruction following format in Appendix. + +Table 1: Datasets used at three training stages.

+ +Detection Pretraining. This training stage only involves the image encoder and the region proposer, which collectively constitute a DDETR-like detector. The image encoder is kept frozen during training. To endow the region proposer with localization capability, an extensive collection of detection datasets, including COCO [30], Objects365 [44], OpenImages [25], and V3Det [47], is utilized for large-scale pretraining. Notably, category information is omitted from the training process, with a primary focus on box supervision. + +Considering traditional detection data are typically limited to object-level annotations, we complement the training with a two million subset of SA1B [23] data filtered by GLEE [19]. Original mask annotations of SA1B are transformed into bounding boxes for consistency. The inclusion of this enriched dataset encourages the region proposer to produce region proposals encompassing not only object instances but also their constituent parts and various background stuff. + +Alignment Pretraining. To align vision and language feature space of Groma, we pretrain the model on a wide range of vision-language tasks. Specifically, for image-level alignment, we leverage ShareGPT-4V-PT [9] for detailed image captioning. For region-level alignment, we engage COCO [30], RefCOCO [21], RefCOCO+ [59], RefCOCOg [35], and Grit-20m [39] for referring expression comprehension (REC), Visual Genome [24] for region captioning, and Flickr30k Entities [41] for grounded caption generation. To maintain training efficiency, we focus finetuning efforts on the MLP projection layer and the region encoder, while other modules are kept frozen throughout the training. + +Instruction Finetuning. Based on alignment pretraining, we refine the training data to focus exclusively on high-quality datasets and proceed to unfreeze the language model for finetuning purposes. At this stage, LLaVA Instruct [33] and ShareGPT-4V [9] are incorporated to improve the conversational and instruction-following capabilities of Groma². Besides, we curate a high-quality grounded chat dataset, named Groma Instruct (see next section for more details), to facilitate synergy of chatting and grounding abilities of Groma. + +Discussions. A major difference between the training of Groma and current MLLMs is the integration of dedicated detection pretraining, which endows Groma with robust and precise localization ability. Thanks to the decoupled architecture of location and understanding within Groma, we circumvent the need to involve the LLM during detection pretraining. Such a strategic design allows Groma to benefit from pretraining on millions of bounding box annotations — a task that would be computationally prohibitive for classic MLLMs. + +# 4 GPT4V-assisted Grounded Conversation Generation + +Visual dialogue data have proven to be crucial in advancing the conversational capability of the MLLM as a visual chatbot. Previous methods mostly rely on coarse-grained image descriptions to derive free-form visual dialogues, which typically lack fine-grained region details and precise location information [33, 67]. For grounded MLLMs, such free-form dialogue data are shown to be insufficient to enable the model to generate long-form grounded responses [62] - as the format of grounded responses significantly deviates from that of normal responses, it could be challenging for the grounded MLLM to generalize its grounding capability to long-form conversations. + +To bridge the gap, we have meticulously curated a dataset containing 30k visually grounded conversations for instruction finetuning, named Groma Instruct. An illustrative example from Groma Instruct is showcased in Fig. 4. Specifically, we select images with dense region annotations from Visual Genome [24] (VG), and take the following steps to construct grounded conversations with the assistance of advanced GPT-4V model: + +- First, we remove highly overlapped regions (bounding boxes) from VG annotations, normally leaving 3-10 regions of interest for each image. Then we adapt the visual prompting techniques from SoM [56] to overlay a bright numeric marker at the center of each region. Using this marked image as input unleashes the grounding capabilities of GPT-4V - it can easily make references to specific image regions by addressing the corresponding numbers. +- Besides visual input, we supply GPT-4V with rich region descriptions, image descriptions, and image-based Q&A pairs, coming from COCO [30] and VG + +annotations3. While such textual context is optional for GPT-4V input, we empirically find it useful to reduce hallucinations in generated contents and resolve potential ambiguities in visual prompts4. + +- Inspired by prior studies on visual chat data construction [9, 33, 48, 67], we further provide GPT-4V with manually designed grounded chat as context examples. This provokes the in-context-learning ability of GPT-4V to generate grounded conversations in a uniform format. We also take a post-processing stage to filter out conversations not following the pre-defined format. + +# Region descriptions: + +[1] dog walking on beach +[2] surfboard under woman's arm +[3] woman walking in wetsuit +[4] sand on ocean shore +[5] ocean with rolling waves +[6] hazy mountains on horizon + +# Q&A pairs: + +What is the surfer holding? +Surf board. +$= = =$ +What is the dog doing? +Following its master. +··· + +![](images/c829acfb51442a9674d283be707b3586b0ad3d1cfb0ff0685636cb81974e46f4.jpg) +Fig. 4: A data example from Groma Instruct.

We further employ mixed query selection and look-forward-twice scheme as in [61] to accelerate convergence. We set NMS threshold to 0.6 and filter out region proposals with objectness scores lower than 0.15. Subsequently, we select the top 100 region proposals if there are more than 100 proposals left after filtering. This results in no more than 356 visual tokens in total.

+ +We evaluate the localization capability of Groma on visual grounding tasks. Tab. 2 showcases our performance on three classic referring expression comprehension benchmarks: RefCOCO [21], RefCOCO+ [59], and RefCOCOg [35].

These findings underscore the strong capability of Groma in visual grounding. + +However, we notice that traditional REC benchmarks only cover a narrow range of common objects in their referring expressions, which is insufficient to thoroughly evaluate the MLLM's localization capability. Therefore, we further introduce LVIS-Ground, an object grounding benchmark converted from the LVIS [15] detection data. LVIS-Ground contains 4299 images covering 1203 categories of objects, with on average 3.7 target objects per image. Complementary to REC benchmarks, LVIS-Ground focuses on testing the model's ability to locate multiple, diverse, and variably-sized objects.

We conjecture this is mainly because the training data (e.g., RefCOCO/g/+, Flickr30k) lack annotations for small objects. We also notice that current models typically predict only one box per image, even though more than one targets are presented. This is an expected behavior as the they heavily rely on REC data for grounding training, which only has one target object per query.

+ +# 5.3 Referring Benchmark Results + +We evaluate Groma on the region captioning task to assess its fine-grained region understanding capability. To prompt the model to generate region-level descriptions, we use queries like "Please describe in details." Tab. 4 presents our results on two established region captioning benchmarks, RefCOCOg and Visual Genome. Without task-specific finetuning, Groma shows comparable or improved performance over GLaMM $^5$ [43], which has separate designs for input referring and output grounding. This exemplifies the superiority of unified refer-and-ground formulation in Groma. + +Table 4: Results on region captioning benchmarks.

+ +# 5.4 Conversational VQA Benchmark Results + +In addition to region-level tasks, we further evaluate Groma on the conversational style VQA benchmark, LLaVA Bench (COCO) [33], which contains three types of questions, namely conversation, detailed description, and complex reasoning. As shown in Tab. 5, Groma surpasses the strong baseline method LLaVA [33] and achieves competitive performance among grounded MLLMs, especially in detailed image description. This demonstrates that Groma maintains decent image understanding and visual chatting abilities. For the underperformance in conversation and complex reasoning questions, we speculate this could be resulted from the DINOv2 features, as shown in recent studies [18, 31]. But we believe such gap can be closed by scaling up vision-language alignment pretraining. + +Table 5: Results on LLaVA-Bench (COCO). + +

+ +# 5.5 Qualitative Results + +Fig. 5 presents a comparison between Groma and other grounded MLLMs on the grounded image captioning task. We choose an exemplar image that is inherently challenging with multiple and occluded instances to ground. Groma manifests exceptional grounding performance in this case with the highest recall and minimum hallucinations. In addition, we provide several visualization examples in Fig. 6 for a complementary understanding of Groma's abilities on grounded chat and referential dialogue. We show that Groma is capable of generating long-form, grounded and logically rich answers, which can be mainly attributed to the introduction of Groma Instruct data in finetuning. + +Kosmos2 +![](images/f397344c26bcc5667bd757a7fc7c76fce74886b361365da2760afbafc29ee116.jpg) +An image of a herd of giraffes and zebras. + +MiniGPT v2 +![](images/8de6379c965a5a11686de84789ccf69eb88adf934534c2981cd8aa2744c781fd.jpg) +A herd of zebras and giraffes are standing in a field with trees in the background. + +Groma +![](images/eec3e20322456c782fc37fea2ac56595a33186bf40393cab3634c6fd728f5a34.jpg) +A group of giraffes and zebras are walking through a field. + +![](images/0b4651f713101d3388995774244a199a2166a7c0154420599503e7f81794967d.jpg) +Fig. 5: A qualitative comparison on the grounded image captioning task. + +![](images/7b7bf5f5fe0258ef74a5caf262f66e36a7f11f274025ea53fd3479bf6fcf5fbd.jpg) +[grounding] Where is this city?

The telescope serves the purpose of observing celestial objects, such as stars, planets, and other astronomical phenomena. It allows people to study and learn about the universe, as well as to enjoy the beauty of the night sky. The telescope's location on the hill provides an elevated vantage point, which can enhance its view of the sky and the celestial objects it is observing. + +# 5.6 Ablation + +CLIP vs. DINOv2. To quantitatively assess the differences in localization capabilities between CLIP and DINOv2, we compare the two backbones on the COCO detection benchmark in Tab. 6. For this comparison, we equip each backbone with a DDETR [68] detection head and finetune only the detection head on COCO dataset. It can be seen that under the same resolution, DINOv2 backbone significantly outperforms CLIP backbone by 6.5 AP. Furthermore, by scaling the resolution to $448 \times 448$ , DINOv2 backbone achieves a commendable performance of 43.6 AP. The results consolidate our choice of DINOv2 backbone in Groma. + +Frozen LLM. In Tab. 7, we reveal that Groma retains robust localized understanding even without finetuning the LLM, i.e., it demonstrates a referring ability on par with GPT4ROI [64] (148.0 vs. 145.2) and grounding ability comparable to Ferret [58] (84.02% vs. 83.91%). This finding suggests our design + +effectively decouples localization and understanding within Groma, such that it requires minimum 'new knowledge' from the LLM for localized understanding. + +Token Merge. To save computations, Groma by default concatenates every 4 image tokens into one as LLM inputs. Through control experiments in Tab. 8, we find that such downsampling has negligible impacts on the grounding performances (e.g., less than $0.1\%$ average accuracy drop on the REC benchmarks). The results evidence that the decoupled design is optimal in both efficiency and localization accuracy. + +Table 6: Object detection performances on COCO with different backbones and image resolutions. + +

+ +# 6 Limitations and Conclusions + +In this paper, we introduce a novel paradigm, Groma, to unleash the localized perception capabilities of MLLMs. We make the pioneering attempt to embed localization into image tokenization. Our paradigm is based on a perception-then-understand mindset that separates localization from high-level understanding and reasoning. Without introducing external modules, our approach overcomes the resolution bottleneck of using LLMs as location decoders and unifies referring and visual grounding tasks. Extensive experiments showcase the superior performance of our approach in localized perception, as evidenced by its success in referring and visual grounding tasks. + +However, the current implementation does not support free-form region inputs and pixel-level grounding. A promising direction to address such limitations is to re-implement the region encoder with a visual sampler as in [58, 69] and replace the box region proposer by a mask region proposer like Mask2Former [11]. We leave this for future studies. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work has been supported by Hong Kong Research Grant Council - Early Career Scheme (Grant No. 27209621), General Research Fund Scheme (Grant No. 17202422), Theme-based Research (Grant No. T45-701/22-R) and RGC Matching Fund Scheme (RMGS).

We introduce Groma, a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) with grounded and fine-grained visual perception ability. Beyond holistic image understanding, Groma is adept at region-level tasks such as region captioning and visual grounding. Such capabilities are built upon a localized visual tokenization mechanism, where an image input is decomposed into regions of interest and subsequently encoded into region tokens. By integrating region tokens into user instructions and model responses, we seamlessly enable Groma to understand user-specified region inputs and ground its textual output to images. Besides, to enhance the grounded chat ability of Groma, we curate a visually grounded instruction dataset by leveraging the powerful GPT-4V and visual prompting techniques. Compared with MLLMs that rely on the language model or external module for localization, Groma consistently demonstrates superior performances in standard referring and grounding benchmarks, highlighting the advantages of embedding localization into image tokenization.

While this method is simple in design, the substantial computational demands of LLMs make it challenging to process high-resolution image inputs, which are essential for accurate localization.

These concerns elicit another stream of research, which incorporates an external localization module (e.g., SAM [22]) to decode bounding boxes or masks [26,40,43,62] (Fig. 2(b)).

We conjecture this is mainly because the training data (e.g., RefCOCO/g/+, Flickr30k) lack annotations for small objects. We also notice that current models typically predict only one box per image, even though more than one targets are presented.

We propose GroundUp, the first sketch-based ideation tool for 3D city massing of urban areas. We focus on early-stage urban design, where sketching is a common tool and the design starts from balancing building volumes (masses) and open spaces. With Human-Centered AI in mind, we aim to help architects quickly revise their ideas by easily switching between 2D sketches and 3D models, allowing for smoother iteration and sharing of ideas. Inspired by feedback from architects and existing workflows, our system takes as a first input a user sketch of multiple buildings in a top-down view. The user then draws a perspective sketch of the envisioned site. Our method is designed to exploit the complementarity of information in the two sketches and allows users to quickly preview and adjust the inferred 3D shapes. Our model has two main components. First, we propose a novel sketch-to-depth prediction network for perspective sketches that exploits top-down sketch shapes. Second, we use depth cues derived from the perspective sketch as a condition to our diffusion model, which ultimately completes the geometry in a top-down view. Thus, our final 3D geometry is represented as a heightfield, allowing users to construct the city \"from the ground up\".

The backbone of this network is a UNet++ architecture, identical to the one we introduced in Sec. 3.1. To reduce ambiguity in a perspective view, we leverage top-down view information. However, applying the multi-view stereo as in [66,78] is not feasible, as our views have little visual overlap so it is infeasible to perform meaningful feature matching between such views. Instead, we exploit the fact that the top-down building occupancy mask, $M_t$ , provides information on whether a location in 3D space is free. We construct a 3D occupancy volume, which is aligned with the perspective view frustum. We construct it by slicing the 3D view frustum of the perspective camera with $n$ depth planes at equidistant intervals between the near $d_{\\mathrm{near}}$ and far planes $d_{\\mathrm{far}}$ . We populate the occupancy volume by setting all voxels that fall above non-occupied regions to $-\\nu$ and all voxels above occupied regions to $\\nu$ . We discuss the choice of $\\nu$ in detail in the supplemental material. Intuitively, we pick $\\nu$ to be sufficiently large, but within the range of our encoder features. We feed 3D occupancy features as input to the UNet++ encoder. Namely, the 3D occupancy features are of shape $D \\times H \\times W$ , where $D$ is the number of depth planes. When feeding these features into the 2D encoder in the UNet++, we consider depth planes as image feature channels $C$ . Then, similarly to [66], we pass the input sketch through a ResNet-50 encoder to obtain multi-level features. Starting from the first layer of the UNet++, at every second layer, we concatenate output features with corresponding encoded sketch features.

We propose GroundUp, the first sketch-based ideation tool for 3D city massing of urban areas. We focus on early-stage urban design, where sketching is a common tool and the design starts from balancing building volumes (masses) and open spaces. With Human-Centered AI in mind, we aim to help architects quickly revise their ideas by easily switching between 2D sketches and 3D models, allowing for smoother iteration and sharing of ideas. Inspired by feedback from architects and existing workflows, our system takes as a first input a user sketch of multiple buildings in a top-down view. The user then draws a perspective sketch of the envisioned site. Our method is designed to exploit the complementarity of information in the two sketches and allows users to quickly preview and adjust the inferred 3D shapes. Our model has two main components. First, we propose a novel sketch-to-depth prediction network for perspective sketches that exploits top-down sketch shapes. Second, we use depth cues derived from the perspective sketch as a condition to our diffusion model, which ultimately completes the geometry in a top-down view. Thus, our final 3D geometry is represented as a heightfield, allowing users to construct the city \"from the ground up\".

The loop of drawing and discussing buildings, and specifically sketching the buildings' masses, i.e. coarse shapes, is the crucial first stage of urban planning [59]. \"Architectural design begins with a massing study\" [40], where the term \"massing\" is used for this stage because it locks in the long-term balance between constructed mass versus open space. In pilot interviews, architects said that existing 3D software for urban modeling is too cumbersome for ideation and does not support beginners." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.72, + 0.788, + 0.841 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Presently, the ease of sketching is hard to beat. 3D model precision is not the top priority in massing. Rather, urban design aims to satisfy the constraints and desires of whole teams of stakeholders.

The backbone of this network is a UNet++ architecture, identical to the one we introduced in Sec. 3.1. To reduce ambiguity in a perspective view, we leverage top-down view information. However, applying the multi-view stereo as in [66,78] is not feasible, as our views have little visual overlap so it is infeasible to perform meaningful feature matching between such views. Instead, we exploit the fact that the top-down building occupancy mask, \\( M_t \\), provides information on whether a location in 3D space is free. We construct a 3D occupancy volume, which is aligned with the perspective view frustum. We construct it by slicing the 3D view frustum of the perspective camera with \\( n \\) depth planes at equidistant intervals between the near \\( d_{\\mathrm{near}} \\) and far planes \\( d_{\\mathrm{far}} \\). We populate the occupancy volume by setting all voxels that fall above non-occupied regions to \\( -\\nu \\) and all voxels above occupied regions to \\( \\nu \\). We discuss the choice of \\( \\nu \\) in detail in the supplemental material. Intuitively, we pick \\( \\nu \\) to be sufficiently large, but within the range of our encoder features. We feed 3D occupancy features as input to the UNet++ encoder. Namely, the 3D occupancy features are of shape \\( D \\times H \\times W \\), where \\( D \\) is the number of depth planes. When feeding these features into the 2D encoder in the UNet++, we consider depth planes as image feature channels \\( C \\). Then, similarly to [66], we pass the input sketch through a ResNet-50 encoder to obtain multi-level features. Starting from the first layer of the UNet++, at every second layer, we concatenate output features with corresponding encoded sketch features.

GroundUp addresses the especially challenging (but not unique) aspects of our problem: complexity and diversity of scene geometries, sparsity of sketch inputs, and incomplete depth cues in user-provided views. While we only show the results for a single perspective sketch, our system is trivially extended to a multi-view setting: by projecting point clouds inferred from extra perspective sketches into the top-down views passed to our diffusion model. We provide numerical experiments in the supplemental. With this work, we have taken a step toward quick building massing.

We propose GroundUp, the first sketch-based ideation tool for 3D city massing of urban areas. We focus on early-stage urban design, where sketching is a common tool and the design starts from balancing building volumes (masses) and open spaces. With Human-Centered AI in mind, we aim to help architects quickly revise their ideas by easily switching between 2D sketches and 3D models, allowing for smoother iteration and sharing of ideas. Inspired by feedback from architects and existing workflows, our system takes as a first input a user sketch of multiple buildings in a top-down view. The user then draws a perspective sketch of the envisioned site. Our method is designed to exploit the complementarity of information in the two sketches and allows users to quickly preview and adjust the inferred 3D shapes. Our model has two main components. First, we propose a novel sketch-to-depth prediction network for perspective sketches that exploits top-down sketch shapes. Second, we use depth cues derived from the perspective sketch as a condition to our diffusion model, which ultimately completes the geometry in a top-down view. Thus, our final 3D geometry is represented as a heightfield, allowing users to construct the city "from the ground up". The code, datasets, and interface are available at visual.cs.ucl.ac.uk/pubs/groundup. + +# 1 Introduction + +Urban design has a deep impact on people's lives, and it epitomizes the opportunities to bring Human-Centered AI for Computer Vision [91] into iterative design [34]. The loop of drawing and discussing buildings, and specifically sketching the buildings' masses, i.e. coarse shapes, is the crucial first stage of urban planning [59]. "Architectural design begins with a massing study" [40], where the term "massing" is used for this stage because it locks in the long-term balance between constructed mass versus open space. In pilot interviews, architects said that existing 3D software for urban modeling is too cumbersome for ideation and does not support beginners. + +Presently, the ease of sketching is hard to beat. 3D model precision is not the top priority in massing. Rather, urban design aims to satisfy the constraints and desires of whole teams of stakeholders. For example, an architect will play with many massing alternatives, often changing their mind mid-sketch. Currently, they iterate further in 2D with fellow architects on a shortlist of favorites, before re-doing just one or a few designs in 3D software (e.g. Rhino or Sketchup), to test out the idea. Our work aims to facilitate the design process by providing the means to quickly preview designs in 3D. + +![](images/06e26bb0b5ac06c02ab2c93fdb49485debae746390b1617beaae12a7e48a3fbc.jpg) +Fig. 1: An illustrative example of our method. (0) Users of our web-based GroundUp system can optionally load registered maps, satellite images, or perspective photographs as underlay layers. These give context for the "massing" process. A blank underlay is used in this example. (1) (bottom) The user sketches the initial footprints of multiple buildings in a top-down view. These strokes are projected into the perspective-view canvas (top). (2) The user sketches a perspective view of the site, and then (3) they trigger our trained model to infer the 3D shape of the sketched buildings. The user can then refine their ideas, iterating between 2D sketching and 3D visuals. + +![](images/f2bc4ee41210958ab7f831e873b70b7bd4d548ebcebad80814d7d5999ad69b9c.jpg) + +![](images/a52f85c2823661a1cf13d58a3b597c7da57e7bd16a3dfcbef21cce2337b6cb14.jpg) + +![](images/16ae5babb1761c14cfe387efe95bc5b4d08149b56f478e0291c21149daa06219.jpg) + +We propose GroundUp, a sketch-based 3D modeling tool for city massing. As shown in Fig. 1 and the video, it works by getting the user to draw and refine their ideas in two views: a top-down "plan" sketch and a perspective sketch. In both views, users can optionally sketch on top of backprojected lines and selected underlay photos. This helps to iterate or when remodeling of an existing site is required. Tightly coupled with this interface, our algorithm quickly infers 3D massing-quality geometry. Such 3D geometry, once approved, can be refined outside of GroundUp and used in the downstream stages of architectural design. + +The model intertwined with this interface faces multiple challenges. Compared to photos, sketch lines only provide a sparse signal about the scene. Between a top-down and perspective sketch, it is hard to expect texture regions to match in appearance, making off-the-shelf approaches targeting 3D reconstruction from multi-view images [18, 47, 66] inapplicable to our problem. Additionally, urban areas are inherently complex scenes, so perspective views that convey building heights and roof shapes also suffer from extreme self-occlusions. With many unobserved or partially-observed regions, we turn to diffusion as a generative formulation that could help our method to reconstruct plausible building shapes (Fig. 1(3)). + +Critically, the model updates must be responsive for the system to be usable, imposing trade-offs between interactivity and the geometric quality from our adapted latent diffusion model. + +Our proposed solution to these challenges offers the following contributions: + +- GroundUp is the first system for quick 2D sketch-based iteration on 3D massing design of city blocks. +- Our novel sketch-to-depth prediction network for perspective sketches exploits the top-down view's cues, and necessitated a bespoke training data process for this important domain. + +- We carefully design our top-down diffusion model to handle multiple conditions, integrating cues from both top-down and perspective sketches. + +# 2 Related Work + +Sketch-based 3D shape modeling systems greatly facilitate the creation of 3D content, and the first proposed systems came in the 1970s [12,33]. For an in-depth review of existing systems, we refer the reader to the comprehensive reviews [2, 4,6]. Here, we focus on works related to our overall goal of urban reconstruction and papers most related to our method. + +# 2.1 3D Building and City Reconstruction + +The exciting works related to the problems of urban reconstruction can be classified into two sets of problems [20]: first of layout generation [1,16,32] and second, of city modeling and rendering [37-39,46,77]. In our work, we aim to provide the user with direct control of the layout via sketching in a top-down view, rather than generating it automatically. Next, many algorithms [43,69,74] for architectural modeling take as input point clouds or Digital Surface Models (DSMs) that contain building height information, obtained with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) or photogrammetry [85]. In contrast, we pursue a different goal of how to obtain buildings' height information from sparse user-provided sketches. + +Multiple works utilize convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for monocular depth estimation from a satellite image [8,9,24,52,54] and building segmentation in a satellite image [7,44,51], or both [44,51]. In the first stage of our method, we also rely on a CNN to obtain a segmentation of a top-down sketch into individual buildings. We then propose to inject this information into a monocular depth estimation network that takes a perspective sketch as an input - the step that we show is paramount in the context of sparse sketch inputs. + +# 2.2 3D from Sketches + +3D representations: Sketch to 3D inference has been based on voxel-based representations [14], point clouds [73, 88], implicit functions [11, 29, 89], and 3D diffusion models [3]. Existing methods have a restricted ability to reconstruct details and to scale to larger scenes (e.g. multiple objects). We aim for the prompt reconstruction of multiple object shapes within an interactive interface. Our method controls for computational complexity and reduces memory footprint by regressing only 2.5D information, which is subsequently converted to a 3D mesh. We leverage depth and normal maps as intermediate representations. Using intermediate representations such as depth and normal maps is a common approach in sketch-based 3D reconstruction [23, 70, 76]. Just as we leverage a U-Net architecture [63], several works do so to predict multi-view depth and normal maps [42, 49, 90]. These methods then fuse the maps to a 3D shape. In contrast, aiming at complex scenes with multiple occlusions, we predict only + +one perspective view map and rely on a diffusion model to predict a plausible heightfiled, matching perspective and top-down views. Recent work targeting lifting sketches of machine-made shapes to 3D [60], similar to us, first predicts depth. Their full method focuses on the reconstruction of sharp edges. However, it takes about two minutes for single object inference on average. In comparison, our method runs end-to-end in under 2.7 seconds on multi-building scenes. + +Ambiguity of 3D reconstruction: For single-view and even sparse multi-view reconstruction, unobserved regions create uncertainty, on top of the shape ambiguity of the observed geometric surfaces. Learning of shape category priors is one of the most prominent approaches to dealing with sparse sketch inputs [3, 10, 29, 73, 83, 87, 88]. To further alleviate uncertainty, in single object modeling, symmetry can be leveraged [30, 79]. Other approaches regress parameters of predefined procedural programs [56, 58], or assume availability of additional information [41, 86]. For our task of modeling 3D building shape masses in city neighborhoods, we have more pronounced uncertainty from the multiple layers of occlusions in any perspective view. Additionally, 3D buildings and their groups also have irregular shapes covering diverse geometric configurations. Therefore, we leverage a generative diffusion model that allows us to obtain plausible-looking building masses from two sparse sketch constraints (Fig. 1). + +Urban modeling: Nishida et al. [56] explored data-driven inference of procedural grammars for individual building reconstruction. The reconstruction ability of such methods is limited to what is possible to represent with the considered grammar. Also, their approach cannot infer the shape from a complete drawing and assumes a specific drawing order, matching the grammar used. Liu et al. [48] extends procedural modeling to VR sketch inputs. Vitruvio [72] targets individual 3D building reconstruction from input sketches. The paper stresses the importance of perspective 2D sketch-based modeling in architectural applications for early idea development. Their method adopts an occupancy network [53] that is either fine-tuned or trained from scratch on synthetic sketches of individual buildings. However, their results show blobby reconstructions with some floating geometry pieces, typical in implicit 3D shape representations such as occupancy grids and signed distance fields [50,55,57]. Our heightfield representation allows us to obtain higher quality reconstructions of multiple buildings in one scene. + +# 2.3 Depth Estimation from RGB Images + +Sketches are harder for shape inference than RGB images, but we draw lessons nonetheless. For calibrated stereo pairs [13, 35, 82] or unstructured views with known poses [22, 28, 67], cost volumes reveal metric depth by matching photometric appearance between views. Unfortunately, the winning disparities are misleading with our textureless sketches. For depth from a single image, recent methods rely on a learned prior for depth estimation [19, 27, 84]. Follow-ups utilize 3D point networks [81] to combat scale ambiguity, dataset mixing [61] for more generalizable models, classification heads [21] for improved accuracy, or + +generative models [17,36,65] for sharper depth maps. Recent methods combine the two: cost volumes and strong image priors, to produce sharp metric depths from multiple views [18,47,66]. Rather than relying on photometric matching, we utilize a top-down sketch in an occupancy volume to resolve scale ambiguity. + +# 3 Method + +Our supervised model is tightly coupled with the user-facing 2D and 3D interface described in Sec. 1 and in Fig. 1. The model has several components, shown and summarised in Fig. 2. + +![](images/f5bb8f119cbe40e3953786dff11ef52a7365d6143dc70ca8e12f65c2a8e22670.jpg) +Fig. 2: Reconstruction pipeline overview. (I.) From input sketches, (II.) we estimate the segmentation of the top-down sketch into individual buildings (as detailed in Sec. 3.1). (III.) We then inject the volumetric information about the spaces not occupied by buildings (based on the segmentation result and using a known perspective camera from our interface) into the network that predicts depth and a foreground mask for the perspective sketch view (further detailed in Sec. 3.2). (IV.) From the predicted depth values, we obtain a partial 3D point cloud of the user-envisioned 3D city block. (V) By projecting a sparse 3D prediction into a top-down view, we obtain an initial guess for a top-down view heightfield. Finally, we rely on a diffusion model to obtain a plausible 3D reconstruction that aligns with the perspective and top-down sketches (as shown in V-VI. and detailed in Sec. 3.3). + +# 3.1 Building occupancy mask estimation for top-down sketches + +First, given a top-down sketch $S_{t}$ we aim to obtain building occupancy $M_{t}$ , and instance segmentation $M_{t}^{\star}$ maps (Fig. 2 II.): We use a subscript $t$ to denote maps of the top-down views. Our top-down occupancy prediction network follows a UNet++ architecture: an encoder-decoder network with dense and nested skip connections introduced in [92]. As an encoder, we use ResNet-50 [31], initialized with the weights of the model pre-trained on ImageNet [15]. We train our network with a weighted binary-cross entropy (BCE) loss + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}} = - \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \left[ \lambda_ {1} \left[ y _ {i} \log \left(p _ {i}\right) \right] + \lambda_ {0} \left[ \left(1 - y _ {i}\right) \log \left(1 - p _ {i}\right) \right] \right], \tag {1} +$$ + +where $y_{i}$ and $p_i$ are the ground-truth and predicted mask values for the $i^{th}$ pixel, respectively. $\lambda_0$ and $\lambda_{1}$ are the weights for ground and building class predictions, respectively. We empirically found that a bigger weight $\lambda_{1}$ for the building pixels improves mask prediction performance, accounting for class imbalance as buildings occupy a smaller area in the image. We provide further implementation details in the supplemental. + +We then segment into individual buildings, $M_t^\star$ , by applying Connected-Component Labeling [64] (Fig. 2 II.). We use this building-level segmentation $M_t^\star$ for visualization of the 3D reconstruction results in our UI (Fig. 2 VI). + +# 3.2 Depth prediction from perspective sketches + +Given a perspective sketch $S_{p}$ and a top-down building mask $M_{t}$ , we aim to predict perspective depth maps $D_{p}$ and foreground masks $M_{p}$ (Fig. 2 III.) - We use a subscript $p$ to denote maps of the perspective views. In contrast to the masks in Sec. 3.1, $M_{p}$ labels both the building and ground pixels as foreground, with the background being sky pixels. + +Network design Predicting depth from a single sparse sketch is an ill-posed problem. Moreover, in our scenario, each sketch can be quite complex with multiple buildings and occlusions. We design our perspective view depth predictor to handle such complex urban scenes. + +Our architecture is inspired by a multi-view depth estimation method [66]. The backbone of this network is a UNet++ architecture, identical to the one we introduced in Sec. 3.1. To reduce ambiguity in a perspective view, we leverage top-down view information. However, applying the multi-view stereo as in [66,78] is not feasible, as our views have little visual overlap so it is infeasible to perform meaningful feature matching between such views. Instead, we exploit the fact that the top-down building occupancy mask, $M_t$ , provides information on whether a location in 3D space is free. We construct a 3D occupancy volume, which is aligned with the perspective view frustum. We construct it by slicing the 3D view frustum of the perspective camera with $n$ depth planes at equidistant intervals between the near $d_{\mathrm{near}}$ and far planes $d_{\mathrm{far}}$ . We populate the occupancy volume by setting all voxels that fall above non-occupied regions to $-\nu$ and all voxels above occupied regions to $\nu$ . We discuss the choice of $\nu$ in detail in the supplemental material. Intuitively, we pick $\nu$ to be sufficiently large, but within the range of our encoder features. We feed 3D occupancy features as input to the UNet++ encoder. Namely, the 3D occupancy features are of shape $D \times H \times W$ , where $D$ is the number of depth planes. When feeding these features into the 2D encoder in the UNet++, we consider depth planes as image feature channels $C$ . Then, similarly to [66], we pass the input sketch through a ResNet-50 encoder to obtain multi-level features. Starting from the first layer of the UNet++, at every second layer, we concatenate output features with corresponding encoded sketch features. This network design allows us to efficiently inject top-down sketch information, resulting in more accurate perspective depth predictions. We provide the ablation study of our design in Sec. 4. + +Training During training, we use ground-truth $M_t$ building occupancy masks. We train our depth predictor with a weighted sum of four loss terms, so + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {D} = \omega_ {d} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d e p t h}} + \omega_ {g} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {g r a d}} + \omega_ {n} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p , n o r m}} + \omega_ {m} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}}, \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\omega_{*}$ denotes the weight of the corresponding loss component. We introduce each term below. + +$\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{depth}}$ is a multi-scale loss on depth predictions, that was shown to provide sharper depth maps at depth discontinuities than a loss applied only at the final depth map resolution [19,25,26,66]. Following previous works, we predict depths at four resolutions from different levels of our UNet++ decoder, such that at each of the subsequent scales the spatial resolution is doubled. It is defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {d e p t h}} = \sum_ {s = 1} ^ {S} \left\| \left(D _ {p}\right) _ {s} - \left(D _ {p} ^ {g t}\right) _ {s} \right\| _ {1} \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\| \cdot \|_1$ is the $L_1$ -norm and $(D_{ps}, D_{ps}^{gt})$ are the predicted and ground-truth depth maps at the $s^{th}$ scale. + +Similarly, inspired by [45, 66], to encourage smoother gradient changes and sharper depth discontinuities in predicted depth maps, we use a multi-scale loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{grad}}$ that penalizes differences in depth gradients between the predicted and ground-truth depth map: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {g r a d}} = \sum_ {s = 1} ^ {S} \left\| \nabla_ {x} R _ {s} \right\| _ {1} + \left\| \nabla_ {y} R _ {s} \right\| _ {1}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $R_{s} = (D_{p})_{s} - (D_{p}^{gt})_{s}$ + +Following Yin et al. [80], who showed that a geometric constraint on normal maps improves monocular depth estimation, we use a loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{p,norm}}$ between ground-truth $N_{p}^{gt}$ and predicted $N_{p}$ normal maps: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {p}, \text {n o r m}} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \left(1 - \left(N _ {p}\right) _ {i} \cdot \left(N _ {p} ^ {g t}\right) _ {i}\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +where we sum over the dot products of normal vectors $(N_p^*)_i \in \mathbb{R}^3$ in corresponding normal map locations $i$ . We observed that this loss improves the performance in our setting as well. Both $N_p$ and $N_p^{gt}$ are computed on the fly from their corresponding depth maps. + +Finally, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{mask}}$ is a weighted BCE loss, defined similarly to the one in Eq. (1). We use it to segment out building and ground pixels. + +# 3.3 Conditional diffusion model for 3D building reconstruction + +In the previous section, we described how we obtain a depth estimation for a perspective sketch view. As the next step, we backproject the depth map to + +obtain a 3D point cloud. From this point cloud, we initialize a heightfield of the city block aligned with the top-down user sketch. To account for possible inaccuracies in the depth prediction network, we leverage a mask $M_{t}$ , predicted with our building occupancy mask estimation network as described in Sec. 3.1. We set all heightfield predictions that fall outside the occupied regions to a constant ground-level value. We then use a diffusion model conditioned on the input sketch and the initial heightfield from the perspective sketch view to complete missing depth regions in the top-down view. Since our conditioning relies on both views, the model predicts plausible 3D buildings that align with user sketches. Note that, during training, we initialize heightfields using ground-truth perspective view depth maps. + +Network architecture We build on the latent space diffusion model by Duan et al. [17], adapting it to handle multiple conditions. We chose a latent diffusion model due to its memory efficiency and inference speed compared to image-space diffusion models. + +We map ground-truth depth maps to a latent space using a depth encoder: $z = \mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{depth}}(D_t^{gt})$ . Additionally, we encode sketch and depth conditions: $c_{\mathrm{sketch}} = \mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{sketch}}(C_{St})$ and $c_{\mathrm{depth}} = \mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{depth}}(C_{Dt})$ , respectively. We initialize $\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{sketch}}$ and $\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{depth}}$ with pre-trained weights. Specifically, for $\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{sketch}}$ , we employ a ResNet-50 architecture pre-trained on ImageNet. For the depth encoder, we employ the one from the Stable Diffusion [62]. We pre-train the autoencoder following their strategy and supervise using ground-truth top-down depth maps $D_t^{gt}$ using KL-regularization in the latent space. We fine-tune both latent encoders when training the full model. + +To construct the final input to the denoising network, we combine the sketch, $c_{\mathrm{sketch}}$ , and depth, $c_{\mathrm{depth}}$ , conditions with the noisy depth latent $z_{k}$ , for a given noise level $k$ . To align features, we pass latent representations $c_{\mathrm{depth}}$ and $z_{k}$ through two separate CNNs, consisting of two convolutional layers. The final denoising network input is created by combining sketch latent features and depth conditions with the noisy depth latent through an element-wise summation. + +Training The training objective for the diffusion process is defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {d i f f}} = \mathbb {E} _ {k \sim [ 1, T ], z _ {k}, \epsilon_ {k}} \left[ \| \epsilon_ {k} - \epsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {k}, c _ {S _ {t}}, c _ {D _ {t}}, k\right) \| \right] ^ {2}, \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\epsilon_t$ and $\epsilon_{\theta}$ are the ground-truth and predicted noise maps, at timestep $k$ . + +Additionally, we use auxiliary pixel-based losses to help train the conditioning process. Firstly, $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ losses on predicted $D_{t}$ and ground-truth $D_{t}^{gt}$ depth maps are used, defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {L _ {1}} = \left\| D _ {t} - D _ {t} ^ {g t} \right\| _ {1} \quad \text {a n d} \quad \mathcal {L} _ {L _ {2}} = \left\| D _ {t} - D _ {t} ^ {g t} \right\| _ {2}. \tag {7} +$$ + +We also use a loss on normal maps $\mathcal{L}_{t,norm}$ , defined similarly to the one in Eq.

We assign $d_{\mathrm{ground}}$ to the maximum depth value in $D_t$ . + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section, we evaluate our method on synthetic sketches. We first evaluate our perspective depth prediction network and discuss the importance of various design choices. We then assess our complete method, by evaluating our top-down completion network on inputs predicted by the perspective depth network. We compare with a few alternative baselines and ablate our design choices. The details of data generation and splits are provided in the supplemental. + +Perspective depth prediction In Tab. 1, we assess our design choices for the perspective depth prediction network and compare against several baselines using standard depth metrics [19]. Briefly, Abs Diff is the absolute difference between ground-truth and predicted depth maps, Abs Rel is the absolute difference normalized by the ground-truth depth map, Sq Rel is the square of Abs Rel, RMSE is the root mean square error between both depth maps, Log RMSE is the root mean square error on logged depths, and $a5$ is the ratio of pixels whose depth values have a relative depth error lower than $5\%$ . + +Baselines: We train a naive monocular depth predictor baseline from Sayed et al. [66] without a cost volume (no source views for multi-view stereo), which we refer to as Mono, and compare two image encoder backbones. In Tab. 1, lines [1-2] refer to $\text{Mono}_S$ for a smaller (EfficientNet [71]) and $\text{Mono}_L$ for a larger encoder (ResNet-50 [31]). A large image encoder leads to superiority across all depth metrics, with a minimal increase in inference speed - 0.16s on average per sample. Given this, we use this larger backbone for all other experiments. + +Ablations: In Tab. 1, $OV$ represents our model with the occupancy volume obtained as described in Sec. 3.2.

Then, the aim of our diffusion model, introduced in Sec. 3.3, is to produce top-down depth maps faithful to the top-down sketch $S_{t}$ and height cues $C_{Dt}$ . + +

Please see Sec. 4 for details. The notation in this table matches the caption of Tab. 2. We details on the metrics: Completion, Accuracy, Chamfer Distance, Precision, Recall, and F-Score can be found in [5]. + +We first ablate the design of our network and then compare it with a deterministic baseline. For evaluations, we use metrics in 2D (Tab. 2) and 3D (Tab. 3), comparing against the ground-truth. For 2D evaluation, we use metrics similar to the ones in Tab. 1. Since we focus on buildings and not the terrain, we compute all 2D metrics only within buildings' ground-truth regions, using building masks $M_{t}$ . We evaluate 3D metrics only for the parts of geometries observed in the perspective sketch viewpoints. This allows us to focus the evaluation on regions for which the perspective sketches provide explicit control of the buildings' heights. Before computing sampled point cloud distances between predicted and ground-truth meshes, we remove points not in the region around the back-projected ground-truth perspective depth map. + +Role of pre-training: Tab. 2 demonstrates the importance of pretraining sketch and depth encoders, $\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{sketch}}$ and $\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{depth}}$ , respectively.

While adding a normal loss hurts quantitative 3D metrics, we advocate its usage as it produces much sharper and smoother surfaces, as shown in Fig. 4 and supported with Tab. 2. + +Comparison with a deterministic baseline: Qualitative results of our method are shown in Fig. 5 (d) and (g): We can infer realistic building geometries following input sketches that closely resemble the ground-truth - Fig. 5 (e) and (h). We compare our generative approach against the HeightFields [75] baseline - a deterministic model designed for heightfield completion from multi-frame RGB sequences. We train and test it on the same input as our model and visualize the results in Fig. 5 (c) and (f). In particular, the HeightFields model's test time input is the output of our first step: the predicted partial point cloud from a perspective view. This model is not a suitable stand-alone method for the task. To train this model, we also added $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{t,norm}}$ , as we found it to result in better performance. However, even with this additional loss, the HeightFields model fails to produce buildings with correct heights, and produces less plausible building geometries. In particular, it fails to capture sharp details and flat rooftops. + +Tabs. 2 and 3 show quantitative comparison of our full model with Height-Fields [75] baseline.

Broadly, the UI lets users sketch perspective and top-down views on 2D canvases, edit strokes, project a top-down sketch into the perspective canvas to align their sketches, and contains a 3D viewer. An overview of the UI is in Fig. 1 and is described in greater detail in the supplemental. + +Evaluation: To validate our system, we run a proof-of-concept user study. For the study, we collaborated with one of the world-leading schools in urban design, the Bartlett School of Architecture, at University College London. We engaged 5 urban design architects: 2 undergraduate students, advanced in their studies, and 3 postgraduates with varying years of professional practice. Additionally, to test how friendly our system is for users with limited modeling and sketching experience, we engaged 5 further volunteers. All users watched a short video tutorial and had 5 minutes to play with the interface before starting the task. To have a concrete qualitative goal in our main study, we chose to provide participants with reference top-down and perspective renderings as underlays (the example screenshot is provided in the supplemental). We selected 9 scenes, randomly distributed between participants. Each participant drew two scenes. + +In a post-study questionnaire, all architects indicated that they were able to recreate the building from the reference in under 5 minutes. As expected, it was more challenging for novices, yet, $2/5$ were satisfied with the outcome. On a 5-point Likert scale, architects (novices) gave an average score of 0.8 (1.2) on how well the results match the reference, with $+2$ for matching the reference well and $-2$ for failing completely. On a 5-point Likert scale, architects gave an average 1.4 score on how likely they are to use such an interface: where $-2$ for highly unlikely and $+2$ for highly likely.

The detailed statistics for the post-study questionnaire are provided in the supplementary. + +In our pilot study, architects consistently indicated that it would take them about 10 minutes in Rhino for scenes comparable to the ones we target. The pilot study on SketchUp, documented in the supplemental, similarly showed that it is not suitable for fast prototyping. This, in particular, shows the lack of convenient tools for early design stages and reinforces the motivation for our work. + +Two urban design architects also did freehand modeling after the main study and completed post-study questionnaires. These sketches are shown in Fig. 6. + +# 6 Conclusion and discussion + +We have presented the first sketch-based method for early-stage urban design, aligning it with the Human-Centered AI philosophy [68]. Taking into account design workflows that commonly start from top-down city layouts, we proposed models that, while working in image space, efficiently leverage information from both perspective and top-down sketch views. GroundUp addresses the especially challenging (but not unique) aspects of our problem: complexity and diversity of scene geometries, sparsity of sketch inputs, and incomplete depth cues in user-provided views. While we only show the results for a single perspective sketch, our system is trivially extended to a multi-view setting: by projecting point clouds inferred from extra perspective sketches into the top-down views passed to our diffusion model. We provide numerical experiments in the supplemental. With this work, we have taken a step toward quick building massing. To propel the integration of our tool into design workflows, future work might focus on directly predicting editable mesh representations and supporting finer details. Additionally, it could be interesting to extend this work to trees and terrain, for example, by sketching trunks and contour lines for the terrain. + +# Acknowledgements + +We thank Prof. Tobias Ritschel for his invaluable feedback and help; Natalia Laskovaya for an inspiring and detailed early discussion on design processes in architecture; Sharon Betts for her huge help in making our user study possible.

We propose GroundUp, the first sketch-based ideation tool for 3D city massing of urban areas. We focus on early-stage urban design, where sketching is a common tool and the design starts from balancing building volumes (masses) and open spaces. With Human-Centered AI in mind, we aim to help architects quickly revise their ideas by easily switching between 2D sketches and 3D models, allowing for smoother iteration and sharing of ideas. Inspired by feedback from architects and existing workflows, our system takes as a first input a user sketch of multiple buildings in a top-down view. The user then draws a perspective sketch of the envisioned site. Our method is designed to exploit the complementarity of information in the two sketches and allows users to quickly preview and adjust the inferred 3D shapes. Our model has two main components. First, we propose a novel sketch-to-depth prediction network for perspective sketches that exploits top-down sketch shapes. Second, we use depth cues derived from the perspective sketch as a condition to our diffusion model, which ultimately completes the geometry in a top-down view. Thus, our final 3D geometry is represented as a heightfield, allowing users to construct the city \"from the ground up\".

Currently, they iterate further in 2D with fellow architects on a shortlist of favorites, before re-doing just one or a few designs in 3D software (e.g. Rhino or Sketchup), to test out the idea.

Between a top-down and perspective sketch, it is hard to expect texture regions to match in appearance, making off-the-shelf approaches targeting 3D reconstruction from multi-view images [18, 47, 66] inapplicable to our problem. Additionally, urban areas are inherently complex scenes, so perspective views that convey building heights and roof shapes also suffer from extreme self-occlusions.

To further alleviate uncertainty, in single object modeling, symmetry can be leveraged [30, 79]. Other approaches regress parameters of predefined procedural programs [56, 58], or assume availability of additional information [41, 86]. For our task of modeling 3D building shape masses in city neighborhoods, we have more pronounced uncertainty from the multiple layers of occlusions in any perspective view.

Taking into account design workflows that commonly start from top-down city layouts, we proposed models that, while working in image space, efficiently leverage information from both perspective and top-down sketch views. GroundUp addresses the especially challenging (but not unique) aspects of our problem: complexity and diversity of scene geometries, sparsity of sketch inputs, and incomplete depth cues in user-provided views. While we only show the results for a single perspective sketch, our system is trivially extended to a multi-view setting: by projecting point clouds inferred from extra perspective sketches into the top-down views passed to our diffusion model. We provide numerical experiments in the supplemental. With this work, we have taken a step toward quick building massing. To propel the integration of our tool into design workflows, future work might focus on directly predicting editable mesh representations and supporting finer details. Additionally, it could be interesting to extend this work to trees and terrain, for example, by sketching trunks and contour lines for the terrain." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 11 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 144, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 144, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 144, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "14" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 90, + 211, + 100 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 90, + 211, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 90, + 211, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Unlui et al." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 1 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 13 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 114, + 246, + 129 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 114, + 246, + 129 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 114, + 246, + 129 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Acknowledgements" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 143, + 482, + 203 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 143, + 482, + 203 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 143, + 482, + 203 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "We thank Prof. Tobias Ritschel for his invaluable feedback and help; Natalia Laskovaya for an inspiring and detailed early discussion on design processes in architecture; Sharon Betts for her huge help in making our user study possible.

(c) We present an image editing application by combining Grounding DINO and Stable Diffusion [40]. Best viewed in colors. + +Abstract. In this paper, we develop an open-set object detector, called Grounding DINO, by marrying Transformer-based detector DINO with grounded pre-training, which can detect arbitrary objects with human inputs such as category names or referring expressions. The key solution of open-set object detection is introducing language to a closed-set detector for open-set concept generalization. To effectively fuse language and vision modalities, we conceptually divide a closed-set detector into three phases and propose a tight fusion solution, which includes a feature enhancer, a language-guided query selection, and a cross-modality decoder for modalities fusion. We first pre-train Grounding DINO on large-scale datasets, + +including object detection data, grounding data, and caption data, and evaluate the model on both open-set object detection and referring object detection benchmarks. Grounding DINO performs remarkably well on all three settings, including benchmarks on COCO, LVIS, ODinW, and RefCOCO/+/g. Grounding DINO achieves a 52.5 AP on the COCO zero-shot $^{1}$ detection benchmark. It sets a new record on the ODinW zero-shot benchmark with a mean 26.1 AP. We release some checkpoints and inference codes at https://github.com/IDEA-Research/GroundingDINO. + +Keywords: Object Detection $\cdot$ Image Grounding $\cdot$ Multi-modal learning + +# 1 Introduction + +A key indicator of an Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) system's capability is its proficiency in handling open-world scenarios. In this paper, we aim to develop a strong system to detect arbitrary objects specified by human language inputs, a task commonly referred to as open-set object detection2. The task has wide applications for its great potential as a generic object detector. For example, we can cooperate with generative models for image editing (as shown in Fig. 1 (b)). + +In pursuit of this goal, we design the strong open-set object detector Grounding DINO by following the two principles: tight modality fusion based on DINO [56] and large-scale grounded pre-train for concept generalization. + +Tight modality fusion based on DINO. The key to open-set detection is introducing language for unseen object generalization [1,6,24]. Most existing open-set detectors are developed by extending closed-set detectors to open-set scenarios with language information. As shown in Fig. 2, a closed-set detector typically has three important modules, a backbone for feature extraction, a neck for feature enhancement, and a head for region refinement (or box prediction). A closed-set detector can be generalized to detect novel objects by learning language-aware region embeddings so that each region can be classified into novel categories in a language-aware semantic space. The key to achieving this goal is using contrastive loss between region outputs and language features at the neck + +and/or head outputs. To help a model align cross-modality information some work tried to fuse features before the final loss stage. We summarize the modulized design + +![](images/a7145f69a8e398231250672b4d34ec039badb55117e5490ece788596ccde5963.jpg) +Fig. 2: Extending closed-set detectors to open-set scenarios. + +of object detectors in Fig. 2. Feature fusion can be performed in three phases: neck (phase A), query initialization (phase B), and head (phase C). For example, GLIP [24] performs early fusion in the neck module (phase A), and OV-DETR [54] uses language-aware queries as head inputs (phase B). We argue that introducing more feature fusion into the pipeline can facilitate better alignment between different modality features, thereby achieving better performance. + +Although conceptually simple, it is hard for previous work to perform feature fusion in all three phases. The design of classical detectors like Faster RCNN makes it hard to interact with language information in most blocks. Unlike classical detectors, the Transformer-based detector method such as DINO has a consistent structure with language blocks. The layer-by-layer design enables it to interact with language information easily. Under this principle, we design three feature fusion approaches in the neck, query initialization, and head phases. More specifically, we design a feature enhancer by stacking self-attention, text-to-image cross-attention, and image-to-text cross-attention as the neck module. We then develop a language-guided query selection method to initialize queries for the detection head. We also design a cross-modality decoder for the head phase with image and text cross-attention layers to boost query representations. + +Large-scale grounded pre-train for zero-shot transfer. Most existing open-set models [13, 20] rely on pre-trained CLIP models for concept generalization. Nevertheless, the efficacy of CLIP, specifically pre-trained on image-text pairs, is limited for region-text pair detection tasks, as identified in the Region-CLIP study by RegionCLIP [60]. In contrast, GLIP [24] presents a different way by reformulating object detection as a phrase grounding task and introducing contrastive training between object regions and language phrases on large-scale data. It shows great flexibility for heterogeneous datasets and remarkable performance on closed-set and open-set detection. + +We have adopted and refined the grounded training methodology. GLIP's approach involves concatenating all categories into a sentence in a random order. However, the direct category names concatenation does not consider the potential influence of unrelated categories on each other when extracting features. To mitigate this issue and improve model performance during grounded training, we introduce a technique that utilizes sub-sentence level text features. It removes the attention between unrelated categories during word feature extractions. Further elaboration on this technique can be found in Section 3.4. + +We pre-train the Grounding DINO on a large-scale dataset and evaluate the performance on mainstream object detection benchmarks like COCO [28]. While some studies have examined open-set detection models under a "partial label" framework—training on a subset of data (e.g., base categories) and testing on additional categories—we advocate for a fully zero-shot approach to enhance practical applicability. Moreover, we extend the model to another important scenario Referring Expression Comprehension (REC) [29,33]3, where objects are described with attributes. + +We conduct experiments on all three settings, including closed-set detection, open-set detection, and referring object detection, as shown in Fig. 1, to comprehensively evaluate open-set detection performance. Grounding DINO outperforms competitors by a large margin. For example, Grounding DINO reaches a 52.5 AP on COCO minimal without any COCO training data. It also establishes a new state of the art on the ODinW [22] zero-shot benchmark with a 26.1 mean AP. + +

+ +Table 1: A comparison of previous open-set object detectors. Our summarization is based on the experiments in their paper, but not the ability to extend their models to other tasks. It is worth noting that some related works may not (only) be designed for the open-set object detection initially, like MDETR [17] and GLIPv2 [57], but we list them here for a comprehensive comparison with existing work. We use the term "partial label" for the settings, where models are trained on partial data (e.g. base categories) and evaluated on other cases. [55] + +# 2 Related Work + +Detection Transformers. Grounding DINO is built upon the DETR-like model DINO [56], which is an end-to-end Transformer-based detector. DETR was first proposed in [2] and then has been improved from many directions [4, 5, 12, 16, 32, 47, 63] in the past few years. DAB-DETR [30] introduces anchor boxes as DETR queries for more accurate box prediction. DN-DETR [23] proposes a query-denoising approach to stabilizing the bipartite matching. DINO [56] further develops several techniques including contrastive de-noising and sets a new record on the COCO object detection benchmark. However, such detectors mainly focus on closed-set detection and are difficult to generalize to novel classes because of the limited pre-defined categories. + +Open-Set Object Detection. Open-set object detection is trained using existing bounding box annotations and aims at detecting arbitrary classes with the help of language generalization. OV-DETR [55] uses image and text embedding encoded by a CLIP model as queries to decode the category-specified boxes in the DETR framework [2]. ViLD [13] distills knowledge from a CLIP teacher model into a R-CNN-like detector so that the learned region embeddings contain the semantics of language. GLIP [11] formulates object detection as a grounding problem and leverages additional grounding data to help learn aligned semantics + +![](images/b6c23d7cce6c12675e78f340ca112ed4a788a4a065249feaf48fdf541f623ea3.jpg) +Fig. 3: The framework of Grounding DINO. We present the overall framework, a feature enhancer layer, and a decoder layer in block 1, block 2, and block 3, respectively. + +![](images/356f672f279383c36dd20786faaeff98c4811b03320fa55f353ee2dae75a5f18.jpg) + +at phrase and region levels. It shows that such a formulation can even achieve stronger performance on fully-supervised detection benchmarks. DetCLIP [51] involves large-scale image captioning datasets and uses the generated pseudo labels to expand the knowledge database. The generated pseudo labels effectively help extend the generalization ability. + +However, previous works only fuse multi-modal information in partial phases, which may lead to sub-optimal language generalization ability. For example, GLIP only considers fusion in the feature enhancement (phase A) and OV-DETR only injects language information at the decoder inputs (phase B). Moreover, the REC task is normally overlooked in evaluation, which is an important scenario for open-set detection. We compare our model with other open-set methods in Table 1. + +# 3 Grounding DINO + +Grounding DINO outputs multiple pairs of object boxes and noun phrases for a given (Image, Text) pair. For example, as shown in Fig. 3, the model locates a cat and a table from the input image and extracts word cat and table from the input text as corresponding labels. Both object detection and REC tasks can be aligned with the pipeline. Following GLIP [24], we concatenate all category names as input texts for object detection tasks. REC requires a bounding box for + +each text input. We use the output object with the largest scores as the output for the REC task. + +Grounding DINO is a dual-encoder-single-decoder architecture. It contains an image backbone for image feature extraction, a text backbone for text feature extraction, a feature enhancer for image and text feature fusion (Sec. 3.1), a language-guided query selection module for query initialization (Sec. 3.2), and a cross-modality decoder for box refinement (Sec. 3.3). + +For each (Image, Text) pair, we first extract vanilla image features and vanilla text features using an image backbone and a text backbone, respectively. The two vanilla features are fed into a feature enhancer module for cross-modality feature fusion. After obtaining cross-modality text and image features, we use a language-guided query selection module to select cross-modality queries from image features. Like the object queries in most DETR-like models, these cross-modality queries will be fed into a cross-modality decoder to probe desired features from the two modal features and update themselves. The output queries of the last decoder layer will be used to predict object boxes and extract corresponding phrases. + +![](images/21d02da1dd367602577f5e5b21911ab9991111c5be4e2ad09b473132e1095bac.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparisons of text representations. + +# 3.1 Feature Extraction and Enhancer + +Given an (Image, Text) pair, we extract multi-scale image features with an image backbone like Swin Transformer [31], and text features with a text backbone like BERT [7]. Following previous DETR-like detectors [56,63], multi-scale features are extracted from the outputs of different blocks. After extracting vanilla image and text features, we fed them into a feature enhancer for cross-modality feature fusion. The feature enhancer includes multiple feature enhancer layers. We illustrate a feature enhancer layer in Fig. 3 block 2. We leverage the Deformable self-attention to enhance image features and the vanilla self-attention for text feature enhancers. Inspired by GLIP [24], we add an image-to-text and a text-to-image cross-attention modules for feature fusion. These modules help align features of different modalities. + +# 3.2 Language-Guided Query Selection + +Grounding DINO aims to detect objects from an image specified by an input text. To effectively leverage the input text to guide object detection, we design a + +language-guided query selection module to select features that are more relevant to the input text as decoder queries. + +Let's denote the image feature as $\mathbf{X}_I \in \mathbb{R}^{N_I \times d}$ and the text features as $\mathbf{X}_T \in \mathbb{R}^{N_T \times d}$ . Here, $N_I$ represents the number of image tokens, $N_T$ indicates the number of text tokens, and $d$ corresponds to the feature dimension. In our experiments, we specifically utilize a feature dimension of $d = 256$ . Typically, in our models, the value of $N_I$ exceeds 10,000, while $N_T$ remains below 256. Our objective is to extract $N_q$ queries from the encoder's image features to be used as inputs for the decoder. In alignment with the DINO method, we set $N_q$ to be 900. The top $N_q$ query indices for the image feature, denoted as $\mathbf{I}_{N_q}$ , are selected using the following expression: + +$$ +\mathbf {I} _ {N _ {q}} = \operatorname {T o p} _ {N _ {q}} (\operatorname {M a x} ^ {(- 1)} (\mathbf {X} _ {I} \mathbf {X} _ {T} ^ {\intercal})). \tag {1} +$$ + +In this expression, $\mathrm{Top}_{N_q}$ represents the operation to pick the top $N_{q}$ indices. The function $\mathbf{Max}^{(-1)}$ executes the max operation along the $-1$ dimension, and the symbol $\daleth$ denotes matrix transposition. We present the query selection process in Algorithm 1 in PyTorch style. The language-guided query selection module outputs $N_{q}$ indices. We can extract features based on the selected indices to initialize queries. Following DINO [56], we use mixed query selection to initialize decoder queries. Each decoder query contains two parts: content part and positional part [32], respectively. We formulate the positional part as dynamic anchor boxes [30], which are initialized with encoder outputs. The other part, the content queries, are set to be learnable during training. + +# 3.3 Cross-Modality Decoder + +We develop a cross-modality decoder to combine image and text modality features, as shown in Fig. 3 block 3. Each cross-modality query is fed into a self-attention layer, an image cross-attention layer to combine image features, a text cross-attention layer to combine text features, and an FFN layer in each cross-modality decoder layer. Each decoder layer has an extra text cross-attention layer compared with the DINO decoder layer, as we need to inject text information into queries for better modality alignment. + +# 3.4 Sub-Sentence Level Text Feature + +Two kinds of text prompts are explored in previous works, which we named as sentence level representation and word level representation, as shown in Fig. 4. Sentence level representation [34,51] encodes a whole sentence to one feature. If some sentences in phrase grounding data have multiple phrases, it extracts these phrases and discards other words. In this way, it removes the influence between words while losing fine-grained information in sentences. Word level representation [11,17] enables encoding multiple category names with one forward but introduces unnecessary dependencies among categories, especially when the input text is a concatenation of multiple category names in an arbitrary order. + +

We list the result here for a reference. + +As shown in Fig. 4 (b), some unrelated words interact during attention. To avoid unwanted word interactions, we introduce attention masks to block attentions among unrelated category names, named "sub-sentence" level representation. It eliminates the influence between different category names while keeping per-word features for fine-grained understanding. + +# 3.5 Loss Function + +Following previous DETR-like works [2, 23, 30, 32, 56, 63], we use the L1 loss and the GIOU [39] loss for bounding box regressions. We follow GLIP [24] and use contrastive loss between predicted objects and language tokens for classification. Specifically, we dot product each query with text features to predict logits for each text token and then compute focal loss [27] for each logit. Box regression and classification costs are first used for bipartite matching between predictions and ground truths. We then calculate final losses between ground truths and matched predictions with the same loss components. Following DETR-like models, we add auxiliary loss after each decoder layer and after the encoder outputs. + +# 4 Experiments + +We conduct extensive experiments on three settings: a closed-set setting on the COCO detection benchmark (Sec. C.2), an open-set setting on zero-shot COCO, LVIS, and ODinW (Sec. 4.2), and a referring detection setting on RefCOCO $/ + / \mathrm{g}$ (Sec. 4.3). Ablations are then conducted to show the effectiveness of our model design (Sec. 4.5). We also explore a way to transfer a well-trained DINO to the + +open-set scenario by training a few plug-in modules in Sec. C.1. The test of our model efficiency is presented in Sec. C.4. + +# 4.1 Implementation Details + +We trained two model variants, Grounding DINO T with Swin-T [31], and Grounding DINO L with Swin-L [31] as an image backbone, respectively. We leveraged BERT-base [7] from Hugging Face [48] as text backbones. As we focus more on the model performance on novel classes, we list zero-shot transfer and referring detection results in the main text. + +By default, we use 900 queries in our model following DINO. We set the maximum text token number as 256. Using BERT as our text encoder, we follow BERT to tokenize texts with a BPE scheme [41]. We use six feature enhancer layers in the feature enhancer module. The cross-modality decoder is composed of six decoder layers as well. We leverage deformable attention [63] in image cross-attention layers. + +Both matching costs and final losses include classification losses (or contrastive losses), box L1 losses, and GIOU [39] losses. Following DINO, we set the weight of classification costs, box L1 costs, and GIOU costs as 2.0, 5.0, and 2.0, respectively, during Hungarian matching. The corresponding loss weights are 1.0, 5.0, and 2.0 in the final loss calculation. + +Our Swin Transformer Tiny models are trained on 16 Nvidia V100 GPUs with a total batch size of 32. We extract three image feature scales, from $8 \times$ to $32 \times$ . It is named "4scale" in DINO since we downsample the $32 \times$ feature map to $64 \times$ as an extra feature scale. For the model with Swin Transformer Large, we extract four image feature scales from backbones, from $4 \times$ to $32 \times$ . The model is trained on 64 Nvidia A100 GPUs with a total batch size of 64. + +# 4.2 Zero-Shot Transfer of Grounding DINO + +In this setting, we pre-train models on large-scale datasets and directly evaluate models on new datasets. We also list some fine-tuned results for a more thorough comparison of our model with prior works. + +COCO Benchmark We compare Grounding DINO with GLIP and DINO in Table 2. We pre-train models on large-scale datasets and directly evaluate our model on the COCO benchmark. As the O365 dataset [42] has (nearly $^4$ ) covered all categories in COCO, we evaluate an O365 pre-trined DINO on COCO as a zero-shot baseline. The result shows that DINO performs better on the COCO zero-shot transfer than DyHead. Grounding DINO outperforms all previous models on the zero-shot transfer setting, with $+0.5\mathrm{AP}$ and $+1.8\mathrm{AP}$ compared with DINO and GLIP under the same setting. Grounding data is still helpful for Grounding DINO, introducing more than 1AP (48.1 vs. 46.7) on the zero-shot + +transfer setting. With stronger backbones and larger data, Grounding DINO sets a new record of 52.5 AP on the COCO object detection benchmark without seeing any COCO images during training. Grounding DINO obtains a 62.6 AP on COCO minimal, outperforming DINO's 62.5 AP. When enlarging the input images by $1.5 \times$ , the benefits reduce. We suspect that the text branch enlarges the gap between models with different input images. Even though the performance plateaus with larger input size, Grounding DINO gets an impressive 63.0 AP on COCO test-dev with fine-tuning on the COCO dataset (See the number in brackets of Table 2). + +LVIS Benchmark LVIS [14] is a dataset for long-tail objects. It contains more than 1000 categories for evaluation. We use LVIS as a downstream task to test the zero-shot abilities of our model. We use GLIP and DetCLIPv2 as baselines for our models. The results are shown in Table 3. + +

+ +Table 3: Model results on LVIS. + +We found two interesting phenomena in the results. First, Grounding DINO works better than common objects than GLIP, but worse on rare categories. We reviewed DETR-like models on LVIS and noted these models often exhibit lower rare category AP despite similar overall AP, like Table 2 of [8] and Table 6 of [17]. To our knowledge, no existing DETR-like models effectively address the rarity challenge in LVIS without extra training data, which may be a characteristic limitation of the architecture. + +The other phenomenon is that Grounding DINO has larger gains with more data than GLIP. For example, Grounding DINO introduces $+1.8$ AP gains with the caption data Cap4M, whereas GLIP has only $+1.1$ AP. We believe that Grounding DINO has better scalability compared with GLIP. A larger-scale training will be left as our future work. + +Although achieving better results than GLIP, we found that Grounding DINO is inferior to DetCLIPv2, which is trained on a larger scale data. This performance difference might be attributed to the disparity in data distribution between the training dataset and the LVIS dataset. + +To unveil the full potential of Grounding DINO, we fine-tuned it on the LVIS dataset. Table 3 highlights the commendable capability of our model. Remarkably, despite being pre-trained only on the O365 and GoldG datasets, Grounding DINO outperforms DetCLIPv2-T by a margin of 1.5 AP. This result shows that Grounding DINO might have learned a better object-level representation which helps yield a better performance after fine-tuning (aligning with the target dataset). In our future work, we will perform more studies, including varying the semantic concept coverage of the training data and increasing the scale of the training data, to further improve the zero-shot generalization performance. + +

It collects more than 35 datasets for evaluation. We report three settings, zero-shot, few-shot, and full-shot results in Table 4. Grounding DINO performs well on this benchmark. With only O365 and GoldG for pre-train, Grounding DINO T outperforms DINO on few-shot and full-shot settings.

Grounding DINO and GLIPv2-T show similar $AP_{average}$ . However, a key distinction lies in the $AP_{median}$ , where Grounding DINO significantly outperforms GLIPv2-T (11.9 vs 8.9). This suggests that while GLIPv2 may exhibit larger performance variance across different datasets, Grounding DINO maintains a more consistent performance level.

+ +Table 5: Top-1 accuracy comparison on the referring expression comprehension task. We mark the best results in bold. All models are trained with a ResNet-101 backbone. We use the notations "CC", "SBU", "VG", "OI", "O365", and "YFCC" for Conceptual Captions [43], SBU Captions [35], Visual Genome [19], OpenImage [21], Objects365 [62], YFCC100M [46] respectively. The term "RefC" is used for RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, and RefCOCOg three datasets. * There might be a data leak since COCO includes validation images in RefC. But the annotations of the two datasets are different. + +# 4.4 Effects of RefC and COCO Data + +We add the $\mathrm{RefCOCO} / + / \mathrm{g}$ (we note it as "RefC" in tables) and COCO into training in some settings. We explore the influence of these data in Table 6. + +The results show that RefC helps improve the COCO zero-shot and fine-tuning performance but hurts the LVIS and ODinW results. With COCO introduced, the COCO results are greatly improved. It shows that COCO brings marginal improvements in LVIS and slight decreases on ODinW. + +

+ +Table 6: Impacts of RefC and COCO data for open-set settings. All models are trained with a Swin Transformer Tiny backbone. + +# 4.5 Ablations + +We conduct ablation studies in this section. We propose a tight fusion grounding model for open-set object detection and a sub-sentence level text prompt. To verify the effectiveness of the model design, we remove some fusion blocks for different variants. Results are shown in Table 7. All models are pre-trained on O365 with a Swin-T backbone. + +The results show that encoder fusion significantly improves model performance on both COCO and LVIS datasets. The results from comparing model #1 with the baseline model #0 validate this observation. Other techniques, such as language-guided query selection, text cross-attention, and sub-sentence text prompt, also contribute positively to the LVIS performance, yielding significant gains of $+3.0$ AP, $+1.8$ AP, and $+0.5$ AP, respectively. Additionally, these methods enhance the COCO zero-shot performance, further underscoring their effectiveness. However, we observed that language-guided query selection and sub-sentence text prompt had minimal impact on the COCO fine-tune performance. This outcome is reasonable, given that these methods do not alter model parameters or add computational burdens. Text cross-attention, while introducing fewer parameters than encoder fusion, showed less performance improvement compared to encoder fusion $(+0.6$ vs. $+0.8)$ . This finding suggests that fine-tuning performance is predominantly influenced by the model's parameters, indicating that scaling models is a promising direction for enhancing performance. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We have presented a Grounding DINO model in this paper. Grounding DINO extends DINO to open-set object detection, enabling it to detect arbitrary objects given texts as queries. We review open-set object detector designs and propose a tight fusion approach to better fusing cross-modality information. We propose a sub-sentence level representation to use detection data for text prompts in a more reasonable way. The results show the effectiveness of our model design and + +

Moreover, we extend open-set object detection to REC tasks and perform evaluation accordingly. We show that existing open-set detectors do not work well for REC data without fine-tuning. Hence we call extra attention to REC zero-shot performance in future studies. + +Limitations: Despite the great performance on open-set object detection settings, Grounding DINO cannot be used for segmentation tasks like GLIPv2. Our training data is less than the largest GLIP model, which may limit our final performance. Moreover, we find that our model will produce false positive results in some cases, which may need more techniques or data to reduce the hallucination. + +Social Impacts: The use of deep learning models, such as this one, exposes them to vulnerabilities through adversarial attacks. Additionally, the accuracy and correctness of the model's outputs cannot be guaranteed. There is also the risk that the open-set detection capabilities of the model could be exploited for unlawful purposes. + +# Acknowledgement + +We thank the authors of GLIP [24]: Lianian Harold Li, Pengchuan Zhang, and Haotian Zhang for their helpful discussions and instructions.

In this paper, we develop an open-set object detector, called Grounding DINO, by marrying Transformer-based detector DINO with grounded pre-training, which can detect arbitrary objects with human inputs such as category names or referring expressions.

The layer-by-layer design enables it to interact with language information easily. Under this principle, we design three feature fusion approaches in the neck, query initialization, and head phases. More specifically, we design a feature enhancer by stacking self-attention, text-to-image cross-attention, and image-to-text cross-attention as the neck module. We then develop a language-guided query selection method to initialize queries for the detection head. We also design a cross-modality decoder for the head phase with image and text cross-attention layers to boost query representations." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 334, + 482, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 334, + 482, + 441 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 334, + 482, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Large-scale grounded pre-train for zero-shot transfer.

Image Matching is a core component of all best-performing algorithms and pipelines in 3D vision. Yet despite matching being fundamentally a 3D problem, intrinsically linked to camera pose and scene geometry, it is typically treated as a 2D problem. This makes sense as the goal of matching is to establish correspondences between 2D pixel fields, but also seems like a potentially hazardous choice. In this work, we take a different stance and propose to cast matching as a 3D task with DUSt3R, a recent and powerful 3D reconstruction framework based on Transformers. Based on pointmaps regression, this method displayed impressive robustness in matching views with extreme viewpoint changes, yet with limited accuracy. We aim here to improve the matching capabilities of such an approach while preserving its robustness. We thus propose to augment the DUSt3R network with a new head that outputs dense local features, trained with an additional matching loss. We further address the issue of quadratic complexity of dense matching, which becomes prohibitively slow for downstream applications if not treated carefully. We introduce a fast reciprocal matching scheme that not only accelerates matching by orders of magnitude, but also comes with theoretical guarantees and, lastly, yields improved results.

State-of-the-art methods for visual localization, for instance, overwhelmingly rely upon image matching during the offline mapping stage, e.g. using COLMAP [81], as well as during the online localization step, typically using PnP [31]. In this paper, we focus on this core task and aim at producing, given two images, a list of pairwise correspondences, denoted as matches. In particular, we seek to output highly accurate and dense matches that are robust to viewpoint and illumination changes because these are, in the end, the limiting factor for real-world applications [38].", + "bbox": [ + 79, + 713, + 917, + 947 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "In the past, matching methods have traditionally been cast into a three-steps pipeline consisting of first extracting sparse and repeatable keypoints, then describing them with locally invariant features, and finally pairing the discrete set of keypoints by comparing their distance in the feature space.

One way to remedy this is to introduce a global optimization strategy during the pairing step, typically leveraging some learned priors about matching, which SuperGlue and similar methods successfully implemented [53, 78]. However, leveraging global context during matching might be too late, if keypoints and their descriptors do not already encode enough information. For this reason, another direction is to consider dense holistic matching, i.e. avoiding keypoints altogether, and matching the entire image at once. This recently became possible with the advent of mechanism for global attention [100]. Such approaches, like LoFTR [87], thus consider images as a whole and the resulting set of correspondences is dense and more robust to repetitive patterns and low-texture areas [45, 72, 73, 87].

In reality, the formulation of the matching task is intrinsically and fundamentally a 3D problem: pixels that correspond are pixels that observe the same 3D point. Indeed, 2D pixel correspondences and a relative camera pose in 3D space are two sides of the same coin, as they are directly related by the epipolar matrix [38]. Another evidence is that the current top-performer on the Map-free benchmark is DUSt3R [106], a method initially designed for 3D reconstruction rather than matching, and for which matches are only a by-product of the 3D reconstruction.

Matching is carried out in three distinct stages: keypoint detection, locally invariant description and nearest-neighbor search in descriptor space. Departing from the former handcrafted methods like SIFT [54,76], modern approaches have been shifting towards learning-based data-driven schemes for detecting keypoints [9,62,101,121], describing them [7,34,39,93] or both at the same time [11,21,55,56,74,102]. Overall, keypoint-based approaches are predominant in many benchmarks [7, 8,37,46,80], underscoring their enduring value in tasks requiring high precision and speed [19,80]. One notable issue, however, is they reduce matching to a local problem, i.e. discarding its holistic nature. SuperGlue and similar approaches [53,78] thus propose to perform global reasoning in the last pairing step leveraging stronger priors to guide matching, yet leaving the detection and description local. While successful, it is still limited by the local nature of keypoints and their inability to remain invariant to strong viewpoint changes. Dense matching. In contrast to keypoint-based approaches, semi-dense [12, 17,45,48,87,90] and dense approaches [28-30,60,97-99,126] offer a different paradigm for establishing image correspondences, considering all possible pixel associations. Very reminiscent of optical flow approaches [23,42,44,84,85,91], they are usually employing coarse-to-fine schemes to decrease computational complexity. Overall, these methods aim to consider matching from a global perspective, at the cost of increased computational resources. Dense matching has proven effective in scenarios where detailed spatial relationships and textures are critical for understanding scene geometry, leading to top performance on many benchmarks [4-6,61,78,87] that are especially challenging for keypoints due to extreme changes in viewpoint or illumination.

Image Matching is a core component of all best-performing algorithms and pipelines in 3D vision. Yet despite matching being fundamentally a 3D problem, intrinsically linked to camera pose and scene geometry, it is typically treated as a 2D problem. This makes sense as the goal of matching is to establish correspondences between 2D pixel fields, but also seems like a potentially hazardous choice. In this work, we take a different stance and propose to cast matching as a 3D task with DUSt3R, a recent and powerful 3D reconstruction framework based on Transformers. Based on pointmaps regression, this method displayed impressive robustness in matching views with extreme viewpoint changes, yet with limited accuracy. We aim here to improve the matching capabilities of such an approach while preserving its robustness. We thus propose to augment the DUSt3R network with a new head that outputs dense local features, trained with an additional matching loss. We further address the issue of quadratic complexity of dense matching, which becomes prohibitively slow for downstream applications if not treated carefully. We introduce a fast reciprocal matching scheme that not only accelerates matching by orders of magnitude, but also comes with theoretical guarantees and, lastly, yields improved results. Extensive experiments show that our approach, coined MAST3R, significantly outperforms the state of the art on multiple matching tasks. In particular, it largely outperforms the best published methods on the challenging Map-free localization dataset." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.083, + 0.67, + 0.309, + 0.691 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.081, + 0.715, + 0.919, + 0.949 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Being able to establish correspondences between pixels across different images of the same scene, denoted as image matching, constitutes a core component of all 3D vision applications, spanning mapping [15, 63], localization [43, 78], navigation [16], photogrammetry [35, 68] and autonomous robotics in general [67, 92]. State-of-the-art methods for visual localization, for instance, overwhelmingly rely upon image matching during the offline mapping stage, e.g. using COLMAP [81], as well as during the online localization step, typically using PnP [31]. In this paper, we focus on this core task and aim at producing, given two images, a list of pairwise correspondences, denoted as matches.

One way to remedy this is to introduce a global optimization strategy during the pairing step, typically leveraging some learned priors about matching, which SuperGlue and similar methods successfully implemented [53, 78]. However, leveraging global context during matching might be too late, if keypoints and their descriptors do not already encode enough information. For this reason, another direction is to consider dense holistic matching, i.e. avoiding keypoints altogether, and matching the entire image at once. This recently became possible with the advent of mechanism for global attention [100]. Such approaches, like LoFTR [87], thus consider images as a whole and the resulting set of correspondences is dense and more robust to repetitive patterns and low-texture areas [45, 72, 73, 87].

In reality, the formulation of the matching task is intrinsically and fundamentally a 3D problem: pixels that correspond are pixels that observe the same 3D point. Indeed, 2D pixel correspondences and a relative camera pose in 3D space are two sides of the same coin, as they are directly related by the epipolar matrix [38]. Another evidence is that the current top-performer on the Map-free benchmark is DUSt3R [106], a method initially designed for 3D reconstruction rather than matching, and for which matches are only a by-product of the 3D reconstruction.

Matching is carried out in three distinct stages: keypoint detection, locally invariant description and nearest-neighbor search in descriptor space. Departing from the former handcrafted methods like SIFT [54,76], modern approaches have been shifting towards learning-based data-driven schemes for detecting keypoints [9,62,101,121], describing them [7,34,39,93] or both at the same time [11,21,55,56,74,102]. Overall, keypoint-based approaches are predominant in many benchmarks [7, 8,37,46,80], underscoring their enduring value in tasks requiring high precision and speed [19,80]. One notable issue, however, is they reduce matching to a local problem, i.e. discarding its holistic nature. SuperGlue and similar approaches [53,78] thus propose to perform global reasoning in the last pairing step leveraging stronger priors to guide matching, yet leaving the detection and description local. While successful, it is still limited by the local nature of keypoints and their inability to remain invariant to strong viewpoint changes. Dense matching. In contrast to keypoint-based approaches, semi-dense [12, 17,45,48,87,90] and dense approaches [28-30,60,97-99,126] offer a different paradigm for establishing image correspondences, considering all possible pixel associations. Very reminiscent of optical flow approaches [23,42,44,84,85,91], they are usually employing coarse-to-fine schemes to decrease computational complexity. Overall, these methods aim to consider matching from a global perspective, at the cost of increased computational resources. Dense matching has proven effective in scenarios where detailed spatial relationships and textures are critical for understanding scene geometry, leading to top performance on many benchmarks [4-6,61,78,87] that are especially challenging for keypoints due to extreme changes in viewpoint or illumination.

Image Matching is a core component of all best-performing algorithms and pipelines in 3D vision. Yet despite matching being fundamentally a 3D problem, intrinsically linked to camera pose and scene geometry, it is typically treated as a 2D problem. This makes sense as the goal of matching is to establish correspondences between 2D pixel fields, but also seems like a potentially hazardous choice. In this work, we take a different stance and propose to cast matching as a 3D task with DUSt3R, a recent and powerful 3D reconstruction framework based on Transformers. Based on pointmaps regression, this method displayed impressive robustness in matching views with extreme viewpoint changes, yet with limited accuracy. We aim here to improve the matching capabilities of such an approach while preserving its robustness. We thus propose to augment the DUSt3R network with a new head that outputs dense local features, trained with an additional matching loss. We further address the issue of quadratic complexity of dense matching, which becomes prohibitively slow for downstream applications if not treated carefully. We introduce a fast reciprocal matching scheme that not only accelerates matching by orders of magnitude, but also comes with theoretical guarantees and, lastly, yields improved results. Extensive experiments show that our approach, coined MAST3R, significantly outperforms the state of the art on multiple matching tasks. In particular, it largely outperforms the best published methods on the challenging Map-free localization dataset. + +# 1 Introduction + +Being able to establish correspondences between pixels across different images of the same scene, denoted as image matching, constitutes a core component of all 3D vision applications, spanning mapping [15, 63], localization [43, 78], navigation [16], photogrammetry [35, 68] and autonomous robotics in general [67, 92]. State-of-the-art methods for visual localization, for instance, overwhelmingly rely upon image matching during the offline mapping stage, e.g. using COLMAP [81], as well as during the online localization step, typically using PnP [31]. In this paper, we focus on this core task and aim at producing, given two images, a list of pairwise correspondences, denoted as matches. In particular, we seek to output highly accurate and dense matches that are robust to viewpoint and illumination changes because these are, in the end, the limiting factor for real-world applications [38]. + +In the past, matching methods have traditionally been cast into a three-steps pipeline consisting of first extracting sparse and repeatable keypoints, then describing them with locally invariant features, and finally pairing the discrete set of keypoints by comparing their distance in the feature space. This pipeline has several merits: keypoint detectors are precise under low-to-moderate illumination and viewpoint changes, and the sparsity of keypoints makes the problem computationally tractable, enabling very precise matching in milliseconds whenever the images are viewed under similar conditions. This explains the success and persistence of SIFT [54] in 3D reconstruction pipelines like COLMAP [81]. + +Unfortunately, keypoint-based methods, by reducing matching to a bag-of-keypoint problem, discard the global geometric context of the correspondence task. This makes them especially prone to errors in situation with repetitive patterns or low-texture areas, which are in fact ill-posed for local descriptors. One way to remedy this is to introduce a global optimization strategy during the pairing step, typically leveraging some learned priors about matching, which SuperGlue and similar methods successfully implemented [53, 78]. However, leveraging global context during matching might be too late, if keypoints and their descriptors do not already encode enough information. For this reason, another direction is to consider dense holistic matching, i.e. avoiding keypoints altogether, and matching the entire image at once. This recently became possible with the advent of mechanism for global attention [100]. Such approaches, like LoFTR [87], thus consider images as a whole and the resulting set of correspondences is dense and more robust to repetitive patterns and low-texture areas [45, 72, 73, 87]. This led to new state-of-the-art results on the most challenging benchmarks, such as the Map-free localization benchmark [5]. + +Nevertheless, even a top-performing methods like LoFTR [87] score a relatively disappointing VCRE precision of $34\%$ on the Map-free localization benchmark. We argue that this is because, so far, practically all matching approaches have been treating matching as a 2D problem in image space. In reality, the formulation of the matching task is intrinsically and fundamentally a 3D problem: pixels that correspond are pixels that observe the same 3D point. Indeed, 2D pixel correspondences and a relative camera pose in 3D space are two sides of the same coin, as they are directly related by the epipolar matrix [38]. Another evidence is that the current top-performer on the Map-free benchmark is DUSt3R [106], a method initially designed for 3D reconstruction rather than matching, and for which matches are only a by-product of the 3D reconstruction. Yet, correspondences obtained naively from this 3D output currently outperform all other keypoint- and matching-based methods on the Map-free benchmark. + +In this paper, we point out that, while DUSt3R [106] can indeed be used for matching, it is relatively imprecise, despite being extremely robust to viewpoint changes. To remedy this flaw, we propose to attach a second head that regresses dense local feature maps, and train it with an InfoNCE loss. The resulting architecture, called MAST3R for "Matching And Stereo 3D Reconstruction" outperforms DUSt3R on multiple benchmarks. To get pixel-accurate matches, we propose a coarse-to-fine matching scheme during which matching is performed at + +several scales. Each matching step involves extracting reciprocal matches from dense feature maps which, perhaps counter-intuitively, is by far more time consuming than computing the dense feature maps themselves. Our proposed solution is a faster algorithm for finding reciprocal matches that is almost two orders of magnitude faster while improving the pose estimation quality. + +To summarize, we claim three main contributions. First, we propose MASt3R, a 3D-aware matching approach building on the recently released DUSt3R framework. It outputs local feature maps that enable highly accurate and extremely robust matching. Second, we propose a coarse-to-fine matching scheme associated with a fast matching algorithm, enabling to work with high-resolution images. Third, MASt3R significantly outperform the state-of-the-art on several absolute and relative pose localization benchmarks. + +# 2 Related works + +Keypoint-based matching has been a cornerstone of computer vision. Matching is carried out in three distinct stages: keypoint detection, locally invariant description and nearest-neighbor search in descriptor space. Departing from the former handcrafted methods like SIFT [54,76], modern approaches have been shifting towards learning-based data-driven schemes for detecting keypoints [9,62,101,121], describing them [7,34,39,93] or both at the same time [11,21,55,56,74,102]. Overall, keypoint-based approaches are predominant in many benchmarks [7, 8,37,46,80], underscoring their enduring value in tasks requiring high precision and speed [19,80]. One notable issue, however, is they reduce matching to a local problem, i.e. discarding its holistic nature. SuperGlue and similar approaches [53,78] thus propose to perform global reasoning in the last pairing step leveraging stronger priors to guide matching, yet leaving the detection and description local. While successful, it is still limited by the local nature of keypoints and their inability to remain invariant to strong viewpoint changes. Dense matching. In contrast to keypoint-based approaches, semi-dense [12, 17,45,48,87,90] and dense approaches [28-30,60,97-99,126] offer a different paradigm for establishing image correspondences, considering all possible pixel associations. Very reminiscent of optical flow approaches [23,42,44,84,85,91], they are usually employing coarse-to-fine schemes to decrease computational complexity. Overall, these methods aim to consider matching from a global perspective, at the cost of increased computational resources. Dense matching has proven effective in scenarios where detailed spatial relationships and textures are critical for understanding scene geometry, leading to top performance on many benchmarks [4-6,61,78,87] that are especially challenging for keypoints due to extreme changes in viewpoint or illumination. These approaches still cast matching as a 2D problem, which limits their usage for visual localization. + +Camera Pose estimation techniques vary widely, but the most successful strategies, for speed, accuracy and robustness trade-off, are fundamentally based on pixel matching [77, 81, 109]. The constant improvement of matching methods has fostered the introduction of more challenging camera pose estimation bench + +![](images/6fd3fa9c8f3ceede898af60a15b34b2485de4ef217a3ef829099152a553ba20d.jpg) +Fig. 1: Overview of the proposed approach. Given two input images to match, our network regresses for each image and each input pixel a 3D point, a confidence value and a local feature. Plugging either 3D points or local features into our fast reciprocal NN matcher (3.3) yields robust correspondences. Compared to the DUSt3R framework which we build upon, our contributions are highlighted in blue. + +marks, such as Aachen Day-Night, InLoc, CO3D or Map-free [5,71,89,123], all featuring strong viewpoint and/or illumination changes. The most challenging of them is undoubtedly Map-free [5], a localization dataset for which a single reference image is provided but no map, with viewpoint changes up to $180^{\circ}$ . + +Grounding matching in 3D thus becomes a crucial necessity in these challenging conditions where classical 2D-based matching utterly falls short. Leveraging priors about the physical properties of the scene in order to improve accuracy or robustness has been widely explored in the past, but most previous works settle for leveraging epipolar constraints for fully-supervised [22,36,64,103,114] or semi-supervised learning of correspondences without any fundamental change [10,40, 49,105,112,116,118,124]. Toft et al. [94], on its part, propose to improve keypoint descriptors by rectifying images with perspective transformations obtained from an off-the-shelf monocular depth predictor. Recently, diffusion for pose [104] or rays [119], although not matching approaches strictly speaking, show promising performance by incorporating 3D geometric constraints into their pose estimation formulation. Finally, the recent DUSt3R [106] explore the possibility of recovering correspondences from the $a$ -priori harder task of 3D reconstruction from uncalibrated images. Despite not being trained explicitly for matching, this approach yields promising results, topping the Map-free leaderboard [5]. Our contribution is to pursue this idea, by regressing local features and explicitly training them for pairwise matching. + +# 3 Method + +Given two images $I^1$ and $I^2$ , respectively captured by two cameras $C^1$ and $C^2$ with unknown parameters, we wish to recover a set of pixel correspondences $\{(i,j)\}$ where $i,j$ are pixels $i = (u_i,v_i), j = (u_j,v_j) \in \{1,\dots ,W\} \times \{1,\dots ,H\}$ , $W,H$ being the respective width and height of the images. We assume they have the same resolution for the sake of simplicity, yet without loss of generality. The final network can handle pairs of variable aspect ratios. + +Our approach, illustrated in Fig. 1, aims at jointly performing 3D scene reconstruction and matching given two input images. It is based on the DUSt3R framework recently proposed by Wang et al. [106], which we first review in + +Sec. 3.1 before presenting our proposed matching head and its corresponding loss in Sec. 3.2. We then introduce an optimized matching scheme specially devised to deal with dense feature maps in 3.3, that we use for coarse-to-fine matching in Sec. 3.4. + +# 3.1 The DUSt3R framework + +DUSt3R [106] is a recently proposed approach that jointly solves the calibration and 3D reconstruction problems from images alone. A transformer-based network predicts a local 3D reconstruction given two input images, in the form of two dense 3D point-clouds $X^{1,1}$ and $X^{2,1}$ , denoted as pointmaps in the following. A pointmap $X^{a,b} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 3}$ represents a dense 2D-to-3D mapping between each pixel $i = (u,v)$ of the image $I^a$ and its corresponding 3D point $X_{u,v}^{a,b} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ expressed in the coordinate system of camera $C^b$ . By regressing two pointmaps $X^{1,1}, X^{2,1}$ expressed in the same coordinate system of camera $C^1$ , DUSt3R effectively solves the joint calibration and 3D reconstruction problem. In the case where more than two images are provided, a second step of global alignment merges all pointmaps in the same coordinate system. Note that, in this paper, we do not make use of this step and restrict ourselves to the binocular case. We now explain the inference in more details. + +Both images are first encoded in a Siamese manner with a ViT encoder [24], yielding two representations $H^{1}$ and $H^{2}$ , with $H^{i} = \mathrm{Encoder}(I^{i})$ . Then, two intertwined decoders process these representations jointly, exchanging information via cross-attention to 'understand' the spatial relationship between viewpoints and the global 3D geometry of the scene. The new representations augmented with this spatial information are denoted as $H^{\prime 1}, H^{\prime 2} = \mathrm{Decoder}(H^{1}, H^{2})$ . Finally, two prediction heads regress the final pointmaps and confidence maps from the concatenated representations output by the encoder and decoder: + +$$ +X ^ {1, 1}, C ^ {1} = \operatorname {H e a d} _ {\mathrm {3 D}} ^ {1} \left(\left[ H ^ {1}, H ^ {\prime 1} \right]\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +X ^ {2, 1}, C ^ {2} = \operatorname {H e a d} _ {\mathrm {3 D}} ^ {2} ([ H ^ {2}, H ^ {\prime 2} ]). \tag {2} +$$ + +Regression loss. DUSt3R is trained in a fully-supervised manner using a simple regression loss + +$$ +\ell_ {\text {r e g r}} (v, i) = \left\| \frac {1}{z} X _ {i} ^ {v, 1} - \frac {1}{\hat {z}} \hat {X} _ {i} ^ {v, 1} \right\|, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $v \in \{1,2\}$ is the view and $i$ is a pixel for which the ground-truth 3D point $\hat{X}^{v,1} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ is defined. In the original formulation, normalizing factors $z, \hat{z}$ are introduced to make the reconstruction invariant to scale. These are simply defined as the mean distance of all valid 3D points to the origin. + +Metric predictions. In this work, we note that scale invariance is not necessarily desirable, as some potential use-cases like map-free visual localization necessitate metric-scale predictions. Therefore, we modify the regression loss to ignore normalization for the predicted pointmaps when the ground-truth pointmaps are known to be metric. That is, we set $z \coloneqq \hat{z}$ whenever ground-truth is metric, + +so that $\ell_{\mathrm{regr}}(v,i) = ||X_i^{v,1} - \hat{X}_i^{v,1}|| / \hat{z}$ in this case. As in DUSt3R [106], the final confidence-aware regression loss is defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {c o n f}} = \sum_ {v \in \{1, 2 \}} \sum_ {i \in \mathcal {V} ^ {v}} C _ {i} ^ {v} \ell_ {\text {r e g r}} (v, i) - \alpha \log C _ {i} ^ {v}. \tag {4} +$$ + +# 3.2 Matching prediction head and loss + +To obtain reliable pixel correspondences from pointmaps, a standard solution is to look for reciprocal matches in some invariant feature space [27, 83, 106, 110]. While such a scheme works remarkably well with DUSt3R's regressed pointmaps (i.e. in a 3-dimensional space) even in presence of extreme viewpoint changes, we note that the resulting correspondences are rather imprecise, yielding suboptimal accuracy. This is a rather natural result as (i) regression is inherently affected by noise, and (ii) because DUSt3R was never explicitly trained for matching. + +Matching head. For these reasons, we propose to add a second head that outputs two dense feature maps $D^{1}$ and $D^{2} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times d}$ of dimensional $d$ : + +$$ +D ^ {1} = \operatorname {H e a d} _ {\text {d e s c}} ^ {1} \left(\left[ H ^ {1}, H ^ {\prime 1} \right]\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +D ^ {2} = \operatorname {H e a d} _ {\text {d e s c}} ^ {2} \left(\left[ H ^ {2}, H ^ {\prime 2} \right]\right). \tag {6} +$$ + +We implement the head as a simple 2-layers MLP interleaved with a non-linear GELU activation function [41]. Lastly, we normalize each local feature to unit norm. More details can be found in the supplementary material. + +Matching objective. We wish to encourage each local descriptor from one image to match with at most a single descriptor from the other image that represents the same 3D point in the scene. To that aim, we leverage the infoNCE [65] loss over the set of ground-truth correspondences $\hat{\mathcal{M}} = \{(i,j)|\hat{X}_i^{1,1} = \hat{X}_j^{2,1}\}$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a t c h}} = - \sum_ {(i, j) \in \hat {\mathcal {M}}} \log \frac {s _ {\tau} (i , j)}{\sum_ {k \in \mathcal {P} ^ {1}} s _ {\tau} (k , j)} + \log \frac {s _ {\tau} (i , j)}{\sum_ {k \in \mathcal {P} ^ {2}} s _ {\tau} (i , k)}, \tag {7} +$$ + +$$ +\text {w i t h} s _ {\tau} (i, j) = \exp \left[ - \tau D _ {i} ^ {1 \top} D _ {j} ^ {2} \right]. \tag {8} +$$ + +Here, $\mathcal{P}^1 = \{i|(i,j)\in \hat{\mathcal{M}}\}$ and $\mathcal{P}^2 = \{j|(i,j)\in \hat{\mathcal{M}}\}$ denote the subset of considered pixels in each image and $\tau$ is a temperature hyper-parameter. Note that this matching objective is essentially a cross-entropy classification loss: contrary to regression in Eq. (3), the network is only rewarded if it gets the correct pixel right, not a nearby pixel. This strongly encourages the network to achieve high-precision matching. Finally, both regression and matching losses are combined to get the final training objective: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c o n f}} + \beta \mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a t c h}} \tag {9} +$$ + +# 3.3 Fast reciprocal matching + +Given two predicted feature maps $D^{1}, D^{2} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times d}$ , we aim to extract a set of reliable pixel correspondences, i.e. mutual nearest neighbors of each others: + +$$ +\mathcal {M} = \{(i, j) \mid j = \mathrm {N N} _ {2} \left(D _ {i} ^ {1}\right) \text {a n d} i = \mathrm {N N} _ {1} \left(D _ {j} ^ {2}\right) \}, \tag {10} +$$ + +$$ +\text {w i t h} \mathrm {N N} _ {A} \left(D _ {j} ^ {B}\right) = \underset {i} {\arg \min } \left\| D _ {i} ^ {A} - D _ {j} ^ {B} \right\|. \tag {11} +$$ + +Unfortunately, naive implementation of reciprocal matching has a high computational complexity of $O(W^{2}H^{2})$ , since every pixel from an image must be compared to every pixels in the other image. While optimizing the nearest-neighbor (NN) search is possible, e.g. using K-d trees [1], this kind of optimization becomes typically very inefficient in high dimensional feature space and, in all cases, orders of magnitude slower than the inference time of MAST3R to output $D^{1}$ and $D^{2}$ . + +Fast matching. We therefore propose a faster approach based on sub-sampling. It is based on an iterated process that starts from an initial sparse set of $k$ pixels $U^0 = \{U_n^0\}_{n=1}^k$ , typically sampled regularly on a grid in the first image $I^1$ . Each pixel is then mapped to its NN on $I^2$ , yielding $V^1$ , and the resulting pixels are mapped back again to $I^1$ in the same way: + +$$ +U ^ {t} \longmapsto [ \mathrm {N N} _ {2} \left(D _ {u} ^ {1}\right) ] _ {u \in U ^ {t}} \equiv V ^ {t} \longmapsto [ \mathrm {N N} _ {1} \left(D _ {v} ^ {2}\right) ] _ {v \in V ^ {t}} \equiv U ^ {t + 1} \tag {12} +$$ + +The set of reciprocal matches (those which form a cycle, i.e. $\mathcal{M}_k^t = \{(U_n^t,V_n^t)\mid$ $U_{n}^{t} = U_{n}^{t + 1}\}$ ) are then collected. For the next iteration, pixels that already converged are filtered out, i.e. updating $U^{t + 1}\coloneqq U^{t + 1}\setminus U^t$ . Likewise, starting from $t = 1$ we also verify and filter $V^{t + 1}$ , comparing it with $V^t$ in a similar fashion. As illustrated in Fig. 2 (left), this process is then iterated a fixed number of times, until most correspondences converge to stable (reciprocal) pairs. In Fig. 2 (center), we show that the number of un-converged point $|U^t|$ rapidly decreases to zero after a few iterations. Finally, the output set of correspondences consists of the concatenation of all reciprocal pairs $\mathcal{M}_k = \bigcup_t\mathcal{M}_k^t$ . + +Theoretical guarantees. The overall complexity of the fast matching is $O(kWH)$ , which is $WH / k \gg 1$ times faster than the naive approach denoted all, as illustrated in Fig. 2 (right). It is worth pointing out that our fast matching algorithm extracts a subset of the full set $\mathcal{M}$ , which is bounded in size by $|\mathcal{M}_k| \leq k$ . We study in the supplementary material the convergence guarantees of this algorithm and how it evinces outlier-filtering properties, which explains why the end accuracy is actually higher than when using the full correspondence set $\mathcal{M}$ , see Fig. 2 (right). + +# 3.4 Coarse-to-fine matching + +Due to the quadratic complexity of attention w.r.t. the input image area $(W\times H)$ , MASt3R only handles images of 512 pixels in their largest dimension.

Searching for cycles (blue arrows) detect reciprocal correspondences and allows to accelerate the subsequent steps, by removing points that converged. Center: Average number of remaining points in $U^t$ at iteration $t = 1 \ldots 6$ . After only 5 iterations, nearly all points have already converged to a reciprocal match. Right: Performance-versus-time trade-off on the Map-free dataset.

As a result, high-resolution images (e.g. 1M pixel) needs to be downscaled to be matched, afterwards the resulting correspondences are upscaled back to the original image resolution. This can lead to some performance loss, sometimes sufficient to cause substantial degradation in term of localization accuracy or reconstruction quality. + +Coarse-to-fine matching is a standard technique to preserve the benefit of matching high-resolution images with a lower-resolution algorithm [70, 91]. We thus explore this idea for MASt3R. Our procedure starts with performing matching on downscaled versions of the two images. We denote the set of coarse correspondences obtained with subsampling $k$ as $\mathcal{M}_k^0$ . Next, we generate a grid of overlapping window crops $W^1$ and $W^2 \in \mathbb{R}^{w \times 4}$ on each full-resolution image independently. Each window crop measures 512 pixels in its largest dimension and contiguous windows overlap by $50\%$ . We can then enumerate the set of all window pairs $(w_1, w_2) \in W^1 \times W^2$ , from which we select a subset covering most of the coarse correspondences $\mathcal{M}_k^0$ . Specifically, we add window pairs one by one in a greedy fashion until $90\%$ of correspondences are covered. Finally, we perform matching for each window pair independently: + +$$ +D ^ {w _ {1}}, D ^ {w _ {2}} = \operatorname {M A S t 3 R} \left(I _ {w _ {1}} ^ {1}, I _ {w _ {2}} ^ {2}\right) \tag {13} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {M} _ {k} ^ {w _ {1}, w _ {2}} = \text {f a s t} \_ \text {r e c i p r o c a l} \_ \mathrm {N N} \left(D ^ {w _ {1}}, D ^ {w _ {2}}\right) \tag {14} +$$ + +Correspondences obtained from each window pair are finally mapped back to the original image coordinates and concatenated, thus providing dense full-resolution matches. + +# 4 Experimental results + +We detail in Sec. 4.1 the training procedure of MASt3R. Then, we evaluate on several tasks, each time comparing with the state of the art, starting with visual camera pose estimation on the Map-Free Relocalization Benchmark [5] + +(Sec. 4.2), the CO3D and RealEstate datasets (Sec. 4.3) and other standard Visual Localization benchmarks in Sec. 4.4. Finally, we leverage MASTR for Dense Multi-View Stereo (MVS) reconstruction in Sec. 4.5. + +# 4.1 Training + +Training data. We train our network with a mixture of 14 datasets: Habitat [79], ARKitScenes [20], Blended MVS [115], MegaDepth [50], Static Scenes 3D [59], ScanNet++ [117], CO3D-v2 [71], Waymo [88], Map-free [5], WildRGB [2], VirtualKitti [13], Unreal4K [96], TartanAir [107] and an internal dataset. These datasets feature diverse scene types: indoor, outdoor, synthetic, real-world, object-centric, etc. Among them, 10 datasets have metric ground-truth. When image pairs are not directly provided with the dataset, we extract them based on the method described in [108]. Specifically, we utilize off-the-shelf image retrieval and point matching algorithms to match and verify image pairs. + +Training. We base our model architecture on the public DUSt3R model [106] and use the same backbone (ViT-Large encoder and ViT-Base decoder). To benefit the most from DUSt3R's 3D matching abilities, we initialize the model weights to the publicly available DUSt3R checkpoint. During each epoch, we randomly sample $650k$ pairs equally distributed between all datasets. We train our network for 35 epochs with a cosine schedule and initial learning rate set to 0.0001. Similar to [106], we randomize the image aspect ratio at training time, ensuring that the largest image dimension is 512 pixels. We set the local feature dimension to $d = 24$ and the matching loss weight to $\beta = 1$ . It is important that the network sees different scales at training time, because coarse-to-fine matching starts from zoomed-out images to then zoom-in on details (see Sec. 3.4). We therefore perform aggressive data augmentation during training in the form of random cropping. Image crops are transformed with a homography to preserve the central position of the principal point. + +Correspondence sampling. To generate ground-truth correspondences necessary for the matching loss (Eq. (7)), we simply find reciprocal correspondences between on the ground-truth 3D pointmaps $\hat{X}^{1,1}\leftrightarrow \hat{X}^{2,1}$ . We then randomly subsample 4096 correspondences per image pairs. If we cannot find enough correspondences, we pad with random false correspondences so that the likelihood of finding a true match remains constant. + +Fast nearest neighbors. For the fast reciprocal matching from Sec. 3.3, we implement the nearest neighbor function $\mathrm{NN}(x)$ from Eq. (11) differently depending on the dimension of $x$ . When matching 3D points $x \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , we implement $\mathrm{NN}(x)$ using K-d trees [58]. For matching local features with $d = 24$ , however, K-d trees become highly inefficient due to the curse of dimensionality [26]. Therefore, we rely on the optimized FAISS library [25,47] in this case. + +# 4.2 Map-free localization + +Dataset description. We start our experiments with the Map-free relocalization benchmark [5], an extremely challenging dataset aiming at localizing the camera + +in metric space given a single reference image without any map. It comprises a training, validation and test sets of 460, 65 and 130 scenes resp., each featuring two video sequences. Following the benchmark, we evaluate in term of Virtual Correspondence Reprojection Error (VCRE) and camera pose accuracy, see [5] for details. + +Impact of subsampling. We do not resort to coarse-to-fine matching for this dataset, as the image resolution is already close to MASt3R working resolution $(720 \times 540$ vs. $512 \times 384$ resp.). As mentioned in Sec. 3.3, computing dense reciprocal matching is prohibitively slow even with optimized code for searching nearest neighbors. We therefore resort to subsampling the set of reciprocal correspondences, keeping at most $k$ correspondences from the complete set $\mathcal{M}$ (Eq. (10)). Fig. 2 (right) shows the impact of subsampling in terms of AUC (VCRE) performance and timing. Surprisingly, the performance significantly improves for intermediate values of subsampling. Using $k = 3000$ , we can accelerate matching by a factor of 64 while significantly improving the performance. We provide insights in the supplementary material regarding this phenomenon. Unless stated otherwise, we keep $k = 3000$ for subsequent experiments. + +Ablations on losses and matching modes. We report results on the validation set in Tab. 1 for different variants of our approach: DUSt3R matching 3D points (I); MAST3R also matching 3D points (II) or local features (III, IV, V). For all methods, we compute the relative pose from the essential matrix [38] estimated with the set of predicted matches (PnP performs similarly). The metric scene scale is inferred from the depth extracted with an off-the-shelf DPT finetuned on KITTI [69] (I-IV) or from the depth directly output by MAST3R (V). + +First, we note that all proposed methods significantly outperforms the DUSt3R baseline, probably because MASt3R is trained longer and with more data. All other things being equal, matching descriptors perform significantly better than matching 3D points (II versus IV). This confirms our initial analysis that regression is inherently unsuited to compute pixel correspondences, see Sec. 3.2. + +We also study the impact of training only with a single matching objective $(\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{match}}$ from Eq. (7), III). In this case, the performance overall degrades compared to training with both 3D and matching losses (IV), in particular in term of pose estimation accuracy (e.g. median rotation of $10.8^{\circ}$ for (III) compared to $3.0^{\circ}$ for (IV)). We point out that this is in spite of the decoder now having more capacity to carry out a single task, instead of two when performing 3D reconstruction simultaneously, indicating that grounding matching in 3D is indeed crucial to improve matching. Lastly, we observe that, when using metric depth directly output by MASt3R, the performance largely improves. This suggests that, as for matching, the depth prediction task is largely correlated with 3D scene understanding, and that the two tasks strongly benefit from each other. + +Comparisons on the test set is reported in Tab. 2. Overall, MASt3R outperforms all state-of-the-art approaches by a large margin, achieving more than $93\%$ in VCRE AUC. This is a $30\%$ absolute improvement compared to the second best published method, LoFTR+KBR [86, 87], that get $63.4\%$ in AUC. Likewise, the median translation error is vastly reduced to $36\mathrm{cm}$ , compared to approx. $2\mathrm{m}$ for + +Table 1: Results on the validation set of the Map-free dataset.

+ +the state-of-the-art methods. A large part of the improvement is of course due to MAST3R predicting metric depth, but note that our variant leveraging depth from DPT-KITTI (thus purely matching-based) outperforms all state-of-the-art approaches as well. + +We also provide the results of direct regression with MASt3R, i.e. without matching, simply using PnP on the pointmap $X^{2,1}$ of the second image. These results are surprisingly on par with our matching-based variant, even though the ground-truth calibration of the reference camera is not used. As we show below, this does not hold true for other localization datasets, and computing the pose via matching (e.g. with PnP or essential matrix) with known intrinsics seems safer in general. + +Qualitative results. We show in Fig. 3 some matching results for pairs with strong viewpoint change (up to $180^{\circ}$ ). We also highlight with insets some specific regions that are correctly matched by MAST3R in spite of drastic appearance changes. We believe these correspondences to be nearly impossible to get with 2D-based matching methods. In contrast, grounding the matching in 3D allows to solve the issue relatively straightforwardly. + +# 4.3 Relative pose estimation + +Datasets and protocol. Next, we evaluate for the task of relative pose estimation on the CO3Dv2 [71] and RealEstate10k [125] datasets. CO3Dv2 contains 6 million frames extracted from approximately 37k videos, covering 51 MS-COCO + +![](images/c451830a7b98f23fe37e01bd17ca3e08bfbea1e821e012a0d9832d7cc4d3f3dd.jpg) +Fig. 3: Qualitative examples on the Map-free dataset.

RealEstate10k is an indoor/outdoor dataset that features 80K video clips on YouTube totalling 10 million frames, camera poses being obtained via SLAM with bundle adjustment. Following [104], we evaluate MASt3R on 41 categories from CO3Dv2 and 1.8K video clips from the test set of RealEstate10k. Each sequence is 10 frames long, we evaluate relative camera poses between all possible 45 pairs, not using ground-truth focals. + +Baselines and metrics. As before, matches obtained with MASt3R are used to estimate Essential Matrices and relative pose. Please note that our predictions are always done pairwise, contrary to all other methods that leverage multiple views (at the exception of DUSt3R-PnP). We compare to recent data-driven approaches like RelPose [120], RelPose++ [120], PoseReg and PoseDiff [104], the recent RayDiff [119] and DUSt3R [106]. We also report results for more traditional SfM methods like PixSFM [52] and COLMAP [82] extended with SuperPoint [21] and SuperGlue [78] (COLMAP+SPSG). Similar to [104], we report the Relative Rotation Accuracy (RRA) and Relative Translation Accuracy (RTA) for each image pair to evaluate the relative pose error and select a threshold $\tau = 15$ to report RTA@15 and RRA@15. Additionally, we calculate the mean Average Accuracy (mAA30), defined as the area under the accuracy curve of the angular differences at min(RRA@30, RTA@30). + +Results. As shown in Tab. 3, SfM approaches tend to perform significantly worse on this task, mainly due to the poor visual support. This because images usually observe a small object, combined with the fact that many pairs have a wide baseline, sometimes up to $180^{\circ}$ . On the contrary, 3D grounded approaches like RayDiffusion, DUSt3R and MASt3R are the two most competitive methods + +

We then evaluate MAST3R for the task of absolute pose estimation on the Aachen Day-Night [123] and InLoc [89] datasets. Aachen comprises 4,328 reference images taken with hand-held cameras, as well as 824 daytime and 98 nighttime query images taken with mobile phones in the old inner city of Aachen, Germany. InLoc [89] is an indoor dataset with challenging appearance variation between the 9,972 RGB-D + 6DOF pose database images and the 329 query images taken from an iPhone 7. + +Metrics. We report the percentage of successfully localized images within three thresholds: $(0.25\mathrm{m}, 2^{\circ})$ , $(0.5\mathrm{m}, 5^{\circ})$ and $(5\mathrm{m}, 10^{\circ})$ for Aachen and $(0.25\mathrm{m}, 10^{\circ})$ , $(0.5\mathrm{m}, 10^{\circ})$ , $(1\mathrm{m}, 10^{\circ})$ for InLoc. + +Results are reported in Table 4. We study the performance of MAST3R with variable number of retrieved images. As expected, a greater number of retrieved images (top40) yields better performance, achieving competitive performance on Aachen and significantly outperforming the state of the art on InLoc. Interestingly, our approach still performs very well even with a single retrieved image (top1), showcasing the robustness of 3D grounded matching. We also include direct regression results, which are rather poor, showing a striking impact of the dataset scale on the localization error, i.e. small scenes are much less affected (see results on Map-free in 4.2). This confirms the importance of feature matching to estimate reliable poses. + +Table 4: Visual localization results on Aachen Day-Night and InLoc.

Note that the matching is performed in full resolution without prior knowledge of cameras, and the latter are only used to triangulate matches to 3D in ground-truth reference frame. To remove spurious 3D points, we simply apply geometric consistency post-processing [103]. + +Datasets and metrics. We evaluate our predictions on the DTU [3] dataset. Contrary to all competing learning methods, we apply our network in a zero-shot setting, i.e. we do not train nor finetune on the DTU train set and apply our model as is. In Tab. 3 we report the average accuracy, completeness and Chamfer distances error metrics as provided by the authors of the benchmarks. The accuracy for a point of the reconstructed shape is defined as the smallest Euclidean distance to the ground-truth, and the completeness of a point of the ground-truth as the smallest Euclidean distance to the reconstructed shape. The overall Chamfer distance is the average of both previous metrics. + +Results. Data-driven approaches trained on this domain significantly outperform handcrafted ones, cutting the Chamfer error by half. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to draw such conclusion in a zero-shot setting. MAST3R not only outperforms the DUSt3R baseline but also compete with the best methods, all without leveraging camera calibration nor poses for matching, neither having seen this camera setup before. + +# 5 Conclusion + +Grounding image matching in 3D with MASt3R significantly raised the bar on camera pose and localization tasks on many public benchmarks. We successfully improved DUSt3R with matching, getting the best of both worlds: enhanced robustness, while attaining and even surpassing what could be done with pixel matching alone. We introduced a fast reciprocal matcher and a coarse to fine approach for efficient processing, allowing users to balance between accuracy and speed. MASt3R is able to perform in few-view regimes (even in top1), that we believe will greatly increase versatility of localization. + +# References + +1. Scipy. https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy +2.

Image Matching is a core component of all best-performing algorithms and pipelines in 3D vision. Yet despite matching being fundamentally a 3D problem, intrinsically linked to camera pose and scene geometry, it is typically treated as a 2D problem. This makes sense as the goal of matching is to establish correspondences between 2D pixel fields, but also seems like a potentially hazardous choice. In this work, we take a different stance and propose to cast matching as a 3D task with DUSt3R, a recent and powerful 3D reconstruction framework based on Transformers. Based on pointmaps regression, this method displayed impressive robustness in matching views with extreme viewpoint changes, yet with limited accuracy. We aim here to improve the matching capabilities of such an approach while preserving its robustness. We thus propose to augment the DUSt3R network with a new head that outputs dense local features, trained with an additional matching loss. We further address the issue of quadratic complexity of dense matching, which becomes prohibitively slow for downstream applications if not treated carefully. We introduce a fast reciprocal matching scheme that not only accelerates matching by orders of magnitude, but also comes with theoretical guarantees and, lastly, yields improved results. Extensive experiments show that our approach, coined MAST3R, significantly outperforms the state of the art on multiple matching tasks. In particular, it largely outperforms the best published methods on the challenging Map-free localization dataset." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 34, + 412, + 127, + 424 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 34, + 412, + 127, + 424 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 34, + 412, + 127, + 424 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 439, + 379, + 583 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 439, + 379, + 583 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 439, + 379, + 583 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Being able to establish correspondences between pixels across different images of the same scene, denoted as image matching, constitutes a core component of all 3D vision applications, spanning mapping [15, 63], localization [43, 78], navigation [16], photogrammetry [35, 68] and autonomous robotics in general [67, 92]. State-of-the-art methods for visual localization, for instance, overwhelmingly rely upon image matching during the offline mapping stage, e.g. using COLMAP [81], as well as during the online localization step, typically using PnP [31]. In this paper, we focus on this core task and aim at producing, given two images, a list of pairwise correspondences, denoted as matches. In particular, we seek to output highly accurate and dense matches that are robust to viewpoint and illumination changes because these are, in the end, the limiting factor for real-world applications [38]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [], + "page_size": [ + 413, + 615 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 32, + 35, + 379, + 142 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 32, + 35, + 379, + 142 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 32, + 35, + 379, + 142 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In the past, matching methods have traditionally been cast into a three-steps pipeline consisting of first extracting sparse and repeatable keypoints, then describing them with locally invariant features, and finally pairing the discrete set of keypoints by comparing their distance in the feature space. This pipeline has several merits: keypoint detectors are precise under low-to-moderate illumination and viewpoint changes, and the sparsity of keypoints makes the problem computationally tractable, enabling very precise matching in milliseconds whenever the images are viewed under similar conditions.

This makes them especially prone to errors in situation with repetitive patterns or low-texture areas, which are in fact ill-posed for local descriptors. One way to remedy this is to introduce a global optimization strategy during the pairing step, typically leveraging some learned priors about matching, which SuperGlue and similar methods successfully implemented [53, 78]. However, leveraging global context during matching might be too late, if keypoints and their descriptors do not already encode enough information. For this reason, another direction is to consider dense holistic matching, i.e. avoiding keypoints altogether, and matching the entire image at once. This recently became possible with the advent of mechanism for global attention [100]. Such approaches, like LoFTR [87], thus consider images as a whole and the resulting set of correspondences is dense and more robust to repetitive patterns and low-texture areas [45, 72, 73, 87].

We argue that this is because, so far, practically all matching approaches have been treating matching as a 2D problem in image space. In reality, the formulation of the matching task is intrinsically and fundamentally a 3D problem: pixels that correspond are pixels that observe the same 3D point. Indeed, 2D pixel correspondences and a relative camera pose in 3D space are two sides of the same coin, as they are directly related by the epipolar matrix [38]. Another evidence is that the current top-performer on the Map-free benchmark is DUSt3R [106], a method initially designed for 3D reconstruction rather than matching, and for which matches are only a by-product of the 3D reconstruction. Yet, correspondences obtained naively from this 3D output currently outperform all other keypoint- and matching-based methods on the Map-free benchmark." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 499, + 379, + 583 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 499, + 379, + 583 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 499, + 379, + 583 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In this paper, we point out that, while DUSt3R [106] can indeed be used for matching, it is relatively imprecise, despite being extremely robust to viewpoint changes.

Departing from the former handcrafted methods like SIFT [54,76], modern approaches have been shifting towards learning-based data-driven schemes for detecting keypoints [9,62,101,121], describing them [7,34,39,93] or both at the same time [11,21,55,56,74,102]. Overall, keypoint-based approaches are predominant in many benchmarks [7, 8,37,46,80], underscoring their enduring value in tasks requiring high precision and speed [19,80]. One notable issue, however, is they reduce matching to a local problem, i.e. discarding its holistic nature. SuperGlue and similar approaches [53,78] thus propose to perform global reasoning in the last pairing step leveraging stronger priors to guide matching, yet leaving the detection and description local. While successful, it is still limited by the local nature of keypoints and their inability to remain invariant to strong viewpoint changes. Dense matching. In contrast to keypoint-based approaches, semi-dense [12, 17,45,48,87,90] and dense approaches [28-30,60,97-99,126] offer a different paradigm for establishing image correspondences, considering all possible pixel associations. Very reminiscent of optical flow approaches [23,42,44,84,85,91], they are usually employing coarse-to-fine schemes to decrease computational complexity. Overall, these methods aim to consider matching from a global perspective, at the cost of increased computational resources. Dense matching has proven effective in scenarios where detailed spatial relationships and textures are critical for understanding scene geometry, leading to top performance on many benchmarks [4-6,61,78,87] that are especially challenging for keypoints due to extreme changes in viewpoint or illumination.

Unlike other RAG systems that directly use retrieved items as context [57, 75] or infuse them into the model's intermediate hidden states [17, 24, 39], AutoVER dynamically constructs a prefix tree (trie) from the retrieved entity identifiers, and then generates entity identifiers by leveraging a methodology that constrains the next possible tokens and eliminates invalid options based on the trie, thus ensuring the generated text can always be grounded in retrieved candidates.

We introduce AutoVER, an Autoregressive model for Visual Entity Recognition. Our model extends an autoregressive Multi-modal Large Language Model by employing retrieval augmented constrained generation. It mitigates low performance on out-of-domain entities while excelling in queries that require visual reasoning.

We leave more specialized efficient tuning methods for the generative VER framework as future work." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.659, + 0.787, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Autoregressive Model or Classifier. One may attribute the success of AutoVER to the large model size of its underlying MLLM and accompanied expressive capacity instead of our proposed design. In response to that, we devise a [CLS] variant of AutoVER. It follows the classical design of treating a decoder-only LM as a classifier. Specifically, we introduce a new [CLS] token into the MLLM vocabulary and append this token at the end of each query image-question pair. The corresponding last-layer hidden states are then finetuned for classifying the query into the 20,549 existing entities in OVEN-Wiki. We observed a significant performance degradation in this setting, particularly in the UNSEEN subset. This highlights the ineffectiveness of classifier-based VQA methods in the realm of visual entity recognition, indicating that our model performance stems from more than just its size." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.116, + 0.236, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "14" + }, + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.272, + 0.115, + 0.362, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Z.

We introduce AutoVER, an Autoregressive model for Visual Entity Recognition. Our model extends an autoregressive Multi-modal Large Language Model by employing retrieval augmented constrained generation. It mitigates low performance on out-of-domain entities while excelling in queries that require visual reasoning. Our method learns to distinguish similar entities within a vast label space by contrastively training on hard negative pairs in parallel with a sequence-to-sequence objective without an external retriever. During inference, a list of retrieved candidate answers explicitly guides language generation by removing invalid decoding paths. The proposed method achieves significant improvements across different dataset splits in the recently proposed OVEN-Wiki benchmark with accuracy on the ENTITY SEEN split rising from $32.7\%$ to $61.5\%$ . It demonstrates superior performance on the UNSEEN and QUERY splits by a substantial double-digit margin, while also preserving the ability to effectively transfer to other generic visual question answering benchmarks without further training. + +Keywords: Language Model $\cdot$ Visual Entity Recognition + +# 1 Introduction + +Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated superior performance on a variety of vision-and-language tasks such as visual question answering, image captioning, zero-shot image classification, among others [40, 55]. Their abilities can be transferred with few-shot tuning [2, 69] or even learning in context without parameter updates [5, 73]. Given their remarkable generalization abilities and prior knowledge based on large-scale pre-training, we consider there is still great potential for using them on tasks that require knowledge grounding. + +A recently proposed task requiring knowledge grounding is the Open-domain Visual Entity Recognition (OVEN-Wiki) [28] task. In this task, given an input image and a question about the image, the goal is to answer with a very specific entity from Wikipedia. For instance, the answers could be a specific model of airplane, e.g. ATR 42, or BRITISH AEROSPACE 146. This is a very challenging + +![](images/d9d0a4a631eb04634c7263bbd0f1438c85d9f554d8a6c2e1f3a0431969ba8005.jpg) +Fig. 1: A representative query-entity pair from OVEN-Wiki. We briefly illustrate the model inference process and compare predictions from PaLI-17B (in red) and AutoVER-7B (in green) which obtains the correct answer: ATR 42. AutoVER retrieves entity candidates without an external retriever (step 1), dynamically constructs a prefix tree (trie) (step 2), and performs decoding-time augmentation to guide autoregressive generation (step 3). + +task where MLLM-based solutions are prone to hallucinations, or producing answers that are not at the right level of granularity. Importantly, visual entity recognition requires recognizing entities that never appear in the training data (UNSEEN split). Moreover, a portion of the OVEN-Wiki benchmark (QUERY split) extends the task beyond recognition, requiring non-trivial reasoning to resolve the query question. + +Visual Entity Recognition (VER) presents unique challenges compared to general Visual Question Answering (VQA) [1, 45]. The first challenge lies in the answer label space comprising over 6 million Wikipedia entities, which is prohibitive for classifier-based VQA models [58] as many entities considered in this ontology are visually very similar. The second issue involves generation-based VQA solutions [18, 40], where hallucinations can lead to generated text that is not grounded to the entity space. Lastly, existing VQA approaches fail to consider the visual information of candidates [41, 65]. Entity images from the knowledge base also play a significant role when disambiguating between entities with similar identifiers but different visual appearance. These methods also struggle with out-of-domain generalization and multi-hop reasoning, challenges which are covered by the UNSEEN and QUERY split of the OVEN-Wiki dataset. + +In this work, we introduce an Autoregressive Visual Entity Recognizer (AutoVER), the first approach that enables multimodal language models to perform accurate visual entity recognition over a massive knowledge base. AutoVER addresses entity recognition by reformulating the problem as a sequence-to-sequence generation problem, as depicted in Fig. 1. The query image is translated into the token embedding space using a learnable projection layer, in a manner akin to treating images as a foreign language [43, 72]. This allows us to utilize pre-trained multi-modal language models and enormously improves performance on the QUERY split of OVEN-Wiki which requires reasoning over spatial relations, commonsense, and other visually-situated contexts. + +To take advantage of visual clues on the entity side and enhance the generalization capability of the model on UNSEEN entities, we propose a unified and compact retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) framework upon AutoVER. Specifically, a special token $\langle \text{ret} \rangle$ is added to the vocabulary, whose last-layer hidden states serve as the representation for the query side. A lightweight two-layer Transformer is responsible for fusing visual features from entity images and textual features from entity descriptions and producing a representation for the entities, allowing contrastive learning with query-entity positive pairs in parallel with language modeling. Unlike other RAG systems that directly use retrieved items as context [57, 75] or infuse them into the model's intermediate hidden states [17, 24, 39], AutoVER dynamically constructs a prefix tree (trie) from the retrieved entity identifiers, and then generates entity identifiers by leveraging a methodology that constrains the next possible tokens and eliminates invalid options based on the trie, thus ensuring the generated text can always be grounded in retrieved candidates. To alleviate the entity granularity problem, two hard negative sampling strategies are proposed in our contrastive-generative framework to encourage the model to maximally distinguish between similar entities. + +In summary, AUTOVER offers several advantages over baselines and prior work on VQA in the realm of visual entity recognition: (i) It refines the recognition process by integrating contrastive training into an MLLM. (ii) The proposed retrieval-augmented constrained decoding framework guarantees correct grounded entity prediction and enhances prediction over UNSEEN entities; (iii) AUTOVER leverages pre-trained visual models and knowledge graphs for hard negative mining which significantly strengthens our contrastive-generative framework in fine-grained entity recognition; (iv) Experimental results show that AUTOVER consistently outperforms fine-tuned CLIP and PaLI variants on all OVEN-Wiki splits. For instance, AUTOVER-7B achieves a $61.5\%$ accuracy on the OVEN-Wiki ENTITY SEEN split over PaLI-17B's $30.6\%$ , and $21.7\%$ on ENTITY UNSEEN over PaLI-17B's $12.4\%$ . Additionally, we evaluate AUTOVER alongside public multimodal LLMs on entity-related questions from the A-OKVQA dataset, demonstrating that our model can effectively zero-shot transfer to out-of-domain VQA datasets beyond OVEN-Wiki. Furthermore, ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of the introduced retrieve-generate framework. Code is released at https://github.com/MrZilinXiao/AutoVER. + +# 2 Related Work + +Visual Entity Recognition (VER) [28] is an emerging task for assessing the ability of a model to perform multi-modal knowledge grounding [29,53,79]. It can be regarded as a variant of visual question answering [1,45,59] with the key distinction that the choice set will comprise all entities in a specific knowledge base. Earlier solutions view this problem as an image-text-to-image-text retrieval task, where CLIP-based models [56] are fine-tuned and the top-scored answer in inference is treated as the model prediction. Alternatively, others rely on fine-tuning + +generative language models such as PaLI [12] and Git [8,71] in an attempt to match the generated text with candidate entity identifiers using sparse matching approaches such as BM25 [61]. Entity Linking (EL) has been a long-standing text-only counterpart to VER, which entails locating mentions in the document and disambiguating them against a set of candidate entities. Our method bears the closest resemblance with the recent generative EL paradigm [7,47,78], which also reduces the knowledge-grounding problem into a sequence-to-sequence generation task. However, we stand out with several distinct advantages, including the seamless integration of retrieval capabilities into the language model and the use of explicit guidance for sequence generation. + +Multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) are motivated by the remarkable reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). LLaVA [43] builds upon LLaMA [68] and uses instruction-tuning to align visual features to the language space. The common practice of prompting MLLMs to produce proxy representations for downstream usage is to expand the vocabulary of language models. Such expansion augments the MLLM functionality beyond language generation. FROMAGe [34], GILL [33], GenLLaVa [26] and LISA [37] achieve satisfactory results over image-text-to-text retrieval, image generation and reasoning segmentation by inserting special tokens to augment the MLLMs original functionality. Our approach, built upon one of the latest MLLM model architecture, presents a compelling alternative to the bi-encoder shallow dot-product interaction or encoder-decoder sparse surface form matching employed in previous works on visual entity recognition. Our method also integrates contrastive learning on the outputs of entities and question pairs, analogous to the image-text contrastive learning used in CLIP-like models [54, 56, 66] and among visual features used for self-supervised contrastive learning [3, 11, 16, 25]. + +Retrieval-Augmented Language Models (RALMs) represent a class of NLP solutions focusing on knowledge-intensive tasks. RALMs typically condition a language model on relevant documents from a grounding corpus during generation, thereby enhancing the performance in knowledge-intensive language understanding tasks. Lewis et al. [39] jointly fine-tune a retriever with an encoder-decoder model, enabling the community to explore the RALM paradigm in language understanding. Guu et al. [23] train a bi-directional variant and also demonstrate superior performance. Apart from retrieved items in context, Févry et al. [17] are the first to integrate retrieved entity supervision by injecting intermediate representations. While augmented context helps in mitigating the well-known issue of hallucination, it does not ensure a faithful prediction with respect to an external knowledge base. Our retrieve-generate framework is distinct from existing retrieval-augmented methods. AUTOVER reduces the candidate entity set from millions to hundreds for generative language models through retrieval [30] and dynamically constrains language model generation using a prefix tree. This framework coincides with the design philosophy of agents [22] in Interactive NLP [74], where an agent interacts with the dynamic environment by performing beam-search on all available options. + +![](images/0b98eb3cac018630fc99a4e28956a39499267543492cd431c21911f775cd4837.jpg) +Fig. 2: Joint training of in-batch contrastive learning and language modeling in AU-TOVER. For each training quadruple consisting of an entity image, an entity description, a query image and a query question, a lightweight Transformer encoder produces the fused entity representation $E_{i}$ (left half). A special retrieval token prompts the multimodal language model to generate the query representation $Q_{i}$ . The query-to-entity contrastive training (Lquery2ent) encourages the correct retrieval of entities given the query pair, and the language modeling (LLM) helps the successful entity grounding. + +# 3 Methodology + +We first formulate the Visual Entity Recognition problem in Sec. 3.1. Then we present the overview design of AUTOVER in Sec. 3.2. We illustrate hard-negative mining with knowledge base source and pre-trained visual model in Sec. 3.3 and retrieval-augmented constrained decoding process in Sec. 3.4. + +# 3.1 Problem Definition + +Visual Entity Recognition can be viewed as a multimodal knowledge grounding task, in which the model is required to process an image-text pair input $x = (\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{im}}, \mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{t}})$ and predict an entity $e$ . $\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{t}}$ describes the specific intent that prompts the model to ground some entity $e$ in the image $\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{im}}$ to a label space $\mathcal{E}$ . Each entity $e \in \mathcal{E}$ is a member of the knowledge base $\mathcal{K} = \{(e, \mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{im}}, \mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{desc}}) \mid e \in \mathcal{E}\}$ where $\mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{desc}}$ is a text description and $\mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{im}}$ is a set of relevant images of the entity. To circumvent trivial solutions for some query questions, all image-text pairs are annotated so the question cannot be correctly answered without the image. + +# 3.2 Model Overview + +AUTOVER consists of two main modules: a multi-modal language model $f_{\phi}$ initialized with pre-trained weights $\phi$ , and a multi-modal entity encoder $F_{\varphi}$ + +that fuses the entity image and textual description. To integrate the retrieval functionality into $f_{\phi}$ , we insert a special token $\langle \mathrm{ret} \rangle$ into the vocabulary of $f_{\phi}$ with its corresponding token embedding denoted as $\mathbf{H}_{\langle \mathrm{ret} \rangle}$ . + +We illustrate the training process in Fig. 2. For a training sample $(\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{im}},\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{t}},$ $\mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{im}},\mathbf{E}_{\mathrm{desc}})$ , we first use a frozen pre-trained CLIP visual encoder $g_{\mathrm{vision}}$ and a learnable projection $\mathbf{W}_q$ to extract query image features $\mathbf{H}_{\mathrm{im}}$ and the embedded query text representations $\mathbf{H}_{\mathrm{t}}$ as follow: + +$$ +\mathbf {H} _ {\mathrm {i m}} = \mathbf {W} _ {q} \cdot g _ {\text {v i s i o n}} \left(\mathbf {Q} _ {\mathrm {i m}}\right), +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {H} _ {\mathrm {t}} = \mathbf {W} _ {\text {e m b e d}} \cdot \mathbf {Q} _ {\mathrm {t}}, +$$ + +where $\mathbf{W}_{\mathrm{embed}}$ is the token embedding layer associated with $f_{\phi}$ , thus, treating the query image features as a foreign language. We concatenate the embedded query text representations and the query image features with the retrieval token embedding to organize the input instruction to model $\mathbf{H} = [\mathbf{H}_{\mathrm{im}}, \mathbf{H}_{\mathrm{t}}, \mathbf{H}_{<\mathrm{ret}}]$ . The last-layer hidden states of $\langle \mathrm{ret} \rangle$ token undergo dimension-matching projection and L2 normalization to a hyperspherical space, serving as the representation on the query side denoted as $Q$ . The use of a causal attention mask in $f_{\phi}$ allows this representation to incorporate the multi-modal query without leaking any label information. + +On the entity encoder side, a frozen CLIP visual encoder $g_{\text{vision}}$ transforms entity image $\mathbf{E}_{\text{im}}$ into grid image features $\mathbf{Z}_{\text{im}}$ , and the frozen CLIP text encoder $g_{\text{text}}$ encodes the entity identifier and description into text features $\mathbf{Z}_{\text{text}}$ . A two-layer Transformer encoder handles the fusion of two modalities by a fusion token as a soft prompt [38], whose design was also adopted in [32]. The final-layer hidden states of the fusion token are also subjected to dimension matching and L2 normalization, providing the entity representation $E$ . + +In-Batch Contrastive Training. Given normalized representations from both the query and entity side, $Q$ and $E$ , we formally introduce our in-batch contrastive training method specifically designed for query-to-entity retrieval. While image-text retrieval has been popular in learning joint vision and language representations [31, 56], few studies have delved into image-text-to-image-text retrieval, which happens to be the focus of query-to-entity retrieval. We adopt contrastive learning [13] and the InfoNCE loss [50] used in previous image-text retrieval work. Starting with computing the cosine similarity for a pair of representations, + +$$ +\operatorname {s i m} (Q, E) = \frac {Q \cdot E}{\| Q \| \| E \|}, +$$ + +we minimize the InfoNCE loss for query-to-entity on a mini-batch consisting of $N$ query-entity pairs $(Q_{i},E_{i})$ . Each corresponding pair is considered a positive pair and others are treated as negatives. $\tau$ is a learnable temperature parameter. Our formulation is as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {q u e r y 2 e n t}} = - \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \left(\log \frac {\exp \left(\mathrm {s i m} \left(Q _ {i} , E _ {i}\right) / \tau\right)}{\sum_ {j = 1} ^ {N} \exp \left(\mathrm {s i m} \left(Q _ {i} , E _ {j}\right) / \tau\right)}\right). +$$ + +![](images/fa4c29e372e65b90854f30e56c84bef71c7550286f367ef1f1344c5331395b78.jpg) +Fig. 3: Retrieval-augmented constrained decoding illustration of our proposed AutoVER inference process. The representation $Q$ will query a pre-cached entity database constructed using the multimodal entity encoder, and get the top- $k$ candidate entities. A prefix-constrained tree is dynamically built based on retrieved entity identifiers and guides the language model to autoregressively generate the next token, thereby ensuring the successful grounding of generated content. + +Note that we do not train for the reversed objective, i.e. entity-to-query, as it does not align with our retrieval-augmented intuition. + +In contrast to image-text retrieval which offers a unique correspondence between images and texts, query-to-entity mapping is subjective, i.e. multiple queries in the training data are associated with the same entity. This requires a particular sampling strategy during training to ensure that a batch does not include the same entity, referred to as a "conflicting batch". To preserve the integrity of the training data distribution, we implement a rejection sampling [20] method as an alternative to standard random sampling, resorting to resampling upon encountering conflicting batches. + +Language Modeling. With organized input instruction $\mathbf{H}$ , we optimize the following cross-entropy loss, which is known as the next token prediction loss in causal language modeling: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {L M}} = - \frac {1}{N - n} \sum_ {i = n} ^ {N} \log P (y _ {i} \mid \mathbf {H}, \dots , y _ {i - 1}), +$$ + +where $n$ is the length of $\mathbf{H}$ , $N$ denotes the length of the concatenation of $\mathbf{H}$ and the expected output, i.e. entity text identifier (BUGATTI VEYRON in Figure 2). Note that we do not backward the next token prediction loss on the input sequence, but only on the target sequence. + +The final training loss is a linear combination of the language modeling loss and in-batch contrastive loss, denoted as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {L M}} + \lambda_ {r} \cdot \mathcal {L} _ {\text {q u e r y 2 e n t}}, +$$ + +where $\lambda_r$ is an empirically determined trade-off hyperparameter. + +# 3.3 Hard-Negative Mining + +To alleviate the entity granularity problem, two hard negative sampling approaches are proposed in our contrastive-generative framework, i.e. VISION-HARD and KB-HARD. Both approaches create entity groups used for constructing an in-batch sampler that prefers sampling similar entities in contrastive training, yet they differ in how they generate these similar groups. VISION-HARD relies on a pre-trained ViT [15] image classifier to identify visually similar entities based on shared prediction classes. In contrast, KB-HARD uses the category hierarchy of Wikidata as an external knowledge source, considering entities that share a parent node in the category hierarchy as knowledge-similar entities. We refer readers to the supplementary material for details about the construction of hard negative groups. + +# 3.4 Retrieval-augmented Constrained Decoding + +We illustrate the proposed model inference in Fig. 3. After training, all entity candidates are cached using the multi-modal entity encoder $F_{\varphi}$ to construct an entity vector database $\mathcal{V} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ for efficient retrieval. Given an evaluation sample $(\mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{im}}, \mathbf{Q}_{\mathrm{t}})$ , we first forward the MLLM for the normalized representation of the token, and query database $\mathcal{V}$ using top- $k$ similarity search to get $k$ entity candidates. The model dynamically generates a prefix tree (trie) that covers $k$ entity candidates, and the trie will explicitly guide entity identifier generation by eliminating impossible decoding paths when autoregressively generating tokens. The retrieval process takes into consideration the image of entities and improves the model towards out-of-domain entities. Moreover, the retrieval-augmented constrained decoding guarantees the grounding of the generated content to the knowledge base, alleviating the issue of hallucinations. + +# 4 Experiments + +We describe the experimental setting in Sec. 4.1 and report the main results in Sec. 4.2. We present the zero-shot generalization results in Sec. 4.3 and ablation study in Sec. 4.4 with discussions.

[28], which uses accuracy and harmonic mean to evaluate model performance on different data splits. The harmonic mean of each split will equally weigh the importance of the seen and unseen subsets and penalize models that show weakness in either aspect. Finally, we report the overall harmonic mean on the ENTITY and QUERY splits as the final metric for the validation and test sets. + +Table 1: Comparison among models on the OVEN-Wiki validation set.

+ +Data Pre-processing and Models. We pre-process all query and entity images by resizing them into $336 \times 336$ pixels with padding to keep an identical aspect ratio. Entity descriptions are truncated to 77 tokens to fit the context window size of CLIP by cutting off sentences to the maximum available ones. Since query texts are typically short, no truncation is needed for query texts. Encoders on the entity side and visual encoder in MLLM are pre-trained CLIP-ViT/L/14-336px. The MLLM is initialized with the vicuna-7b-v1.5 or vicuna-13b-v1.5 checkpoint and corresponding visual projectors pre-aligned on a 558k subset of LAION [63], CC [9] and SBU [52] curated by Liu et al.

We attribute this to the inherent reasoning and visual localization capabilities within the MLLM, a proficiency that has been extensively demonstrated across various benchmarks targeting MLLMs [10, 48]. + +On UNSEEN subsets, accuracy is severely impacted by queries whose answers involve out-of-domain entities, particularly in the Entity split. Nevertheless, AU-TOVER still outperforms the largest model, PaLI-17B, which can be attributed to the retrieval-augmented framework eliminating many improbable options for the decision-making of the MLLM. + +We report results on test and human evaluation set in Tab. 2. Similarly, AUTOVER-13B achieves the best performance on subsets and splits of the test set. However, it must be acknowledged that there remains a gap between our results and those of Human + Search in the human validation set, particularly in the human UNSEEN subset, where the difference reaches $35.1\%$ . + +In addition, we report the zero-shot visual entity recognition abilities of the largest BLIP-2 [40] checkpoint and GPT-4V $^3$ [51] on the validation set in Tab. 1, whereas no fine-tuning is performed on the training dataset. For BLIP-2, zero-shot generated outputs are grounded to Wikipedia using BM25, following generative baseline methods. As for GPT-4V, its elaborate generation, a result of instruction tuning, impedes effective evaluation with BM25. Hence, we adopt a partial matching evaluation strategy, treating the presence of the entity identi + +fer in the generated text as a true positive. While BLIP-2 performance is anticipated, as its lack of fine-tuning hinders the acknowledgment of entity grounding intents, GPT-4V has surprisingly exceptional performance on the QUERY split. Nevertheless, GPT-4V poor performance on the ENTITY split still leaves it trailing behind AutoVER. Furthermore, the opacity of its training data prevents us from determining if GPT-4V excellent zero-shot performance is attributable to possible data leakage. + +# 4.3 Zero-shot Generalization Results + +Although OVEN-Wiki has already incorporated 14 classic datasets4 from image recognition and visual question answering, along with extensive annotation efforts that ground answers to the knowledge base, we still hope to test the generalization capability of our method using additional out-of-domain datasets. As such, we manually curated a subset from the A-OKVQA [64] validation dataset. The subset does not overlap with any dataset sources in OVEN-Wiki and covers all question-answer pairs in the A-OKVQA validation split whose answer can be grounded to entities in the Wikipedia knowledge base. We name the subset A-OKVQA-ENT to emphasize this distinct property. Following the design of OVEN-Wiki, we divide the subset into SEEN and UNSEEN splits depending on whether the answer entity is in the OVEN-Wiki train set. This subset includes 478 entries out of 1,145 in the A-OKVQA validation set, of which 322 are identified as SEEN, while the remaining 156 are classified as UNSEEN. + +To adhere to the evaluation setting of A-OKVQA, we adopted two evaluation approaches - multi-choice and entity match. In the multi-choice setting, AUTOVER constructs a prefix tree with four available options to guide generation, while for other models, options are numbered in the prompt and either the correct option number or an exact entity identifier match in the response is considered a true prediction. In the entity match setting, a partial match of the entity text identifier within the generated response qualifies a correct prediction. To ensure equitable comparison, baselines included are other generative models comparable in size with AUTOVER-7B, specifically LLaVA [43] and its improved v1.5 version [42], OpenFlamingo [4], and InstructBLIP [14]. While we expect that all models have not seen the A-OKVQA dataset so that we can assess the zero-shot generalization ability, it is important to acknowledge that LLaVA-v1.5 has been fine-tuned with 50k A-OKVQA multi-choice instructions, potentially giving it an edge. For context, we still include LLaVA-v1.5 results although they are not directly comparable. + +We present results on A-OKVQA-ENT in Tab. 3 and Tab. 4, and refer readers to the supplementary material for qualitative analysis on this dataset. Our method still outperforms baseline models across all evaluation settings, with the exception of multiple-choice LLaVA-v1.5 which has been tuned with in-domain + +Table 3: Model accuracies on A-OKVQA-ENT under multi-choice evaluation.

+ +instructions. Interestingly, we find that LLaVA-v1.5 in the entity match evaluation setting still falls short of AutoVER-7B, although it has seen in-domain samples. We also observed that LLaVA-v1 and OpenFlamingo, with inadequate instruction tuning, find it challenging to comply with the multiple-choice setting, and instead generate content unrelated to the given options, leading to their significantly lower metrics. Those findings reveal that generative language models struggle to adapt well to out-of-domain instructions and that unrestricted generation is prone to hallucinations in tasks requiring precise recognition. This further emphasizes the advantages of retrieval-assisted decoding-time augmentation for such tasks. + +# 4.4 Ablation Study and Discussion + +We present ablation studies exploring the effect of retrieval augmented generation, constrained decoding, and hard negative mining in Tab. 5. Ablations are conducted with $10\%$ of the training data and as such the metrics in ablations differ from our main results and we refer to our model as AutoVER-7B-0.1. + +Retrieval Augmentation. We first focus on the absence of retrieval augmentation in AutoVER. Without retrieval, the model performs constrained decoding over a prefix tree composed of all Wikipedia entity identifiers instead of a set of retrieved candidates. We notice a slight performance gain on the seen subset, + +Table 5: Ablation study of AUTOVER-7B-0.1 on OVEN-Wiki ENTITY Split(Va1). + +

+ +likely due to the gold entity not being covered in retrieval. Conversely, the integrated retrieval design is found to significantly improve the performance of AUTOVER on the UNSEEN subset from non-viable to viable. Retrieval-augmented constrained decoding narrows down the decision-making scope of the language model, allowing AUTOVER to generate entity identifiers that are never seen during training. + +Constrained Decoding. Upon the excluding of retrieval augmentation, we proceed to disable the entire constrained decoding mechanism, reverting AUTOVER to greedily decode the next token, where grounding to an external knowledge base is no longer assured. The consequent decrease in SEEN accuracy demonstrates that constrained decoding effectively alleviates hallucinations of the model in predicting entities. Unfortunately, since neither checkpoints of encoder-decoder variants from [28] in Table 1 and 2 nor PaLI pre-trained weights are publicly available, we are unable to assess whether our proposed decoding-time augmenting methods can bring universal improvement on generative baselines. + +Parameter-Efficient Tuning (LoRA). Our ablations extend to the impact of parameter-efficient tuning methods on AUTOVER. Specifically, we configure a low-rank adapter (LoRA) [27] with a rank of 128 and alpha set at 256 and train this LoRA-variant of AUTOVER. The results reveal that the efficacy of LoRA falls short of expectation and explicitly harms the recognition performance on the SEEN subset. We leave more specialized efficient tuning methods for the generative VER framework as future work. + +Autoregressive Model or Classifier. One may attribute the success of AutoVER to the large model size of its underlying MLLM and accompanied expressive capacity instead of our proposed design. In response to that, we devise a [CLS] variant of AutoVER. It follows the classical design of treating a decoder-only LM as a classifier. Specifically, we introduce a new [CLS] token into the MLLM vocabulary and append this token at the end of each query image-question pair. The corresponding last-layer hidden states are then finetuned for classifying the query into the 20,549 existing entities in OVEN-Wiki. We observed a significant performance degradation in this setting, particularly in the UNSEEN subset. This highlights the ineffectiveness of classifier-based VQA methods in the realm of visual entity recognition, indicating that our model performance stems from more than just its size. + +![](images/491d46ec091cf6cb14c53bd10cbd081f0cb745b31e711ae2bf18348cc55a0e89.jpg) + +![](images/2130ad7c6617da05ae40d553bf2cadd64d233a6fed0b4db3bab85d7ef4005843.jpg) +Input + +![](images/dde33d6889781601579a7eaaf6db2a461f9c3ebe9a0d6330e941ffbe5cb10ff6.jpg) +一 +一 +Boeing +Fairchild Aircraft + +![](images/66a8617a5d2964592c5d6f9c88feed3a9faac49f2d6f1f46c727570283aabbca.jpg) + +![](images/238b816aa71bba3fc65a55c66b05e06e5a338382b0a8994f41ee4fe6c62447b6.jpg) +一 +Candidates + +![](images/961a17ce5cf07f4f068705586a2964d60536f4bb8de65e64b486b250e942379b.jpg) +tes — + +![](images/a646132a1964047e095e1f6792a9396086f8e399d6ff0bbe182e1e81eaee096b.jpg) + +![](images/bf857c2e9adb810cdc3e24b0d98719c680fb0952ece9743ec97e850e6c2a65c2.jpg) + +![](images/10849b52149114db5581528916d189c25ba1a3d4e152311adb9fa6a678f622a1.jpg) +MLLM Decision +BOEING + +![](images/485a31118b201ec4925f2ac3d980dec1c3891f2a8a913ddc7a4b18ee5910cdf2.jpg) + +![](images/08867bf2a03a8d56f3bb8668a10de8a8c52e068891127fb2828b1f04442983c2.jpg) +What is the topping on the hot dog called? +Fig. 4: Illustration of selected query image-question pairs, retrieved candidates and AUTOVER-7B decisions.

We note that for the same query image, questions with different intents lead to retrieval representations with semantic relevance to the intent, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent constrained generation. For instance, in the upper part of Fig. 4, the question asking for the specific model of airplane prompts the model to retrieve various kinds of airplanes. With a slight modification from "model" to "manufacturer" in the query question, the model adapts to retrieve famous airplane manufacturer brands instead of plane models. Likewise, the model is also proficient in managing queries that demand visual localization and reasoning abilities, as depicted in the lower part of Fig. 4. We refer to the supplementary material for the error analysis and more case studies with comparisons against GPT-4V. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We present AUTOVER, a compact retrieval-augmented generation framework specifically designed for visual entity recognition. Utilizing a novel constrained decoding technique, this approach effectively overcomes the challenges of low performance in recognizing out-of-domain entities while demonstrating remarkable proficiency in questions that require visually-situated reasoning. AUTOVER marks a significant advancement in visual entity recognition by doubling accuracy on nearly all challenging subsets of benchmarks. We discuss limitations in the supplementary material. + +Acknowledgements.

We introduce AutoVER, an Autoregressive model for Visual Entity Recognition. Our model extends an autoregressive Multi-modal Large Language Model by employing retrieval augmented constrained generation.

Our method learns to distinguish similar entities within a vast label space by contrastively training on hard negative pairs in parallel with a sequence-to-sequence objective without an external retriever.

A lightweight two-layer Transformer is responsible for fusing visual features from entity images and textual features from entity descriptions and producing a representation for the entities, allowing contrastive learning with query-entity positive pairs in parallel with language modeling. Unlike other RAG systems that directly use retrieved items as context [57, 75] or infuse them into the model's intermediate hidden states [17, 24, 39], AutoVER dynamically constructs a prefix tree (trie) from the retrieved entity identifiers, and then generates entity identifiers by leveraging a methodology that constrains the next possible tokens and eliminates invalid options based on the trie, thus ensuring the generated text can always be grounded in retrieved candidates.

LLaVA [43] builds upon LLaMA [68] and uses instruction-tuning to align visual features to the language space.

Such expansion augments the MLLM functionality beyond language generation. FROMAGe [34], GILL [33], GenLLaVa [26] and LISA [37] achieve satisfactory results over image-text-to-text retrieval, image generation and reasoning segmentation by inserting special tokens to augment the MLLMs original functionality. Our approach, built upon one of the latest MLLM model architecture, presents a compelling alternative to the bi-encoder shallow dot-product interaction or encoder-decoder sparse surface form matching employed in previous works on visual entity recognition. Our method also integrates contrastive learning on the outputs of entities and question pairs, analogous to the image-text contrastive learning used in CLIP-like models [54, 56, 66] and among visual features used for self-supervised contrastive learning [3, 11, 16, 25]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 449, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 449, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 449, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Retrieval-Augmented Language Models (RALMs) represent a class of NLP solutions focusing on knowledge-intensive tasks.

While augmented context helps in mitigating the well-known issue of hallucination, it does not ensure a faithful prediction with respect to an external knowledge base. Our retrieve-generate framework is distinct from existing retrieval-augmented methods. AUTOVER reduces the candidate entity set from millions to hundreds for generative language models through retrieval [30] and dynamically constrains language model generation using a prefix tree.

Unfortunately, since neither checkpoints of encoder-decoder variants from [28] in Table 1 and 2 nor PaLI pre-trained weights are publicly available, we are unable to assess whether our proposed decoding-time augmenting methods can bring universal improvement on generative baselines." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 434, + 481, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 434, + 481, + 517 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 434, + 481, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Parameter-Efficient Tuning (LoRA).

In response to that, we devise a [CLS] variant of AutoVER. It follows the classical design of treating a decoder-only LM as a classifier. Specifically, we introduce a new [CLS] token into the MLLM vocabulary and append this token at the end of each query image-question pair. The corresponding last-layer hidden states are then finetuned for classifying the query into the 20,549 existing entities in OVEN-Wiki. We observed a significant performance degradation in this setting, particularly in the UNSEEN subset.

This work presents an adaptive group testing framework for the range-based high dimensional near neighbor search problem. Our method efficiently marks each item in a database as neighbor or non-neighbor of a query point, based on a cosine distance threshold without exhaustive search. Like other methods for large scale retrieval, our approach exploits the assumption that most of the items in the database are unrelated to the query. Unlike other methods, it does not assume a large difference between the cosine similarity of the query vector with the least related neighbor and that with the least unrelated non-neighbor. Following a multi-stage adaptive group testing algorithm based on binary splitting, we divide the set of items to be searched into half at each step, and perform dot product tests on smaller and smaller subsets, many of which we are able to prune away. We experimentally show that, using softmax-based features, our method achieves a more than ten-fold speed-up over exhaustive search with no loss of accuracy, on a variety of large datasets. Based on empirically verified models for the distribution of cosine distances, we present a theoretical analysis of the expected number of distance computations per query and the probability that a pool with a certain number of members will be pruned. Our method has the following features: (i) It implicitly exploits useful distributional properties of cosine distances unlike other methods; (ii) All required data structures are created purely offline; (iii) It does not impose any strong assumptions on the number of true near neighbors; (iv) It is adaptable to streaming settings where new vectors are dynamically added to the database; and (v) It does not require any parameter tuning.

One of the major contributions in this area is called Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) [28].

The LSH family of algorithms consists of many variants such as those involving multiple buckets per query vector, data-driven or machine learning based construction of LSH functions [15, 19], and count-based methods [31]. In general, LSH based methods are difficult to implement for very high dimensions owing to the curse of dimensionality in constructing effective hash tables. Dimensionality reduction algorithms can mitigate this issue to some extent, but they are themselves expensive to implement and incur some inevitable data loss. There is also significant research in graph-based methods for nearest neighbor (NN) search, as explored in [22,25,32]. These methods typically achieve high accuracy and efficient query times. However, they often need relatively high pre-processing times, making them less suitable for dynamic datasets that require frequent addition of new points. In addition, various randomized variants of KD-trees and priority search K-means trees have been investigated for efficient approximate NN search in high-dimensional spaces, as seen in [35] and [33].

We start by presenting a brief overview of the field of GT. Consider $N$ items $\\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N$ (also called 'samples' in many references), out of which only a small number $s \\ll N$ are 'defective'. We consider the $i$ th item to be defective if $x_i = 1$ and non-defective if $x_i = 0$ . GT involves testing a certain number of 'pools' ( $m \\ll N$ ) to identify the defective items from $\\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N$ . Each pool (also called 'group') is created by mixing together or combining subsets of the $N$ items. Thus the $j$ th pool ( $j \\in [m]$ ) is represented as $y_j = \\bigvee_{i=1}^N A_{ji} x_i$ , where $\\bigvee$ stands for bit-wise OR, and $\\mathbf{A} \\in \\{0,1\\}^{m \\times N}$ is a binary pooling matrix where $A_{ji} = 1$ if the $i$ th item participates in the $j$ th pool and 0 otherwise.

In the first round of Dorfman's method, some $N / K$ pools, each consisting of $K$ items, are tested. The items that participated in pools that test negative (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain no defective item) are declared non-defective, whereas all items that participated in the positive pools (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain at least one defective item) are tested individually in the second round. Theoretical analysis shows that for $s \\ll N$ , this method requires much fewer than $N$ tests in the worst case. This algorithm was extended to some $r$ rounds in [30], where positive groups are further divided into smaller groups, and individual testing is performed only in the $r$ th round. The methods in [20,30] are said to be adaptive in nature, as the results of one round are given as input to the next one. The GT literature also contains a large number of non-adaptive algorithms that make predictions in a single round. A popular algorithm is called COMP or combinatorial orthogonal matching pursuit, which declares all items participating in a negative pool to be negative, and all the rest to be positive [14]. Many variants of COMP such as Noisy COMP (NCOMP) or Definite Defectives (DD) are also popular [14]. A popular class of non-adaptive GT algorithms [23] draw heavily from the compressed sensing (CS) literature [17, 38]. Such algorithms can consider quantitative information for each $\\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N$ so that each $x_i \\in \\mathbb{R}$ , and every pool $y_j$ also gives a real-valued result. The pooling matrix $\\mathbf{A}$ remains binary, and we have the relation $\\forall j \\in [m], y_j = \\sum_{i=1}^{N} A_{ji} x_i$ . Given $\\{y_j\\}_{j=1}^m$ and $\\mathbf{A}$ , the unknown vector $\\mathbf{x}$ can be recovered using efficient convex optimization methods such as the LASSO given by $\\hat{\\mathbf{x}} = \\operatorname{Argmin}_\\mathbf{x} \\| \\mathbf{y} - \\mathbf{A}\\mathbf{x} \\|_2^2 + \\lambda \\| \\mathbf{x} \\|_1$ , where $\\lambda$ is a regularization parameter [26].

On the other hand, we focus on accurate query results with good computational efficiency in practice. Our approach is based on an adaptive GT approach called binary splitting. Like existing GT based algorithms such as [21, 29, 36], our approach is also based on the assumption that in high-dimensional NN search, most vectors in the database $\\mathcal{D}$ are dissimilar to a query vector $\\mathbf{q}$ , and very few vectors qualify as near neighbors.

For efficiency of implementation, it is important to be able to create the different pools such as $y_0, y_{11}, y_{12}, y_{21}, y_{22}, y_{23}, y_{24}$ , etc., efficiently. For this purpose, we maintain cumulative sums of the following form in memory:", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 146, + 787, + 313 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "type": "equation", + "text": "\n$$\n\\tilde {\\boldsymbol {f}} _ {1} = \\boldsymbol {f} _ {1}, \\tilde {\\boldsymbol {f}} _ {2} = \\tilde {\\boldsymbol {f}} _ {1} + \\boldsymbol {f} _ {2}, \\dots , \\tilde {\\boldsymbol {f}} _ {N} = \\tilde {\\boldsymbol {f}} _ {N - 1} + \\boldsymbol {f} _ {N}. \\tag {1}\n$$\n", + "text_format": "latex", + "bbox": [ + 336, + 316, + 784, + 335 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "The cumulative sums are useful for efficient creation of various pools. They are created purely offline, independent of any query vector. The pools are created using simple vector difference operations, given these cumulative sums. For example, notice that $\\mathbf{y}_0 = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_N$ , $\\mathbf{y}_{11} = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_{\\lfloor N / 2\\rfloor}$ and $\\mathbf{y}_{12} = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_N - \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_{\\lfloor N / 2\\rfloor}$ . The overall binary splitting procedure is presented in Alg. 1 (a schematic diagram is provided in [13]). For the sake of greater efficiency, it is implemented non-recursively using a simple stack data structure. This binary splitting approach is quite different from Dorfman's algorithm [20], which performs individual testing in the second round. Our approach is more similar to Hwang's generalized binary splitting approach, a GT procedure which was proposed in [27] (see also [8], Alg. 1.1 of [14]). However compared to Hwang's technique, our approach allows for creation of all pools either in a purely offline manner or with simple updates involving a single vector-subtraction operation (for example, $\\mathbf{y}_{12} = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_N - \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_{\\lfloor N / 2\\rfloor}$ in the earlier example). On the other hand, the method in [27] detects defective one at a time, after going through all $\\log_2N$ levels of recursion. Once a defective item is detected, it is discarded and all pools are created again. The entire set of $\\log_2N$ levels of recursion are again executed. This process is repeated until all defectives have been detected and discarded one at a time. The method from [27] is computationally inefficient for high-dimensional NN search, as the pools must be created afresh for each level of recursion. This is because if a vector at index $i$ is discarded, all cumulative sums from index $i + 1$ to $N$ need to be updated. Such updates are not required in our method. We also emphasize that the techniques in [14,20,27,30] have all been applied only for binary GT and not for NN search (see the beginning of Sec. 5 for an important difference between binary GT and NN search). The binary splitting procedure saves on a large number of tests because in high dimensional search, we observe that most vectors in $\\mathcal{D}$ are dissimilar to a given query vector $q$ , as will be demonstrated in Sec. 4. After the first round where pool $y_0$ is created, all other pools are essentially created randomly (since the initial arrangement of the vectors in $\\mathcal{D}$ is random). As a result, across the different rounds, many pools test negative and are dropped out, especially in later rounds. In particular, we note that there is no loss of accuracy in this method, although we save on the number of tests by a factor more than ten on some large datasets (as will be shown in Sec. 4).", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 340, + 787, + 843 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "Group Testing for NN Search", + "bbox": [ + 532, + 114, + 730, + 128 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "5", + "bbox": [ + 774, + 116, + 784, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "type": "code", + "sub_type": "algorithm", + "code_caption": [ + "Algorithm 1 Iterative Binary Splitting (see [13, Fig. 1] for a diagram)" + ], + "code_body": "1: $Fs\\gets [\\widetilde{f}_1,\\widetilde{f}_2,\\dots,\\widetilde{f}_N]$ \n2: $S$ -stack for storing triples $\\{si,ei,sim\\}$ where $si,ei$ are start and end index for a pool, sim $=$ dot product between query vector q and pool vector. \n3: $Flg$ array of size $N$ flags, all 0's initially ( $0 =$ non-neighbor, $1 =$ neighbor of q) \n4: S.push $\\{1,N,q^t\\widetilde{f}_N\\}$ , i.e. $si = 1,ei = N$ \n5: while S.size() $\\neq 0$ do \n6: $\\{si,ei,sim\\} \\leftarrow S.top();S.pop()$ \n7: if sim $\\geq \\rho$ then \n8: $n\\gets ei - si + 1$ \n9: if $n > 2$ then \n10: $rsim\\gets q^{t}(\\widetilde{fe}_{i} - \\widetilde{fs}_{i + \\lfloor n / 2\\rfloor -1})$ $\\triangleright$ testing right-half \n11: S.push $\\{si + \\lfloor n / 2\\rfloor ,ei,rsim\\}$ ; push right branch onto stack \n12: S.push $\\{si,si + \\lfloor n / 2\\rfloor -1,sim - rsim\\}$ ; push left branch onto stack \n13: else \n14: if $n = 2$ then \n15: $rsim\\gets q^{t}(\\widetilde{fe}_{i} - \\widetilde{fs}_{i})$ \n16: set $Flg[ei] = 1$ , if $rsim\\geq \\rho$ \n17: set $Flg[si] = 1$ , if sim-rsim $\\geq \\rho$ \n18: else \n19: $Flg[si] = 1$ $\\triangleright$ Mark si a neighbor \n20: end if \n21: end if \n22: end if \n23: end while", + "bbox": [ + 215, + 164, + 787, + 505 + ], + "page_idx": 5 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Pooling using Element-wise Maximum: We have so far described pool creation using vector summation.

This work presents an adaptive group testing framework for the range-based high dimensional near neighbor search problem. Our method efficiently marks each item in a database as neighbor or non-neighbor of a query point, based on a cosine distance threshold without exhaustive search. Like other methods for large scale retrieval, our approach exploits the assumption that most of the items in the database are unrelated to the query. Unlike other methods, it does not assume a large difference between the cosine similarity of the query vector with the least related neighbor and that with the least unrelated non-neighbor. Following a multi-stage adaptive group testing algorithm based on binary splitting, we divide the set of items to be searched into half at each step, and perform dot product tests on smaller and smaller subsets, many of which we are able to prune away. We experimentally show that, using softmax-based features, our method achieves a more than ten-fold speed-up over exhaustive search with no loss of accuracy, on a variety of large datasets. Based on empirically verified models for the distribution of cosine distances, we present a theoretical analysis of the expected number of distance computations per query and the probability that a pool with a certain number of members will be pruned. Our method has the following features: (i) It implicitly exploits useful distributional properties of cosine distances unlike other methods; (ii) All required data structures are created purely offline; (iii) It does not impose any strong assumptions on the number of true near neighbors; (iv) It is adaptable to streaming settings where new vectors are dynamically added to the database; and (v) It does not require any parameter tuning.

One of the major contributions in this area is called Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) [28].

The LSH family of algorithms consists of many variants such as those involving multiple buckets per query vector, data-driven or machine learning based construction of LSH functions [15, 19], and count-based methods [31]. In general, LSH based methods are difficult to implement for very high dimensions owing to the curse of dimensionality in constructing effective hash tables. Dimensionality reduction algorithms can mitigate this issue to some extent, but they are themselves expensive to implement and incur some inevitable data loss. There is also significant research in graph-based methods for nearest neighbor (NN) search, as explored in [22,25,32]. These methods typically achieve high accuracy and efficient query times. However, they often need relatively high pre-processing times, making them less suitable for dynamic datasets that require frequent addition of new points. In addition, various randomized variants of KD-trees and priority search K-means trees have been investigated for efficient approximate NN search in high-dimensional spaces, as seen in [35] and [33].

We start by presenting a brief overview of the field of GT. Consider \\(N\\) items \\(\\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N\\) (also called 'samples' in many references), out of which only a small number \\(s \\ll N\\) are 'defective'. We consider the \\(i\\)th item to be defective if \\(x_i = 1\\) and non-defective if \\(x_i = 0\\). GT involves testing a certain number of 'pools' (\\(m \\ll N\\)) to identify the defective items from \\(\\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N\\). Each pool (also called 'group') is created by mixing together or combining subsets of the \\(N\\) items. Thus the \\(j\\)th pool (\\(j \\in [m]\\)) is represented as \\(y_j = \\bigvee_{i=1}^N A_{ji} x_i\\), where \\(\\bigvee\\) stands for bit-wise OR, and \\(\\mathbf{A} \\in \\{0,1\\}^{m \\times N}\\) is a binary pooling matrix where \\(A_{ji} = 1\\) if the \\(i\\)th item participates in the \\(j\\)th pool and 0 otherwise.

In the first round of Dorfman's method, some \\( N / K \\) pools, each consisting of \\( K \\) items, are tested. The items that participated in pools that test negative (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain no defective item) are declared non-defective, whereas all items that participated in the positive pools (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain at least one defective item) are tested individually in the second round. Theoretical analysis shows that for \\( s \\ll N \\), this method requires much fewer than \\( N \\) tests in the worst case. This algorithm was extended to some \\( r \\) rounds in [30], where positive groups are further divided into smaller groups, and individual testing is performed only in the \\( r \\)th round. The methods in [20,30] are said to be adaptive in nature, as the results of one round are given as input to the next one. The GT literature also contains a large number of non-adaptive algorithms that make predictions in a single round. A popular algorithm is called COMP or combinatorial orthogonal matching pursuit, which declares all items participating in a negative pool to be negative, and all the rest to be positive [14]. Many variants of COMP such as Noisy COMP (NCOMP) or Definite Defectives (DD) are also popular [14]. A popular class of non-adaptive GT algorithms [23] draw heavily from the compressed sensing (CS) literature [17, 38]. Such algorithms can consider quantitative information for each \\( \\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^N \\) so that each \\( x_i \\in \\mathbb{R} \\), and every pool \\( y_j \\) also gives a real-valued result. The pooling matrix \\( \\mathbf{A} \\) remains binary, and we have the relation \\( \\forall j \\in [m], y_j = \\sum_{i=1}^{N} A_{ji} x_i \\). Given \\( \\{y_j\\}_{j=1}^m \\) and \\( \\mathbf{A} \\), the unknown vector \\( \\mathbf{x} \\) can be recovered using efficient convex optimization methods such as the LASSO given by \\( \\hat{\\mathbf{x}} = \\operatorname{Argmin}_\\mathbf{x} \\| \\mathbf{y} - \\mathbf{A}\\mathbf{x} \\|_2^2 + \\lambda \\| \\mathbf{x} \\|_1 \\), where \\( \\lambda \\) is a regularization parameter [26].

The overall binary splitting procedure is presented in Alg. 1 (a schematic diagram is provided in [13]). For the sake of greater efficiency, it is implemented non-recursively using a simple stack data structure. This binary splitting approach is quite different from Dorfman's algorithm [20], which performs individual testing in the second round. Our approach is more similar to Hwang's generalized binary splitting approach, a GT procedure which was proposed in [27] (see also [8], Alg. 1.1 of [14]). However compared to Hwang's technique, our approach allows for creation of all pools either in a purely offline manner or with simple updates involving a single vector-subtraction operation (for example, \\( \\mathbf{y}_{12} = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_N - \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_{\\lfloor N / 2\\rfloor} \\) in the earlier example). On the other hand, the method in [27] detects defective one at a time, after going through all \\( \\log_2N \\) levels of recursion. Once a defective item is detected, it is discarded and all pools are created again. The entire set of \\( \\log_2N \\) levels of recursion are again executed. This process is repeated until all defectives have been detected and discarded one at a time. The method from [27] is computationally inefficient for high-dimensional NN search, as the pools must be created afresh for each level of recursion. This is because if a vector at index \\( i \\) is discarded, all cumulative sums from index \\( i + 1 \\) to \\( N \\) need to be updated. Such updates are not required in our method. We also emphasize that the techniques in [14,20,27,30] have all been applied only for binary GT and not for NN search (see the beginning of Sec. 5 for an important difference between binary GT and NN search). The binary splitting procedure saves on a large number of tests because in high dimensional search, we observe that most vectors in \\( \\mathcal{D} \\) are dissimilar to a given query vector \\( q \\), as will be demonstrated in Sec. 4. After the first round where pool \\( y_0 \\) is created, all other pools are essentially created randomly (since the initial arrangement of the vectors in \\( \\mathcal{D} \\) is random).

It is also easily applicable to situations where new vectors are dynamically added to an existing gallery, without requiring any expensive updates. Apart from this, our technique also has advantages in terms of accuracy of query results (especially recall) over many recent, state of the art methods. A significant limitation of our method is that it currently only supports cosine distances and is applicable only to databases with a sharp decay in feature similarity distribution, as in the case with softmax features. At present, a pool may produce a large dot product value with a query vector, even though many or even all the members of the pool are dissimilar to the query vector.

This work presents an adaptive group testing framework for the range-based high dimensional near neighbor search problem. Our method efficiently marks each item in a database as neighbor or non-neighbor of a query point, based on a cosine distance threshold without exhaustive search. Like other methods for large scale retrieval, our approach exploits the assumption that most of the items in the database are unrelated to the query. Unlike other methods, it does not assume a large difference between the cosine similarity of the query vector with the least related neighbor and that with the least unrelated non-neighbor. Following a multi-stage adaptive group testing algorithm based on binary splitting, we divide the set of items to be searched into half at each step, and perform dot product tests on smaller and smaller subsets, many of which we are able to prune away. We experimentally show that, using softmax-based features, our method achieves a more than ten-fold speed-up over exhaustive search with no loss of accuracy, on a variety of large datasets. Based on empirically verified models for the distribution of cosine distances, we present a theoretical analysis of the expected number of distance computations per query and the probability that a pool with a certain number of members will be pruned. Our method has the following features: (i) It implicitly exploits useful distributional properties of cosine distances unlike other methods; (ii) All required data structures are created purely offline; (iii) It does not impose any strong assumptions on the number of true near neighbors; (iv) It is adaptable to streaming settings where new vectors are dynamically added to the database; and (v) It does not require any parameter tuning. The high recall of our technique makes it particularly suited to plagiarism detection scenarios where it is important to report every database item that is sufficiently similar item to the query. + +Keywords: near neighbor search, group testing, image retrieval + +# 1 Introduction + +Near neighbor (NN) search is a fundamental problem in machine learning, computer vision, image analysis and recommender systems. Consider a database $\mathcal{D}$ of $N$ vectors given as $\{\pmb {f}_1,\pmb {f}_2,\dots ,\pmb {f}_N\}$ where each $\pmb {f}_i\in \mathbb{R}^d$ . Given a query vector + +$\pmb{q} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ , our aim is to determine all those vectors in $\mathcal{D}$ such that $\mathrm{sim}(\pmb{q}, \pmb{f}_i) \geq \rho$ , where $\mathrm{sim}(.,.)$ denotes some similarity measure, and $\rho$ denotes some threshold on $\mathrm{sim}$ . This is called a similarity measure based NN query. Another variant is the $K$ nearest neighbor (KNN) search where the aim is to find the $K$ most similar neighbors to $\pmb{q}$ . + +A significant portion of the literature on NN search focuses on approximate methods, often resulting in less than perfect recall rates, i.e. many database images that are similar to the query image are not retrieved. This deficiency renders them unsuitable for applications requiring high recall, such as plagiarism detection. In such scenarios, the query vectors, such as images or music files, are compared to an existing database of similar entities, and all vectors exhibiting high similarity with the query need to be retrieved for plagiarism assessment. The failure to retrieve a near neighbor could potentially lead to unfair evaluation of submissions to photography or music competitions, or online forums. + +Related Work on NN Search: There exists a large body of literature on approximate NN search in higher dimensions. One of the major contributions in this area is called Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) [28]. Here, a hashing function partitions the dataset into buckets, such that only close vectors are likely to be hashed to the same bucket. The LSH family of algorithms consists of many variants such as those involving multiple buckets per query vector, data-driven or machine learning based construction of LSH functions [15, 19], and count-based methods [31]. In general, LSH based methods are difficult to implement for very high dimensions owing to the curse of dimensionality in constructing effective hash tables. Dimensionality reduction algorithms can mitigate this issue to some extent, but they are themselves expensive to implement and incur some inevitable data loss. There is also significant research in graph-based methods for nearest neighbor (NN) search, as explored in [22,25,32]. These methods typically achieve high accuracy and efficient query times. However, they often need relatively high pre-processing times, making them less suitable for dynamic datasets that require frequent addition of new points. In addition, various randomized variants of KD-trees and priority search K-means trees have been investigated for efficient approximate NN search in high-dimensional spaces, as seen in [35] and [33]. Despite their efficiency, these approaches involve numerous parameters, which can complicate tuning, especially for large datasets. + +Overview of Group Testing: In this work, we present a group testing (GT) based approach for the NN problem. We start by presenting a brief overview of the field of GT. Consider $N$ items $\{x_i\}_{i=1}^N$ (also called 'samples' in many references), out of which only a small number $s \ll N$ are 'defective'. We consider the $i$ th item to be defective if $x_i = 1$ and non-defective if $x_i = 0$ . GT involves testing a certain number of 'pools' ( $m \ll N$ ) to identify the defective items from $\{x_i\}_{i=1}^N$ . Each pool (also called 'group') is created by mixing together or combining subsets of the $N$ items. Thus the $j$ th pool ( $j \in [m]$ ) is represented as $y_j = \bigvee_{i=1}^N A_{ji} x_i$ , where $\bigvee$ stands for bit-wise OR, and $\mathbf{A} \in \{0,1\}^{m \times N}$ is a binary pooling matrix where $A_{ji} = 1$ if the $i$ th item participates in the $j$ th pool and 0 otherwise. GT has a rich literature dating back to the seminal 'Dorfman's + +method' [20] which is a popular two-round testing strategy. In the first round of Dorfman's method, some $N / K$ pools, each consisting of $K$ items, are tested. The items that participated in pools that test negative (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain no defective item) are declared non-defective, whereas all items that participated in the positive pools (i.e., pools that are deemed to contain at least one defective item) are tested individually in the second round. Theoretical analysis shows that for $s \ll N$ , this method requires much fewer than $N$ tests in the worst case. This algorithm was extended to some $r$ rounds in [30], where positive groups are further divided into smaller groups, and individual testing is performed only in the $r$ th round. The methods in [20,30] are said to be adaptive in nature, as the results of one round are given as input to the next one. The GT literature also contains a large number of non-adaptive algorithms that make predictions in a single round. A popular algorithm is called COMP or combinatorial orthogonal matching pursuit, which declares all items participating in a negative pool to be negative, and all the rest to be positive [14]. Many variants of COMP such as Noisy COMP (NCOMP) or Definite Defectives (DD) are also popular [14]. A popular class of non-adaptive GT algorithms [23] draw heavily from the compressed sensing (CS) literature [17, 38]. Such algorithms can consider quantitative information for each $\{x_i\}_{i=1}^N$ so that each $x_i \in \mathbb{R}$ , and every pool $y_j$ also gives a real-valued result. The pooling matrix $\mathbf{A}$ remains binary, and we have the relation $\forall j \in [m], y_j = \sum_{i=1}^{N} A_{ji} x_i$ . Given $\{y_j\}_{j=1}^m$ and $\mathbf{A}$ , the unknown vector $\mathbf{x}$ can be recovered using efficient convex optimization methods such as the LASSO given by $\hat{\mathbf{x}} = \operatorname{Argmin}_\mathbf{x} \| \mathbf{y} - \mathbf{A}\mathbf{x} \|_2^2 + \lambda \| \mathbf{x} \|_1$ , where $\lambda$ is a regularization parameter [26]. As proved in [18, 26], the LASSO estimator produces provably accurate estimates of $\mathbf{x}$ given a sufficient number of measurements (or pools) in $\mathbf{y}$ and a carefully designed matrix $\mathbf{A}$ . + +Overview of our work: GT algorithms have been applied to the NN search problem recently in [21, 29, 36]. However in these papers, the nearest neighbor queries are of an approximate nature, i.e. the results may contain a number of vectors which are not near neighbors of the query vector $\mathbf{q}$ , and/or may miss some genuine near neighbors. On the other hand, we focus on accurate query results with good computational efficiency in practice. Our approach is based on an adaptive GT approach called binary splitting. Like existing GT based algorithms such as [21, 29, 36], our approach is also based on the assumption that in high-dimensional NN search, most vectors in the database $\mathcal{D}$ are dissimilar to a query vector $\mathbf{q}$ , and very few vectors qualify as near neighbors. However, our method does not require the distance between the most unrelated neighbor and the most closely related non-neighbor to be large, unlike [21]. Additionally, many existing approaches [1, 15, 16, 21, 24, 29, 33, 34, 36] require parameter tuning in a manner that is not fully data driven. It is also a tedious process for large databases, particularly when dealing with algorithms with large index building times. Moreover, algorithms with large index building times or those unable to efficiently handle the addition of new points are ill-suited for streaming settings. In this work, we present a range-based near neighbor search algorithm in high dimensions built on a group testing framework that has the following appealing + +properties for softmax-based feature descriptors: $(i)$ low index building time, $(ii)$ perfect precision and recall without exhaustive search, $(iii)$ no parameter tuning, $(iv)$ low time complexity $(\mathcal{O}(1))$ for addition of new vectors making the algorithm suitable for streaming tasks, and $(v)$ a unique method of incorporating distributional properties of the similarity values between query and database vectors into the search process. + +Organization of the paper: The core method is presented in Sec. 2. We present detailed analytical comparisons with existing GT-based techniques for NN search in Sec. 3. Experimental results and comparisons to a large number of recent NN search methods are presented in Sec. 4. A theoretical analysis of our approach is presented in Sec. 5. We conclude in Sec. 6. + +# 2 Description of Method + +In our technique, a pool of high-dimensional vectors is created by simply adding together the participating vectors, which may for example be (vectorized) images or features extracted from them. Consider a query vector $\pmb{q} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ and the database $\mathcal{D}$ consisting of $\{\pmb{f}_1, \pmb{f}_2, \dots, \pmb{f}_N\}$ where each $\pmb{f}_i \in \mathbb{R}^d$ . Throughout this paper, we consider the similarity measure $\mathrm{sim}(q, f_i) \triangleq q^t f_i$ . For simplicity, we consider the query vector $\pmb{q}$ as well as the vectors in $\mathcal{D}$ to be element-wise non-negative. This constraint is satisfied by images or their features based on ReLU or softmax nonlinearities (see the end of this section for a method to handle negative-valued descriptors). We also consider that the vectors in question have unit magnitude, without any loss of generality. Due to this, $q^t f_i$ acts as a cosine similarity measure. + +Our aim is to retrieve all 'defective' members of $\mathcal{D}$ , i.e. each member $\pmb{f_i}$ for which $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{f}_i \geq \rho$ , where $\rho$ is some pre-specified threshold. With this aim in mind, we aim to efficiently prune away any vector $\pmb{f_i}$ from $\mathcal{D}$ for which it is impossible to have $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{f}_i \geq \rho$ . Vector pooling using summations proves to be beneficial for this purpose. Consider the toy example of a pool $\pmb{y} = \pmb{f}_1 + \pmb{f}_2 + \pmb{f}_3 + \pmb{f}_4$ . If $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y} < \rho$ (i.e. the pooled result is negative), then one can clearly conclude that $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{f}_i < \rho$ for each $i \in \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$ . However if $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y} \geq \rho$ , i.e. it yields a positive result, then we need to do further work to identify the defective members (if any). For this, we split the original pool and create two pools $\pmb{y}_1$ and $\pmb{y}_2$ , each with approximately half the number of members of the original pool. We recursively compute $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_2$ and then obtain $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_1 = \pmb{q}^t\pmb{y} - \pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_2$ (where both $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}$ and $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_2$ have already been computed earlier, and hence $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_1$ is directly obtained from the difference between them). Thereafter, we proceed in a similar fashion for both branches. + +We now consider the case of searching within the entire database $\mathcal{D}$ defined earlier. We initiate this recursive process with a pool $y_{0}$ that is obtained from the summation of all $N$ vectors. If $y_{0}$ yields a positive result, we test the query vector with two pools: $y_{11}$ obtained from a summation of vectors $f_{1}$ through to $f_{\lfloor N / 2\rfloor}$ , and $y_{12}$ obtained from a summation of vectors $f_{\lfloor N / 2\rfloor +1}$ through to $f_{N}$ . If $y_{11}$ tests negative, then all its members are declared negative and no further tests are required on its members, which greatly reduces the total number of tests. + +If $y_{11}$ tests positive, then it is split into two pools $y_{21}, y_{22}$ with roughly equal number of members. Tests are carried out further on these two pools recursively. The same treatment is accorded to $y_{12}$ , which would be split into pools $y_{23}, y_{24}$ if it were to test positive. This recursive process stops when the pools obtained after splitting contain just a single vector each, in which case each such single vector is tested against $q$ . Clearly, the depth of this recursive process is $\lceil \log_2 N \rceil$ given $N$ vectors in $\mathcal{D}$ . This procedure is called binary splitting, and it is a multi-round adaptive group testing approach, applied here to NN search. For efficiency of implementation, it is important to be able to create the different pools such as $y_0, y_{11}, y_{12}, y_{21}, y_{22}, y_{23}, y_{24}$ , etc., efficiently. For this purpose, we maintain cumulative sums of the following form in memory: + +$$ +\tilde {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {1} = \boldsymbol {f} _ {1}, \tilde {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {2} = \tilde {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {1} + \boldsymbol {f} _ {2}, \dots , \tilde {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {N} = \tilde {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {N - 1} + \boldsymbol {f} _ {N}. \tag {1} +$$ + +The cumulative sums are useful for efficient creation of various pools. They are created purely offline, independent of any query vector. The pools are created using simple vector difference operations, given these cumulative sums. For example, notice that $\mathbf{y}_0 = \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_N$ , $\mathbf{y}_{11} = \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_{\lfloor N / 2\rfloor}$ and $\mathbf{y}_{12} = \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_N - \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_{\lfloor N / 2\rfloor}$ . The overall binary splitting procedure is presented in Alg. 1 (a schematic diagram is provided in [13]). For the sake of greater efficiency, it is implemented non-recursively using a simple stack data structure. This binary splitting approach is quite different from Dorfman's algorithm [20], which performs individual testing in the second round. Our approach is more similar to Hwang's generalized binary splitting approach, a GT procedure which was proposed in [27] (see also [8], Alg. 1.1 of [14]). However compared to Hwang's technique, our approach allows for creation of all pools either in a purely offline manner or with simple updates involving a single vector-subtraction operation (for example, $\mathbf{y}_{12} = \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_N - \widetilde{\mathbf{f}}_{\lfloor N / 2\rfloor}$ in the earlier example). On the other hand, the method in [27] detects defective one at a time, after going through all $\log_2N$ levels of recursion. Once a defective item is detected, it is discarded and all pools are created again. The entire set of $\log_2N$ levels of recursion are again executed. This process is repeated until all defectives have been detected and discarded one at a time. The method from [27] is computationally inefficient for high-dimensional NN search, as the pools must be created afresh for each level of recursion. This is because if a vector at index $i$ is discarded, all cumulative sums from index $i + 1$ to $N$ need to be updated. Such updates are not required in our method. We also emphasize that the techniques in [14,20,27,30] have all been applied only for binary GT and not for NN search (see the beginning of Sec. 5 for an important difference between binary GT and NN search). The binary splitting procedure saves on a large number of tests because in high dimensional search, we observe that most vectors in $\mathcal{D}$ are dissimilar to a given query vector $q$ , as will be demonstrated in Sec. 4. After the first round where pool $y_0$ is created, all other pools are essentially created randomly (since the initial arrangement of the vectors in $\mathcal{D}$ is random). As a result, across the different rounds, many pools test negative and are dropped out, especially in later rounds. In particular, we note that there is no loss of accuracy in this method, although we save on the number of tests by a factor more than ten on some large datasets (as will be shown in Sec. 4). + +Algorithm 1 Iterative Binary Splitting (see [13, Fig. 1] for a diagram) +1: $Fs\gets [\widetilde{f}_1,\widetilde{f}_2,\dots,\widetilde{f}_N]$ +2: $S$ -stack for storing triples $\{si,ei,sim\}$ where $si,ei$ are start and end index for a pool, sim $=$ dot product between query vector q and pool vector. +3: $Flg$ array of size $N$ flags, all 0's initially ( $0 =$ non-neighbor, $1 =$ neighbor of q) +4: S.push $\{1,N,q^t\widetilde{f}_N\}$ , i.e. $si = 1,ei = N$ +5: while S.size() $\neq 0$ do +6: $\{si,ei,sim\} \leftarrow S.top();S.pop()$ +7: if sim $\geq \rho$ then +8: $n\gets ei - si + 1$ +9: if $n > 2$ then +10: $rsim\gets q^{t}(\widetilde{fe}_{i} - \widetilde{fs}_{i + \lfloor n / 2\rfloor -1})$ $\triangleright$ testing right-half +11: S.push $\{si + \lfloor n / 2\rfloor ,ei,rsim\}$ ; push right branch onto stack +12: S.push $\{si,si + \lfloor n / 2\rfloor -1,sim - rsim\}$ ; push left branch onto stack +13: else +14: if $n = 2$ then +15: $rsim\gets q^{t}(\widetilde{fe}_{i} - \widetilde{fs}_{i})$ +16: set $Flg[ei] = 1$ , if $rsim\geq \rho$ +17: set $Flg[si] = 1$ , if sim-rsim $\geq \rho$ +18: else +19: $Flg[si] = 1$ $\triangleright$ Mark si a neighbor +20: end if +21: end if +22: end if +23: end while + +Pooling using Element-wise Maximum: We have so far described pool creation using vector summation.

Given a subset of vectors $\{\pmb{f}_k\}_{k=1}^K$ , such a pool $\pmb{y}_m$ is given by: $\forall j \in \{1,2,\dots,d\}, y_{m,j} = \max_j(f_{k,j})$ where $f_{k,j}$ stands for the $j$ th element of $\pmb{f}_k$ . We denote this operation as $\pmb{y}_m = \max(\{\pmb{f}_k\}_{k=1}^K)$ . If $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y}_m < \rho$ , it follows that $\pmb{q}^t\pmb{f}_k < \rho$ for every $\pmb{f}_k$ that contributed to $\pmb{y}_m$ . Hence pools created using an element-wise maximum are also well suited for iterative binary splitting in a similar fashion as in Alg. 1. Separate element-wise maximum vectors need to be stored in memory for each pool. In case of negative values in the query and/or database vectors, the element-wise maximum can be replaced by an element-wise minimum for every index $j$ for which $q_j < 0$ . Unlike the summation technique, this handles negative-valued descriptors, albeit at the cost of more memory in order to store both element-wise maximum and element-wise minimum values for each pool. + +# 3 Comparison to other Group Testing Methods for NN Search + +GT algorithms of different flavors have been applied to the NN search problem in [21, 29, 36]. A detailed description of these techniques is presented in the + +supplemental material at [13, Sec. 2]. Compared to these three afore-mentioned techniques, our method is exact, with the same accuracy as exhaustive search. The methods [21, 29, 36] require choice of various hyper-parameters ( $R$ , the number of backpropagation steps, for [36]; sparse coding parameters in [29]; bloom filter and hash function parameters ( $B, R, m, L$ ) in [21] - see [13, Sec. 2]) for which there is no clear data-driven selection procedure. Our method, however, requires no parameter tuning. In experiments, we have observed a speed up of more than ten-fold in querying time with our method as compared to exhaustive search on some datasets. Like [36], and unlike [21, 29], our method does have a large memory requirement, as we require all pools to be in memory. Some techniques such as [21] require the nearest neighbors to be significantly more similar than all other members of $\mathcal{D}$ (let us call this condition $\mathcal{C}1$ ). Our method does not have such a requirement. However, our method will perform more efficiently for queries for which a large number of similarity values turn out to be small, and only a minority are above the threshold $\rho$ (let us call this condition $\mathcal{C}2$ ). In our experimental study on diverse datasets, we have observed that $\mathcal{C}2$ is true always. On the other hand, $\mathcal{C}1$ does not hold true in a large number of cases, as also reported in [21, Sec. 5.3]. + +We also experimented with applying the latest developments in the compressed sensing (CS) literature [38] (which is closely related to GT) to the approximate NN search problem, albeit unsuccessfully. The theoretical reasons for the failure of the latest CS techniques for NN search are described in [13, Sec. 3]. + +# 4 Experimental Results + +In this section, we present experimental results conducted in two settings: $(i)$ Non-streaming setting with a static database, and $(ii)$ Streaming setting with incremental additions of new vectors to the database. In both the settings, we tested our algorithms on the following publicly available image datasets, of which the first two are widely used in retrieval and NN search problems: $(i)$ MIRFLICKR, a set of 1 million (1M) images from the MIRFLICKR dataset (subset of images from Flickr) available at [11], with an additional 6K images from the Paris dataset available at [12], as followed in [36]; $(ii)$ ImageNet, a set of 1M images used in the ImageNet Object Localization Challenge, available at [2]; $(iii)$ IMDB-Wiki, a set of all 500K images from the IMDB-Wiki face image dataset from [9]; $(iv)$ InstaCities, a set of 1M images of 10 large cities [10]. Although, we have worked with image datasets, our method is equally applicable to any other modalities such as speech, genomics, etc. + +In the following, we denote a query image by $I_{q}$ . For every dataset containing images $\{I_{i}\}_{i = 1}^{N}$ , feature vectors $\{f_i\}_{i = 1}^N$ were extracted as follows: First, each image $I_{i}$ was passed through the popular VGGNet [37] (as its features are known to be useful for building good perceptual metrics [39]) to obtain intermediate feature vector $f_{i}^{\prime}$ . Second, a softmax-based feature vector $f_{i}$ of dimension $d = 1000$ , corresponding to the 1000 classes in ImageNet, was extracted further from the VGGNet output vector $f_{i}^{\prime}$ . In our experiments, we observed + +that the softmax-based features yielded superior retrieval recall (defined as # points retrieved belonging to the same class as the query point / # points of the same class as the query point) as compared to the baseline VGGNet features, with exhaustive search on different datasets (see [13, Table 1] for more details), even on those datasets which are different from ImageNet. Higher recall is particularly beneficial for NN search application in scenarios such as image plagiarism detection. The feature vectors were all non-negative and were subsequently unit-normalized. For every dataset, NN search was carried out using different methods (see below) on the same unit-normalized feature vectors extracted from 10,000 query images. That is, the aim was to efficiently identify those indices $i \in \{1,2,\dots,N\}$ for which the dot products between $\mathbf{q}$ (the feature vector of query image $I_{\mathbf{q}}$ ) and $\mathbf{f}_i$ (both feature vectors unit-normalized) exceeded some specified threshold $\rho$ . For all datasets, the intrinsic dimensionality was computed using the number of singular values of the $d \times N$ data matrix that accounted for 99% of its Frobenius norm. The intrinsic dimensionality for all datasets was more than 200 (for $d = 1000$ ). + +Our binary splitting approach, using pool creation with summation (OUR-SUM) and element-wise maximum (OUR-MAX), was compared to the following recent and popular techniques: (i) Exhaustive search (ExH) through the entire database, for every query image; (ii) The recent GT-based technique from [21], known as FLINNG (Filters to Identify Near-Neighbor Groups), using code from [3]; (iii) The popular randomized KD-tree and K-means based technique FLANN for approximate NN search [33], using code from [7] with default parameters; (iv) The FALCONN technique from [15] which uses multi-probe LSH, using the code from [4]; (v) FALCONN++ [34], an enhanced version of FALCONN which filters out potentially distant points from any hash bucket before querying using code from [5]; (vi) IVF, the speedy inverted multi-index technique implemented in the highly popular FAISS library from Meta/Facebook [1, 16]; (vii) HNSW, a graph-based technique also used in [1]; (viii) The SCANN library [6, 24] which implements an anisotropic vector quantization (KMeans) algorithm. Our methods have no hyperparameters, but for all competing methods, results are reported by tuning hyperparameters so as to maximize the recall (defined below) - see [13, Sec. 5] for more details. + +We did not compare with the GT-based techniques from [36] and [29] as we could not find full publicly available implementations for these. Moreover, the technique from [21] is claimed to outperform those in [36] and [29]. We did implement the algorithm from [36], but it yielded significantly large query times. This may be due to subtle implementation differences in the way image lists are re-ranked in each of the $R$ iterations of their algorithm (see Sec. 3). In any case, our method produces $100\%$ recall and precision, unlike [29, 36]. + +Non-streaming Setting: The different methods are compared in terms of Mean Query Time (MQT), Mean Precision (MP) and Mean Recall (MR) for 10K queries as reported in Table 1. The similarity threshold $(\rho)$ chosen for this setting is 0.8. The recall is defined as as #true positives/ (#true positives + #false negatives). The precision is defined as # true positives/ (#true positives+ + +# false positives). For each dataset, we have also mentioned the average number of neighbours $(\hat{k})$ having similarity greater than $\rho = 0.8$ . The cumulative sums in Eqn. 1 for OUR-SUM and the cumulative element-wise maximums for OUR-MAX were computed offline. The query implementation was done in $\mathrm{C}++$ with the highest level of optimization in the $\mathrm{g}++$ compiler. The codes for FLINNG, FALCONN++, SCANN and HNSW operate in the KNN search mode, as opposed to a range-based query for OUR-SUM, OUR-MAX, FALCONN and IVF, for which we set $\rho = 0.8$ . The FLANN method has code support for both KNN and range-based queries, which we refer to as FLANN-K and FLANN-R respectively. For all KNN-based methods, we gave an appropriate $K$ as input, such that $K$ ground truth neighbors satisfy the similarity threshold of $\rho$ . The time taken to compute $K$ was not included in the query times reported for the KNN-based methods. All query times are reported for an Intel(R) Xeon(R) server with CPU speed 2.10GHz and 128 GB RAM. For all methods, the computed query times did not count the time taken to compute the feature vector for the query image. + +Streaming Setting: We now consider experiments in a streaming setting where new vectors are added to the database on the fly, i.e. the database is modified incrementally. In our experimental setting, $80\%$ of the full database was initially available to all algorithms for index creation. New points were incrementally added to the database, and after addition of 100 new points, a search query was fired. This process was carried out until the entire database was loaded into memory. The query images were created by introducing controlled perturbations such as dither and blur to images existing in the database (refer to [13] for more details). The similarity threshold for this setting is chosen to be $\rho = 0.9$ . Note that this setting is analogous to a typical image plagiarism detection setting, wherein (a) the database is updated with insertion of new points (without deletion) and requires fetching high similarity vectors, and (b) the submitted images could be subtly manipulated to escape plagiarism detection. High recall is desirable in such applications. + +The only update required to OUR-SUM for insertion of $n_s$ new points will be to produce $n_s$ extra cumulative sums as in Eqn. 1 for a cost of $O(dn_s)$ . For comparison, we have selected only those algorithms that include methods for the addition of new points without necessitating the rebuilding of the entire index from scratch. These include EXH, IVF, HNSW and FLANN-R. Table 2 reports the initial Index Build Time (IBT) for 80% of the database, Mean Insertion Time (MIT) for new points, besides MQT, MP and MR. + +Discussion of Results on Static Datasets (Table 1): We observe that OUR-SUM yields lower MQT on most datasets as compared to most other techniques, and that too with a guarantee of $100\%$ precision and recall. FALCONN produces higher query times than OUR-SUM or OUR-MAX and at the loss of some recall. FALCON++ produces $100\%$ precision and recall but with much higher query times than OUR-SUM or OUR-MAX. FLINNG and FLANN-K are efficient, but have significantly lower precision and recall than OUR-SUM with many of the retrieved dot products being significantly lower than the chosen $\rho$ . FLANN-R yields very low recall despite its excellent precision and query time. + +HNSW produces higher query times in cases where the number of neighbors is large with some loss of recall. The closest competitors to OUR-SUM are SCANN and IVF, but they do not guarantee $100\%$ precision and recall. In addition, we note that as reported in [24, Fig. 3a], the accuracy of the dot-products retrieved by SCANN will depend on the chosen bit-rate, i.e. the chosen number of cluster centers in KMeans, whereas OUR-SUM has no such dependencies or parameter choice. This is a major conceptual advantage of OUR-SUM over SCANN (also see the 'Streaming' setting below). As compared to exhaustive search, OUR-SUM produces a speed gain between 4 to 120 depending on the dataset. OUR-SUM outperforms OUR-MAX in terms of query time, but it is important note that OUR-MAX is capable of handling negative-valued descriptors, although we have not experimented with it in this paper. + +

Furthermore, the space taken for storing the index is only $O(Nd)$ in our method. Since OUR-SUM only has to compute cumulative sums for the newly inserted points, the index update time is very low when compared with other methods. FLANN-R consistently produces lower mean query times, but this comes at the cost of low recall and high insertion time, making it unusable for streaming applications.

However the same tree can be traversed in a level-wise manner, and each level of the tree represents one 'round' of binary splitting.) The corresponding histograms for $\rho \geq 0.7$ are plotted in Fig. 2 of [13], for OUR-SUM. As can be seen, a large number of rejections occur from round 14 onward in MIRFLICKR and InstaCities, from round 11 onward in ImageNet, and from round 16 onward in IMDB-Wiki. As a result, the MQT is lowest for ImageNet than for other datasets, and also much lower for MIRFLICKR and InstaCities than for IMDB-Wiki. A similar set of histograms are plotted for OUR-MAX in Fig. 3 of [13]. Furthermore, we plotted histograms of dot products between every query feature vector and every gallery feature vector, across 10,000 queries for all datasets. These are plotted in Fig. 1, clearly indicating that the vast majority of dot products lie in the bin (0,0.1] or (0.1,0.2] (also see Fig. 1 of [13], which shows negative logarithms of the histograms for clearer visualization of values close to 0). This supports the hypothesis that most items in $\mathcal{D}$ are dissimilar to a query vector. However, as seen in Fig. 1, the percentage of dot products in the (0,0.1] bin is much larger for ImageNet, MIRFLICKR and InstaCities than for IMDB-Wiki. This tallies with the significantly larger speedup obtained by binary splitting (both OUR-SUM and OUR-MAX) for ImageNet, MIRFLICKR and InstaCities as compared to IMDB-Wiki - see Table 1. + +# 5 Theoretical Analysis + +For the problem of binary GT, different variants of the binary splitting approach have been shown to require just $s \log_2 N + O(s)$ or $s \log_2 (N / s) + O(s)$ tests, depending on some implementation details [14, Theorems 1.2 and 1.3]. Here $s$ + +stands for the number of defectives out of $N$ . However in binary GT, a positive result on a pool necessarily implies that at least one of the participants was defective. In our application for NN search, a pool $\mathbf{y}$ can produce $q^t\mathbf{y} \geq \rho$ for query vector $\mathbf{q}$ , even if none of the vectors that contributed to $\mathbf{y}$ produce a dot product with $\mathbf{q}$ that exceeds or equals $\rho$ . Due to this important difference, the analysis from [14] does not apply in our situation. Furthermore, it is difficult to pin down a precise deterministic number of tests in our technique. Instead, we resort to a distributional assumption on each dot product $q^t\mathbf{f}_i$ . We assume that these dot products are independently distributed as per a truncated normalized exponential (TNE) distribution: + +$$ +p (x; \lambda) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \frac {\lambda e ^ {- \lambda x}}{1 - e ^ {- \lambda}}, \text {f o r} 0 \leq x \leq 1. \\ 0, \text {o t h e r w i s e .} \end{array} \right. \tag {2} +$$ + +This distribution is obtained by truncating the well-known exponential distribution to the $[0,1]$ range and normalizing it so that it integrates to one. Larger the value of $\lambda$ , the more rapid is the 'decay' in the probability of dot product values from 0 towards 1. Our empirical studies show that for softmax features, this is a reasonable model for dot product values commonly encountered in queries in image retrieval, as can be seen in Fig. 1 for all datasets we experimented with. Also, the best-fit $\lambda$ values for MIRFLICKR, ImageNet, IMDB-Wiki and InstaCities are respectively 34, 57, 10, 30. The TNE model fit may not be perfect, but less than perfect adherence to the TNE model does not change the key message that will be conveyed in this section. + +Our aim now is to determine the probability that a pool $\mathbf{y}$ with some $L$ participating vectors will produce a dot product value $\mathbf{q}^t\mathbf{y}$ below a threshold $\rho$ . Note again that such a pool will get pruned away in binary splitting, and therefore we would like this probability to be high. Now, the $L$ individual dot-products (of $\mathbf{q}$ with vectors that contributed to $\mathbf{y}$ ) are independent and they are all distributed as per the TNE from Eqn. 2. The mean and variance of a TNE variable with parameter $\lambda$ are respectively given by $\left(1 / \lambda + 1 / (1 - e^{\lambda})\right)$ and $\left(1 / \lambda^2 - e^{\lambda} / (e^{\lambda} - 1)^2\right)$ . We now apply the central limit theorem (CLT), due to which we can conclude that $\mathbf{q}^t\mathbf{y}$ is (approximately) Gaussian distributed with a mean $\mu \triangleq L\left(1 / \lambda + 1 / (1 - e^{\lambda})\right)$ and variance $\sigma^2 \triangleq L\left(1 / \lambda^2 - e^{\lambda} / (e^{\lambda} - 1)^2\right)$ . With this, we can easily compute $P(\mathbf{q}^t\mathbf{y} \leq \rho)$ given a value of $L$ and $\rho$ . Our numerical experiments, illustrated in Fig. 3 of [13], reveal that this probability increases with $\lambda$ and decreases as $L$ increases. This tallies with intuition, and supports the hypothesis that a larger number of pools will be pruned away in a given round if there is more rapid decrease in the probability of dot product values from 0 to 1. + +We are now equipped to determine the expected number of tests (dot products) to be computed per query, given such a TNE distribution for the dot products. Given a value of $\rho$ , let us denote the probability that a pool with $L$ participants will get pruned away, by $p_L(\rho)$ . For OUR-SUM, for any $L \geq 6$ , the probability $p_L(\rho)$ is computed using the TNE and CLT based method described + +![](images/14192e4a5dccb61294689e51aaa7c6929272944884be2aba0845ae2e46ebd88b.jpg) + +![](images/3e564166b1ea154e28340fcf343df19886e168c3036cb2293043a5f057e4b8b2.jpg) + +![](images/7b3d917770282117b5e68029ecb42d31164aed7dc6d1aef593c4f5399ae2799b.jpg) +Fig. 1: Normalized histograms (bar graphs in blue), and best-fit exponential distribution approximations (red curves), of dot products between feature vectors of query images (10,000 in number) and all images of MIRFLICKR, ImageNet, IMDB-Wiki and InstaCities databases (left to right, top to bottom).

For $L < 6$ , the Gaussian distribution can be replaced by a truncated Erlang distribution, as the sum of independent exponential random variables follows an Erlang distribution. Even in this case, $P(\pmb{q}^t\pmb{y} \leq \rho)$ increases with $\lambda$ and decreases with $L$ . + +In round 1, there is only one pool and it contains all $N$ vectors. It will get pruned away with probability $p_N(\rho)$ , for a given fixed threshold $\rho$ and fixed $\lambda$ . The expected number of pools in round 2 will be $Q_2 \triangleq 2(1 - p_N(\rho))$ , each of which will be pruned away with probability $p_{N/2}(\rho)$ . The factor 2 is because each pool gets split into two before sending it to the next round of binary splitting. The expected number of pools in round 3 will be $Q_3 \triangleq 2(1 - p_{N/2}(\rho))Q_2$ . Likewise, in the $k$ th round, the expected number of pools is $Q_k = 2(1 - p_{N/2^{k-2}}(\rho))Q_{k-1}$ . Hence the expected number of tests per query in our approach will be given by: + +$$ +E (\rho) \triangleq 1 + \frac {1}{2} \sum_ {i = 2} ^ {\lceil \log_ {2} N + 1 \rceil} Q _ {i}, \tag {3} +$$ + +as there are at most $\lceil \log_2N + 1\rceil$ rounds. The factor $\frac{1}{2}$ is due to the fact that the number of tests (i.e. dot product computations) is always half the number of pools (see second para. of Sec. 2). The value of $E(\rho)$ decreases with $\lambda$ as $p_N(\rho), p_{N/2}(\rho), \ldots, p_{N/2^{k-2}}(\rho)$ all increase with $\lambda$ . A similar analysis for OUR-MAX is presented in [13, Sec. 4]. + +Our theoretical analysis depends on $\lambda$ , but note that our algorithm is completely ag- nostic to $\lambda$ and does not use it in any manner. For values of $\rho \in \{0.7, 0.8, 0.9\}$ , we compared the theoretically predicted average number of dot products $(E(\rho))$ to the experimentally observed number for all datasets. These are presented in Tab. 3, where we observe that for MIRFLICKR, ImageNet and InstaCities, the theoretical number for OUR-SUM is generally greater than the empirical one. This is because the dot products for these datasets decay slightly faster than what is predicted by a TNE distribution, as can be seen in Fig. 1. Conversely, for IMDB-Wiki, the theoretical number for OUR-SUM is less than the empirical one because the dot products decay slower for this dataset than what is predicted by a TNE distribution. For OUR-MAX, the difference between empirical and theoretical values is larger, as explain in [13]. + +

Our method outperforms exhaustive search by a large factor in terms of query time without losing accuracy, on datasets where query vectors are dissimilar to the vast majority of vectors in the gallery. The larger the percentage of dissimilar vectors, the greater is the speedup our algorithm will produce. Our technique has no tunable parameters. It is also easily applicable to situations where new vectors are dynamically added to an existing gallery, without requiring any expensive updates. Apart from this, our technique also has advantages in terms of accuracy of query results (especially recall) over many recent, state of the art methods. A significant limitation of our method is that it currently only supports cosine distances and is applicable only to databases with a sharp decay in feature similarity distribution, as in the case with softmax features. At present, a pool may produce a large dot product value with a query vector, even though many or even all the members of the pool are dissimilar to the query vector. Developing techniques to reduce the frequency of such situations, possibly using various LSH techniques, as well as testing on billion-scale datasets, are important avenues for future work.

This work presents an adaptive group testing framework for the range-based high dimensional near neighbor search problem. Our method efficiently marks each item in a database as neighbor or non-neighbor of a query point, based on a cosine distance threshold without exhaustive search. Like other methods for large scale retrieval, our approach exploits the assumption that most of the items in the database are unrelated to the query. Unlike other methods, it does not assume a large difference between the cosine similarity of the query vector with the least related neighbor and that with the least unrelated non-neighbor. Following a multi-stage adaptive group testing algorithm based on binary splitting, we divide the set of items to be searched into half at each step, and perform dot product tests on smaller and smaller subsets, many of which we are able to prune away. We experimentally show that, using softmax-based features, our method achieves a more than ten-fold speed-up over exhaustive search with no loss of accuracy, on a variety of large datasets. Based on empirically verified models for the distribution of cosine distances, we present a theoretical analysis of the expected number of distance computations per query and the probability that a pool with a certain number of members will be pruned. Our method has the following features: (i) It implicitly exploits useful distributional properties of cosine distances unlike other methods; (ii) All required data structures are created purely offline; (iii) It does not impose any strong assumptions on the number of true near neighbors; (iv) It is adaptable to streaming settings where new vectors are dynamically added to the database; and (v) It does not require any parameter tuning. The high recall of our technique makes it particularly suited to plagiarism detection scenarios where it is important to report every database item that is sufficiently similar item to the query." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 574, + 424, + 586 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 574, + 424, + 586 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 574, + 424, + 586 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: near neighbor search, group testing, image retrieval" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 605, + 230, + 618 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 605, + 230, + 618 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 605, + 230, + 618 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 629, + 482, + 667 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 629, + 482, + 667 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 629, + 482, + 667 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Near neighbor (NN) search is a fundamental problem in machine learning, computer vision, image analysis and recommender systems.

One of the major contributions in this area is called Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) [28]. Here, a hashing function partitions the dataset into buckets, such that only close vectors are likely to be hashed to the same bucket. The LSH family of algorithms consists of many variants such as those involving multiple buckets per query vector, data-driven or machine learning based construction of LSH functions [15, 19], and count-based methods [31]. In general, LSH based methods are difficult to implement for very high dimensions owing to the curse of dimensionality in constructing effective hash tables. Dimensionality reduction algorithms can mitigate this issue to some extent, but they are themselves expensive to implement and incur some inevitable data loss. There is also significant research in graph-based methods for nearest neighbor (NN) search, as explored in [22,25,32]. These methods typically achieve high accuracy and efficient query times. However, they often need relatively high pre-processing times, making them less suitable for dynamic datasets that require frequent addition of new points. In addition, various randomized variants of KD-trees and priority search K-means trees have been investigated for efficient approximate NN search in high-dimensional spaces, as seen in [35] and [33]. Despite their efficiency, these approaches involve numerous parameters, which can complicate tuning, especially for large datasets." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Overview of Group Testing: In this work, we present a group testing (GT) based approach for the NN problem.

Many variants of COMP such as Noisy COMP (NCOMP) or Definite Defectives (DD) are also popular [14].

However, our method does not require the distance between the most unrelated neighbor and the most closely related non-neighbor to be large, unlike [21]. Additionally, many existing approaches [1, 15, 16, 21, 24, 29, 33, 34, 36] require parameter tuning in a manner that is not fully data driven. It is also a tedious process for large databases, particularly when dealing with algorithms with large index building times. Moreover, algorithms with large index building times or those unable to efficiently handle the addition of new points are ill-suited for streaming settings.

The overall binary splitting procedure is presented in Alg. 1 (a schematic diagram is provided in [13]). For the sake of greater efficiency, it is implemented non-recursively using a simple stack data structure. This binary splitting approach is quite different from Dorfman's algorithm [20], which performs individual testing in the second round. Our approach is more similar to Hwang's generalized binary splitting approach, a GT procedure which was proposed in [27] (see also [8], Alg. 1.1 of [14]). However compared to Hwang's technique, our approach allows for creation of all pools either in a purely offline manner or with simple updates involving a single vector-subtraction operation (for example, " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 270, + 482, + 668 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\mathbf{y}_{12} = \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_N - \\widetilde{\\mathbf{f}}_{\\lfloor N / 2\\rfloor}" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 270, + 482, + 668 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " in the earlier example).

We also emphasize that the techniques in [14,20,27,30] have all been applied only for binary GT and not for NN search (see the beginning of Sec. 5 for an important difference between binary GT and NN search).

Our method outperforms exhaustive search by a large factor in terms of query time without losing accuracy, on datasets where query vectors are dissimilar to the vast majority of vectors in the gallery. The larger the percentage of dissimilar vectors, the greater is the speedup our algorithm will produce. Our technique has no tunable parameters. It is also easily applicable to situations where new vectors are dynamically added to an existing gallery, without requiring any expensive updates. Apart from this, our technique also has advantages in terms of accuracy of query results (especially recall) over many recent, state of the art methods. A significant limitation of our method is that it currently only supports cosine distances and is applicable only to databases with a sharp decay in feature similarity distribution, as in the case with softmax features. At present, a pool may produce a large dot product value with a query vector, even though many or even all the members of the pool are dissimilar to the query vector. Developing techniques to reduce the frequency of such situations, possibly using various LSH techniques, as well as testing on billion-scale datasets, are important avenues for future work.

Group portrait editing is highly desirable since users constantly want to add a person, delete a person, or manipulate existing persons.

The training data engine covers the diverse needs of group portrait editing. 2) Appearance Preservation: To keep the appearance consistent after editing, we inject the images of persons from the group photo into the attention modules and employ skeletons to provide intra-person guidance. 3) Control Flexibility: Bounding boxes indicating the locations of each person are used to reweight the attention matrix so that the features of each person can be injected into the correct places. This interperson guidance provides flexible manners for manipulation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GroupDiff exhibits state-of-the-art performance compared to existing methods.

How to generate the training data fitting the natural distribution of group portrait editing is a difficult problem. Secondly, maintaining the appearance of individuals during the editing process is a formidable challenge. Users do not want the appearance to be changed, such as clothing be changed after editing.

As for full-body editing, it mainly includes two directions: pose transfer and virtual try-on. The objective of pose transfer [3, 31, 32, 34-36] is to seamlessly transpose the visual characteristics of an individual from one pose to another. Albahar et al. [1] introduces a pose-conditioned StyleGAN framework in which the source image is warped to align with the target pose. The warping is operated according to the correspondence between the source pose and the target pose. The warped image is then employed to modulate the features. Try-on tasks aim to transfer the clothing of the person from one image to the other image. Traditional Try-on methods [5, 11, 19, 59] mainly focus on warping the clothing to the target person. Baldrati et al. [4] and Zhu et al. [66] propose to address the problem under the setting of diffusion models. Kulal et al.

Recently, since the emergence of newer generative models, e.g. diffusion models and VQGAN models [9, 54], researchers propose to solve the task using languages [39, 55, 58]. RealFill [53] learns LoRA weights [18] to inpaint the background regions from reference images.

Group portrait editing is highly desirable since users constantly want to add a person, delete a person, or manipulate existing persons. It is also challenging due to the intricate dynamics of human interactions and the diverse gestures. In this work, we present GroupDiff, a pioneering effort to tackle group photo editing with three dedicated contributions: 1) Data Engine: Since there are no labeled data for group photo editing, we create a data engine to generate paired data for training. The training data engine covers the diverse needs of group portrait editing. 2) Appearance Preservation: To keep the appearance consistent after editing, we inject the images of persons from the group photo into the attention modules and employ skeletons to provide intra-person guidance. 3) Control Flexibility: Bounding boxes indicating the locations of each person are used to reweight the attention matrix so that the features of each person can be injected into the correct places. This interperson guidance provides flexible manners for manipulation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GroupDiff exhibits state-of-the-art performance compared to existing methods.

More specifically, we target the unique problem in group portrait editing, i.e., the synthesis of human interactions when we perform person insertion, person removal, and person manipulation, as shown in Fig. 1.

How to generate the training data fitting the natural distribution of group portrait editing is a difficult problem. Secondly, maintaining the appearance of individuals during the editing process is a formidable challenge. Users do not want the appearance to be changed, such as clothing be changed after editing.

To maintain the appearance of the persons including the inserted person and the persons in the original photo, we propose an appearance preservation diffusion model which contains person-aware modules customized on attention layers. By taking the person(s) that the user wants to be kept as reference image(s), this model takes both inter-person and intra-person features when injecting the references into the editing process.

As for full-body editing, it mainly includes two directions: pose transfer and virtual try-on. The objective of pose transfer [3, 31, 32, 34-36] is to seamlessly transpose the visual characteristics of an individual from one pose to another. Albahar et al. [1] introduces a pose-conditioned StyleGAN framework in which the source image is warped to align with the target pose. The warping is operated according to the correspondence between the source pose and the target pose. The warped image is then employed to modulate the features. Try-on tasks aim to transfer the clothing of the person from one image to the other image. Traditional Try-on methods [5, 11, 19, 59] mainly focus on warping the clothing to the target person. Baldrati et al. [4] and Zhu et al. [66] propose to address the problem under the setting of diffusion models. Kulal et al.

Group portrait editing is highly desirable since users constantly want to add a person, delete a person, or manipulate existing persons. It is also challenging due to the intricate dynamics of human interactions and the diverse gestures. In this work, we present GroupDiff, a pioneering effort to tackle group photo editing with three dedicated contributions: 1) Data Engine: Since there are no labeled data for group photo editing, we create a data engine to generate paired data for training. The training data engine covers the diverse needs of group portrait editing. 2) Appearance Preservation: To keep the appearance consistent after editing, we inject the images of persons from the group photo into the attention modules and employ skeletons to provide intra-person guidance. 3) Control Flexibility: Bounding boxes indicating the locations of each person are used to reweight the attention matrix so that the features of each person can be injected into the correct places. This interperson guidance provides flexible manners for manipulation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GroupDiff exhibits state-of-the-art performance compared to existing methods. GroupDiff offers controllability for editing and maintains the fidelity of the original photos. + +Keywords: Group Photo Editing $\cdot$ Diffusion Models + +# 1 Introduction + +Have you ever been bothered by the challenge of capturing the perfect group photo, especially during significant occasions like team-building events, family reunions, or friend gatherings? Group portrait photos become a crucial means of preserving cherished memories. Imagine this scenario, an individual must unexpectedly leave an important reunion party before the group photo is taken due to an emergency. How valuable would it be to have a tool that seamlessly + +![](images/6225682bd0eb00262747ceac6d2afdad2bfeb0cc3813768f277edd07fdcc7de2.jpg) + +![](images/57d2dc931dcbd3666240d849a42add400596fa6ee54383f51ca8c053f8f8e562.jpg) +Fig. 1: Applications enabled by our GroupDiff. Given a group photo, we can (a) manipulate the existing person, (b) remove a person, and (c) insert a person. + +adds the missing person to the photo later? Group portrait editing addresses precisely this need and more. However, as a broad topic covering various operations, group portrait editing is not an easy task with many factors that need to be considered, such as human identity, interaction, and diverse gestures. It is a difficult and tedious process even for experts with design experience and knowledge. + +However, the manipulation of group photos is challenging for two reasons: 1) the generation of the single-person image is difficult because of the complicated human structures, and 2) the generation of human interaction regions. How to generate individual persons and their interactions naturally is an unsolved problem. In this work, we take the initial step to tackle this hard problem. More specifically, we target the unique problem in group portrait editing, i.e., the synthesis of human interactions when we perform person insertion, person removal, and person manipulation, as shown in Fig. 1. As personal features like facial expressions and pose orientation can be adjusted by single human editing methods [3, 31, 32, 34-36, 46, 47], our work builds on the assumption that both the initial group portrait photo and the inserted person are with satisfied facial expressions and facing orientations. + +To facilitate a more general setting, we aim to develop a unified framework handling three main group photo editing tasks (i.e., manipulation of existing per + +son, person removal, and person insertion). We propose to perform group photo editing by generating reasonable interaction regions. Given an initial group portrait photo with masked regions indicating the intersection areas to be edited, and reference image(s) of the nearby person(s), we learn to seamlessly hallucinate the human interaction in a natural way while maintaining the identities of individuals. With the well-established generation power of diffusion models [44,50], we choose to build our method on top of the pre-trained diffusion model [44]. + +However, our task still poses several unique challenges. Firstly, collecting a large set of paired training data with before-after editing is infeasible. While several works [25, 53] take the synthetic way to generate the data, they mainly work on single-person editing without considering complex human compositions and interactions. How to generate the training data fitting the natural distribution of group portrait editing is a difficult problem. Secondly, maintaining the appearance of individuals during the editing process is a formidable challenge. Users do not want the appearance to be changed, such as clothing be changed after editing. Besides, group photos often include multiple persons, and how to correctly map the reference appearance to the target person is a remaining problem. Lastly, providing users with the flexibility to specify the desired interactions according to their preferences is essential. + +To this end, we propose GroupDiff, a new approach for tackling group portrait editing tasks. For the issue of lacking large-scale before-after editing data, we propose a training data generation engine that mimics the editing requirements encountered in real-world applications of group photo editing. Many factors have been considered, such as the interaction ways, the body parts' appearances, and the poses. To maintain the appearance of the persons including the inserted person and the persons in the original photo, we propose an appearance preservation diffusion model which contains person-aware modules customized on attention layers. By taking the person(s) that the user wants to be kept as reference image(s), this model takes both inter-person and intra-person features when injecting the references into the editing process. This module can tackle the challenge posed by multiple persons through an indicator matrix, indicating the locations of each person and thus precise attention guidance. Additionally, we take the skeleton as an intermediate representation throughout our framework design, ensuring flexibility and controllability for users. Experiments show that our proposed GroupDiff achieves state-of-the-art performance in the task of group portrait editing. Our contributions are summarized as follows: + +- We work on a challenging task of Group Portrait Editing and make the first effort to solve it in a unified framework by generating interaction regions. +- We propose a novel framework (GroupDiff) that includes person-aware modules specifically designed to maintain the appearance of reference persons, considering both inter-person and intra-person features. +- We introduce a simple yet effective data synthesis method to get paired data for GroupDiff training. +- We demonstrate the flexibility of our model on various applications such as person insertion, person removal, and interaction editing. + +# 2 Related Work + +Single-Human Editing. There are two major directions for single-human editing: facial editing and full-body editing. For facial editing, the target is to manipulate the facial attributes, e.g., age manipulation [57, 62], hair synthesis [41, 60] and expression manipulation [23, 26, 27, 46, 47, 56]. As for full-body editing, it mainly includes two directions: pose transfer and virtual try-on. The objective of pose transfer [3, 31, 32, 34-36] is to seamlessly transpose the visual characteristics of an individual from one pose to another. Albahar et al. [1] introduces a pose-conditioned StyleGAN framework in which the source image is warped to align with the target pose. The warping is operated according to the correspondence between the source pose and the target pose. The warped image is then employed to modulate the features. Try-on tasks aim to transfer the clothing of the person from one image to the other image. Traditional Try-on methods [5, 11, 19, 59] mainly focus on warping the clothing to the target person. Baldrati et al. [4] and Zhu et al. [66] propose to address the problem under the setting of diffusion models. Kulal et al. [25] study the single human editing task under the human-environment interactive setting. They propose a method to insert a person into the place. Different from previous works, our paper focuses on group portrait editing, where the interactions and compositions among persons need to be carefully handled. + +Inpainting. Image inpainting is an ill-posed problem, which aims to fill in the masked regions using meaningful content. Patch-based methods [8, 13] perform the inpainting by finding the nearest matched patch and then placing them into the holes in a proper way. GAN-based methods [20, 29, 30, 38, 43] often use the high-level information extracted by the networks and then use the extracted features to guide the inpainting. Recently, since the emergence of newer generative models, e.g. diffusion models and VQGAN models [9, 54], researchers propose to solve the task using languages [39, 55, 58]. RealFill [53] learns LoRA weights [18] to inpaint the background regions from reference images. However, these methods are not designed for human-specific inpainting tasks, and they do not consider the specific human priors, such as human poses, and do not have modules specifically for human appearance preservation. + +Diffusion Models. Diffusion models have demonstrated the capability of generating images [15,49,51]. Recently, since the emergence of Stable Diffusion [44], it has dominated the field of image generation, especially for text-to-image generation [2,67]. Apart from texts, ControlNet [64] proposes to introduce multi-modal controls, such as skeleton, sketch, depth maps etc. Stable Diffusion is also applied to some image editing tasks [23,26,27]. Some editing methods [14,37] achieve image editing by modifying the cross-attention maps. Diffusion models have been also widely applied in multiple tasks including video generation [12,17,48], image enhancement [16,45] and image composition [6,33,52,63] To take advantage of the generation power of diffusion models, our work also builds on top of this learning framework. + +# 3 Preliminaries + +Stable Diffusion is based on diffusion models, a kind of probabilistic model. Diffusion models generate images by iterative denoising from a noise map, which is normally sampled from the Gaussian distribution. Given a Gaussian noise map $\mathbf{x}_T\sim \mathcal{N}(\mathbf{0},\mathbf{I})$ , the reverse diffusion process for sampling is expressed as follows: + +$$ +p _ {\theta} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {0: T}\right) := p \left(\mathbf {x} _ {T}\right) \prod_ {t = 1} ^ {T} p _ {\theta} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t - 1} \mid \mathbf {x} _ {t}\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +p _ {\theta} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t - 1} \mid \mathbf {x} _ {t}\right) := \mathcal {N} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t - 1}; \boldsymbol {\mu} _ {\theta} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t\right), \boldsymbol {\Sigma} _ {\theta} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t\right)\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\theta$ is often parameterized using a trained network, and $t$ is the denoising timestep. + +Traditional diffusion model [15] operates on the pixel space. Due to the high computational cost of generating high-resolution images, the generative capability of the diffusion model is limited to low-resolution images. Stable Diffusion [44] proposes to use the VAE to project the image from pixel space to latent space. With the downscaled latent representations, the model can synthesize high-resolution images. Also, Stable Diffusion introduces texts as a condition and supports text-to-image generation. In Stable Diffusion, $\theta$ is parameterized as a UNet with multiple self-attention modules and cross-attention modules. In each block, a self-attention module is followed by a cross-attention module. In the cross-attention module, the features $f$ are updated as follows: + +$$ +f ^ {\prime} = \operatorname {s o f t m a x} \left(\frac {Q K ^ {T}}{\sqrt {d}}\right) V, \tag {3} +$$ + +$$ +K = \phi_ {K} (f _ {t}), V = \phi_ {V} (f _ {t}), Q = \phi_ {Q} (f), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $f_{t}$ is the text embedding, $\phi_K, \phi_V$ , and $\phi_Q$ are the linear layers to project the features into keys, values, and queries respectively. + +# 4 GroupDiff + +In this paper, we propose a unified framework, named GroupDiff, for group portrait editing. We formulate the problem as a conditional inpainting task. As shown in Fig. 2, when inserting a person, we need to inpaint the interaction regions and the missing human parts. As for removing a person, if the original person shakes their hands, we also need to inpaint the interaction region and the removed part. To better guide the synthesis of interaction regions and offer controllability to users, we introduce the skeleton as an additional condition. For person addition, with pose controls, we can explicitly manipulate the pose of the inserted person and the neighboring person, so that their interactions are natural. As for person removal, we also need to change the pose of the existing person to make it to be natural, if there are some human interactions between the removed + +![](images/765b0584445b01016cb40ae0327ec561dd9aa2bd2673b2adcd4157c427890200.jpg) +(a) insertion + +![](images/f7fc0a98c443d9153676c7c94011921511cc0eac232d3a8b8966527b6112e03c.jpg) +(b) deletion +Fig.2: Illustration of Common Editing Requests.

Starting from a group photo from the dataset, we first use the training data generation pipeline (Sec. 4.1) to generate paired data. Then the synthesized pair is fed into the Appearance Preservation Diffusion Model (Sec. 4.2), where inter-person and intra-person guidance are employed to preserve the identities. + +person and existing persons. The overview of our proposed GroupDiff is shown in Fig. 3. We tackle the problem of group photo editing from two perspectives. From the data side, we propose a comprehensive training data generation engine to synthesize paired data, which will be introduced in Sec. 4.1. From the model side, we take the stable diffusion as the backbone [44]. Except for the noisy map, our model also takes an input image masked with the region to be filled, the corresponding mask, and the target skeleton map as inputs. These inputs are concatenated together before feeding them to the network. The masked region is filled with gray color. The skeleton map offers the user an option to specify the desired human interaction. As the masked region often covers the area that should remain the same after editing, such as the clothing and skin color, our model also takes the reference images of persons as conditions. Each reference person is given as a separate image. The reference images can be the inserted person or nearby persons around the interaction regions. We inject the reference images through intra-person and inter-person guidance to let the model learn to keep the appearance details after editing. + +# 4.1 Training Data Generation Engine + +The training of diffusion-based models requires large-scale paired data. However, there is no such dataset for group photo editing. Given the difficulties of con + +ducting group portrait photo editing, collecting a large amount of before-after editing data is infeasible. Therefore, finding a way to generate pairwise data to support the training is demanded. Since we pose our task as an inpainting task, we start from the existing group photo dataset [28, 40, 65]. Considering the real use cases, we design a comprehensive training data generation engine. + +Person Interaction. Person interactions encompass a diverse set of gestures that form the essence of social dynamics including physical interactions, such as hugging, shaking hands, and raising arms, and many others. These free-form interactions increase difficulties in approximating the real distribution. Besides, different editing operations may incur different challenges. For example, when adding a person into the crowd, the surrounding context also should be completed, such as the area above the person's head. To enforce our model to better generate diverse interactions under different conditions, we use a hierarchical way for synthesizing paired data by randomly masking corresponding regions in group photo images. The coarser scale targets scenarios of large modification such as person insertion and removal, which requires inpainting a large region(Fig. 4). The finer scale targets scenarios of small modification such as interaction manipulation, which needs more fine-grained controls of masked regions(Fig. 5). + +On a coarser scale, we first identify different persons through labeled bounding boxes. We assume that the interaction regions are often near the boundary of each bonding box. During training, we randomly select single or multiple bounding boxes and mask out the region near the boundary. Suppose the coordinate of the top-left point of the bounding box is $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and the right-bottom point is $(x_{2},y_{2})$ . Then the width of the bounding box is $w = x_{2} - x_{1}$ . Then the left boundary region of the bounding box can be denoted as the rectangle with $(x_{1} - r\cdot w,y_{1})$ as the top-left corner and $(x_{1} + r\cdot w,y_{2})$ as the right-bottom corner. The right boundary of the bounding box can be obtained in a similar way. We simply treat the boundary regions as the interaction regions. When synthesizing data, we will randomly mask the left boundary, right boundary, or both boundaries. Empirically, we randomly sample $r$ from [0.1, 0.2]. As shown in the second image in Fig. 4, we mask both boundary regions. Sometimes, we extend the mask outside the bounding box to cover the whole column of the boundary region as shown in the third image of Fig. 4. That is to set the top-left coordinate as $(x_{1} - r\cdot w,0)$ and the right-bottom coordinate as $(x_{1} + r\cdot w,h)$ , where $h$ is the height of the image. To avoid facial regions being masked, we use human parsing to unmask the facial regions. To make the shape of the mask closer to the users' inputs, we also augment the shape of the mask into a brush-like one. + +On a finer scale, we introduce the skeleton to control the person interaction, especially for the hand and arm positions. Involving the skeleton helps users to better specify the desired human interaction. The correctness of the skeleton is important to ensure the data generation quality, we use the state-of-the-art skeleton detection method [7] for extraction. A naive way of generating the mask is to segment out the arm and hand regions with a tight bounding box. However, this simple solution has a critical problem as the mask shape itself will leak the skeleton information. For example, in Fig. 5, if we strictly follow the skeleton, we + +![](images/111ec1eb68193ab9e9df79bbac2394a874e47163f98e15685929445d2e0d406c.jpg) + +![](images/f7f2e4a23795d235a5b5d40e39c696d2c17ca818581a7dc34ea25ee6378e146e.jpg) + +![](images/7129f4858be72a3478146364fd3bb8dd146030c36add6653f1088eb7878c38c4.jpg) +Fig.4: Coarse Level Training Data Generation for Person Interaction.

At the fine level, we generate masks according to the skeleton and augmented skeleton. + +can obtain the masked image as shown in the second column. In this case, the model may overlook the skeleton condition during training because the masked image itself has leaked the skeleton information. As a result, the obtained model fails to generate images conditioned on skeletons at inference time. Therefore, we adopt data augmentations to avoid this issue. Except for the tight bounding box mask around arms and hands, we randomly rotate the arms or hands in a different direction. As shown in the third column of Fig. 5, we randomly rotate the right arm and obtain the augmented skeleton. We mask both arm regions according to the original skeleton and augmented skeleton. + +Body completion. In certain scenarios, our model also needs to complete the body part(s) of a person. For example, when there are occlusions among different persons, removing one person needs the body completion of the surrounding people. When inserting a person, if the reference image only contains a partial body, in this case, the model needs to learn to complete the rest parts. The data synthesis for the body completion is straightforward. We randomly mask out the lower body parts. Still, $(x_{1},y_{1})$ represents the top-left point of the bounding box and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ represents the right-bottom point. We randomly mask the region from $(x_{1},y_{1} + r\cdot (y_{2} - y_{1})$ to $(x_{2},y_{2})$ , where $r$ is sampled from [0.5, 0.9]. Some examples are shown in Fig. 6. + +# 4.2 Person-Aware Attention for Appearance Preservation + +Our model needs to preserve the appearance of persons after editing. Since the content cannot be revealed if it is covered with masks during inference, we take the persons that users want to maintain the appearance out as reference images. To ensure details are encoded into the model accurately, inspired by previous works [6,25], we choose to inject reference image(s) through the cross-attention module. The reference images during the training are obtained as follows: 1) + +![](images/8794a1ddeb953fb0cd23fdc18e3ca5c888d94a849c1e8617edf16bffbba881a6.jpg) +Fig.6: Training Data Generation for Body Completion. We randomly mask the lower parts of the body so that the model has the capability of body completion. + +![](images/f56eda2ff0ae07af8eb22c01b2f7c97cf3ef971dd052b70b4426a25cfbe709a6.jpg) +Fig. 7: Overview of Person-Aware Attention Module for Appearance Preservation. We employ intra-person guidance and inter-person guidance to better preserve the appearance. The intra-person guidance concatenates the pose features and image features as keys. The inter-person guidance is provided by using the information deduced from the positions of the persons. The indicator matrix is employed to assign higher weights to corresponding values in the attention matrix. + +segment the person(s), and 2) fill the background with white. However, feeding all reference images through concatenation to the model like previous methods does not work in our case. This can cause a mismatch problem between the reference and target persons because the attention matrix is applied among query features and features of all reference images. The model will confuse which part to attend if multiple reference images are provided. We thus introduce a person-aware cross-attention mechanism for preserving content details. + +Instead of sending raw pixels to the cross-attention module, we first encode each reference image $I_{i}$ using DINOv2 [42] into a feature embedding $f_{I_i} \in \mathbb{R}^{256 \times 768}$ , which has been validated to be effective for image generation and editing tasks [6]. If we follow the conventional cross-attention operation, after concatenating features together as $F = [f_{I_1}, f_{I_2}, \dots, f_{I_N}]$ , we obtain the value embedding $V \in \mathbb{R}^{(256 \cdot N) \times d}$ and key embedding $K \in \mathbb{R}^{(256 \cdot N) \times d}$ through linear layers individually to compute the output feature $O$ as: + +$$ +O = \operatorname {s o f t m a x} \left(\frac {Q K ^ {T}}{\sqrt {d}}\right) V, \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +K = \phi_ {K} (F), V = \phi_ {V} (F), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $d$ denotes feature dimension, and the query embedding $Q \in \mathbb{R}^{HW \times d}$ comes from the output of the last layer. $H$ and $W$ refer to the spatial resolution of features from the last layer (a.k.a self-attention layer). Based on this formulation, we introduce intra-person and inter-person guidances to solve our problem. + +Intra-Person Guidance. For the intra-person guidance, it is essential to let the model know the correspondences between pixel appearances with body components for each reference image. Then the model can adaptively learn the mapping to restore accurate appearances. We introduce the skeleton pose $P_{I_i}$ of exemplar images $I_i$ as the intra-person indicators as shown in Fig. 7. Similarly, we first extract pose features $p_{I_i}$ through a separately learned encoder, and compute the key embedding with an MLP after concatenating the image and pose features: + +$$ +\dot {K} = \phi_ {K} ([ K _ {1}, K _ {2}, \dots , K _ {N} ]), \tag {7} +$$ + +$$ +K _ {n} = \operatorname {M L P} \left(\left[ f _ {I _ {n}}, p _ {I _ {n}} \right]\right), \tag {8} +$$ + +where $[\cdot ]$ is the concatenation operation and $\mathrm{MLP}(\cdot)$ is the layers to process the concatenated features. The attention matrix is obtained as follows: + +$$ +M _ {a t t n} = Q \hat {K} ^ {T} \in \mathbb {R} ^ {H W \times 2 5 6 \cdot N}. \tag {9} +$$ + +It should be noted that we only introduce the pose information into keys and do not embed the pose information into values. The motivation lies in that pose information is an indicator of the body component and it should not be fused with the appearance information in keys. + +Inter-Person Guidance. For inter-person guidance, as shown in Fig. 7, we introduce the indicator mask to specify the locations of each reference person. The indicator masks $\{m_i\in \mathbb{R}^{H\times W}\}$ are obtained by bounding boxes around each person. The bounding boxes cover the full body. For each reference image, we reshape the corresponding indicator mask $m_{i}$ into a flattened tensor (whose shape is $\mathbb{R}^{HW}$ ) and repeat it into a matrix so that it has the shape of $\mathbb{R}^{HW\times 256}$ . The indicator matrix $M_{ind}\in \mathbb{R}^{HW\times 256\cdot N}$ is obtained by concatenating the matrices of all reference images. We add the indicator matrix to the attention matrix before applying the softmax operation. With this operation, when calculating the final output, the corresponding location will have higher weights to attend to the correct reference features. The operation is computed as: + +$$ +O = \operatorname {s o f t m a x} \left(\frac {M _ {\text {a t t n}} + w ^ {\prime} \cdot M _ {\text {i n d}}}{\sqrt {d}}\right) V, \tag {10} +$$ + +where the value embedding $V$ is obtained from the DINO feature of reference images without involving pose information. In practice [2], we multiply the indicator matrix by a scale factor $w'$ , which is obtained as follows: + +$$ +w ^ {\prime} = w \cdot \log (1 + \sigma) \cdot \max \left(M _ {a t t n}\right), \tag {11} +$$ + +where $w$ is the user-specified factor, and $\sigma$ corresponds to the noise level at different diffusion steps. + +# 5 Experiments + +# 5.1 Implementation Details + +Our method is implemented using PyTorch. The model is trained using eight NVIDIA A100 GPUs. We use the Adam optimizer to optimize the model. The beta is set as the default value. We set the learning rate as $10^{-4}$ . The learning rate scheduler is LambdaLinearScheduler. The number of warm-up steps is set as 2500. The batch size is set as 4 per GPU, and the global batch size is 32. The model is initialized with the Stable-Diffusion v1.5 Inpainting model. The original Stable Diffusion Inpainting model has 9 channels as input. We concatenate the skeleton as an additional input, and thus the number of channels is 12. For the first 9 channels of the first layer, we inherit the weights of Stable Diffusion Inpainting model and initialize the remaining three channels with zero weights. The model is trained for 80 epochs. The resolution of the image we use for training is $512 \times 512$ . We use the LV-MHP-v2 dataset [28,40,65], which is composed of 25,403 group photo images. With each image, there are human parsing annotations. For human parsing, we directly use the annotations provided in the dataset. We use MMPose [7] to predict the skeleton. When editing group photos at inference time, we adjust the lighting using the off-the-shelf model [24]. + +# 5.2 Comparison Methods + +SD Inpainting [44]. Stable Diffusion has provided the pretrained weights for inpainting. Here, we use the Stable Diffusion Inpainting (SD Inpainting) model as a baseline method. For person insertion, the interaction regions and the regions surrounding the inserted person are masked. For person removal, we mask the regions of the person to be removed. At inference time, SD Inpainting model is fed with the same masked image and masks as ours. Apart from pretrained SD Inpainting model, we also compare our model with two more baselines, which are adapted from the pretrained SD Inpainting model. The first baseline is the finetuned SD Inpainting model. We use our synthesized data to finetune the SD Inpainting model. The second baseline is the finetuned SD Inpainting model with skeleton control. Similar to our method, we add skeleton control to the SD inpainting model. We concatenate the skeleton with other inputs. Then we finetune the model using our generated data pair. + +Paint by Example [61]. Paint by Example is an exemplar-based image editing method. It fills masked regions using exemplar images. The exemplar image is fed into an image encoder, and then the extracted features are fed into the cross-attention module. For person insertion, we feed the model the full mask covering the place where the person is to be inserted and the single-person image as the exemplar image. For person deletion, the mask region is the area where the person is removed, and the exemplar image is a crop of background. + +![](images/b6d494b9131201b0695770cd9a199fa9aed97ea77f76ab33e30505a4880b7a38.jpg) +Fig. 8: Qualitative Comparisons. We compare our proposed GroupDiff against SD Inpainting [44] and Paint by Example [61]. (a) We show two examples of person insertion. (b) We show one example of person removal. + +# 5.3 Qualitative Comparisons + +Figure 8 shows some qualitative comparisons of our method. The results of person insertion are shown in Fig. 8(a). In the first row, we aim to add the old man to the image and make their hands hold together. According to the original image and the skeleton, we can get the masked image covering the interaction regions and the background regions. For the SD Inpainting model, the model adds a lot of persons behind the old man. Also, due to the lack of skeleton control, the interaction regions are not filled as expected. For Paint by Example, it inserts the old man into the left side of the photo and the obtained image looks to be composed of two split parts. Also, the appearance of the inserted person changed a lot. As for our proposed GroupDiff, it successfully inserts the person harmoniously. The hands of the persons correctly follow the given skeleton mask. + +In the second example of Fig. 8(a), a lady is to be inserted into the middle of the image. After insertion, the hands of the lady are supposed to be connected with neighboring persons as indicated by the skeleton mask. Still, the SD Inpainting model tends to add another person into the middle. The interaction regions are not synthesized as expected. For the Paint by Example, a lady is inserted into the photo, however, the identity of the person is not the one indicated in the exemplar image. By contrast, our model successfully inserts the target person into the photo with reasonable interactions. + +In Fig. 8(b), we show one example of person removal. We aim to remove the person standing on the left. The mask is obtained according to the bounding box of the person to be removed.

We use the validation set of LV-MHP-v2 [28], which has no overlap with our synthesized training data. We report the PSNR, SSIM, FID, CLIP-I, and DINO scores in Table 1. Compared with SD Inpainting and Paint by Example, our proposed GroupDiff has significantly better performance. Table 1 shows that the quantitative results improve after we fine-tune the pretrained SD inpainting model. Besides, skeleton control helps to improve the performance. The PSNR and SSIM values increase, while the FID score decreases. However, even with skeleton control, there is still a performance gap between this model and our proposed GroupDiff, which indicates the necessity of our proposed modules. + +# 5.5 Ablation Studies + +We report quantitative results for ablation studies in Table 2.

The ablation model is trained using the randomly masked group photo images. The images are randomly masked regardless of the bounding boxes of the persons and the skeletons. Quantitative results reported in Table 2 demonstrate that the model trained with the random mask has inferior performance. As discussed before, with the random mask, the model can infer the pose from the masked image and thus the capability of conditioning on the skeleton is limited.

As shown in Table 2, after removing the inter-person guidance, the model will have inferior PSNR, SSIM, and FID scores, which means the performance of the model "w/o inter-person" is inferior. As for removing the intra-person guidance, the model "w/o intra-person" has a better SSIM score but inferior PSNR and FID performance. We show visual examples in the supplementary file to demonstrate the effectiveness of this module. + +# 6 Conclusion + +In this work, we introduce a pioneering solution to the intricate challenging problem of group portrait editing. We formulate the task as an inpainting problem, addressing issues such as limited labeled data, appearance preservation, and manipulation flexibility. Our approach includes a data generation pipeline mimicking the real editing scenarios and a person-aware appearance preservation module for consistent editing results. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method. With the well-known difficulties of human generation and manipulation even for a single person, there is still ample room for refinement and innovation in our task. We hope our work can inspire the exploration of this important task. + +Limitations. Our proposed GroupDiff makes an assumption that the inserted person image has correct facial expression and facing orientations. If a person image from the side view is given, our method cannot insert the person into the group photo where all people are facing front. Besides, in the current model, the lighting of the inserted person is changed as a preprocessing step. Thus, the ability to adjust the lighting is capped by the capability of the pretrained model. More powerful models can be used to better adjust the lighting [10,21,22]. + +Potential Negative Impact. The proposed method can be used to generate fake images by putting a lot of people who don't know each other in a group photo. It may be negatively used to fabricate certain facts. + +Acknowledgement.

Group portrait editing is highly desirable since users constantly want to add a person, delete a person, or manipulate existing persons. It is also challenging due to the intricate dynamics of human interactions and the diverse gestures. In this work, we present GroupDiff, a pioneering effort to tackle group photo editing with three dedicated contributions: 1) Data Engine: Since there are no labeled data for group photo editing, we create a data engine to generate paired data for training. The training data engine covers the diverse needs of group portrait editing. 2) Appearance Preservation: To keep the appearance consistent after editing, we inject the images of persons from the group photo into the attention modules and employ skeletons to provide intra-person guidance. 3) Control Flexibility: Bounding boxes indicating the locations of each person are used to reweight the attention matrix so that the features of each person can be injected into the correct places. This interperson guidance provides flexible manners for manipulation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GroupDiff exhibits state-of-the-art performance compared to existing methods.

As personal features like facial expressions and pose orientation can be adjusted by single human editing methods [3, 31, 32, 34-36, 46, 47], our work builds on the assumption that both the initial group portrait photo and the inserted person are with satisfied facial expressions and facing orientations." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 641, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 641, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 641, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "To facilitate a more general setting, we aim to develop a unified framework handling three main group photo editing tasks (i.e., manipulation of existing per" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "2" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 225, + 102 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 225, + 102 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 225, + 102 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Y.

How to generate the training data fitting the natural distribution of group portrait editing is a difficult problem. Secondly, maintaining the appearance of individuals during the editing process is a formidable challenge. Users do not want the appearance to be changed, such as clothing be changed after editing. Besides, group photos often include multiple persons, and how to correctly map the reference appearance to the target person is a remaining problem.

For the issue of lacking large-scale before-after editing data, we propose a training data generation engine that mimics the editing requirements encountered in real-world applications of group photo editing. Many factors have been considered, such as the interaction ways, the body parts' appearances, and the poses. To maintain the appearance of the persons including the inserted person and the persons in the original photo, we propose an appearance preservation diffusion model which contains person-aware modules customized on attention layers. By taking the person(s) that the user wants to be kept as reference image(s), this model takes both inter-person and intra-person features when injecting the references into the editing process. This module can tackle the challenge posed by multiple persons through an indicator matrix, indicating the locations of each person and thus precise attention guidance. Additionally, we take the skeleton as an intermediate representation throughout our framework design, ensuring flexibility and controllability for users.

There are two major directions for single-human editing: facial editing and full-body editing. For facial editing, the target is to manipulate the facial attributes, e.g., age manipulation [57, 62], hair synthesis [41, 60] and expression manipulation [23, 26, 27, 46, 47, 56]. As for full-body editing, it mainly includes two directions: pose transfer and virtual try-on. The objective of pose transfer [3, 31, 32, 34-36] is to seamlessly transpose the visual characteristics of an individual from one pose to another. Albahar et al. [1] introduces a pose-conditioned StyleGAN framework in which the source image is warped to align with the target pose. The warping is operated according to the correspondence between the source pose and the target pose. The warped image is then employed to modulate the features. Try-on tasks aim to transfer the clothing of the person from one image to the other image. Traditional Try-on methods [5, 11, 19, 59] mainly focus on warping the clothing to the target person. Baldrati et al. [4] and Zhu et al. [66] propose to address the problem under the setting of diffusion models. Kulal et al. [25] study the single human editing task under the human-environment interactive setting. They propose a method to insert a person into the place.

GAN-based methods [20, 29, 30, 38, 43] often use the high-level information extracted by the networks and then use the extracted features to guide the inpainting. Recently, since the emergence of newer generative models, e.g. diffusion models and VQGAN models [9, 54], researchers propose to solve the task using languages [39, 55, 58]. RealFill [53] learns LoRA weights [18] to inpaint the background regions from reference images.

From the model side, we take the stable diffusion as the backbone [44]. Except for the noisy map, our model also takes an input image masked with the region to be filled, the corresponding mask, and the target skeleton map as inputs. These inputs are concatenated together before feeding them to the network. The masked region is filled with gray color. The skeleton map offers the user an option to specify the desired human interaction. As the masked region often covers the area that should remain the same after editing, such as the clothing and skin color, our model also takes the reference images of persons as conditions. Each reference person is given as a separate image. The reference images can be the inserted person or nearby persons around the interaction regions.

For example, when adding a person into the crowd, the surrounding context also should be completed, such as the area above the person's head.

Despite recent advances in large-scale text-to-image generative models, manipulating real images with these models remains a challenging problem. The main limitations of existing editing methods are that they either fail to perform with consistent quality on a wide range of image edits or require time-consuming hyperparameter tuning or fine-tuning of the diffusion model to preserve the image-specific appearance of the input image. We propose a novel approach that is built upon a modified diffusion sampling process via the guidance mechanism. In this work, we explore the self-guidance technique to preserve the overall structure of the input image and its local regions appearance that should not be edited. In particular, we explicitly introduce layout-preserving energy functions that are aimed to save local and global structures of the source image. Additionally, we propose a noise rescaling mechanism that allows to preserve noise distribution by balancing the norms of classifier-free guidance and our proposed guiders during generation.

Despite recent advances in large-scale text-to-image generative models, manipulating real images with these models remains a challenging problem. The main limitations of existing editing methods are that they either fail to perform with consistent quality on a wide range of image edits or require time-consuming hyperparameter tuning or fine-tuning of the diffusion model to preserve the image-specific appearance of the input image. We propose a novel approach that is built upon a modified diffusion sampling process via the guidance mechanism. In this work, we explore the self-guidance technique to preserve the overall structure of the input image and its local regions appearance that should not be edited. In particular, we explicitly introduce layout-preserving energy functions that are aimed to save local and global structures of the source image.

Despite recent advances in large-scale text-to-image generative models, manipulating real images with these models remains a challenging problem. The main limitations of existing editing methods are that they either fail to perform with consistent quality on a wide range of image edits or require time-consuming hyperparameter tuning or fine-tuning of the diffusion model to preserve the image-specific appearance of the input image. We propose a novel approach that is built upon a modified diffusion sampling process via the guidance mechanism. In this work, we explore the self-guidance technique to preserve the overall structure of the input image and its local regions appearance that should not be edited. In particular, we explicitly introduce layout-preserving energy functions that are aimed to save local and global structures of the source image. Additionally, we propose a noise rescaling mechanism that allows to preserve noise distribution by balancing the norms of classifier-free guidance and our proposed guiders during generation. Such a guiding + +approach does not require fine-tuning the diffusion model and exact inversion process. As a result, the proposed method provides a fast and high-quality editing mechanism. In our experiments, we show through human evaluation and quantitative analysis that the proposed method allows to produce desired editing which is more preferable by humans and also achieves a better trade-off between editing quality and preservation of the original image. Our code is available at https://github.com/AIRI-Institute/Guide-and-Rescale. + +# 1 Introduction + +In recent years, diffusion models [8,24] have been rapidly developed due to their high generation quality. Therefore, they have started to be actively used as a base model for text-to-image generative models [18-20], where an image has to be generated from a textual description. Although such models have already achieved impressive results, they are still difficult to apply to the task of editing real images. The main problem is to find a balance between making the edited image reflect the expected change and preserving the original structure and the parts that should not have been edited. + +Existing approaches to image manipulation based on text-to-image models address this task in different ways and can be categorized into three main groups of methods. Approaches from the first category [10,25,28] use fine-tuning of the whole diffusion model on the input image in order to preserve its structure and all necessary details during editing. Although such a strategy gives good results, the optimization process makes them very long, which does not allow to apply them in practice. In the next group of methods [1,2,4-7,16], instead of the optimization step, they use internal representations of images in the diffusion model and replace them during generation to preserve parts of the original image that should not change during editing. These methods are significantly faster than optimization-based methods, but they are not universal and require careful tuning of hyperparameters. As a result, they can only work consistently for a narrow set of edits. Finally, the third group of methods [13-15, 26] focuses on building a high-quality reconstruction of the original image by minimizing the discrepancy between the forward and backward trajectories of the diffusion processes. The main problem of this group of methods is the additional time required to construct a good quality inversion. In general, the currently available methods for manipulating real images have many limitations in terms of time, quality, and edit versatility, so it is still a challenging problem to find a model that is efficient, high quality, and covers most of the edit types. + +In this paper, we investigate the guidance technique for the problem of real image editing. As most of the tunneling-free approaches leverage UNet internal representations which are cached during inversion and used during editing generation, it causes misalignment between real features and inserted ones, and therefore noise trajectory may leave the distribution of natural images. To overcome these issues we propose special energy functions named guiders that are designed to preserve overall source image structure and local regions that should + +not be edited as well. We explicitly introduce preserving term that smoothly manipulates overall noise trajectory distribution. Additionally, we extend our framework by the automatic mechanism of noise rescaling which prevents discrepancy of noise trajectory from initial diffusion sampling by balancing the norms of classifier-free guidance and our proposed guiders. Our approach does not require the exact reconstruction as well as the fine-tuning the diffusion model, so it is computationally efficient. Due to the flexibility of the proposed guiders, our method is versatile and supports many types of editing, from local changes of objects to global stylisation (see Fig. 1). + +We apply our method to Stable Diffusion [19] model and conduct an extensive set of experiments for comparison with other methods. Our approach achieves a better balance between editing quality and preservation of the original image structure in terms of CLIP/LPIPS scores for a wide range of different editing types. For a standard image-to-image problem $(\mathrm{Dog} \to \mathrm{Cat})$ we show that our method performs better than other baselines. Also, we provide user studies and show that our approach is most preferable in human evaluation. + +# 2 Related Work + +Diffusion models [8,24] show high-quality results in generative modeling. This is the reason why they could be used to solve the image editing problem. Text-to-image diffusion models [18-20] are particularly useful and common for solving this problem. One of the first text-guided image editing methods is SDEdit [12] whose main idea is to add the noise step by step and then denoise with different conditions, but the quality of the editing is not so high. We can distinguish three main groups of editing methods which we consider next. + +Optimization-based methods. Methods in the first group [10, 25, 28] are based on fine-tuning the diffusion for the input image. In Imagic [10] and SINE [28] the diffusion model is fine-tuned on the original image, and the target prompt, which allows taking into account initial image characteristics but slows down the editing process. UniTune [25] fine-tunes the model only on the original image, but it still works slowly. However, UniTune, in contrast to Imagic and SINE, allows applying multiple edits to one image without any additional optimization. + +Methods that utilize internal representations of the diffusion model. The following approaches [1, 2, 4-7, 16] are based on using internal representations of the image in the text-to-image diffusion model, such as features from cross-attention and self-attention layers to preserve the structure and the details of the original image. Prompt-to-Prompt [7] controls the cross-attention by replacing maps for new tokens from the target prompt and preserving maps in the overlapping tokens. In [16] authors guide cross-attention maps to reference reconstruction with a source prompt during the denoising process. Plug-and-Play [4] outperforms Prompt-to-Prompt by using feature and self-attention outputs as conditions for the diffusion model to focus on spatial features and their self-affinities. InstructPix2Pix [1] proposes an approach based on a combination of + +![](images/14773110c475ca6599718780be3a9f2f3d6048bf6bb48d6773d15e431d19a97f.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overall scheme of the proposed method Guide-and-Rescale. First, our method uses a classic ddim inversion of the source real image. Then the method performs real image editing via the classical denoising process. For every denoising step the noise term is modified by guider that utilizes latents $z_{t}$ from the current generation process and time-aligned ddim latents $z_{t}^{*}$ . + +Prompt-to-Prompt and the language model to control editing through specific instructions, but it requires an additional dataset generation phase. + +The limitation of previous methods is the difficulty of changing poses and object locations. MasaCtrl [2] uses mutual self-attention features based on reconstruction during editing to preserve the local content and textures of the original image. In ProxMasaCtrl [6], which is MasaCtrl extension, an additional proximal gradient step for the scaled noise difference is used to change the geometry and layout in edited images. Despite the ability to change object poses, the disadvantage of MasaCtrl is that the original image, the object background, is preserved inaccurately. Self-guidance [5] proposes an approach to simple editorings such as changing object position, size, and color by using intermediate activations and attention interactions as guidance signals during generation. The method we propose is based on this self-guidance mechanism, but we develop it for any type of editing. + +Methods that improve the inversion part. The next group of methods [13-15, 26] focuses on improving the quality of the image reconstruction, and it allows to preserve parts of the image that should not be edited and the overall structure. This is achieved by narrowing the gap between the forward and backward trajectories of the diffusion model. Null-text Inversion [14] is proposed as an adaptation of Prompt-to-Prompt [7] for real images and is based on the optimization of the null-text embedding which is used in classifier-free guidance. To avoid learning the null-text embedding for each image, a new method for its approximation by the source prompt embedding is suggested in Negative-prompt Inversion [13], but it can lead to artifacts. EDICT [26] overcomes the restrictions of DDIM [22] in the image reconstruction by mathematically pre + +cise image inversion, but requires some additional computation time. Finally, AIDI [15] is proposed to increase the precision of the reconstruction by applying fixed-point iteration, Anderson acceleration in inversion, and blended guidance for sampling. + +The main problem of the methods in this group is the extra time needed to achieve a high-quality reconstruction of the initial image. Our method in contrast does not require an optimization and additional phase for image reconstruction, and therefore it is more computationally efficient. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +Diffusion Model. The method uses a pre-trained text-to-image diffusion model. In our experiments, we use a publicly available Stable Diffusion (SD) [19] model, specifically its checkpoint stable-diffusion-v1-4. Our method does not finetune or modify it. + +SD is a latent diffusion model (LDM) [19], meaning that the model operates in a latent space. Using a pre-trained VAE [11] encoder, Enc., one can encode an image into a sample from the latent space. And, likewise, given a latent $z$ and a VAE decoder, Dec., one can obtain an image space sample $x$ . However, our method does not rely on the existence of the latent space, so it may be applied to diffusion models, that perform sampling directly in the image space [20]. + +SD is a text-to-image model, meaning that it can be conditioned on textual captions. Our method heavily relies on this property, as it requires two prompts to be specified: a source prompt, describing the initial image, and a target prompt, outlining the desired result of editing. + +We use DDIM [22] sampling with $T = 50$ intermediate steps, where a single sampling step is defined as: + +$$ +z _ {t - 1} = a _ {t} z _ {t} + b _ {t} \varepsilon_ {\theta} (z _ {t}, t, y), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $a_{t}, b_{t}$ are specified coefficients, $z_{t}$ is a current latent, $t$ is a current timestep, $y$ is conditioning data and $\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t,t,y)$ is the noise, predicted by the diffusion model. + +To allow the diffusion model to operate with real images, we need a noised latent $z_{T}$ , corresponding to this image. For this purpose, we use DDIM inversion, defined similarly to Equation 1: + +$$ +z _ {t + 1} = a _ {t} ^ {*} z _ {t} + b _ {t} ^ {*} \varepsilon_ {\theta} (z _ {t}, t, y). \tag {2} +$$ + +Even though DDIM inversion is not stable, as noted by the authors of Prompt-to-Prompt [7], our method overcomes this issue without any enhancements to the inversion process or optimization and is capable of preserving features of the initial image, as we show in experiments. + +Guidance. Guidance mechanism takes the prediction of the diffusion model and enhances it with information from additional data. Classifier guidance relies on a separate model, classifier $p(y|z_t)$ , trained on noised latents. As long as this + +classifier is differentiable with respect to the current latent, we can subtract score function $\nabla_{z_t}\log p(y|z_t)$ from the diffusion model prediction to sample from the conditional distribution $p(z_{t}|y)$ instead of the data distribution $p(z_{t})$ + +Training a separate classifier on specific data may sometimes be a resourceful task. Given a conditional diffusion model, one can rely on this model's knowledge about additional data, that it inquires with conditioning capabilities. This guidance technique is called classifier-free guidance (CFG) [9]. To determine the sampling direction, which leads to correspondence with conditioning data $y$ , CFG compares a conditional prediction of the model with an unconditional one. In case of text-to-image models, the latter can be easily obtained by conditioning the model on the empty text $\varnothing = \emptyset$ . With CFG incorporated, the diffusion model prediction, used in both sampling, Equation 1, and inversion, Equation 2, takes the form of $\hat{\varepsilon}_{\theta}(z_t,t,y)$ : + +$$ +\hat {\varepsilon} _ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y\right) = \operatorname {C F G} \left(z _ {t}, t, y, w\right) = \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, \varnothing\right) + w \left(\varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y\right) - \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, \varnothing\right)\right), \tag {3} +$$ + +where $w$ is a guidance scale, that controls to which extent additional data $y$ influences the generation process. For SD model, the guidance scale is typically chosen as $w = 7.5$ . It is important to note, that with $w = 1$ CFG sampling step equals regular conditional sampling. + +Self-guidance. As proposed in [5], the choice in guidance sources is not limited to either the classifier or the diffusion model itself. One can use any energy function $g$ to guide the sampling process, as long as there exists a gradient with respect to $z_{t}$ . When the energy function uses outputs of internal layers of the diffusion model, the guidance process is called self-guidance. The authors of the method suggest defining energy function $g$ on top of cross-attention maps $\mathcal{A}^{\mathrm{cross}} \coloneqq$ cross attn. $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t,t,y)]$ and the output of penultimate layer of the diffusion model decoder, features $\varPsi \coloneqq$ features $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t,t,y)]$ . To add self-guidance to CFG, one has to modify $\hat{\varepsilon}_{\theta}(z_t,t,y)$ from Equation 3 as: + +$$ +\hat {\varepsilon} _ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y\right) = \operatorname {C F G} \left(z _ {t}, t, y, w\right) + v \cdot \nabla_ {z _ {t}} g \left(z _ {t}, t, y, \mathcal {A} ^ {\text {c r o s s}}, \Psi\right), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $v$ is a self-guidance scale. + +# 3.2 Guide and Rescale + +Consider an initial image $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ , a source prompt $y_{\mathrm{src}}$ and a target prompt $y_{\mathrm{trg}}$ . For example, let $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ be a photo of a woman with blue hair, wearing a shirt with a drawing. A source prompt, describing the initial image, can be defined as $y_{\mathrm{src}} =$ "A photo of a woman wearing a shirt with a drawing". A target prompt should describe the desired editing result. For instance, if we want to change the color of the shirt to red, the target prompt can be defined as $y_{\mathrm{trg}} =$ "A photo of a woman wearing a red shirt with a drawing". This example is illustrated in Fig. 3. + +Our goal is to generate an image $x_{\mathrm{edit}}$ , that would correspond to the editing, specified in $y_{\mathrm{trg}}$ . At the same time, $x_{\mathrm{edit}}$ should contain all the features of $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ , not influenced by editing. For example, when changing the color of the shirt, + +Source prompt: "A photo of a woman wearing a shirt with a drawing" Target prompt: "A photo of a woman wearing a red shirt with a drawing" + +![](images/2f3bd5ef147a22e4b07b17526ffc8b0b86f46aafb3222225f6649ea0ec033a12.jpg) +Fig. 3: Editing example. From left to right, first: initial image; second: naive editing, described in Equation 6; third: editing with simple energy function $g$ from Equation 7; fourth: editing with the proposed method. + +![](images/f5a213bc84462894c9f7e57b3877c4c68a1c592d3e5eb7208b24896ffa4fb5f1.jpg) + +![](images/75ad581a5374f7fa3da90badf5e6fbe3643e84ba0981859e5f6c6ee695cee1d2.jpg) + +![](images/054ae7dfa43e81653ae8b5c80939a44bea2f30d5a1285aae48cf0de76a7913a8.jpg) + +$x_{\mathrm{edit}}$ and $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ should be the same in all other aspects. Meaning, that we should preserve the background of the photo and the visual appearance of the woman, including the color of her hair, her facial expression, and her position. + +A naive approach to obtain correspondence to $y_{\mathrm{trg}}$ can be described as follows. First, we obtain a DDIM inversion trajectory $\{z_t^*\}_{t=0}^T$ for $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ , conditioning on $y_{\mathrm{src}}$ . We use CFG with guidance scale $w = 1$ , i.e. regular conditional sampling: + +$$ +\begin{array}{c} z _ {0} ^ {*} = \operatorname {E n c.} \left(x _ {\text {i n i t}}\right) \\ z _ {t + 1} ^ {*} = a _ {t} ^ {*} z _ {t} ^ {*} + b _ {t} ^ {*} \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}\right) | _ {0 \leq t \leq T - 1}. \end{array} \tag {5} +$$ + +A noised latent $z_{T}^{*}$ has information about $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ encoded, so an obvious further step would be to synthesize an image, starting from obtained $z_{T}^{*}$ and conditioning on $y_{\mathrm{trg}}$ , using CFG with standard sampling guidance scale $w = 7.5$ : + +$$ +\begin{array}{c} \hat {z} _ {T} = z _ {T} ^ {*} \\ \hat {z} _ {t - 1} = a _ {t} \hat {z} _ {t} + b _ {t} \mathrm {C F G} (\hat {z} _ {t - 1}, t, y _ {\mathrm {t r g}}, 7. 5) \big | _ {1 \leq t \leq T} \\ x _ {\mathrm {e d i t}} = D e c. (\hat {z} _ {0}). \end{array} \tag {6} +$$ + +This method achieves near-perfect coherence with $y_{\mathrm{trg}}$ . However, due to a mismatch of guidance scales and conditioning data in inversion and sampling processes, trajectory $\{\hat{z}_t\}_{t=0}^T$ ends up being too far from $\{z_t^*\}_{t=0}^T$ . This results in $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ being modified significantly, as shown by the second image in Fig. 3. + +In previous works, there are different workarounds suggested. For example, substituting inner representations of the diffusion model with corresponding representations from $\{z_t^*\}_{t=0}^T$ [2,7,23], finetuning the model [10] or optimizing null-text embeddings [14] to move $\{\hat{z}_t\}_{t=0}^T$ closer to the inversion trajectory. + +In this work, we suggest addressing this problem with modified self-guidance. As inversion trajectory is an almost perfect reconstruction trajectory for $x_{\mathrm{init}}$ , we suggest guiding the sampling process with respect to $\{z_t^*\}_{t=0}^T$ . This way we will be able to preserve features of the initial image. For example, we can simply define the function $g$ as an L2 norm of the difference of the current latent, obtained with CFG sampling in Equation 6, and the corresponding inversion latent: + +$$ +g (\hat {z} _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}) = \| \hat {z} _ {t} - z _ {t} ^ {*} \| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {7} +$$ + +However, for proper editing, it is important to control, which regions of the image we want to preserve with the function $g$ , and which areas we still want to vividly edit. Based on editing results (Fig. 3), the simple function in Equation 7 does not hold this property. + +We found that applying guidance over inner representations of the model offers the desired control over image regions. To obtain this inner representation, we need to conduct two separate forward passes over the diffusion model. + +First, for the inversion trajectory, we make a single sampling step with the same parameters, as in Equation 5: + +$$ +\bar {z} _ {t - 1} ^ {*} = a _ {t} z _ {t} ^ {*} + b _ {t} \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}\right). \tag {8} +$$ + +Together with a new latent $\bar{z}_{t-1}^*$ , we obtain inner representations of the diffusion model $\varepsilon_{\theta}$ , corresponding to the inversion trajectory. For now, we denote them as $\mathcal{I}^*$ , i.e. $\mathcal{I}^*$ is a set of inner representations (for example, outputs of cross-attention or self-attention layers, etc.) that are calculated during the forward pass of $\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t^*, t, y_{\mathrm{src}})$ . The $\mathcal{I}^*$ will be defined more specifically in the following Sec. 3.2. + +As $\mathcal{I}^*$ is produced with conditioning on $y_{\mathrm{src}}$ , a proper way to obtain inner representations for the current trajectory, denoted as $\overline{\mathcal{I}}$ , would be to make a single sampling step, starting at a current latent $z_{t}$ and conditioning on $y_{\mathrm{src}}$ : + +$$ +\bar {z} _ {t - 1} = a _ {t} z _ {t} + b _ {t} \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}\right). \tag {9} +$$ + +Conditioning on the same prompt $y_{\mathrm{src}}$ is an important detail towards more stable editing process. This way, the resulting inner representations for the inversion and the current trajectories are aligned better, rather than when conditioning on different prompts. Besides, when preserving features of the initial image, we want to detach information about editing from the current state of these features. Our logic is, that with the sampling step in Equation 9 we want to see, how much has reconstruction of the initial image suffered, and compare it with the ideal reconstruction in Equation 8. + +The current latent $z_{t}$ in Equation 9 is the result of applying CFG together with our self-guidance at the previous sampling step, initially being defined as $z_{T} = z_{T}^{*}$ . + +We define the energy function as $g(z_{t},z_{t}^{*},t,y_{\mathrm{src}},\mathcal{I}^{*},\overline{\mathcal{I}})$ . A sampling step in Equation 4 can be rewritten as: + +$$ +\hat {\varepsilon} _ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y\right) = \operatorname {C F G} \left(z _ {t}, t, y _ {\mathrm {t r g}}, 7. 5\right) + v \cdot \nabla_ {z _ {t}} g \left(z _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}, \mathcal {I} ^ {*}, \bar {\mathcal {I}}\right). \tag {10} +$$ + +See the overall pipeline of the method in Fig. 2 and more details can be found in Appendix A. We suggest ways to specify Equation 10 by defining the inner representations sources in the following section, where we denote function $g$ as a guider. + +Guiders We found that jointly including a Self-attention Guider and a Feature Guider into the generation process is sufficient for improving editing and preserving the initial image features. At the same time, they do not interfere with the editing, done by CFG. The effect of these guiders is illustrated in Fig 4a. More details about guiders and its properties can be found in Appendix B. + +Self-attention Guider. As noted by the authors of [23], self-attention maps contain information about the layout of the image, i.e. relative positioning of objects. While preserving layout is a primary challenge for stylisation tasks, it is also useful for other editing types. + +To utilize this finding, we suggest guiding through matching of self-attention maps from the current trajectory $\bar{A}_i^{\mathrm{self}}\coloneqq$ self attn. $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t,t,y_{\mathrm{src}})]$ and an ideal reconstruction trajectory $\mathcal{A}_i^{*\mathrm{self}}\coloneqq$ self attn. $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t^*,t,y_{\mathrm{src}})]$ , where $i$ corresponds to the index of the UNet layer. So, in this case $\mathcal{I}^{*} = \{\bar{A}_{i}^{*\mathrm{self}}\} ,\overline{\mathcal{I}} = \{\bar{A}_{i}^{\mathrm{self}}\}$ and the guider is defined as follows: + +$$ +g \left(z _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}, \left\{\mathcal {A} _ {i} ^ {* \text {s e l f}} \right\}, \left\{\bar {\mathcal {A}} _ {i} ^ {\text {s e l f}} \right\}\right) = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {L} \operatorname {m e a n} \| \mathcal {A} _ {i} ^ {* \text {s e l f}} - \bar {\mathcal {A}} _ {i} ^ {\text {s e l f}} \| _ {2} ^ {2}, \tag {11} +$$ + +where $L$ is a number of UNet layers. + +Feature Guider. While preserving layout can significantly improve editing quality, it is not sufficient. For example, when applying local editing to a photo of a person, it is crucial to preserve visual features as well, such as face expressions. + +To achieve this, for non-stylisation editing task we adopt an idea from [5]. The authors of this work propose an appearance function for controlling visual appearance of an object, which utilizes masked features. In this work we define features $\varPhi$ as an output of the last up-block in UNet. We also found, that masking is not crucial and does not influence the quality of editing in our setting, so we eliminated it for simplicity. Similar to [5], we apply L1 norm to the difference of $\bar{\varPhi} =$ features $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t,t,y_{\mathrm{src}})]$ and $\varPhi^{*}=$ features $[\varepsilon_{\theta}(z_t^*,t,y_{\mathrm{src}})]$ : + +$$ +g \left(z _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}, \Phi^ {*}, \bar {\Phi}\right) = \operatorname {m e a n} \left\| \Phi^ {*} - \bar {\Phi} \right\| _ {1}. \tag {12} +$$ + +For stylisation tasks, similar to [23], we define $\varPhi$ as an output of the second ResNet block in the second UNet up-block. Similar to Equation 12, the guider is defined as follows: + +$$ +g \left(z _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}, \Phi^ {*}, \bar {\Phi}\right) = \operatorname {m e a n} \| \Phi^ {*} - \bar {\Phi} \| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {13} +$$ + +Noise rescaling Even though the proposed guiders significantly improve editing quality, the resulting method experiences inconsistency in terms of optimal guidance scales, when applied to a wide range of images. + +We noticed that when our method's behavior is unstable, norms of CFG and the sum of gradients of all the guiders show instability over sampling steps as well. + +We suggest scaling the sum of guiders' gradients by a factor, depending on the CFG norm. This way, the proportion of both editing and preservation will be consistent throughout the whole synthesis process and easily controllable. + +More formally, a single noise sampling step will now be defined as: + +![](images/a3430a75f0db98ac3ed4adc854b1d4b4baa9ce612ebc74fa85854cdecc218a6c.jpg) +(a) + +![](images/59c6e0c4e1caa80c98a96a915c428337fcec81d8d9cbbcf799c784263c0b00e5.jpg) +(b) +Fig. 4: (a) Effect of the proposed guiders (Equation 11, Equation 12). Jointly applying both guiders preserves both layout and visual characteristics of unedited regions of the image. (b) Illustration of applying noise rescaling (Equation 14). This technique aligns the sum of guiders with CFG according to the coefficient, defined in Equation 15, therefore stabilizes editing and improves its quality. + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \epsilon_ {t} = \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, \varnothing\right) + w \left(\varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, y\right) - \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t}, t, \varnothing\right)\right) + \\ + \gamma \sum_ {i} v _ {i} \cdot \nabla_ {z _ {t}} g _ {i} (z _ {t}, z _ {t} ^ {*}, t, y _ {\mathrm {s r c}}, \mathcal {I} ^ {*}, \overline {{\mathcal {I}}}), \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\gamma$ is a scaling factor. With $r$ being a numerical parameter, controlling the proportion between editing and preservation, $\gamma$ can be computed as: + +$$ +r _ {\text {c u r}} (t) = \frac {\left\| w \left(\varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t} , t , y\right) - \varepsilon_ {\theta} \left(z _ {t} , t , \varnothing\right)\right) \right\| _ {2} ^ {2}}{\left\| \sum_ {i} v _ {i} \cdot \nabla_ {z _ {t}} g _ {i} \left(z _ {t} , z _ {t} ^ {*} , t , y _ {\text {s r c}}\right) \right\| _ {2} ^ {2}}, \tag {15} +$$ + +$$ +\gamma = r \cdot r _ {\mathrm {c u r}} (t). +$$ + +We found that keeping $r$ in an interval, rather than defining it as a fixed numerical hyperparameter, works best in experiments. An interval can be defined so that the fraction of norms in Equation 15 does not exceed some pre-defined upper and lower boundaries. This way, together with obtaining the desired consistency, we still let the diffusion model decide, whether the current sampling step needs more editing or preservation. More formally: + +$$ +r (t) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} r _ {\text {l o w e r}}, \frac {1}{r _ {\text {c u r}} (t)} \leq r _ {\text {l o w e r}} \\ \frac {1}{r _ {\text {c u r}} (t)}, r _ {\text {l o w e r}} < \frac {1}{r _ {\text {c u r}} (t)} < r _ {\text {u p p e r}}, \\ r _ {\text {u p p e r}}, \frac {1}{r _ {\text {c u r}} (t)} \geq r _ {\text {u p p e r}} \end{array} \right. \tag {16} +$$ + +An example of applying noise rescaling to the proposed method is provided in Fig. 4b. More details about rescaling and its analysis can be found in Appendix C. + +# 4 Experiments + +Experiment Setup. In order to comprehensively compare image manipulation methods, we decided to consider 4 different types of editing: 1) local manipulation of a person's appearance and clothing, 2) changing person's emotions, 3) replacing one animal with another, and 4) global image stylisation. For each type, we collected 20 different example edits on which we tested all methods. A more detailed description of these types of edits and all examples can be found in the Appendix D. + +To compare the similarity of edited and real images we collected more extensive datasets. A particular case of animal-to-animal type of editing is the task of transformation dogs into cats. To compare methods on this task we collected 500 examples of dogs from the AFHQ dataset [3] and then compared the results of editing with cats from the same dataset. For other types of editing datasets and details are described in the Appendix D. + +We compared our method with existing approaches that have publicly available source code: NPI [13], NPI Prox [6] and NTI [14] based on P2P [7], MasaCtrl [2], ProxMasaCtrl [6], PnP [4], and EDICT [26]. We used the authors' original code with the default parameters recommended in the description of each method. For our method, we also fixed hyperparameters during evaluation. More details about our method setup can be found in Appendix F. + +# 4.1 Qualitative Comparison + +In Fig. 5 we see the result of our method and previous approaches on examples of edits belonging to one of the 4 types of edits mentioned above. It can be seen that our method shows stable quality across all types of edits. In cases where the whole image does not need to be stylized, our method, unlike baselines, is good at preserving the structure and background that should not be changed. For example, when editing a person's emotion, our method only affects the face area and does not change the rest of the person's attributes and background, unlike other methods that corrupt the overall structure of the original image. This can be seen particularly well in local edits of different attributes of a woman. The MasaCtrl and ProxMasaCtrl methods strongly alter the geometry of the person, and the target edit is not always obtained. The P2P+NTI, P2P+NPI, and P2P+NPI Prox methods either transform the target attribute while corrupting others or edit nothing at all. The PnP method almost always achieves the desired edit but at the cost of severe loss of structure of the original image. The EDICT method performs best compared to the other methods but is still inferior to our method in most of these examples. + +# 4.2 Quantitative Comparison + +To quantitatively evaluate the performance of our method, we decided to use an evaluation protocol similar to that used in EDICT [26]. This protocol measures two key properties of the method. The first is the extent to which the result of + +![](images/17506f882bd54c853cd5a5a8523e4787fd0da1bf0992ced1975abe10054b5538.jpg) +Fig. 5: Visual comparison of our method with baselines over different types of editing. Our approach shows more consistent results than existing methods and achieves a better trade-off between editing quality and preservation of the structure of the original image. + +the method contains the desired edit. To measure this characteristic, we use the CLIP score [17], which is calculated between the edited image and the target prompt. The second property is the extent to which the method preserves the structure and details of the original image that should not change during editing. For this, we use the LPIPS metric [27] between the original image and its edited version. + +The results of these metrics for our method and others are shown in Table 1. They show that our method achieves the best balance between preserving the original image structure and editing the target attribute. In particular, on the LPIPS metric, we perform best apart from the EDICT method, which we significantly outperform on the CLIP score. On the CLIP score, we also perform best apart from the PnP method, which is strongly inferior in its ability to preserve the structure of the original image in terms of the LPIPS metric. The other approaches show uniformly worse results with respect to these two metrics. It is also worth noting that compared to the most advanced EDICT and PnP methods, our method is more computationally efficient, as can be seen from the running time for editing an image. More analysis of these results can be found in Appendix G. + +To quantitatively evaluate the distance between the distributions of edited and real images we calculate FID Score [21] on the dog-to-cat transformation task. As shown in Table 1 our method outperforms the others by FID Score. MasaCtrl and ProxMasaCtrl show the highest FID that is correlated with artifacts on edited images and its nonrealism in Fig. 21 in Appendix D.3. The closest FID Score to our method has PnP but it is shown to be several times slower than our method. + +Table 1: Comparison with baselines on image editing task by using 80 examples of 4 different edit types to compute the LPIPS and CLIP per edit. 500 samples of the dog-to-cat type of editing are used to compute FID. Our method achieves the best balance between editing quality (CLIP) and preservation of the original image (LPIPS) and reaches the best similarity to the real image's distribution (FID). The inference time (including the inversion part) is computed on a single GPU A100 in seconds. + +

+ +# 4.3 User Study + +Next, we conducted a user study to compare our method with baselines. We used the same example edits of the 4 types we described above. We evaluate how much our method is preferred by others in the form of a pairwise comparison question. We surveyed 62 users who answered a total of 960 questions. Each question showed the original image, the targeting prompt, and two results. Users had to answer two questions. The first question (Q1) is "Which image matches the desired editing description best?" The second question (Q2) is "Which image preserves the overall structure of the "Original Image" best?" + +The results of this user study are shown in Table 2. Each value represents the percentage of the users that preferred our method over the corresponding baseline in the first column. We can see that our method is preferred over almost all baselines in terms of "Editing" quality and is subjectively similar to $\mathrm{P2P + }$ NPI Prox. However, our method is better than $\mathrm{P2P + NPI}$ Prox in terms of preservation quality. To summarize, our method is consistent over a wide range of different edits and subjectively gives better results on editing quality while preserving source image regions that should not be edited. Details of the user study can be found in the Appendix H. + +Table 2: User study that evaluates the subjective preference of our method that is preferred over all baselines. + +

"Abstract. Despite recent advances in large-scale text-to-image generative models, manipulating real images with these models remains a challenging problem. The main limitations of existing editing methods are that they either fail to perform with consistent quality on a wide range of image edits or require time-consuming hyperparameter tuning or fine-tuning of the diffusion model to preserve the image-specific appearance of the input image. We propose a novel approach that is built upon a modified diffusion sampling process via the guidance mechanism. In this work, we explore the self-guidance technique to preserve the overall structure of the input image and its local regions appearance that should not be edited. In particular, we explicitly introduce layout-preserving energy functions that are aimed to save local and global structures of the source image. Additionally, we propose a noise rescaling mechanism that allows to preserve noise distribution by balancing the norms of classifier-free guidance and our proposed guiders during generation.

Approaches from the first category [10,25,28] use fine-tuning of the whole diffusion model on the input image in order to preserve its structure and all necessary details during editing. Although such a strategy gives good results, the optimization process makes them very long, which does not allow to apply them in practice. In the next group of methods [1,2,4-7,16], instead of the optimization step, they use internal representations of images in the diffusion model and replace them during generation to preserve parts of the original image that should not change during editing. These methods are significantly faster than optimization-based methods, but they are not universal and require careful tuning of hyperparameters. As a result, they can only work consistently for a narrow set of edits. Finally, the third group of methods [13-15, 26] focuses on building a high-quality reconstruction of the original image by minimizing the discrepancy between the forward and backward trajectories of the diffusion processes. The main problem of this group of methods is the additional time required to construct a good quality inversion.

Despite the ability to change object poses, the disadvantage of MasaCtrl is that the original image, the object background, is preserved inaccurately. Self-guidance [5] proposes an approach to simple editorings such as changing object position, size, and color by using intermediate activations and attention interactions as guidance signals during generation. The method we propose is based on this self-guidance mechanism, but we develop it for any type of editing." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 534, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 534, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 534, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Methods that improve the inversion part.

Null-text Inversion [14] is proposed as an adaptation of Prompt-to-Prompt [7] for real images and is based on the optimization of the null-text embedding which is used in classifier-free guidance. To avoid learning the null-text embedding for each image, a new method for its approximation by the source prompt embedding is suggested in Negative-prompt Inversion [13], but it can lead to artifacts.

For example, when editing a person's emotion, our method only affects the face area and does not change the rest of the person's attributes and background, unlike other methods that corrupt the overall structure of the original image. This can be seen particularly well in local edits of different attributes of a woman. The MasaCtrl and ProxMasaCtrl methods strongly alter the geometry of the person, and the target edit is not always obtained. The P2P+NTI, P2P+NPI, and P2P+NPI Prox methods either transform the target attribute while corrupting others or edit nothing at all.

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has become an area of interest in research due to the availability of roadside infrastructure perception datasets. However, these datasets primarily focus on urban intersections and lack data on highway scenarios. Additionally, the perception tasks in the datasets are mainly MONO 3D due to limited synchronized data across multiple sensors. To bridge this gap, we propose Highway-V2X (H-V2X), the first large-scale highway Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) perception dataset captured by sensors in the real world. The dataset covers over 100 kilometers of highway, with a diverse range of road and weather conditions. H-V2X consists of over 1.9 million fine-grained categorized samples in BEV space, captured by multiple synchronized cameras, with vector map provided. We performed joint 2D-3D calibrations to ensure correct projection and human labor was involved to ensure data quality. Furthermore, we propose three highly relevant tasks to the highway scenario: BEV detection, BEV tracking, and trajectory prediction. We conducted benchmarks for each task, and innovative methods incorporating vector map information were proposed. We hope that H-V2X and benchmark methods will facilitate highway BEV perception research direction.

For datasets relevant to autonomous vehicles from the vehicle side, we recommend referring to the autonomous driving datasets survey in [22, 39]. To enable autonomous driving vehicles to perceive long-range and blind-spot areas roadside perception (detailed in next section) and V2X datasets [6, 11, 14, 15, 18, 27, 35, 36, 38] have emerged as a new research direction. Among these works, roadside sensor data are provided in either simulated or real form, with scenarios focused on either urban or highway. A comprehensive comparison of these datasets can be found in table 1. Regarding simulated datasets, OPV2V [27] introduced a vehicle-to-vehicle simulated perception dataset featuring an average of 3 vehicles in the CARLA [7] simulator. Similarly, V2X-Sim [18] utilized CARLA and SUMO [16] to create a vehicle-to-RSU collaborative perception dataset. Additionally, Roadside-Opt [14] provided a roadside LiDARs dataset that focuses on sensor placement optimization, also using CARLA. These simulated datasets predominantly center on urban scenes, particularly intersections, with relatively limited representation of highway scenarios. On the other hand, roadside datasets captured by real sensors such as those proposed in [11, 35, 36, 38] use cameras or LiDARs in infrastructure-only or infrastructure-vehicle cooperative scenarios in urban areas. These datasets primarily support Mono3D detection tasks [11, 35, 36], as well as tracking and prediction tasks [38]. For highway scenarios, HighD [15] released a camera-based aerial perspective (top-down view) highway dataset using drones. A9-Dataset [6] released a 3km-long roadside Mono3D detection dataset using cameras and LiDARs. DAIR-V2X-V [36] released a highway Mono3D dataset but from the vehicle side. However, there is still a lack of a large-scale highway roadside dataset collected from real-world sensors, where vehicles pass across multiple roadside sensors, thus forming a BEV perception task.

PointPillars [17], MVX-Net [24], Second [28], FIXOR [30] and VoxelNet [43] were reimplemented for LiDAR-based monocular 3D detection baseline methods in DAIR-V2X-C/I [36] and OPV2V [27] dataset. Additionally, TNT [42] and HiVT [44] are utilized as trajectory prediction baseline methods in V2X-Seq [38]. Beyond these baseline methods, which were adopted from recent works on autonomous detection tasks, InfraDet3D [45] proposed a multi-modal 3D detector that fuses LiDAR point clouds in an early fusion manner and incorporates camera detections in a late fusion manner. TransIFFTransIFF [5] and Quest [8] proposed instance-level feature fusion frameworks based on transformers by fusing infrastructure and vehicle side inputs. FFNet [37] proposed a flow-based feature fusion network that transmits feature flow instead of static features. BEVHeight [34] and BEVHeight++ [32] tackled roadside monocular 3D detection by predicting categorical height distribution per pixel to regress the height of vehicles to the ground. MonoGAE [33] proposed a ground-aware embedding by integrating implicit roadside ground information with a pixel-level ground plane equation map encoder. Furthermore, there is a line of work that addresses roadside perception from the perspective of multiagent cooperative perception by treating roadside input as one of the agents, as seen in Where2comm [12], SCOPE [31], CORE [26], etc. For a more comprehensive understanding of cooperative perception, we recommend referring to the V2X survey paper [20].

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has become an area of interest in research due to the availability of roadside infrastructure perception datasets. However, these datasets primarily focus on urban intersections and lack data on highway scenarios. Additionally, the perception tasks in the datasets are mainly MONO 3D due to limited synchronized data across multiple sensors. To bridge this gap, we propose Highway-V2X (H-V2X), the first large-scale highway Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) perception dataset captured by sensors in the real world. The dataset covers over 100 kilometers of highway, with a diverse range of road and weather conditions. H-V2X consists of over 1.9 million fine-grained categorized samples in BEV space, captured by multiple synchronized cameras, with vector map provided. We performed joint 2D-3D calibrations to ensure correct projection and human labor was involved to ensure data quality. Furthermore, we propose three highly relevant tasks to the highway scenario: BEV detection, BEV tracking, and trajectory prediction. We conducted benchmarks for each task, and innovative methods incorporating vector map information were proposed. We hope that H-V2X and benchmark methods will facilitate highway BEV perception research direction.

For datasets relevant to autonomous vehicles from the vehicle side, we recommend referring to the autonomous driving datasets survey in [22, 39]. To enable autonomous driving vehicles to perceive long-range and blind-spot areas roadside perception (detailed in next section) and V2X datasets [6, 11, 14, 15, 18, 27, 35, 36, 38] have emerged as a new research direction. Among these works, roadside sensor data are provided in either simulated or real form, with scenarios focused on either urban or highway. A comprehensive comparison of these datasets can be found in table 1. Regarding simulated datasets, OPV2V [27] introduced a vehicle-to-vehicle simulated perception dataset featuring an average of 3 vehicles in the CARLA [7] simulator. Similarly, V2X-Sim [18] utilized CARLA and SUMO [16] to create a vehicle-to-RSU collaborative perception dataset. Additionally, Roadside-Opt [14] provided a roadside LiDARs dataset that focuses on sensor placement optimization, also using CARLA. These simulated datasets predominantly center on urban scenes, particularly intersections, with relatively limited representation of highway scenarios. On the other hand, roadside datasets captured by real sensors such as those proposed in [11, 35, 36, 38] use cameras or LiDARs in infrastructure-only or infrastructure-vehicle cooperative scenarios in urban areas. These datasets primarily support Mono3D detection tasks [11, 35, 36], as well as tracking and prediction tasks [38]. For highway scenarios, HighD [15] released a camera-based aerial perspective (top-down view) highway dataset using drones. A9-Dataset [6] released a 3km-long roadside Mono3D detection dataset using cameras and LiDARs. DAIR-V2X-V [36] released a highway Mono3D dataset but from the vehicle side. However, there is still a lack of a large-scale highway roadside dataset collected from real-world sensors, where vehicles pass across multiple roadside sensors, thus forming a BEV perception task.

PointPillars [17], MVX-Net [24], Second [28], FIXOR [30] and VoxelNet [43] were reimplemented for LiDAR-based monocular 3D detection baseline methods in DAIR-V2X-C/I [36] and OPV2V [27] dataset. Additionally, TNT [42] and HiVT [44] are utilized as trajectory prediction baseline methods in V2X-Seq [38]. Beyond these baseline methods, which were adopted from recent works on autonomous detection tasks, InfraDet3D [45] proposed a multi-modal 3D detector that fuses LiDAR point clouds in an early fusion manner and incorporates camera detections in a late fusion manner. TransIFFTransIFF [5] and Quest [8] proposed instance-level feature fusion frameworks based on transformers by fusing infrastructure and vehicle side inputs. FFNet [37] proposed a flow-based feature fusion network that transmits feature flow instead of static features. BEVHeight [34] and BEVHeight++ [32] tackled roadside monocular 3D detection by predicting categorical height distribution per pixel to regress the height of vehicles to the ground. MonoGAE [33] proposed a ground-aware embedding by integrating implicit roadside ground information with a pixel-level ground plane equation map encoder. Furthermore, there is a line of work that addresses roadside perception from the perspective of multiagent cooperative perception by treating roadside input as one of the agents, as seen in Where2comm [12], SCOPE [31], CORE [26], etc. For a more comprehensive understanding of cooperative perception, we recommend referring to the V2X survey paper [20].

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has become an area of interest in research due to the availability of roadside infrastructure perception datasets. However, these datasets primarily focus on urban intersections and lack data on highway scenarios. Additionally, the perception tasks in the datasets are mainly MONO 3D due to limited synchronized data across multiple sensors. To bridge this gap, we propose Highway-V2X (H-V2X), the first large-scale highway Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) perception dataset captured by sensors in the real world. The dataset covers over 100 kilometers of highway, with a diverse range of road and weather conditions. H-V2X consists of over 1.9 million fine-grained categorized samples in BEV space, captured by multiple synchronized cameras, with vector map provided. We performed joint 2D-3D calibrations to ensure correct projection and human labor was involved to ensure data quality. Furthermore, we propose three highly relevant tasks to the highway scenario: BEV detection, BEV tracking, and trajectory prediction. We conducted benchmarks for each task, and innovative methods incorporating vector map information were proposed. We hope that H-V2X and benchmark methods will facilitate highway BEV perception research direction. The dataset is available at https://pan.quark.cn/s/86d19da10d18 + +Keywords: V2X, Dataset, BEV Detection, Tracking, Prediction + +![](images/b840c9877d5fb4f5641692d742189e39233cda975a6c7f7a9c10934353156e0c.jpg) +Fig. 1: We introduce H-V2X, the first large scale highway dataset captured from real-world scenario and sensors. H-V2X provides synchronized sensor data, vector map, projection parameters and 3D ground truth, enabling end-to-end highway BEV perception. + +# 1 Introduction + +The highway is pivotal in transportation, but persistent safety concerns remain unresolved. While the development of intelligent vehicles presents a potential + +and practical solution to address human-driver-related issues such as fatigue, distraction, and unsafe driving practices, the adoption of vehicle intelligence is still in its nascent stages. It is noteworthy that the majority of vehicles on the highway lack advanced driver assistance systems. + +Conversely, there is substantial promise in the emerging research focus on roadside infrastructure, particularly within vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. V2X has the potential to significantly enhance driving safety by leveraging sensors installed along the roadside to perceive the surrounding environment of the ego-car and subsequently communicate with it through network connections such as 5G or Road-Side-Unit (RSU). There have been several works that focus on city roadside perception by constructing roadside infrastructure datasets (sec2.1), and successive works that focus on 3D perception given the data (sec2.2). However, when considering highway roadside perception, the existing datasets are not directly applicable for training neural networks due to differences in scenarios, sensors and tasks. + +To address the disparities and advance the study of highway roadside perception, we are introducing Highway-V2X (H-V2X), a large-scale 3D perception dataset presented in Bird's Eye View (BEV) space. This dataset was captured in real world highway scenarios, with sensors strategically mounted on masts. Encompassing over 100 kilometers of highway, the dataset leverages cameras and radars, complemented by a local vector map converted from High-Definition Map (HMap). In comparison to previous V2X datasets, H-V2X offers the following distinct characteristics: + +1. Emphasis on Highway Scenarios: The dataset is tailored specifically for highway scenarios, showcasing a data distribution that significantly differs from urban datasets. As depicted in the accompanying figure, large vehicles, in particular, feature prominently within this dataset (sec3.3). +2. Ground Truth Construction in BEV Space: Our dataset facilitates end-to-end perception across multiple sensors by establishing ground truths in BEV space. Furthermore, the ground truth data is sequentially organized, enabling sequential learning. +3. Sensor Utilization: H-V2X employs radars and cameras, including fisheye cameras to address blind spots beneath the mast, as illustrated in the figure1. Notably, lidars are not included due to impractical installation on highway mast. Consequently, constructing 3D ground truth presents a significant challenge, a facet we will delve into extensively in subsequent sections. +4. Unified ID Tracking: The dataset emphasizes unified ID tracking across multiple sensors within the actual trajectories of vehicles, rendering multi-object tracking (MOT) an even more formidable task. In essence, vehicles are tracked throughout their entire lifespan. + +To the best of our knowledge, H-V2X stands as the first large-scale dataset situated in a real-world highway scenario, incorporating BEV space attributes, sequential data, and multimodal sensing. We aim for this dataset to make a substantial contribution to the advancement of highway perception research. Leveraging the H-V2X dataset, we have also introduced three tasks accompanied + +by ground truths and metrics to facilitate research in highway perception, along with novel benchmark methods. + +To summarise, our contributions are outlined as follows: + +1. We release the H-V2X dataset, the first large-scale highway roadside infrastructure perception dataset collected using real-world data. In addition, ground truths are constructed in BEV space across multiple sensors, making end-to-end BEV learning possible. +2. Based on H-V2X, we introduce three tasks across multiple sensors, i.e., BEV detection, BEV tracking, and trajectory prediction. We comprehensively provide time and space aligned original sensor data, along with ground truths constructed by algorithms and human labor. +3. We present benchmark methods for each task, where novel neural nets are proposed incorporating HDMap information, designed to address perception across multiple sensors in BEV space. + +# 2 Related Works + +# 2.1 Roadside Infrastructure Datasets + +In this work, we focus on datasets that belong to the roadside rather than the vehicle side due to the significant variations in sensor perspectives and associated subtasks. For datasets relevant to autonomous vehicles from the vehicle side, we recommend referring to the autonomous driving datasets survey in [22, 39]. To enable autonomous driving vehicles to perceive long-range and blind-spot areas roadside perception (detailed in next section) and V2X datasets [6, 11, 14, 15, 18, 27, 35, 36, 38] have emerged as a new research direction. Among these works, roadside sensor data are provided in either simulated or real form, with scenarios focused on either urban or highway. A comprehensive comparison of these datasets can be found in table 1. Regarding simulated datasets, OPV2V [27] introduced a vehicle-to-vehicle simulated perception dataset featuring an average of 3 vehicles in the CARLA [7] simulator. Similarly, V2X-Sim [18] utilized CARLA and SUMO [16] to create a vehicle-to-RSU collaborative perception dataset. Additionally, Roadside-Opt [14] provided a roadside LiDARs dataset that focuses on sensor placement optimization, also using CARLA. These simulated datasets predominantly center on urban scenes, particularly intersections, with relatively limited representation of highway scenarios. On the other hand, roadside datasets captured by real sensors such as those proposed in [11, 35, 36, 38] use cameras or LiDARs in infrastructure-only or infrastructure-vehicle cooperative scenarios in urban areas. These datasets primarily support Mono3D detection tasks [11, 35, 36], as well as tracking and prediction tasks [38]. For highway scenarios, HighD [15] released a camera-based aerial perspective (top-down view) highway dataset using drones. A9-Dataset [6] released a 3km-long roadside Mono3D detection dataset using cameras and LiDARs. DAIR-V2X-V [36] released a highway Mono3D dataset but from the vehicle side. However, there is still a lack of a large-scale highway roadside dataset collected from real-world sensors, where vehicles pass across multiple roadside sensors, thus forming a BEV perception task. We believe that the H-V2X dataset can bridge this gap. + +Table 1: Roadside Perception Dataset Comparison. C:Camera, L:LiDAR, R:Radar + +

+ +# 2.2 Roadside Perception Methods + +Roadside perception refers to the use of roadside sensors to provide collaborative perception information for autonomous driving vehicles. M3D-RPN [2], Kinematic3D [3], MonoDLE [21], MonoFlex [40] and Imvoxelnet [23] were reimplemented for roadside camera-based monocular 3D detection on dataset Rope3D [35] and DAIR-V2X [36] as baseline methods. PointPillars [17], MVX-Net [24], Second [28], FIXOR [30] and VoxelNet [43] were reimplemented for LiDAR-based monocular 3D detection baseline methods in DAIR-V2X-C/I [36] and OPV2V [27] dataset. Additionally, TNT [42] and HiVT [44] are utilized as trajectory prediction baseline methods in V2X-Seq [38]. Beyond these baseline methods, which were adopted from recent works on autonomous detection tasks, InfraDet3D [45] proposed a multi-modal 3D detector that fuses LiDAR point clouds in an early fusion manner and incorporates camera detections in a late fusion manner. TransIFFTransIFF [5] and Quest [8] proposed instance-level feature fusion frameworks based on transformers by fusing infrastructure and vehicle side inputs. FFNet [37] proposed a flow-based feature fusion network that transmits feature flow instead of static features. BEVHeight [34] and BEVHeight++ [32] tackled roadside monocular 3D detection by predicting categorical height distribution per pixel to regress the height of vehicles to the ground. MonoGAE [33] proposed a ground-aware embedding by integrating implicit roadside ground information with a pixel-level ground plane equation map encoder. Furthermore, there is a line of work that addresses roadside perception from the perspective of multiagent cooperative perception by treating roadside input as one of the agents, as seen in Where2comm [12], SCOPE [31], CORE [26], etc. For a more comprehensive understanding of cooperative perception, we recommend referring to the V2X survey paper [20]. It is important to note that these roadside perception methods are limited in their ability to perform an across-sensors BEV perception task, as the most commonly used datasets (such as DAIR-V2X, Rope3D, etc.) do not provide synchronized sensor data across multiple sensors. Moreover, these methods currently lack the capability to handle fisheye cameras and incorporate HDMap information, which is essential for highway perception scenarios. + +# 3 H-V2X Dataset + +# 3.1 Setup + +Basic Information The roadside infrastructure dataset presented in this paper is derived from real-world highways, with sensors strategically mounted on masts situated in the midst of the road. This network of masts spans over 100 kilometers, ensuring near-complete coverage of the highway with minimal blind spots (except for occlusions caused by bridges, signs, etc.). The dataset encompasses diverse highway scenarios, encompassing long straight roads, sharp curves, elevated bridges, ramps, and more, presenting a comprehensive portrayal of all road conditions typically encountered in highway settings. Each mast has multi- + +![](images/b25eca4e8a8a77b54ab0b8b9e8f2e9bbc2ac0c29c18d9abe298ec1d052e1dbe2.jpg) +Fig. 2: Sensor Deployment Illustration.

A mobile edge computer (MEC) is installed on each mast for data collection. All hardware is synchronized using the NTP service deployed in the local cloud machine, and the time difference between sensors within the same mast is less than 50ms.

+ +Coordinates and Calibration There are three coordinate systems in the H-V2X dataset: image coordinate, camera coordinate, and world coordinate. The primary purpose of the H-V2X dataset is to project objects from the image coordinate system to the world coordinate system, which is a local vector map converted from High-Definition Map (HMap). We propose two calibration methods: a human calibration tool and an automated calibration algorithm. + +- Calibration Tool: Prior to installation on the masts, the intrinsics of the cameras undergo calibration using a chessboard calibration algorithm [41]. The calibration tool incorporates the intrinsics, vector map, and the camera video streams. Subsequently, a human operator can fine-tune the extrinsic parameters (x, y, z, yaw, pitch, roll) to ensure that the projection of the vector map aligns seamlessly with the visual lanes. A visual illustration of the calibration tool is provided in Fig .3. This process ensures that all cameras are calibrated uniformly to the same vector map, thereby guaranteeing cohesive 2D to 3D projection. +- Calibration Algorithm: To address the concern of sensor drifting, we present an automatic calibration algorithm. This algorithm leverages a segmentation model to extract visual lanes and optimizes the 3D matching score between vector map lanes and visual lanes using a bundle adjustment algorithm. The calibration algorithm runs on a daily basis to maintain the timely accuracy of the calibration. Furthermore, the algorithm's effectiveness is rigorously authenticated by human operators. + +![](images/5ccae6749e137d0416087f4c58963296d56c298a10f759da2dc9134d5695095d.jpg) +Fig. 3: Calibration Tool Examples.

Non-English characters are not relevant to the core contents of the paper and can be ignored. Sensitive information is masked out during calibration and GT generation for safety concerns. + +# 3.2 Data Acquisition & GT Generation + +Collection Once the sensors and vector map are accurately calibrated, we proceed to decode the camera streams and capture synchronized frames from the five cameras (2 long-range cameras, 2 short-range cameras, and 1 fisheye camera) at a rate of $10\mathrm{Hz}$ . These frames, along with the current calibration parameters, are stored using ros bag. To ensure diversity, meticulous human efforts were invested in collecting over 1.94 million frames in total, encompassing the following aspects: + +- Scenes. The dataset comprehensively covers nearly all highway scenes, including long straight roads, curved roads, interchanges, ramps, and more. +- Weather. The collected data encapsulates a wide spectrum of weather and time conditions, ranging from daytime and nighttime to varied atmospheric phenomena such as rainy, foggy, dusty, dawn, cloudy, etc. +- Traffic. Traffic conditions spans normal traffic flow, congested traffic flow, and instances of sparse traffic. + +Any invalid frames arising from network fluctuations are meticulously removed (all synchronized five frames are deleted if any one of them is deemed invalid) to uphold the high quality of the data. + +GT Generation In the context of roadside infrastructure 3D perception, the ground truth is typically annotated on the LiDAR point cloud, as in [35, 36]. However, in highway scenarios, the mounting of LiDARs on masts is impractical due to high cost, maintenance, durability, sensing range issues. As a viable alternative, we propose a novel BEV ground truth generation pipeline tailored for the camera-only highway scenario, as illustrated in Fig. 4. + +![](images/fc9da5e517edf277880e927ba6d9c32bd0790d6661c01c0fd6d12314915235a1.jpg) +Fig. 4: Ground Truth Generation Pipeline. + +- 2D Detection and Tracking. We chose the bounding box as the object representation and train a cloud foundation model using 122,445 annotated data. We incorporate semi-supervised learning to utilize more data, resulting in 370,000 frames in total, yielding a mean average precision of $0.95@IoU = 0.5$ , which provides solid results for subsequent modules. After obtaining the single frame object detection bounding box, a 2D multiple object tracking algorithm is added to smooth the bounding box size and provide a tracking ID for each object in the image plane. +- 2D to 3D Projection. Bboxes in the image plane are subsequently projected to the vector map coordinate system. Outliers resulting from false detections are filtered during projection by leveraging road boundary information from the vector map. +- Object Matching. For objects that travel across sensors, a minimum Euclidean distance Hungarian matching strategy is introduced to merge the same object observed by different cameras. +- Post Processing. An Extended Kalman Filter motion model for each object in BEV space to further smooth object trajectories. The tracking IDs for each object in BEV space are also generated in the post-processing module. + +Once the proposed GT generation pipeline is processed, human operators must further validate the data quality. They need to remove the samples that contain ghost trajectories (trajectories in the BEV space that do not match any object in the image frame) and trajectory breaks (trajectories that break abnormally or the same trajectory but tracking ID changes). Then, the remaining samples are labeled with four classes: sedan, van, bus, truck. These class labels are human-labeled during the 2D detection dataset construction phase, detected via 2D detectors, and passed through the pipeline. Velocity and heading angle are provided by radar observations. Finally, 17.56 million samples are generated. + +# 3.3 Statistics Analysis + +In total, we provide over 1.9 million samples and 17.6 million objects, with detailed statistical plots depicted in Fig 5. Figure (a) illustrates the object distribution based on the distance from the mast. Figure (b) showcases the category + +distribution, highlighting sedans and trucks as dominant categories. Figure (c) displays the velocity distribution, indicating that most vehicles travel at reasonably high speeds. Figure (d) presents the average velocity per category. Figure (e) exhibits the track length of vehicles, where tracks longer than 400 meters constitute $78.4\%$ of the dataset. Lastly, Figure (f) illustrates the average track length for each category. + +In essence, these statistics reveal the distinctive data distribution characteristics of highway scenarios in H-V2X. The dataset differs significantly from urban scene data, underscoring its value in highway perception research. + +![](images/cdf4762eb4f7c114d0c87b6802a9f9f1993cefa064a03718651df90c20544399.jpg) + +![](images/c185056723e06f47db0d976ee3b033b19905d4ec353ad1b908e7a411c1cca051.jpg) + +![](images/ebfe927372c408a0f60954827328e5bdc8b2371645a85327e69db5c80f5f9cd8.jpg) + +![](images/ac643b824aabdbee91ded8c88bcd83eaa7ae19265371fd6cda3b39a9e0c5f2fb.jpg) +Fig. 5: H-V2X Dataset Statistics Analysis. + +![](images/dfbafaa42133b007159acec313ad25109b53088a10bcd615d13bbb04e2649479.jpg) + +![](images/abc585ddc1f1981fdd2f79ef981010bed77a11637147cd12f58a71cbe0bf8592.jpg) + +# 4 Tasks + +# 4.1 Task 1: BEV Detection (H-V2X-Det) + +Task Description In a manner akin to the task definition in autonomous driving BEV perception [13], BEV detection in the H-V2X dataset aims to pinpoint objects in BEV space by extracting positions, angles, and velocities from images. However, this task exhibits distinctive characteristics as outlined below: + +- Extended detection range: The coverage typically spans approximately $\pm 500$ meters around the local principal point, significantly surpassing the detection range in traditional autonomous driving tasks (e.g., $\pm 60\mathrm{m}$ in [13], $\pm 75\mathrm{m}$ in [19]). Consequently, this task introduces challenges related to long-range detection in BEV settings, thereby influencing the design and integration of grid maps within the BEV algorithm. +- Diverse camera types: In highway scenarios, where comprehensive sensor coverage and an expanded field of view are imperative, various camera types are deployed, including long-focus, short-focus, and especially fisheye cameras. +- Integration of HDMap: The High-Definition Map (HDMap) serves as a critical input for the task, with lanes and boundaries depicted as line dots accompanied by appropriate labels, further enhancing the contextual information available for analysis. + +Formulation Given multiple sensor inputs at each timestamp $t$ , BEV detection tries to find a fitting neural net $F$ which calculates the 3D information of objects in all image views, forming a ten-tuple: + +$$ +(c l s, c o n f, x, y, z, w, l, h, y a w, c o l o r) = F \left(\left(I _ {0}, I _ {1}, I _ {2}, I _ {3}, I _ {4}\right), M\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +where: + +- $I_{i}$ represents each image of the five cameras in JPEG BGR format. Resolutions of long-range and short-range camera images are 1920x1080x3 and 1080x1080x3 for fisheye cameras. +- $M$ represents the HDMap, which provides static road information by lines of 3D points. +- $cls$ , $conf$ represent class label, confidence respectively. +- $x, y, z, w, l, h$ represent 3D location in BEV space. +- yaw represents the heading angle of the object, defined by moving direction. +- color represents the object's color if the object belongs to the vehicle class. + +Evaluation & Metrics We choose AP and FPS as BEV detection metrics. + +Average Precision (AP). We choose 40 recall positions to eval detection performance, i.e., $\mathrm{AP}|_{R40}$ : + +$$ +\left. A P \right| _ {R 4 0} = \frac {1}{| R |} \sum_ {r \in R} \max _ {\tilde {r}: \tilde {r} \geq r} \rho (\tilde {r}) \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\rho (\tilde{r})$ is the precision at a certain recall threshold $\mathbf{r}\in \{1 / 40,2 / 40,3 / 40,\dots,1\}$ + +Frame Per Second(FPS). We use the FPS metric to measure the real-time performance of the neural net, i.e., $FPS = \frac{1}{t(s)}$ , where $t(s)$ is the cost time required to detect a single frame input given by specific GFLOPS. + +# 4.2 Task 2:OneID MOT (H-V2X-Trk) + +Task Description The MOT task is centered around establishing and maintaining a unique ID for each relevant traffic participant. There are two primary paradigms in MOT based on whether detection is performed separately: + +- Tracking-by-detection: This method follows a two-stage process. Initially, a detection algorithm locates objects in each frame. Subsequently, a tracking algorithm utilizes the detection results from consecutive frames to associate new objects with historical trajectories, determining optimal matches and assigning correct IDs to newly detected objects. +- Joint detection and tracking: In this integrated approach, detection and tracking occur simultaneously through an end-to-end algorithm, often a specialized deep neural network. This network not only learns detection features but also captures embedding or re-identification (reid) features to differentiate between individual objects. Consequently, the network can simultaneously determine object positions and IDs during each inference step on successive image pairs. + +Formulation The input consists of sequential images, while the output encompasses comprehensive 3D object details, including position and attributes, with a unique ID assigned to each object. The trajectory of each object can be extracted and represented as $S = \{o_1,o_2,o_3,\dots,o_T\}$ , where $T$ denotes the time-frame. Subsequent applications can benefit from velocity estimation, orientation optimization, and post-processing techniques based on historical trajectories. + +Evaluation & Metrics In line with the recent trend [4,25,38], we adopt widely accepted evaluation metrics MOTA (Multiple Object Tracking Accuracy) and MOTP (Multiple Object Tracking Precision) to evaluate the performance of tracking methods. The definitions are as follows: + +$$ +M O T A = 1 - \frac {\sum_ {t} \left(F N _ {t} + F P _ {t} + I D S _ {t}\right)}{\sum_ {t} G T _ {t}}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where: + +- $FN_{t}$ represents the number of false negatives at the time (t), +- $FP_{t}$ represents the number of false positives at the time (t), +- $IDS_{t}$ represents the number of identity switches (mismatches in object associations) at the time (t), +- $GT_{t}$ represents the number of ground truth objects at a time (t). + +$$ +M O T P = \frac {\sum_ {i , j} d _ {i j}}{\sum_ {i} C _ {i}}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where: + +- $d_{ij}$ represents the Euclidean distance between the center of the predicted bounding box and the center of the corresponding ground truth bounding box for object $i$ at frame $j$ , +- $C_i$ represents the number of correct associations for object $i$ . + +In addition, we employ IDS (ID Switch) as a standalone metric to assess the tracking algorithm's proficiency in preserving target identity consistency. The IDS metric is calculated by dividing the total number of ID switches by the overall count of ground-truth objects. + +# 4.3 Task 3: Trajectory Prediction (H-V2X-Prediction) + +Task Description The trajectory prediction task aims to predict the continuous trajectories of objects over a future period based on the observed history trajectories. + +Formulation Given the history trajectory of one object, the trajectory prediction task tries to find the optimal future trajectory of the object by modeling a sequential forecasting net $F$ : + +where: + +$$ +p _ {t + 1}, p _ {t + 2}, p _ {t + 3}, \dots , p _ {t + T} = F \left(p _ {1}, p _ {2}, p _ {3}, \dots , p _ {t}, M\right) \tag {5} +$$ + +- $p_t$ denotes the state of the object at timestamp $t$ , $T$ represents the number of timestamps to predict, $M$ denotes HDMap, same as task 1. +- The state of the object is defined by the output of task 2, i.e., 3D information with tracking ID. + +Evaluation & Metrics We choose Average Displacement Error (ADE) and Final Displacement Error (FDE) as trajectory prediction metrics. + +ADE.

Both use 8:1:1 train/validation/test split. + +- **Baseline1 Late Fusion.** Late fusion follows the same pipeline as GT generation in section 3.2. However, due to limited computing resources on the 32TOPS NVIDIA Xavier, it uses a lightweight YOLOs [9] detection model instead of a cloud-side foundation model. +- **Baseline2 Early Fusion.** We propose H-BEV (Highway BEV) model, a BEV detection neural net incorporating fisheye camera and vector map. The model is built on BEVDet [13], learns depth distribution and constructs frustum point cloud, illustrated in Fig. 6. To create the projection coordinates of each camera's pixel points in the BEV perspective, we used 3D lane information for interpolation. We generated the frustum point cloud for each camera through a table lookup and added a attribute branch to predict vehicle attribute information. + +![](images/4a053af5f524b821cd550f9182671c1e37a35954e7049084861b4648ae2eaf01.jpg) +Fig. 6: H-BEV Model Architecture. + +# Analysis + +- Late Fusion vs Early Fusion. Early fusion outperforms Late Fusion in terms of detection performance, but Late Fusion requires less time. Late Fusion is more sensitive to calibration parameters and performs poorly in detecting truncated and occluded objects, whereas early fusion is more robust. +- HMap information is important. H-BEV streamlines the projection process for fisheye and pinhole cameras by incorporating HMap data. Unlike BevDet [13], H-BEV eliminates the need to learn a multitude of discrete depth values for each image pixel. Instead, it derives a single depth value + +from HDMap information, resulting in a drastic reduction in the image feature map size by 500 times. This optimization significantly boosts the speed and efficiency of the early fusion model. + +Table 3: Evaluation results for the baseline methods. The H-BEV model is converted to TensorRT engine.

+ +# 5.2 Track2: One-ID MOT + +Baseline In this section, we present a tracking-by-detection MOT algorithm as the baseline approach. We utilize BEV detection results from multiple cameras to trace the trajectory of each object within the perception region, illustrated in Fig. 7. We adapt a variant of the SORT algorithm [1] to establish associations between objects across successive frames. This leads to the assignment of consistent IDs to individual objects, resulting in continuous object trajectories. + +![](images/6129ebc04b6f5be1f7f37c44b184b70ef2eab830e43624f88965426b65e8d1aa.jpg) +Fig. 7: One-ID MOT Framework: a baseline tracking-by-detection procedure + +Each detected traffic object at time $t - 1$ is denoted as $o_{t - 1}^i$ , where $i$ represents the object index. The set of objects in frame $t - 1$ is represented as $I_{t - 1}$ , with $o_{t - 1}^i \in I_{t - 1}$ . At each timestamp $t$ , the primary objective of the tracking process is to link the objects from the previous frame $(I_{t - 1})$ and the current frame $(I_t)$ , assigning accurate IDs to new detections. To achieve this, we compute similarities between objects in $I_{t - 1}$ and $I_t$ based on their feature descriptors, facilitating the establishment of continuous object trajectories through optimal matches. + +For the baseline implementation, we adopt the 3D position as the object descriptor, measuring object similarities using Euclidean distances between 3D points. Object matching between frames is accomplished using the Hungarian algorithm. Given the fast movement of most highway objects, an effective motion estimation technique is essential to compensate for positional changes between consecutive frames. Here, we employ the Kalman filter algorithm, utilizing the local coordinates $(x,y,z)$ of 3D points as measurements and incorporating + +first-order differences (velocity components $(vx,vy,vz)$ ) into the state transition matrix. + +Analysis The evaluation results of the baseline MOT method can be found in Table 4. In highway environments, conducting multi-object tracking on 3D points presents various challenges such as high-speed motion, occlusions, missing or false detections, positional ambiguity among nearby objects, and more. Common features in highway scenes like overpasses and oversized vehicles often lead to scenarios where smaller cars remain completely occluded for extended periods. Addressing these complexities requires the integration of effective prediction strategies and motion constraints. Additionally, when multiple vehicles are in close proximity and moving concurrently, relying solely on simple Euclidean distance matching between points can result in confusion and inaccuracies. + +Table 4: Evaluation results for One-ID MOT algorithm. + +

+ +# 5.3 Track3: Trajectory Prediction + +Baselines We first build trajectory prediction models based on SocialGAN [10] and further propose an HD-GAN network by incorporating HDMap. + +- Basline1 Vanilla SocialGAN: During training, we augment trajectory data by adding random noise to observed positions (0.5 prob. for $[-2\mathrm{m}, 2\mathrm{m}]$ ) and applying Gaussian noise to observed directions $[-0.785\mathrm{rad}, 0.785\mathrm{rad}]$ . We train the model for 500000 iterations, leaving other settings unchanged. +- **Baseline2 HD-GAN:** We propose HD-GAN, a network that uses global map information to extract the global positional feature of an object. The HDMap Layer takes in lane information and calculates the object's global position via interpolation, normalizing it to [0,1] in the HDMap Normalization Layer. The HDMap Encoder Layer encodes the object's global map positional features, which are then combined with the local positional features of the observed trajectory. The generator and discriminator network remain unchanged, and the training strategy is the same as baseline 1. + +![](images/377b351adaa85d07a2a0d441b38dbc454a0450b855e3c61355033f450e622018.jpg) +Fig. 8: HD-GAN Model Architecture. + +# Analysis + +- Global Map Information is useful. In comparison to the re-implemented vanilla SocialGAN, HD-GAN demonstrates superior performance with lower ADE and FDE metrics. These results indicate that as the prediction horizon extends, the utilization of global map information becomes increasingly valuable. Additionally, as illustrated in Fig. 9 (a) vs (b), the vanilla SocialGAN struggles to generate predictions aligned with the road map under identical observations. These findings underscore the efficacy of incorporating global map data in HD-GAN for enhancing trajectory prediction accuracy. +- Benefits of Data Augmentation. As depicted in Fig. 9 (c) vs (d), the absence of data augmentation leads to increased prediction errors when the observed trajectory exhibits jitter. Conversely, models employing our data augmentation techniques showcase enhanced resilience to observed trajectory variations, as evidenced by their improved anti-interference capabilities compared to models without such augmentation methods. + +Table 5: Evaluation results for different baselines on val dataset.

H-V2X offers synchronized data from multiple sensors with ground truth annotations, accompanied by a vector map, enabling end-to-end highway BEV perception. The tasks of BEV detection, One-ID MOT, and trajectory prediction are outlined, alongside benchmark methodologies for each task. Novel approaches to highway BEV detection and trajectory prediction, integrating the vector map, are proposed and evaluated through both quantitative and qualitative experiments to validate their efficacy. In our upcoming work, we aim to release a highway traffic event task focusing on rare occurrences such as illegal parking, emergency stops, accidents, and more, which will be systematically collected and annotated. + +# References + +1.

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has become an area of interest in research due to the availability of roadside infrastructure perception datasets. However, these datasets primarily focus on urban intersections and lack data on highway scenarios. Additionally, the perception tasks in the datasets are mainly MONO 3D due to limited synchronized data across multiple sensors. To bridge this gap, we propose Highway-V2X (H-V2X), the first large-scale highway Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) perception dataset captured by sensors in the real world. The dataset covers over 100 kilometers of highway, with a diverse range of road and weather conditions. H-V2X consists of over 1.9 million fine-grained categorized samples in BEV space, captured by multiple synchronized cameras, with vector map provided. We performed joint 2D-3D calibrations to ensure correct projection and human labor was involved to ensure data quality. Furthermore, we propose three highly relevant tasks to the highway scenario: BEV detection, BEV tracking, and trajectory prediction. We conducted benchmarks for each task, and innovative methods incorporating vector map information were proposed. We hope that H-V2X and benchmark methods will facilitate highway BEV perception research direction.

For datasets relevant to autonomous vehicles from the vehicle side, we recommend referring to the autonomous driving datasets survey in [22, 39]. To enable autonomous driving vehicles to perceive long-range and blind-spot areas roadside perception (detailed in next section) and V2X datasets [6, 11, 14, 15, 18, 27, 35, 36, 38] have emerged as a new research direction. Among these works, roadside sensor data are provided in either simulated or real form, with scenarios focused on either urban or highway. A comprehensive comparison of these datasets can be found in table 1. Regarding simulated datasets, OPV2V [27] introduced a vehicle-to-vehicle simulated perception dataset featuring an average of 3 vehicles in the CARLA [7] simulator. Similarly, V2X-Sim [18] utilized CARLA and SUMO [16] to create a vehicle-to-RSU collaborative perception dataset. Additionally, Roadside-Opt [14] provided a roadside LiDARs dataset that focuses on sensor placement optimization, also using CARLA. These simulated datasets predominantly center on urban scenes, particularly intersections, with relatively limited representation of highway scenarios. On the other hand, roadside datasets captured by real sensors such as those proposed in [11, 35, 36, 38] use cameras or LiDARs in infrastructure-only or infrastructure-vehicle cooperative scenarios in urban areas. These datasets primarily support Mono3D detection tasks [11, 35, 36], as well as tracking and prediction tasks [38]. For highway scenarios, HighD [15] released a camera-based aerial perspective (top-down view) highway dataset using drones. A9-Dataset [6] released a 3km-long roadside Mono3D detection dataset using cameras and LiDARs. DAIR-V2X-V [36] released a highway Mono3D dataset but from the vehicle side. However, there is still a lack of a large-scale highway roadside dataset collected from real-world sensors, where vehicles pass across multiple roadside sensors, thus forming a BEV perception task.

M3D-RPN [2], Kinematic3D [3], MonoDLE [21], MonoFlex [40] and Imvoxelnet [23] were reimplemented for roadside camera-based monocular 3D detection on dataset Rope3D [35] and DAIR-V2X [36] as baseline methods. PointPillars [17], MVX-Net [24], Second [28], FIXOR [30] and VoxelNet [43] were reimplemented for LiDAR-based monocular 3D detection baseline methods in DAIR-V2X-C/I [36] and OPV2V [27] dataset. Additionally, TNT [42] and HiVT [44] are utilized as trajectory prediction baseline methods in V2X-Seq [38]. Beyond these baseline methods, which were adopted from recent works on autonomous detection tasks, InfraDet3D [45] proposed a multi-modal 3D detector that fuses LiDAR point clouds in an early fusion manner and incorporates camera detections in a late fusion manner. TransIFFTransIFF [5] and Quest [8] proposed instance-level feature fusion frameworks based on transformers by fusing infrastructure and vehicle side inputs. FFNet [37] proposed a flow-based feature fusion network that transmits feature flow instead of static features. BEVHeight [34] and BEVHeight++ [32] tackled roadside monocular 3D detection by predicting categorical height distribution per pixel to regress the height of vehicles to the ground. MonoGAE [33] proposed a ground-aware embedding by integrating implicit roadside ground information with a pixel-level ground plane equation map encoder. Furthermore, there is a line of work that addresses roadside perception from the perspective of multiagent cooperative perception by treating roadside input as one of the agents, as seen in Where2comm [12], SCOPE [31], CORE [26], etc. For a more comprehensive understanding of cooperative perception, we recommend referring to the V2X survey paper [20]. It is important to note that these roadside perception methods are limited in their ability to perform an across-sensors BEV perception task, as the most commonly used datasets (such as DAIR-V2X, Rope3D, etc.) do not provide synchronized sensor data across multiple sensors. Moreover, these methods currently lack the capability to handle fisheye cameras and incorporate HDMap information, which is essential for highway perception scenarios." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 11, + 39, + 18 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 11, + 39, + 18 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 33, + 11, + 39, + 18 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "4" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 10, + 128, + 20 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 10, + 128, + 20 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 10, + 128, + 20 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "L.

Common features in highway scenes like overpasses and oversized vehicles often lead to scenarios where smaller cars remain completely occluded for extended periods. Addressing these complexities requires the integration of effective prediction strategies and motion constraints. Additionally, when multiple vehicles are in close proximity and moving concurrently, relying solely on simple Euclidean distance matching between points can result in confusion and inaccuracies." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "type": "table", + "bbox": [ + 121, + 198, + 291, + 231 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 89, + 186, + 321, + 198 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 89, + 186, + 321, + 198 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 89, + 186, + 321, + 198 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Table 4: Evaluation results for One-ID MOT algorithm." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4, + "angle": 0, + "type": "table_caption" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 121, + 198, + 291, + 231 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 121, + 198, + 291, + 231 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 121, + 198, + 291, + 231 + ], + "type": "table", + "html": "

Our answer is affirmative since we observe large mutual information between anchor attributes and the hash grid features. Based on this observation, we propose a Hash-grid Assisted Context (HAC) framework, where our core idea is to jointly learn structured compact hash grid (binarized for each hash parameter) and use it for context modeling of anchor attributes. Specifically, with Scaffold-GS [27] as our base model, for each anchor, we query the hash grid by the anchor location to obtain an interpolated hash feature, which is then used to predict the value distributions of anchor attributes, facilitating entropy coding such as Arithmetic Coding (AE) [41] for a highly compact representation of the model. Note that we employ Scaffold-GS as our base model as its anchor-centered design provides a good foundation to establish relations with these interpolated hash features. Furthermore, we introduce an Adaptive Quantization Module (AQM), which dynamically adjusts different quantization step sizes for different anchor attributes for retaining of their original information.

This initial perception leads us to assume anchor attributes are also consistent in space. Our main idea is to leverage the well-structured hash grid to unveil the inherent spatial consistencies of the unorganized anchors. Please also refer to experiments in Fig. 7 to observe this consistency. To verify mutual information between the hash grid and anchors, we first explore substituting anchor features \\( \\pmb{f}^a \\) with hash features \\( \\pmb{f}^h \\) that are acquired by interpolation using the anchor location \\( \\pmb{x}^a \\) on the hash grid \\( \\mathcal{H} \\), defined as \\( \\pmb{f}^h \\coloneqq \\mathrm{Interp}(\\pmb{x}^a, \\mathcal{H}) \\).

Nonetheless, we find the fidelity degradation remains moderate, suggesting the existence of rich mutual information between \\( \\pmb{f}^h \\) and \\( \\pmb{f}^a \\).

However, the substantial Gaussians and their associated attributes necessitate effective compression techniques. Nevertheless, the + +sparse and unorganized nature of the point cloud of Gaussians (or anchors in our paper) presents challenges for compression. To address this, we make use of the relations between the unorganized anchors and the structured hash grid, leveraging their mutual information for context modeling, and propose a Hash-grid Assisted Context (HAC) framework for highly compact 3DGS representation. Our approach introduces a binary hash grid to establish continuous spatial consistencies, allowing us to unveil the inherent spatial relations of anchors through a carefully designed context model. To facilitate entropy coding, we utilize Gaussian distributions to accurately estimate the probability of each quantized attribute, where an adaptive quantization module is proposed to enable high-precision quantization of these attributes for improved fidelity restoration. Additionally, we incorporate an adaptive masking strategy to eliminate invalid Gaussians and anchors. Importantly, our work is the pioneer to explore context-based compression for 3DGS representation, resulting in a remarkable size reduction of over $75 \times$ compared to vanilla 3DGS, while simultaneously improving fidelity, and achieving over $11 \times$ size reduction over SoTA 3DGS compression approach Scaffold-GS. Our code is available here. + +Keywords: 3D Gaussian Splatting $\cdot$ Compression $\cdot$ Context Models + +# 1 Introduction + +Over the past few years, significant advancements have been made in 3D scene representations for novel view synthesis. Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) [28] proposes rendering colors by accumulating RGB values along sampling rays using an implicit Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), aiming at reconstructing photorealistic images. However, the extensive sampling of ray points has been a bottleneck, affecting both the speed of training and rendering. Recent advances of NeRF [5, 13, 30] introduce feature grids to enhance the rendering process, facilitating faster rendering speeds by reducing the MLP size. Despite the improvement, these approaches still suffer from relatively slow rendering speeds due to frequent ray point sampling. + +In this context, very recently, a new paradigm of 3D representation, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [19], emerged. 3DGS introduces learnable Gaussians to directly represent 3D space explicitly. These Gaussians, initialized from Structure-from-Motion (SfM) [35] and endowed with learnable shape and appearance parameters, can be directly splatted onto 2D planes for rapid and differentiable rendering within imperceptible intervals using tile-based rasterization [21]. As such, the time-consuming volume rendering used in NeRF can be completely removed. The advantages of rapid differentiable rendering with high photo-realistic fidelity have stimulated the fast and widespread adoption of 3DGS in the field. + +However, 3DGS is not the ultimate solution. One major drawback is that it requires a considerable number of 3D Gaussians to well represent a large-scale scene (e.g., at the scale of millions of Gaussians for city-scale scenes) and needs a large storage space (e.g., a few GigaBytes (GB)) to store the associated + +Gaussian attributes for each scene [42]. This motivates us to investigate effective compression techniques for 3DGS. + +Due to their sparse and unorganized nature, compressing 3D Gaussians is challenging and difficult [6,12]. Therefore, most existing 3DGS compression approaches focus solely on parameter "values" but overlook their structural relations. For example, as illustrated in Fig. 1 middle, parameter pruning can be used to mask out the Gaussians whose parameter values are below a certain threshold [11, 22]. Another straightforward technique is to apply vector quantization to cluster parameters with similar "values". Such an approach enables the direct compression of parameters by only retaining more representative ones while maintaining reconstruction fidelity [11, 22, 31, 32]. Nevertheless, solely concentrating on "values" fails to eliminate structural redundancies, which are pivotal for compact representations. To exploit such spatial relations of Gaussians, Scaffold-GS [27] introduces anchors to cluster related nearby 3D Gaussians and neural-predict their attributes from the anchors' attributes, resulting in significant storage savings. Despite the improvement, Scaffold-GS still treats each anchor independently, and there are still substantial anchors that are sparse, unorganized, and hard to compress, due to their point-cloud nature. + +To further push the boundary of 3DGS compression, we draw inspiration from the NeRF series [28], contemplating the idea of representing 3D space using well-organized feature grids [5, 30]. We pose the question: Is there inherent relations between the attributes of unorganized anchors in Scaffold-GS and the structured feature grids? Our answer is affirmative since we observe large mutual information between anchor attributes and the hash grid features. Based on this observation, we propose a Hash-grid Assisted Context (HAC) framework, where our core idea is to jointly learn structured compact hash grid (binarized for each hash parameter) and use it for context modeling of anchor attributes. Specifically, with Scaffold-GS [27] as our base model, for each anchor, we query the hash grid by the anchor location to obtain an interpolated hash feature, which is then used to predict the value distributions of anchor attributes, facilitating entropy coding such as Arithmetic Coding (AE) [41] for a highly compact representation of the model. Note that we employ Scaffold-GS as our base model as its anchor-centered design provides a good foundation to establish relations with these interpolated hash features. Furthermore, we introduce an Adaptive Quantization Module (AQM), which dynamically adjusts different quantization step sizes for different anchor attributes for retaining of their original information. Learnable masks are also employed to mask out invalid Gaussians and anchors, further enhancing the compression ratio. Our main contributions can be summarized as follows: + +1. To our knowledge, we are the first to model contexts for 3DGS compression, i.e., using a structured hash grid to exploit the inherent consistencies among unorganized 3D Gaussians (or anchors in Scaffold-GS). +2. To facilitate efficient entropy encoding of anchor attributes, we propose to use the interpolated hash feature to neural-predict the value distribution of anchor attributes as well as neural-predicting quantization step refinement + +with AQM. We also employ learnable masks to prune out ineffective Gaussians and anchors. + +3. Extensive experiments on five datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our HAC framework and each technical component. We achieve a compression ratio of $11 \times$ over our base model Scaffold-GS and $75 \times$ over the vanilla 3DGS model when averaged over all datasets, while with comparable or even improved fidelity. + +# 2 Related Work + +Neural Radiance Field and its compression. The emergence of Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) [28] has significantly advanced novel view synthesis by employing a single learnable implicit MLP to generate arbitrary views of 3D scenes through $\alpha$ -composed accumulation of RGB values along a ray. However, the dense querying of sampling points and the utilization of a large MLP hinder real-time rendering. To address this problem, subsequent approaches such as Instant-NGP [30], TensoRF [5], K-planes [13], and DVGO [39] adopt explicit grid-based representations to facilitate faster training and rendering by reducing the size of the MLP, which however comes at the cost of increased storage space. + +To mitigate the storage increase, compression techniques focusing on reducing the size of explicit representations have been developed, which can be categorized into either "value"-based or structural-relation-based approaches. The former category includes pruning [10, 25], codebooks [25, 26], and methods like quantization or entropy constraint employed in BiRF [37] and SHACIRA [15]. On the other hand, the latter category explores structural relations via wavelet decomposition [34], rank-residual decomposition [40], or spatial prediction [38] to eliminate spatial redundancy, thanks to the well-structured characteristics of these feature grids. CNC [7] provides a solid proof of concept by sufficiently utilizing such structural information, achieving remarkable RD performance gain. + +3D Gaussian Splatting and its compression. 3DGS [19] has innovatively addressed the challenge of slow training and rendering in NeRF while maintaining high-fidelity quality by representing 3D scenes with 3D Gaussians endowed with learnable shape and appearance attributes. By adopting differentiable splatting and tile-based rasterization [21], 3D Gaussians are optimized during training to best fit their local 3D regions. Despite its advantages, the substantial Gaussians and their associated attributes necessitate effective compression techniques. + +Unlike NeRF-based feature grids, 3D Gaussians in 3DGS are sparse and unorganized, presenting significant challenges for establishing structural relations. Consequently, compression approaches have primarily focused solely on the "value" of model parameters, employing techniques such as pruning [11,22], codebooks [11,22,31,32], and entropy constraints [14]. To our knowledge, Scaffolds-GS [27] and Morgenstern et al. [29] have explored the relations of Gaussians. In [27], authors introduce anchor-centered features to achieve reduced parameter numbers, while in [29] dimension collapsing is considered to compress Gaussians in an ordered 2D space. However, their investigation of spatial redundancy remains insufficient. + +In this paper, we emphasize leveraging such structural relations for compression is crucial. For instance, approaches in image compression [8,16,17] and video compression [23,24,36] have demonstrated the effectiveness of eliminating structural redundancy by excavating spatial and temporal relations, thanks to their well-organized data structure. Motivated by this, with Scaffold-GS as our base model, we introduce a well-structured hash grid as context to model the inherent consistencies of the sparse and unorganized anchors, achieving much more compact 3DGS representation. + +# 3 Methods + +In Fig. 2, we conceptualize our HAC framework. In particular, HAC is based on the baseline Scaffold-GS [27] (Fig. 2 top), which introduces anchors with their attributes $\mathcal{A}$ (feature, scaling and offsets) to cluster and neural-predict 3D Gaussian attributes (opacity, RGB, scale, and quaternion). At the core of our HAC, we propose to jointly learn structured compact hash grid (binarized for each parameter) that can be queried at any anchor location to obtain the interpolated hash feature $f^h$ (Fig. 2 middle). Instead of directly substituting anchor feature, $f^h$ is used as context to predict the value distributions of anchor attributes, which is essential for the subsequent entropy coding, i.e., Arithmetic Coding (AE). Our context model (Fig. 2 bottom) is a simple MLP that takes $f^h$ as input and outputs $\boldsymbol{r}$ for the adaptive quantization module (AQM) (quantize anchor attribute values into a finite set) and the Gaussian parameters ( $\mu$ and $\sigma$ ) for modeling the value distributions of anchor attributes, from which we can compute the probability of each quantized attribute value for AE. Note that we draw two MLPs $(\mathrm{MLP_q}$ and $\mathrm{MLP_c}$ ) in Fig. 2 for easy explanation but they actually share the same MLP layers with outputs at different dimensions. Besides, an adaptive offset masking module (Fig. 2 top-left) is adopted to prune redundant Gaussians and anchors. In the following, we first introduce the background and then delve into the detailed technical components of our HAC. + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [19] represents a 3D scene using numerous Gaussians and renders viewpoints through a differentiable splatting and tile-based rasterization. Each Gaussian is initialized from SfM and defined by a 3D covariance matrix $\pmb{\Sigma} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ and location (mean) $\pmb{\mu} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , + +$$ +G (\boldsymbol {x}) = \exp \left(- \frac {1}{2} (\boldsymbol {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu}) ^ {\top} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {- 1} (\boldsymbol {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu})\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\pmb{x} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ is a random 3D point, and $\pmb{\Sigma}$ is defined by a diagonal matrix $\pmb{S} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ representing scaling and rotation matrix $\pmb{R} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ to guarantee its positive semi-definite characteristics, such that $\pmb{\Sigma} = \pmb{R}\pmb{S}\pmb{S}^{\top}\pmb{R}^{\top}$ . To render an image from a random viewpoint, 3D Gaussians are first splatted to 2D, and render the pixel value $\pmb{C} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ using $\alpha$ -composed blending, + +![](images/c4d6ea7283cb65b8c912789fedc89e3d0c90d724d958092440c021d040c5477d.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overview of our HAC framework. It is based on Scaffold-GS [27] (top), which introduces anchors with their attributes to neural-predict 3D Gaussian attributes. Middle: Our HAC framework jointly learns structured compact hash grid (binarized for each parameter) that can be queried at any anchor location to obtain the interpolated hash feature $\pmb{f}^{h}$ . Instead of direct substitution, $\pmb{f}^{h}$ is used as context to predict the value distributions of anchor attributes, which is essential for the subsequent entropy coding. Bottom: Our proposed context models take $\pmb{f}^{h}$ as input and outputs $\pmb{r}$ for the AQM (quantize anchor attribute values into a finite set) and the parameters $(\mu$ and $\sigma$ ) to model the value distributions of anchor attributes. + +$$ +\boldsymbol {C} = \sum_ {i \in I} \boldsymbol {c} _ {i} \alpha_ {i} \prod_ {j = 1} ^ {i - 1} (1 - \alpha_ {j}) \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}^1$ measures the opacity of each Gaussian after 2D projection, $c \in \mathbb{R}^3$ is view-dependent color modeled by Spherical Harmonic (SH) coefficients, and $I$ is the number of sorted Gaussians contributing to the rendering. + +Scaffold-GS [27] adheres to the framework of 3DGS and introduces a more storage-friendly and fidelity-satisfying anchor-based approach. It utilizes anchors to cluster Gaussians and deduce their attributes from the attributes of attached anchors through MLPs, rather than directly storing them. Specifically, each anchor consists of a location $\pmb{x}^a \in \mathbb{R}^3$ and anchor attributes $\mathcal{A} = \{\pmb{f}^a \in \mathbb{R}^{D^a}, l \in \mathbb{R}^6, \pmb{o} \in \mathbb{R}^{3K}\}$ , where each component represents anchor feature, scaling and offsets, respectively. During rendering, $\pmb{f}^a$ is inputted into MLPs to generate attributes for Gaussians, whose locations are determined by adding $\pmb{x}^a$ and $\pmb{o}$ , where $l$ is utilized to regularize both locations and shapes of the Gaussians. While Scaffold-GS has demonstrated effectiveness via this anchor-centered design, we contend there is still significant redundancy among inherent consistencies of anchors that we can fully exploit for a more compact 3DGS representation. + +# 3.2 Bridging Anchors and Hash Grid + +We begin the analysis by intuitively considering neighboring Gaussians share similar parameters inferred from anchor attributes. This initial perception leads us to assume anchor attributes are also consistent in space. Our main idea is to leverage the well-structured hash grid to unveil the inherent spatial consistencies of the unorganized anchors. Please also refer to experiments in Fig. 7 to observe this consistency. To verify mutual information between the hash grid and anchors, we first explore substituting anchor features $\pmb{f}^a$ with hash features $\pmb{f}^h$ that are acquired by interpolation using the anchor location $\pmb{x}^a$ on the hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ , defined as $\pmb{f}^h \coloneqq \mathrm{Interp}(\pmb{x}^a, \mathcal{H})$ . Here, $\mathcal{H} = \{\pmb{\theta}_i^l \in \mathbb{R}^{D^h} | i = 1, \dots, T^l | l = 1, \dots, L\}$ represents the hash gird, where $D^h$ is the dimension of vector $\pmb{\theta}_i^l$ , $T^l$ is the table size of the grid for level $l$ , and $L$ is the number of levels. We conduct a preliminary experiment on the Synthetic-NeRF dataset [28] to assess its performance, as shown in the right panel of Fig. 3. Direct substitution using hash features appears to yield inferior fidelity and introduces drawbacks such as unstable training (due to its impact on anchor spawning processes) and decreased testing FPS (owing to the extra interpolation operation). These results may further degrade if $l$ and $o$ are also substituted for a more compact model. Nonetheless, we find the fidelity degradation remains moderate, suggesting the existence of rich mutual information between $\pmb{f}^h$ and $\pmb{f}^a$ . This prompts us to ask: Can we exploit such mutual relation and use the compact hash features to model the context of anchor attributes $\mathcal{A}$ ? This leads to the context modeling as a conditional probability: + +$$ +p (\mathcal {A}, \boldsymbol {x} ^ {a}, \mathcal {H}) = p (\mathcal {A} | \boldsymbol {x} ^ {a}, \mathcal {H}) \times p (\boldsymbol {x} ^ {a}, \mathcal {H}) \sim p (\mathcal {A} | \boldsymbol {f} ^ {h}) \times p (\mathcal {H}) \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\pmb{x}^a$ is omitted in the last term as we assume the independence of $\pmb{x}^a$ and $\mathcal{H}$ (it can be anywhere), making $p(\mathcal{H}|\pmb{x}^a)\sim p(\mathcal{H})$ , and do not employ entropy constraints to $\pmb{x}^a$ . According to information theory [9], a higher probability corresponds to lower uncertainty (entropy) and fewer bits consumption. Thus, the large mutual information between $\mathcal{A}$ and $\pmb{f}^{h}$ ensures a large $p(\mathcal{A}|\pmb{f}^{h})$ . Our goal is to devise a solution to effectively leverage this relationship. Furthermore, $p(\mathcal{H})$ signifies that the size of the hash grid itself should also be compressed, which can be done by adopting the existing solution for Instant-NGP compression [7]. + +We underscore the significance of this conditional probability based approach since it ensures both rendering speed and fidelity upper-bound unaffected as it only utilizes hash features to estimate the entropy of anchor attributes for entropy coding but does not modify the original Scaffold-GS structure. In the following subsections, we delve into the technical details of our context models. + +# 3.3 HAC: Hash-Grid Assisted Context Framework + +The principle objective of HAC is to minimize the entropy of anchor attributes $\mathcal{A}$ with the assistance of hash feature $\pmb{f}^h$ (i.e., maximize $p(\mathcal{A}|\pmb{f}^h)$ ), facilitating bit reduction when encoding anchor attributes using entropy coding like AE [41]. As shown in Fig. 2, anchor locations $\pmb{x}^a$ are firstly inputted into the hash grid for interpolation, the obtained $\pmb{f}^h$ are then employed as context for $\mathcal{A}$ . + +![](images/495da52630701b1a3f780ad93a70ac7512fe0adad7b2ea3ba8c77a81bc6b9bfd.jpg) +Fig. 3: Left chart: Statistical analysis of the value distributions of $\mathcal{A}$ on the scene "chair" of the Synthetic-NeRF dataset [28].

+ +Adaptive Quantization Module. To facilitate entropy coding, values of $\mathcal{A}$ must be quantized to a finite set. Our empirical studies reveal that binarization, as that in BiRF [37], is unsuitable for $\mathcal{A}$ as it fails to preserve sufficient information. Thus, we opt for rounding them to maintain their comprehensive features. To ensure backpropagation, we utilize the "adding noise" operation during training and "rounding" during testing, as described in [1]. + +Nevertheless, the conventional rounding is essentially a quantization with a step size of "1", which is inappropriate for the scaling $l$ and the offset $o$ , since they are usually decimal values. To address this, we further introduce an Adaptive Quantization Module (AQM), which adaptively determines quantization steps. In particular, for the $i$ th anchor $\boldsymbol{x}_i^a$ , we denote $\boldsymbol{f}_i$ as any of its $\mathcal{A}_i$ 's components: $\boldsymbol{f}_i \in \{\boldsymbol{f}_i^a, l_i, o_i\} \in \mathbb{R}^D$ , where $D \in \{D^a, 6, 3K\}$ is its respective dimension. The quantization can be written as, + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i} = \boldsymbol {f} _ {i} + \mathcal {U} \left(- \frac {1}{2}, \frac {1}{2}\right) \times \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}, \quad \text {f o r t r a i n i n g} \tag {4} \\ = \operatorname {R o u n d} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {i} / \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}\right) \times \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}, \quad \text {f o r t e s t i n g} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \boldsymbol {q} _ {i} = Q _ {0} \times (1 + \operatorname {T a n h} (\boldsymbol {r} _ {i})) \\ \boldsymbol {r} _ {i} = \operatorname {M L P} _ {\mathrm {q}} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {i} ^ {h}\right). \tag {5} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +We use a simple MLP-based context model $\mathrm{MLP_q}$ to predict from hash feature $\pmb{f}_i^h$ a refinement $\pmb{r}_i\in \mathbb{R}^1$ , which is used to adjust the predefined quantization step size $Q_{0}$ . Note that $Q_{0}$ varies for $\pmb{f}^{a}$ , $\pmb{l}$ , and $\pmb{o}$ . Eq. (5) essentially restricts the quantization step size $\pmb{q}_i\in \mathbb{R}^1$ to be chosen within $(0,2Q_0)$ , enabling $\hat{\pmb{f}}_i$ to closely resemble the original characteristics of $\pmb{f}_i$ , maintaining a high fidelity. + +Gaussian Distribution Modeling. To measure the bit consumption of $\hat{f}_i$ during training, its probability needs to be estimated in a differentiable manner. As shown in Fig. 3 left, all three components of anchor attributes $\mathcal{A}$ exhibit statistical tendencies of Gaussian distributions, where $l$ displays a single-sided pattern due to Sigmoid activation1. This observation establishes a lower bound + +for probability prediction when all $\hat{f}_i$ s in $\mathcal{A}$ are estimated using the respective $\mu$ and $\sigma$ of the statistical Gaussian Distribution of $f^a$ , $l$ and $o$ . Nevertheless, employing a single set of $\mu$ and $\sigma$ for all attributes may lack accuracy. Therefore, we assume anchor attributes $\mathcal{A}$ 's values independent, and construct their respective Gaussian distributions, where their individual $\mu$ and $\sigma$ are estimated by a simple MLP-based context model $\mathrm{MLP}_c$ from $f^h$ . Specifically, for the $i$ th anchor and its quantized anchor attribute vector $\hat{f}_i$ , with the estimated $\mu_i \in \mathbb{R}^D$ and $\sigma_i \in \mathbb{R}^D$ , we can compute the probability of $\hat{f}_i$ as, + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} p (\hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i}) = \int_ {\hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i} - \frac {1}{2} \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}} ^ {\hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i} + \frac {1}{2} \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}} \phi_ {\boldsymbol {\mu} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {\sigma} _ {i}} (x) d x \\ = \Phi_ {\boldsymbol {\mu} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {\sigma} _ {i}} \left(\hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i} + \frac {1}{2} \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}\right) - \Phi_ {\boldsymbol {\mu} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {\sigma} _ {i}} \left(\hat {\boldsymbol {f}} _ {i} - \frac {1}{2} \boldsymbol {q} _ {i}\right) \tag {6} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\mu} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {\sigma} _ {i} = \operatorname {M L P} _ {\mathrm {c}} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {i} ^ {h}\right). +$$ + +where $\phi$ and $\varPhi$ represent the probability density function and the cumulative distribution function, respectively. Consequently, we define an entropy loss as the summation of bit consumption over all $\hat{f}_i\mathrm{s}$ : + +$$ +L _ {\text {e n t r o p y}} = \sum_ {\boldsymbol {f} \in \left\{\boldsymbol {f} ^ {a}, \boldsymbol {l}, \boldsymbol {o} \right\}} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {D} \left(- \log_ {2} p \left(\hat {f} _ {i, j}\right)\right) \tag {7} +$$ + +$N$ is the number of anchors and $\hat{f}_{i,j}$ is $\hat{\pmb{f}}_i$ 's $j$ -th dimension value. Minimizing the entropy loss encourages a high probability estimation for $p(\hat{\pmb{f}}_i)$ , which in turn encourages accurate $\pmb{\mu}_i$ and small $\sigma_{i}$ , guiding the learning of the context model. + +Adaptive Offset Masking. From Fig. 3 left, we can also see that $\pmb{o}$ exhibits an impulse at zero, suggesting the occurrence of substantial unnecessary Gaussians. Thus, we employ the technique introduced by Lee et al. [22] to prune invalid $\pmb{o}$ by utilizing straight-through [3] estimated binary masks. Specifically, we apply the same marking loss $L_{m}$ in [22] to encourage masking as many Gaussians as possible. This process effectively masks out invalid offsets and saves storage space directly. Additionally, we implement anchor pruning: if all the attached $\pmb{o}$ are pruned on an anchor, then this anchor no longer contributes to rendering and should be pruned entirely (including its $\pmb{x}^{a}$ and $\mathcal{A}$ ). + +Hash Grid Compression. As shown in Eq. (3), the size of the hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ also significantly influences the final storage size. To this end, we binarize the hash table to $\{-1, +1\}$ using straight-through estimation (STE) [37] and calculate the occurrence frequency $h_f$ [7] of the symbol “+1” to estimate its bit consumption: + +$$ +L _ {\text {h a s h}} = M _ {+} \times (- \log_ {2} \left(h _ {f}\right)) + M _ {-} \times (- \log_ {2} \left(1 - h _ {f}\right)) \tag {8} +$$ + +where $M_{+}$ and $M_{-}$ are total numbers of “+1” and “-1” in the hash grid. + +# 3.4 Training and Coding Process + +During training, we incorporate both the rendering fidelity loss and the entropy loss to ensure the model improves rendering quality while controlling total bitrate + +consumption in a differentiable manner. Our overall loss is + +$$ +L o s s = L _ {\text {S c a f f o l d}} + \lambda_ {e} \frac {1}{N (D ^ {a} + 6 + 3 K)} \left(L _ {\text {e n t r o p y}} + L _ {\text {h a s h}}\right) + \lambda_ {m} L _ {m}. \tag {9} +$$ + +Here, $L_{\mathrm{Scaffold}}$ represents the rendering loss as defined in [27], which includes two fidelity penalty loss terms and one regularization term for the scaling $l$ . The second part in Eq. (9) is the estimated controllable bit consumption, including the estimated bits $L_{\mathrm{entropy}}$ for anchor attributes and $L_{\mathrm{hash}}$ for the hash grid. The last term $L_{m}$ in Eq. (9) is the masking loss adopted from [22] to regularize the adaptive offset masking module. $\lambda_{e}$ and $\lambda_{m}$ are trade-off hyperparameters used to balance the loss components. Note that we incorporate different techniques or loss items at different iterations to stabilize the training process. Please refer to the supplementary Sec.A for more details. + +For the encoding/decoding process, the binary hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ is first encoded/ decoded using AE with $h_f$ . Then, hash feature $\pmb{f}^h$ is obtained through interpolation based on $\mathcal{H}$ and $\pmb{x}^a$ . Once $\pmb{f}^h$ is acquired, the context models $\mathrm{MLP_q}$ and $\mathrm{MLP_c}$ are then employed to estimate quantization refinement term $\pmb{r}$ and parameters of the Gaussian Distribution (i.e., $\pmb{\mu}$ and $\pmb{\sigma}$ ) to derive the probability $p(\hat{\pmb{f}})$ for entropy encoding/decoding with AE. + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section, we first present our HAC framework's implementation details and then conduct evaluation experiments to compare with existing 3DGS compression approaches. Additionally, we include ablation studies to demonstrate the effectiveness of each technical component of our method. Finally, we visualize the bit allocation map for better understanding. + +# 4.1 Implementation Details + +We implement our HAC based on the Scaffold-GS repository [27] using the PyTorch framework [33] and train the model on a single NVIDIA RTX 4090 GPU. We increase the dimension of the Scaffold-GS anchor feature $\pmb{f}^a$ (i.e., $D^a$ ) to 50, and disable its feature bank as we found it may lead to unstable training. For the hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ , we utilize a mixed 3D-2D structured binary hash grid, with 12 levels of 3D embeddings ranging from 16 to 512 resolutions, and 4 levels of 2D embeddings ranging from 128 to 1024 resolutions. The maximum hash table sizes are $2^{13}$ and $2^{15}$ for the 3D and 2D grids, respectively, both with a feature dimension of $D^h = 4$ . We set $\lambda_m$ to $5e - 4$ , and change $\lambda_e$ from $5e - 4$ to $4e - 3$ for variable bitrates. We set $Q_0$ as 1, 0.001 and 0.2 for $\pmb{f}^a$ , $l$ and $o$ , respectively. We combine $\mathrm{MLP_q}$ and $\mathrm{MLP_c}$ to a single 3-layer MLP with ReLU activation. + +# 4.2 Experiment Evaluation + +Baselines.

Approaches in the middle chunk are designed for 3DGS compression. For our approach, we give two results of different size and fidelity tradeoffs by adjusting $\lambda_{e}$ . A smaller $\lambda_{e}$ results in a larger size but improved fidelity, and vice versa. The best and 2nd best results are highlighted in red and yellow cells. The size is measured in MB. + +

Our bitstream consists of five components: anchor attributes $\mathcal{A}$ (comprising $f^a$ , $l$ and $o$ ), binary hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ , offset masks, anchor locations $\pmb{x}^a$ and MLPs. Among them, $\mathcal{A}$ is encoded using entropy codec AE [41] with estimated probabilities from HAC. It accounts for the dominant portion of the storage. The hash grid $\mathcal{H}$ and the masks are binary data and are encoded by AE using the respective occurrence frequency. The last two components are stored directly in 16 and 32 bits, respectively. When analyzing the bit allocation of each component, they are 14.90MB (8.76MB, 2.52MB, 3.62MB), 0.15MB, 0.52MB, 2.77MB, and 0.16MB for these five components on the most challenging BungeeNeRF dataset [42] with $\lambda_e = 4e - 3$ .

It shows more anchors are allocated to important regions while the bit consumption for each anchor is smooth. + +dataset [28] to support convincing and solid results. We assess the effectiveness of individual technical components by disabling either of the following: 1) mutual information from the hash grid, 2) the adaptive quantization module, 3) adaptive offset masking. The results are presented in Fig. 6. Firstly, we set the hash grid to all zeros to eliminate mutual information. This leads to a degradation of conditional probability from $p(\mathcal{A}|\pmb{f}^h)$ to $p(\mathcal{A})$ , which indicates that probability of $\hat{\pmb{f}}$ can only be estimated by the statistic $\mu$ and $\sigma$ from the left part of Fig. 3. Consequently, the bit consumption drastically increases as the probability can no longer be accurately estimated. Regarding the latter two components, they contribute from different perspectives. Disabling AQM (we remove $\pmb{r}$ while retaining $Q_0$ to ensure a necessary decimal quantization step) results in a significant drop in fidelity, especially in more complex scenes or at higher rates, as $\hat{\pmb{f}}$ fails to retain sufficient information for rendering after quantization. Differently, offset masking can achieve remarkable rate savings in simpler scenes or lower rate segments due to more significant positional redundancy in Gaussians. Overall, all three components provide a worthwhile tradeoff for improved RD performance. + +# 4.4 Visualization of Bit Allocation + +While HAC measures the parameters' bit consumption, we are interested in the bit allocation across different local areas in the space. In Fig. 7, we utilize scenes in Synthetic-NeRF dataset [28] for visualization, and represent bit allocation conditions by voxelized colored balls. As observed from the 2nd column of visualized sub-figures, the model tends to allocate more total bits to areas with complex appearances or sharp edges. For instance, specular objects in "materials" and instrument stands in "drums" exhibit higher total bit consumption due to the complex textures. The analysis of the 4th column from an averaging viewpoint reveals varied trends in bit consumption per anchor. In high bit-consumption voxels, creating more anchors for precise modeling averages the bit per anchor, smoothing or reducing bit consumption for each. This aligns with our assumption that anchors demonstrate inherent consistency in the 3D space where nearby anchors exhibit similar values of attributes, making it easier for the hash grid to accurately estimate their value probabilities. + +# 4.5 Training and Execution Time + +Training time. Use of additional models in HAC results in increased training time, approximately $0.9 \times$ longer than Scaffold-GS. For the challenging BungeeNeRF dataset [42], the training times are $38.2 \, m$ for 3DGS [19], $15.1 \, m$ for Scaffold-GS [27] and $27.6 \, m$ for HAC. For the small-scale Synthetic-NeRF dataset [28], training times are $3.4 \, m$ , $4.4 \, m$ and $9.0 \, m$ , respectively. This increase of training time in our model over Scaffold-GS is our main limitation, but it is still fast. + +Coding time. The encoding/decoding process takes approximately 0.87 seconds and 26.7 seconds on Synthetic-NeRF and BungeeNeRF dataset under $\lambda_{e} = 4e - 3$ , respectively. The dominant time consumption occurs during Codec execution of AE on the CPU (over $90\%$ ), as we only use a single thread. + +Inference time. The inference process benefits from the design of context modeling, allowing for the removal of the hash grid once $\mathcal{A}$ is decoded. Consequently, no additional operations are required during rendering, resulting in a similar FPS with Scaffold-GS. The rendering FPS are 75, 232 and 283 for 3DGS, Scaffold-GS and HAC on BungeeNeRF, and 401, 326 and 341 on Synthetic-NeRF. The improved FPS of our model compared to Scaffold-GS is likely due to the pruning of invalid Gaussians/anchors, which in turn facilitates faster rendering. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We pioneered an investigation into the relationship between unorganized and sparse Gaussians (or anchors) and well-structured hash grids, leveraging their mutual information for compact 3DGS representations. Our Hash-grid Assisted Context (HAC) framework has achieved SoTA compression performance with remarkable leading over concurrent works. Extensive experiments have demonstrated the effectiveness of our HAC and its technical components. Overall, our work has successfully mitigated the major challenging of 3DGS models, i.e., large storage, enabling its adoption in large-scale scenes and diverse devices. + +# Acknowledgement + +The paper is supported in part by The National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 62325109, U21B2013). + +MH is supported by funding from The Australian Research Council Discovery Program DP230101176. + +# References + +1.

Our approach introduces a binary hash grid to establish continuous spatial consistencies, allowing us to unveil the inherent spatial relations of anchors through a carefully designed context model. To facilitate entropy coding, we utilize Gaussian distributions to accurately estimate the probability of each quantized attribute, where an adaptive quantization module is proposed to enable high-precision quantization of these attributes for improved fidelity restoration.

For example, as illustrated in Fig. 1 middle, parameter pruning can be used to mask out the Gaussians whose parameter values are below a certain threshold [11, 22]. Another straightforward technique is to apply vector quantization to cluster parameters with similar \"values\". Such an approach enables the direct compression of parameters by only retaining more representative ones while maintaining reconstruction fidelity [11, 22, 31, 32]. Nevertheless, solely concentrating on \"values\" fails to eliminate structural redundancies, which are pivotal for compact representations. To exploit such spatial relations of Gaussians, Scaffold-GS [27] introduces anchors to cluster related nearby 3D Gaussians and neural-predict their attributes from the anchors' attributes, resulting in significant storage savings.

We pose the question: Is there inherent relations between the attributes of unorganized anchors in Scaffold-GS and the structured feature grids? Our answer is affirmative since we observe large mutual information between anchor attributes and the hash grid features. Based on this observation, we propose a Hash-grid Assisted Context (HAC) framework, where our core idea is to jointly learn structured compact hash grid (binarized for each hash parameter) and use it for context modeling of anchor attributes. Specifically, with Scaffold-GS [27] as our base model, for each anchor, we query the hash grid by the anchor location to obtain an interpolated hash feature, which is then used to predict the value distributions of anchor attributes, facilitating entropy coding such as Arithmetic Coding (AE) [41] for a highly compact representation of the model. Note that we employ Scaffold-GS as our base model as its anchor-centered design provides a good foundation to establish relations with these interpolated hash features. Furthermore, we introduce an Adaptive Quantization Module (AQM), which dynamically adjusts different quantization step sizes for different anchor attributes for retaining of their original information.

We present a method to create diffusion-based video models from pretrained Text-to-Image (T2I) models. Recently,AnimateDiff proposed freezing the T2I model while only training temporal layers.

Key innovations include novel loss functions for temporal smoothness and a mitigating gradient sampling technique, ensuring realistic and temporally consistent video generation despite limited public video data.

A common approach is to introduce additional 3D convolution and temporal attention blocks to the T2I model and fine-tune the whole network on videos in the same way as for T2I models on images [8, 10, 14, 17, 28, 38, 44].

Therefore, most video models have used additional in-house datasets. Second, the models diminish the variety of styles due to the highly realistic nature of training videos. To prevent this, a joint-training approach with images and videos is being used, however, we believe this does not tackle the root of the problem effectively.

To address this, we introduce a mapping network, an additional block positioned before the UNet and implicitly adjusting the noise distribution to facilitate video generation. This technique is motivated by the discovery that the low frequency component is largely determined by initial noise [6, 22, 26, 39].

We present a method to create diffusion-based video models from pretrained Text-to-Image (T2I) models. Recently,AnimateDiff proposed freezing the T2I model while only training temporal layers. We advance this method by proposing a unique architecture, incorporating a mapping network and frame-wise tokens, tailored for video generation while maintaining the diversity and creativity of the original T2I model. Key innovations include novel loss functions for temporal smoothness and a mitigating gradient sampling technique, ensuring realistic and temporally consistent video generation despite limited public video data. We have successfully integrated video-specific inductive biases into the architecture and loss functions. Our method, built on the frozen StableDiffusion model, simplifies training processes and allows for seamless integration with off-the-shelf models like ControlNet and DreamBooth. project page: https://kwonminki.github.io/HARIVO/" + }, + { + "type": "page_footnote", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.826, + 0.581, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "\\*\\* This work was done during the internship at Adobe" + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.116, + 0.23, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "2" + }, + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.272, + 0.115, + 0.351, + 0.128 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Kwon et al." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.217, + 0.145, + 0.375, + 0.161 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.176, + 0.788, + 0.403 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Recently, diffusion-based Text-to-Image (T2I) models have shown unprecedented performance [2, 16, 29, 32]. Upon this success, there are many attempts in the community to design diffusion-based Text-to-Video (T2V) models. A common approach is to introduce additional 3D convolution and temporal attention blocks to the T2I model and fine-tune the whole network on videos in the same way as for T2I models on images [8, 10, 14, 17, 28, 38, 44]. However, these whole-training T2V models have several disadvantages. First, training the entire model requires a large amount of data. Therefore, most video models have used additional in-house datasets. Second, the models diminish the variety of styles due to the highly realistic nature of training videos. To prevent this, a joint-training approach with images and videos is being used, however, we believe this does not tackle the root of the problem effectively. Additionally, most models consist of multiple stages, e.g., keyframe generation and spatial/temporal interpolation, and have the disadvantage of struggling to maintain temporal consistency due to sparse keyframe generation." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.403, + 0.788, + 0.508 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Training only the temporal components while keeping the T2I model parameters frozen is an alternative that avoids the aforementioned problems and reduces training complexity [4, 12].

To address this, we introduce a mapping network, an additional block positioned before the UNet and implicitly adjusting the noise distribution to facilitate video generation. This technique is motivated by the discovery that the low frequency component is largely determined by initial noise [6, 22, 26, 39].

With a slightly different setting, ours is able to achieve FVD of 623.51, which is better than our standard setting, but noticed worse visual quality in general. Due to the instability of the FVD metric [11], we stopped tuning our settings for a better FVD and aimed at the best visual quality. We prepared 100 unique text prompts with distinct movements (Table A3) and generated four videos per prompt. These 400 videos were then evaluated based on binary attributes to determine the best quality. Please refer to Table A2.

Furthermore, it is accompanied by a mitigating gradient sampling that further improves smoothness and quality in generative process. All elements are motivated by inductive biases from characteristics of natural videos and contribute to the performance improvements.

We present a method to create diffusion-based video models from pretrained Text-to-Image (T2I) models. Recently,AnimateDiff proposed freezing the T2I model while only training temporal layers. We advance this method by proposing a unique architecture, incorporating a mapping network and frame-wise tokens, tailored for video generation while maintaining the diversity and creativity of the original T2I model. Key innovations include novel loss functions for temporal smoothness and a mitigating gradient sampling technique, ensuring realistic and temporally consistent video generation despite limited public video data. We have successfully integrated video-specific inductive biases into the architecture and loss functions. Our method, built on the frozen StableDiffusion model, simplifies training processes and allows for seamless integration with off-the-shelf models like ControlNet and DreamBooth. project page: https://kwonminki.github.io/HARIVO/ + +# 1 Introduction + +Recently, diffusion-based Text-to-Image (T2I) models have shown unprecedented performance [2, 16, 29, 32]. Upon this success, there are many attempts in the community to design diffusion-based Text-to-Video (T2V) models. A common approach is to introduce additional 3D convolution and temporal attention blocks to the T2I model and fine-tune the whole network on videos in the same way as for T2I models on images [8, 10, 14, 17, 28, 38, 44]. However, these whole-training T2V models have several disadvantages. First, training the entire model requires a large amount of data. Therefore, most video models have used additional in-house datasets. Second, the models diminish the variety of styles due to the highly realistic nature of training videos. To prevent this, a joint-training approach with images and videos is being used, however, we believe this does not tackle the root of the problem effectively. Additionally, most models consist of multiple stages, e.g., keyframe generation and spatial/temporal interpolation, and have the disadvantage of struggling to maintain temporal consistency due to sparse keyframe generation. + +Training only the temporal components while keeping the T2I model parameters frozen is an alternative that avoids the aforementioned problems and reduces training complexity [4, 12]. By freezing the T2I model, we can anticipate diverse outcomes based on the knowledge trained from images, and using existing methods from image models. However, unfortunately, training only the temporal components is not straightforward and often does not converge easily. In response, previous studies have adopted the following methods. + +VideoLDM[4] continued to adopt multi-stage training with spatial/temporal interpolation and upsampling, which could not reduce the training complexity. Furthermore, instead of directly using the image model, adapting the masked blend T2I feature strategy makes it difficult to combine with existing T2I methods.AnimateDiff [12] mainly generates personalized videos assisted by Dreambooth [33] and LoRA [18], which facilitate the creation of videos by generating similar images; but struggles in generating diverse videos. + +In this paper, we demonstrate that when freezing the image model and only training the temporal layers, we can employ additional inductive biases that we know about videos. We propose a collection of novel designs, including a novel architecture, training losses, and a sampling technique that enable us to fully leverage the power of a frozen T2I model. It generates videos of high quality and diverse styles, similar to the image model, and maintains temporal consistency as shown in Figure 1 and 2. + +Our approach offers several advantages. Firstly, it supports the combination of personalized T2I models such as DreamBooth, LoRA, ControlNet[43], and IP-Adapter[41] without requiring further training to produce personalized videos. This goes beyond merely using off-the-shelf models to show that one can design methods and train models using only images to control videos. Secondly, our model shows temporally consistent video generation although it is trained on a public dataset (WebVid-10M), whereas many existing works are trained on in-house datasets. Thirdly, we introduce various independent methods that apply + +![](images/fdb75c292226cf72f17fbdbf23a047fc3ae0547326abb3f4bf1797fa5ee1d672.jpg) +Fig. 2: An overview of our method: illustration and results. We propose a method where we freeze a Text-to-Image model and train only temporal layers, including the additional proposed networks.

We extend the ability of T2I models to the video domain with minimal modification. All of our components bring orthogonal improvements, enabling other researchers to selectively use them. + +Extending T2I model to Video model. We propose two additional components that help to extend the T2I model to a video model: a mapping network and frame-wise tokens. Since T2I models are originally trained to generate a variety of independent images from randomly sampled Gaussian noises, we conjecture that generating videos from independent and identically distributed (IID) noises for all frames is not suitable because consecutive frames of videos are highly correlated. To address this, we introduce a mapping network, an additional block positioned before the UNet and implicitly adjusting the noise distribution to facilitate video generation. This technique is motivated by the discovery that the low frequency component is largely determined by initial noise [6, 22, 26, 39]. In addition, we introduce frame-wise tokens which handle similar but subtle differences between frames. For this, we design a token generator that receives the text prompt and produces frame-wise tokens. The frame-wise tokens are concatenated to the original text tokens such that our T2V model generates frames with the same content specified by the text prompt and slightly different dynamic states. + +Losses for temporal smoothness. In addition to the model improvements, we propose two loss functions that help to generate temporally consistent videos. First, temporal regularized self-attention loss penalizes the difference in the self-attention map between frames. Inspired by early studies that show the crucial role of self-attention maps in specifying scene structure and object identity [5, 21, 36], it encourages smoothness between frames, improving temporal consistency and coherency. Second, decoupled contrastive loss on $h$ -space ensures all frames share the same semantic content. As the bottleneck feature (h-space) of U-Net has semantics [20, 23, 30], we impose the h-space features of all frames within a video to be close to each other and far from different videos. + +Mitigating gradient sampling. Lastly, but importantly, we propose mitigating gradient sampling that prevents abrupt changes between frames for each timestep + +at inference time. It provides guidance during the generative process from the gradient of the difference between frames. It helps to generate realistic videos that are naturally continuous. + +Experiments and contribution. We build our video model upon the frozen StableDiffusion, a widely-used public T2I model, and train the mapping network, frame-wise token generator, and temporal layers with WebVid-10M dataset. We provide an ablation study and comparison with Fréchet Video Distance (FVD)[37] on UCF101 [35] and Clip Similarity [31] on MSR-VTT [40] following previous works. Our contributions are 1) novel and well-motivated additional components for video model, 2) single stage training with public dataset, 3) showing temporal consistency, and 4) easy combination with off-the-shelf personalized T2I models (DreamBooth, LoRA, ControlNet, and IP-Adapter). + +# 2 Background and Related Work + +Diffusion models (DMs) have demonstrated impressive performance in the realm of image synthesis. The fundamental mechanism of DMs involves a predetermined forward diffusion process, where noise is incrementally introduced to the original data $\mathbf{x}_0\sim p(\pmb {x}_0)$ , alongside the training of a denoising model to invert this procedure through a denoising score matching loss expressed as: + +$$ +L _ {\text {s i m p l e}} = \mathbb {E} _ {t, \mathbf {x} _ {0}, \boldsymbol {\epsilon}} | \boldsymbol {\epsilon} - \mathbf {s} _ {\theta} (\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t) | _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {1} +$$ + +DMs define the forward process as $d\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x},t)dt + g(t)d\mathbf{w}$ , where $\mathbf{w}$ is the Wiener process. The corresponding reverse process is: $d\mathbf{x} = [-\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x},T - t) + g(T - t)^2\nabla_{\mathbf{x}}\log p_{T - t}(\mathbf{x})]dt + g(T - t)d\mathbf{w}$ where DMs approximate $\nabla_{\mathbf{x}}\log p_t(\mathbf{x})$ with $s_\theta (\mathbf{x},t)$ . + +In light of the intricate challenges posed by high-dimensional data such as RGB images, the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) [32] has been introduced. LDM simplifies the task by conducting the diffusion and denoising procedures within a low-dimensional latent space derived from a Variational Autoencoder (VAE). For the sake of brevity, we choose to exclude the specific notations related to the Encoder and Decoder in this paper. + +Following the advancement of T2I, the research community has pioneered Text-to-Video (T2V). Most T2V models have evolved from the 3D UNet structure proposed by VideoDiffusion[16], training with multi-stage 3D UNets through complete finetuning.Imagen Video[17] and Make-A-Video[34] have successfully demonstrated multi-stage T2V models at the RGB pixel level, while few works[38, 44] integrated temporal layers into the multi-stage T2I LDM. + +VideoLDM[4] first presented a method to train T2V models while keeping the T2I models frozen, but applying a masked blending method (not using the T2I model's features directly), and employing multi-stage training techniques.AnimateDiff[12] advanced this by keeping the T2I entirely frozen and only training the temporal layer in one stage, butAnimateDiff did not generalize successfully to a text-to-video model, being limited to specific video domains using Dreambooth or LoRa. + +In contrast, our approach, unlike other studies that solely relied on basic denoising score matching loss, proposes new losses and architectures. We have successfully trained the video model while keeping the T2I model completely frozen, enabling flexible combinations with multiple existing off-the-shelf models. + +# 3 Method + +We briefly describe inflating text-to-image (T2I) model to video model as a baseline and then introduce our novel components. Please note that in all the figures within the paper, the parts highlighted in orange indicate the network components that we are training. + +# 3.1 Baseline video model + +Similar toAnimateDiff [12], we add temporal attention layers $l_{\theta}$ between spatial layers $l_{\phi}$ of the text-to-image model, as a common technique for video generation methods. + +# 3.2 Mapping network + +In diffusion models, training and sampling rely on Gaussian noises $\epsilon$ and $\mathbf{x}_T \in \mathbb{R}^{B \cdot F \times C \times H \times W}$ , where $B, F, C, H$ and $W$ are batch size, number of frames, number of channels, height, and width, respectively. Some previous methods with pretrained T2I models design specific distributions, different from Gaussian, to model the relationship between frames in a video [4, 10]. For example, PYoCo used a correlated noise model that employs specific shared noise across all frames to design frame correlations. While this approach fits a Gaussian distribution on a frame-wise basis, it does not conform to a Gaussian distribution across the entire video space of $\mathbb{R}^{B \cdot F \times C \times H \times W}$ dimensions (See Appendix). Disregarding the Gaussian distribution nullifies the reparametrization trick of diffusion models, leading to unstable training; experimentally, we have found that models always diverge when training only on video without using joint training with images6. + +Therefore, we introduce a mapping network $l_{\theta}^{M}$ that transforms the diffusion noise prior (IID noise) into a distribution more suitable for generating videos. Unlike previous methods, it learns the mapping from Gaussian distribution to an implicit distribution for video supervised by the denoising score matching loss (Eq. (1)). In addition, it ensures the validity of the reparametrization trick for training. We design the mapping network to have temporal attention and 3D convolutions such that the inter-frame interaction makes it easier to prepare the input for the Video U-Net to match the relationship between frames within a video. Please refer to Appendix for detail. + +![](images/a9f2249d5727c425b8f575dc9feffb97c830cf8a3c2fec9bc3cf6d1e7860e0d7.jpg) +(a) Mapping network + +![](images/8dacd8a386f8ff6b609098d917cce73228103514f3d55867dfb5eb1ceb5d8bc3.jpg) +(b) Temporal regularized self-attention loss +Fig. 3: (a) Our mapping network in front of the U-Net maps IID Gaussian noise to a proper distribution for video generation. $L_{\mathrm{reg}}$ penalizes difference between frames with and without temporal layers $l_{\theta}$ to preserve the expertise of the pretrained T2I model. (b) Temporal regularized self-attention loss penalizes the difference between self-attention maps of adjacent frames in the frozen T2I model to improve smoothness between consecutive frames. + +To prevent the mapping network from pushing the distribution to excessively far from the original, we introduce a regularization to safeguard the T2I model's expertise: + +$$ +L _ {\text {r e g}} = \lambda_ {t} \| f _ {l _ {\theta} ^ {M}, \theta , \phi} (\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t, c) - f _ {l _ {\theta} ^ {M}, \phi} (\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t, c) \| _ {2} ^ {2}, \tag {2} +$$ + +where $f_{l_\theta^M,\theta,\phi}$ denotes the whole T2V model, $f_{l_\theta^M,\phi}$ denotes T2I model with the mapping network, and $c$ denotes the input text prompt. The T2I model individually denoises different frames. Figure 3(a) illustrates the mapping network and above regularization. It guides the output of the mapping network to lie in the domain of T2I model so that it becomes easier for the temporal layers in T2V model to work with the frozen T2I model. Furthermore, it also encourages the T2V model to preserve the existing knowledge of the T2I model similarly to distillation. We set $\lambda_t = 1 - \frac{t}{T}$ to soften the regularizer on timesteps close to $T$ because T2I model produces discontinuous frames in early timesteps. It ensures that, at low noise levels, the image model's output closely aligns with the ground truth, matching the video model's output. + +# 3.3 Temporal regularized self-attention loss + +The self-attention map within diffusion models encapsulate structural content of the generated images [5, 20, 23, 30, 36]. Upon this understanding of self-attention maps, Text2video-zero[21] and MasaCtrl[5] pioneers generating videos by sharing the self-attention map without additional training. + +Taking inspiration from their approaches, we propose the Temporal Regularized Self-attention (TRS) loss, which aims to suppress the difference of self-attention maps between consecutive frames: + +$$ +L _ {\mathrm {T R S}} = \sum_ {i} ^ {N} \sum_ {j = 2} ^ {F} \lambda_ {i} \left| \mathcal {A} _ {i} ^ {(j)} - \mathcal {A} _ {i} ^ {(j - 1)} \right|, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{A}_i^{(j)}$ denotes self-attention map of $i$ -th layer on $j$ -th frame. We use $\lambda_i = \frac{i}{N}$ where $N$ is the total number of decoder layers to put more weights on later layers. + +![](images/eb9c80a6adf1bfea8ca2fe86cb179b78fc95200236e1687beb7d8c0340b93db1.jpg) +(a) Decoupled contrastive loss + +![](images/a2de9cb4d07f4fdf57b1e57931ee6c0e39bf36bc6c415db6e8e1a185f88dc1d0.jpg) +(b) Frame-wise token +Fig. 4: (a) Decoupled contrastive loss on h-space encourages semantic consistency within a video. h-space is the bottleneck of U-Net. Positive pairs are randomly chosen from a video and negative samples are stored in a queue. $g_{\theta}$ is a projection layer used only for training. (b) Frame-wise token generator $t_{\theta}$ produces frame-wise tokens that represent subtle difference across frames. These tokens are concatenated to the text tokens to be fed into the cross-attention layers. + +We compute $L_{\mathrm{TRS}}$ only on the decoder layers in U-Net. Figure 3(b) depicts the TRS loss. + +Note that TRS loss supervises temporal layers and the T2I layers are kept frozen. However, although the TRS loss effectively encourages temporal coherence by preventing extreme changes, it only considers consecutive frames. In the next section, we introduce a loss function to maintain temporal consistency within a video, preventing objects from diverging to another object. + +# 3.4 Decoupled contrastive loss on h-space + +Asyrp[23] shows that the deepest feature maps of UNet, named h-space, contains semantic information regardless of the sampling timestep $t$ . Thus, assuming that all frames in a natural video have semantically consistent objects, we propose a loss to make all frames have a similar h using the decoupled contrastive loss [42] as shown in Figure 4(a). + +We define positive pairs by randomly sampling two frames from a video and extracting their deepest feature maps $\mathbf{h}$ 's. We store negative samples from other videos in a queue and update the queue at every step with previously-used positive pairs. With these pairs, we employ an additional projection layer $g_{\theta}(\cdot)$ to compute $\mathbf{z} = g_{\theta}(\mathbf{h})$ . Finally, we obtain the decoupled contrastive loss [42]: + +$$ +L _ {\mathrm {D C}} = - \left\langle \mathbf {z} ^ {(1)}, \mathbf {z} ^ {(2)} \right\rangle / \tau + \log \sum_ {q \in Q} \exp \left(\left\langle \mathbf {z} ^ {(1)}, \mathbf {z} ^ {(q)} \right\rangle / \tau\right), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{z}^{(1)}$ and $\mathbf{z}^{(2)}$ are projected positive pairs, $Q$ is the negative queue, and $\tau = 0.1$ is a temperature parameter. Intuitively, $L_{\mathrm{DC}}$ encourages all frames in a video to be closer together in $\mathbf{h}$ -space while pushing dissimilar frames from other videos apart. Positive pairs can contain non-consecutive frames because $\mathbf{h}$ -space does not contain structure of the scene a lot. The projection layer will be discarded after training. + +# 3.5 Frame-wise text embedding tokens + +Text tokens condition the generative process and several works have used text tokens for personalization [9, 15, 27]. Especially, HiPer [13] optimizes extra tokens after the end-of-sentence token to represent visual details of the input image that are not captured by typical text tokens. If we invert multiple frames of a video, there will be extra tokens for individual frames. + +In this light, we consider frames in a video as temporal variations of an image and introduce additional frame-wise tokens to represent varying details across frames. We employ a frame-wise token generator $t_\theta : (M \times D) \to (F \times K \times D)$ that receives the original text tokens from the input text prompt to produce frame-wise tokens, where $M$ is the maximum token length (=77), $D$ is the token embedding dimension (=768), $F$ is the number of frames, and $K$ is the number of frame-wise tokens (=3). The frame-wise tokens are concatenated to the text tokens in token-dimension and fed into the cross-attention layers. Figure 4(b) depicts this process. + +# 3.6 Training + +We train the temporal layers with all the proposed losses, including the mapping network, the projection layer for the contrastive loss, and the frame-wise token generator. The trainable and frozen components are marked in orange and gray, respectively, in the figures. The final loss becomes + +$$ +L _ {\mathrm {a l l}} (\theta) = L _ {\mathrm {s i m p l e}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {T R S}} L _ {\mathrm {T R S}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {r e g}} L _ {\mathrm {r e g}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {D C}} L _ {\mathrm {D C}}. \tag {5} +$$ + +Note that we do not compute $L_{\mathrm{simple}}$ for $f_{l_{\theta}^{M},\phi}(\mathbf{x}_{t},t,c)$ . All losses can reduce the movement in the video. However, interestingly, we have found through experimentation that the appropriate use of loss actually helps in generating videos with greater movement. We speculate that appropriate regularization helps the model to find a better local minimum. + +# 3.7 Inference with mitigating gradient sampling + +Even with a well-trained model, we observe phenomena where the structure collapses or artifacts appear and disappear when generating complex actions or fast motions. We argue that this can be effectively prevented by adding simple guidance during the generative process. + +In the pursuit of smoother image sequences, we measure the similarity between consecutive frames using a kernel function [25], which is integrated into a process designed by ADM[7]. They innovated by introducing 'Classifier guidance' into the generative process, with the equation + +$$ +d \mathbf {x} = \left[ - \mathbf {f} (\mathbf {x}, t ^ {\prime}) + g (t ^ {\prime}) ^ {2} \left(s _ {\theta} (\mathbf {x}, t ^ {\prime}) + \alpha \nabla_ {\mathbf {x}} \log \varPhi_ {t}\right) \right] d t + g (t ^ {\prime}) d \mathbf {w}, \tag {6} +$$ + +where $t' = T - t$ signifies the reverse timestep, $\varPhi$ is an extra function for the guidance, and $\alpha$ is a parameter that scales the guidance. This guidance can + +# Algorithm 1 Mitigating Gradient Sampling + +1: $\epsilon_{\mathrm{pred}} = s_{\theta}(\mathbf{x}_t,\varnothing) + \omega_{\mathrm{CFG}}(s_{\theta}(\mathbf{x}_t,c) - s_{\theta}(\mathbf{x}_t,\varnothing))$ +2: $\mathcal{D}\gets \hat{\mathbf{x}}_t[1:] - \hat{\mathbf{x}}_t[: - 1]$ // $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_t = (\mathbf{x}_t - \sqrt{1 - \alpha_t}\epsilon_{\mathrm{pred}}) / \sqrt{\alpha_t}$ +3: $\mathcal{S}\gets \mathrm{norm}(\mathcal{D},2).$ median()²/log(F-1) // $F$ is number of frmaes +4: $\mathcal{G}_{\phi} \gets 2 \cdot \exp(-(\mathrm{norm}(\mathcal{D}, 2)^2 / \mathcal{S})) \cdot \mathcal{D} / \mathcal{S} \cdot \omega$ // $\omega = \sqrt{(1 - \bar{\alpha}_t) / \bar{\alpha}_t}$ +5: $\epsilon_{\mathrm{pred}} \gets \epsilon_{\mathrm{pred}} + \alpha \cdot \operatorname{concat}(0, \mathcal{G}_{\phi})$ + +be characterized in our design of $\log \varPhi_t$ , where each element can be seen as the similarity of the corresponding consecutive frames as expressed in the well-established literature [3, 24]: + +$$ +\nabla_ {\mathbf {x} _ {i}} \log \varPhi_ {t} (\mathbf {x}) \leftarrow \nabla_ {\mathbf {x} _ {i}} \omega \sum_ {j = 2} ^ {F} \exp \left(- \frac {\left\| \hat {\mathbf {x}} _ {t} ^ {(j)} - \hat {\mathbf {x}} _ {t} ^ {(j - 1)} \right\| ^ {2}}{2 \sigma^ {2}}\right), \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_t^{(i)}$ denotes predicted $\mathbf{x}_0$ of frame $i$ at timestep $t$ and $\sigma^2$ denotes the variance of $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_t^{(j)} - \hat{\mathbf{x}}_t^{(j-1)}$ . + +Intuitively, $\log \varPhi_t$ , which we refer to as mitigating gradient (MG) sampling, iteratively reduces the differences between frames during inference. If the generated videos are already smooth, its impact is minimal, but MG sampling significantly helps in preventing momentary artifacts and excessively rapid changes. We set $\omega$ as $\sqrt{(1 - \bar{\alpha}_t) / \bar{\alpha}_t}$ . The cost of MG sampling is negligible and also it impacts greatly when near noise by $\omega$ . We provide the MG sampling algorithm in Algorithm 1. Specifically, the median and the logarithm are used to ensure robustness against outliers in frame differences and the smoothing effect of varying frame lengths. + +# 4 Experiments + +We present thorough experiments including representative videos, ablation study, application to personalized or image-conditioned videos, and comparison to existing methods. + +Configuration Our model is built upon pretrained text-to-image (T2I) StableDiffusion v1.5. After inflating it to be text-to-video (T2V) model with our method, we train the inflated part on WebVid-10M [1] while the T2I part is kept frozen. The videos are 4 seconds long and 6 frames per second (fps), thus 24 frames in total. We set $\lambda_{\mathrm{TRS}} = \lambda_{\mathrm{reg}} = \lambda_{\mathrm{DC}} = 0.1$ and $\alpha = 40$ . Other details are in Appendix. For our quantitative evaluation, we use Fréchet Video Distance (FVD) [37] on UCF101 [35] and Clip Similarity [31] on MSR-VTT [40] to draw comparisons with other prevalent methods following the common practice. On UCF101, we generate 100 videos for each class using the class names as text prompts. On MSR-VTT, we select the first caption of each video in the test set to produce 2,990 videos. + +![](images/0e468c1f33ca448176ddc0fd1c04694c5ac966548175c76599861e198beab231.jpg) +Iron Man walking in the park + +![](images/e8ece68cc3be5cdd707e6a3bc6fa66c0ee8d24441f5be3aa81ea7e04fe1aadd1.jpg) +A lion swimming in the pool, colored pencil drawing + +![](images/6aac8a8f36850c1fc1dd14ae4e9b875423d9e84e40bddb060608eeeee242face.jpg) +A horse trotting along a beach at sunset + +![](images/d70fbb16998d6991d65ed69f2bae6e92b3c19f8fd82e6e2327615ce8463acc33.jpg) +Kingkong in the city, film noir movie cinema concept cartoon style black and white + +![](images/ef1d14b2b45114c2381c024eb586d39f5bb505f4d79e429effe5e5ac77626929.jpg) +An elephant swimming in the pool, A beautiful award-winning photography + +![](images/ab7e55c1cf2764eb8e468a9bb2642577c4078512480d43315dbf60108e54c361.jpg) +A robot flying in the sky, animate cartoon style + +![](images/255226f44cd05110a4dd9a2b7c191f14722ad16b44e3e51593a070864485590b.jpg) +An astronaut walking, a sci-fi digital art + +![](images/586e8299adcfdb8789364926717f1a8943e496603806efbb3f8a27cd35961318.jpg) +A martial artist who demonstrates ancient Chinese martial arts in the fog +Fig. 5: Our method generates high quality videos for given text prompts up to $512^{2}$ resolution. + +# 4.1 Qualitative results + +Figure 5 gives example results produced by our model.

We adoptAnimateDiff [12] as our baseline which also trains only the temporal layers while the T2I model is frozen as our method. Notably, the Temporal Regularized Self-attention loss $(L_{\mathrm{TRS}})$ and the Decoupled Contrastive loss $(L_{\mathrm{DC}})$ contribute to a significant improvement. + +Figure 6a demonstrates effect of mapping network and frame-wise tokens. We extract two short vertical segments of fixed locations from 24 frames of each video, and stack them horizontally between the first and last frame. Comparing [A] and [B], the minimal variant of our method still bear inconsistent objects' appearance between frames, revealed by the first and last frames, while adding mapping network improves the consistency. Comparing [B] and [C], adding framewise tokens resolves flickering between adjacent frames which is demonstrated by jaggies and smoothness in the horizontal stack of the 24 frames, respectively. We recommend watching the video comparison in the supplementary materials. + +![](images/f742e88b495e303be7dc7b2e371fc31f86b8d0587968986ba56407c5f88777e1.jpg) +Fig. 7: The use of a frozen StableDiffusion model enables the utilization of various off-the-shelf models without the need for retraining.

While the text tokens affect similar region across different frames, the attention maps of the frame-wise tokens smoothly vary across frames. We suppose that the inflated networks soley cannot represent natural videos and the frame-wise tokens provide additional freedom to the model leading to more natural videos. + +Figure 6c depicts the effect of varying the guidance scale $\alpha$ of mitigating gradient (MG) sampling. MG sampling not only effectively reduces momentary artifacts but also enhances the overall quality of the video. However, too large $\alpha$ may pause or distort the video. We set $\alpha = 40$ for the best results. + +We provide a more detailed ablation study with additional videos in supplementary materials, demonstrating smoothness of motion and consistency of objects thanks to the proposed method. We encourage readers to observe qualitative aspects that are not captured by FVD. + +# 4.3 Personalized / image-conditioned videos + +Our model naturally supports combining existing off-the-shelf personalized T2I methods [18, 33, 41, 43] because of the frozen pretrained T2I layers. In Figure 7a, we compare personalized videos using DreamBooth [33] onAnimateDiff [12] and ours.AnimateDiff produces spurious structure such as branching arm while our method produces videos with natural structure. Figure 7b and Figure 1 show the videos controlled by skeleton and sketches using ControlNet. We can either provide conditions of full frames or only a few non-adjacent frames, e.g., starting and ending frames. In the latter case, our model produces plausible inter-motion between the specified frames. Figure 7c shows image-conditioned video using IP-Adapter. More results are in the supplementary materials. + +This compatibility with off-the-shelf T2I variants is a huge advantage of our model leading to potential explosion of video generation era. Especially, our model does not require additional training to inflate the T2I variants of StableDiffusion. + +

+ +Table 3: We conduct a user study to compare videos in aspects of motion, consistency, and quality. The participants rated ours higher than others in motion consistency, and overall quality. + +# 4.4 Comparison to existing methods + +Table 2 showcases a comparative analysis with other studies in the field following the common practice. We emphasize that ours is the method with single-stage and frozen T2I layers for general video generation task. With a slightly different setting, ours is able to achieve FVD of 623.51, which is better than our standard setting, but noticed worse visual quality in general. Due to the instability of the FVD metric [11], we stopped tuning our settings for a better FVD and aimed at the best visual quality. We prepared 100 unique text prompts with distinct movements (Table A3) and generated four videos per prompt. These 400 videos were then evaluated based on binary attributes to determine the best quality. Please refer to Table A2. A concurrent work, EmuVideo [11], also reports a relatively high FVD score and argues that automated metrics on UCF101 are flawed for zero-shot text-to-video evaluation. + +Additionally, the table presents FVD of StableDiffusion obtained by sampling each frame individually with class names from the UCF101 as text prompts. Our observations from the results of StableDiffusion highlight two key points as follows. First, the classes in UCF101 invariably include human hands and faces, which StableDiffusion struggles to accurately generate. Second, it tends to generate various domains such as illustrations and gray photographs. Our method, which employs frozen StableDiffusion, exhibits similar tendency. This, we believe, contributes to achieving the relatively higher FVD. + +Despite of FVD score, our method produces diverse and accurate movements while previous methods often fail, e.g., continuity of walking legs across frames. Table 3 provides a user study with 50 participants with over 5K votes on 3 questions over 34 videos $(13 + 13 + 8)$ randomly selected from the project pages of VideoLDM and PYoCo and generated by ModelScope.

It has novel network components including the mapping network and the frame-wise token generator and is supervised by novel losses such as temporal regularized self-attention loss, h-space contrastive loss, and image model regularization loss. Furthermore, it is accompanied by a mitigating gradient sampling that further improves smoothness and quality in generative process. All elements are motivated by inductive biases from characteristics of natural videos and contribute to the performance improvements. Last but not least, our model is efficient to train thanks to single-stage process and frozen T2I layers. We hope our method will provide an influential starting point for future T2V models and contribute to a healthy research community. + +However, our T2V model has limitations due to its reliance on the StableDiffusion T2I model. This dependency means that issues in T2I models, like inaccurately generating human hands and limbs, also affect our T2V model. Exploring connections with other methods that have addressed these issues would be a valuable direction for future work. + +It also raises ethical concerns related to video generation, such as the risks of misusing synthetic media. Our work underscores the importance of continuous improvement in generative models in video synthesis, while also highlighting the necessity for ethical considerations. + +# Bibliography + +[1] Bain, M., Nagrani, A., Varol, G., Zisserman, A.: Frozen in time: A joint video and image encoder for end-to-end retrieval.

We present a method to create diffusion-based video models from pretrained Text-to-Image (T2I) models. Recently,AnimateDiff proposed freezing the T2I model while only training temporal layers. We advance this method by proposing a unique architecture, incorporating a mapping network and frame-wise tokens, tailored for video generation while maintaining the diversity and creativity of the original T2I model. Key innovations include novel loss functions for temporal smoothness and a mitigating gradient sampling technique, ensuring realistic and temporally consistent video generation despite limited public video data. We have successfully integrated video-specific inductive biases into the architecture and loss functions. Our method, built on the frozen StableDiffusion model, simplifies training processes and allows for seamless integration with off-the-shelf models like ControlNet and DreamBooth. project page: https://kwonminki.github.io/HARIVO/" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 22 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 654, + 355, + 665 + ], + "type": "page_footnote", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 654, + 355, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 654, + 355, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "\\*\\* This work was done during the internship at Adobe" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 23 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 229, + 127 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 229, + 127 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 229, + 127 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 139, + 482, + 319 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 139, + 482, + 319 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 139, + 482, + 319 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Recently, diffusion-based Text-to-Image (T2I) models have shown unprecedented performance [2, 16, 29, 32]. Upon this success, there are many attempts in the community to design diffusion-based Text-to-Video (T2V) models. A common approach is to introduce additional 3D convolution and temporal attention blocks to the T2I model and fine-tune the whole network on videos in the same way as for T2I models on images [8, 10, 14, 17, 28, 38, 44]. However, these whole-training T2V models have several disadvantages. First, training the entire model requires a large amount of data. Therefore, most video models have used additional in-house datasets. Second, the models diminish the variety of styles due to the highly realistic nature of training videos. To prevent this, a joint-training approach with images and videos is being used, however, we believe this does not tackle the root of the problem effectively. Additionally, most models consist of multiple stages, e.g., keyframe generation and spatial/temporal interpolation, and have the disadvantage of struggling to maintain temporal consistency due to sparse keyframe generation." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 319, + 482, + 402 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 319, + 482, + 402 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 319, + 482, + 402 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Training only the temporal components while keeping the T2I model parameters frozen is an alternative that avoids the aforementioned problems and reduces training complexity [4, 12].

We propose two additional components that help to extend the T2I model to a video model: a mapping network and frame-wise tokens. Since T2I models are originally trained to generate a variety of independent images from randomly sampled Gaussian noises, we conjecture that generating videos from independent and identically distributed (IID) noises for all frames is not suitable because consecutive frames of videos are highly correlated. To address this, we introduce a mapping network, an additional block positioned before the UNet and implicitly adjusting the noise distribution to facilitate video generation. This technique is motivated by the discovery that the low frequency component is largely determined by initial noise [6, 22, 26, 39]. In addition, we introduce frame-wise tokens which handle similar but subtle differences between frames. For this, we design a token generator that receives the text prompt and produces frame-wise tokens.

Due to the instability of the FVD metric [11], we stopped tuning our settings for a better FVD and aimed at the best visual quality. We prepared 100 unique text prompts with distinct movements (Table A3) and generated four videos per prompt. These 400 videos were then evaluated based on binary attributes to determine the best quality. Please refer to Table A2.

All elements are motivated by inductive biases from characteristics of natural videos and contribute to the performance improvements.

Online video understanding often relies on individual frames, leading to frame-by-frame predictions. Recent advancements such as Online Temporal Action Localization (OnTAL), extend this approach to instance-level predictions. However, existing methods mainly focus on short-term context, neglecting historical information. To address this, we introduce the History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) Framework for OnTAL. By integrating historical context, our framework enhances the synergy between long-term and short-term information, improving the quality of anchor features crucial for classification and localization. We evaluate our model on both procedural egocentric (PREGO) datasets (EGTEA and EPIC) and standard non-PREGO OnTAL datasets (THUMOS and MUSES). Results show that our model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches significantly on PREGO datasets and achieves comparable or slightly superior performance on non-PREGO datasets, underscoring the importance of leveraging long-term history, especially in procedural and egocentric action scenarios.

Online video understanding often relies on individual frames, leading to frame-by-frame predictions. Recent advancements such as Online Temporal Action Localization (OnTAL), extend this approach to instance-level predictions. However, existing methods mainly focus on short-term context, neglecting historical information. To address this, we introduce the History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) Framework for OnTAL. By integrating historical context, our framework enhances the synergy between long-term and short-term information, improving the quality of anchor features crucial for classification and localization. We evaluate our model on both procedural egocentric (PREGO) datasets (EGTEA and EPIC) and standard non-PREGO OnTAL datasets (THUMOS and MUSES). Results show that our model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches significantly on PREGO datasets and achieves comparable or slightly superior performance on non-PREGO datasets, underscoring the importance of leveraging long-term history, especially in procedural and egocentric action scenarios.

While there have been attempts to incorporate historical data in other areas of online action understanding, such as Online Action Detection (OAD) [4,40], the fusion of historical context with OnTAL, particularly with anchor-based Transformer models, remains largely unexplored.

Online video understanding often relies on individual frames, leading to frame-by-frame predictions. Recent advancements such as Online Temporal Action Localization (OnTAL), extend this approach to instance-level predictions. However, existing methods mainly focus on short-term context, neglecting historical information. To address this, we introduce the History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) Framework for OnTAL. By integrating historical context, our framework enhances the synergy between long-term and short-term information, improving the quality of anchor features crucial for classification and localization. We evaluate our model on both procedural egocentric (PREGO) datasets (EGTEA and EPIC) and standard non-PREGO OnTAL datasets (THUMOS and MUSES). Results show that our model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches significantly on PREGO datasets and achieves comparable or slightly superior performance on non-PREGO datasets, underscoring the importance of leveraging long-term history, especially in procedural and egocentric action scenarios. Code is available at: https://github.com/sakibreza/ECCV24-HAT/. + +Keywords: Online Video Understanding $\cdot$ Temporal Action Localization $\cdot$ Egocentric Vision $\cdot$ Temporal Transformers + +# 1 Introduction + +In today's digital era, the surge in video content has spurred the demand for innovative solutions to process lengthy, unedited videos. Transformers have become instrumental to understand complex video sequences, particularly in Temporal Action Localization (TAL) [6,29,43,44], which aims to identify and classify actions within videos, marking their start and end times. + +Online Action Detection (OAD) identifies ongoing actions in real-time video frames, while Online Detection of Action Start (ODAS) focuses on quickly pinpointing action beginnings, enabling prompt responses. However, both tasks operate at the frame level, lacking contextual understanding at the instance level, limiting their broader applicability. To address this, a new instance-level task, Online Temporal Action Localization (On-TAL) [18], has been introduced. On-TAL, unlike traditional offline TAL, operates online without access to future frames and prohibits alterations to previously generated action proposals, allowing only real-time post-processing. + +![](images/c73b76fd886fdfe70439c1c983b0aec927c86cd96a87f01070185fb87694f434.jpg) +(a) Existing OnTAL Models + +![](images/0a8bea11623731bf1b07b805621b50a1a7b3722768d233f8d0435c538283dee6.jpg) +Fig. 1: High-level architecture designs of prior approaches and our method. + +![](images/7fb35d1e10bb4a4eae114b9b622f18adc937822ebfc1c543e73f5f42e7cb6eae.jpg) + +Despite its potential, traditional On-TAL methodologies, which focus on aggregating per-frame action predictions into action instances, encounter challenges in accuracy due to issues like tick, fragmentation, and merging of action instances. To address these, the Online Anchor Transformer (OAT) [19] was introduced, using a Transformer architecture with instance-level supervision. However, OAT's reliance on short-term analysis within a sliding window neglects the potential benefits of incorporating long-term historical context, which is crucial for accurately predicting complex action sequences. While there have been attempts to incorporate historical data in other areas of online action understanding, such as Online Action Detection (OAD) [4,40], the fusion of historical context with OnTAL, particularly with anchor-based Transformer models, remains largely unexplored. Therefore, this paper aims to bridge this gap by integrating historical context into the OnTAL framework, proposing a novel framework named History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT). Figure 1 illustrates the overarching structure of our proposed framework in comparison to earlier methods. The main contributions of our paper include: + +- The first long-term historical context supported anchor-based transformer, tailored for OnTAL task, which efficiently processes extensive historical data and integrates it into the anchor-level feature, enhancing the model's understanding and contextual relevance. +- A novel history refinement strategy that leverages action anticipation guidance and aligns it with the current temporal context to improve prediction accuracy and relevance. +- A gradient-guided adaptive focal loss function to address the class-imbalance problem effectively, applicable to both foreground versus background and among different foreground classes. +- A comprehensive evaluation across datasets, showcasing state-of-the-art performance on both procedural egocentric (PREGO) datasets (EGTEA and EPIC-Kitchen-100) and standard non-PREGO OnTAL benchmark datasets (THUMOS'14 and MUSES). Our method particularly stands out in procedural tasks and egocentric datasets due to its advanced understanding of action dependencies and its ability to disregard irrelevant past frames. + +# 2 Related Work + +Temporal Action Localization TAL detects actions within videos by identifying their start and end points and categorizing them. Initially, researchers used sliding window methods [11, 31]. Recent studies have expanded the scope of video context analysis, including the use of graph networks [38, 42, 45], temporal multiscale networks [26, 46, 47], multi-scale representation with local self-attention [43], learning based on action sensitivity [29], exploring connections among action proposals [5], incorporating overall video context [48], and utilizing two-stage long-memory transformers [6]. End-to-end training methods [17, 24, 28, 37, 44] are also gaining interest as an alternative approach in TAL. + +Online Video Understanding De Geest et al. [8] pioneered the Online Action Detection (OAD) task, focusing on per-frame action classification in streaming video. Various methods, including reinforcement learning [12], future anticipation [20, 34, 39], GRU-based networks [9], minimal RNNs [2], and transformer-based approaches [15, 36, 41], have been utilized for this task. Recent trends favor transformer-based methodologies to leverage historical context for OAD [4, 14, 34, 40]. + +Shou et al. [30] introduced Online Detection of Action Start (ODAS), focusing on identifying action start frames in streaming video. Gao et al. [13] enhanced ODAS with a two-stage approach and policy gradient learning. + +Online Temporal Action Localization (On-TAL) emphasizes online detection of action instances, initially proposed by Kang et al. [18]. Methods like context-aware actionness grouping (CAG) [18], SimOn [33], 2PESNet [21], and OAT model [19] address this task by analyzing streaming videos to generate instance-level action proposals, similar to TAL outputs. + +History for Online Action Understanding In online action understanding tasks like OAD, integrating historical context with present information is beneficial. Studies like JOADAA [14] use a transformer encoder to process past information and merge it with current features. LSTR [40] employs transformer decoders for a two-stage compression process to handle extensive historical data efficiently. GateHUB [4] and MAT [34] implement one-stage history compression methods, with GateHUB incorporating a gating mechanism to calibrate attentions and suppress irrelevant frames and backgrounds. + +Existing research has explored using long-term historical data in OAD, but similar methods for OnTAL tasks are lacking. To address this, we propose integrating long-term historical context into OnTAL frameworks. However, directly applying techniques from OAD to OnTAL is suboptimal due to task differences: OAD predicts actions at the frame level, while OnTAL identifies discrete action instances. + +Thus, we propose a novel history processing and integration method tailored for OnTAL. Our approach compresses long-term historical data efficiently while retaining crucial information for understanding actions at the instance level. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Problem Definition + +In this study, we tackle the Online Temporal Action Localization (On-TAL) problem [18], where the task is to identify and classify action instances within an untrimmed video stream, $V = \{v_{i}\}_{i=1}^{T}$ , consisting of $T$ frames, alongside its corresponding $K$ label sets, $\Psi = \{\psi_{k}\}_{k=1}^{K} = \{(s_{k}, e_{k}, c_{k})\}_{k=1}^{K}$ , where $s_{k}, e_{k}$ and $c_{k}$ denote the start time, end time, and action category of the $k^{th}$ action instance, respectively. The inherent online constraint of On-TAL stipulates that at any given timestamp $t$ ( $1 \leq t \leq T$ ), only the partial video $V_{1:t} = \{v_{i}\}_{i=1}^{t}$ is observable, necessitating the generation of action proposals immediately upon detection of action ends, with the ultimate goal of sequentially recovering $\Psi$ . This paradigm imposes a stringent condition that once an action proposal is generated, it cannot be subsequently revised or removed. + +# 3.2 Proposed Framework Overview + +![](images/ffa25d3352db8106be596ea9c2dbd298dacbc973831d4f15335e7ce7e8e787f5.jpg) +Fig. 2: Proposed History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) architecture. + +Figure 2 illustrates the architecture of the proposed History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) framework. Its history module handles long-term context using a compressor. The compressed history is passed to an action anticipation head, which utilizes window-level supervision for current action anticipation to calibrate the compressor. Simultaneously, the compressed historical data is processed through future-driven history refinement to ensure alignment with the current context. The history-augmented anchor module processes short-term window features, utilizing a transformer encoder to capture temporal context and a transformer decoder to generate anchor features. These features, enhanced with the history information, are the augmented anchor features used in the prediction module. This module contains a classifier and a regressor + +to generate action proposals for anchors, followed by an online post-processing step to eliminate redundant proposals. A detailed description is given next, with additional information in the supplementary material. + +# 3.3 Initial Feature Extraction + +Each input video segment undergoes an initial transformation into a frame-level encoded representation using a pre-trained feature encoder (e.g., I3D [3], SlowFast [10]). At a given time point $t$ , these vectors are mapped into a D-dimensional feature space via a linear projection layer, represented as $F = \{f_i\}_{i=t-L_q+1}^t$ where $L_q$ is the total length of the input queue. The feature $F$ is further divided into two distinct subsets to capture different temporal contexts: the long-term history, denoted as $H = \{PE(f_i)\}_{i=t-L_q+1}^{t-L_s}$ , and the short-term temporal window, denoted as $S = \{PE(f_i)\}_{i=t-L_s+1}^t$ , where $PE$ is the positional encoding function, $L_s$ and $L_h = L_q - L_s$ are the lengths of the short-term and long-term history windows, respectively. The long-term component, $H \in \mathbb{R}^{L_h \times D}$ , is processed further in the history module, while the short-term segment, $S \in \mathbb{R}^{L_s \times D}$ , is utilized within the anchor module to produce anchor features. + +# 3.4 Future-Supervised History Module + +The purpose of the future-supervised history module is to compress the long-term historical data (H) to enhance processing efficiency while preserving vital historical information. This module further refines the compressed data by incorporating weak anticipatory supervision of actions and alignment with future contexts. The methodology is detailed next. + +History Compressor. The long-term history $L_{h}$ can be significantly long. Utilizing self-attention mechanisms to encapsulate historical temporal information is computationally intensive as the complexity scales quadratically with $L_{h}$ . Moreover, integrating this information with anchor features further increases computational demands. Inspired by prior work [40], we introduce a history compression strategy to mitigate these challenges. This method employs a standard transformer decoder integrated with a learnable historical token, $Q_{\mathrm{hist}}$ , of size $L_{\mathrm{comp}}$ , where $L_{\mathrm{comp}} << L_{h}$ . The compression is done through transformer decoder blocks performing the following operations: + +$$ +d (Q, X) = \operatorname {N o r m} \left(X _ {\text {a t t n}} + \operatorname {F F N} \left(X _ {\text {a t t n}}\right)\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +X _ {\text {a t t n}} = \operatorname {N o r m} \left(Q _ {\text {a t t n}} + \operatorname {C r o s s A t t n} \left(Q _ {\text {a t t n}}, X\right)\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +$$ +Q _ {\text {a t t n}} = \operatorname {S e l f} \operatorname {A t t n} (Q), \tag {3} +$$ + +where the decoder $d$ integrates multi-head self-attention (SelfAttn), multi-head cross-attention (CrossAttn), layer normalization (Norm), and a feed-forward network (FFN). For this compression operation, we set the query tokens $Q = Q_{\mathrm{hist}}$ with the learnable history token, and the input token $X = H$ , with the initial history feature. The architecture incorporates $N_{c}$ identical decoder blocks, + +to generate the compressed history, $H_{\mathrm{comp}} = d_{N_c}\circ \ldots \circ d_1(Q_{\mathrm{hist}},H)\in \mathbb{R}^{L_{\mathrm{comp}}\times D}$ + +Action Anticipation Head. To enhance the efficacy of the history compression, it is crucial to retain information from frames that play a significant role in predicting ongoing action instances. In this light, we introduce an innovative concept: the action anticipation head, which processes the compressed history and predicts actions within the current sliding window $S$ (considered as future actions by the history encoder). Our method prioritizes prediction at the window level, rather than at the frame-wise or anchor-level, thereby providing weak supervision through forward anticipation. This novel approach enables the history compressor to calibrate its attention by predicting future actions, allocating increased attention to frames that are pivotal in predicting action instances while diminishing emphasis on less relevant frames. + +In our architecture, the condensed historical feature $H_{\mathrm{comp}} \in \mathbb{R}^{L_{\mathrm{comp}} \times D}$ is fed into the action anticipation head to predict forthcoming actions. The anticipation mechanism is built around a simple neural network structure. Initially, a linear layer reduces the feature dimension from $D$ to $\frac{D}{4}$ . Subsequently, the features are flattened to prepare them for sequential processing. Finally, two densely connected layers are employed, with the first utilizing the ReLU activation function and the last utilizing the sigmoid function. This architecture results in the generation of predicted action probabilities within the current sliding window $S$ , denoted as $a \in [0,1]^{1 \times C}$ , where $C$ is the number of action classes. + +Future-Driven History Refinement. The objective of the future-driven history refinement module is to enhance the intermediate history feature by aligning it with the short-term temporal context, thereby making it more pertinent in understanding current action instances. Its core is built around a transformer decoder (Equation 1) that takes two inputs: the compressed history $(H_{\mathrm{comp}})$ and the short-term temporal features $(S_{\mathrm{enc}})$ . This process is executed through a series of transformations with $N_r$ blocks, depicted as $H_{\mathrm{comp}}' = d_{N_r} \circ \ldots \circ d_1(H_{\mathrm{comp}}, S_{\mathrm{enc}}) \in \mathbb{R}^{L_{\mathrm{comp}} \times D}$ . The cross-attention mechanism in the transformer decoder uses the current short-term context to calibrate the attention weights, ensuring that historical features relevant to the current context are emphasized, while others are de-emphasized. Additionally, to ensure the preservation of the intermediate historical context, we add this refined feature back to the initial compressed history and then apply normalization, resulting in the final refined history, $H_{\mathrm{ref}} = \mathrm{Norm}(H_{\mathrm{comp}}' + H_{\mathrm{comp}})$ . This method allows us to enhance historical data with short-term context while retaining the intermediate historical information. + +# 3.5 History-Augmented Anchor Module + +Anchor Feature Generation In our framework, we follow the approach used in OAT [19] to generate anchor features. It involves two main stages. First, a transformer encoder, composed of $N_{e}$ sequential blocks, is utilized to convert + +local attributes into a temporal contextual feature, $S_{\mathrm{enc}} \in \mathbb{R}^{L_s \times D}$ , which is then supplied to a transformer decoder. This decoder also receives as input a learnable anchor query $Q_{\mathrm{anc}} \in \mathbb{R}^{M \times D}$ , where $M$ is the number of pre-defined anchors. As data progresses through its $N_d$ blocks, the decoder produces the anchor feature $A \in \mathbb{R}^{M \times D}$ , where each of these $M$ feature vectors represents a pre-defined anchor. + +History-Driven Anchor Refinement In this module, we augment the initial anchor features by integrating them with refined historical data, thereby providing a more comprehensive context. To combine two sets of features, rather than using standard approaches such as concatenation and average pooling, we explore more capable techniques employing attention mechanisms. Specifically, cross-attention stands out as a better way to integrate features from different domains, particularly when integrating past context with the current [40]. Here, we utilize a standard Transformer Decoder, consisting of $N_{a}$ decoder blocks (represented by $d$ in equation 1), to handle the initial anchor feature, $A$ , and the refined historical context, $H_{\mathrm{ref}}$ , obtained from our history module. Additionally, we add the enhanced anchor feature with the original anchor feature and apply normalization to derive the final anchor feature representation $A_{\mathrm{final}} \in \mathbb{R}^{M \times D}$ . This approach ensures that the model retains original anchor information while augmenting it with historical context. The resulting final anchor feature is subsequently used in both classification and regression tasks to generate action proposals for the pre-defined anchors. + +# 3.6 Prediction Module and Online Post-Processing + +In our framework, we adopt the prediction module and online post-processing techniques as outlined in our baseline work [19]. The prediction module consists of an action classifier and a boundary regressor. Both components use the same processed anchor feature representation $A$ for their input. The function of the action classifier is to identify the specific action (or background) taking place within a given anchor segment. Conversely, the regressor is designed to compute two key measurements: the offset between the end of the target action and the anchor segment's end, and the ratio of the duration of the target action to the total duration of the anchor segment. In each frame, multiple action proposals are generated and filtered using Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS). The probabilities of the selected proposals are then queued and inputted into the Online Suppression Network (OSN), which determines their inclusion in the final instance set, $\varPsi$ . OSN functions as a substitute for the traditional offline NMS method, adhering to online constraints. + +# 3.7 Training Strategy and Loss Function + +Adaptive Focal Loss. In the video action understanding datasets, a common issue is the imbalance between action samples and background samples, with + +the latter dominating. Chen et. al. [4] proposed a modified focal loss to solve this imbalance by assigning varying levels of emphasis to different instances based on their classification confidence. Specifically, it differentiates between hard-to-classify action instances and background instances by applying distinct focal factors, thereby addressing the imbalance between action and background classes. However, this approach does not address the potential imbalance among foreground action classes. In response, inspired by equalized focal loss used in object detection tasks [22], we introduce a new loss function for OnTAL, named Adaptive Focal Loss (AFL). This new loss function dynamically adjusts the focal factor for each action class during training, informed by the gradients, to better manage class imbalance across the foreground action categories. The Adaptive Focal Loss is formulated as follows: + +$$ +A F L \left(p _ {i}, y _ {i}\right) = \sum_ {j = 0} ^ {\mathrm {C}} - y _ {i} ^ {j} \left(1 - p _ {i} ^ {j}\right) ^ {\lambda^ {j}} \log \left(p _ {i} ^ {j}\right), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $p_i$ is the predicted probability for the $i^{th}$ anchor, $y_i$ is the corresponding ground truth label, and $\lambda^j$ is the class-specific focal factor for the $j^{th}$ action category. This class-specific focal factor, $\lambda^j$ , is defined as $\lambda^j = \lambda_b$ for $j = C$ (background), and $\lambda^j = \lambda_b + \lambda_f^j$ for foreground classes, where $\lambda_b$ is the base focal factor, and $\lambda_f^j = s(1 - r^j)$ is an adaptive component for the foreground classes, with $r^j$ being the ratio of accumulated gradients for positive versus negative samples for the $j$ -th category. The scaling factor $s$ adjusts the influence of $\lambda_f^j$ . The value of $r^j$ approaches 1 for categories with less imbalance, thereby reducing the additional focal impact, and approaches 0 for categories with greater imbalance, thereby increasing the additional focal impact. Further details on this loss are available in the supplementary material. + +Final Loss. In the training phase, we compute the training objective similarly to the established baseline [19], with the exception that we apply our newly introduced adaptive focal loss (AFL) for classification tasks. To determine the overall loss for the framework, we utilize the AFL to compute the classification loss, $L_{c}$ , alongside the regression losses for offset, $L_{o}$ , and length adjustment, $L_{l}$ , which are both calculated using L1 loss. Moreover, for the action anticipation head, we introduce an additional classification loss using AFL, denoted as $L_{a}$ . Consequently, the overall loss is formulated as $\mathcal{L} = \alpha \mathcal{L}_{c} + \beta (\mathcal{L}_{o} + \mathcal{L}_{l}) + \gamma \mathcal{L}_{a}$ , where $\alpha$ , $\beta$ , and $\gamma$ represent the weighted coefficients assigned to the classification, regression, and action anticipation losses, respectively. The training and evaluation procedures are carried out in a manner similar to the baseline, with the key difference being that during inference, the output from the action anticipation head is disregarded since it serves solely as a training enhancement. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Datasets + +Commonly used datasets like THUMOS and MUSES lack action variety within each video, limiting their effectiveness in testing OnTAL models. To overcome + +this shortfall, we incorporate two egocentric procedural action datasets, EGTEA and EPIC-Kitchen-100 (EK100) to our testing. These datasets provide longer videos, a broader range of action categories, and a higher frequency of different actions per video. Importantly, the procedural nature of these actions ensures they are contextually linked to previous ones, offering a solid basis for evaluating the OnTAL models' ability to integrate historical context. Additionally, the unique egocentric viewpoint leads to situations where actions occur outside the camera's view or are obscured by the user's hand, requiring the model to deduce actions based on temporal relationships. These characteristics make EGTEA and EK100 perfect for a more comprehensive and realistic evaluation of model performance in dynamic, real-life environments. Thus, we focus on EGTEA and EK100 for validating our proposed framework, while also presenting results for THUMOS and MUSES. + +EGTEA [23] includes 28 hours of egocentric video content, comprising 86 sessions from 32 subjects performing kitchen tasks. It features 22 different action classes, with an average of 180 action instances and 15.6 action classes per video. + +EPIC-Kitchen [7] is one of the largest egocentric datasets available, containing 100 hours of video from 700 sessions. These videos capture various cooking activities in different kitchens, with an average of 121.5 action instances and 14.5 action classes per video. + +THUMOS'14 [16] consists of 200 training videos and 213 test videos, covering 20 action classes related to sports. These are untrimmed videos with an average of 15.5 action instances and only 1.2 action classes per video. + +MUSES [27] comprises 3,697 videos, amounting to a total of 716 hours, and featuring 25 action classes. These videos are taken from TV and movie dramas, with an average of 8.5 action instances and 3.3 action classes per video. + +# 4.2 Implementation Details + +In our initial extraction of video features for EGTEA, we use the I3D model pre-trained on the Kinetics dataset [3]. The video frames were processed at their original frame rate of 24 FPS and a stride of 12, yielding two feature vectors per second. For the EPIC-Kitchens dataset, we adopted SlowFast features in line with the settings utilized by state-of-the-art TAL literature. For the THU-MOS'14 dataset, we used the two-stream TSN approach [35], which was trained on the Kinetics dataset, following the methodology of prior research. Lastly, for the MUSES dataset, we used the I3D feature extractor again, aligning with the standards established by previous studies on MUSES. + +In our framework configuration, we utilize a transformer with $\mathrm{D} = 1024$ feature dimensions. In our architecture, transformer decoders have $N_{c} = N_{d} = N_{a} = 5$ blocks with 4 heads each, except the future-driven refinement decoder with $N_{r} = 2$ blocks with 4 heads each. The transformer encoder has $N_{e} = 3$ blocks with 8 heads. Regarding dataset-specific parameters, for the EGTEA and EPIC-Kitchens datasets, we set the history length $L_{h} = 48$ and the short-term window length $L_{s} = 16$ , which respectively correspond to 24 seconds of historical data and 8 seconds of short-term data. Additionally, we employ $M = 6$ anchor + +sizes: 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16. For the THUMOS'14 dataset, the history and short-term lengths are set to $L_{h} = 256$ and $L_{s} = 64$ , with $M = 6$ anchor sizes of 4, 8, 16, 32, 48, 64. For the MUSES dataset, we set $L_{h} = 300$ , $L_{s} = 150$ , and use $M = 7$ anchor sizes: 4, 9, 18, 37, 75, 112, 150. In the adaptive focal loss function, we define the parameters as follows: $\lambda_{b} = 0.025$ and $s = 0.05$ . Additionally, the weighted coefficients for the final loss are specified as $\alpha = \beta = 1$ and $\gamma = 0.2$ . For other hyperparameters and the training of both the main and suppression networks, we adhere to the settings specified in OAT [19]. Additionally, our model operates under the online execution setting as mentioned in [19], achieving an inference speed of 147 FPS on an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 GPU. + +# 4.3 Comparison with the State of the Art + +Since OnTAL is a relatively new and less investigated area, there are only a few existing models available for comparison. Our model is primarily evaluated against the current leading OnTAL model, OAT. Additionally, we have included the performance metrics of other available models for comparison, as reported in the existing literature. + +Table 1: Comparison of mAP (\%) across various tIOU thresholds with OnTAL baseline on the Procedural Egocentric (PREGO) Datasets. + +

+ +In Table 1, we present the performance of our model on the Procedural Egocentric (PREGO) datasets, specifically the EGTEA and EPIC-KITCHENS datasets. Our findings indicate a notable improvement over the current state-of-the-art OnTAL model, OAT. This enhancement underlines the effectiveness of our proposed history integration technique in understanding procedural and egocentric instance-level actions. The results convincingly demonstrate that our model holds a significant advantage in handling PREGO scenarios. + +On the other hand, Table 2 shows our model's performance on non-PREGO datasets, namely THUMOS and MUSES. Here, our model displays performance levels that are comparable to, or in some instances slightly superior to, existing models (with some exceptions). These results suggest that while our model is still effective in non-PREGO contexts, the impact of historical information is more pronounced and beneficial in PREGO situations. This distinction underscores the specialized advantage of our model in scenarios requiring nuanced, instance-level action understanding within procedural and egocentric contexts. + +Table 2: Comparison of mAP (%) across various tIOU thresholds on the Non-PREGO Standard OnTAL Datasets.

Figure 3(a) presents a case from the procedural egocentric (PREGO) dataset EGTEA. Here, it is evident that the baseline model predicted a significantly higher number of false positives and missed action instances, failing to capture the broader context that our model provides. In Figure 3(b), we examine an example from the non-PREGO dataset THUMOS.

The experimental results are summarized in Table 3. + +Removing the action anticipation head ('w/o AH'), which leaves only the history compressor and future-driven history refinement active, results in a notable performance decline across most tIOU thresholds. This indicates the critical role of the action anticipation head in calibrating the attention mechanism of the history compressor.

When both the action anticipation head and the future-driven history refinement are removed ('w/o AH & FDHR'), leaving only the history compressor, there is an even more noticeable performance decrease, though still not as drastic as removing the entire module. Finally, completely eliminating the FSHM ('w/o FSHM') leads to a significant drop in performance across all tIOU thresholds, typically by about $2 - 3\%$ , which underlines the effectiveness of the proposed future-supervised history component in our framework. + +Comparison with other SOTA History Modules. We conducted an analysis to assess the effectiveness of our history module compared to other state-of-the-art (SOTA) history processing methods. Since this is the first-ever exploration of historical context processing specifically for OnTAL, and no prior methods have been designed for OnTAL, we opted to compare it with two + +SOTA history modules developed for OAD tasks: GateHUB and LSTR. Table 4 presents a comparison of our proposed future-supervised history module against alternative methods for processing historical data.

In GateHUB's history module, a one-stage history compression method is utilized, similar to ours, but it incorporates a gating mechanism to adjust the focus during the compression process, aiming to filter out irrelevant and background frames. However, our results demonstrate the superior performance of our approach, highlighting the effectiveness of our action anticipation guided attention calibration compared to their gating mechanism, especially within the context of the PREGO OnTAL task. Consequently, we can assert that our future-supervised history module is more effective for OnTAL applications than other SOTA history processing methods designed for OAD. + +Impact of the Adaptive Focal Loss In Table 5, we compare our introduced adaptive focal loss function with traditional cross-entropy, standard focal loss (with a constant focal factor for all classes), and the background suppression focal (BSF) loss as utilized in GateHub (with distinct fixed focal factors for foreground and background). Our findings show that cross-entropy, regular focal loss, and BSF loss all result in lower mAP across various tIOUs when compared to our adaptive focal loss function. This underscores the effectiveness of applying adaptive focusing factors to the foreground classes based on the gradient + +ratio of positive-to-negative samples during training, in addition to applying a distinct focal factor for the background class.

+ +Qualitative Analysis of the History Module To assess the effectiveness of our future-supervised history module beyond quantitative metrics, we conducted a qualitative analysis by examining the attention weights. This evaluation aims to determine if the history compressor within the module can successfully downplay irrelevant frames while highlighting those crucial to the current action. A representative example in Figure 4 demonstrates this by showcasing the subject performing a "cutting" action on a tomato. In this context, we divided the historical frames into two groups: those receiving higher attention than the median, and those receiving lower. The frames receiving more focus depict pertinent ac + +![](images/f5be0f185eda320cb4bedf71ce13f0d4b7368910f4e0de1ffcf24d4b5cb8ac1b.jpg) +Fig. 4: Frame attention analysis for an "cutting" a tomato example from EGTEA dataset.

Conversely, the less emphasized frames mostly include irrelevant egocentric movements and unrelated background details, underscoring the module's capability to filter out irrelevant information to the ongoing action. + +# 5 Conclusions and Future Work + +In conclusion, we present a novel approach to Online Temporal Action Localization (OnTAL) by introducing a History-Augmented Anchor Transformer, which innovatively combines long-term historical information with anchor-level features. We designed a unique history processing method, incorporating action anticipation-guided history compression and future context-driven alignment, to enhance instance-level action prediction performance. Additionally, We introduced an adaptive focal loss function that addresses the class imbalance issue between foreground and background, as well as among different foreground classes. Our comprehensive analysis across four datasets demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach on the OnTAL task, particularly highlighting the influence of our history processing and integration in procedural egocentric (PREGO) contexts. + +Our framework, while capable of utilizing long-term history, is restricted by a fixed history length. This creates a challenge as determining the optimal length for this history involves extensive manual adjustments. Furthermore, different instances within the same use case may require varying lengths of history—one may need a shorter span, while another may require a longer one. Although our system can filter out irrelevant information and focus on pertinent details within this fixed span, it lacks the ability to dynamically modify the history span. It would be ideal if the history component could automatically adjust its length to capture the long-term history and allocate attention to specific frames as needed, similar to the adaptive attention span techniques used in language models [32]. This adjustment would not only enable more effective long-term context capture but also reduce overall computational demands. + +# Acknowledgments + +This work is supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Grants No. FW-HTF-2128743, IIS-2302838, IIS-1814631, and CNS-2038493, ONR grant N00014-21-1-2431 from NCI, and U.S. Department of Homeland Security grant 22STESE00001-03-02.

Online video understanding often relies on individual frames, leading to frame-by-frame predictions. Recent advancements such as Online Temporal Action Localization (OnTAL), extend this approach to instance-level predictions. However, existing methods mainly focus on short-term context, neglecting historical information. To address this, we introduce the History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT) Framework for OnTAL. By integrating historical context, our framework enhances the synergy between long-term and short-term information, improving the quality of anchor features crucial for classification and localization. We evaluate our model on both procedural egocentric (PREGO) datasets (EGTEA and EPIC) and standard non-PREGO OnTAL datasets (THUMOS and MUSES). Results show that our model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches significantly on PREGO datasets and achieves comparable or slightly superior performance on non-PREGO datasets, underscoring the importance of leveraging long-term history, especially in procedural and egocentric action scenarios.

To address these, the Online Anchor Transformer (OAT) [19] was introduced, using a Transformer architecture with instance-level supervision. However, OAT's reliance on short-term analysis within a sliding window neglects the potential benefits of incorporating long-term historical context, which is crucial for accurately predicting complex action sequences. While there have been attempts to incorporate historical data in other areas of online action understanding, such as Online Action Detection (OAD) [4,40], the fusion of historical context with OnTAL, particularly with anchor-based Transformer models, remains largely unexplored. Therefore, this paper aims to bridge this gap by integrating historical context into the OnTAL framework, proposing a novel framework named History-Augmented Anchor Transformer (HAT).

Chen et. al. [4] proposed a modified focal loss to solve this imbalance by assigning varying levels of emphasis to different instances based on their classification confidence. Specifically, it differentiates between hard-to-classify action instances and background instances by applying distinct focal factors, thereby addressing the imbalance between action and background classes. However, this approach does not address the potential imbalance among foreground action classes. In response, inspired by equalized focal loss used in object detection tasks [22], we introduce a new loss function for OnTAL, named Adaptive Focal Loss (AFL). This new loss function dynamically adjusts the focal factor for each action class during training, informed by the gradients, to better manage class imbalance across the foreground action categories.

It would be ideal if the history component could automatically adjust its length to capture the long-term history and allocate attention to specific frames as needed, similar to the adaptive attention span techniques used in language models [32].

Three-dimensional perception from multi-view cameras is a crucial component in autonomous driving systems, which involves multiple tasks like 3D object detection and bird's-eye-view (BEV) semantic segmentation. To improve perception precision, large image encoders, high-resolution images, and long-term temporal inputs have been adopted in recent 3D perception models, bringing remarkable performance gains. However, these techniques are often incompatible in training and inference scenarios due to computational resource constraints. Besides, modern autonomous driving systems prefer to adopt an end-to-end framework for multi-task 3D perception, which can simplify the overall system architecture and reduce the implementation complexity. However, conflict between tasks often arises when optimizing multiple tasks jointly within an end-to-end 3D perception model. To alleviate these issues, we present an end-to-end framework named HENet for multi-task 3D perception in this paper. Specifically, we propose a hybrid image encoding network, using a large image encoder for short-term frames and a small image encoder for long-term temporal frames. Then, we introduce a temporal feature integration module based on the attention mechanism to fuse the features of different frames extracted by the two aforementioned hybrid image encoders. Finally, according to the characteristics of each perception task, we utilize BEV features of different grid sizes, independent BEV encoders, and task decoders for different tasks.

The second image encoder handles the long-term sequences by down-sampling the inputs to low resolution and utilizing a small backbone and FPN to extract image features.

Without loss of generality, we choose two popular BEV-based approaches, BEVDepth [18] and BEVStereo [17], as examples to show how the proposed hybrid image encoding network works. Specifically, for the first image encoder, which processes the short-term frames, we keep a high resolution for images and utilize a large backbone (e.g., VoVNetV2-99 [15]) followed by FPN [22] to extract the features. Then, multiple convolution layers and EM algorithm in BEVStereo [17] are applied to generate stereo depth and frustum features. BEVPoolv2 [10] converts frustum features into multi-scale BEV features. As for the second image encoder, we first down-sample the image size for the long-term image sequences and then use a small backbone (e.g., ResNet-50) followed by FPN [22] to extract the multi-view image features. After that, we adopt the simple monocular depth estimation network in BEVDepth [18] to obtain frustum features. Further, we use BEVPoolv2 [10] to transform frustum features in perspective view into multi-scale BEV features according to the camera's intrinsic and extrinsic parameters. We select different BEV sizes for 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks according to experiments in Section 4.4.

However, for BEV feature grid size, we find that different tasks prefer different BEV grid sizes. We conjecture this inconsistency can be attributed to the tasks' characteristics. The 3D object detection task focuses on localizing local foreground objects. In contrast, the BEV semantic segmentation task is required to comprehensively understand the large-scale scene, including lane lines and roads. As shown in the bottom of Figure 5, the BEV feature of detection is local highlighting, while the segmentation feature shows more activated regions globally. Therefore, when the BEV feature grid size is too small, the BEV semantic segmentation task suffers from aggregating local features and cannot capture global information for the whole scene understanding.

Three-dimensional perception from multi-view cameras is a crucial component in autonomous driving systems, which involves multiple tasks like 3D object detection and bird's-eye-view (BEV) semantic segmentation. To improve perception precision, large image encoders, high-resolution images, and long-term temporal inputs have been adopted in recent 3D perception models, bringing remarkable performance gains. However, these techniques are often incompatible in training and inference scenarios due to computational resource constraints. Besides, modern autonomous driving systems prefer to adopt an end-to-end framework for multi-task 3D perception, which can simplify the overall system architecture and reduce the implementation complexity. However, conflict between tasks often arises when optimizing multiple tasks jointly within an end-to-end 3D perception model. To alleviate these issues, we present an end-to-end framework named HENet for multi-task 3D perception in this paper. Specifically, we propose a hybrid image encoding network, using a large image encoder for short-term frames and a small image encoder for long-term temporal frames. Then, we introduce a temporal feature integration module based on the attention mechanism to fuse the features of different frames extracted by the two aforementioned hybrid image encoders. Finally, according to the characteristics of each perception task, we utilize BEV features of different grid sizes, independent BEV encoders, and task decoders for different tasks.

Specifically, for the first image encoder, which processes the short-term frames, we keep a high resolution for images and utilize a large backbone (e.g., VoVNetV2-99 [15]) followed by FPN [22] to extract the features. Then, multiple convolution layers and EM algorithm in BEVStereo [17] are applied to generate stereo depth and frustum features. BEVPoolv2 [10] converts frustum features into multi-scale BEV features. As for the second image encoder, we first down-sample the image size for the long-term image sequences and then use a small backbone (e.g., ResNet-50) followed by FPN [22] to extract the multi-view image features. After that, we adopt the simple monocular depth estimation network in BEVDepth [18] to obtain frustum features. Further, we use BEVPoolv2 [10] to transform frustum features in perspective view into multi-scale BEV features according to the camera's intrinsic and extrinsic parameters.

As shown in the upper part of Figure 5, we observe that the results of 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks are consistently improved when the input resolutions and the number of temporal frames increase. However, for BEV feature grid size, we find that different tasks prefer different BEV grid sizes. We conjecture this inconsistency can be attributed to the tasks' characteristics. The 3D object detection task focuses on localizing local foreground objects. In contrast, the BEV semantic segmentation task is required to comprehensively understand the large-scale scene, including lane lines and roads. As shown in the bottom of Figure 5, the BEV feature of detection is local highlighting, while the segmentation feature shows more activated regions globally. Therefore, when the BEV feature grid size is too small, the BEV semantic segmentation task suffers from aggregating local features and cannot capture global information for the whole scene understanding.

Experimental results show that HENet obtains the state-of-the-art multi-task results on nuScenes, including 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.782, + 0.394, + 0.8 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Acknowledgments" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.81, + 0.785, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "This work was supported by National Key R&D Program of China (Grant No. 2022ZD0160305)." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.683, + 0.115, + 0.732, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "HENet" + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.769, + 0.116, + 0.786, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "15" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.217, + 0.145, + 0.324, + 0.161 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "References" + }, + { + "type": "ref_text", + "bbox": [ + 0.226, + 0.173, + 0.785, + 0.201 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1.

Three-dimensional perception from multi-view cameras is a crucial component in autonomous driving systems, which involves multiple tasks like 3D object detection and bird's-eye-view (BEV) semantic segmentation. To improve perception precision, large image encoders, high-resolution images, and long-term temporal inputs have been adopted in recent 3D perception models, bringing remarkable performance gains. However, these techniques are often incompatible in training and inference scenarios due to computational resource constraints. Besides, modern autonomous driving systems prefer to adopt an end-to-end framework for multi-task 3D perception, which can simplify the overall system architecture and reduce the implementation complexity. However, conflict between tasks often arises when optimizing multiple tasks jointly within an end-to-end 3D perception model. To alleviate these issues, we present an end-to-end framework named HENet for multi-task 3D perception in this paper. Specifically, we propose a hybrid image encoding network, using a large image encoder for short-term frames and a small image encoder for long-term temporal frames. Then, we introduce a temporal feature integration module based on the attention mechanism to fuse the features of different frames extracted by the two aforementioned hybrid image encoders. Finally, according to the characteristics of each perception task, we utilize BEV features of different grid sizes, independent BEV encoders, and task decoders for different tasks. Experimental results show that HENet achieves state-of-the-art end-to-end multi-task 3D perception results on the nuScenes benchmark, including 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation. + +# 1 Introduction + +Efficient and accurate perception of the surrounding environment from multiview cameras is essential for the autonomous driving system, which serves as the basis for subsequent trajectory prediction and motion planning tasks. A desirable 3D perception system should handle several tasks simultaneously, including 3D + +object detection and bird's-eye-view (BEV) semantic segmentation. There has been an increasing emphasis on end-to-end multi-task frameworks, as such systems have the potential to streamline the overall architecture and alleviate implementation complexities. + +However, end-to-end multi-task 3D perception faces the following challenges. First, when designing high-performance camera-based 3D perception models, researchers usually exploit techniques like higher + +![](images/84ed62283432170db651053d248302e761999c8843ae0b89911337be9831a4c6.jpg) +Fig.1: Comparisons of end-to-end multi-task results on nuScenes val set. + +resolution images, longer temporal inputs, and larger image encoders to improve 3D perception accuracy. Nevertheless, simultaneously employing these techniques on a single perception model would result in a formidable cost during training. To alleviate this issue, a few works [32,46] store past information in memory, which has disadvantages such as inconsistency of temporal features and inefficiency of data augmentations. Therefore, many of the latest methods [26,37,44,53] do not adopt this strategy, but recompute features of past frames, albeit at the expense of training costs. + +Second, to process long-term temporal inputs, many works [11,17,18] directly sum or concatenate the features from different frames in BEV along the channel dimension, showing unsatisfactory perception performance with longer time sequence. The reason is that the features of the moving objects are misaligned and scattered across large regions in BEV along their trajectories in different frames. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce dynamic alignment mechanisms [28,37] for location correction of moving objects. + +Third, for end-to-end multi-task learning, existing works [8, 19, 28] use a shared encoding network with multiple decoders for different tasks. However, experimental results in these works show that jointly learning multiple tasks in the end-to-end fashion is often sub-optimal, i.e., the performance of each task in multi-task learning is lower than standing-alone training. To alleviate this issue, some works [28] propose adjusting the loss weight for each task, but there is no comprehensive analysis of why a conflict exists between the tasks. + +In this paper, we present HENet, an end-to-end multi-task 3D perception framework for multi-view cameras. To integrate large image encoders, high-resolution images, and long-term inputs, we propose a hybrid image encoding network that adopts different resolutions and image encoders for different frames. Specifically, we use high-resolution inputs, a large image backbone, and a complex perspective transformation network for short-term frames to produce high-precision BEV features. For long-term frames, low-resolution inputs are chosen, and a small image backbone and a simple perspective transformation network are employed to generate BEV features efficiently. The proposed hybrid image en + +coding network can be easily incorporated into existing perception models. Then, we introduce a temporal integration module to align and fuse the BEV features from multi-frames dynamically. Specifically, in this module, we present a temporal backward and forward process with adjacent frame fusion modules (AFFM) to aggregate BEV features, addressing the problem of aligning moving objects with the attention mechanism. Finally, we deeply analyze the conflict between 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation in multi-task learning and find the critical problem is that different tasks prefer different BEV feature grid sizes. Based on this observation, we select BEV features of different grid sizes for different tasks. The selected features are sent to independent BEV encoding networks and task decoders to alleviate the task conflicts further to obtain the final 3D perception results. + +The main contributions of this work are summarized as follows: + +- We present an end-to-end multi-task 3D perception framework with a hybrid image encoding network to take advantage of high-resolution images, long-term inputs, and large image encoders with a smaller training cost. +- We introduce a temporal integration module based on the attention mechanism to fuse the multi-frame BEV features and enable the dynamic interframe alignment for moving objects. +- We analyze the task conflicts in end-to-end multi-task learning and propose a feature size selection and independent feature encoding to alleviate this problem. +- We achieve state-of-the-art results in end-to-end multi-task learning on nuScenes, including 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Multi-View 3D Object Detection + +Three-dimensional object detection from images is a crucial task in multi-task 3D perception. Early approaches focus on predicting objects directly from monocular images [2, 4, 31, 34, 36, 38-40]. Recently, multi-view cameras become the default sensors for autonomous driving cars, which can provide more information. Based on the type of view transformations, current multi-view 3D object detection works can be divided into two categories, i.e., BEV-based methods [5, 9, 11, 12, 14, 17-19, 32, 42, 44, 53] and sparse query methods [13, 24-28, 37, 41, 46, 49]. BEV-based Methods. BEVDet [12] utilizes Lift-Splat-Shoot (LSS) [33] to generate the BEV feature from multi-view image features with depth prediction. To address the issue of inaccurate depth estimation in BEVDet [12], BEVDepth [18] introduces extrinsic parameters for the depth prediction network and adds additional depth supervision from LiDAR point clouds. BEVDet4D [11] incorporates temporal information by aligning BEV features from different frames through ego-vehicle transformations. Based on BEVDepth [18], BEVStereo [17] and STS [42] present temporal stereo techniques to improve depth prediction further. To gather long-term temporal information, BEVFormer [19] and Polarformer [14] regard the BEV feature as queries and utilize cross-attention to + +aggregate information from all past frames. BEVFormerv2 [44] further introduces perspective space supervision to enhance the performance of BEVFormer. SOLOFusion [32] proposes to first fuse adjacent short-term series BEV features and then fuse long-term series. HoP [53] designs a historical object prediction module, which can be easily plugged into any temporal 3D object detectors. AeDet [5] proposes azimuth-equivariant convolution operations and anchors to unify the BEV representation in different azimuths. + +Sparse Query Methods. As a pioneer in sparse query method, DETR3D [41] extends DETR [29] by utilizing a sparse 3D object query set to index features. 3D-MAN [46] designs an alignment and aggregation module to extract temporal features from the memory bank that stores information generated by a single frame detector. PETR [27] builds upon DETR3D [41] by aggregating image features with 3D position information. PETRv2 [28] introduces temporal information into 3D position embedding in PETR [27] to allow temporal alignment for object positions across different frames. Sparse4D [24] assigns and projects 4D keypoints to generate different view, scale, and timestamp features. Sparse4Dv2 [25] improves the temporal fusion module to reduce the computational complexity and enable long-term fusion. StreamPetr [37] presents an efficient intermediate representation to transfer temporal information like BEV-based methods to avoid repeated calculation of features. SparseBEV [26] designs a scale-adaptive self-attention module for query feature interaction and proposes spatiotemporal sampling and adaptive mixing to aggregate temporal features into current queries. To explore long-range detection, Far3D [13] uses a perspective-aware aggregation module to capture features of long-range objects and designs a denoising method to improve query propagation. + +# 2.2 BEV Semantic Segmentation + +Another task in multi-task 3D perception involves BEV semantic segmentation, which aims to comprehend the overall scene. Many works [7,30,33,35,45] share a common paradigm like BEVDet [12], except for different task heads. VPN [30] trains their network in a 3D graphics environment and utilizes domain adaptation techniques to transfer it for handling real-world data. M2BEV [43] adeptly transforms multi-view 2D image features into 3D BEV features in the ego vehicle coordinates. This BEV representation is paramount, as it facilitates sharing a singular encoder across diverse tasks. CVT [50] employs a cross-view attention mechanism to implicitly learn the mapping from an individual camera view to a canonical map view representation. Each camera utilizes position embeddings dependent on its intrinsic and extrinsic calibration. HDMapNet [16] encodes image features from surrounding cameras or point clouds from LiDAR and predicts vectorized map elements in a BEV map. + +# 2.3 End-to-end Multi-task Learning + +In autonomous driving scenarios, multi-task learning, usually including 3D object detection and BEV segmentation [30, 35, 48, 52], is crucial for scene un- + +![](images/a2f5d4ee164329d215621eb3fdc818fe4bf1a67fb7cdf58b9b1e883c5974de9a.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overall architecture of HENet. i) Hybrid Image Encoding Network uses image encoders of varying complexity to encode long-sequence frames and short-term images, respectively. ii) Temporal Feature Integration module based on the attention mechanism fuses multi-frame features from multiple image encoders. iii) Based on the characteristics of different tasks, we select BEV feature maps of appropriate sizes and perform independent BEV encoding for each task. + +derstanding. Current works often follow the joint training strategy of BEV-Former [19], which generates a unified BEV feature map for detection and segmentation tasks. PETRv2 [28] initializes two query sets for detection and segmentation tasks and sends each query set to corresponding task heads. The latest work UniAD [8] integrates three major tasks, including perception, prediction, and planning, and six sub-tasks into an end-to-end framework with query design as the connection between tasks. + +These works show conflicts between tasks when combining detection and segmentation tasks. Nevertheless, no comprehensive analysis has been reported to address this issue. In this work, we make an attempt to investigate the problem of performance degradation in multi-task training of 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation. Most importantly, we propose an efficient multitask 3D perception framework and an effective training strategy to alleviate this issue. Our model can achieve state-of-the-art 3D object detection and BEV segmentation results in multi-task settings. + +# 3 Method + +We illustrate the overall architecture of HENet in Figure 2. Given temporal multi-view image inputs, a hybrid image encoding network extracts their BEV features. Then, we use a temporal feature integration module to aggregate the multi-frame BEV features. Finally, we send BEV features in different grid sizes to independent BEV feature encoders and decoders for different tasks to obtain the multi-task perception results. + +# 3.1 Hybrid Image Encoding Network + +As shown in Figure 2, the hybrid image encoding network contains two image encoders with different complexity. Specifically, the first one processes short-term frames, which scales up the high-resolution inputs and sends them to an image backbone and a feature pyramid network (FPN). Then, a complex 2D-to-BEV network is applied to produce high-precision BEV features. The second image encoder handles the long-term sequences by down-sampling the inputs to low resolution and utilizing a small backbone and FPN to extract image features. Similarly, a simple 2D-to-BEV network is adopted afterward for efficient BEV feature generation. Some parts of the two image encoders can be shared. For example, we can use the same backbone with a different 2D-to-BEV network. However, the first image encoder is more complex than the second one. + +The aforementioned hybrid image encoding network can be incorporated into existing multi-view 3D object detection methods. Without loss of generality, we choose two popular BEV-based approaches, BEVDepth [18] and BEVStereo [17], as examples to show how the proposed hybrid image encoding network works. Specifically, for the first image encoder, which processes the short-term frames, we keep a high resolution for images and utilize a large backbone (e.g., VoVNetV2-99 [15]) followed by FPN [22] to extract the features. Then, multiple convolution layers and EM algorithm in BEVStereo [17] are applied to generate stereo depth and frustum features. BEVPoolv2 [10] converts frustum features into multi-scale BEV features. As for the second image encoder, we first down-sample the image size for the long-term image sequences and then use a small backbone (e.g., ResNet-50) followed by FPN [22] to extract the multi-view image features. After that, we adopt the simple monocular depth estimation network in BEVDepth [18] to obtain frustum features. Further, we use BEVPoolv2 [10] to transform frustum features in perspective view into multi-scale BEV features according to the camera's intrinsic and extrinsic parameters. We select different BEV sizes for 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks according to experiments in Section 4.4. Specifically, we utilize BEV sizes of 256x256 for the 3D object detection task and 128x128 for the BEV semantic segmentation task. + +# 3.2 Temporal Feature Integration + +After generating multi-frame BEV features by the hybrid image encoding network, we adopt temporal integration modules to fuse the BEV features, as shown in Figure 3. The temporal integration module consists of a backward process and a forward process. The backward process fuses features of the current frame to past frames, while the forward process aggregates features from the past to the current frame. Algorithm 1 provides the pseudo-code of the aforementioned temporal integration process. In each process step, we employ an adjacent frame fusion module (AFFM) with a cross-attention to fuse the BEV features from two adjacent frames. Specifically, assuming the BEV features of + +![](images/a1d62e7fb5fe9d4a9423682115672c205ec960a114187e22ca89c03126eed415.jpg) +Fig. 3: Architecture of Temporal Feature Integration module.

With adjacent attention, AFFM can align the features of moving objects and avoid fusing redundant background information. Besides, the attention mechanism allows us to adopt AFFM to both BEV-based and sparse query methods. + +![](images/b0737c8155491a753a3b10b36da58e1b522a7f29223b6a71140c35c499c9c7c9.jpg) +Fig.4: Design of Independent BEV Feature Encoding. Each task decoder is provided with BEV feature maps in different grid sizes through independent adaptive feature selection and BEV encoding. + +# 3.3 Independent BEV Feature Encoding + +Based on our empirical analysis in Section 4.4, different tasks prefer different sizes of BEV features. Thus, after obtaining the fused multi-scale BEV features, we first assign different sizes of BEV features to other tasks. We then encode the BEV feature for each task independently. Inspired by BEVFusion [21], the proposed encoding process comprises adaptive feature selection and BEV encoding. + +Specifically, the adaptive feature selection $f_{adaptive}(\cdot)$ applies a simple channel attention module to select important features as follows: + +$$ +f _ {\text {a d a p t i v e}} (\mathbf {F}) = \sigma \left(\mathbf {W} f _ {\text {a v g}} (\mathbf {F})\right) \cdot \mathbf {F}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{F} \in \mathbb{R}^{X \times Y \times C}$ is the BEV features, $\mathbf{W}$ denotes linear transform matrix, $f_{\mathrm{avg}}$ indicates the global average pooling, and $\sigma$ represents the Sigmoid function. For the BEV encoder, we adopt three ResNet [6] residual blocks and a simple FPN [22] following existing BEV-based methods [11,18] to perform local feature integration on the BEV feature map. Notably, the adaptive feature selection and BEV encoders for different tasks share the same architecture but have different weights. + +# 3.4 Decoders and Losses + +We adopt Centerpoint [47] as the 3D object detection decoder and SegNet [1] as the BEV semantic segmentation decoder. The classification and regression loss of Centerpoint [47] is represented by $\mathcal{L}_{cls}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{bbox}$ . We use focal loss [23] for the BEV semantic segmentation task. The loss functions for vehicles, drivable areas, and lane lines are denoted as $\mathcal{L}_{segveh}$ , $\mathcal{L}_{segarea}$ , and $\mathcal{L}_{segdiv}$ , respectively. + +The final loss function is defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \alpha_ {\text {d e p t h}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d e p t h}} + \alpha_ {\text {c l s}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c l s}} + \alpha_ {\text {b b o x}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {b b o x}} + \tag {4} +$$ + +$$ +\alpha_ {s e g v e h} \mathcal {L} _ {s e g v e h} + \alpha_ {s e g a r e a} \mathcal {L} _ {s e g a r e a} + \alpha_ {s e g d i v} \mathcal {L} _ {s e g d i v}, +$$ + +where $\mathcal{L}_{depth}$ is a binary cross entropy loss for depth estimation and $\alpha$ is the loss weight. + +Table 1: Comparison of end-to-end multi-task learning on the nuScences val set.

+ +# 4.2 Dataset and Metrics + +We evaluate our model on the nuScenes [3] dataset, a large-scale autonomous driving dataset containing 1,000 driving scenes (700 for training, 150 for validation, and 150 for testing), including cities, highways, and rural roads. Each scene contains various objects, such as vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. + +For 3D object detection evaluation, NuScenes provides a set of evaluation metrics, including mean Average Precision (mAP) and five true positive (TP) metrics: ATE, ASE, AOE, AVE, and AAE for measuring translation, scale, orientation, velocity, and attribute errors respectively. The overall performance is measured by the nuScenes Detection Score (NDS), which is the composite of the above metrics. For BEV semantic segmentation, we use mean intersection over union (mIoU) as the metric following the settings of LSS [33]. + +# 4.3 Main Results + +We compare the proposed HENet with previous end-to-end multi-task models on the nuScenes val sets in Table 1 and Figure 1. HENet shows favorable multitask performance and achieves state-of-the-art results. Specifically, HENet outperforms BEVFormer [19] by 7.9 NDS and $8.7\mathrm{mAP}$ on the 3D object detection task and $8.6\mathrm{mIoU}$ on the BEV semantic segmentation task. As for PETRv2 [28], which shows excellent BEV semantic segmentation performance, our models surpass it by 10.4 NDS on the 3D object detection task while keeping competitive performance on the BEV semantic segmentation task. + +In addition, we compare the training time per epoch (with the same batch size) with these methods. HENet outperforms all other methods with less training time, showing the proposed HENet is more efficient. Moreover, HENet can use more frames to improve performance, while other methods, like PETRv2, cannot use 9 frames due to the limitation of GPU memory. + +Table 3: Comparison of 3D object detection results on nuScences test set.

+ +# 4.4 Analysis of Conflict in End-to-end Multi-task 3D Perception + +To analyze the conflict between 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks, we first conduct experiments on single tasks to find the optimal configuration of training and models, including the resolution of the input images, the number of temporal frames, and the BEV feature grid sizes. As shown in the upper part of Figure 5, we observe that the results of 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks are consistently improved when the input resolutions and the number of temporal frames increase. However, for BEV feature grid size, we find that different tasks prefer different BEV grid sizes. We conjecture this inconsistency can be attributed to the tasks' characteristics. The 3D object detection task focuses on localizing local foreground objects. In contrast, the BEV semantic segmentation task is required to comprehensively understand the large-scale scene, including lane lines and roads. As shown in the bottom of Figure 5, the BEV feature of detection is local highlighting, while the segmentation feature shows more activated regions globally. Therefore, when the BEV feature grid size is too small, the BEV semantic segmentation task suffers from aggregating local features and cannot capture global information for the whole scene understanding. By contrast, larger BEV features can provide more local details for the 3D object detection task. + +# 4.5 Single Task Results + +Considering that many works on 3D perception only predict single-task results, we conduct experiments on single tasks and compare the results of HENet with these task-specific models. Through this comparison, we illustrate the superiority of our Hybrid Image Encoding Network and Temporal Feature Integration, and further demonstrate the effectiveness of HENet. + +3D Object Detection Results. We present the results of HENet for single 3D object detection task on the nuScenes val and test sets in Table 2 and 3, respectively.

+ +global attention and the larger BEV encoder introduce more model parameters and achieve worse performance than pair-wise attention. This demonstrates that the performance improvements in pair-wise attention come from the design itself rather than the increased model parameters. + +Independent BEV Feature Encoding. As analyzed in Sec.4.4, 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks prefer different BEV feature grid sizes. As shown in Table 8, experimental results show that using BEV feature maps in different sizes for different tasks achieves the best multi-task performance trade-off. Moreover, adopting independent adaptive feature selection and BEV encoder for each task can further improve the multi-task performance of 1.7 NDS, 1.1 mAP, and 3.4 mIoU. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we present HENet, an end-to-end framework for multi-task 3D perception. We propose a hybrid image encoding network and the temporal feature integration module to deal efficiently with high-resolution and long-term temporal image inputs. Besides, we adopt task-specific BEV grid sizes, independent BEV feature encoder and decoder to address multi-task conflict issue. Experimental results show that HENet obtains the state-of-the-art multi-task results on nuScenes, including 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation. + +# Acknowledgments + +This work was supported by National Key R&D Program of China (Grant No. 2022ZD0160305). + +# References + +1.

Three-dimensional perception from multi-view cameras is a crucial component in autonomous driving systems, which involves multiple tasks like 3D object detection and bird's-eye-view (BEV) semantic segmentation. To improve perception precision, large image encoders, high-resolution images, and long-term temporal inputs have been adopted in recent 3D perception models, bringing remarkable performance gains. However, these techniques are often incompatible in training and inference scenarios due to computational resource constraints. Besides, modern autonomous driving systems prefer to adopt an end-to-end framework for multi-task 3D perception, which can simplify the overall system architecture and reduce the implementation complexity. However, conflict between tasks often arises when optimizing multiple tasks jointly within an end-to-end 3D perception model. To alleviate these issues, we present an end-to-end framework named HENet for multi-task 3D perception in this paper. Specifically, we propose a hybrid image encoding network, using a large image encoder for short-term frames and a small image encoder for long-term temporal frames. Then, we introduce a temporal feature integration module based on the attention mechanism to fuse the features of different frames extracted by the two aforementioned hybrid image encoders. Finally, according to the characteristics of each perception task, we utilize BEV features of different grid sizes, independent BEV encoders, and task decoders for different tasks. Experimental results show that HENet achieves state-of-the-art end-to-end multi-task 3D perception results on the nuScenes benchmark, including 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 592, + 229, + 604 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 592, + 229, + 604 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 592, + 229, + 604 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 615, + 482, + 664 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 615, + 482, + 664 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 615, + 482, + 664 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Efficient and accurate perception of the surrounding environment from multiview cameras is essential for the autonomous driving system, which serves as the basis for subsequent trajectory prediction and motion planning tasks.

Early approaches focus on predicting objects directly from monocular images [2, 4, 31, 34, 36, 38-40]. Recently, multi-view cameras become the default sensors for autonomous driving cars, which can provide more information. Based on the type of view transformations, current multi-view 3D object detection works can be divided into two categories, i.e., BEV-based methods [5, 9, 11, 12, 14, 17-19, 32, 42, 44, 53] and sparse query methods [13, 24-28, 37, 41, 46, 49]. BEV-based Methods. BEVDet [12] utilizes Lift-Splat-Shoot (LSS) [33] to generate the BEV feature from multi-view image features with depth prediction. To address the issue of inaccurate depth estimation in BEVDet [12], BEVDepth [18] introduces extrinsic parameters for the depth prediction network and adds additional depth supervision from LiDAR point clouds.

Specifically, for the first image encoder, which processes the short-term frames, we keep a high resolution for images and utilize a large backbone (e.g., VoVNetV2-99 [15]) followed by FPN [22] to extract the features. Then, multiple convolution layers and EM algorithm in BEVStereo [17] are applied to generate stereo depth and frustum features. BEVPoolv2 [10] converts frustum features into multi-scale BEV features.

As shown in the upper part of Figure 5, we observe that the results of 3D object detection and BEV semantic segmentation tasks are consistently improved when the input resolutions and the number of temporal frames increase. However, for BEV feature grid size, we find that different tasks prefer different BEV grid sizes. We conjecture this inconsistency can be attributed to the tasks' characteristics. The 3D object detection task focuses on localizing local foreground objects. In contrast, the BEV semantic segmentation task is required to comprehensively understand the large-scale scene, including lane lines and roads. As shown in the bottom of Figure 5, the BEV feature of detection is local highlighting, while the segmentation feature shows more activated regions globally. Therefore, when the BEV feature grid size is too small, the BEV semantic segmentation task suffers from aggregating local features and cannot capture global information for the whole scene understanding.

Radiology reports provide detailed descriptions of medical imaging integrated with patients' medical histories, while report writing is traditionally labor-intensive, increasing radiologists' workload and the risk of diagnostic errors.

Radiology reports provide detailed descriptions of medical imaging integrated with patients' medical histories, while report writing is traditionally labor-intensive, increasing radiologists' workload and the risk of diagnostic errors. Recent efforts in automating this process seek to mitigate these issues by enhancing accuracy and clinical efficiency. However, existing automated approaches are based on a single timestamp and often neglect the critical temporal aspect of patients' imaging histories, which is essential for accurate longitudinal analysis. To address this gap, we propose a novel History Enhanced Radiology Report Generation (HERGen) framework that employs a group causal transformer to efficiently integrate longitudinal data across patient visits. Our approach not only allows for comprehensive analysis of varied historical data but also improves the quality of generated reports through an auxiliary contrastive objective that aligns image sequences with their corresponding reports. More importantly, we introduce a curriculum learning-based strategy to adeptly handle the inherent complexity of longitudinal radiology data and thus stabilize the optimization of our framework.

Radiology reports provide detailed descriptions of medical imaging integrated with patients' medical histories, while report writing is traditionally labor-intensive, increasing radiologists' workload and the risk of diagnostic errors. Recent efforts in automating this process seek to mitigate these issues by enhancing accuracy and clinical efficiency. However, existing automated approaches are based on a single timestamp and often neglect the critical temporal aspect of patients' imaging histories, which is essential for accurate longitudinal analysis. To address this gap, we propose a novel History Enhanced Radiology Report Generation (HERGen) framework that employs a group causal transformer to efficiently integrate longitudinal data across patient visits. Our approach not only allows for comprehensive analysis of varied historical data but also improves the quality of generated reports through an auxiliary contrastive objective that aligns image sequences with their corresponding reports. More importantly, we introduce a curriculum learning-based strategy to adeptly handle the inherent complexity of longitudinal radiology data and thus stabilize the optimization of our framework. The extensive evaluations across three datasets demonstrate that our framework surpasses existing methods in generating accurate radiology reports and effectively predicting disease progression from medical images. + +Keywords: Radiology Report Generation $\cdot$ Longitudinal Study $\cdot$ Vision-Language Learning + +# 1 Introduction + +Chest X-rays are a cornerstone in diagnosing thoracic conditions, including pneumonia and lung cancer [19,35]. Given a chest X-ray, radiologists will meticulously examine each anatomical section in the X-ray and document their observations with detailed text descriptions. The generated report is crucial to diagnose diseases (e.g., lung cancer, scoliosis) and assess the position of the treatment devices (e.g., tracheostomy tubes, pacemakers). Particularly, when prior images are available, radiologists commonly compare the clinical findings of the current scan with prior scans to assess the evolution of disease over time, which is essential in regular clinical evaluations. However, the high volume of chest X-rays overwhelms radiologists, exacerbating the impact of the global shortfall in this workforce [8,37]. + +![](images/19e9c9ffee18b938524a60d6cc55548bf7dbc0ade5a1b16ce33e10ce4cad13ef.jpg) +Fig. 1: Overview of our HERGen for radiology report generation: Our model processes longitudinal data for each patient and utilizes the comprehensive historical information within these longitudinal data to generate robust and precise radiology reports. + +Automated chest X-ray report generation has emerged as a key research area, aiming to ease radiologists' workload and improve patient care [43]. Mainstream approaches focus on improving clinical accuracy and completeness of individual reports [9, 10, 27, 42], often overlooking the chronological consistency in longitudinal imaging. Modeling such inherent temporal information in chest X-rays has shown to be crucial for generating precise radiology reports [5, 20, 39, 59]. Some recent studies integrate prior images for temporal representation and enhance report generation [5, 39]. However, they are limited to the use of only one prior image for the current report, failing to capture high-level disease progression evident across a patient's history. This highlights the need for a framework that learns accurate representations from both study-level and patient-level images, thereby producing reports closely aligned with radiologists' analyses. + +In this paper, we propose a novel History Enhanced radiology Report Generation framework (HERGen) to effectively capture the temporal information of longitudinal data for generating comprehensive and temporally coherent radiology reports, as shown in Fig. 1. The key part is a causal transformer model, which treats all visual tokens from the same image as a group and uses a group causal attention mechanism to handle it. Viewing all visual tokens of each patient as a sequence, this mechanism groups visual tokens from the same image, facilitating intra-image interactions of visual tokens and inter-image interactions of tokens only across previous studies. Notably, it treats each patient's X-ray series as a distinct sequence, adeptly handling the variability in the number of longitudinal images per patient. Moreover, we further refine the model's capability to chart disease progression through a cross-modal contrastive learning objective, ensuring the alignment of longitudinal visual representations with their narrative reports. Due to the inherent complexity of longitudinal data, it is non-trivial to optimize the whole framework. We thereby introduce a new curriculum learning- + +based optimization strategy in three progressive steps to enhance and stabilize the learning process of our framework. The model is first trained to generate radiology reports for individual images and then, we employ the auxiliary contrastive alignment module to optimize the latent space. After that, the entire framework is trained with the integration of a temporal aggregation module, enabling it to learn from the patient's historical information. Extensive experimental results on radiology report generation and temporal medical image classification tasks demonstrate the superiority of our framework in generating accurate radiology reports and effectively predicting the disease progression from medical images. The source code is available at https://github.com/fuying-wang/HERGen. + +# 2 Related Work + +Automated Report Generation. Radiology report generation, inspired by image captioning techniques [11, 46, 54, 56], face unique challenges due to the complexity and variability in radiology reports [1, 9, 10, 18, 23, 25, 49, 55]. Initial approaches, primarily based on CNN-RNN [17, 18, 49, 57], have evolved with the adoption of transformer [44]. Recent advancements include memory-driven transformers for enhanced cross-modal interactions [9, 10], alignment of visual features with disease tags [55], and contrastive methods for anomaly detection [25]. Integration of knowledge graphs [23, 57], warm starting strategies [27], and interactive frameworks for region-specific reports [42] have also been explored. However, these methods often treat X-rays and reports as independent entities, overlooking the temporal aspects inherent in various radiology modalities. + +Longitudinal Chest X-ray Representations. Radiology studies, inherently chronological, are crucial for accurate reporting, yet the temporal dimension is often under-addressed in research. [34] indirectly acknowledged the importance of sequential context by proposing a method to reduce language model hallucinations. [5] introduced a self-supervised framework capturing the longitudinal evolution of chest X-ray findings. Similarly, [59] developed a cross-attention-based multi-modal fusion framework utilizing patient record chronology to enhance report pre-filling. [20] employed graph attention networks [45] for an anatomy-aware approach to tracking disease progression in longitudinal CXR data. [39] used Faster R-CNN [36] to project longitudinal studies into a composite representation highlighting anatomical changes over time. However, most of these methods primarily focus on learning representations rather than generating reports. Furthermore, these methods often treat two consecutive image-text pairs, lacking flexibility for varying patient history lengths and are limited in capturing the complex progression of diseases. + +Biomedical Vision-language Pretraining. Radiology reports, paired with chest X-rays, offer rich labels for learning visual representations. Building on the CLIP framework [32], [7, 15, 47, 58] demonstrate the efficacy of self-supervised vision-language pretraining in biomedical imaging tasks. Particularly, [58] use a contrastive objective [29] for modality alignment, [15] focus on local alignment + +for detailed feature learning, and [7] develop CXR-BERT, employing masked language modeling for enhanced image feature learning from radiology language. Furthermore, [5] adapt BioViL [7] for longitudinal analysis in radiology, improving temporal aspects in report generation and classification tasks. Our work further explores the application of vision-language pretraining on longitudinal data, aiming to effectively capture disease progression in patient records. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Problem Formulation + +The overall framework of the proposed method is shown in Fig. 2. We analyze a dataset comprising chest X-rays from $M$ patients, denoted as $\{\mathcal{I}_i\}_{i = 1,2,\dots,M}$ , where $\mathcal{I}_i = \{\mathbf{I}_j^{(i)}\}_{j = 1,2,\dots,N_i}$ represents the set of X-rays for the $i$ -th patient and $N_{i}$ is the number of studies (visits). For each patient $i$ , their X-rays are chronologically ordered based on their associated study dates $\mathcal{T}_i = \{\mathbf{T}_j^{(i)}\}_{j = 1,2,\dots,N_i}$ . The objective of our method is to generate a set of radiology reports $\{\hat{\mathcal{R}}_i\}_{i = 1,2,\dots,M}$ for each patient, aiming to closely approximate the ground truth reports $\{\mathcal{R}_i\}_{i = 1,2,\dots,M}$ . In the following, we use $i$ and $j$ to index patient and study respectively. + +# 3.2 History-enhanced Report Generation + +Extract Representations of Single Images. In our approach, each X-ray image $\mathbf{I}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{C\times W\times H}$ is first encoded into a feature representation $\mathbf{P}_j^{(i)}\in$ $\mathbb{R}^{S\times F}$ with an image encoder. Here, $C$ , $W$ , and $H$ denote the number of channels, width, and height of the image, respectively, while $S$ and $F$ represent the number of visual tokens and the feature dimension per token. Following CvT-212DistilGPT2 [27], we utilize the CvT architecture [52], pretrained on ImageNet-21K, as our image encoder, while our framework can take other encoder backbones. To tailor the dimensions of $S$ and $F$ to our requirements, we introduce an encoder projection layer $E_{proj}$ . This layer comprises a $1\times 1$ convolution layer followed by a linear projection layer, transforming each $\mathbf{P}_j^{(i)}$ into a more compact visual representation $\mathbf{V}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S'\times F'}$ , where $S'$ and $F'$ denote the adjusted number of visual tokens and their new dimensionality, respectively. + +Sequential Date-aware Temporal Embedding. Temporal embeddings are especially critical for our group causal transformer to learn longitudinal information. Standard positional embeddings typically assume equidistant intervals between tokens, an assumption that is not applicable in our context due to the varying time gaps between consecutive chest X-rays. For example, the clinical progression captured in X-rays taken a month apart is significantly different from that in X-rays taken a year apart. To tackle this challenge, we introduce study date-aware positional embeddings, $\mathbf{p}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S^*\times F'}$ for each study. These embeddings are conditioned on the study dates $\mathbf{T}_j^{(i)}$ , offering a more precise representation of the temporal intervals between X-rays. In detail, we first calculate + +![](images/042f2941613973a72f6904fe8592451c86d8107cd4b4dad46c9fd8af1175942c.jpg) +Fig. 2: History Enhanced Radiology Report Generation (HERGen): the framework processes patient-level chest X-rays using the CvT* (CvT combined with the encoder projection layer), which then aggregates temporal information through a group causal transformer. Subsequently, GPT2 serves as the decoder for predicting the radiology report, which was optimized by a cross-entropy (CE) loss. Additionally, an auxiliary contrastive alignment module is employed to enhance the alignment of the latent spaces between image and text modalities, thereby producing more consistent reports. Note that in the group causal transformer block, thick lines represent image-level interactions, while thin lines indicate token-level interactions. + +the relative study date for each X-ray image as $\mathbf{T}_{j}^{\prime (i)} = \mathbf{T}_{j}^{(i)} - \mathbf{T}_{0}^{(i)}$ . Then, we identify the maximum relative study date in the training set and create a learnable embedding vocabulary of the corresponding length. Each temporal embedding is defined as: $\mathbf{p}_j^{(i)} = \mathrm{Embedding}(\mathbf{T}_j^{\prime (i)})\in \mathbb{R}^{1\times F'}$ . The visual token embeddings $\mathbf{V}_j^{(i)}$ are then added with the temporal embedding $\mathbf{p}_j^{(i)}$ to form $\mathbf{Z}_j^{(i)} = \mathbf{V}_j^{(i)} + \mathbf{p}_j^{(i)}$ , where $\mathbf{Z}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S'\times F'}$ . Finally, we concatenate all visual token embeddings for each patient to create a patient-level sequence $\tilde{\mathbf{Z}}_i = \mathrm{Concat}([\{\mathbf{Z}_j^{(i)}\}_{j = 1,2,\dots,N_i}])$ where $\tilde{\mathbf{Z}}_i\in \mathbb{R}^{S^{(i)}\times F'}$ and $S^{(i)} = N_{i}\times S^{\prime}$ , which is then fed into the group causal transformer for temporal aggregation. + +Group Causal Transformer. Our group causal transformer comprises $L$ group causal blocks, designed to aggregate longitudinal information from patient data. In block $l$ , for every visual token (indexed by $p$ ), we first compute the query, key, and value vectors from its preceding block's representation $\mathbf{z}_{(p)}^{(l-1)} \in \mathbb{R}^{F'}$ as: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathbf {q} _ {(p)} ^ {(l, a)} = \mathbf {W} _ {Q} ^ {(l, a)} \mathrm {L N} (\mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {(l - 1)}) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {D _ {h}}, \\ \mathbf {k} _ {(p)} ^ {(l, a)} = \mathbf {W} _ {K} ^ {(l, a)} \mathrm {L N} (\mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {(l - 1)}) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {D _ {h}}, \\ \mathbf {v} _ {(p)} ^ {(l, a)} = \mathbf {W} _ {V} ^ {(l, a)} \mathrm {L N} \left(\mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {(l - 1)}\right) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {D _ {h}}. \tag {1} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +Here, LN denotes LayerNorm and $a = 1,\dots,A$ indexes the $A$ attention heads with the latent dimensionality for each head being $D_{h} = F^{\prime} / A$ . The initial representation $\mathbf{z}^{(0)}$ corresponds to the input sequence $\tilde{\mathbf{Z}}_i$ . $\mathbf{W}_Q$ , $\mathbf{W}_K$ , and $\mathbf{W}_V$ + +![](images/a669bdfc71d29b505788f635c7298770b6077009417143fe3de0393d3aa6041d.jpg) +Fig. 3: Comparison between (a) bidirectional attention, (b) causal attention and (c) our group causal attention. + +![](images/e97ced86abdbab39856e4266d16d9d709bff9c6b453bd0826e3c7730a0599364.jpg) +Fig. 4: Illustration of the proposed curriculum training strategy. + +are learnable matrices. For simplicity, we have omitted the patient index $i$ in our notation. Then, the process for computing dot-product self-attention weights, along with subsequent steps, is defined as follows: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \alpha_ {(p)} ^ {(l, a)} = \mathrm {S M} \big (\frac {\mathbf {q} _ {(p)} ^ {(l , a)}}{D _ {h}} \cdot [ \mathbf {k} _ {(p ^ {\prime})} ^ {(l, a)} ] _ {p ^ {\prime} \in 0, \dots , S ^ {(i)} - 1} \big), \\ \mathbf {s} (p) ^ {(l, a)} = \sum_ {p ^ {\prime}} \mathbf {M} \left(p ^ {\prime}\right) \alpha (p) \left(p ^ {\prime}\right) ^ {(l, a)} \mathbf {v} \left(p ^ {\prime}\right) ^ {(l, a)}, \tag {2} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}^{S^{(i)}}$ . The group causal attention matrix $\mathbf{M}(p')$ , as illustrated in Fig. 3, differs fundamentally from the bidirectional attention used in BERT [12] and the causal attention in GPT [33]. It ensures that each visual token within an image not only interacts with others in the same image but also with tokens from preceding images. + +This design reflects our intention to make the transformer cognizant of the temporal sequence in radiological data, a crucial aspect for accurately capturing disease progression over time. Subsequently, we perform concatenation followed by a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) with residual connections to get the output. This can be mathematically represented as: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {\prime (l)} = \mathbf {W} _ {O} [ \mathbf {s} _ {(p)} ^ {(l, 1)} \dots \mathbf {s} _ {(p)} ^ {(l, A)} ] + \mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {(l - 1)}, \\ \mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {(l)} = \operatorname {M L P} \left(\operatorname {L N} \left(\mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {\prime (l)}\right)\right) + \mathbf {z} _ {(p)} ^ {\prime (l)}, \tag {3} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{W}_O$ is a learnable matrix. Then, the output sequence of the group causal transformer, denoted as $\mathbf{z}^{(L)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S^{(i)}\times F'}$ , is split into a series of representations of studies $\{\mathbf{D}_j^{(i)}\}_{j = 1,\ldots ,N_i}$ and $\mathbf{D}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S'\times F'}$ . + +Report Generation and Auxiliary Contrastive Alignment. Each temporally aggregated visual representation $\mathbf{D}_j^{(i)}$ is input into a text decoding module for generating radiology reports. Note that We chose GPT-2 as the text decoder following [27], which shows DistilGPT2 [38] outperforms other alternatives like ClinicalBERT [2], PubMedBERT [13], and SciBERT [6]. We minimize a cross-entropy loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{CE}}$ to ensure predicted reports are close to ground truth reports. + +To improve the coherence of generated reports, we introduce an auxiliary contrastive alignment module. This module is designed to align the distributions of the visual and textual modalities, thereby enhancing the model's overall performance. Initially, for each visual token embedding $\mathbf{D}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{S'\times F'}$ , we perform a mean pooling operation along the first dimension and it results in a global representation of the entire image, denoted as $\tilde{\mathbf{D}}_j^{(i)}\in \mathbb{R}^{F'}$ . Then, we use a text encoder to encode each report $\mathbf{R}_j^{(i)}$ into a representation $\mathbf{E}_j^{(i)}$ . Subsequently, we concatenate all visual and text embeddings within the same minibatch to form a combined set: $\{\tilde{\mathbf{D}}_s\}_{s = 1,2,\dots,N_B}$ and $\{\mathbf{E}_s\}_{s = 1,2,\dots,N_B}$ , respectively. Note that $N_B$ represents the total number of studies within the mini-batch. The contrastive loss is defined as follows: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {C o n t}} = \sum_ {r = 1} ^ {N _ {B}} \frac {1}{2 N _ {B}} (- \log \frac {\exp \left(\operatorname {s i m} \left(\tilde {\mathbf {D}} _ {r} , \mathbf {E} _ {r}\right) / \tau\right)}{\sum_ {s ^ {\prime} = 1} ^ {N _ {B}} \exp \left(\operatorname {s i m} \left(\tilde {\mathbf {D}} _ {r} , \mathbf {E} _ {s ^ {\prime}}\right) / \tau\right)}) \tag {4} \\ - \log \frac {\exp (\sin (\mathbf {E} _ {r} , \mathbf {D} _ {r}) / \tau)}{\sum_ {s ^ {\prime} = 1} ^ {N _ {B}} \exp (\sin (\mathbf {E} _ {r} , \tilde {\mathbf {D}} _ {s ^ {\prime}}) / \tau)}) \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\tau$ is the temperature hyperparameter. + +Learning Objectives. Finally, our model is optimized by jointly minimizing these two objectives: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {C E}} + \lambda \cdot \mathcal {L} _ {\text {C o n t}}. \tag {5} +$$ + +Here, $\lambda$ is a hyperparameter used to balance these two losses. Based on empirical studies, we set $\lambda$ as 1.0. The ablation results of the hyperparameter $r$ can be found in the Supplementary Material. + +# 3.3 Curriculum Training + +As shown in Fig. 4, we introduce a curriculum learning strategy, unfolding in three stages to progressively enhance our model's performance: + +- Stage 1: Encoder-Decoder Report Generation: Initially, reports are generated using an encoder-decoder architecture trained on individual chest X-ray image-text pairs. This foundational step focuses solely on static data without temporal context. +- Stage 2: Alignment Refinement with Text Encoder: Subsequently, a text encoder is incorporated, utilizing contrastive learning to refine the alignment between the visual and textual data. +- Stage 3: Temporal Information Learning: The final stage expands the model's capability to a longitudinal perspective. Here, we integrate the group causal transformer to process sequences of chest X-rays, thereby incorporating temporal information into the report generation. + +These stages collectively develop a robust and comprehensive model, which is then systematically evaluated to assess its effectiveness in generating accurate and contextually relevant radiology reports. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Experimental Setup + +Dataset and Preprocessing. We evaluate the performance of our model on two clinical tasks: radiology report generation and temporal medical image classification. The used datasets are as follows: + +- MIMIC-CXR: We utilize the MIMIC-CXR dataset [19], which originally comprises 377,110 chest X-ray images and 227,835 reports, to evaluate our model. Aligning with previous work [9,10,27], we adopt the official split of the MIMIC-CXR dataset in our experiment. However, the original dataset includes multiple lateral images, which could introduce inconsistency in longitudinal analyses. Additionally, we observed duplicate images within the same study, bringing noise to patient-level progression analysis. Therefore, we meticulously curated the dataset by removing lateral images and duplicates within studies for each train/validation/test set, resulting in a preprocessed dataset consisting of 145,471 pairs for training, 1,151 for validation, and 2,210 for testing. We then follow [27] to preprocess images and reports. Specifically, we resize all images to $384 \times 384$ while preserving aspect ratios. Report preprocessing involved truncating to 60 words, converting to lowercase, removing special characters, and replacing infrequent terms with placeholders. Crucially, we organized the image-report pairs chronologically based on the "StudyDate" metadata, preserving temporal integrity for analyzing each patient's radiological history. Further details on dataset curation and preprocessing are available in the Supplementary Material. Note that we re-run the publicly released code of compared methods on our curated MIMIC-CXR dataset to ensure a fair comparison. + +- Longitudinal MIMIC-CXR: We further devise the Longitudinal MIMIC-CXR dataset, derived from the preprocessed MIMIC-CXR-JPG dataset, to assess our model's capability in generating temporally coherent reports, following [59]. This subset includes only patients with at least two consecutive visits. It is worth noting that the training, validation, and test splits of the Longitudinal-MIMIC dataset correspond to the official divisions of the MIMIC-CXR dataset. +- MS-CXR-T: We also assess our model's capacity for capturing temporal information using the MS-CXR-T dataset [4]. This dataset consists of 1326 multi-image frontal chest X-rays, each annotated with one of five findings. For each finding, there are three possible states reflecting disease progression: "Improving," "Stable," and "Worsening". + +Radiology Report Generation. We evaluate the performance of our method in radiology report generation on both the MIMIC-CXR dataset and the Longitudinal MIMIC-CXR dataset. We compare HERGen with 7 state-of-the-art (SOTA) radiology report generation models, including $\mathcal{M}^2$ Transformer [11], R2Gen [10], R2GenCMN [9], $\mathcal{M}^2$ TR.PROGRESSIVE [28], XProNet [48], CvT-212DistilGPT2 [27] and DCL [21]. To ensure a fair comparison, we rerun the + +publicly released code of these methods on our curated MIMIC-CXR dataset. Note that 5 SOTA models (PPKER [23], ContrastiveAttention [25], AlignTransformer [55], KIUT [16], and METransformer [50]) lack publicly available source code, thus results are cited from their original papers for reference. However, we note that these can't directly compared to our results due to our additional dataset preprocessing. Additionally, the results in the RGRG [42] paper, employing the Chest ImaGenome [53] split instead of the official MIMIC-CXR split, are also for reference only but not directly comparable. On the Longitudinal MIMIC-CXR dataset, we compare our model with both single-image based baselines, i.e., R2Gen [10], R2CMN [9], CvT-212DistilGPT2 [27], etc. and longitudinal image-based baseline, i.e., Prefilling [59]. + +Temporal Image Classification. The temporal image classification task is evaluated on the MS-CXR-T dataset [4]. This evaluation serves as an additional task to assess how well our model can understand and process disease progression in medical images. We compare our approach with both temporal image-based vision language pretraining methods (e.g., BioViL-T) and single image pretraining methods (e.g., BioViL). More information about this experiment is available in the Supplementary Material. + +Evaluation Metrics. In line with previous studies [10,27,31,42], we employed a combination of Natural Language Generation (NLG) and Clinical Efficiency (CE) metrics to evaluate our report generation performance. For NLG, we used established metrics including BLEU-n [30], which measures n-gram overlap, ME-TEOR [3], that accounts for recall through an $F_{\beta}$ score, ROUGE-L [22], based on the longest common subsequence. Recognizing that NLG metrics may not fully reflect clinical accuracy, we further integrated CE metrics following previous work [9,10,16,50]. Specifically, we apply CheXbert [40] to label the generated reports into 14 categories (related to thoracic diseases and support devices), and then compute precision, recall, and F1 scores against ground truths. The macro-averaged results over 14 classes are reported, given the susceptibility of micro-averaged metrics to minor class imbalances [41]. As for the temporal image classification, we predict one of "improving", "stable", and "worsening" for each one of the 5 findings: Consolidation, Pleural Effusion, Pneumonia, Pneumothorax and Edema. Following BioViL-T [5], we use macro-accuracy across the 5 classes to evaluate the performance. + +# 4.2 Implementation Details + +We set the minibatch size to 16 for single image-text pair training and to 4 for temporal training. Our model training was limited to a maximum of 5 studies per patient to accommodate resource limitations. We employed the AdamW [24] optimizer for model optimization. The learning rate was adjusted according to the training stage, with detailed strategies provided in the Supplementary Materials. The training was early stopped if the validation BLEU-4 score did not improve over 10 consecutive epochs. All experiments were conducted using two Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 GPUs. + +Table 1: Natural Language Generation (NLG) and Clinical Efficacy (CE) metrics on MIMIC-CXR. The Best and second-best results of each metric are shown in bold and underline, respectively. $\dagger$ indicates the results are cited from their original papers. Since our study involves necessary data cleaning for longitudinal analysis, these results are not strictly comparable to ours. Results without $\dagger$ were obtained by re-running publicly available code on the same preprocessed dataset used in our study. + +

Text highlighted in gray indicates words or their synonyms found in both the predicted and ground truth reports. Purple highlights denote similar matches in the baseline-generated (CvT-212DistilGPT2) reports and ground truth, while red highlights show similar matches in our model's reports and ground truth. From top to bottom, the chest X-rays are chronologically ordered. Here $T$ denotes the study date of the first study. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we present a novel framework to enhance radiology report generation by utilizing the varying-size patient histories. By integrating a novel group casual transformer, our model effectively aggregates temporal information of longitudinal data. Besides, our framework optimize an auxiliary contrastive alignment module to further align image and textual data. Moreover, a curriculum learning strategy is employed to sequentially optimize these modules, thereby progressively improving model performance. Our extensive experiments demonstrate the model's capability to generate clinically precise reports and extract meaningful insights from historical data. + +Limitations and Future Work. One potential limitation of our method is that the model's alignment operates within the embedding space without accounting for anatomical consistencies in longitudinal studies. Additionally, we plan to expand HERGen into a more comprehensive representation learning model, thereby broadening its utility across varied downstream tasks. + +# Acknowledgement + +This work was partially supported by the Research Grants Council of Hong Kong (27206123 and T45-401/22-N), the Hong Kong Innovation and Technology Fund (ITS/273/22), and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 62201483). + +# References + +1.

Radiology reports provide detailed descriptions of medical imaging integrated with patients' medical histories, while report writing is traditionally labor-intensive, increasing radiologists' workload and the risk of diagnostic errors. Recent efforts in automating this process seek to mitigate these issues by enhancing accuracy and clinical efficiency. However, existing automated approaches are based on a single timestamp and often neglect the critical temporal aspect of patients' imaging histories, which is essential for accurate longitudinal analysis. To address this gap, we propose a novel History Enhanced Radiology Report Generation (HERGen) framework that employs a group causal transformer to efficiently integrate longitudinal data across patient visits. Our approach not only allows for comprehensive analysis of varied historical data but also improves the quality of generated reports through an auxiliary contrastive objective that aligns image sequences with their corresponding reports. More importantly, we introduce a curriculum learning-based strategy to adeptly handle the inherent complexity of longitudinal radiology data and thus stabilize the optimization of our framework. The extensive evaluations across three datasets demonstrate that our framework surpasses existing methods in generating accurate radiology reports and effectively predicting disease progression from medical images." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Radiology Report Generation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Longitudinal Study " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 468, + 452, + 491 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Vision-Language Learning" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 510, + 230, + 522 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 510, + 230, + 522 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 510, + 230, + 522 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 533, + 481, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 533, + 481, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 533, + 481, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Chest X-rays are a cornerstone in diagnosing thoracic conditions, including pneumonia and lung cancer [19,35].

Particularly, when prior images are available, radiologists commonly compare the clinical findings of the current scan with prior scans to assess the evolution of disease over time, which is essential in regular clinical evaluations.

Modeling such inherent temporal information in chest X-rays has shown to be crucial for generating precise radiology reports [5, 20, 39, 59]. Some recent studies integrate prior images for temporal representation and enhance report generation [5, 39]. However, they are limited to the use of only one prior image for the current report, failing to capture high-level disease progression evident across a patient's history. This highlights the need for a framework that learns accurate representations from both study-level and patient-level images, thereby producing reports closely aligned with radiologists' analyses." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In this paper, we propose a novel History Enhanced radiology Report Generation framework (HERGen) to effectively capture the temporal information of longitudinal data for generating comprehensive and temporally coherent radiology reports, as shown in Fig. 1. The key part is a causal transformer model, which treats all visual tokens from the same image as a group and uses a group causal attention mechanism to handle it. Viewing all visual tokens of each patient as a sequence, this mechanism groups visual tokens from the same image, facilitating intra-image interactions of visual tokens and inter-image interactions of tokens only across previous studies. Notably, it treats each patient's X-ray series as a distinct sequence, adeptly handling the variability in the number of longitudinal images per patient.

However, the generalization ability of models suffers in dynamic scenarios due to the distribution shift between test and training data. To promote robustness and adaptability across diverse scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has recently been introduced. Nevertheless, most existing TTA methods are developed for images, and limited approaches applicable to point clouds ignore the inherent hierarchical geometric structures in point cloud streams, i.e., local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) structures. In this paper, we delve into TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation and propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner. Technically, we first construct a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation. Next, we build prototypes from the global geometry perspective for pseudo-label fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization module to mitigate negative transfer. Extensive experiments on four datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our HGL.

Specifically, DG aims to learn a model using data from multiple diverse source domains that can generalize well to distribution-shifted target domains. DA utilizes the transductive learning manner to realize knowledge transfer from labeled source domains to unlabeled target domains. Despite showing encouraging results, their real-world applications are still restricted. In particular, DG primarily operates during the training phase and cannot fully utilize test data from application scenarios. DA typically necessitates access to both labeled source data and test data concurrently, constituting offline learning and can be hindered by privacy concerns or legal constraints. In many practical scenarios, DNNs require continual and adaptive updating in an online fashion to remain effective.

The challenge stems from the intrinsic property of 3D point cloud data, characterized by unordered geometric structures, and the distribution shift is primarily attributed to disparities in the geometric structural information between the source and target domains. More recently, GIPSO [33], designed specifically for TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation (TTA-3DSeg), leverages geometric and temporal information to mitigate the domain shift.

However, the generalization ability of models suffers in dynamic scenarios due to the distribution shift between test and training data. To promote robustness and adaptability across diverse scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has recently been introduced. Nevertheless, most existing TTA methods are developed for images, and limited approaches applicable to point clouds ignore the inherent hierarchical geometric structures in point cloud streams, i.e., local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) structures. In this paper, we delve into TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation and propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner. Technically, we first construct a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation. Next, we build prototypes from the global geometry perspective for pseudo-label fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization module to mitigate negative transfer. Extensive experiments on four datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our HGL. Remarkably, on the SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI task, HGL achieves an overall mIoU of \\(46.91\\%\\), improving GIPSO by \\(3.0\\%\\) and significantly reducing the required adaptation time by \\(80\\%\\).

Specifically, DG aims to learn a model using data from multiple diverse source domains that can generalize well to distribution-shifted target domains. DA utilizes the transductive learning manner to realize knowledge transfer from labeled source domains to unlabeled target domains. Despite showing encouraging results, their real-world applications are still restricted. In particular, DG primarily operates during the training phase and cannot fully utilize test data from application scenarios. DA typically necessitates access to both labeled source data and test data concurrently, constituting offline learning and can be hindered by privacy concerns or legal constraints. In many practical scenarios, DNNs require continual and adaptive updating in an online fashion to remain effective. Hence, we focus on an extreme case in domain adaptation: test-time adaptation (TTA), in which model adaptation is performed by learning from the unlabeled test (target) data during inference time [43]." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.443, + 0.788, + 0.671 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Currently, most TTA approaches are proposed for 2D image data.

The challenge stems from the intrinsic property of 3D point cloud data, characterized by unordered geometric structures, and the distribution shift is primarily attributed to disparities in the geometric structural information between the source and target domains. More recently, GIPSO [33], designed specifically for TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation (TTA-3DSeg), leverages geometric and temporal information to mitigate the domain shift. Nevertheless, GIPSO simply employs geometric features for pseudo-label propagation with a frozen source model and lacks a thorough exploration of hierarchical geometry information, which prevents the pseudo-labels from benefiting by increasing target data. Furthermore, GIPSO leverages an additional model to extract geometric information, significantly impacting efficiency." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.674, + 0.788, + 0.842 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "In this work, we target TTA-3DSeg from the viewpoint of parsing continuous unstructured point cloud streams into local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) hierarchical structures for accurate and robust self-supervised learning.

Compared to existing approaches lacking thorough exploration of geometry information, HGL is appealing by the geometry hierarchical structure from local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) for accurate and robust self-supervised learning in TTA-3DSeg.

However, the generalization ability of models suffers in dynamic scenarios due to the distribution shift between test and training data. To promote robustness and adaptability across diverse scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has recently been introduced. Nevertheless, most existing TTA methods are developed for images, and limited approaches applicable to point clouds ignore the inherent hierarchical geometric structures in point cloud streams, i.e., local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) structures. In this paper, we delve into TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation and propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner. Technically, we first construct a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation. Next, we build prototypes from the global geometry perspective for pseudo-label fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization module to mitigate negative transfer. Extensive experiments on four datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our HGL. Remarkably, on the SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI task, HGL achieves an overall mIoU of $46.91\%$ , improving GIPSO by $3.0\%$ and significantly reducing the required adaptation time by $80\%$ . The code is available at https://github.com/tpzou/HGL. + +Keywords: Online domain adaptation $\cdot$ point cloud segmentation $\cdot$ hierarchical framework $\cdot$ geometric learning + +# 1 Introduction + +3D point cloud segmentation is essential for many real-world applications, such as medical robotics [1,23], geo-surveying [25] and autonomous driving [6,16,45]. Along with the rapid development of deep neural networks (DNNs) [8,15,27], it has received significant interest and achieved impressive performance in the past + +decade. However, this success hinges on the prerequisite that both the training and test data originate from the same distribution. When deploying models to point clouds captured from different sensor configurations or dissimilar scene distributions, inevitable performance degeneration commonly occurs [46, 48]. + +To address this challenge, several appealing solutions have been developed, including domain generalization (DG) [18, 29, 30, 35] and domain adaptation (DA) [20, 28, 46, 48, 51]. Specifically, DG aims to learn a model using data from multiple diverse source domains that can generalize well to distribution-shifted target domains. DA utilizes the transductive learning manner to realize knowledge transfer from labeled source domains to unlabeled target domains. Despite showing encouraging results, their real-world applications are still restricted. In particular, DG primarily operates during the training phase and cannot fully utilize test data from application scenarios. DA typically necessitates access to both labeled source data and test data concurrently, constituting offline learning and can be hindered by privacy concerns or legal constraints. In many practical scenarios, DNNs require continual and adaptive updating in an online fashion to remain effective. Hence, we focus on an extreme case in domain adaptation: test-time adaptation (TTA), in which model adaptation is performed by learning from the unlabeled test (target) data during inference time [43]. + +Currently, most TTA approaches are proposed for 2D image data. The main techniques include batch normalization calibration [24], entropy minimization [26, 43], pseudo-labeling [4, 10], etc. However, the direct application of these techniques, originally devised for 2D images, onto 3D point cloud data is not practical and yields negligible results [38]. The challenge stems from the intrinsic property of 3D point cloud data, characterized by unordered geometric structures, and the distribution shift is primarily attributed to disparities in the geometric structural information between the source and target domains. More recently, GIPSO [33], designed specifically for TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation (TTA-3DSeg), leverages geometric and temporal information to mitigate the domain shift. Nevertheless, GIPSO simply employs geometric features for pseudo-label propagation with a frozen source model and lacks a thorough exploration of hierarchical geometry information, which prevents the pseudo-labels from benefiting by increasing target data. Furthermore, GIPSO leverages an additional model to extract geometric information, significantly impacting efficiency. + +In this work, we target TTA-3DSeg from the viewpoint of parsing continuous unstructured point cloud streams into local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) hierarchical structures for accurate and robust self-supervised learning. The motivation is threefold: at the point level, each individual point exhibits semantic attributes highly correlated with its neighboring points; at the object level, despite distribution shifts, objects of the same category should manifest similar feature embeddings; and at the frame level, the embedding features of geometrically corresponding points from different frames should demonstrate similarity. To materialize our idea, we propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner. + +Technically, we first generate pseudo-labels from the local point level by employing K-NN information aggregation. Then, we build prototypes from the global object level for pseudo-label fine-tuning with increasing target data. Thereafter, at the frame level, we introduce temporal geometry consistency regularisation to mitigate negative transfer. We validate the superiority of our HGL via extensive experiments on four benchmarks including various distribution-shift scenarios, e.g., synthetic-to-real, real-to-real, continual learning, and adverse weather. Empirical results show that HGL yields new state-of-the-art performance. It is important to note that HGL is a general framework, the specific implementations within each module are not firmly fixed and can be updated to incorporate advancements in the field. This adaptability is further corroborated by preliminary results presented in Table 7. + +Our contributions can be summarized as follows: + +- We argue that parsing continuous point cloud streams into point-, object-, and frame-level contributes significantly to the exploration and utilization of geometric information within the unstructured point cloud. +- We propose a systematic and expandable Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework, which comprises three components: a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation, a global geometry fine-tuning module for pseudo-label fine-tuning, and a temporal geometry regularization module for consistency regularization. +- The incorporation of three-level geometry learning enables HGL to achieve high adaptability and efficiency. Extensive experiments on synthetic-to-real, real-to-real, continual learning, and adverse weather support the superiority. Compared to GIPSO [33], HGL achieves $3.0\%$ improvement in mIoU and $80\%$ reduction in adaptation time on SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI task. + +# 2 Related Work + +Domain Generalization for Point Cloud Segmentation: Domain generalization (DG) aims to generalize the model to distribution-shifted target domains by learning domain-invariant features at the training stage. For point cloud segmentation, [18] augments the source domain to simulate the unseen target domains by randomly subsampling the LiDAR scans. 3DLabelProp [35] relies on exploiting the geometry and sequence of LiDAR data to improve its generalization performance by partially accumulated point clouds. LiDOG [34] introduces an additional BEV auxiliary task to learn the robust features. Although DG can generalize to multiple domains, its inability to leverage data from application scenarios results in sub-optimal performance. + +Domain Adaptation for Point Cloud Segmentation: Domain adaptation (DA) aims to decrease the performance gap of the model between the labeled source domain and the unlabeled target domain.

HGL is composed of a local geometry learning (LGL) module, a global geometry fine-tuning (GGF) module, and a temporal geometry regularization module.

LiDAR-UDA [36] introduces pseudo-label enhancement techniques including LiDAR beam subsampling and cross-frame ensembling for self-supervised training. Despite the success, concurrent access to source and target data still hinders real-world applications. + +Test-time Adaptation: To mitigate the limitations of DG and DA, test-time adaptation (TTA) has been proposed, which strives to adapt models in an online learning manner during inference. TTA has been widely studied in the image domain including recognition [4,26,31,32,43], detection [19,40,41], and segmentation [44,50]. Compared to the well-established image-specific TTA, point-specific TTA focuses primarily on registration [13] and upsampling [14], while TTA-3DSeg is still an open research problem. Recently, GIPSO [33] utilizes geometric features for pseudo-label propagation and constrains the temporal consistency between consecutive frames. Nonetheless, GIPSO lacks a thorough exploration of hierarchical geometry and requires additional networks to extract geometric information. In this paper, we introduce a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework for effective and efficient TTA-3DSeg. + +# 3 Methodology + +# 3.1 Definitions + +In this paper, we focus on TTA-3DSeg, allowing a pre-trained model $F_{S}$ to be updated online to a new target domain $T$ without access to the source domain $S$ . Formally, the data of the source domain are defined as $\mathcal{D}_s = \{(X_S^i,Y_S^i)\}_{i = 1}^{N_S}$ + +where $X_{S}^{i}$ is labeled point cloud, $Y_{S}^{i}$ is corresponding segmentation label of $X_{S}^{i}$ and $N_{S}$ is the number of labeled point clouds. $F_{T}$ is the target model adapted from the pre-trained model $F_{S}$ . The data of the target domain are denoted as $\mathcal{D}_t = \{(X_T^t,Y_T^t)\}_{t = 1}^{N_T}$ where $X_{T}^{i}$ represents an unlabeled point cloud of the stream at time $t$ and $Y_{T}^{t}$ is unknown label. The source and target classes are coincident. + +# 3.2 Our Approach + +To adapt source model $F_{S}$ to target model $F_{T}$ , we propose a Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework for accurate and robust self-supervised learning from local (point-level), global (object-level) and temporal (frame-level) hierarchical structures. As shown in Fig. 1, our HGL includes three complementary components, the local geometry learning module, the global geometry fine-tuning module, and the temporal geometry regularization module. + +Technically, given the current point cloud $X_{T}^{t}$ , we first input it into the local geometry learning module to generate local geometric pseudo-labels and select reliable samples. The local geometry learning module is based on the local K-NN clustering strategy, which includes aggregating predictions for each point from its nearest neighbors and calculating confidence by both geometric purity and prediction certainty. The geometric purity represents the purity score of surrounding points, obtained by calculating anti-entropy based on the predictions of neighboring points. Besides, the prediction certainty is the anti-entropy of each point prediction. Based on selected local geometric pseudo-labels, we further introduce a global geometry fine-tuning module, in which we build prototypes for each class object on the target model and employ them as a new classifier to obtain global geometric pseudo-labels. By incorporating local and global geometric pseudo-labels, we could obtain robust and generalized local-global geometric pseudo-labels. Lastly, we introduce a temporal geometry regularization module to constrain the consistency of the embedding feature of geometrically corresponding points between the current point cloud $X_{T}^{t}$ and the previous $X_{T}^{t - w}$ . In contrast to forcing regularization at all points [33], we align low-confidence to high-confidence features to avoid degradation of high-confidence features. + +# 3.3 Local Geometry Learning + +As a promising technique in unsupervised learning, pseudo-labeling has been widely employed. Existing methods [33, 38, 42] typically generate pseudo-labels directly based on single-point prediction. Despite reasonable effectiveness, these methods neglect the local geometry structure, leading to sub-optimal results. To tackle this, as shown in Fig. 1 a), we propose the Local Geometric Learning (LGL) module to fully leverage local point-level information. We first aggregate the predictions from spatial neighbors to generate more accurate pseudo-labels. Then, we introduce geometric purity and prediction certainty confidence to select reliable local geometric pseudo-labels. The local geometric learning design stems from an intuitive observation that spatially adjacent points often contain the same semantics due to the inherent geometric structure in point clouds. + +Neighboring aggregation. Given a point cloud $X_{T}^{t}$ , we first pass it through the frozen source model $F_{S}$ , and obtain the softmax output, i.e., prediction $P_{T}^{t} \in R^{N \times C}$ . Then, for each point $x_{i}^{t}$ in $X_{T}^{t}$ , we leverage K-NN to locate its geometric neighbors, and subsequently obtain aggregated prediction $\hat{p}_{i}$ by weighted-summing the neighbors' prediction with respect to the distance. Specifically, + +$$ +\hat {p} _ {i} ^ {t} = \frac {1}{\sum_ {j \in \mathcal {N} _ {i}} w _ {j} ^ {t}} \sum_ {j \in \mathcal {N} _ {i}} w _ {j} ^ {t} p _ {j} ^ {t} \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +w _ {j} ^ {t} = e ^ {- \mathrm {d i s} (x _ {i} ^ {t}, x _ {j} ^ {t})} +$$ + +where $w_{j}^{t}$ represents the weight and $\mathrm{dis}(, )$ denotes the Euclidean distance. It is worth noting that $\mathcal{N}_i$ is the $K + 1$ nearest neighbors of $x_{i}^{t}$ , as we include the point itself as one of the neighbors. This ensures that self-prediction is not overlooked when incorporating with predictions from surrounding points. The local geometric pseudo-labels $\hat{y}_{i}^{t,local}$ are produced as + +$$ +\hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t, l o c a l} = \mathbf {1} _ {c} \left(\underset {c} {\arg \max } \left\{\hat {p} _ {i, c} ^ {t} \right\} _ {c \in C}\right) \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{1}_c(.)$ denotes the one-hot transformation. + +Prediction certainty. Calculating the confidence of point predictions and using this information for reliable pseudo-label selection is crucial to self-supervised learning. To achieve this, we measure the prediction certainty $\mathcal{C}_i^t$ by employing the normalized Shannon Entropy [37] as: + +$$ +\mathcal {C} _ {i} ^ {t} = 1 - \frac {1}{\log C} \sum_ {c = 1} ^ {C} \hat {p} _ {i, c} ^ {t} \log \hat {p} _ {i, c} ^ {t} \tag {3} +$$ + +where $C$ is the class number, and $\hat{p}_{i,c}^{t}$ denotes the soft-max probability of point $x_{i}$ belonging to the $c$ -th class. + +Geometric purity. In addition to measuring certainty solely based on predictions, we further introduce a geometric purity metric to locate reliable local regions by measuring the consistency of predictions in local regions. Specifically, given the aggregation prediction $\hat{y}_i^{t,local}$ and neighbors $\mathcal{N}_i$ , we consider it as a local geometric region and calculate geometric purity based on the point cloud class distribution within the region. Formally, we normalize the $\hat{y}_j^{t,local}$ within the local geometric region to obtain probability $\mathcal{P}^t$ , and then calculate geometric purity $\mathcal{A}$ with reference to normalized Shannon Entropy, which is formulated as: + +$$ +\mathcal {P} _ {i} ^ {t} = \frac {1}{\mathcal {N} _ {i}} \sum_ {j \in \mathcal {N} _ {i}} (\hat {y} _ {j} ^ {t, l o c a l}) +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {A} _ {i} ^ {t} = 1 - \frac {1}{\log C} \sum_ {c = 1} ^ {C} \mathcal {P} _ {i, c} ^ {t} \log \mathcal {P} _ {i, c} ^ {t} \tag {4} +$$ + +Accordingly, we obtain the final function of confidence score as $\mathcal{S} = \mathcal{C}\cdot \mathcal{A}$ . Then, we group $\mathcal{S}$ scores per class and determine $a$ as the $\lambda$ -th percentile of $\mathcal{S}$ + +for class $c$ . Consequently, at time $t$ and for class $c$ , we exclusively choose local geometric pseudo-labels with confidence scores higher than $a$ , utilizing them as selected local geometric pseudo-labels. Note that LGL is based on the frozen source model, rather than the EMA-based update model. The reason behind this is that despite generally better performance in downstream tasks, EMA may still put the model at risk of catastrophic forgetting and representational collapse by pushing the model far away from the pre-trained one [39]. Relevant experiments can be found in the supplementary materials. + +# 3.4 Global Geometry Fine-tuning + +Although the pseudo-labels have been enhanced with local geometry through LGL, there are some limitations. Firstly, the local geometric pseudo-labels are obtained from the source model only. Therefore, the generated pseudo-labels are still noisy due to domain shift and cannot benefit from the continuously increasing target domain data. Secondly, the selected local geometric pseudo-labels are chosen by $\lambda$ . It is challenging to ensure a good balance between accuracy and generalization in the selected samples. To address these limitations and inspired by [49], we propose the global geometry fine-tuning (GGF) module as shown in Fig. 1 b), which fine-tunes local geometric pseudo-labels by calculating the global affinity between the global target prototypes and the feature of each point. + +Specifically, to obtain global object information, we first build a set of prototypes for each class on the learnable target model by using selected local geometric pseudo-labels. Then, we obtain the global pseudo-labels by calculating the global affinity and retrieving the nearest prototype for each point. We calculate the centroid of all selected points embedding feature in the class $c$ as the prototype $\rho_c$ , which can be formulated as: $\rho_c^t = \frac{1}{\mathcal{N}_c^t} \sum_i \mathcal{N}_c^t z_i^t$ , where $\mathcal{N}_c^t$ is the total number of points of current class $c$ in selected local geometric pseudo-labels and $z_i^t$ is the embedding feature of the point in the target model. Different from local geometric pseudo-labels obtained from the frozen source model, we update the prototype along the sequential iterations using EMA as follows: $\hat{\rho}_c^t = \alpha \hat{\rho}_c^{t-1} + (1 - \alpha) \rho_c^t$ where $\hat{\rho}_c^0 = \rho_c^0$ , $\hat{\rho}_c^t$ and $\hat{\rho}_c^{t-1}$ mean the current $t$ -th prototype and last $(t-1)$ -th prototype in iterations, and $\alpha$ is a hyper-parameter that controls the updating speed. Given the prototype $\hat{\rho}_c^t$ and point embedding feature $z_i^t$ , the global geometric pseudo-label is attained by: + +$$ +\hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t, \text {g l o b a l}} = \mathbf {1} _ {c} \left(\underset {c} {\arg \max } \left\{\operatorname {s i m} \left(z _ {i} ^ {t}, \hat {\rho} _ {c} ^ {t}\right) \right\} _ {c \in C}\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mathrm{sim}(a,b)$ measures the similarity between $a$ and $b$ . We apply the cosine similarity function by default. With the global geometric pseudo-labels, we propose a straightforward strategy to fine-tune the local geometric pseudo-labels to obtain more reliable local-global pseudo-labels, i.e., retaining only the pseudolabels in the local that are consistent with the global: + +$$ +\hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t} = \hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t, l o c a l}, \text {s . t .} \hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t, g l o b a l} = \hat {y} _ {i} ^ {t, l o c a l} \tag {6} +$$ + +It is worth noting that to ensure the generalization, we operate on all instances of local geometric pseudo-labels here, rather than just the selected subset. Through the optimization with global geometric pseudo-labels, we introduce continuously optimized temporal information while ensuring the non-collapse of pseudo-labels. Moreover, we achieve a balance between accuracy and generalization through a local-global pseudo-label filtering process. + +# 3.5 Temporal Geometry Regularization + +Unlike TTA in image recognition [43], another significant characteristic of TTA-3DSeg is the temporal geometry consistency. Considering the temporal geometric consistency in local-global pseudo-labeling-based self-supervised learning is effective in smoothing the prediction and preventing negative transfer. + +Follow [5, 33], we begin by computing the geometry matching point pairs between $X_{T}^{t - w}$ and $X_{T}^{t}$ by using the rigid transformation $T^{t - w\rightarrow t}$ . Subsequently, as shown in Fig. 1 c), we add an encoder network $h(\cdot)$ and a predictor head $f(\cdot)$ to project point cloud pairs into a representation space to obtain corresponding features $q,z$ and minimize the negative cosine similarity between them. + +$$ +\mathcal {D} _ {t \rightarrow t - w} \left(q ^ {t}, z ^ {t - w}\right) = - \frac {q ^ {t}}{\| q ^ {t} \| _ {2}} \cdot \frac {z ^ {t - w}}{\| z ^ {t - w} \| _ {2}} \tag {7} +$$ + +Different from [5, 33], we argue that due to the typically higher accuracy of high-confidence predictions, it is reasonable to further demand the alignment of low-confidence features with their high-confidence counterparts, which effectively prevents the corrupting of high-confidence features by low-confidence ones. Thus, we make modification to Eq. 7 by introducing the geometry confidence score $S$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {D} _ {t \rightarrow t - w} ^ {\prime} \left(q ^ {t}, z ^ {t - w}\right) = - \mathcal {S} ^ {t - w} \frac {q ^ {t}}{\| q ^ {t} \| _ {2}} \cdot \frac {z ^ {t - w}}{\| z ^ {t - w} \| _ {2}} \tag {8} +$$ + +The final temporal consistency loss is defined as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {r e g} = \frac {1}{2} \mathcal {D} _ {t \rightarrow t - w} ^ {\prime} \left(q ^ {t}, z ^ {t - w}\right) + \frac {1}{2} \mathcal {D} _ {t - w \rightarrow t} ^ {\prime} \left(q ^ {t - w}, z ^ {t}\right) \tag {9} +$$ + +Please refer to supplementary materials for more details. + +# 3.6 Online model update + +In point clouds, class imbalances are typically pronounced. Furthermore, our local-global pseudo-label generation process may still introduce some erroneous low-confidence pseudo-labels. To this end, we employ the soft Dice loss $\mathcal{L}_{dice}$ [17], using smooth labels [22] and the pseudo-labels selected through Eq.6 as supervision, where the smoothing parameter is controlled by the confidence score $S$ . More detailed descriptions can be found in appendix. The overall objective is $\mathcal{L}_{final} = \mathcal{L}_{dice} + \mathcal{L}_{reg}$ , where $\mathcal{L}_{reg}$ is temporal consistency loss defined in Eq.9. + +Table 1: mIoU improvement (%) comparison in SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI test-time adaptation. * denotes being re-purposed for test-time adaptation. + +

SynLiDAR [47] contains 98,396 frames of point clouds synthesized by the Unreal Engine 4 platform, which can be used to simulate SemantiKITTI. Synth4D [33] contains 20K LiDAR point clouds synthesized by the CARLA simulator [9], which can be used for simulating SemantiKITTI and nuScenes. SemanticKITTI [2] is a large-scale real-world dataset for LiDAR point-cloud segmentation with 21 sequences and 43,442 densely annotated scans at $10\mathrm{Hz}$ . We follow the official sequence split and use 00-07, 09-10 scenes as source domain data (19,130 frames) and scene 08 as target domain data (4,071 frames). nuScenes [3] contains 40K LiDAR frames annotated with per-point semantic labels from 1K sequences at $2\mathrm{Hz}$ , each with approximately 40 scans in each sequence. We employ 700 sequences as source domain data (28,130 frames) and 150 sequences as target domain data (6,019 frames). Due to the different annotations across datasets, we remapped semantic categories into seven standardized classes to ensure consistent category definitions.

The results on SemanticKITTI to nuScenes and nuScenes to SemanticKITTI are summarized in Table 4.

+ +results around the selected parameter $K = 10$ are stable, and much better than the source model. In Fig. 2 right, we present the mIoU for $\lambda$ . $\lambda = 0$ indicates no filtering of local geometric pseudo labels. For all benchmarks, we pre-define $\lambda = 70$ to separate "reliable" and "unreliable" local geometric pseudo-label. With smaller step sizes, we may be able to find better hyperparameters. The results show that mIoU is relatively stable around our selection. + +Local Geometry Learning (LGL): To assess the effectiveness of the proposed Local Geometry Learning (LGL), we remove the neighboring aggregation and solely employ the entropy of single-point as the confidence to select pseudo-labels. In Table 6, experiment VI shows that the model's performance improvement is limited. Furthermore, we present the visualization of the pseudo-label of each component of LGL. As shown in Fig.3, although the neighboring aggregation and prediction certainty achieve impressive results with the introduction of local geometric information, it still has problems in some details. Geometric purity complements prediction certainty by enhancing the spatial proximity property, resulting in robust pseudo-labels. + +Global Geometry Fine-tuning (GGF): We ablate Global Geometry Finetuning (GGF) in Table 6 experiment II and III, V and VIII. Results show that the addition of GGF resulted in a slight increase in run time, but a significant performance improvement. V and VIII show that GGF successfully introduces a progressively increasing target information and further improves performance by 4.5 points. Note that the low performance in VIII is due to the indiscriminate use of all local geometric pseudo-labels as supervisory. + +![](images/7da84bba3c67bc4b28ed1c26ed1a947ffd07308bbe79624b842c505b7b970a4c.jpg) +Fig. 2: Hyper-parameter sensitivity anal- Fig. 3: Visualization of selected pseudosysis on SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI. label of LGL. + +![](images/2f64e7b00a626486cee14b0af5bbab5c5aaf466b61310c31ae59077a1cc6cd8d.jpg) + +![](images/e91e9b43f173e39bdd0b24882c8f2487494b772406eaf18c694878f63d8b6e52.jpg) + +Temporal Geometry Regularization (TGR): We show the effect of Temporal Geometry Regularization (TGR) in Table 6. The comparisons between experiments I and II, V and VII demonstrate that the proposed TGR is very crucial due to the sensitivity of the TTA, which makes the whole optimization process stable and efficient. + +Confidence Weight (CW): In Table 6, we compare the performance with and without the confidence weight in experiments V and IX, which show the contribution of the confidence weight in reducing negative transfer. + +Fine-tuning on All Local Geometric Pseudo-label (ALG): The fine-tuning on all local geometric pseudo-labels achieved a balance between the precision and generalization of the pseudo-labels. To illustrate this, in Table 6, we compare the model with only fine-tuning on selected geometric pseudo-labels(IV and V). It shows that simply using the latter worsens the performance from $+6.72\%$ to $+6.12\%$ . + +Flexibility: It is noteworthy that the specific implementations within each module are not firmly fixed and can be updated to incorporate advancements in the field. For instance, at the global geometry learning level, as demonstrated in Table 7, HGL extends beyond prototype modeling like ProDA [49]. We can also explore constructing prototypes using weighted clustering or BMD [29]. At the temporal level, alternatives to SimSiam [5], simple cosine similarity, and the KL divergence, prove to be not only feasible but also superior to GIPSO. Moreover, integrating HGL into GIPSO to build a thorough local-global-temporal structure results in notable improvements. In summary, Table 7 supports the flexibility and generalization of our HGL framework. + +Efficiency: The last column of Table 4 exhibits the adaptation time. Compared to GPISO, our approach reduces the adaptation time by $80\%$ , which is mainly attributed to that our HGL does not introduce additional networks to extract geometric information and does not perform multiple calculations to estimate the uncertainty of pseudo-labels. + +Qualitative results: Fig. 4 depicts the pseudo-label and segmentation result of HGL. It is clear to find that LGL can accurately select pseudo-labels, while GGF can generalize them to a wider range of points. Fig. 5 shows the comparison between HGL, GIPSO, and the source model on SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI.

Technically, we have devised an innovative local geometry learning module to generate pseudo-label, proposed a global geometry fine-tuning module for pseudo-label fine-tuning, and introduced a temporal geometry regularization module for consistency regularization. Compared to existing approaches lacking thorough exploration of geometry information, HGL is appealing by the geometry hierarchical structure from local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) for accurate and robust self-supervised learning in TTA-3DSeg. Extensive experiments verify the high adaptability and efficiency of HGL. Remarkably, on the SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI task, HGL significantly outperforms GIPSO by $3.0\%$ and significantly reduces the required adaptation time by $80\%$ . + +Acknowledgments: This work is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 62372329), in part by Shanghai Scientific Innovation Foundation (No.23DZ1203400), in part by Shanghai Rising Star Program (No.21QC1400900), in part by Tongji-Qomolo Autonomous Driving Commercial Vehicle Joint Lab Project, and in part by Xiaomi Young Talents Program. + +# References + +1.

However, the generalization ability of models suffers in dynamic scenarios due to the distribution shift between test and training data. To promote robustness and adaptability across diverse scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has recently been introduced. Nevertheless, most existing TTA methods are developed for images, and limited approaches applicable to point clouds ignore the inherent hierarchical geometric structures in point cloud streams, i.e., local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) structures. In this paper, we delve into TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation and propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner. Technically, we first construct a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation. Next, we build prototypes from the global geometry perspective for pseudo-label fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization module to mitigate negative transfer.

Specifically, DG aims to learn a model using data from multiple diverse source domains that can generalize well to distribution-shifted target domains. DA utilizes the transductive learning manner to realize knowledge transfer from labeled source domains to unlabeled target domains. Despite showing encouraging results, their real-world applications are still restricted. In particular, DG primarily operates during the training phase and cannot fully utilize test data from application scenarios. DA typically necessitates access to both labeled source data and test data concurrently, constituting offline learning and can be hindered by privacy concerns or legal constraints. In many practical scenarios, DNNs require continual and adaptive updating in an online fashion to remain effective. Hence, we focus on an extreme case in domain adaptation: test-time adaptation (TTA), in which model adaptation is performed by learning from the unlabeled test (target) data during inference time [43]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 350, + 482, + 531 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 350, + 482, + 531 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 350, + 482, + 531 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Currently, most TTA approaches are proposed for 2D image data.

The challenge stems from the intrinsic property of 3D point cloud data, characterized by unordered geometric structures, and the distribution shift is primarily attributed to disparities in the geometric structural information between the source and target domains. More recently, GIPSO [33], designed specifically for TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation (TTA-3DSeg), leverages geometric and temporal information to mitigate the domain shift. Nevertheless, GIPSO simply employs geometric features for pseudo-label propagation with a frozen source model and lacks a thorough exploration of hierarchical geometry information, which prevents the pseudo-labels from benefiting by increasing target data.

The geometric purity represents the purity score of surrounding points, obtained by calculating anti-entropy based on the predictions of neighboring points. Besides, the prediction certainty is the anti-entropy of each point prediction. Based on selected local geometric pseudo-labels, we further introduce a global geometry fine-tuning module, in which we build prototypes for each class object on the target model and employ them as a new classifier to obtain global geometric pseudo-labels. By incorporating local and global geometric pseudo-labels, we could obtain robust and generalized local-global geometric pseudo-labels.

To tackle this, as shown in Fig. 1 a), we propose the Local Geometric Learning (LGL) module to fully leverage local point-level information. We first aggregate the predictions from spatial neighbors to generate more accurate pseudo-labels. Then, we introduce geometric purity and prediction certainty confidence to select reliable local geometric pseudo-labels.

Compared to existing approaches lacking thorough exploration of geometry information, HGL is appealing by the geometry hierarchical structure from local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) for accurate and robust self-supervised learning in TTA-3DSeg.

For HIMO-Gen, we generate the synchronized human motion and object motions conditioned on the language descriptions and the initial states of the human and the objects. Inspired by previous works on modeling human-human interaction generation [36,56,65,67] and human interacting with single object [31,32,46,64,68], it is straightforward to design a dual-branch conditional diffusion model to generate the human and object motion, respectively. However, this naive solution suffers from the following challenges. First, the generated human motion and object motions could be spatio-temporally misaligned. Second, implausible contacts between human-object and object-object are commonly encountered. To guarantee the coordination between human motion and object motions, we further design a mutual interaction module implemented as a stack of multiple mutual-attention layers.

Second, implausible contacts between human-object and object-object are commonly encountered. To guarantee the coordination between human motion and object motions, we further design a mutual interaction module implemented as a stack of multiple mutual-attention layers.

To precisely track the object motion, we attach several (3-6) reflective markers on their surface with strong glue, as shown in Fig. 2(b), to track the rigid body composed of the attached markers. The coordinate system of the subject and the objects are naturally aligned. One critical rule of attaching the markers to objects is to mitigate the side effects of manipulating the objects. Empirical results show that \\(12.5 \\mathrm{~mm}\\) diameter spherical markers achieve more robust tracking performance than smaller markers. Since the Optitrack system tracks the 6-DoF poses of the centroid of the attached markers rather than the centroid of the object, thus we employ a post-calibration process to compensate for the bias between them.

HIMO is a large-scale dataset of full-body interacting with multiple objects, with fine-grained textual descriptions. The long interaction sequences and the corresponding texts are elaborately segmented temporally, facilitating the detailed timeline control of multi-step human-object interactions. + +Abstract. Generating human-object interactions (HOIs) is critical with the tremendous advances of digital avatars. Existing datasets are typically limited to humans interacting with a single object while neglecting the ubiquitous manipulation of multiple objects. Thus, we propose HIMO, a large-scale MoCap dataset of full-body human interacting with multiple objects, containing 3.3K 4D HOI sequences and 4.08M 3D HOI frames. We also annotate HIMO with detailed textual descriptions and temporal segments, benchmarking two novel tasks of HOI synthesis conditioned on either the whole text prompt or the segmented text prompts as fine-grained timeline control. To address these novel tasks, we propose a dual-branch conditional diffusion model with a mutual interaction module for HOI synthesis. Besides, an auto-regressive generation pipeline is also designed to obtain smooth transitions between HOI segments. Experimental results demonstrate the generalization ability to + +unseen object geometries and temporal compositions. Our data, codes, and models will be publicly available for research purposes. + +Keywords: Human-Object Interaction $\cdot$ Multiple Objects $\cdot$ Text-driven HOI Synthesis $\cdot$ Temporal Segmentation + +# 1 Introduction + +Humans constantly interact with objects as daily routines. As a key component for human-centric vision tasks, the ability to synthesize human-object interactions (HOIs) is fundamental with numerous applications in video games, AR/VR, robotics, and embodied AI. However, most of the previous datasets and models [8,17,24,26,59] are limited to interacting with a single object, yet neglect the ubiquitous functionality combination of multiple objects. Intuitively, the multiple objects setting is more practical and allows for broader applications, such as manipulating multiple objects for robotics [44,70]. + +The scarcity of such datasets mainly results in the underdevelopment of the synthesis of human interacting with multiple objects, as listed in Tab. 1. GRAB [59] builds the dataset of 4D full-body grasping of daily objects ("4D" refers to 3D geometry and temporal streams, "full-body" emphasizes the body movements and dexterous finger motion), followed by several 4D HOI datasets with RGB modality [8,24], interacting with articulated [17] or sittable [26] objects. For text-driven HOI generation, [15,46] manually label the textual descriptions for the BEHAVE [8] and CHAIRS [26] datasets, and Li et al. [31,32] collect a dataset of human interacting with daily objects with textual annotations. Despite the significant development, all these datasets focus on single-object interactions. Thus, a dataset of full-body humans interacting with multiple objects incorporated with detailed textual descriptions is highly desired. + +Capturing 4D HOIs is challenging due to the subtle finger motions, severe occlusions, and precise tracking of various objects. Compared with a single object, interacting with multiple objects is more complicated regarding the spatial movements between human-object and object-object, and the temporal schedule of several atomic HOI intervals. For example, the process of a person interacting with a teapot and teacup could be: "Lift the teapot" $\rightarrow$ "Pour tea to the teacup" $\rightarrow$ "Drink tea", as shown in Fig. 1. To facilitate the synthesis of Human Interacting with Multiple Objects, we build a large-scale dataset called HIMO. We adopt the optical MoCap system to obtain precise body movements and track the motion of objects attached by reflective markers. For the dexterous finger motions, we employ wearable inertial gloves to avoid occlusions. In total, 3.3K 4D HOI sequences with 34 subjects performing the combinations of 53 daily objects are presented, resulting in 4.08M 3D HOI frames. Various subjects, object combinations, and interaction patterns also ensure the diversity of HIMO. + +To facilitate the study of text-driven HOI synthesis [12, 15, 20, 62, 73], we annotate the HOI sequences with fine-grained textual descriptions. Different from existing datasets, we additionally segment the long interaction sequences temporally and align the corresponding texts semantically, which allows for fine-grained + +Table 1: Dataset comparisons.

+ +timeline control, and a flexible schedule of multiple atomic HOI sequences. Revisiting the example of pouring water, after training based on our datasets, novel HOI compositions such as "Drink water" $\rightarrow$ "Lift the teapot" $\rightarrow$ "Add more tea to the teacup" could be synthesized benefited from our fine-grained temporal segments. Although temporal segmentation is widely adopted in video action domain [16,35,38,57], we are the first to introduce the annotations to 4D HOIs. + +Our HIMO dataset enables two novel generative tasks: 1) Text-driven HOI synthesis with multiple objects (denoted as HIMO-Gen); 2) HIMO-Gen conditioned on segmented texts as timeline control (denoted as HIMO-SegGen). Concretely, instead of single text as the condition for HIMO-Gen, HIMO-SegGen requires a series of multiple consecutive texts as guidance. For HIMO-Gen, we generate the synchronized human motion and object motions conditioned on the language descriptions and the initial states of the human and the objects. Inspired by previous works on modeling human-human interaction generation [36,56,65,67] and human interacting with single object [31,32,46,64,68], it is straightforward to design a dual-branch conditional diffusion model to generate the human and object motion, respectively. However, this naive solution suffers from the following challenges. First, the generated human motion and object motions could be spatio-temporally misaligned. Second, implausible contacts between human-object and object-object are commonly encountered. To guarantee the coordination between human motion and object motions, we further design a mutual interaction module implemented as a stack of multiple mutual-attention layers. We also add an object-pairwise loss based on the relative distance between the geometry of objects to generate plausible object movements. Experiments show that our method can synthesize realistic and coordinated HOIs. + +Furthermore, for the task of HIMO-SegGen, each segmented HOI clip paired with the corresponding text can be viewed as a sample to train the HIMO-Gen model, while the key of HIMO-SegGen lies in the smoothness between the generated clips. We introduce a simple yet effective scheme to auto-regressively generate one HOI clip at a time, conditioning the next clip generation with the last few frames of the previous clip. Experiment results show that conditioning on 10 frames achieves the best performance. Besides, we also show the gener + +alization ability of our model to unseen objects and novel HOI compositions. Overall, our contributions can be summarized as follows: + +- We collect a large-scale dataset of full-body human interacting with multiple daily objects called HIMO, with precise and diverse 4D-HOI sequences. +- We annotate the detailed textual descriptions for each long HOI sequence, together with the temporal segmentation labels, facilitating two novel downstream tasks of HIMO-Gen and HIMO-SegGen. +- We propose a dual-branch conditional diffusion model with a mutual interaction module to fuse the human and object features. We also propose a pipeline to auto-regressively generate the composite HOI sequences. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Human-Object Interaction Datasets + +Many human-object interactions together with the hand-object interaction datasets have been proposed to facilitate the development of modeling HOIs. Several works [10,21,22,25,39,40] focusing on hand-object interaction have been proposed. Though effective, modeling hand-object interactions falls significantly short of comprehending the nature of human-object interaction, since the interaction process involves more than just hand participation. Full-body interactions [8,17,24,26,42,59,69,74,76] may enhance our understanding of HOIs. GRAB [59], InterCap [24] and ARCTIC [17] broaden the range of 4D-HOIs to full-body interactions. However, all of these full-body datasets only involve one single object, while the combination of several different objects is common in our daily lives. The KIT Whole-body dataset [42] contains motion in which subjects manipulate several objects simultaneously. However, the human body is represented as a humanoid model instead of a more realistic SMPL-X model. We address the deficiency by introducing a full-body 4D-HOI dataset that involves full-body interaction with multiple objects. Comparisons with the existing HOI datasets are listed in Tab. 1. + +# 2.2 Text-driven Motion Generation + +Text-driven human motion generation aims at generating human motions based on textual descriptions. Benefiting from large-scale motion-text dataset like KIT-ML [49], BABEL [52] and HumanML3D [20], numerous works [12, 14, 32, 47, 62, 66, 73, 80] have emerged. TEMOS [47] proposes a transformer-based VAE to encode motion and an additional DistillBert [55] to encode texts. MDM [62] adopts the diffusion model [23] for motion generation. MLDM [12] denoises the low-dimensional latent code of motion instead of the raw motion sequences. T2M-GPT [73] utilizes VQ-VAE [43] to compress motion sequences into a learned codebook and then generate human motion in an auto-regressive fashion. GMD [27] further adds keyframe conditions to synthesize controllable human motion. In this work, we base our model on the widely adopted MDM [62] framework. + +# 2.3 Human-Object Interaction Generation + +Generating plausible and realistic human-object interaction sequences has attracted much attention in recent years [11, 13, 15, 19, 29, 32, 33, 46, 58-61, 64, 68, 71, 78]. GRAB [59] generates plausible hand poses grasping a given object. GOAL [58] and SAGA [64] extend it to full-body grasping motion generation. However, these methods convert the task into the generation of the final pose of a human interacting with the static object. Recent works like InterDiff [68] tackle the problem of synthesizing comprehensive full-body interactions with dynamic objects, which leverages a diffusion model [23] to predict future HOI with realistic contacts. IMoS [19] synthesizes vivid HOIs conditioned on an intent label, such as: "use", "lift" and "pass". Notice that none of the aforementioned methods can generate full-body HOI involving multiple objects. + +# 2.4 Temporal Action Composition + +Human motion composition [5,7,30,34,48,53,56,77] with text timeline control aims to generate arbitrary long human motion sequences with smooth and realistic transitions, which can be separated as two categories. First, several auto-regressive methods [5,30,34,53,77] are developed relying on the availability of motion transition annotations. These methods iteratively generate the subsequent motion based on the already generated motion. Second, a few diffusion-based methods [6,7,48,56,75] are proposed to modify the sampling process of diffusion models with overlaps of a predefined transition duration. In our setting of HIMO-SegGen, we also need to generate composite HOI sequences with smooth transitions. Thus, we adopt a simple yet effective auto-regressive pipeline to iteratively synthesize the HOI sequences. + +# 3 The HIMO Dataset + +We present HIMO, a large-scale 4D-HOI dataset of full-body human interacting with multiple objects, comprising accurate and diverse full-body human motion, object motions and mutual contacts. Next, we will introduce the data acquisition process in Sec. 3.1 and then describe the SMPL-X fitting process and the annotation of textual descriptions and the temporal segments in Sec. 3.2. + +# 3.1 Data Acquisition + +Hybrid Capture System. To obtain the accurate movement of the human body against occlusions, we follow [59] to adopt the optical MoCap scheme instead of multi-view RGB camera system [8, 24], which guarantees much lower error [59, 65]. We believe that high-quality moving sequences are more important than natural images for HOI motion data. An overview of our capturing setup can be seen in Fig. 2(a,c). We deploy Optitrack [3] MoCap system with 20 PrimeX-22 infrared cameras to capture the body motion, where each subject + +![](images/f1b614d29d300d8633bfdf7315ff1a94c4456fda6ee98e092f6f95f6315dfd9a.jpg) +(a) Whole-body setup + +![](images/19beef575da1329eea92a46f11e9112bd67d3abc12a256d2e742fbdeb1a19d34.jpg) +(b) Object setup + +![](images/9327cb2e7a0bcc0d16a29d158fd3653f42a5dde08e6fc0499655851d2a66cf31.jpg) +(c) The HOI MoCap framework +Fig. 2: Overview of the HIMO capture system.

Each camera can capture 2K frames at 120fps. To capture the dexterous finger movements, we select the inertial Noitom Perception Neuron Studio (PNS) gloves [2], which can precisely record the subtle finger poses in real-time. The inertial gloves can still work well under severe occlusions of human-object and object-object. We frequently re-calibrate the PNS gloves to ensure the capture quality. Spatially, the locating boards attached to the back of the hands provide the rotation information of the wrists, thus the human body movement can be integrated with the finger movements. Temporally, we utilize the Tentacle Sync device to provide timecodes for Optitrack and PNS gloves to synchronize them. Apart from the hybrid MoCap system for full-body motion capture, we also set up a Kinect camera to record the RGB videos from the front view with the resolution of $1080 \times 768$ . + +Capturing Objects. We choose 53 common household objects in various scenes including the dining rooms, kitchens, living rooms and studies from ContactDB [9] and Sketchfab [4]. We further reshape them into appropriate sizes and 3D print them, so that the 3D object geometry is aligned with the real printed objects. To precisely track the object motion, we attach several (3-6) reflective markers on their surface with strong glue, as shown in Fig. 2(b), to track the rigid body composed of the attached markers. The coordinate system of the subject and the objects are naturally aligned. One critical rule of attaching the markers to objects is to mitigate the side effects of manipulating the objects. Empirical results show that $12.5 \mathrm{~mm}$ diameter spherical markers achieve more robust tracking performance than smaller markers. Since the Optitrack system tracks the 6-DoF poses of the centroid of the attached markers rather than the centroid of the object, thus we employ a post-calibration process to compensate for the bias between them. The object category definition is listed in the supplementary. + +Recording Process. Each subject is asked to manipulate the pre-defined combinations of 2 or 3 objects, such as "pour tea from a teapot to a teacup" and "cut an apple on a knifeboard with a knife". Initially, the objects are randomly + +placed on a table with the height of $74~\mathrm{cm}$ and the subject keeps the rest pose. For each sequence, the subject is required to involve all the provided objects into the manipulation and perform 3 times of each interaction task with different operating patterns for variability. Casual operations yet may not be relevant to the prescribed action are welcome to enhance the complexity of each interaction sequence, such as "shaking the goblet before drinking from it" or "cleaning the knifeboard before cutting food on it". Finally, 34 subjects participated in the collection of HIMO, resulting in 3,376 HOI sequences, 9.44 hours and 4.08M frames, where 2,486 of them interacting with 2 objects and the other 890 sequences interacting with 3 objects. More details of the setting of the interaction categories can be found in the supplementary materials. + +# 3.2 Data Postprocessing + +Fitting SMPL-X Parameters. The expressive SMPL-X [45] parametric model is widely adopted by recent works [18,37,41,48,72] for its generality and flexible body part editing ability. We also adopt the SMPL-X model to represent the human body with finger articulations. Formally, the SMPL-X parameters consist of global orient $g \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , body pose $\theta_b \in \mathbb{R}^{21 \times 3}$ , finger poses $\theta_h \in \mathbb{R}^{30 \times 3}$ , root translation $t \in \mathbb{R}^3$ and shape parameter $\beta \in \mathbb{R}^{10}$ . An optimization algorithm is adopted to obtain the SMPL-X parameters for each HOI sequence based on our full-body MoCap data. We initialize the subjects' shape $\beta$ based on their height and weight following [51]. The joint energy term $\mathbb{E}_j$ optimizes body joints to our MoCap data as: + +$$ +\mathbb {E} _ {j} = \sum_ {n = 0} ^ {N} \sum_ {j = 0} ^ {J} \| P _ {n} ^ {j} - \hat {P} _ {n} ^ {j} \| _ {2} ^ {2}, \tag {1} +$$ + +where $N$ is the frame number of the sequence, $J$ is the number of human joints, $P_{n}^{j}$ and $\hat{P}_n^j$ represent our MoCap joint position and the joint position regressed from the SMPL-X model, respectively. The smoothing term $\mathbb{E}_s$ smooths the motion between frames and mitigates pose jittering as: + +$$ +\mathbb {E} _ {s} = \sum_ {n = 0} ^ {N - 1} \sum_ {j = 0} ^ {J} \| \hat {P} _ {n + 1} ^ {j} - \hat {P} _ {n} ^ {j} \| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {2} +$$ + +Finally, a regularization term $\mathbb{E}_r$ is adopted to regularize the SMPL-X pose parameters from deviating as: + +$$ +\mathbb {E} _ {r} = \left\| \theta_ {b} \right\| _ {2} ^ {2} + \left\| \theta_ {h} \right\| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {3} +$$ + +In total, the whole optimization objective can be summed as follows: + +$$ +\mathbb {E} = \alpha \mathbb {E} _ {j} + \lambda \mathbb {E} _ {s} + \gamma \mathbb {E} _ {r}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\alpha = 1, \lambda = 0.1, \gamma = 0.01$ . + +Textual Annotations.

Different from simple HOI manipulations with a single object and a single prompt, our HIMO dataset includes complex transitions among objects and temporal arrangements among different objects. Thus, the annotators are asked to describe the entire interaction procedure, emphasizing the detailed manipulation order, i.e., "First... , then... , finally... ", the interaction pattern, i.e., "picking up", "rotating" and "pouring", and the involved human body parts, i.e., the left hand or right hand. We exploit an annotation tool based on [1] to enable the annotators to rotate and resize the view to observe the subtle HOIs patterns. More visualization results of the text-HOI pairs are presented in Fig. 3. + +Temporal Segment Annotations. As aforementioned, the temporal segments of the long HOI sequences allow for fine-grained timeline control of decomposing the complex operation process into several simple ones. The granularity of the sequence splitting is small, as shown in Fig. 1. For example, the sequence of "pouring tea from the teapot to the teacup" can be split into "lifting the teapot", "pouring tea into the teacup" and "putting the teacup down". Similarly, we implement an annotation tool by [1] to better view the interaction details. The HOI sequence and its corresponding texts are simultaneously split into equal segments. Statistically, each sequence contains 2.60 segments on average. + +# 4 Text-driven HOI Synthesis + +In this section, we benchmark two novel tasks of HIMO-Gen in Sec. 4.1 and HIMO-SegGen in Sec. 4.2.

For HIMO-SegGen, we apply an auto-regressive generation scheme. + +# 4.1 The HIMO-Gen Framework + +Data Representation. We denote the human motion as $\pmb{H} \in \mathbb{R}^{T \times D_h}$ and the multiple object motions as $\pmb{O} = \{O_i\}_{i=0}^{N_o} \in \mathbb{R}^{T \times D_o}$ , where $T$ represents the frame number of the HOI sequence, $N_o$ is the number of the objects, $D_h$ and $D_o$ represent the dimension of the human and object motion, respectively. We adopt the SMPL-X [45] parametric model to represent the human movements. The pose state of human at frame $i$ is denoted as $\pmb{H}^i$ , which consists of the global joint positions $P^i \in \mathbb{R}^{52 \times 3}$ , global joint rotation $Q^i \in \mathbb{R}^{52 \times 6}$ represented by the continuous 6D rotation format [79] and translation $t^i \in \mathbb{R}^3$ . We also denote the object motion at frame $i$ as $O^i$ (We omit the subscript of the $i$ -th object/geometry for better expression), which comprises of the relative rotation $\mathbf{R}^i \in \mathbb{R}^6$ with respect to the input object's frame and its global translation $\mathbf{T}^i \in \mathbb{R}^3$ . To encode the object geometries $\pmb{G} = \{G_i\}_{i=0}^{N_o}$ , we follow prior works [31,59] to adopt the Basis Point Set (BPS) representation [50]. We sample 1,024 points from the surface of the object meshes, and then for each sampled point, we calculate the directional vector with its nearest neighbor from the basis points set, resulting in $\pmb{G} \in \mathbb{R}^{1024 \times 3}$ for each object. + +Problem Formulation. Given the textual description $\pmb{L}$ , the initial states of $\pmb{H}^0$ and $\pmb{O}^0$ as the first frame human motion and object motions and the object geometries $\pmb{G}$ . Our model aims to generate the spatio-temporally aligned human motion $\pmb{H}$ together with the object motions $\pmb{O}$ with plausible contacts. + +Dual-branch Diffusion Models. Our proposed framework is demonstrated in Fig. 4, which consists of two parallel diffusion-based branches for human and object motion generation and a mutual interaction module for feature fusion. + +Given a textual description $\pmb{L}$ like "drinks tea with his both hands", we utilize the CLIP [54] as text encoder followed by a linear layer to obtain the semantic embeddings and then concatenate them with the features of the sampling timestep $t$ extracted by an MLP process. Take the human motion generation branch as an example, the initial state $\pmb{H}^{0}$ including the initial position and the human pose serves as the conditions. Following [31], we adopt the masked representation by zero padding $\pmb{H}_{0}$ to $T$ frames. The masked representations are then concatenated with the noised human motion representation $\pmb{H}_{t}$ , where $t$ is the timestep of the forward diffusion process. For the object motion generation branch, the object geometry $\pmb{G}$ is embedded by a linear layer and concatenated with the masked representation of the initial pose of objects and the noised representation of object motions. We separately feed the obtained human and object representations into a linear layer to obtain the motion embeddings and then pass them into the denoising mutual interaction module with positional encodings. After that, two linear layers are adopted to obtain the denoised motion representations of human and objects, respectively. + +Mutual Interaction Module. To model the interaction between human and objects, we fuse the features of the two branches via a mutual interaction module as depicted in Fig. 4(c). The two branches share the same Transformer architecture with $\ell_{enc}$ blocks without sharing weights. Each Transformer block is comprised of two attention layers and one feed-forward layer. The first self-attention layer embeds the aggregated human/object features $H^{(i)}$ and $O^{(i)}$ into embeddings $\mathbf{e}_h^{(i)}$ or $\mathbf{e}_o^{(i)}$ . The second attention layer functions as a mutual attention layer, where the key-value pair of the human branch Transformer is provided by the object hidden embedding $\mathbf{e}_o^{(i)}$ , and vice versa, which can be formulated as: + +$$ +\pmb {H} ^ {(i + 1)} = F F (\operatorname {s o f t m a x} (\frac {\mathbf {Q} _ {h} \mathbf {K} _ {o} ^ {T}}{\sqrt {C}} \mathbf {V} _ {o})); \pmb {O} ^ {(i + 1)} = F F (\operatorname {s o f t m a x} (\frac {\mathbf {Q} _ {o} \mathbf {K} _ {h} ^ {T}}{\sqrt {C}} \mathbf {V} _ {h})), +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {Q} _ {h} = \mathbf {e} _ {h} ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {h} ^ {Q _ {h}}, \mathbf {K} _ {h} = \boldsymbol {H} ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {h} ^ {K _ {h}}, \mathbf {V} _ {h} = \boldsymbol {H} ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {h} ^ {V _ {h}}, \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {Q} _ {o} = \mathbf {e} _ {o} ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {o} ^ {Q _ {o}}, \mathbf {K} _ {o} = O ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {o} ^ {K _ {o}}, \mathbf {W} _ {o} = O ^ {(i)} \mathbf {W} _ {o} ^ {V _ {o}}, +$$ + +where the subscript $h$ and $o$ denote the human branch and the object branch, respectively, $\mathbf{W_h}$ and $\mathbf{W_o}$ denote the trainable parameters of the two branches. Losses Formulation. To model the spatial relation between objects, we designed a novel object-pairwise loss. Our insight is that the relative distance between the interacted objects changes constantly with certain patterns, and explicitly adding constraints on the relative distance between the interacted objects is beneficial. For example, when cutting an apple with a knife, the knife gradually approaches and stays on the surface of the apple for a while, then moves away. We adopt the $\mathbb{L}2$ loss as $\mathcal{L}_{dis}$ to keep the consistency between the generated results and the ground truth. + +Besides, we also adopt the widely adopted geometric loss in the field of human motion, including joint position loss $\mathcal{L}_{pos}$ and the joint velocity loss $\mathcal{L}_{vel}$ . To ensure the authenticity of our synthesized motion, we additionally utilized the interpenetration loss $\mathcal{L}_{pen}$ between human and objects. Here, we summarize our + +![](images/260105a952b68c19d6a8d2d01de8a8b939a2bdb61a86cab8131c50f2b2528808.jpg) +Fig. 5: The auto-regressive generation pipeline.

More details of the formulations of the losses will be illustrated in the supplementary materials. + +# 4.2 The HIMO-SegGen Framework + +Problem Formulation. The only difference with HIMO-Gen lies in the input text prompts, where HIMO-Gen takes one single text description $\pmb{L}$ as a condition, yet HIMO-SegGen is conditioned on a series of several atomic text prompts as $\pmb{L} = \{l_1, l_2, \dots, l_m\}$ . The key of HIMO-SegGen is to ensure smooth and realistic transitions between the generated HOI clips. + +Generation Pipeline. Our generation pipeline is demonstrated in Fig. 5, which is simple yet effective. We segment the long HOI sequences into smaller motion-text pairs so that the natural transitions of consecutive HOIs are reserved. We first train the HIMO-Gen model to empower the ability to generate more fine-granularity HOIs. Different from the vanilla HIMO-Gen model which is only conditioned on the initial state of the first frame, we modify it to conditioned generation on the past few frames. During the inference time, we take the last few frames of the previous generation result as the condition for the next generation, to iteratively obtain the composite HOI results. + +# 5 Experiments + +In this section, we elaborate on the dataset and implementation details, the baseline methods and the evaluation metrics. Then we present extensive experimental results with ablation studies to show the effectiveness of our benchmark. Dataset Details. We follow [20] to split our dataset into train, test, and validation sets with the ratio of 0.8, 0.15, and 0.05. The maximum motion length is set to 300 for HIMO-Gen and 100 for HIMO-SegGen. The maximum text length is set to 40 and 15, respectively. To mitigate the influence of the order of several objects, we randomly shuffle the objects when loading the data. + +Table 2: Quantitative baseline comparisons on the 2-objects partition of HIMO. $\pm$ indicates the $95\%$ confidence interval and $\rightarrow$ means the closer the better.

+ +Implementation Details. For both HIMO-Gen and HIMO-SegGen, the denoising network consists of $\ell_{enc} = 8$ layers of mutual interaction modules with 4 attention heads. We train the network using Adam [28] optimizer with a learning rate of 0.0001 and weight decay of 0.99. The training of HIMO-Gen and HIMO-SegGen takes about 9 and 12 hours on a single A100 GPU with a batch size of 128. + +Baseline Methods. We adopt the prominent text-to-motion methods MDM [62], priorMDM [56] and recent intent-driven HOI synthesis method IMoS [19] as our baselines. To be specific, we re-implement each model to support the condition input of object geometry and the initial states of human and objects. More details of the baselines are provided in the supplementary materials. + +Evaluation Metrics. Following [20], we train a motion feature extractor and a text feature extractor in a contrastive manner for evaluation. Since we are evaluating the generation quality of HOIs, the motion features here include both human and object motion. Then we evaluate over the set of metrics proposed by [20]: $R$ -precision and MM-Dist determine the relevance between the generated motion and the input prompts, FID measures the dissimilarity of the generated and ground-truth motion in latent feature space, Diversity measures the variability of the generated motions, and MultiModality shows the mean-variance of generated motion conditioned on a single text prompt. + +# 5.1 Results and Analysis + +Quantitative Comparisons.

The quantitative results of HIMO-SegGen outperform HIMO-Gen in MM-Dist and MModality, which may be attributed to its fine-grained control of generated motion since HIMO-SegGen takes more concise descriptions as input conditions. In the 3-objects setting of HIMO, our method also outperforms baselines on the R-precision and MM-Dist metrics, which further shows the effectiveness of our method. + +Qualitative Results. Qualitative results of our method are depicted in Fig. 6, which show that our method can synthesize plausible human-object interaction sequences. More generation results of HIMO-SegGen and visual comparisons will be presented in the supplementary materials. + +Generalization Experiments. We find that our trained model can also apply to unseen object meshes. Besides, with our elaborate annotate temporal segments, our trained HIMO-SegGen model can generate novel HOI compositions. Due to the space limit, more results are listed in the supplementary materials. + +# 5.2 Ablation Study + +We conduct extensive ablation studies on HIMO-Gen and HIMO-SegGen, as depicted in Tab. 4 and Tab. 5. For HIMO-Gen, we experiment with three settings: 1) Replacing the mutual interaction module with the original transformer layer (w/o IM); 2) Removing the object-pairwise loss (w/o $\mathcal{L}_{dis}$ ); 3) Generating human motion conditioned on the generated objects motion as [32]. From Tab. 4, we can derive that the removal of the mutual interaction module results in a huge drop of R-precision, which verifies the effectiveness of the feature fusion between human and objects. The object-pairwise loss helps a lot in constraining the generated motions. Consecutive generation scheme brings huge performance drop + +Table 4: Ablation studies of several model designs on 2-objects partition of HIMO. + +

+ +to generate the human and object motions simultaneously. For HIMO-SegGen, we experiment on the conditioned past 1, 5, 10 and 20 frames. Given the results in Tab. 5, "10-frames" achieves the best performance in R-precision, FID and MM-Dist. More past frames ("20 frames") provide no additional performance gain, which may result from less attention to the predicted frames. + +# 6 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose HIMO, a dataset of full-body human interacting with multiple household objects. We collect a large amount of 4D HOI sequences with precise and diverse human motions, object motions and mutual contacts. Based on that, we annotate the detailed textual descriptions for each HOI sequence to enable the text-driven HOI synthesis. We also equip it with elaborative temporal segments to decompose the long sequences into several atomic HOI steps, which facilitates the HOI synthesis driven by consecutive text prompts. Extensive experiments show plausible results, verifying that the HIMO dataset is promising for downstream HOI generation tasks. + +Limitations: Our work has the following limitations: 1) Large objects: Our HIMO dataset is built mainly based on small household objects, without human interacting with large objects such as chairs and suitcases. 2) RGB modality: Though we set up a Kinect camera to capture the monocular RGB sequences, the human and object appearances are unnatural since humans are wearing tight MoCap suits and objects are attached with reflective markers. 3) Facial expressions: We neglect the facial expressions since our dataset mainly focuses on the manipulation of multiple objects, i.e., the body movements, finger gestures and the object motions, which have little correlation with facial expressions. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported in part by NSFC (62201342, 62101325), and Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (2021SHZDZX0102). + +# References + +1.

Generating human-object interactions (HOIs) is critical with the tremendous advances of digital avatars. Existing datasets are typically limited to humans interacting with a single object while neglecting the ubiquitous manipulation of multiple objects. Thus, we propose HIMO, a large-scale MoCap dataset of full-body human interacting with multiple objects, containing 3.3K 4D HOI sequences and 4.08M 3D HOI frames. We also annotate HIMO with detailed textual descriptions and temporal segments, benchmarking two novel tasks of HOI synthesis conditioned on either the whole text prompt or the segmented text prompts as fine-grained timeline control. To address these novel tasks, we propose a dual-branch conditional diffusion model with a mutual interaction module for HOI synthesis. Besides, an auto-regressive generation pipeline is also designed to obtain smooth transitions between HOI segments.

For HIMO-Gen, we generate the synchronized human motion and object motions conditioned on the language descriptions and the initial states of the human and the objects. Inspired by previous works on modeling human-human interaction generation [36,56,65,67] and human interacting with single object [31,32,46,64,68], it is straightforward to design a dual-branch conditional diffusion model to generate the human and object motion, respectively. However, this naive solution suffers from the following challenges. First, the generated human motion and object motions could be spatio-temporally misaligned. Second, implausible contacts between human-object and object-object are commonly encountered. To guarantee the coordination between human motion and object motions, we further design a mutual interaction module implemented as a stack of multiple mutual-attention layers.

Several works [10,21,22,25,39,40] focusing on hand-object interaction have been proposed. Though effective, modeling hand-object interactions falls significantly short of comprehending the nature of human-object interaction, since the interaction process involves more than just hand participation. Full-body interactions [8,17,24,26,42,59,69,74,76] may enhance our understanding of HOIs. GRAB [59], InterCap [24] and ARCTIC [17] broaden the range of 4D-HOIs to full-body interactions. However, all of these full-body datasets only involve one single object, while the combination of several different objects is common in our daily lives. The KIT Whole-body dataset [42] contains motion in which subjects manipulate several objects simultaneously. However, the human body is represented as a humanoid model instead of a more realistic SMPL-X model.

However, these methods convert the task into the generation of the final pose of a human interacting with the static object.

The inertial gloves can still work well under severe occlusions of human-object and object-object. We frequently re-calibrate the PNS gloves to ensure the capture quality. Spatially, the locating boards attached to the back of the hands provide the rotation information of the wrists, thus the human body movement can be integrated with the finger movements.

The rapid growth of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has revolutionized neural rendering, enabling real-time production of high-quality renderings. However, the previous 3DGS-based methods have limitations in urban scenes due to reliance on initial Structure-from-Motion (SfM) points and difficulties in rendering distant, sky and low-texture areas. To overcome these challenges, we propose a hybrid optimization method named HO-Gaussian, which combines a grid-based volume with the 3DGS pipeline. HO-Gaussian eliminates the dependency on SfM point initialization, allowing for rendering of urban scenes, and incorporates the Point densification to enhance rendering quality in problematic regions during training.

To address the challenge of capturing precise geometry in urban-level scenes, most methods [34,36,46,52] promote the learning of geometry by either incorporating LiDAR observations to supervise NeRF or using LiDAR point clouds as the initialization of the scene [34,51,56].

Compared with 3DGS initialized by SfM points, our method has richer Gaussian geometric information in low-texture, sky and distant areas, and shows significant improvement in the task of synthesizing novel views. + +Abstract. The rapid growth of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has revolutionized neural rendering, enabling real-time production of high-quality renderings. However, the previous 3DGS-based methods have limitations in urban scenes due to reliance on initial Structure-from-Motion (SfM) points and difficulties in rendering distant, sky and low-texture areas. To overcome these challenges, we propose a hybrid optimization method named HO-Gaussian, which combines a grid-based volume with the 3DGS pipeline. HO-Gaussian eliminates the dependency on SfM point initialization, allowing for rendering of urban scenes, and incorporates the Point densification to enhance rendering quality in problematic regions during training. Furthermore, we introduce Gaussian Direction Encoding as an alternative for spherical harmonics in the rendering pipeline, which enables view-dependent color representation. To account + +for multi-camera systems, we introduce neural warping to enhance object consistency across different cameras. Experimental results on widely used autonomous driving datasets demonstrate that HO-Gaussian achieves photo-realistic rendering in real-time on multi-camera urban datasets. + +Keywords: Novel View Synthesis $\cdot$ Urban Scenes $\cdot$ Gaussian Splatting + +# 1 Introduction + +Urban scene simulation is of great significance in autonomous driving, which usually generates diverse and large-scale data for training and evaluating various models in autonomous driving, such as occupancy prediction [52, 57], segmentation [5, 13, 14], and object detection [6, 24, 44, 57]. + +Despite the conventional methods using image-processing techniques to render images in urban scene simulation [2,25], recent neural radiance fields (NeRF)-based approaches [30] have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in facilitating realistic reconstructions and synthesizing novel views from multi-view images. For instance, Block-NeRF [42] decomposes a large scene into blocks and trains NeRFs for each block. DNMP [27] proposes a deformable neural mesh primitives to represent urban scenes by combining mesh-based rendering and neural representations, where each voxel is accurately initialized as a deformable neural mesh primitive. To address the challenge of capturing precise geometry in urban-level scenes, most methods [34,36,46,52] promote the learning of geometry by either incorporating LiDAR observations to supervise NeRF or using LiDAR point clouds as the initialization of the scene [34,51,56]. Nevertheless, synthetic views generated by these methods often exhibit artifacts and lack fine details in texture. Furthermore, the real-time rendering capability of these methods is constrained by the NeRF representation, where volume rendering requires a large number of ray samples per pixel to inference the MLP network. + +In contrast to NeRF, a more recent technique called 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [22] offers a notable alternative. 3DGS utilizes explicit 3D Gaussians to represent the scene and has made significant advancements in efficiently rendering novel views. Moreover, 3DGS has been successfully integrated into various platforms and traditional rendering pipelines, including lightweight web rendering and game engines, such as Unity [16] and Unreal [21]. However, the effectiveness of 3DGS heavily relies on well-initialized point clouds acquired from either SfM (Structure-from-Motion) [39,47] or SLAM (Simultaneous localization and mapping) [9,11]. While random initialization proves to be effective for object-centric scenes in 3DGS, it becomes inadequate in dealing with unbounded urban environments with limited views. SfM and SLAM systems often treat regions with uniform texture as outliers, resulting in incomplete 3D reconstructions. Additionally, regular LiDAR devices have limited range in providing point cloud data. These factors make it difficult for 3DGS to be optimized effectively, resulting in subpar rendering effects. Moreover, the explicit 3D Gaussian representation occupies large amount of disk space. + +To tackle the above challenges in synthesizing urban scenes by 3DGS in real-time, this paper presents HO-Gaussian, a point-free representation method for multi-camera urban scenes. To facilitate end-to-end optimization, we suggest a hybrid scheme to optimize both the volume and Gaussian. Our approach presents point densification to circumvent the reliance on initialization points inherent to 3DGS-based methods. Specifically, we improve rendering quality by introducing a volume to optimize the position of Gaussians, facilitating the learning of geometric information in sky, distant and low-texture areas. To enhance the capabilities of scene representation in the rendering pipeline, we introduce Gaussian positional and directional encoding technique, which effectively models spherical harmonics and reduces the disk space requirement of Gaussian splattering method. Notably, storing view-dependent spherical harmonic functions even within a range of just a few hundred meters requires gigabytes of disk space in large-scale urban scenes. To render urban scenes with multi-camera, we introduce neural warping scheme that ensures the consistent rendering results across multiple cameras through mutual learning between different camera perspectives. This approach reduces the risk of overfitting to the specific viewpoints, enhancing the generalization capability of the rendering pipeline. The contributions of this paper can be summarized as follows. + +- We propose a novel pipeline to learn the positions of Gaussians from a grid-based volume, which allows for better optimization of geometric information and rendering results in urban scenes. +- We present the Gaussian positional and directional encoding that improve the scene representation of rendering pipeline, addressing the excessive disk space usage associated with spherical harmonic functions in 3DGS-based methods. Additionally, the presented neural warping scheme enables our approach to efficiently synthesize novel views across various cameras. +- Extensive experiments on widely-used autonomous driving datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method compared to either the previous NeRF-based methods or 3DGS-based approaches. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Scene Representation + +3D data can be represented in various forms, such as point clouds, meshes, and voxels. These representations are typically obtained through techniques like Structure from Motion (SfM) [10,12,39,41,47], Multi-View Stereo (MVS) [17,20, 40,55], or scanning with LiDAR devices (SLAM systems) [4,9,11,32,33]. SfM and SLAM systems often treat regions with uniform textures as outliers, resulting in incomplete 3D reconstructions. MVS methods, on the other hand, strive to estimate dense 3D geometry while focusing on static scenes and highly overlapping image sets with known poses. However, current neural rendering technologies such as NeRF [28,29,42,46,50,53], Point-based Rendering [1,18,23,26,37,38,58] + +and 3DGS [7, 8, 22, 43, 58] rely on accurate geometric representations to provide clues. To enhance the quality of novel view synthesis in urban scenes, we propose to learn from a grid-based volume and optimize the geometric information through a Gaussian pipeline. This enables us to supplement the geometry information of distant and low-texture areas. + +# 2.2 NeRF for Urban Scenes + +The implicit neural representation proposed by NeRF has achieved promising results in various scenes, and many researchers have applied it to large-scale outdoor scenes. Block-NeRF [42] first proposed a NeRF composed of multiple regional blocks, using appearance, and exposure embedding to model data in different time periods. SUDS [46] decomposes the scene into three separate hash table data structures to efficiently encode static, dynamic and far-field radiance fields. LocalRF [28] presents an innovative approach by implementing a progressive strategy to dynamically assign local radiance fields. Furthermore, some methods [15,27,48,52,54] have achieved promising results by applying NeRF to driving scenarios. However, NeRF-based methods often suffer from artifacts and lack of realistic textures in outdoor scenes. Due to the limited representation capabilities and inefficient rendering pipeline, it is difficult for them to be widely used in the real-world large scale applications. + +# 2.3 Point-based Rendering and 3D Gaussian Splatting + +Point-based rendering methods are widely used to efficiently render unstructured geometric samples. NPBG [1] utilizes neural textures to encode local geometric shapes and appearances, enabling high-quality synthesis of novel views from point clouds. Building upon this, ADOP [37] proposes a point-based differentiable neural rendering pipeline that leverages single-pixel rasterization to refine all input parameters. Recently, 3D Gaussian Splatting [22] combines the concept of point-based rendering [1] and splatting [58] techniques for rendering, which employs explicit 3D Gaussian as the representation of the scene. It achieves real-time rendering while maintaining sufficient quality. The explicit representation without a neural network brings fast rendering speed, however, it makes the Gaussian method require a lot of memory and storage resources due to storing Gaussian-related properties, such as covariance matrices and higher-order spherical harmonics.

The hybrid optimization starts from a grid-based volume, creating a set of Gaussian points, with the grid-based volume and Gaussian pipeline iteratively optimized. Subsequently, at regular intervals, point densification provides new positions to the Gaussian pipeline to populate problematic regions.

Crucially, it circumvents the drawbacks of Gaussian splatting in large-scale urban scenarios, such as redundant disk usage, through the design of a grid-based volume representation and Gaussian directional encoding. To enhance the adaptability of rendering pipeline to multi-camera urban scenes and mitigate the risk of overfitting to specific viewpoints, we introduce a novel neural warping module. Moreover, HO-Gaussian addresses the challenges inherent to multi-camera urban scenes. It achieves real-time rendering performance while preserving photo-realistic texture details. + +# 3.1 Preliminary + +The 3D Gaussian Splatting method [22] introduces an explicit representation for 3D scenes that leverages the diverse properties of Gaussians to capture the scene geometry. The approach commences with a set of SfM points and subsequently employs a collection of anisotropic 3D Gaussian models to represent the scene. These Gaussian models inherit various properties inherent to volumetric representations while achieving efficient rendering through a tile-based rasterization algorithm. The 3D Gaussian can be mathematically formulated as: + +$$ +G (x) = e ^ {- \frac {1}{2} (x - \mu) ^ {T} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {- 1} (x - \mu)}, \tag {1} +$$ + +where $x$ denotes an arbitrary position within the 3D scene. Each 3D Gaussian splot is assigned a position (mean) $\mu$ , and $\pmb{\Sigma}$ represents the covariance matrix of + +the 3D Gaussian. To ensure the positive semi-definiteness of $\pmb{\Sigma}$ , it is represented as the product of a scaling matrix $\mathbf{S}$ and a rotation matrix $\mathbf{R}$ : + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Sigma} = \mathbf {R} \mathbf {S} \mathbf {S} ^ {\mathrm {T}} \mathbf {R} ^ {\mathrm {T}}. \tag {2} +$$ + +The Gaussian splatting method leverages splatting techniques [58] to project the 3D Gaussians onto 2D image planes for rendering purposes. Given the viewing transformation $\mathbf{W}$ and the Jacobian of the affine approximation for the projective transformation $\mathbf{J}$ [59], the covariance matrix $\pmb{\Sigma}^{\prime}$ in camera coordinates can be computed as $\pmb{\Sigma}^{\prime} = \mathbf{J}\mathbf{W}\pmb{\Sigma}\mathbf{W}^{\mathrm{T}}\mathbf{J}^{\mathrm{T}}$ + +Each 3D Gaussian consists of its position, color represented by spherical harmonics (SH), opacity, rotation, and scaling. For a given pixel, it is calculated via multiplying the covariance $\pmb{\Sigma}$ by the learned opacity $\alpha$ for each point, as shown in Eqn. 1. The color blending of $N$ ordered points with overlapping pixels is determined by: + +$$ +\mathbf {C} = \sum_ {i \in N} \mathbf {c} _ {i} \alpha_ {i} \prod_ {j = 1} ^ {i - 1} (1 - \alpha_ {j}), \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{c}_i$ denotes the color of a point, and $\alpha_{i}$ is its opacity. + +# 3.2 Point densification based on Hybrid Volume + +The original 3DGS method adaptively controls the number of Gaussian points through clone and split operations. It allows to convert an initial sparse set into a denser one that better represents the scene geometry by filling in empty areas and removing over-reconstructed regions. However, this approach relies on an accurate initialization of the sparse points. Moreover, the original 3DGS densification occurs only in the vicinity of the initial sparse points. For urban scenes, the initial sparse points optimized by SfM techniques often exhibit holes in regions such as the sky, distant areas, or low-texture areas, resulting in blank areas that cannot be rendered accurately. To address this limitation, we introduce a grid-based volumetric representation to provide new positions for the Gaussian pipeline, as illustrated in Fig. 3. + +Point densification The grid-based volume is a continuous function $f$ mapping location $\mathbf{x}$ and direction $\mathbf{d}$ to a volume density $\sigma \in [0, \infty)$ and color $\mathbf{c} \in [0, 1]^3$ . The sigma $\sigma_{\theta}$ and color $\mathbf{c}_{\theta}$ indicate the density and color prediction of radiance field using MLPs $f_{\theta}$ , parameterized by $\theta$ : + +$$ +\mathbf {c} _ {\theta}, \sigma_ {\theta} = f _ {\theta} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {d}). \tag {4} +$$ + +Given a ray $\mathbf{r}$ belonging to the ray set $\mathcal{R}$ , we can infer the predicted Gaussian position from grid-based volume by $\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{o} + \hat{\mathbf{D}}_{\theta}(\mathbf{r})\mathbf{d}_{\mathbf{r}}$ , where the 3D position $\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ and direction $\mathbf{d} \in \mathbb{S}^3$ , $\hat{\mathbf{D}}_{\theta}(\mathbf{r})$ can be approximated by integrating the sampled particles along the ray direction $\mathbf{d}$ . $Q(u)$ denotes the accumulated transmittance along the ray + +$$ +\hat {\mathbf {D}} _ {\theta} (\mathbf {r}) = \int_ {u _ {n}} ^ {u _ {f}} Q (u) \sigma_ {\theta} (\mathbf {r} (u)) u d u, \tag {5} +$$ + +![](images/ed5299029f6acb4262467c123b3cd07bb41cfe67597b247aa5424b9751cc1763.jpg) + +![](images/1ca9a4d973085633066d3faac71e030bb5ac6ecfb769c669c4d694c475f39ba5.jpg) +Fig. 3: Comparing densification strategies of 3DGS and our HO-Gaussian. The cloning and splitting strategies of 3DGS can effectively optimize the Gaussian distribution near the initial SfM points. However, they fail to work in low-texture or distant areas where the positions of initial points are missing. HO-Gaussian is capable of learning and optimizing Gaussian distributions beyond the initial points. First, Point densification supplies the Gaussian pipeline with missing points within viewpoints, preventing the projection of empty 2D splats. Subsequently, Neural Warping introduces virtual viewpoints, thereby covering more occluded points. Finally, clone and split operations are employed to fine-tune the positions of inaccurate splats, and Gaussian splats with opacity values $\alpha$ below a threshold $\epsilon_{\alpha}$ are removed. + +$$ +Q (u) = \exp \left(- \int_ {u _ {n}} ^ {u} \sigma_ {\theta} (\mathbf {r} (s)) d s\right), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $u_{n}$ and $u_{f}$ is the predefined near and far planes for rendering, respectively. Combined with Eqn. 1, the Gaussian can be expressed as below: + +$$ +G (x) = e ^ {- \frac {1}{2} (\mathbf {o} + \hat {\mathbf {D}} _ {\theta} (\mathbf {r}) \mathbf {d} _ {\mathbf {r}} - \mu) ^ {T} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {- 1} (\mathbf {o} + \hat {\mathbf {D}} _ {\theta} (\mathbf {r}) \mathbf {d} _ {\mathbf {r}} - \mu)}. \tag {7} +$$ + +For stability, we warm up the calculations in the grid-based volume. Subsequently, we select the candidate locations $\mathbf{x}$ within a bounded range and determine whether to add them to the Gaussian pipeline based on whether their density meets a predefined threshold $\tau$ . For locations satisfying with the density criterion, we introduce a new Gaussian splat into the Gaussian pipeline, along with its associated Gaussian parameters, such as the corresponding covariance matrix. + +The introduced grid-based volume representation facilitates point densification, supplying the Gaussian pipeline with missing points within viewpoints, thereby preventing the projection of empty 2D splats, as illustrated in Fig. 3(b). Compared to LiDAR or SfM points, the points generated by this densification + +strategy lack precision. To address this limitation, we introduce a hybrid optimization strategy, as described in Section 3.5. Through clone and split operations within the Gaussian pipeline, we fine-tune the positions of inaccurate splats and remove Gaussian splats with opacity values $\alpha$ below a threshold $\epsilon_{\alpha}$ . + +Gaussian Positional Encoding In urban scene, the rich details of large-scale scenes require a significant amount of Gaussian optimization. However, the limitations of video memory for 3D Gaussian result in an uneven distribution of a limited number of Gaussians in space, making it challenging to render the entire scene. Simply applying 3DGS to large-scale scenes can lead to low-quality reconstructions or insufficient memory. Therefore, we introduce Gaussian Positional Encoding, inspired by Kalman filter [19] and Mip-NeRF 360 [3]. By compressing the urban scene within a certain range, the Gaussian position encoding allows expressing distant areas with smaller or fewer Gaussians in the nearby regions, achieving high-quality scene reconstruction without increasing memory usage. By leveraging Gaussian positional encoding, we distort the unbounded scene domain into a finite sphere, as follows: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} _ {\text {e n c o d i n g}} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \mathbf {x} & \text {i f} \| \mathbf {x} \| _ {2} \leq 1 \\ \left(2 - \frac {1}{\| \mathbf {x} \| _ {2}}\right) \frac {\mathbf {x}}{\| \mathbf {x} \| _ {2}} & \text {i f} \| \mathbf {x} \| _ {2} > 1 \end{array} \right. \tag {8} +$$ + +# 3.3 The Gaussian Directional Encoding + +Urban scenes encompass a diverse array of elements, including various traffic vehicles, buildings, and other structures, coexisting under different lighting conditions. The method based on 3DGS requires a large number of Gaussians to model various objects. The rapid increase in the number of Gaussians and the use of high-order SH bring disk Space explodes. Therefore, we utilize view-dependent color $c_{\theta}$ instead of higher-order SH, in which only 0-degree SH is used during training. Specifically, we employ Gaussians to model 3D shapes, while a grid-based neural network generates view-dependent colors as Gaussian directional encodings. Our model adopts the Gaussian representation as: $\{(\mathcal{N}(\mathbf{x}_{\text{encoding}}(i), \boldsymbol{\Sigma}_i), \alpha_i, c_i)\}_{i=1}^n$ , where view-dependent color $c_i$ is obtained from the MLPs network $f$ from Eqn. 4. + +# 3.4 Neural Warping + +Due to the limited overlapping area in multi-camera systems, it is hard to align the colors of objects at different viewpoints, which can make scenes difficult to be optimized. To this end, we introduce a neural warping strategy that simulates images from different virtual viewpoints through grid-based volume, covering various view-dependent colors and virtual positions. This approach helps the model better adapt to real-world scenarios and reduces the risk of overfitting to the specific viewpoints. + +By employing a grid-based volume, we generate multiple virtual poses and positions by perturbing the existing pose. This allows us to obtain the warped + +colors from the volume to assist in fitting objects in multi-cameras through the Gaussian splatting pipeline. Perturbing the pose involves rotating around the current position $x_{p}$ with random angles within the range of $[-10, 10]$ . The existing image point captured $p_{i}$ under camera pose $[R_{e}, T_{e}]$ is distorted to image point $p_{v}$ with the virtual pose $[R_{v}, T_{v}]$ . We define the generation of this neural warping as follows + +$$ +p _ {v} = K \left(R _ {v} \left(p _ {i}\right) + T _ {v}\right), \tag {9} +$$ + +where $K$ is the intrinsic matrix. According to Eqn. 4, we can get the color of the warped image $\mathbf{c}_{\mathbf{v}\theta} = f_{\theta}(\mathbf{x}_{\mathbf{p}},\mathbf{d})$ . The warped image provides the Gaussian pipeline with more viewpoints to learn the consistent appearance and geometry of the scene. + +# 3.5 Hybrid Optimization + +In summary, we optimize the HO-Gaussian pipeline through a hybrid scheme, including Gaussian and volume optimization. + +For $N$ Gaussians and their attributes (i.e., position $\mathbf{x}_{\text{encoding}}(i)$ , opacity $\alpha_{i}$ , color $c_{\theta i}$ , covariance matrix $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}_i$ ), we train the entire model by sampling from ground truth and warped images. We optimize the learnable attribute parameters using a combination of $L_{1}$ loss and SSIM loss between the ground truth $c(\mathbf{r})$ and rendered images $C$ as below + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {g}} = (1 - \lambda) \mathcal {L} _ {1} (C, c (\mathbf {r})) + \lambda \mathcal {L} _ {\text {S S I M}} (C, c (\mathbf {r})). \tag {10} +$$ + +The grid-based volume consists of two MLPs with parameters, predicting density and color respectively.

Please zoom in to view the detailed results. + +12 sequences. Through both qualitative and quantitative analysis, we demonstrate convincing results, showing that our method achieves the promising performance and efficiency compared to other methods while mitigating the disk space issues caused by urban scenes. Consistent with the method described in 3DGS, our model retains all hyperparameters of 3DGS and the trained model over 30K iterations in all scenarios. The neural field for view-dependent colors uses a hash grid, followed by an MLP network with a layer number of 2 and 64 channels. The density network consists of an MLP network with a layer number of 1 and 64 channels. The values of the hyperparameters $\lambda$ and $\lambda_{1}$ are set to 0.2 and 0.1, respectively. + +# 4.2 Datasets + +In our experiments, we evaluated our method on large-scale urban datasets, namely Waymo and Argoverse. We conducted evaluations across eight scenarios from the Waymo dataset and four scenarios from the Argoverse dataset. The Waymo dataset comprises three cameras with a resolution of $1920 \times 1280$ . We tested our method on both daytime and nighttime scenes from Waymo. As for the Argoverse dataset, it features seven cameras with a resolution of $1920 \times 1200$ . To thoroughly assess the representation capability of model and mitigate the potential overfitting issues arising from small scenes, we selectively perform evaluation on scenes containing more than 550 frames of image data. Following [1, 26, 28, 42, 45], we select every ten frames for testing while choosing the remaining ones for training. + +# 4.3 Evaluation Results + +To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HO-Gaussian method, we compared it with NeRF-based methods for urban scenes that do not require SfM or LiDAR points, including instant NGP [31], MERF [35], Block-NeRF [42] and LocalRF [28]. These methods have shown promising results in synthesizing urban scenes. In order to intuitively reflect the effectiveness of our method, we also compared it against methods that require SfM points or LiDAR information, namely S-NeRF [49] and EmerNeRF [52], respectively. Similar to the evaluation protocols used in these methods, we employed three widely used metrics for evaluation: Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), and Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS). + +Comparing Methods without SfM (LiDAR) Point Instant NGP [31] employs hash coding for fast radiance field reconstruction. However, it is unsuitable to reconstruct the large-scale scenes. In this regard, MERF [35] proposes a novel contraction function to optimize large-scale scenes by distorting the unbounded scene domain into finite space. Significant improvements are observed in both Waymo and Argoverse datasets. Block-NeRF [42] and LocalRF [28] focus on handling outdoor large-scale scene tasks by dividing urban scenes into blocks and employing progressive rendering. Among them, Block-NeRF has poor rendering results due to the poor strategy of dividing multi-camera areas (failed on the Argoverse dataset). LocalRF achieves excellent rendering results in urban scenes, however, it is limited by the scene division strategy in the Waymo dataset. Furthermore, scene division-based NeRF methods often suffer from disk space redundancy, as shown in both Table 1 and Table 2. + +Comparing Methods with SfM (LiDAR) Point In urban-level scenes, most methods rely on using LiDAR or SfM points as scene initialization to reduce unnecessary computations in the radiance field. Alternatively, supervised learning with LiDAR data is used to capture better scene geometry. For example, methods like [27, 34, 36, 46, 52] are commonly employed. In our comparison, we selected two well-performing methods, namely S-NeRF [49] and EmerNeRF [52], to assess their performance. Since these two methods require a huge amount of + +Table 1: Quantitative evaluation of novel view synthesis on the Waymo and Argoverse dataset. "***" denotes half resolution. + +

+ +# 4.4 Ablation study + +In this section, we conduct both qualitative and quantitative experiments using the Argoverse dataset to evaluate each component of our method. We will use Gaussian initialized by SfM points and LiDAR points as the baseline, as shown in Table 2. To demonstrate the advantages of our proposed end-to-end hybrid optimization, we also compare using point clouds generated by NeRF as the initialization of the Gaussian method. It can be seen from the Table 2 the Gaussian method initialized by SfM points and LiDAR points performs poorly due to the lack of geometric information in low-texture areas and distance areas, resulting in blurred rendering results, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 4. The point cloud generated by NeRF can make up for the shortcomings of low-texture areas. Due to the lack of accuracy, the effect is not much improved. + +Compared with the original 3DGS method, we first introduced the view-dependent color based on grid volume to replace the spherical harmonic function, called w/ Gaussian directional encoding. The model size was significantly reduced from 557MB to 123MB, decreasing the disk space usage by $352.8\%$ . Then, we introduced Gaussian positional encoding, and the results were slightly improved. Through the Point densification, we add Gaussian positions to low-texture areas and distant areas of the urban scene, and fine-tune the Gaussian positions by gradient descent of the Gaussian pipeline. As shown in Fig. 4 and Table 2, the rendering results of the Gaussian point optimization region have been significantly improved. Finally, we introduce neural warping to provide more virtual viewpoints to the Gaussian pipeline to improve rendering quality. + +# 4.5 Complexity Analysis + +Model Size and Rendering Speed Rendering speed and model size are crucial for the task of novel view synthesis of urban scenes, since it directly affects interaction efficiency and storage.

Compared with SfM points, the geometry generated by our method has greater advantages in low-texture and distance areas. More results are included in the supplementary material. This section also aims to discuss the reliability of the novel view synthesis evaluation metric. The PSNR score of HO-Gaussian is slightly lower than LocalRF in Table 1. However, the error in the LPIPS metric is reduced by $30.1\%$ . This difference occurs because PSNR focuses on pixel-level details through mean square error analysis, while the LPIPS metric measures overall image similarity. In Fig. 5, HO-Gaussian exhibits finer texture details compared to LocalRF. + +# 5 Conclusion + +For large-scale urban scenes, this paper proposes a hybrid optimization method that fuses grid-based volume with 3DGS pipeline. HO-Gaussian eliminates the dependency on SfM point initialization and enhances the rendering quality of problematic areas in urban scenes by adding Gaussian points. We introduce Gaussian positional encoding and directional encoding to improve the representation capability of the scene while reducing storage requirement. The HO-Gaussian pipeline is provided with more viewpoints by introducing neural warping to improve the consistent appearance and geometry of the scene. Extensive experiments on several autonomous driving datasets demonstrate its ability to achieve real-time, realistic rendering in multi-camera urban scenes. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work is supported by the National Key Research and Development Program of China (No. 2023YFF0905104) and also by National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants (62376244). + +# References + +1.

The rapid growth of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has revolutionized neural rendering, enabling real-time production of high-quality renderings. However, the previous 3DGS-based methods have limitations in urban scenes due to reliance on initial Structure-from-Motion (SfM) points and difficulties in rendering distant, sky and low-texture areas. To overcome these challenges, we propose a hybrid optimization method named HO-Gaussian, which combines a grid-based volume with the 3DGS pipeline. HO-Gaussian eliminates the dependency on SfM point initialization, allowing for rendering of urban scenes, and incorporates the Point densification to enhance rendering quality in problematic regions during training. Furthermore, we introduce Gaussian Direction Encoding as an alternative for spherical harmonics in the rendering pipeline, which enables view-dependent color representation.

The cloning and splitting strategies of 3DGS can effectively optimize the Gaussian distribution near the initial SfM points. However, they fail to work in low-texture or distant areas where the positions of initial points are missing. HO-Gaussian is capable of learning and optimizing Gaussian distributions beyond the initial points.

Simply applying 3DGS to large-scale scenes can lead to low-quality reconstructions or insufficient memory. Therefore, we introduce Gaussian Positional Encoding, inspired by Kalman filter [19] and Mip-NeRF 360 [3].

This analysis accounts for differences in frequency information among individuals in the same posture, aiming to demonstrate the ability of these variant CNNs to handle fluctuations in information frequency and signal strength. As seen from Table 7, HPE-Li encompasses various models, including the regular CNN, SENet [16], dynamic convolution (DConv) [7], frequency dynamic convolution (FDConv) [29] and traditional SK convolution (SKConv) [25], which server as benchmarks. SENet calculates kernel attention using global feature information through GAP and two FC layers with softmax activation. In contrast, DConv and FDConv compute attention across multiple kernels of the same size. Performance comparisons consistently demonstrate that SKConv outperforms SENet. However, SKConv exclusively evaluates attention in the channel domain, potentially leading to the loss of critical information. Consequently, DSKConv achieves superior performance compared to SKConv, surpassing $28~\\mathrm{mm}$ in the MPJPE metric. Furthermore, a comparison involving DSKConv, DConv and FDConv on MM-Fi reveals that DSKConv achieves more favorable results due to its adaptive receptive field size and diverse feature extraction, outperforming DConv by $36~\\mathrm{mm}$ and FDConv by $28~\\mathrm{mm}$ in the MPJPE metric.

In contrast, the WiFi-based approach has recently emerged as a promising alternative by leveraging the widespread nature of WiFi signals in practical environments. This approach offers a non-intrusive, privacy-aware solution that mitigates the inherent limitations of traditional methods. The interaction between WiFi signals and the hierarchical structure of the human suggests the feasibility of extracting pose features from diverse WiFi channel state information (CSI) [5], thus enabling HPE tasks.

Additionally, synthesized skeleton movements must mirror natural human movement patterns, requiring continuity and smoothness. Recent research has focused on addressing these challenges through various approaches [20, 32, 41, 44, 55, 56]. The resolution and characteristics of WiFi CSI signals are enhanced by utilizing the multi-antenna technique or increasing the number of subcarriers [41, 50, 56].

This analysis accounts for differences in frequency information among individuals in the same posture, aiming to demonstrate the ability of these variant CNNs to handle fluctuations in information frequency and signal strength. As seen from Table 7, HPE-Li encompasses various models, including the regular CNN, SENet [16], dynamic convolution (DConv) [7], frequency dynamic convolution (FDConv) [29] and traditional SK convolution (SKConv) [25], which server as benchmarks. SENet calculates kernel attention using global feature information through GAP and two FC layers with softmax activation. In contrast, DConv and FDConv compute attention across multiple kernels of the same size. Performance comparisons consistently demonstrate that SKConv outperforms SENet. However, SKConv exclusively evaluates attention in the channel domain, potentially leading to the loss of critical information. Consequently, DSKConv achieves superior performance compared to SKConv, surpassing \\(28~\\mathrm{mm}\\) in the MPJPE metric. Furthermore, a comparison involving DSKConv, DConv and FDConv on MM-Fi reveals that DSKConv achieves more favorable results due to its adaptive receptive field size and diverse feature extraction, outperforming DConv by \\(36~\\mathrm{mm}\\) and FDConv by \\(28~\\mathrm{mm}\\) in the MPJPE metric.

We then develop an efficient deep neural network to process raw WiFi signals.

The discomfort of wearing devices during vigorous activity, alongside limitations inherent to camera systems such as fixed angles, occlusions, glare interference and low-light conditions, poses significant barriers. Other concerns regarding personal privacy further impede the widespread adoption of traditional methods in monitoring human tasks. + +Multi-modal sensors for HPE tasks have been developed to overcome the limitations of traditional sensors. Although radio frequency (RF)-based solutions + +![](images/513996b470c38eda760b21067b341f4a698c12f5ecffb7dfbd4a304b9599c6c0.jpg) +Fig. 1: An example of implementing a human pose estimation application using commercial WiFi in the indoor environment. + +have seen extensive adoption [52-54], their potential applications are restricted by hardware constraints, such as the need for a meticulously assembled and synchronized $16 + 4$ T-shaped antenna array, and RF signal limitations, such as the use of frequency modulated continuous wave with a wide signal bandwidth of 1.78 GHz. In contrast, the WiFi-based approach has recently emerged as a promising alternative by leveraging the widespread nature of WiFi signals in practical environments. This approach offers a non-intrusive, privacy-aware solution that mitigates the inherent limitations of traditional methods. The interaction between WiFi signals and the hierarchical structure of the human suggests the feasibility of extracting pose features from diverse WiFi channel state information (CSI) [5], thus enabling HPE tasks. Once WiFi-based approaches achieve reliable performance, they could find widespread implementation in indoor applications, as depicted in Fig. 1. + +However, the implementation of WiFi-based HPE encounters several challenges. In particular, WiFi CSI data often lacks the necessary detail for fine-grained tasks, leading to compromised accuracy in pose estimation due to the intertwining of human motions with environmental factors. Moreover, WiFi signals carry unique fingerprints of both the environment and individuals, making the trained models less effective in other contexts. Additionally, synthesized skeleton movements must mirror natural human movement patterns, requiring continuity and smoothness. Recent research has focused on addressing these challenges through various approaches [20, 32, 41, 44, 55, 56]. The resolution and characteristics of WiFi CSI signals are enhanced by utilizing the multi-antenna technique or increasing the number of subcarriers [41, 50, 56]. Meanwhile, deep neural networks, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with fixed kernels, are developed to capture local features [20, 32, 41, 44] or combined with transformer [39] to obtain global information [55, 56]. However, existing approaches often face a trade-off between performance and computational cost. For instance, the work in [56] is shown to achieve good accuracy but requires high computational complexity (e.g. 26.42 million parameters), whereas [9] exhibits low com + +plexity yet with unreliable performance. These challenges naturally give rise to a question: Is it possible to achieve better performance for WiFi-based HPE tasks, while still guaranteeing a very low computational complexity? + +Our answer is "Yes," by designing a novel multi-model network, namely HPE-Li, to generate the lightweight and efficient human pose estimation from WiFi CSI signals. Inspired by the teacher-student network concept [28], the proposed model comprises two distinct networks: a pre-trained teacher network specialized in pose estimation from RGB images and a student network tasked with making pose predictions from raw WiFi signals under the teacher network's supervision. The student network employs dual selective kernel sub-networks (DSKNet) to efficiently learn key characteristics from WiFi CSI signals without increasing complexity. Within DSKNet, we introduce a novel convolutional architecture, called DSKConv, which incorporates a selective kernel attention (SKA) mechanism to dynamically learn diverse features from multiple kernels across both frequency and channel domains, rather than solely from the channel domain as in regular selective kernel (SK) convolution [25]. Unlike basic CNN, DSKConv adaptively selects optimal kernel sizes for each input through a three-step process: $i$ generating multiple paths with different kernel sizes, $ii$ consolidating multiscale features, and $iii$ using an attention mechanism to determine selection weights. + +In summary, the main contributions of the paper are three-fold: + +1. We introduce a novel HPE-Li system that integrates multi-modal sensors (e.g. Camera and WiFi) to accurately generate the skeleton-based HPE from WiFi CSI signals. +2. We propose DSKNet sub-networks to effectively process WiFi CSI signals for HPE tasks. DSKNet employs multi-view feature extraction from signals received by each antenna, enabling a comprehensive understanding of human posture through the fusion of information from all antennas. +3. We develop a novel DSKConv architecture, which is seamlessly integrated into DSKNet. This architecture serves as a versatile block capable of substituting standard convolutional layers in various models. DSKConv dynamically learns diverse features from multiple kernels without imposing additional computational costs. + +Extensive experiments are conducted on two challenging datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness of HPE-Li. Results confirm the adaptive adjustment of kernel sizes by DSKConv to achieve multiscale features from input data. Comparative analysis showcases the superior accuracy of the HPE-Li model compared to existing approaches, all while maintaining much less complexity. Moreover, experimental results indicate a significant improvement of DSKConv over the state-of-the-art (SOTA) variant CNNs utilizing fixed-size kernels, with only a minimal increase in memory and computational requirements. The source code is available at here for research purposes. + +# 2 Related Work + +HPE task: In the field of computer vision (CV), HPE from 2D images has been extensively studied thanks to powerful deep learning techniques and increasingly annotated datasets produced by regular cameras [4,6,10-12,14,17,30,31,46] and specialized equipment [33, 51]. However, vision-based approaches face several challenges such as poor lighting, occlusion, blurry images and privacy concerns. Despite attempts to address privacy concerns with light-based methods [23, 24], these methods struggle in low-light conditions or with obstacles. Although Li-DAR has been shown to provide high person detection capabilities [26, 45], its cost and power limitations warrant the exploration of alternative, more accessible solutions for daily and household use. The proposed WiFi-based approach overcomes these limitations by ensuring privacy protection and operability regardless of lighting or occlusion. RF-based approaches have emerged as the promising solution to overcome the aforementioned challenges. In particular, RFCapture in [1] can outline human bodies even through walls, while RFPose in [52] and its 3D variant [54] can extract 2D and 3D skeletons from RF signals with the aid of visual data. However, these methods often require advanced hardware and signal conditions, limiting their practical applications. + +WiFi-based HPE: In recent years, WiFi-based sensing methods have attracted significant attention, mainly relying on received signal strength (RSS) and channel state information (CSI). Exploiting the ubiquitous presence of WiFi and the widespread use of smart devices in various environments, Zou et al. [57] introduced an indoor localization system based on RSS, providing a feasible alternative to traditional global positioning systems (GPS). Conversely, WiFi CSI holds promise for enhancing daily activities like activity recognition and health monitoring. However, extracting high-quality data from raw WiFi signals poses a significant challenge compared to other sensing methods. Moreover, the absence of standardized WiFi CSI setup protocols and the scarcity of publicly available datasets, primarily due to cost constraints, impede the comparison and enhancement of HPE tasks. WiPose [20] achieved a good performance in terms of the 3D human pose estimation using dedicated antenna setups and VICON, albeit at a high cost. WiSPPN [41] employed standard WiFi devices with 30 subcarriers, albeit sacrificing pose resolution. Notably, MetaFi++ [56] utilized widely available WiFi devices for HPE to improve the HPE performance. However, the high computational complexity of its WPFormer network hinders its real-time application. In this work, we showcase the effectiveness of the proposed HPE-Li on three critical factors: accessible, high-performance WiFi systems and lightweight neural network models. + +Variants of CNN: The success of CNNs in the CV field has spurred researchers to explore diverse CNN variations, in which the utilization of multi-branch convolution is highlighted as a key aspect [3]. Expanding on this concept, highway networks were introduced in [34] to incorporate bypassing paths to Gat + +![](images/711d7e76fe42819f3c9334ceec601f49a8f7c2c9c4b03c170323b04664437dd2.jpg) +Fig. 2: The proposed DSKConv with two branches consists of the channel-wise selective kernel attention (CwSKA) mechanism (Sec. 3.1) and the frequency-wise selective kernel attention (FwSKA) mechanism (Sec. 3.2). + +ing units that facilitate the training of deep networks with hundreds of layers. ResNet [15] adopted a similar bypassing path strategy to preserve original information. Building upon this, BlockDrop [49] introduced additional identical paths for significant transformations. In contrast, InceptionNet [36-38] developed a new approach by amalgamating multiple branches with customized kernel filters, resulting in the extraction of richer and more diverse features. In a recent advancement, attention mechanisms have been seamlessly integrated within convolutional layers. This approach allows the intelligent merging of information from multiple kernels and enable the creation of effective receptive fields with varying sizes within fusion layers [7, 19, 25, 43, 48]. In this work, rather than directly utilizing multi-branch convolution, we develop a novel convolutional architecture by incorporating a SKA mechanism to effectively learn diverse features from multiple kernels in both frequency and channel domains with a very low complexity. + +# 3 The Proposed HPE-Li Method + +We now discuss the CwSKA mechanism employed in traditional SK convolution [25] and then present the proposed convolution, which integrates both CwSKA and FwSKA to harness channel and frequency domains. Next, we provide insights into the network architecture and learning objectives of the proposed model. + +# 3.1 Traditional SK Convolution + +Let us start by presenting the operation $\mathrm{CwSKA}$ mechanism of traditional SK convolution, as illustrated in Fig. 2. The traditional SK convolution is expressed as follows. For a given $\mathbf{X} \in \mathbb{R}^{C' \times F' \times T'}$ , with $C'$ , $F'$ and $T'$ being the number of channels, height in the frequency domain and width in the time domain, respectively, let the transform $\mathcal{F}_{k_i} \colon \mathbf{X} \to \mathbf{U}_{k_i} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times F \times T}$ be the function that splits the input feature map $\mathbf{X}$ into $N$ branches. Each transformation consists of a sequence of efficiently grouped convolutions [22, 25], that has a pre-defined + +kernel size, denoted as $\{k_i\}_{i = 1}^N$ , batch normalization (BN) [18] and ReLU activation [13]. The group number $G$ introduced in AlexNet [21] divides model parameters and computational load into $G$ parts to better utilize the GPU resource. The SK convolution integrates the grouped convolution and dilated convolution into branches with larger kernel sizes to reduce model overheads [8, 25, 47]. The dilation factor $D$ expands the receptive field, allowing for a broader view of convolutional networks. The dilated convolution offers lower model complexity while capturing more contextual information and achieving faster runtime. + +Incorporating various levels of information into the subsequent stage involves merging $N$ branches through an element-wise summation, i.e. $\mathbf{U} = \sum_{i=1}^{N} \mathbf{U}_{k_i}$ . Subsequently, the 2D global average pooling (GAP) operation encapsulates the global information into the channel-wise feature vector $\mathbf{s}_c \in \mathbb{R}^C$ , $\mathrm{GAP}_{\mathrm{chan}}$ , as follows: + +$$ +\mathbf {s} _ {c} = \operatorname {G A P} _ {\text {c h a n}} (\mathbf {U}) = \frac {1}{H \times W} \sum_ {h = 1} ^ {H} \sum_ {\mathrm {w} = 1} ^ {W} \mathbf {U} (h, w). \tag {1} +$$ + +Subsequently, a fully connected (FC) layer is used to generate a more compact feature map $\mathbf{z}_c\in \mathbb{R}^{d\times 1}$ , which enables the model to perform the SK operation efficiently. During the dimension reduction, the value of $d$ is controlled by a reduction ratio $r$ . The compact feature map $\mathbf{z}_c$ and the reduction ratio $r$ can be computed as + +$$ +\mathbf {z} _ {c} = \operatorname {F C} \left(\mathbf {s} _ {c}\right) = \operatorname {R e L U} \left(\beta \left(\mathbf {W} \mathbf {s} _ {c}\right)\right) \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\beta$ refers to the BN operation, $\mathbf{W} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times d}$ denotes the weight matrix of a FC layer and $d$ is the dimension of $\mathbf{z}_c$ ; Herein, $d = C / r$ with $r$ represents the reduction ratio of the compact feature map $\mathbf{z}_c$ . + +The SK convolution then applies a soft attention mechanism for the compact feature map $\mathbf{z}_c$ passed down from the previous layer, which can guide the model to adaptively extract multiscale information across the channel axis [7, 25, 42]. The softmax attention can focus on the important branches and play a key role in the adaptive kernel selection. The soft attention weights $\mathbf{a}_{k_i} \triangleq [a_{k_i,1}, \dots, a_{k_i,C}]^T \in \mathbb{R}^C$ are calculated via a softmax function $f_s$ as + +$$ +a _ {k i, j} = f _ {\mathrm {s}} (\mathbf {Z} _ {c}) = \frac {\exp (A _ {k i , j} \mathbf {z} _ {c})}{\sum_ {l = 1} ^ {N} \exp (A _ {k l , j} \mathbf {z} _ {c})} \tag {3} +$$ + +where $A_{k_i,j} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ is the $j$ -th row of $\mathbf{A}_{k_i} = [A_{k_i,1}^T, \dots, A_{k_i,C}^T]^T \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times d}$ . Finally, the output features map $\mathbf{V}_c \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times H \times W}$ is computed as the weighted summation over the different branches: + +$$ +V _ {c _ {j}} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} a _ {k _ {i}, j} U _ {k _ {i}, j}, \text {w i t h} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} a _ {k _ {i}, j} = 1 \tag {4} +$$ + +where $V_{c_j}$ and $U_{k_i,j} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W}$ are the $j$ -th components of $\mathbf{V}_c$ and $\mathbf{U}_{k_i}$ , respectively. + +![](images/35966bf79c7dcfe6d4dfbc36ad9819f412432a347973c47b1d24cc360be5331c.jpg) +Fig. 3: The teacher-student network: 1) The CV model acts as the teacher network to produce ground truth from the camera images, and 2) the proposed model (in the dashed rectangle) serves as the student network to predict human pose under the monitoring of the teacher network, as discussed in Sec. 3.3. + +# 3.2 Dual SK Convolution (DSKConv) + +We notice that the conventional SK method is not tailored to HPE tasks since each frame of WiFi-CSI data is also present in both frequency and channel domains (i.e. representing pose information from one specific viewpoint). As a result, the channel-wise recalibration is comprehensively captured. Thus, we introduce an SK convolution-based approach specifically designed to process raw WiFi signals. The proposed DSKConv employs both CwSKA and FwSKA mechanisms to obtain the adaptive kernel in both channel and frequency domains, as shown in Fig. 2. FwSKA utilizes the CwSKA technique similarly, but with a distinction: $\mathbf{s}_f$ represents a frequency-wise feature vector instead of a channel-wise feature vector, which is obtained from the transformation, $\mathrm{GAP}_{\mathrm{freq}}$ , as + +$$ +\mathbf {s} _ {f} = \operatorname {G A P} _ {\mathrm {f r e q}} (\mathbf {U}) = \frac {1}{C \times T} \sum_ {c = 1} ^ {C} \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \mathbf {U} (c, t). \tag {5} +$$ + +The compact feature $\mathbf{z}_f$ , attention weight $\mathbf{a}$ and output feature map $\mathbf{V}_f$ are derived in the same manner with CwSKA. This combination ensures that the different channels and the characteristics of distinctive frequencies are considered when selecting the suitable kernel size for convolution. Finally, we concatenate the output features $\mathbf{V}_{f_i}$ and $\mathbf{V}_{c_i}$ at the $i$ -th branches to generate the output feature $\mathbf{O}$ as + +$$ +\mathbf {O} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \mathbf {V} _ {c _ {i}} + \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \mathbf {V} _ {f _ {i}}. \tag {6} +$$ + +The resulting feature $\mathbf{O}$ contains crucial information extracted from both frequency and channel domains, aligning well with the inherent characteristics of WiFi CSI data. + +# 3.3 Network Architecture + +The teacher-student network architecture [28] is illustrated in Fig. 3. This architecture consists of two separate networks: a pre-trained teacher network for pose + +estimation from RGB images and a student network to generate pose predictions from raw WiFi signals under the guidance of the teacher network. The teacher network utilizes a computer vision model to obtain 2D key points of frames from the multi-views, such as HRNet-w48 [35, 50]. The 2D key points serve as the ground truth $\mathbf{y}$ to estimate human poses from various modalities, including coordinates of pixels $(a,b)$ written as $\mathbf{y} = \{(a_i,b_i)|i\in [1,\dots ,P]\}$ with $P$ being the number of key points. The student network primarily consists of a stack of repeated sub-networks, so-called "DSKNet", to construct the feature transformation network. The features obtained from DSKNet are finally fed into the decoder module to generate key points prediction $\hat{\mathbf{y}} = \{(\hat{a}_i,\hat{b}_i)|i\in [1,\dots ,P]\}$ of the human body. + +DSKConv relies on three essential hyperparameters to dictate the final configuration of SK convolutions. Precisely, the number of branches $N$ decides the variety of kernels, the group number $G$ controls the cardinality of each branch, and the reduction ratio $(r)$ impacts the number of parameters in (2). We elaborate on the impact of these parameters in Sec. 4.3. + +# 3.4 Learning Objective + +We consider the mean-squared error (MSE) between the prediction $\hat{\mathbf{y}}$ and ground truth $\mathbf{y}$ generated by the visual pose estimation model as the loss function, which is given as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {M S E}} = \left\| \hat {\mathbf {y}} - \mathbf {y} \right\| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {7} +$$ + +Rather than employing the pose adjacency matrix [41], we have found that utilizing the MSE loss function yields better performance. This phenomenon is attributed to the granularity of CSI data. Both MM-Fi and WiPose datasets contain abundant subcarriers of CSI data for each antenna pair, resulting in higher-resolution data. As a result, the task can be successfully processed without necessitating a more complex loss function design. + +# 4 Experiment Results + +All experiments are conducted on a computer with an Intel 13-core i9-13900k CPU (3 GHz) and a GeForce RTX 4070.

Each protocol employs two data splitting strategies: $i$ ) Setting 1 (S1-Random Split) randomly divides all video samples into training and testing sets with a ratio of 3:1, and $ii$ ) Setting 2 (S2-Cross-Subject Split) splits the data by subject, allocating 32 subjects for training and 8 for testing. + +WiPose [55] comprises 166k packets, featuring pose annotations with 18 skeleton points and WiFi CSI of 12 different actions (i.e. wave, walk, throw, run, push, pull, jump, crouch, circle, sit down, stand up and bend) performed by 12 volunteers. All WiPose's data are randomly split into training and testing sets. + +To evaluate pose estimation, we consider three key performance metrics, which are the Percentage of Correct Keypoints (PCK), Mean Per Joint Position Error (MPJPE), and Procrustes Analysis MPJPE (PA-MPJPE) in millimeters. The PCK metric evaluates the accuracy of predicted keypoints by calculating the percentage of keypoints correctly localized within a predefined threshold $a$ from their ground truth positions, denoted as $\mathrm{PCK}_a$ . The MPJPE metric calculates the Euclidean distance between the predicted joint positions and ground truth positions, while PA-MPJPE is actually the MPJPE after aligning the predicted results to the ground truth through a procrustes transformation. + +Benchmarks: To showcase the effectiveness of HPE-Li, we conduct a comprehensive comparison with several SOTA models. We will mainly consider MetaFi++ [56] and PerUnet [55], which are shown to achieve the best performance on MM-Fi and WiPose datasets. Additionally, we extend the comparison to include results from previously well-established methods for the HPE task, such as Wi-Pose [20], Wi-Mose [44], WiLDAR [9] and WiSPPN [41]. + +# 4.2 Results and Discussion + +Results on MM-Fi: We begin by evaluating the proposed HPE-Li's performance in the P3-S1 scenario using $\mathrm{PCK}_a$ for each body part. As shown in Table 2, HPE-Li demonstrates reliable overall pose estimation, achieving an average score of $85.12\%$ at $\mathrm{PCK}_{50}$ . Notably, the accuracy of these particular body joints remains around $50\%$ even under more stringent conditions at $\mathrm{PCK}_{20}$ . These insights stem from analyzing MM-Fi activities, focusing primarily on upper body movement, posing challenges, particularly for intense hand movements. + +Table 2: The PCK of effectiveness for each body part on MM-Fi with P3-S1. + +

+ +approximately $69.79\%$ and $82.46\%$ , respectively, underscoring its robust performance on specific body joints. This achievement surpasses that of MM-Fi, attributed to differences in raw signal acquisition methodologies between the two datasets. The WiPose system, with its simpler setup and lower-intensity human activities, yields more reliable accuracy in HPE tasks compared to MM-Fi. + +Comparison with SOTA: Table 6 provides a comparison between HPE-Li and existing HPE approaches. Our method primarily focuses on relative pose accuracy, and it significantly outperforms the SOTA approaches for all evaluation criteria, particularly excelling in the low $\mathrm{PCK}_a$ as well as in MPJPE and PA-MPJPE metrics. These superior results are achieved with remarkably low computational costs. Notably, PerUnet also achieves good performance on both datasets, but with the cost of high complexity, (e.g. approximately 34M parameters). Conversely, our method on MM-Fi dataset has a similar level of complexity with WiLDAR, known as the most lightweight model in human recognition tasks (e.g. about 1.6M parameters). However, HPE-Li demonstrates superior performance, requiring only half the number of FLOPs compared to WiLDAR. + +Qualitative Results: In Fig. 4, we present qualitative results to show visualizations of human skeletons in diverse environments from the MM-Fi dataset. Specifically, we focus on generating 2D poses and then transforming them into 3D poses by adding a constant vector as the third dimension. Our method consistently and reliably generates human poses across daily activities and rehabilitation exercises. + +# 4.3 Ablation Study + +To evaluate the role of each component in HPE-Li, we now conduct ablation experiments on the MM-Fi dataset. + +![](images/8aa993d3f8bc3bffa5039214065a724fc8d816f079f48e11fccf1e347b39a399.jpg) +Fig. 4: Visualization of the human pose landmarks generated by the vision model (red) and WiFi model (blue) on the MM-Fi P3-S1 dataset. + +Table 7: Comparison of the DSKNet with other selective attention mechanisms on the MM-Fi P3-S2 dataset. + +

+ +Impact of DSKConv: We conduct a comparative analysis using models that combine standard CNNs with CNNs incorporating attention mechanisms in cross-subject settings P3-S2. This analysis accounts for differences in frequency information among individuals in the same posture, aiming to demonstrate the ability of these variant CNNs to handle fluctuations in information frequency and signal strength. As seen from Table 7, HPE-Li encompasses various models, including the regular CNN, SENet [16], dynamic convolution (DConv) [7], frequency dynamic convolution (FDConv) [29] and traditional SK convolution (SKConv) [25], which server as benchmarks. SENet calculates kernel attention using global feature information through GAP and two FC layers with softmax activation. In contrast, DConv and FDConv compute attention across multiple kernels of the same size. Performance comparisons consistently demonstrate that SKConv outperforms SENet. However, SKConv exclusively evaluates attention in the channel domain, potentially leading to the loss of critical information. Consequently, DSKConv achieves superior performance compared to SKConv, surpassing $28~\mathrm{mm}$ in the MPJPE metric. Furthermore, a comparison involving DSKConv, DConv and FDConv on MM-Fi reveals that DSKConv achieves more favorable results due to its adaptive receptive field size and diverse feature extraction, outperforming DConv by $36~\mathrm{mm}$ and FDConv by $28~\mathrm{mm}$ in the MPJPE metric. This confirms its ability to perceive contextual information in the frequency and channel domains, thereby facilitating accurate human pose generation. + +Table 9: Performance of the DSKNet with different branches on the MM-Fi P3-S1 dataset. + +

+ +Impact of Dilation and Group: We assess the impact of parameters in the DSKConv block by varying the dilation $D$ and group $G$ values. In Table 8, the term "kernel" denotes the approximate kernel size derived from dilated convolution. The best result, achieving an MPJPE metric of $149.43\mathrm{mm}$ , is obtained with $3\times 3$ kernel, $D = 2$ , and $G = 32$ . The second-best result is $149.71\mathrm{mm}$ with $5\times 5$ kernel, $D = 1$ , and $G = 32$ . These findings highlight the advantage of employing different kernel sizes to facilitate the aggregation of multiscale features. Furthermore, the results also suggest that utilizing the same kernel size in both branches may compromise outcomes. Comparing the two optimal configurations, namely the $5\times 5$ kernel, $D = 1$ and the $3\times 3$ kernel, $D = 2$ , the latter exhibits slightly lower model complexity. Despite sharing the same receptive field, the smaller kernel with various dilations demonstrates significant performance and model complexity compared to the larger kernel without dilation. + +Impact of Number Branches: We show the impact of the number of branches by incorporating two or more kernels (e.g. larger than $3 \times 3$ ). Due to limitations in the search space, we focus on a scenario with five branches, employing kernel sizes of $\mathrm{K}_1$ ( $3 \times 3$ ), $\mathrm{K}_2$ ( $5 \times 5$ ), $\mathrm{K}_3$ ( $7 \times 7$ ), $\mathrm{K}_4$ ( $9 \times 9$ ) and $\mathrm{K}_5$ ( $11 \times 11$ ). Dilated convolution is employed for larger kernels, where $G$ is set to 32. Table 9 illustrates that performance initially increases and then decreases with an increase in the number of branches, $N$ . The one-branch case ( $N = 1$ ) yields the poorest results. Through the utilization of multiple kernels, the spatial kernel achieves favorable outcomes by adaptively selecting among various branches. The optimal outcome is $149.43 \mathrm{~mm}$ with $N = 4$ , while the second-best result is $149.48 \mathrm{~mm}$ associated with $N = 3$ . The performance gap from $N = 3$ to $N = 4$ is negligible. When $N = 5$ the accuracy quickly decreases to $150.21 \mathrm{~mm}$ . To strike a balance between accuracy and performance, the case with $N = 3$ is preferable. Additionally, the dimension of the compact feature map (i.e. Eq. (2)) can be modified by $r$ . Results in Table 10, with different $r$ values, $N = 4$ and $G = 32$ , show that accuracy does not monotonically decrease with an increase in $r$ . The optimal performance is observed at $r = 32$ to balance between accuracy and overfitting due to channel interdependencies during training. + +![](images/84f8714882eb47874009b64b51893a7283b9eb17f546283fb253dc5a5b89694c.jpg) + +![](images/1e977520f145dd323a7797af06c46a05eb83f0d19696603797c36d1a0766a4bb.jpg) +(a) The MPJPE accuracy under the impact of noises. + +![](images/27fe3f78ff583ff9ffeb25215aa1d0c481ead7015e00b4082f4c2d0328df41ef.jpg) + +![](images/ee8fca5283c3264ba2519e8eab846bd7bd64b9924e5ea272d1132ebf6c59e754.jpg) + +![](images/7cfe9958b6832158769d461ad0a342d13959a779bfc896801ca5e41258a46a14.jpg) +Fig. 5: Impact of noise on the proposed HPE-Li model with MM-Fi P3-S1 dataset. + +![](images/c405c3d5add9b3b6f4616711af0f1a5817af7dce572eea137453840b2af27030.jpg) +(b) Visualization of the human pose landmarks under the impact of noise (AWGN with $\sigma_e^2 = 0.4$ and SPN with $\eta = 2.5$ ). + +# 4.4 Limitation + +WiFi signals are susceptible to noise, interference, and multipath propagation, resulting in signal strength and quality fluctuations. To evaluate its impact, we consider two common types of noise: Additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) characterized by a zero-mean and variance of $\sigma_e^2$ and Salt and Pepper Noise (SPN) with a noise level of $\eta$ . These noises emulate the natural randomness encountered in real-world scenarios. To tackle this limitation, we integrate two denoising methods, namely Uniform and Median filters, into HPE-Li without changing the network architecture. The MPJPE accuracy of HPE-Li is depicted in Fig. 5a. As seen, the MPJPE accuracy is decreased when increasing $\sigma_e^2$ and $\eta$ . However, the results remain reliable when employing filter methods, as illustrated in Fig. 5b. Future endeavors will focus on developing a robust model, possibly incorporating a stacked autoencoder [40]. + +# 5 Conclusions + +We have introduced HPE-Li, a multi-model network designed to predict human pose landmarks by interpreting raw WiFi signals. Our method has attained state-of-the-art accuracy while upholding a lightweight model architecture, boasting significantly fewer parameters compared to its counterparts in the literature. Through validation on the MM-Fi and WiPose datasets, we have demonstrated the robustness and generalizability of HPE-Li across diverse and challenging scenarios. These achievements pave the way for the practical deployment of our application, aimed at enhancing the daily lives of individuals. + +Acknowledgement.

We then develop an efficient deep neural network to process raw WiFi signals. Our model incorporates a distinctive multi-branch convolutional neural network (CNN) empowered by a selective kernel attention (SKA) mechanism. Unlike standard CNNs with fixed receptive fields, the SKA mechanism is capable of dynamically adjusting kernel sizes according to input data characteristics, enhancing adaptability without increasing complexity.

In contrast, the WiFi-based approach has recently emerged as a promising alternative by leveraging the widespread nature of WiFi signals in practical environments. This approach offers a non-intrusive, privacy-aware solution that mitigates the inherent limitations of traditional methods. The interaction between WiFi signals and the hierarchical structure of the human suggests the feasibility of extracting pose features from diverse WiFi channel state information (CSI) [5], thus enabling HPE tasks. Once WiFi-based approaches achieve reliable performance, they could find widespread implementation in indoor applications, as depicted in Fig. 1." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 462, + 482, + 668 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 462, + 482, + 668 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 462, + 482, + 668 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "However, the implementation of WiFi-based HPE encounters several challenges. In particular, WiFi CSI data often lacks the necessary detail for fine-grained tasks, leading to compromised accuracy in pose estimation due to the intertwining of human motions with environmental factors. Moreover, WiFi signals carry unique fingerprints of both the environment and individuals, making the trained models less effective in other contexts. Additionally, synthesized skeleton movements must mirror natural human movement patterns, requiring continuity and smoothness. Recent research has focused on addressing these challenges through various approaches [20, 32, 41, 44, 55, 56]. The resolution and characteristics of WiFi CSI signals are enhanced by utilizing the multi-antenna technique or increasing the number of subcarriers [41, 50, 56].

Inspired by the teacher-student network concept [28], the proposed model comprises two distinct networks: a pre-trained teacher network specialized in pose estimation from RGB images and a student network tasked with making pose predictions from raw WiFi signals under the teacher network's supervision. The student network employs dual selective kernel sub-networks (DSKNet) to efficiently learn key characteristics from WiFi CSI signals without increasing complexity. Within DSKNet, we introduce a novel convolutional architecture, called DSKConv, which incorporates a selective kernel attention (SKA) mechanism to dynamically learn diverse features from multiple kernels across both frequency and channel domains, rather than solely from the channel domain as in regular selective kernel (SK) convolution [25].

However, vision-based approaches face several challenges such as poor lighting, occlusion, blurry images and privacy concerns. Despite attempts to address privacy concerns with light-based methods [23, 24], these methods struggle in low-light conditions or with obstacles. Although Li-DAR has been shown to provide high person detection capabilities [26, 45], its cost and power limitations warrant the exploration of alternative, more accessible solutions for daily and household use. The proposed WiFi-based approach overcomes these limitations by ensuring privacy protection and operability regardless of lighting or occlusion. RF-based approaches have emerged as the promising solution to overcome the aforementioned challenges. In particular, RFCapture in [1] can outline human bodies even through walls, while RFPose in [52] and its 3D variant [54] can extract 2D and 3D skeletons from RF signals with the aid of visual data.

Conversely, WiFi CSI holds promise for enhancing daily activities like activity recognition and health monitoring. However, extracting high-quality data from raw WiFi signals poses a significant challenge compared to other sensing methods. Moreover, the absence of standardized WiFi CSI setup protocols and the scarcity of publicly available datasets, primarily due to cost constraints, impede the comparison and enhancement of HPE tasks. WiPose [20] achieved a good performance in terms of the 3D human pose estimation using dedicated antenna setups and VICON, albeit at a high cost. WiSPPN [41] employed standard WiFi devices with 30 subcarriers, albeit sacrificing pose resolution.

As seen from Table 7, HPE-Li encompasses various models, including the regular CNN, SENet [16], dynamic convolution (DConv) [7], frequency dynamic convolution (FDConv) [29] and traditional SK convolution (SKConv) [25], which server as benchmarks. SENet calculates kernel attention using global feature information through GAP and two FC layers with softmax activation. In contrast, DConv and FDConv compute attention across multiple kernels of the same size. Performance comparisons consistently demonstrate that SKConv outperforms SENet.

Traditional deep learning relies on end-to-end backpropagation for training, but it suffers from drawbacks such as high memory consumption and not aligning with biological neural networks. Recent advancements have introduced locally supervised learning, which divides networks into modules with isolated gradients and trains them locally. However, this approach can lead to performance lag due to limited interaction between these modules, and the design of auxiliary networks occupies a certain amount of GPU memory. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel model called HPFF that performs hierarchical locally supervised learning and patch-level feature computation on the auxiliary networks. Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo) enables the network to learn features at different granularity levels along their respective local paths. Specifically, the network is divided into two-level local modules: independent local modules and cascade local modules. The cascade local modules combine two adjacent independent local modules, incorporating both updates within the modules themselves and information exchange between adjacent modules. Patch Feature Fusion (PFF) reduces GPU memory usage by splitting the input features of the auxiliary networks into patches for computation. By averaging these patch-level features, it enhances the network's ability to focus more on those patterns that are prevalent across multiple patches. Furthermore, our method exhibits strong generalization capabilities and can be seamlessly integrated with existing techniques. We conduct experiments on CIFAR-10, STL-10, SVHN, and ImageNet datasets, and the results demonstrate that our proposed HPFF significantly outperforms previous approaches, consistently achieving state-of-the-art performance across different datasets.

Despite its advantages, such as alleviating the update locking problem, local learning is criticized for potentially over-focusing on local objectives, leading to suboptimal global performance due to local optima [2, 3].

Decoupled Neural Interfaces (DNI) [14] avoid global gradient propagation by designing auxiliary networks to generate synthetic gradients.

Traditional deep learning relies on end-to-end backpropagation for training, but it suffers from drawbacks such as high memory consumption and not aligning with biological neural networks. Recent advancements have introduced locally supervised learning, which divides networks into modules with isolated gradients and trains them locally. However, this approach can lead to performance lag due to limited interaction between these modules, and the design of auxiliary networks occupies a certain amount of GPU memory. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel model called HPFF that performs hierarchical locally supervised learning and patch-level feature computation on the auxiliary networks. Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo) enables the network to learn features at different granularity levels along their respective local paths. Specifically, the network is divided into two-level local modules: independent local modules and cascade local modules. The cascade local modules combine two adjacent independent local modules, incorporating both updates within the modules themselves and information exchange between adjacent modules. Patch Feature Fusion (PFF) reduces GPU memory usage by splitting the input features of the auxiliary networks into patches for computation.

Upon integrating our method, we notice a significant decrease in the accuracy of the early layers, until reaching the latter layers, where the accuracy experiences a substantial increase, far exceeding the original method.

Traditional deep learning relies on end-to-end backpropagation for training, but it suffers from drawbacks such as high memory consumption and not aligning with biological neural networks. Recent advancements have introduced locally supervised learning, which divides networks into modules with isolated gradients and trains them locally. However, this approach can lead to performance lag due to limited interaction between these modules, and the design of auxiliary networks occupies a certain amount of GPU memory. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel model called HPFF that performs hierarchical locally supervised learning and patch-level feature computation on the auxiliary networks. Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo) enables the network to learn features at different granularity levels along their respective local paths. Specifically, the network is divided into two-level local modules: independent local modules and cascade local modules. The cascade local modules combine two adjacent independent local modules, incorporating both updates within the modules themselves and information exchange between adjacent modules. Patch Feature Fusion (PFF) reduces GPU memory usage by splitting the input features of the auxiliary networks into patches for computation. By averaging these patch-level features, it enhances the network's ability to focus more on those patterns that are prevalent across multiple patches. Furthermore, our method exhibits strong generalization capabilities and can be seamlessly integrated with existing techniques. We conduct experiments on CIFAR-10, STL-10, SVHN, and ImageNet datasets, and the results demonstrate that our proposed HPFF significantly outperforms previous approaches, consistently achieving state-of-the-art performance across different datasets.

The * means addition of our HPFF. + +# 1 Introduction + +Deep learning frameworks, such as those detailed in [10,19,21,32], predominantly employ end-to-end backpropagation [33] for their learning processes. Despite its notable success in the realm of deep learning, it still faces several limitations. On one hand, BP presents biological implausibility [5, 35], as it relies on a global objective optimized by backpropagating error signals across layers. On the other hand, the end-to-end backpropagation process introduces the update locking problem [14], where hidden layer parameters cannot be updated until both forward and backward computations are completed, hindering efficient parallelization of the training process. + +Addressing the shortcomings of backpropagation, local learning has been proposed as an alternative that divides a network into separate local modules, training each with a gradient-isolated auxiliary network to independently optimize parameters, thus avoiding the backpropagation of error signals between local modules and facilitating efficient parallelization with reduced memory usage [2, 3, 13, 28, 31, 38]. Despite its advantages, such as alleviating the update locking problem, local learning is criticized for potentially over-focusing on local objectives, leading to suboptimal global performance due to local optima [2, 3]. Furthermore, due to the design of auxiliary networks, the computation process often also leads to an increase in GPU memory usage. Efforts to refine local learning, like InfoPro's refined loss function [38], seek to preserve globally beneficial features, yet challenges persist with insufficient layer interaction in larger networks, often resulting in disappointing performance when scaling to networks with numerous independently optimized layers [2, 31, 38]. + +In this paper, we introduce Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo) with Patch Feature Fusion (PFF). The HiLo addresses the limitations of traditional supervised local learning by employing a two-level architecture with shared weights across modules. Each level, structurally identical but operating at different granularities, generates unique losses via distinct auxiliary networks. These losses are then weighted and aggregated to update the network modules concurrently, enabling the learning of diverse characteristics that compensate for each other's deficiencies. Specifically, the cascade auxiliary network can promote information sharing to capture global features, while the independent auxiliary network is more focused on acquiring local features. We demonstrate through subsequent experiments that the independent level and cascade level complement each other. PFF divides the features within auxiliary networks into patches for computation which significantly reduces the burden on GPU memory. And by averaging and fusing features from different patches, it learns a more generalized feature representation. This method enables the network to focus on patterns that are prevalent across multiple patches. + +The contributions of this paper are summarized as follows: + +- We propose HPFF: Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning with Patch Feature Fusion. HPFF promoting information exchange between local modules enhances the network's ability to capture details and addresses the short-sightedness problem inherent in traditional supervised local learning methods. Simultaneously, it significantly reduces the GPU memory occupation by auxiliary networks, further achieving savings in computational resources. +- HPFF serves as a versatile, plug-and-play approach within the domain of supervised local learning, applicable across various local learning methods. +- HPFF significantly boosts supervised local learning efficacy which can be seen in Fig. 1, achieving state-of-the-art results with notable GPU memory savings relative to end-to-end techniques. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Local Learning + +Local learning has been proposed in recent years as an alternative training method to overcome the limitations of End-to-End (E2E) training. It primarily focuses on learning and updating parameters in gradient-isolated local modules, rather than using global error signals as in global backpropagation [34]. Supervised local learning primarily enhances the learning ability of hidden layers in local modules through some handcrafted auxiliary networks [2, 38], as well as some ingeniously designed local losses [31, 38] to retain as many global features as possible, which is beneficial for subsequent local module learning. However, the performance of these methods is relatively ordinary, with a significant gap compared to BP. In addition to supervised local learning, some works use self-supervised loss in local learning [13]. For instance, Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC) loss is used in Greedy InfoMax (GIM) [26], SimCLR loss is used in Local + +Contrastive learning (LoCo) [40], and Barlow Twins loss is used in Blockwise Self-Supervised Learning (Block-SSL) [36]. These methods use self-supervised loss to ensure that a large number of features will not be easily lost when propagating between local modules. However, these methods only work when the network is divided into a small number of local modules, resulting in memory consumption that does not have a significant advantage over BP. The performance when the network is divided into a larger number of local modules remains to be verified. Another recent work [15] has studied local Hebbian learning, but its performance on large datasets like ImageNet [7] is disappointing. + +# 2.2 Alternatives of backpropagation + +In recent years, alternative training methods to BP have been widely researched [24]. Target propagation methods [1,20,22] attempt to directly propagate targets during training and use local reconstruction targets to construct special backward connections to avoid BP. On the other hand, feedback alignment [23, 30] directly propagates the global error signal to each hidden layer to directly update their weights. Decoupled Neural Interfaces (DNI) [14] avoid global gradient propagation by designing auxiliary networks to generate synthetic gradients. Some recent works [6,32] have proposed replacing backpropagation entirely with forward gradient learning. Additionally, some methods [11, 12] solve the update locking problem of BP and achieve parallel training by using stored previous gradients to replace current gradients for updating network parameters. However, these methods are fundamentally different from our approach of training networks with local objectives. They mostly still rely on global objectives, lack biological plausibility, and face challenges in performance on large-scale datasets [7]. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +To commence, we provide an overview of the conventional end-to-end BP supervised learning paradigm and the backpropagation mechanism for contextual clarity. Suppose $x$ and $y$ denote a data sample and its corresponding ground-truth label, respectively. We represent $f_{\theta}$ as a network furnished with its parameters $\theta$ and its forward calculation designated as $f(\cdot)$ . This deep network can be compartmentalized into multiple local modules. + +During a forward pass, the output from the j-th module acts as the input for the subsequent $(\mathrm{j} + 1)$ -th module, which we denote as $x_{j + 1} = f_{\theta_j}(x_j)$ . The loss function $\mathcal{L}(\hat{y},y)$ is computed by contrasting the output of the final module with the ground-truth label, after which the computed loss is iteratively backpropagated to preceding modules. + +Existing local learning methodologies [2,31,38] have augmented learning proficiencies through a straightforward partitioning of the network into modules, coupled with the design of an auxiliary network for each module. The output of + +![](images/17cf370fb7ff07d59acc46d43e2388d52a298186b8b61be6a4ddd8d74c542f36.jpg) +(a) E2E training +Fig. 2: The HPFF overall architecture.

The employment of auxiliary networks imparts each local module with gradient-isolation, thereby enabling updates via local supervision in lieu of global backpropagation. + +# 3.2 Hierarchical Local Modules + +Current supervised local learning methods exhibit certain limitations. Specifically, these methods operate such that each gradient-isolated local module updates independently using an auxiliary network. This approach can lead to short-sightedness due to the lack of global error signal integration. Such shortcomings may cause individual modules to settle into local optima, which, while beneficial for the module itself, may adversely impact the overall network performance. + +Furthermore, the absence of inter-module coordination can lead to inefficiencies and sub-optimal results. To address these issues, we propose Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo), a method that facilitates communication between modules. + +Within our hierarchical structure, we segregate the entire network into two levels of local modules: independent and cascade levels, as illustrated in Fig. 2. Notably, every local module serves as an independent module while simultaneously being part of a cascade module. An auxiliary network is attached to each independent or cascade module. + +We posit that each cascade module encapsulates $k(k > 1)$ local modules, where local modules contained within adjacent cascade modules intersect. Specifically, the first cascade module consists of $f_{\theta_1}, \ldots, f_{\theta_k}$ , the second cascade module includes $f_{\theta_2}, \ldots, f_{\theta_{k+1}}$ , and so forth. For the j-th local module $f_{\theta_j}$ , it receives supervision from one independent auxiliary network $g_{\gamma_j}$ and k cascade auxiliary networks $h_{\beta_i}, \ldots, h_{\beta_{i+k-1}}$ , where $i = j-k+1$ . The j-th independent auxiliary network processes the output of the j-th local module, denoted as $\hat{y}_j = g_{\gamma_j}(x_{j+1})$ . The i-th cascade auxiliary network processes the output of the (i+k-1)-th local module, which is the final module within the i-th cascade module, denoted as $\hat{y}_i = h_{\beta_i}(x_{i+k})$ . In this scheme, local supervision of a particular local module occurs $k+1$ times, once from $\mathcal{L}(\hat{y}_j, y)$ and k times from $\mathcal{L}(\hat{y}_i, y), \ldots, \mathcal{L}(\hat{y}_{i+k-1}, y)$ . + +The update rule follows: + +$$ +\gamma_ {j} \leftarrow \gamma_ {j} - \eta_ {d} \times \nabla_ {\gamma_ {j}} \mathcal {L} (\hat {y} _ {j}, y) \tag {3} +$$ + +$$ +\beta_ {i} \leftarrow \beta_ {i} - \eta_ {c} \times \nabla_ {\beta_ {i}} \mathcal {L} (\hat {y} _ {i}, y) \tag {4} +$$ + +$$ +\theta_ {j} \leftarrow \theta_ {j} - \eta_ {d} \times \nabla_ {\theta_ {j}} \mathcal {L} (\hat {y _ {j}}, y) - \sum_ {n = i} ^ {i + k - 1} \left(\eta_ {c} \times \nabla_ {\theta_ {j}} \mathcal {L} (\hat {y _ {n}}, y)\right) \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\eta_d, \eta_c$ are the learning rates of the independent and cascade auxiliary networks. In (5), the first term of the gradient descent represents supervision from the independent auxiliary network, while the latter represents supervision from the cascade auxiliary networks. + +In practice, we set $k = 2$ , indicating that supervision from a cascade auxiliary network impacts two consecutive local modules. If $k$ is set too large, the training method will be very close to BP, and this will significantly increase the GPU memory usage. Moreover, the same local module will receive local supervision more times, significantly increasing the risk of overfitting. + +# 3.3 Patch Feature Fusion for Auxiliary Network + +Conventional supervised local learning habitually computes by feeding the entire feature input into an auxiliary network. Such a crude training method may not only cause the model to overlook fine-grained features that are crucial for specific tasks, leading to suboptimal final performance, but also significantly increase the + +GPU memory occupation by auxiliary networks due to overly large features. To mitigate these challenges, we introduce Patch Feature Fusion (PFF), a strategy designed to enhance computation efficiency by segmenting the input features for the auxiliary network into patches, which are subsequently fused. + +To be specific, in the j-th gradient-isolated local module, Patch Feature Fusion segregates the input features $x_{j+1}$ into $n \times n$ patches for processing by the j-th auxiliary network $g_{\gamma_j}$ , the feature $x_{j+1}$ can be cut as: + +$$ +x _ {j + 1} = \left\{x _ {j + 1} ^ {(k, l)}: 1 \leq k \leq n, 1 \leq l \leq n \right\} \tag {6} +$$ + +By partitioning $x_{j+1}$ , we can calculate the local supervision signal $\hat{y}_j$ for the j-th auxiliary network as: + +$$ +\hat {y} _ {j} = \frac {\sum_ {k = 1} ^ {n} \sum_ {l = 1} ^ {n} g _ {\gamma_ {j}} \left(x _ {j + 1} ^ {(k , l)}\right)}{n ^ {2}} \tag {7} +$$ + +Upon obtaining the local supervision signal $\hat{y}_j$ , we can then update the parameters for the auxiliary network and the main network of the $j$ -th local module by calculating $\mathcal{L}(\hat{y}_j, y)$ , as shown in (3), (4), (5). + +In our specific experiments, we set $n$ to 2 to ensure a balance between GPU memory reduction and performance. + +Table 1: Comparison of supervised local learning methods and BP on image classification datasets.

+ +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Experimental Setup + +We conduct experiments on four widely-used datasets: CIFAR-10 [18], SVHN [29], STL-10 [4], and ImageNet [7], utilizing ResNets [9] of varying depths as our network architectures. + +In our research, we combine HPFF with three advanced methods to verify its performance: PredSim [31], DGL [2], and InfoPro [38]. Initially, each network is divided into K local modules, each consisting of an approximately equal number of layers, along with corresponding auxiliary networks. Our proposed HPFF is applied in the training process of the first (K-1) modules, while the last module is directly connected to the global pooling layer and the fully connected layer to output the classification results. These configurations are then benchmarked against global BP and original supervised local learning methods to ensure the removal of confounding variables for a more scientific and reasonable experiment. + +# 4.2 Implement Detail + +In our experiments with ResNet-32 [9] and ResNet-110 [9] on CIFAR-10 [18], SVHN [29], and STL-10 [4] datasets, we utilize the SGD optimizer [16] with Nesterov momentum [8] set at 0.9 and an L2 weight decay factor of 1e-4. When we utilize ResNet-32 as the backbone network, we partition it into 8 and 16 modules. Similarly, when employing ResNet-110 as the backbone, we segment the network into 32 and 55 modules. Each local module's auxiliary network possesses its own distinct parameters. + +Additionally, we use different hyperparameters on different datasets. We employ batch sizes of 1024 for CIFAR-10 and SVHN and 128 for STL-10. The training duration spans 400 epochs, starting with initial learning rates of 0.8 for CIFAR-10 / SVHN and 0.1 for STL-10, following a cosine annealing scheduler [25]. In our ImageNet [7] experiments, we follow different training settings for various architectures. VGG13 [37] is trained for 90 epochs with an initial learning rate of 0.025. For ResNet-101 [9], ResNet-152 [9], and ResNeXt-101, $32 \times 8\mathrm{d}$ [39], we train them for 90 epochs as well, with initial learning rates of 0.05, 0.05, and 0.025, respectively. Batch sizes are set to 64 for VGG13 [37], 128 for ResNet-101 and ResNet-152, and 64 for ResNeXt-101, $32 \times 8\mathrm{d}$ . + +# 4.3 Comparison with the SOTA results + +Results on various image classification benchmarks: We first conduct experiments on CIFAR-10 [18], STL-10 [4], and SVHN [29] to verify the performance of HPFF. The experimental results are shown in Table 1. It can be seen that the enhancement effect of our proposed HPFF is very obvious in all kinds of datasets and different methods, exceeding the original methods. + +Experimental results on the CIFAR-10 dataset show that the more local modules the network is divided into, the more obvious the improvement brought + +by our method. For example, in the case of ResNet-32 ( $K = 16$ ), where each hidden layer is considered as a local module, HPFF can reduce the test error of PredSim, DGL, and InfoPro from 22.71, 14.08, 12.93 to 15.74, 8.94, 8.99. When using a deeper network, ResNet-110 ( $K = 55$ ), HPFF still brings a performance improvement of $25\%$ , $39\%$ , and $32\%$ for PredSim, DGL, and InfoPro respectively. Through these experimental results, we can see the universality of our HPFF. Its improvement on network performance is not limited by the depth of the network and the method. + +When the experiments are extended to other datasets, HPFF still demonstrates strong performance. On the STL-10 dataset, the performance improvements brought by HPFF for PredSim, DGL, and InfoPro are more than $5\%$ , $17\%$ , and $18\%$ . On the SVHN dataset, the corresponding performance improvements are all over $17\%$ , $28\%$ , and $20\%$ . These experiments demonstrate the astonishing performance of HPFF. Even when every hidden layer of the network is treated as a gradient-isolated local module, HPFF can greatly bridge the performance gap that exists between current supervised local learning methods and BP. + +Table 2: Results on the validation set of ImageNet. + +

When we use VGG13 [37] as the backbone for the experiment, and treat every hidden layer as a local module for training, as can be seen from Table 2, there is a huge performance gap between DGL [2] and BP. Such disappointing performance makes it impossible to achieve effective training on large-scale datasets.

Such a significant performance improvement allows the network to surpass BP in performance even when it is divided into 4 local modules. + +Memory Consumption: Owing to the characteristic that gradients do not propagate between local modules, local learning can effectuate significant savings in GPU memory during the training phase. We have investigated the GPU memory usage of the three methodologies with the addition of HPFF on the CIFAR-10 [18] and ImageNet [7] datasets. Results are depicted in Table 3. + +On the CIFAR-10 dataset, when PredSim [31], DGL [2], and InfoPro [38] added HPFF, the GPU memory usage of ResNet-32 ( $K = 16$ ) compared to BP decrease by $33.2\%$ , $31.5\%$ , and $43.3\%$ . When extended to the deeper network ResNet-110 ( $K = 55$ ), the reduction in GPU memory becomes more pronounced, reaching $73.7\%$ , $74.3\%$ , and $79.5\%$ . In the GPU memory test on the ImageNet, with the incorporation of HPFF into InfoPro, the GPU memory usage of ResNet-101, ResNet-152, and ResNeXt, $32 \times 8d$ compared to BP decrease by $19.5\%$ , $20.9\%$ , and $19.8\%$ respectively. This means that we have achieved higher performance with less GPU memory than BP. + +# 4.4 Ablation Study + +Comparison between Independent Level, Cascade Level, and HiLo: To further elucidate the differences between Independent and Cascade Levels in the context of feature learning, we employ t-SNE visualizations [27].

It is evident that HiLo effectively differentiates between target and non-target classes. Furthermore, the distances between data points within the same class are significantly smaller.

Consequently, HiLo not only accurately distinguishes between different categories but also captures subtle intra-class differences more effectively. This robust capability further reduces the test error to 9.44. + +By analyzing the t-SNE visualizations of these three methods, we demonstrate that local and global feature learning can indeed complement each other. + +![](images/1937d39cc243735457621a54a4bf37f170306c4a6dc8b06051cfb2d6d088e00a.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparison of layer-wise linear separability across different learning rules on ResNet-32 and ResNet-110. + +![](images/2025999e9fe8258d723356170ab29cd76bd40375f0be8568191c70dce7366fad.jpg) + +![](images/882beda4d8783cf549d63cd76f82ca5b045315aecc6492df8d6d4b1d3c6c2610.jpg) +Fig. 5: Comparison of layer-wise representation similarity.

Fig. 4 depicts this situation, where we use DGL [2] as a baseline for comparison. Upon integrating our method, we notice a significant decrease in the accuracy of the early layers, until reaching the latter layers, where the accuracy experiences a substantial increase, far exceeding the original method. We posit that high classification accuracy in early layers may not be beneficial from a global perspective. If early layers are overly focused on optimizing local objectives, they may discard certain useful features for subsequent layers. This leads to less effective information being learned by the later layers, thus resulting in suboptimal performance of the entire network. After incorporating HiLo, the classification accuracy of the early layers significantly + +decreases because it retains more features beneficial to the global objective, thereby enhancing the generalization capability of subsequent layers. + +Representation Similarity Analysis of HiLo: We conduct a CKA [17] experiment to demonstrate the effectiveness of HiLo. Using DGL [2] as the baseline, we added HiLo and calculated the CKA similarity of each layer with BP [34] across different methods, then averaged the results. As shown in Fig. 5, our method significantly enhances the CKA similarity of DGL, especially in the early layers. High CKA similarity in the early layers indicates a learning mode similar to BP, which helps in learning features beneficial to the global objective. The poor performance of the original method is due to the early layers focusing too much on local optimization objectives, leading to significant differences from BP and resulting in a decline in overall performance. The CKA experiment validates that HiLo successfully addresses the issues of limited information interaction and shortsightedness inherent in current supervised local learning methods. + +Table 5: Comparison between different methods in terms of test error and GPU memory usage. + +

+ +Performance Analysis of Patch Feature Fusion: To verify the reasons for the performance improvement brought by PFF as indicated in Table 4, we conduct a visualization of the features, as shown in Fig. 6. It can be observed that after adding PFF, there are more activated areas on the feature maps, indicating that the network has learned more detailed features. This demonstrates that Patch Feature Fusion (PFF), by dividing the input features into smaller patches, enables the network to concentrate on patterns that are recurrent across numerous patches, thereby further enhancing the network's performance. + +Table 5 illustrates that PFF significantly reduces the GPU memory usage of networks incorporating the HiLo method, resulting in even lower GPU memory consumption than the original method. To understand this phenomenon, we analyze the computational complexity. Assuming we possess an input feature $x$ with dimension $D$ ( $D = C \times H \times W$ ). The auxiliary network $f(\cdot)$ is an $L$ -layer network with $P$ parameters. In conventional supervised local learning methods, the entirety of $x$ is processed through network $f(\cdot)$ in a single pass. This results in memory consumption that includes the storage of $x$ ( $O(D)$ ), the storage of the auxiliary network ( $O(P)$ ), and the storage of parameters for approximations of $x$ in each layer ( $O(L \times D)$ ). Consequently, the total memory usage amounts to $O(D + P + L \times D)$ . When employing PFF, the storage requirement for a + +![](images/b8dc44aee322c8ea1ff42bb7976440edaf909abe066ba46abb367b6de378827b.jpg) +(a) + +![](images/9dee66b16450adc229d5d20faeb4d7db6f652a328c49cb674d6e667269200b11.jpg) +(b) +Fig. 6: Feature visualization comparison, (a) and (c) are InfoPro with Patch Feature Fusion, while (b) and (d) are the original InfoPro.

Since the auxiliary network $f(\cdot)$ parameters are shared for each patch, their storage remains $O(P)$ . The storage of features in the intermediate layers is reduced to $O\left(L \times \frac{D}{n^2}\right)$ . Thus, the GPU memory requirement for processing a single patch is reduced to $O\left(\frac{D}{n^2} + P + L \times \frac{D}{n^2}\right)$ . As only one patch is processed at any given moment, the overall GPU memory requirement is primarily dictated by the demands of the currently processed patch and does not increase with the number of patches. + +# 5 Conclusion + +This paper introduces HPFF: a novel approach that segments the network into independent and cascade levels and divides the features in the auxiliary networks into patches for computation. HiLo enables information exchange between gradient-isolated local modules, mitigating the shortsightedness issue in supervised local learning. Concurrently, PFF enhances the network's ability to capture universal features by segmenting the features in the auxiliary networks into patches, thereby conserving GPU memory. These two methods complement each other. HPFF can be seamlessly integrated into existing methods and bridging the performance gap between supervised local learning methods and BP. We validate the effectiveness of our approach across various network architectures and image classification datasets, demonstrating that our method achieves performance comparable to BP while significantly reducing GPU memory usage. + +Limitations and Future Work: Despite the superior performance of our proposed HPFF, the method still relies on backpropagation for loss calculation. As suggested in [6] and [32], methods that eliminate the need for backpropagation entirely show promise and represent one aspect of potential future exploration. + +# Acknowledgement + +This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (52278154), the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu (BK20231429), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (2242024RCB0008), and assist from the program of Zhishan Young Scholar of Southeast University. + +# References + +1.

Traditional deep learning relies on end-to-end backpropagation for training, but it suffers from drawbacks such as high memory consumption and not aligning with biological neural networks. Recent advancements have introduced locally supervised learning, which divides networks into modules with isolated gradients and trains them locally. However, this approach can lead to performance lag due to limited interaction between these modules, and the design of auxiliary networks occupies a certain amount of GPU memory. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel model called HPFF that performs hierarchical locally supervised learning and patch-level feature computation on the auxiliary networks. Hierarchical Locally Supervised Learning (HiLo) enables the network to learn features at different granularity levels along their respective local paths. Specifically, the network is divided into two-level local modules: independent local modules and cascade local modules. The cascade local modules combine two adjacent independent local modules, incorporating both updates within the modules themselves and information exchange between adjacent modules. Patch Feature Fusion (PFF) reduces GPU memory usage by splitting the input features of the auxiliary networks into patches for computation. By averaging these patch-level features, it enhances the network's ability to focus more on those patterns that are prevalent across multiple patches. Furthermore, our method exhibits strong generalization capabilities and can be seamlessly integrated with existing techniques. We conduct experiments on CIFAR-10, STL-10, SVHN, and ImageNet datasets, and the results demonstrate that our proposed HPFF significantly outperforms previous approaches, consistently achieving state-of-the-art performance across different datasets.

These two methods complement each other. HPFF can be seamlessly integrated into existing methods and bridging the performance gap between supervised local learning methods and BP.

An overarching goal for computer-aided perception systems is the holistic understanding of the human-centric 3D world, including faithful reconstructions of humans, scenes, and their global spatial relationships. While recent progress in monocular 3D reconstruction has been made for footage of either humans or scenes alone, the joint reconstruction of both humans and scenes, along with their global spatial information, remains an unsolved challenge. To address this, we introduce a novel and unified framework that simultaneously achieves temporally and spatially coherent 3D reconstruction of static scenes with dynamic humans from monocular RGB videos. Specifically, we parameterize temporally consistent canonical human models and static scene representations using two neural fields in a shared 3D space. Additionally, we develop a global optimization framework that considers physical constraints imposed by potential human-scene interpenetration and occlusion. Compared to separate reconstructions, our framework enables detailed and holistic geometry reconstructions of both humans and scenes. Furthermore, we introduce a synthetic dataset for quantitative evaluations. Extensive experiments and ablation studies on both real-world and synthetic videos demonstrate the efficacy of our framework in monocular human-scene reconstruction.

Consider a delivery robot navigating to hand over a package to a person as a motivational example. For successful interaction, the robot's perception system must perceive the 3D layout of its surroundings and accurately interpret the state and dynamics of the humans within that space. This necessitates a comprehensive approach to reconstructing both humans and scenes, along with understanding their spatial relationships. Moreover, this reconstruction capability must be robust and capable of adapting to new individuals, varying clothing styles, and diverse environments without specific templates.

For example, with advances in neural volume rendering [44, 60, 70, 71], researchers have explored reconstructing scenes with neural implicit functions [40, 48, 59, 74], but all of these works ignore dynamic components such as humans. Simultaneously, there has been remarkable progress in deformable object reconstruction from images, especially articulated humans [6, 21, 24, 37, 50, 65]. Although successful in their respective tasks, the challenge remains in leveraging these methods to simultaneously reconstruct both scenes and humans as motivated above. As we have found experimentally, naively combining these two lines of methods produces artifacts such as truncated human bodies and human-scene interpenetration.

We formulate a global, joint optimization over all of the learnable parameters of the dynamic human and static scene. This includes physical constraints imposed by the potential human-scene occlusion and interpenetration. In addition, a 3D body model-guided sampling strategy for surface-based neural volume rendering then facilitates the separation of the dynamic human and static environment.

Methods that directly regress 3D surfaces have shown impressive results [2, 15, 27-29, 32, 49, 50, 65, 79]. However, they often struggle with building a consistent representation over time and require 3D data for supervision.

Vid2Avatar [21] and SelfRecon [33] improve geometry reconstruction quality by adopting an SDF-based representation and enable reconstructing human avatars from monocular videos.

An overarching goal for computer-aided perception systems is the holistic understanding of the human-centric 3D world, including faithful reconstructions of humans, scenes, and their global spatial relationships. While recent progress in monocular 3D reconstruction has been made for footage of either humans or scenes alone, the joint reconstruction of both humans and scenes, along with their global spatial information, remains an unsolved challenge. To address this, we introduce a novel and unified framework that simultaneously achieves temporally and spatially coherent 3D reconstruction of static scenes with dynamic humans from monocular RGB videos. Specifically, we parameterize temporally consistent canonical human models and static scene representations using two neural fields in a shared 3D space. Additionally, we develop a global optimization framework that considers physical constraints imposed by potential human-scene interpenetration and occlusion. Compared to separate reconstructions, our framework enables detailed and holistic geometry reconstructions of both humans and scenes. Furthermore, we introduce a synthetic dataset for quantitative evaluations. Extensive experiments and ablation studies on both real-world and synthetic videos demonstrate the efficacy of our framework in monocular human-scene reconstruction.

Simultaneously, there has been remarkable progress in deformable object reconstruction from images, especially articulated humans [6, 21, 24, 37, 50, 65]. Although successful in their respective tasks, the challenge remains in leveraging these methods to simultaneously reconstruct both scenes and humans as motivated above. As we have found experimentally, naively combining these two lines of methods produces artifacts such as truncated human bodies and human-scene interpenetration.

We formulate a global, joint optimization over all of the learnable parameters of the dynamic human and static scene. This includes physical constraints imposed by the potential human-scene occlusion and interpenetration. In addition, a 3D body model-guided sampling strategy for surface-based neural volume rendering then facilitates the separation of the dynamic human and static environment.

Explicit representations have been successfully used for monocular human performance capture but required personalized, manually rigged templates, such as human scans [24, 25, 66]. Some methods [1, 8, 20, 46] have addressed this, but explicit mesh representations are inherently limited by a fixed resolution. Methods that directly regress 3D surfaces have shown impressive results [2, 15, 27-29, 32, 49, 50, 65, 79]. However, they often struggle with building a consistent representation over time and require 3D data for supervision. More recently, implicit neural fields combined with neural rendering have emerged as a way to fit articulated human models to videos [21, 33-35, 39, 47, 54, 55, 63]. Vid2Avatar [21] and SelfRecon [33] improve geometry reconstruction quality by adopting an SDF-based representation and enable reconstructing human avatars from monocular videos.

This approach enables HSR to account for physical interactions between humans and scenes, effectively addressing issues of interpenetration and occlusion. + +Abstract. An overarching goal for computer-aided perception systems is the holistic understanding of the human-centric 3D world, including faithful reconstructions of humans, scenes, and their global spatial relationships. While recent progress in monocular 3D reconstruction has been made for footage of either humans or scenes alone, the joint reconstruction of both humans and scenes, along with their global spatial information, remains an unsolved challenge. To address this, we introduce a novel and unified framework that simultaneously achieves temporally and spatially coherent 3D reconstruction of static scenes with dynamic humans from monocular RGB videos. Specifically, we parameterize temporally consistent canonical human models and static scene representations using two neural fields in a shared 3D space. Additionally, we develop a global optimization framework that considers physical constraints imposed by potential human-scene interpenetration and occlusion. Compared to separate reconstructions, our framework enables detailed and holistic geometry reconstructions of both humans and scenes. Furthermore, we introduce a synthetic dataset for quantitative evaluations. Extensive experiments and ablation studies on both real-world and synthetic videos demonstrate the efficacy of our framework in monocular human-scene reconstruction. Code and data are publicly available on our project page. + +Keywords: Neural implicit representations $\cdot$ 3D human body shape modeling $\cdot$ Scene reconstruction + +# 1 Introduction + +Digitally recreating real-life scenarios, particularly those involving human-centric activities, is crucial for empowering machines to perceive and interact with the world around them. Consider a delivery robot navigating to hand over a package to a person as a motivational example. For successful interaction, the robot's perception system must perceive the 3D layout of its surroundings and accurately interpret the state and dynamics of the humans within that space. This necessitates a comprehensive approach to reconstructing both humans and scenes, along with understanding their spatial relationships. Moreover, this reconstruction capability must be robust and capable of adapting to new individuals, varying clothing styles, and diverse environments without specific templates. Therefore, our goal is to achieve holistic 3D reconstructions of static scenes and dynamic human occupants from monocular RGB videos captured by consumer devices. + +Most previous works treat static scene reconstruction and dynamic human reconstruction separately. For example, with advances in neural volume rendering [44, 60, 70, 71], researchers have explored reconstructing scenes with neural implicit functions [40, 48, 59, 74], but all of these works ignore dynamic components such as humans. Simultaneously, there has been remarkable progress in deformable object reconstruction from images, especially articulated humans [6, 21, 24, 37, 50, 65]. Although successful in their respective tasks, the challenge remains in leveraging these methods to simultaneously reconstruct both scenes and humans as motivated above. As we have found experimentally, naively combining these two lines of methods produces artifacts such as truncated human bodies and human-scene interpenetration. This is because it lacks the spatial relationship between humans and scenes, where humans are unaware of scenes and vice versa. In addition, most human reconstruction methods assume a complete observation of the human, ignoring the common human-scene occlusion. + +To address these issues, we propose HSR based on the following insight: modeling static scenes and dynamic humans should be reconciled into a single, unified framework that treats the problem holistically. More concretely, we utilize two neural fields - one for modeling the dynamic human in canonical space [21] and another for the static scene [74]. We formulate a global, joint optimization over all of the learnable parameters of the dynamic human and static scene. This includes physical constraints imposed by the potential human-scene occlusion and interpenetration. In addition, a 3D body model-guided sampling strategy for surface-based neural volume rendering then facilitates the separation of the dynamic human and static environment. The 3D body model is utilized to guide the sampling process, which helps to effectively model sharp boundaries between the dynamic human and static environment. This proves beneficial even when faced with significant human-scene occlusions. We also use estimated normal and + +depth maps to improve reconstruction quality. This approach enables plausible and detailed holistic geometry reconstructions of the entire space + +Our experiments demonstrate that our method achieves accurate human-scene decomposition and detailed 3D reconstruction. Furthermore, comparisons with existing methods indicate superior performance of our method compared to prior works. To facilitate quantitative comparison, we contribute a novel semisynthetic test set with accurate 3D geometry of complete scenes. Finally, extensive ablation experiments validate our design choices. + +In summary, our contributions are: + +- a novel unified framework to holistically reconstruct 3D scenes with dynamic people from monocular videos, achieving robust and detailed 3D reconstructions with a clean separation even under challenging human-scene occlusions and interpenetrations, +- a novel semi-synthetic dataset with rich 3D annotations, allowing for comparing monocular dynamic scene reconstruction methods, +- extensive ablation studies and comparisons demonstrating the effectiveness of our proposed components and the entire system. + +# 2 Related Work + +Dynamic Human Reconstruction. Explicit representations have been successfully used for monocular human performance capture but required personalized, manually rigged templates, such as human scans [24, 25, 66]. Some methods [1, 8, 20, 46] have addressed this, but explicit mesh representations are inherently limited by a fixed resolution. Methods that directly regress 3D surfaces have shown impressive results [2, 15, 27-29, 32, 49, 50, 65, 79]. However, they often struggle with building a consistent representation over time and require 3D data for supervision. More recently, implicit neural fields combined with neural rendering have emerged as a way to fit articulated human models to videos [21, 33-35, 39, 47, 54, 55, 63]. Vid2Avatar [21] and SelfRecon [33] improve geometry reconstruction quality by adopting an SDF-based representation and enable reconstructing human avatars from monocular videos. OccNeRF [64] incorporates attention and graph convolution to hallucinate occluded regions and achieve plausible novel view rendering. Unlike these methods that focus primarily on the human subject, our work aims to achieve a consistent 3D reconstruction of both humans and scenes. + +Static Scene Reconstruction. Multi-view stereo (MVS) is a common technique for reconstructing the dense geometry of static scenes [17, 19, 52, 58, 68, 69]. Many learning-based MVS methods leverage CNNs to overcome the limitation of hand-crafted modeling attempts of traditional methods [9, 19, 42, 57, 58, 68, 69]. Recently, with the rise of NeRF [44], researchers have explored static scene reconstructions with neural implicit functions. IDR [71] reconstructs surfaces as the zero-level set of an MLP. While achieving good reconstruction, IDR requires accurate object masks during training. To avoid using masks, VolSDF [70] and NeuS [60] modify NeRF and use signed distance function (SDF) to represent the + +density function in neural volume rendering. Since some works [62,75] show that there exists an ambiguity between appearance and geometry in NeRF, many variants based on VolSDF or NeuS adopt better geometry supervision and improve reconstruction accuracy [13, 16, 59]. MonoSDF [74] uses monocular depth and normal estimation to provide geometric constraints across images. However, all these methods consider only static scenes without moving subjects, limiting their applicability to life-like scenes. + +Human-Scene Interaction. Human-scene interaction in 2D and 3D has been widely studied in the literature [5, 7, 22, 26, 30, 31, 38, 45, 51, 72, 73]. A line of research estimates human body poses in scenes from RGB images [26, 30] or with the aid of wearable sensors [12, 23, 36, 43, 77]. Most methods require a prescanned scene and do not estimate detailed human surface geometry. Recently, TotalRecon [53] focuses on reconstructing articulated objects and scenes from RGBD input. PPR [67] reconstructs articulated objects and scenes from monocular videos, employing physical simulation to determine relative scales and optimize poses. However, they do not model humans explicitly, leading to insufficient reconstruction quality of human subjects. In summary, prior work either assumes a ready-made 3D scene scan, does not reconstruct the detailed human surface geometry, or requires additional sensor inputs. These limitations prevent such techniques from being deployed to applications where prior knowledge of scenes and human surface geometry cannot be afforded. + +# 3 Method + +We first describe how we model the geometry and appearance for the human and the scene in Sec. 3.1. Next, we discuss how we obtain a final pixel value via compositional volume rendering in Sec. 3.2. Finally, Sec. 3.3 shows our global optimization procedure. For an overview of our method, please refer to Fig. 2. In the following, we assume that two sets of 3D points have been sampled along a ray: one set for the human part $\{\mathbf{x}_d\}_{i=1}^N$ , and the other for the scene $\{\mathbf{x}_s\}_{i=1}^N$ . More details on sampling are explained in Sec. 3.2. + +# 3.1 Neural Avatar and Scene Representation + +In this section, we formally introduce the geometry and appearance representations for humans and scenes in HSR. To account for dynamic human motion, we explain how skeletal deformation is used to model articulated human bodies. + +Geometry Representation. We model the canonical human $(H)$ and scene geometry $(S)$ as two neural networks, $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{H}$ and $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{S}$ , where each one predicts the signed distance value for any 3D point in its respective space. Specifically: + +$$ +f _ {\mathrm {s d f}} ^ {H}: \mathbb {R} ^ {3 + n _ {\theta}} \rightarrow \mathbb {R} ^ {1 + n _ {z}}; \left(\mathbf {x} _ {c}, \boldsymbol {\theta}\right) \mapsto \left(\xi^ {H}, \mathbf {z} ^ {H}\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +f _ {\mathrm {s d f}} ^ {S}: \mathbb {R} ^ {3} \rightarrow \mathbb {R} ^ {1 + n _ {z}}; \mathbf {x} _ {s} \mapsto (\xi^ {S}, \mathbf {z} ^ {S}). \tag {2} +$$ + +The human shape $f_{\mathrm{sf}}^{H}$ is modeled in the canonical space and deformed into the observation space with LBS deformations [41]. To capture pose-dependent + +![](images/672f67659a57d2c2e864c1f9a25892b798127f88975fad7bcdcb216a190056db.jpg) +Fig. 2: Method overview. Given a ray, we sample two sets of points along it, one for the human $\{\mathbf{x}_d\}_{i=1}^N$ and one for the scene $\{\mathbf{x}_s\}_{i=1}^N$ . The points for the human are sampled only inside the 3D human bounding box. We model the human $H$ in a canonical space with an SDF-based shape neural network $f_{\mathrm{sf}}^{H}$ [21] and a texture network $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{H}$ , then deform it using skinning techniques. Similarly, the scene is represented with neural fields $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{S}$ and $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{S}$ [74]. The outputs from both branches are used to compose a final image via SDF-based volume rendering. This allows us to jointly optimize the scene and human, treating the problem of 3D human-scene reconstruction holistically. + +local non-rigid deformations such as dynamically changing wrinkles on clothes, we concatenate the human pose $\pmb{\theta}$ as an additional input to $\mathbf{x}_c$ . The pose parameters $\pmb{\theta}$ are the SMPL [41] pose parameters with dimensionality $n_{\theta}$ . Each network outputs the signed distance value, $\xi^L$ and a global geometry feature $\mathbf{z}^L$ , where $L \in \{H, S\}$ . The shape $\mathcal{S}^L$ is then given by the zero-level set of $f_{\mathrm{sfd}}^L$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {S} ^ {L} = \{\textbf {x} | f _ {\mathrm {s d f}} ^ {L} (\cdot) = 0 \}. \tag {3} +$$ + +We jointly optimize the shape and pose parameters during training, which naturally encourages accurate pixel-level alignment and smooth motion. Compared to the 3D spatial location, the pose parameters are relatively high-dimensional. This can lead to overfitting shapes to the pose parameters instead of achieving temporally consistent canonical shapes. To address this issue, we perform linear dimension reduction on the pose parameters, enable the pose condition at a later stage, and periodically reset the pose parameters to zero. + +Appearance Representation. The appearance of the human and the scene is modeled via two neural networks $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{L}$ , which predict color values for 3D points: + +$$ +f _ {\mathrm {r g b}} ^ {H}: \mathbb {R} ^ {3 + n _ {\theta} + n _ {z} + 3} \rightarrow \mathbb {R} ^ {3}; \left(\mathbf {x} _ {c}, \boldsymbol {\theta}, \mathbf {z} ^ {H}, \mathbf {n} _ {d}\right) \mapsto \mathbf {c} ^ {H}, \tag {4} +$$ + +$$ +f _ {\mathrm {r g b}} ^ {S}: \mathbb {R} ^ {3 + 3 + n _ {z} + 3} \rightarrow \mathbb {R} ^ {3}; (\mathbf {x} _ {s}, \mathbf {v}, \mathbf {z} ^ {S}, \mathbf {n} _ {s}) \mapsto \mathbf {c} ^ {S}. \tag {5} +$$ + +Again, the human network $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{H}$ operates in the canonical space and is conditioned on the SMPL pose $\pmb{\theta}$ . In contrast, the scene network $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{S}$ is conditioned on the viewing direction $\mathbf{v}$ . Both networks $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{L}$ receive the global geometry feature $\mathbf{z}^{L}$ computed by the shape network $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{L}$ . Lastly, to achieve better disentanglement of geometry and appearance, we also condition $f_{\mathrm{rgb}}^{L}$ on the respective normals: + +$$ +\mathbf {n} _ {d} = \frac {\partial \xi^ {H} (\mathbf {x} _ {c} , \boldsymbol {\theta})}{\partial \mathbf {x} _ {d}}, \qquad \mathbf {n} _ {s} = \frac {\partial \xi^ {S} (\mathbf {x} _ {s})}{\partial \mathbf {x} _ {s}}. (6) +$$ + +Skeletal Deformation. We model human networks in a canonical and pose-independent space. To map between the canonical and the posed space, we use skeletal deformations following [21]. Given the bone transformation matrix $\mathbf{B}_i$ for joint $i\in \{1,\dots,n_b\}$ extracted from $\pmb{\theta}$ , we can map between a pair of the canonical point $\mathbf{x}_c$ andhte corresponding deformed point $\mathbf{x}_d$ via linear blend skinning (LBS) and its inverse: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} _ {d} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {n _ {b}} w _ {c} ^ {i} \mathbf {B} _ {i} \mathbf {x} _ {c}, \quad \mathbf {x} _ {c} = \left(\sum_ {i = 1} ^ {n _ {b}} w _ {d} ^ {i} \mathbf {B} _ {i}\right) ^ {- 1} \mathbf {x} _ {d}, \tag {7} +$$ + +where $n_b$ denotes the number of bones in the transformation, and $\mathbf{w}(\cdot)$ represents the skinning weights for $\mathbf{x}(\cdot)$ . We choose $w_d$ to be the skinning weight of the SMPL vertex that is closest to $\mathbf{x}_d$ (and analogously for $w_c$ and $\mathbf{x}_c$ in the canonical space). With this deformation, the normals $\mathbf{n}_d$ can be computed as [78]: + +$$ +\mathbf {n} _ {d} = \frac {\partial \xi^ {H} (\mathbf {x} _ {c} , \boldsymbol {\theta})}{\partial \mathbf {x} _ {c}} \frac {\partial \mathbf {x} _ {c}}{\partial \mathbf {x} _ {d}} = \frac {\partial \xi^ {H} (\mathbf {x} _ {c} , \boldsymbol {\theta})}{\partial \mathbf {x} _ {c}} \left(\sum_ {i = 1} ^ {n _ {b}} w _ {d} ^ {i} \mathbf {B} _ {i}\right) ^ {- 1}. \tag {8} +$$ + +Choice of Coordinate System. Previous works on human reconstruction [21, 33] position cameras based on their relative location to the canonical human body. In contrast to a human-centric coordinate system, we place everything within a consistent global coordinate system. This choice not only facilitates spatially coherent 3D human reconstructions but also improves human-scene decomposition through multi-view photometric consistency. As a result, this leads to the correct reconstruction of foreground occluders, which is essential to model occlusion. We demonstrate the effectiveness of such a choice of coordinate system in the supplementary material. To align the estimated human pose from each frame and the scene into a global coordinate system, we use the contact priors similar to NeuMan [34] to resolve the scale ambiguity. This gives us a rough estimation of the human scale in the scene. The scale can be further refined in the optimization stage to match the 2D projection of human bodies. + +# 3.2 Compositional Volume Rendering + +We normalize the scene shape field into a sphere with a pre-defined radius and align the deformed human shape with the scene by estimating a relative scale to ensure proper 2D projection and 3D contacts [34]. We apply SDF-based volume + +rendering for both the dynamic human and static scenes. The final pixel value is then attained via compositing these two components. + +Shape-aware Sampling. Given a ray $\mathbf{r} = (\mathbf{o},\mathbf{v})$ with camera center $\mathbf{o}$ and ray direction $\mathbf{v}$ , we sample $N$ points for the human and scene networks (i.e., $2N$ in total) as $\mathbf{x}^i = \mathbf{o} + t^i\mathbf{v}$ . We follow VolSDF [70] and use a two-stage sampling procedure with uniform and inverse CDF sampling. To better disentangle the human and the background even under strong occlusions, we design a shape-aware sampling strategy that leverages 3D body models (e.g., SMPL) to guide the sampling process. Specifically, we only sample points for the human shape and texture fields on the part of the ray that intersects with the axis-aligned 3D bounding box derived from the SMPL body estimation. The sampling range for the scene is determined by the camera center and the pre-defined sphere. We show in Fig. 5 that this sampling strategy is crucial to separate the human from the scene cleanly. + +Surface-based Volume Rendering. For the surface-based volume rendering [70], we convert the SDF to a density value $\sigma$ by applying the scaled Laplace distribution's Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF, $L\in \{H,S\}$ and $\beta ,\gamma >0$ are learnable parameters): + +$$ +\sigma^ {L} (\mathbf {x}) = \beta \left(\frac {1}{2} - \frac {1}{2} \operatorname {s i g n} (\xi^ {L} (\mathbf {x})) (1 - \exp (- \frac {| \xi^ {L} (\mathbf {x}) |}{\gamma}))\right). \tag {9} +$$ + +Scene Composition. To determine the final pixel value for a ray $\mathbf{r}$ , we raycast the human and scene volumes separately. We then sort the sampled points based on the distances to the camera center, followed by a scene composition step for the volume integration: + +$$ +C (\mathbf {r}) = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {2 N} \tau_ {i} \mathbf {c} ^ {L} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {i}\right), \tag {10} +$$ + +$$ +\tau_ {i} = \exp \left(- \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {i - 1} \sigma^ {L} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {j}\right) \delta^ {j}\right) \left(1 - \exp \left(- \sigma^ {L} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {i}\right) \delta^ {i}\right)\right), \tag {11} +$$ + +where $L = H$ if a point $\mathbf{x}^i$ is sampled for the human model (i.e., $\mathbf{x}^i \in \mathcal{H}$ ) and $L = S$ otherwise. $\delta^i$ is the distance between two adjacent samples. Here, the accumulated alpha value of either model for a pixel can be obtained by $\alpha^H(\mathbf{r}) = \sum_{\mathbf{x}_i \in \mathcal{H}} \tau_i$ and $\alpha^S(\mathbf{r}) = \sum_{\mathbf{x}_i \notin \mathcal{H}} \tau_i$ . Similarly, we compute the depth $D(\mathbf{r})$ and normal $N(\mathbf{r})$ of the surface intersecting the current ray as: + +$$ +D (\mathbf {r}) = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {2 N} \tau_ {i} t ^ {i}, N (\mathbf {r}) = \sum_ {\mathbf {x} _ {i} \in \mathcal {H}} \tau_ {i} \mathbf {n} _ {d} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {i}\right) + \sum_ {\mathbf {x} _ {i} \notin \mathcal {H}} \tau_ {i} \mathbf {n} _ {s} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {i}\right). \tag {12} +$$ + +# 3.3 Global Optimization + +To train the human and scene models jointly from videos, we formulate the training as global optimization over all $K$ frames with the following losses. + +Image Reconstruction Loss. We calculate the $L_{1}$ -distance between the rendered color $C(\mathbf{r})$ and the pixel's RGB value $\hat{C}(\mathbf{r})$ to compute the image reconstruction loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{rgb}}^k$ for frame $k$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {r g b}} ^ {k} = \frac {1}{| \mathcal {R} ^ {k} |} \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {R} ^ {k}} | C (\mathbf {r}) - \hat {C} (\mathbf {r}) |, \tag {13} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{R}^k$ denotes the sampled rays for frame $k$ . + +Interpenetration Loss. We penalize human-scene interpenetration of implicit surfaces using $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{inter}}^k$ . We select points that are predicted to be simultaneously inside the human and the scene by querying the individual SDF values in both shape networks, i.e., $S^k = \{\mathbf{x}_c\colon \xi^H (\mathbf{x}_c) < 0\} \cap \{\mathbf{x}_c\colon \xi^S (LBS(\mathbf{x}_c)) < 0\}$ , where $LBS$ is the linear blend skinning function: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {i n t e r}} ^ {k} = \frac {1}{| \mathcal {S} ^ {k} |} \sum_ {\mathbf {x} _ {c} \in \mathcal {S} ^ {k}} \xi^ {H} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {c}\right) \cdot \xi^ {S} (L B S \left(\mathbf {x} _ {c}\right)). \tag {14} +$$ + +Mask Loss. We propose adding a foreground and background mask loss to help guide human-scene separation and refine human pose and geometry. Specifically, we apply a $L_{1}$ loss on the occlusion-aware foreground accumulated weights and background accumulated weights against the human mask $\mathcal{M}^k$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}} ^ {k} = \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {M} ^ {k}} | \alpha^ {H} (\mathbf {r}) - 1 | + \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \notin \mathcal {M} ^ {k}} | \alpha^ {S} (\mathbf {r}) - 1 |. \tag {15} +$$ + +Due to the inaccuracy in the generated human mask, we decrease the strength of mask supervision as training progresses. More details on mask generation and the effectiveness of such mask loss are provided in the supplementary material. + +Self-Decomposition Loss. To mitigate incorrect mask supervision and let the model refine the human-scene separation, we use a scene decomposition loss [21]. Such a loss encourages the density distribution to be sharp and sparse so the network can figure out the accurate boundary. This loss includes two parts: an opacity regularization $L_{\mathrm{sparse}}$ to regularize the ray opacity via the canonical human shape and a BCE loss that penalizes deviations of the ray opacities from a binary $\{0,1\}$ distribution: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {s p a r s e}} ^ {k} = \frac {1}{| \mathcal {R} _ {\text {o f f}} ^ {k} |} \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {R} _ {\text {o f f}} ^ {k}} | \alpha^ {H} (\mathbf {r}) |, \tag {16} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {B C E}} ^ {k} = - \frac {1}{| \mathcal {R} ^ {k} |} \sum_ {L \in \{H, S \}} \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {R} ^ {k}} \left(\alpha^ {L} (\mathbf {r}) \log \left(\alpha^ {L} (\mathbf {r})\right) + (1 - \alpha^ {L} (\mathbf {r})) \log \left(1 - \alpha^ {L} (\mathbf {r})\right)\right), \tag {17} +$$ + +where the set of rays that do not intersect with the human is denoted as $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{off}}^k$ . We summarize both terms as $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dec}}^k = \lambda_{\mathrm{BCE}}\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{BCE}}^k + \lambda_{\mathrm{sparse}}\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{sparse}}^k$ . We gradually increase the weight for this loss during the optimization. + +Geometric Prior Loss. Using RGB images only to reconstruct complex and dynamic 3D scenes is an under-constrained problem as there exists an infinite number of photo-consistent explanations [4,75]. This is even worse for the scene reconstruction due to the lack of explicit across-frame constraints. To this end, we follow [74] and leverage monocular geometric priors as additional supervision signals for the background reconstruction. Specifically, we use a pre-trained Omnidata model [14] to predict a depth map $\hat{D}$ and a normal map $\hat{N}$ for frame $k$ . We then enforce the depth and normal consistency between the 2D estimations and the rendered ones: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {d e p t h}} ^ {k} = \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {R} ^ {k}} \| (w \hat {D} (\mathbf {r}) + q) - D (\mathbf {r}) \| ^ {2}, \tag {18} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {n o r m a l}} ^ {k} = \sum_ {\mathbf {r} \in \mathcal {R} ^ {k}} \| \hat {N} (\mathbf {r}) - N (\mathbf {r}) \| _ {1} + \| 1 - \hat {N} (\mathbf {r}) ^ {\top} N (\mathbf {r}) \| _ {1}, \tag {19} +$$ + +where $w$ and $q$ are learnable scale and shift parameters. The final geometry prior loss is then given by $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{geo}}^k = \lambda_{\mathrm{depth}}\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{depth}}^k +\lambda_{\mathrm{normal}}\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{normal}}^k$ . More details on the depth loss are provided in the supplementary material. + +Eikonal Loss. Like IGR [18], we force the shape networks $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{H}$ , $f_{\mathrm{sdf}}^{S}$ to satisfy the Eikonal equation: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {e i k}} ^ {k} = \mathbb {E} _ {\mathbf {x} _ {c}} \left(\| \nabla f _ {\mathrm {s d f}} ^ {H} (\mathbf {x} _ {c}) \| - 1\right) ^ {2} + \mathbb {E} _ {\mathbf {x} _ {s}} \left(\| \nabla f _ {\mathrm {s d f}} ^ {S} (\mathbf {x} _ {s}) \| - 1\right) ^ {2}. \tag {20} +$$ + +Full Loss. Given a video sequence with $K$ input frames, we minimize the combined loss function: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} (\boldsymbol {\Theta}) = \sum_ {k = 1} ^ {K} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {r g b}} ^ {k} (\boldsymbol {\Theta}) + \lambda_ {\text {i n t e r}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {i n t e r}} ^ {k} (\boldsymbol {\Theta}) + \lambda_ {\text {m a s k}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}} ^ {k} (\boldsymbol {\Theta}) + \tag {21} +$$ + +$$ +\lambda_ {\mathrm {d e c}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {d e c}} ^ {k} (\Theta) + \lambda_ {\mathrm {g e o}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {g e o}} ^ {k} (\Theta) + \lambda_ {\mathrm {e i k}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {e i k}} ^ {k} (\Theta), +$$ + +where $\Theta$ is the set of all estimizable parameters for the human and scene model. + +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Evaluation Protocol + +Synthetic Human Scene Dataset (SHSD). The currently available human motion datasets that include scene scans solely consist of SMPL or SMPL-X registrations, lacking precise ground truth for detailed human surface geometry [23, 26, 30]. To fill this gap, we introduce a new dataset named SHSD with ground-truth information for the surface geometry and appearance of human subjects and their surrounding environments. We employ a multiview capture stage to capture and reconstruct dynamic human subjects [10] in high quality. Subsequently, we render these realistic subjects into virtual environments with Blender [11], utilizing the virtual environments from ReplicaCAD [56] and + +CIRCLE [3] datasets. By combining life-like human scans with realistic virtual environments, we create a dataset for further analysis and research of holistic 3D human-scene reconstruction. In total, SHSD consists of six sequences. For more details, please refer to the supplementary material. + +Real Dataset. We record six monocular sequences using a mobile phone to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on real-world data. Each sequence captures a person engaging in various poses within an everyday scene. + +Baselines. We compare our methods with the state-of-the-art human reconstruction methods SelfRecon [33] and Vid2Avatar [21]. We also compare our results with the holistic reconstruction methods PPR [67] and Total-Recon [53]. Total-Recon [53] focuses on reconstructing articulated objects and scenes from RGB-D input. Similarly, PPR [67] reconstructs articulated objects and scenes from monocular videos, employing physical simulation to determine relative scale and optimize pose. Therefore, PPR [67] and Total-Recon [53] do not specifically focus on modeling humans explicitly. + +Evaluation Metrics. For view synthesis, we report PSNR, SSIM [61], and LPIPS [76] for image quality. In addition, we report the intersection over union (Mask IoU) between ground truth and predicted human masks for evaluation on human-scene decomposition. For the evaluation of human mesh reconstruction, we use volumetric IoU (3D IoU), Chamfer distance (CD, in cm), and normal consistency (NC) as metrics. For the quality of holistic reconstruction, we report the cosine similarity of normal maps (N-cos, in range $(0,1)$ ) and the $L_{1}$ distance of the depth map error (D- $\ell_{1}$ , in cm). + +# 4.2 Evaluation on Human Reconstruction + +We present comparisons between our methods and Vid2Avatar [21] and SelfRecon [33] qualitatively in Fig. 3 and quantitatively in Tab. 1. Specifically, our method achieves better human-scene decomposition as shown in the first row in Fig. 3 and higher mask IoU in Tab. 1. In addition, our method can deal with severe occlusion, while Vid2Avatar and SelfRecon fail drastically, as shown in the second row in Fig. 3. This is because we place everything in a global consistent coordinate system, where obstructing objects can be reconstructed, and the spatial relationship between human and scene objects can be correctly inferred. In contrast, Vid2Avatar and SelfRecon hold the assumption that humans are not occluded and adopt a human-centric coordinate system which breaks the multiview consistency for the scene. In the third row in Fig. 3, we show that our method is more robust to initial pose estimation error as we optimize the pose parameters and the accurate 2D mask loss. More discussion on this is included in the supplementary material. + +# 4.3 Evaluation on Holistic Reconstruction + +We further compare our method with PPR [67] and Total-Recon [53] in Fig. 4 and Tab. 2.

Furthermore, PPR reconstructs the wall and the floor of the scene but struggles with detailed objects such as furniture, resulting in notable geometry errors. In contrast, our method considers the entire scene and makes better use of human priors, thus outperforming PPR significantly on human-scene reconstruction. Although Total-Recon takes depth maps as an additional input, the results presented in Fig. 4 demonstrate that our method performs much better even with only RGB signals. For quantitative comparison, PPR fails on certain sequences within our dataset, thus we only report the results on a subset of our dataset in Tab. 2.

Without shape-aware sampling or pose regularization, the human shape overfits to the observations, breaking temporal consistency across different frames. + +# 4.4 Ablation Study + +In this section, we present various ablation experiments to demonstrate the importance of HSR's design choices. The qualitative results in Fig. 5 illustrate techniques for a consistent human reconstruction, particularly under occlusion. Fig. 6 highlights the critical role of monocular geometric cues in monocular video-based scene reconstruction. Additional quantitative results are included in the supplementary material. Fig. 7 demonstrates the effectiveness of interpenetration loss in resolving human-scene interpenetration. + +Consistent Human Reconstruction. When occlusion occurs, all supervision signals are utilized for the foreground occlusions, leaving the occluded human parts under-constrained. To achieve a reasonable human reconstruction in such a scenario, we need to rely on the temporal consistency of the canonical human space. However, the high dimensionality of pose parameters, compared to the three-dimensional location input in Eq. (1), causes the shape network to overfit to the pose condition, resulting in artifacts as depicted in Fig. 5. To address this issue, we propose to enable the pose condition only at a late stage to learn pose-dependent deformations for clothed humans. Additionally, we periodically + +![](images/7d03c16440cbb00ba22987028ad1711fd359696f59de88b260aa567997d43331.jpg) +Input + +![](images/6d5f12c6ab65220ac3401071874e6b377507d703e5289ffd000da660b256b42b.jpg) +w/o Geometric Cues + +![](images/7adeb0d933721739284bc644cb882c29140a44a01ba7dc2c6d865efc4b9ccfc1.jpg) +w/ Geometric Cues + +![](images/ad3c63f2bdc7b57d3a18c7f1d2d474d1a7d93e1333b0669cd11ffc9a6a5e8a13.jpg) +Fig.6: Effect of monocular geometric cues.

In Fig. 5, we demonstrate the importance of shape-aware sampling, which prevents artifacts such as truncated bodies. Without this strategy, the samples will be scattered along the entire ray due to the limitation of inverse CDF sampling. By applying a strong prior over a tight sampling range, all samples for the human networks are concentrated around the human body, minimally contributing to the final pixel color in case of occlusion. We include an illustration of this scenario in the supplementary material. + +Monocular Geometric Cues. We use normal and depth maps predicted by Omnidata [14] to enhance our reconstruction quality. As shown in Fig. 6, these cues are particularly helpful for monocular reconstruction, especially in textureless regions such as walls and floors. + +Human-Scene Interpenetration. Holistic reconstruction from images can result in surface interpenetration due to inaccuracies in pose estimation and geometry reconstruction. The proposed interpenetration loss mitigates collision around the contact regions as shown in Fig. 7. Our method effectively handles interactions with various scene elements through our general formulation of implicit scene modeling and the interpenetration loss. We provide a detailed examination of human-chair contacts in the supplementary material. + +![](images/8f6677e2c99ed0a4fa705ced579c22f7f55abe4cdd9be8deb150e94c7b1ad097.jpg) +Fig. 8: Joint human-scene reconstruction. Training our method without a joint, global optimization (Ours Individual) leads to interpenetrations and inaccurate human-scene separation as highlighted. + +Joint Human-Scene Reconstruction. To illustrate the necessity of joint human-scene reconstruction, we design a straightforward baseline method, combining MonoSDF [74] for scene reconstruction and Vid2Avatar [21] for human reconstruction. Specifically, we use human masks to separate the human from the scene and train each model independently. We refer to this baseline as Ours Individual. As shown in Fig. 8, Ours Individual suffers from spatial misalignment (left example) and segmentation errors (right example). In contrast, when optimizing the human model and the scene model simultaneously, our approach correctly determines the relative spatial order and effectively decouples the human and the scene. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We present HSR, a unified framework to jointly reconstruct static scenes with dynamic humans from monocular RGB videos. Our method models the human and the scene with neural implicit SDFs in a pose-independent space. Importantly, we optimize all parameters globally, making the human aware of the scene structure to better handle occlusions and interpenetration. + +Limitations. In this work, we focus on the body - itself a difficult problem - and thus leverage SMPL for deformation. Most of our reconstructions contain blobby hands and blurred faces. To solve this, one needs to have accurate hand pose and facial expression estimation from relatively low-resolution observations. Integrating more expressive deformers such as SMPL- $\left[\mathrm{H} \mid \mathrm{X}\right]$ for better hand and face reconstruction is an interesting future research direction. + +Ethical Concerns.

An overarching goal for computer-aided perception systems is the holistic understanding of the human-centric 3D world, including faithful reconstructions of humans, scenes, and their global spatial relationships. While recent progress in monocular 3D reconstruction has been made for footage of either humans or scenes alone, the joint reconstruction of both humans and scenes, along with their global spatial information, remains an unsolved challenge. To address this, we introduce a novel and unified framework that simultaneously achieves temporally and spatially coherent 3D reconstruction of static scenes with dynamic humans from monocular RGB videos. Specifically, we parameterize temporally consistent canonical human models and static scene representations using two neural fields in a shared 3D space. Additionally, we develop a global optimization framework that considers physical constraints imposed by potential human-scene interpenetration and occlusion. Compared to separate reconstructions, our framework enables detailed and holistic geometry reconstructions of both humans and scenes. Furthermore, we introduce a synthetic dataset for quantitative evaluations. Extensive experiments and ablation studies on both real-world and synthetic videos demonstrate the efficacy of our framework in monocular human-scene reconstruction.

Consider a delivery robot navigating to hand over a package to a person as a motivational example. For successful interaction, the robot's perception system must perceive the 3D layout of its surroundings and accurately interpret the state and dynamics of the humans within that space. This necessitates a comprehensive approach to reconstructing both humans and scenes, along with understanding their spatial relationships. Moreover, this reconstruction capability must be robust and capable of adapting to new individuals, varying clothing styles, and diverse environments without specific templates.

Simultaneously, there has been remarkable progress in deformable object reconstruction from images, especially articulated humans [6, 21, 24, 37, 50, 65]. Although successful in their respective tasks, the challenge remains in leveraging these methods to simultaneously reconstruct both scenes and humans as motivated above. As we have found experimentally, naively combining these two lines of methods produces artifacts such as truncated human bodies and human-scene interpenetration. This is because it lacks the spatial relationship between humans and scenes, where humans are unaware of scenes and vice versa. In addition, most human reconstruction methods assume a complete observation of the human, ignoring the common human-scene occlusion." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 482, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 482, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 482, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "To address these issues, we propose HSR based on the following insight: modeling static scenes and dynamic humans should be reconciled into a single, unified framework that treats the problem holistically. More concretely, we utilize two neural fields - one for modeling the dynamic human in canonical space [21] and another for the static scene [74]. We formulate a global, joint optimization over all of the learnable parameters of the dynamic human and static scene. This includes physical constraints imposed by the potential human-scene occlusion and interpenetration. In addition, a 3D body model-guided sampling strategy for surface-based neural volume rendering then facilitates the separation of the dynamic human and static environment.

Explicit representations have been successfully used for monocular human performance capture but required personalized, manually rigged templates, such as human scans [24, 25, 66]. Some methods [1, 8, 20, 46] have addressed this, but explicit mesh representations are inherently limited by a fixed resolution. Methods that directly regress 3D surfaces have shown impressive results [2, 15, 27-29, 32, 49, 50, 65, 79]. However, they often struggle with building a consistent representation over time and require 3D data for supervision. More recently, implicit neural fields combined with neural rendering have emerged as a way to fit articulated human models to videos [21, 33-35, 39, 47, 54, 55, 63]. Vid2Avatar [21] and SelfRecon [33] improve geometry reconstruction quality by adopting an SDF-based representation and enable reconstructing human avatars from monocular videos.

Recently, with the rise of NeRF [44], researchers have explored static scene reconstructions with neural implicit functions. IDR [71] reconstructs surfaces as the zero-level set of an MLP.

A line of research estimates human body poses in scenes from RGB images [26, 30] or with the aid of wearable sensors [12, 23, 36, 43, 77]. Most methods require a prescanned scene and do not estimate detailed human surface geometry. Recently, TotalRecon [53] focuses on reconstructing articulated objects and scenes from RGBD input. PPR [67] reconstructs articulated objects and scenes from monocular videos, employing physical simulation to determine relative scales and optimize poses. However, they do not model humans explicitly, leading to insufficient reconstruction quality of human subjects. In summary, prior work either assumes a ready-made 3D scene scan, does not reconstruct the detailed human surface geometry, or requires additional sensor inputs.

Previous works on human reconstruction [21, 33] position cameras based on their relative location to the canonical human body. In contrast to a human-centric coordinate system, we place everything within a consistent global coordinate system. This choice not only facilitates spatially coherent 3D human reconstructions but also improves human-scene decomposition through multi-view photometric consistency. As a result, this leads to the correct reconstruction of foreground occluders, which is essential to model occlusion. We demonstrate the effectiveness of such a choice of coordinate system in the supplementary material. To align the estimated human pose from each frame and the scene into a global coordinate system, we use the contact priors similar to NeuMan [34] to resolve the scale ambiguity.

We follow VolSDF [70] and use a two-stage sampling procedure with uniform and inverse CDF sampling. To better disentangle the human and the background even under strong occlusions, we design a shape-aware sampling strategy that leverages 3D body models (e.g., SMPL) to guide the sampling process. Specifically, we only sample points for the human shape and texture fields on the part of the ray that intersects with the axis-aligned 3D bounding box derived from the SMPL body estimation. The sampling range for the scene is determined by the camera center and the pre-defined sphere.

Common approaches in this direction include the development of locomotion skills and user-controllable policies for character animation through deep RL [14, 50, 52-54, 64, 65, 75]. Despite the principled framework RL offers, it comes with its limitations. The extensive training required due to the high-dimensional space of human motions, the reliance on reward functions over data for motion generation, and the computational expense of physics simulators present significant challenges. Also, these engines are typically non-differentiable black boxes, making them incompatible with data-driven learning frameworks [24, 70]. To overcome these challenges, physics-based trajectory optimization and motion imitation have been applied for 3D human pose estimation, further highlighting the significance of physics in capturing human dynamics [14, 47, 66, 67, 77-79, 81, 82].

Generating realistic human motion is crucial for many computer vision and graphics applications. The rich diversity of human body shapes and sizes significantly influences how people move. However, existing motion models typically overlook these differences, using a normalized, average body instead. This results in a homogenization of motion across human bodies, with motions not aligning with their physical attributes, thus limiting diversity. To address this, we propose a novel approach to learn a generative motion model conditioned on body shape.

Since IPMAN's IP terms only apply to static 3D poses, they are not suited for dynamic human motion modeling.

To prevent this, our key insight is to incorporate our IP and dynamic stability terms as training losses on the generated target body motions. This ensures the generated motions remain physically-plausible and dynamically stable, and encourages the network to use the conditioning body shape.

This approach, leveraging RL, navigates the complex solution space of human motion, aiming to produce motions that adhere to physical laws. Common approaches in this direction include the development of locomotion skills and user-controllable policies for character animation through deep RL [14, 50, 52-54, 64, 65, 75]. Despite the principled framework RL offers, it comes with its limitations. The extensive training required due to the high-dimensional space of human motions, the reliance on reward functions over data for motion generation, and the computational expense of physics simulators present significant challenges. Also, these engines are typically non-differentiable black boxes, making them incompatible with data-driven learning frameworks [24, 70]. To overcome these challenges, physics-based trajectory optimization and motion imitation have been applied for 3D human pose estimation, further highlighting the significance of physics in capturing human dynamics [14, 47, 66, 67, 77-79, 81, 82]. These simulators often utilize simplistic, non-differentiable models that fail to capture the intricacies of skin-level contact or muscle activations, leading to motions that, while physically plausible, lack the naturalness, diversity, and expressiveness found in data-driven approaches.

Although SMPL uses parent-relative rotations defined on the kinematic chain, we empirically observe that using root-relative joint rotations results in more stable gradients and faster convergence. Consequently, we convert the SMPL parent-relative pose parameters, to root-relative rotations to construct our motion features.

Additionally, the differences in the style of motion produced by characters of very different body shapes remain subtle. This may be due to the limited shape diversity in the training set. In the future it would be interesting to examine how this data distribution affects the diversity and generalization capabilities of the model. We also do not take into account self-penetrations that may arise during shape-conditioned motion generation. Addressing this would be another promising direction for future work. While human motion is influenced by both body shape and individual motion style, we only consider body shape. Motion style includes factors like emotional state, physiological impediments, societal influences, and personal biases, which are not annotated in existing mocap datasets. With style-specific annotations, it would be useful to extend HUMOS to include style attributes as additional conditioning signals." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.75, + 0.788, + 0.841 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Acknowledgements.

Our method, HUMOS, generates natural, physically plausible and dynamically stable human motions conditioned on body shape. HUMOS uses a novel identity-preserving cycle consistency loss and differentiable dynamic stability and physics terms to learn an identity-conditioned manifold of human motions. Shown here is the same walk motion with a skip-step in the middle, generated by HUMOS for five different identities $\mathcal{I}_{A:\mathcal{E}}$ . To demonstrate shape-conditioning, we visualize the same motion but successively change the identity after every 30 frames. + +Abstract. Generating realistic human motion is crucial for many computer vision and graphics applications. The rich diversity of human body shapes and sizes significantly influences how people move. However, existing motion models typically overlook these differences, using a normalized, average body instead. This results in a homogenization of motion across human bodies, with motions not aligning with their physical attributes, thus limiting diversity. To address this, we propose a novel approach to learn a generative motion model conditioned on body shape. We demonstrate that it is possible to learn such a model from unpaired training data using cycle consistency, intuitive physics, and stability constraints that model the correlation between identity and movement. The + +resulting model produces diverse, physically plausible, and dynamically stable human motions that are quantitatively and qualitatively more realistic than existing state of the art. More details are available on our project page https://github.com/CarstenEpic/humos. + +# 1 Introduction + +Modeling virtual humans that move and interact realistically with 3D environments is extremely important for interactive entertainment, AR/VR and simulation technology, with numerous applications in crowd simulation, gaming and robotics. There has been rapid progress in training models that generate human motion either unconditionally or conditioned on text or previous motions. Existing state-of-the-art human motion models [18,55,56,69] are trained on datasets like AMASS [49], but they typically ignore body shape and proportions. However, variations in muscle mass distribution and body proportions contribute to a person's distinct movement patterns. People with different body types will generally move differently when prompted to perform the same motion. We argue that to achieve physical realism and motion diversity, it is critical to condition generated human motions on body shape. + +To address this problem we adopt a novel approach called HUMOS, that enhances traditional data-driven motion generation methods and uses a transformer-based conditional Variational Auto-Encoder (c-VAE) trained to generate human motion conditioned on identity features such as a subject's body shape and sex. We take inspiration from a recent 3D human pose and shape estimation method, IPMAN [70], to propose new dynamic intuitive physics (IP) terms that are simple, fully differentiable, and compatible with parametric body models like SMPL [47]. Since IPMAN's IP terms only apply to static 3D poses, they are not suited for dynamic human motion modeling. We go beyond this by proposing general IP terms that are effective for dynamic human motions involving a sequence of poses. We show that these dynamic IP terms are critical to effectively train our model without paired data of differently-shaped people performing the same action. + +Specifically, we propose differentiable physics terms that improve the realism of generated motions by addressing common issues like foot sliding, ground penetration, and unrealistic floating effects. Our key contribution here is a dynamic stability term, that models the interaction between a body's Center of Mass (CoM), Center of Pressure (CoP), and the Zero Moment Point (ZMP). Dynamic stability is a biomechanical concept, frequently employed for ensuring balance in humanoid robots [38], but has also been shown to hold true for human gait [57]. This approach ensures our generated motions are not only visually convincing but also more closely adhere to principles of biomechanics, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in realistic motion generation. + +One of the key applications our model enables is retargeting of animation between characters with different identities. Existing methods typically generate human motions for a canonical body and then use a second character retargeting step to transfer the generated motions to the target body. Since classical + +retargeting methods rely on simple heuristics and ignore body shape, they tend to fail for extreme poses and complex motions involving significant body-ground and self-contact. In contrast, HUMOS effectively learns how people with different body shapes and proportions perform the same motion; see Fig. 1. + +Given an input motion for a particular identity, the HUMOS encoder outputs an encoding in an identity-agnostic latent space. The decoder receives this encoding along with a target identity and outputs a motion that resembles the input motion but as performed by the new identity. We leverage solutions from unpaired image-to-image translation literature [87] to design a self-supervised loss that leverages cyclic consistency within the encoder-decoder step. The cycle-consistent formulation results in realistic motions given a target identity. + +We observe that the cycle-consistency alone is not enough for this task as the network may learn trivial solutions that ignore the target identity and output the same target motion as the source, while still satisfying the cycle consistency constraint. For example, merely copying the source motion to the target body will result in significant foot-sliding, ground penetration, floating, and dynamic instabilities. To prevent this, our key insight is to incorporate our IP and dynamic stability terms as training losses on the generated target body motions. This ensures the generated motions remain physically-plausible and dynamically stable, and encourages the network to use the conditioning body shape. This makes HUMOS the first data-driven human motion model that generates motions that are not only realistic but also physically plausible, dynamically stable, and tailored to the input body shape. + +# 2 Related Work + +We categorize related work into several broad areas: previous works which transfer motion between different skeleton proportions or topologies, works which use physics simulation as a prior to constrain human motion generation, and works which synthesize or generate motion, often conditioned on various different desired parameters. + +Motion Transfer: Most industry methods of transferring motion between two characters assume that characters have either the same skeletal topology (but may differ in bone lengths) or a manual mapping between the two is provided. Motion is then largely transferred directly, without taking into account the further shape or identity difference between the characters. Simple heuristics such as inverse kinematics are used to remove any artifacts [20, 51, 62]. There have been several attempts to apply human motion data to entirely different characters or creatures [1, 76, 85], yet they tend to require paired data to function effectively which can be difficult to obtain at a large scale. Recent methods using Deep Learning have been developed which can transfer motion between different topologies [2, 43] without paired data, or even between entirely new mesh shapes [17]. Similarly, techniques have been developed which can re-target motion from other sources or data representations such as 2D videos [3], or can take into account physical constraints such as floor contacts [13, 72]. However, these + +methods generally do not take into account the character's shape or identity beyond their skeleton proportions. While some attempts have been made to build retargeting systems which take into account character identities [29, 58, 74, 83], these works are limited in scale, and only work on poses or very short windows of motion or on a small number of body types. + +Physics-based Motion Modeling: Physics-based motion generation, particularly through the use of reinforcement learning (RL) within physics engines, has emerged as a prominent method for creating physically plausible humanoid motions. This approach, leveraging RL, navigates the complex solution space of human motion, aiming to produce motions that adhere to physical laws. Common approaches in this direction include the development of locomotion skills and user-controllable policies for character animation through deep RL [14, 50, 52-54, 64, 65, 75]. Despite the principled framework RL offers, it comes with its limitations. The extensive training required due to the high-dimensional space of human motions, the reliance on reward functions over data for motion generation, and the computational expense of physics simulators present significant challenges. Also, these engines are typically non-differentiable black boxes, making them incompatible with data-driven learning frameworks [24, 70]. To overcome these challenges, physics-based trajectory optimization and motion imitation have been applied for 3D human pose estimation, further highlighting the significance of physics in capturing human dynamics [14, 47, 66, 67, 77-79, 81, 82]. These simulators often utilize simplistic, non-differentiable models that fail to capture the intricacies of skin-level contact or muscle activations, leading to motions that, while physically plausible, lack the naturalness, diversity, and expressiveness found in data-driven approaches. We take inspiration from [70] and biomechanical physics terms, and propose to combine the physical plausibility with our data-driven method to generate more accurate and lifelike human motions while considering body shape and physics. + +Data-Driven Human Motion Generation: Early efforts in human motion generation utilized deterministic models, producing single motion outcomes and failing to capture the stochastic nature of human motions [6,11,14,23,27,30-33, 36]. The shift towards deep generative models like GANs and VAEs marked a significant advancement, enabling the modeling of human motions' probabilistic nature conditioned on various inputs such as past motions [7,12,19,21,22,34,35, 68], music or speech [15,28,42,44-46,84], and text or action labels [4,5,16,26,32, 33,55,61]. The introduction of denoising diffusion models [10,18,69] represents a leap forward, merging the strengths of traditional generative models to achieve state-of-the-art performance in motion generation. Despite these advancements, a key challenge in shape conditioning remains: the lack of paired training data between body shape and motions. This leads most data-driven methods to forgo shape conditioning altogether. These approaches typically normalize training data, mainly from the AMASS [49] dataset, to a canonical skeleton or mean body shape [8,9,18,55,56,60,69], successfully learning the manifold of realistic motions for a canonical body, but often at the expense of physical and biomechanical realism. Such simplifications result in pronounced inconsistencies like foot sliding + +and ground penetration, undermining the realism necessary for applications in animation and virtual reality [37, 59]. + +# 3 Method + +Our goal is to learn an identity-conditioned motion model capable of generating 1) realistic, 2) physically-plausible and 3) dynamically-stable human motions. Specifically, we represent a 3D human motion as a sequence of poses $\mathbf{P}_{1:T} = \mathbf{P}_1,\ldots ,\mathbf{P}_T$ , where $T$ denotes the number of frames. We follow prior work [8,9,55,56] and represent each pose $\mathbf{P}$ by the 3D SMPL [47] vertex mesh, $\mathbf{V}(\theta ,\beta ,\mathcal{G})$ . We choose a mesh-based representation as any physical analysis of human motion requires accurate modeling of skin-level surface contact. SMPL is a convenient choice as it parameterizes the 3D mesh into disentangled pose, $\theta$ , body shape, $\beta$ and gender, $\mathcal{G}$ parameters, allowing explicit and independent control over the gender, body shape and pose. For ease of notation, we combine the body shape and gender into a single identity parameter, $\mathcal{I} = (\beta ,\mathcal{G})$ , and use it as the conditioning signal in our motion model. Given the target identity, $\mathcal{I}_t$ and an arbitrary duration T, we generate a sequence consisting of the global root joint position, $\mathbf{x}_t\in \mathbb{R}^3$ and the root-relative joint rotations, $\mathbf{r}_t\in \mathbb{R}^{J\times 6}$ in the 6D rotation representation [86], where $J = 23$ is the number of SMPL joints and one global rotation. Although SMPL uses parent-relative rotations defined on the kinematic chain, we empirically observe that using root-relative joint rotations results in more stable gradients and faster convergence. Consequently, we convert the SMPL parent-relative pose parameters, to root-relative rotations to construct our motion features. Additionally, we process all sequences by removing the z-component of the first-frame root orientation $\mathbf{r}_1^z$ and the horizontal root translation, $\mathbf{x}_1^x$ and $\mathbf{x}_1^y$ . Doing this canonicalizes all sequences to start at the origin with the same forward facing direction and makes network training easier. Please refer to Sup. Mat. for a detailed description of our motion representation. + +# 3.1 HUMOS model architecture + +HUMOS is designed as a conditional Variation Auto-Encoder (c-VAE) network that generates sequential motion features in a non-autoregressive manner where we output motion features for $T$ consecutive frame in one-shot. Our choice of non-autoregressive training is driven by the observation that while auto-regressive approaches are effective in generating simple motions like walking, running, etc., one-shot approaches yield better motion diversity [60]. Consequently, most text-to-motion approaches employ non-autoregressive generative modeling since they focus on generating diverse motions conditioned on text. Following this trend, we use a non-autoregressive training paradigm to output diverse motions conditioned on body shape. We use a Transformer [71] architecture to obtain spatiotemporal embeddings from the input motion features. Next, we describe our motion encoder followed by the motion decoder (see Fig. 2 for an overview). + +![](images/3497de264a30bc5e0e14aec7ce702d9d039412b3a1f4e0de530024cff411687f.jpg) +Fig. 2: Visual representation of our architecture. The Encoder takes as input a motion $M_{\mathcal{A}}$ and its associated identity $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{A}}$ , and outputs a latent (identity invariant) encoding of the motion $z_{M_{\mathcal{A}}}$ . The Decoder takes as input the latent encoding of the motion $z_{M_{\mathcal{A}}}$ , along with a different identity $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{B}}$ , and produces a retargeted motion appropriate for the given identity $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ . The same Encoder and Decoder are used with the original identity to produce a cycle loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ , while a physics loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}}$ ensures the retargeted motion $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ is realistic with respect to the given identity $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{B}}$ and prevents the cycle consistency loss from collapsing to a trivial solution. + +Motion encoder: We extend the Transformer-based VAE motion encoder from TEMOS [56] by conditioning it on identity features, $\mathcal{I}$ . Given a motion sequence $M_A$ of arbitrary length, T, and the conditioning signal, $\mathcal{I}_A$ of the source identity, our encoder $\mathcal{E}$ outputs distribution tokens $\mu$ and $\Sigma$ for the shape-conditioned motion latent space. Using the reparameterization trick [40], we sample the latent vector $z_{M_A} \in R^d$ , embedding the input features into a $d$ -dimensional latent space. To represent the temporal ordering in the input sequence, we use positional encodings in the form of sinusoidal functions and concatenate them with the input features [71]. + +Motion decoder: The decoder takes as input the latent code $z_{M_A}$ and the target identity, $\mathcal{I}_B$ and generates a sequence of 3D poses $\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{1:T}$ representing the source 3D motion as performed by an individual with the target body shape and gender. Our motion decoder $\mathcal{D}$ is built on a Transformer architecture, which incorporates time information through $T$ sinusoidal positional embeddings as queries. A concatenated combination of latent vectors and identity features serves as the key-value pair. Our decoder architecture mirrors the motion encoder, except for the input and output layers. + +# 3.2 Self-supervised shape-conditioned training + +Training a shape-conditioned c-VAE in a fully supervised manner requires paired identity and motion data. While datasets like AMASS [49] contain a large collection of 3D motion capture sequences, often containing diverse motions per + +formed by the same person, we seldom find different identities performing the same motion. Such pairs are essential for any motion model to effectively disambiguate motion from body type. This lack of paired data impedes training a shape-conditioned model. In fact, most existing methods capable of generating human motions ignore the body shape, generating motions only for the canonical skeleton and mean body shape using SMPL's neutral gender body model. + +To circumvent the lack of paired data in AMASS, we draw inspiration from the success in image-to-image translation [87] and use a novel self-supervised training strategy that leverages cycle-consistency in the shape-motion space. As shown in Fig. 2, we randomly sample a motion capture sequence for identity $\mathcal{A}$ and extract motion features $M_{\mathcal{A}}$ comprising the global root-joint translation $\mathbf{x}_{\mathcal{A}}$ and the root-relative joint rotations $\mathbf{r}_{\mathcal{A}}$ . We project the identity features, $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{A}} = (\beta_{\mathcal{A}}, \mathcal{G}_{\mathcal{A}})$ using a linear layer. The identity features are concatenated with the motion features and fed to the motion encoder which embeds them in a shape-agnostic latent code, $z_{M_{\mathcal{A}}}$ . The HUMOS decoder takes the latent code $z_{M_{\mathcal{A}}} = \mathcal{E}(M_{\mathcal{A}}, \mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{A}})$ as input and a randomly sampled target identity, $\mathcal{B}$ , with the projected $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{B}}$ as the new conditioning input to the decoder. The task of the decoder is to generate the root-joint translations $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ and the joint rotations $\hat{\mathbf{r}}_{\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ representing $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}} = \mathcal{D}(z_{M_{\mathcal{A}}}, \mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{B}})$ , i.e. the motion $M_{\mathcal{A}}$ in the style of the identity of $\mathcal{B}$ . + +Since we lack any explicit ground truth to supervise $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{B}}$ , as illustrated in Fig. 2, we employ cycle-consistency by reversing the forward step, this time using $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ as the source motion and $\mathcal{A}$ as the target identity. We input $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}}$ and $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{B}}$ to the HUMOS encoder and extract latent code, $z_{\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}}}$ . The latent code, along with projected $\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{A}}$ are fed to the decoder resulting in $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{A}} = \mathcal{D}(z_{\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}}},\mathcal{I}_{\mathcal{A}})$ . In the full cycle, since the motion style remains the same even as identities change, the same identity features should result in the same motion. Consequently, the reconstructed $\hat{M}_{\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{A}}$ should match the source motion $M_{\mathcal{A}}$ and we define the cycle-consistency loss as $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}} = \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{rot}} + \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{pos}}$ where $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{rot}}$ computes the geodesic distance in the rotational space by converting 6D joint rotations, $\mathbf{r}_{t_A}$ and $\hat{\mathbf{r}}_{t_{\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{A}}}$ to rotation matrices $R_{t_A}$ and $\hat{R}_{t_{\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{A}}}$ using the Gram-Schmidt process [86]. $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{pos}}$ is the smooth L1 loss between source and reconstructed root joint positions, $\mathbf{x}_{t_A}$ and $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{t_{\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{A}}}$ , Specifically, + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {c y c l e}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {r o t}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p o s}} \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {r o t}} = \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \operatorname {a r c c o s} \frac {\operatorname {T r} \left(R _ {t , \mathcal {A}} \left(\hat {R} _ {t , \mathcal {A} \rightarrow \mathcal {A}}\right) ^ {- 1}\right) - 1}{2}, \quad \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p o s}} = \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \| \mathbf {x} _ {t, \mathcal {A}} - \hat {\mathbf {x}} _ {t, \mathcal {A} \rightarrow \mathcal {A}} \| _ {1}. \tag {2} +$$ + +# 3.3 Intuitive-physics (IP) terms + +Our motion encoder aggregates spatio-temporal features over successive frames to learn a shape-agnostic latent embedding by disentangling the motion "style" + +from identity-specific attributes. The decoder, in turn, leverages the shape-agnostic latent code and maps the motion style to a new target body. While intuitive, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ , however, is not enough as training with only $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ is prone to trivial solutions. Without special care, the encoder-decoder architecture could learn to generate identical motion $M_A \approx \hat{M}_{A \to B} \approx \hat{M}_{A \to A}$ at intermediate steps, ignoring the identity conditioning while naively minimizing $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ . To alleviate this, as shown in Fig. 2, we incorporate intuitive physics terms $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}}$ on $\hat{M}_{A \to B}$ that address physical inconsistencies such as ground penetration, floating meshes and foot sliding. If HUMOS naively copies the same source motion $M_A$ on the target body $\mathcal{B}$ , it would result in motions $\hat{M}_{A \to B}$ that have significant ground penetration, floating meshes and foot sliding. + +Our intuitive physics terms are fast, simple and fully-differentiable. Following [80], we design IP terms to address penetration, float, and foot sliding individually. Our $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{penetrate}}$ minimizes the per-frame distance of the lowest vertex below the ground from the ground plane. $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{float}}$ minimizes the per-frame distance of the lowest vertex above the ground from the ground plane. The foot sliding loss, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{slide}}$ , minimizes the horizontal x-y component of the foot joint velocities if they are determined to be in ground contact using a distance threshold from the ground. We collate them together as $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}} = \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{penetrate}} + \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{float}} + \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{slide}}$ . + +# 3.4 Dynamic stability term + +In the real world, motion is the result of internal muscular forces and external forces acting on the body and the surrounding scene. Human bodies are typically stable, i.e. they have the ability to control their body position and momentum during movement without falling over. + +Tripathi et al. [70] successfully use the notion of static stability in 3D human pose and shape estimation to output physically-plausible and biomechanically stable poses from RGB images. In static poses, a body is considered stable if the gravity-projection of the center of mass (CoM) onto the ground is within the base of support (BoS). The base of support is defined as the convex hull of all points in contact with the ground. Since the base of support requires a convex hull computation that is not easily differentiable, [70] minimize the distance between an estimated center of pressure (CoP) and the projected CoM instead, and use it as a proxy static stability loss or energy term which is minimized during training and optimization. However, this static treatment of stability is only applicable to static poses. Humans are highly dynamic by nature and we need a general treatment of stability analysis that extends to all scenarios involving human movement and locomotion. + +Dynamic stability extends this concept to bodies in motion. We follow the concept of zero-moment point (ZMP) [73], which has been widely used in robotics and biomechanics [41, 57]. Assuming flat ground, the ZMP is the point on the ground where the horizontal component of the moment of ground reaction force is zero. If this point lies within the base of support, the ZMP is equivalent to the center of pressure and the motion is considered dynamically stable (see Sup. Mat. video for an example in human gait). + +The ZMP is defined as a function of the CoM's acceleration and the net moment torques along the CoM and can be computed in closed form in a fully differentiable manner: + +$$ +\mathcal {Z} = \mathcal {C} _ {m} - \frac {n \times \mathcal {M} _ {\mathcal {C} _ {m}} ^ {g i}}{\mathcal {F} ^ {g i} \cdot n} \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{C}_m$ is the projection of the center of mass onto the ground plane, and $n$ is the normal to the ground plane. $\mathcal{F}^{gi}$ is a force of inertia calculated as + +$$ +\mathcal {F} ^ {g i} = m g - m a _ {\mathcal {G}} \tag {4} +$$ + +with $m$ being the total mass of the body, $g$ the acceleration of gravity, and $a_{\mathcal{G}}$ the acceleration of the center of mass $\mathcal{G}$ . $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{C}_m}^{gi}$ is the moment around the projected center of mass $\mathcal{C}_m$ + +$$ +\mathcal {M} _ {\mathcal {C} _ {m}} ^ {g i} = \overrightarrow {\mathcal {C} _ {m} \mathcal {G}} \times m g - \overrightarrow {\mathcal {C} _ {m} \mathcal {G}} \times m a _ {\mathcal {G}} - \dot {\mathcal {H}} _ {\mathcal {G}} \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\dot{\mathcal{H}}_{\mathcal{G}}$ is the rate of change of angular momentum or torque at the center of mass. + +We calculate the total body mass $m$ by using the volume of the SMPL mesh as a proxy for total weight. To calculate center of mass $\mathcal{G}$ and its acceleration as well as the moment $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{C}_m}^{gi}$ , we distribute the total mass $m$ to point masses at the vertices of the body mesh proportional to the volume of the body part they are part of. The accelerations are calculated numerically using the central differences. Please refer to Sup. Mat. for detailed derivations of the formulas. + +Similar to Tripathi et al. [70] we use an estimation of the center of pressure as proxy for calculating the distance to the base of support. The center of pressure $\mathcal{C}_P$ is calculated as weighted average of all vertices close to ground plane in a frame. + +For dynamically stable motions, the ZMP and CoP should coincide. We, therefore, minimize the distance between ZMP and CoP and define our dynamic stability loss as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {d y n}} = \rho (\| \mathcal {C} _ {P} - \mathcal {Z} \| _ {2}) \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\rho$ is the Geman-McClure penalty function [25] which stabilizes training by making $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dyn}}$ robust to noisy ZMP estimates. + +Dynamic stability computation requires ground support. For sequences where the human is not supported by the ground, i.e. lowest vertex $>25$ cm, we disable the dynamic stability term during training. Thus, although the dynamic stability term is designed to help grounded sequences, it does not hurt non-grounded ones. + +# 3.5 Latent embedding losses + +To enable motion generation at inference time, we regularize the distributions of the latent embedding spaces, $z_{M_A} = \mathcal{N}(\mu_A,\Sigma_A)$ and $z_{M_{A\to B}} = \mathcal{N}(\mu_{A\to B},\Sigma_{A\to B})$ to be similar to the normal distribution $\psi = \mathcal{N}(0,I)$ by minimizing the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence via + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {K L}} = \mathrm {K L} \left(z _ {M _ {A}}, \psi\right) + \mathrm {K L} \left(z _ {M _ {A \rightarrow B}}, \psi\right) \tag {7} +$$ + +Since the HUMOS latent embeddings encode motion style rather than identity-specific attributes, we also encourage the embeddings $z_{M_A} \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu_A, \Sigma_A)$ and $z_{M_{A \to B}} \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu_{A \to B}, \Sigma_{A \to B})$ to be as close as possible to each other via the following cycle-consistent L1 loss: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {E}} = \left\| z _ {M _ {A}} - z _ {M _ {A \rightarrow B}} \right\| _ {1} \tag {8} +$$ + +The resulting total loss in HUMOS training is the weighted sum of all the individual loss terms: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \lambda_ {\text {c y c l e}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c y c l e}} + \lambda_ {\text {p h y s i c s}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p h y s i c s}} + \lambda_ {\text {d y n}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d y n}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {K L}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {K L}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {E}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {E}} \tag {9} +$$ + +The loss weights are determined empirically and set to $\lambda_{\mathrm{cycle}} = 1$ , $\lambda_{\mathrm{physics}} = 1$ , $\lambda_{\mathrm{dyn}} = 0.0001$ , $\lambda_{\mathrm{KL}} = 10^{-5}$ and $\lambda_{\mathrm{E}} = 10^{-2}$ . + +# 4 Experiments + +We first discuss our data processing and implementation details in (Sec. 4.1). Next, we introduce baselines and the evaluation metrics (Sec. 4.2) used in our comparisons. Then, we discuss quantitative, perceptual and qualitative comparisons of our method with baselines (Sec. 4.3) and present an ablation study (Sec. 4.4). + +# 4.1 Data and implementation details + +For training, we use the AMASS dataset which contains 480 unique gender identities out of which 274 are male and 206 are female with diverse body shapes and sizes. Please refer to Sup. Mat. for a full analysis on the diversity and distribution of body shape $\beta$ parameters in AMASS. We first subsample raw SMPL-H sequences from AMASS [49] to 20 fps following Guo et al. [32]. We augment the data by mirroring sequences left-to-right. We exclude sequences where the feet are more than $20~\mathrm{cm}$ above the ground and where the lowest vertex across all frames is not grounded. This is to ensure ground support as it is an essential component for dynamic stability. We observed that normalizing sequences for consistent facing and start position in the first frame helped with training. We then extract input features by converting the root orientation and joint rotations to 6D form [86] and concatenate root translation, betas and gender. In addition, we augment the AMASS dataset by applying left-right flip augmentation to the pose parameters, effectively doubling the amount of training data. We show a step-by-step visualization of our data-processing pipeline in Sup. Mat. $^1$ + +We train our models for 1300 epochs with the AdamW [39,48] optimizer using a fixed learning rate $10^{-5}$ and a batch size of 60. Both our encoder and decoder consist of 6 transformer layers. We train with sequence length $\mathrm{T} = 200$ frames on + +arbitrary length clips sampled from AMASS. For clips longer or shorter than T frames, we extend or clip the sampling interval by either including neighboring frames or dropping boundary frames. For short AMASS videos with $< \mathrm{T}$ frames, we repeat the last frame. Please refer to Sup. Mat. for more details. + +# 4.2 Baselines and evaluation metrics + +We focus on the task of shape-conditioned motion reconstruction for evaluating the performance of HUMOS. Since no existing baseline directly addresses shape-conditioned motion reconstruction, we create new baselines by combining a state-of-the-art motion generation model, TEMOS [56] and retargeting its output motions to a target body shape using 1) naïve retargeting and 2) using the commercial retargeting system, Rokoko [62]. For these experiments, we reconstruct the same motions from the AMASS test-split for both the TEMOS baselines and HUMOS. + +TEMOS generates motions for a canonicalized mean-shape SMPL body by directly regressing the pose and global root-joint translation. For a fair comparison, we use its "unconditional" variant which does not require any text inputs. For obtaining motions for a target body, we do simple retargeting where we randomly sample identities from AMASS and naively copy the target $\beta_{B}$ and gender $\mathcal{G}_{\mathcal{B}}$ parameters to the motions obtained from TEMOS. We call this baseline, "TEMOS-Simple". Intuitively, naively copying a new identity to a neutral mean-shape body motion will result in ground penetration, floating and foot sliding artefacts. We address ground penetration by translating the whole motion sequence such that the lowest vertex in the sequence is on the ground. We refer to this baseline as "TEMOS-Simple-G". For another strong baseline, we use the Rokoko retargeting system to retarget TEMOS generated motions to the target body. We call this baseline "TEMOS-Rokoko", with "TEMOS-Rokoko-G" being the variant where we ground the Rokoko output sequences as described above. For consistency in evaluation, given an input motion, we sample the same target identities across our method and all baselines. + +Evaluation Metrics. For evaluating the physical plausibility of generated motions, we use the physics-based metrics suggested by Yuan et al. [80]. The Penetrate metric measures ground penetration by computing the distance (in cm) between the ground and the lowest body mesh vertex below the ground. Float measuring the amount of unsupported floating by computing the distance (in cm) between the ground and the lowest body mesh vertex above the ground. Skate measures foot skating by computing the percentage of adjacent frames where the foot joints in contact with the ground have a non-zero average velocity. We also report two metrics for measuring dynamic stability. Dyn. Stability computes the percentage of frames where the ZMP is outside the base of support. The BoSDist metric measures the distance of the ZMP to the closest edge of the BoS convex hull, if the ZMP lies outside the BoS, indicating the pose is dynamically unstable. For details, please refer to Sup. Mat. + +# 4.3 Comparison to baselines + +![](images/c2712fe11b4cacee7caaac4e37db2cc8df00bb0e939ab8ec6811cd07eff75ae7.jpg) +Fig. 3: Qualitative comparison of shape-conditioned motion generation. Each row represents generations across different methods for a unique body shape and gender. HUMOS generated motions are more realistic, physically plausible and dynamically stable compared to baselines. The red circles on the baseline methods highlight issues such as floating, penetrations, and foot skating, compared to more realistic results on highlighted in green with HUMOS. Q Zoom in. + +Quantitative. We summarize our main results in Tab. 1. As we lack ground-truth motions for the target body shape, we rely on physics and stability metrics to compare our method with baselines. Our method substantially outperforms on all metrics except on Penetrate. As expected, the lowest ground penetration is observed for TEMOS-Simple-G and TEMOS-Rokoko-G as both were specifically altered to ground the sequence. However, this comes at the cost of increasing the Float metric. In contrast, HUMOS simultaneously improves both Penetrate and Float indicating that the network learns to modify body pose (e.g. foot tilt) in addition to learning the correct global translation for grounding the motion. HUMOS also improves over baselines on foot skating, achieving a $\sim 7.3\%$ Skate compared to $20\%$ and $27\%$ for the TEMOS-Rokoko and TEMOS-Simple baselines. HUMOS's motions are also dynamically stable in $71.9\%$ of all frames, a significant improvement of $16\%$ over the closest baseline. Even for dynamically unstable poses, when the ZMP is outside the BoS, it is close to the BoS edge as indicated by the low BoSDict metric for our method. + +Qualitative. We provide additional qualitative comparisons with baselines in Fig. 3. Each row represents the same pair of source motion and target body across all methods.

We randomly select 30 videos generated from our method and the next closest baselines, "TEMOS-Rokoko" and "TEMOS-Rokoko-G". The participants are shown a single video and after watching the whole video at least once, are allowed to select their response to the question "How realistic is the motion given this body shape?" on a Likert scale of scores between 5 (completely realistic) to 1 (completely unrealistic). Each rating task was completed by 25 participants. In the study, we added 4 catch trials, 2 containing ground-truth AMASS motions and 2 containing significant ground penetration. 17 out of 75 participants who failed the catch trials were excluded from our study. As shown in Tab. 2 participants prefer HUMOS motions and give it an average rating of 3.64 out of 5, compared to 3.25 for TEMOS-Rokoko and 3.19 for TEMOS-Rokoko-G. Curiously, between the two baselines, participants preferred the motions without a heuristics-based grounding indicating that the use of heuristics for motion retargeting struggles with generalization. We include more details about the study and layout in Sup. Mat. + +Table 2: Perceptual study comparing HUMOS with two closest baselines.

+ +# 4.4 Ablation Study + +We evaluate the importance of our key contributions, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ , $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dyn}}$ in Tab. 3. As shown, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ alone achieves a significant $\sim 33\%$ improvement in + +Penetrate, $\sim 32\%$ in Float, $\sim 25\%$ in Skate over the TEMOS-Rokoko baseline indicating that our cycle-consistent training paradigm is effective in training HUMOS for the shape-conditioned motion generation task. Adding $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}}$ further improves physical plausibility, resulting in the biggest improvement in foot skating ( $\sim 47\%$ ). While both $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}}$ help, adding $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dyn}}$ results in the best HUMOS configuration across all metrics. With all losses active, HUMOS motions are dynamically stable $71.9\%$ the times. + +Table 3: Ablation study comparing the improvements from cycle-consistent training $(\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cycle}})$ , physics losses $(\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{physics}})$ and the dynamic stability term $(\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dyn}})$ . + +

+ +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper we presented a method for shape-conditioned motion generation that used a set of physically inspired constraints to allow for self-supervised disentanglement of character motion and identity. This allows for motion generation and retargeting of a higher quality than previous methods both qualitatively and quantitatively. + +In terms of limitations, although our method represents an improvement over previous work there are still motion artefacts introduced by the model. Additionally, the differences in the style of motion produced by characters of very different body shapes remain subtle. This may be due to the limited shape diversity in the training set. In the future it would be interesting to examine how this data distribution affects the diversity and generalization capabilities of the model. We also do not take into account self-penetrations that may arise during shape-conditioned motion generation. Addressing this would be another promising direction for future work. While human motion is influenced by both body shape and individual motion style, we only consider body shape. Motion style includes factors like emotional state, physiological impediments, societal influences, and personal biases, which are not annotated in existing mocap datasets. With style-specific annotations, it would be useful to extend HUMOS to include style attributes as additional conditioning signals. + +Acknowledgements.

Generating realistic human motion is crucial for many computer vision and graphics applications. The rich diversity of human body shapes and sizes significantly influences how people move. However, existing motion models typically overlook these differences, using a normalized, average body instead. This results in a homogenization of motion across human bodies, with motions not aligning with their physical attributes, thus limiting diversity. To address this, we propose a novel approach to learn a generative motion model conditioned on body shape. We demonstrate that it is possible to learn such a model from unpaired training data using cycle consistency, intuitive physics, and stability constraints that model the correlation between identity and movement.

There have been several attempts to apply human motion data to entirely different characters or creatures [1, 76, 85], yet they tend to require paired data to function effectively which can be difficult to obtain at a large scale.

Common approaches in this direction include the development of locomotion skills and user-controllable policies for character animation through deep RL [14, 50, 52-54, 64, 65, 75]. Despite the principled framework RL offers, it comes with its limitations. The extensive training required due to the high-dimensional space of human motions, the reliance on reward functions over data for motion generation, and the computational expense of physics simulators present significant challenges. Also, these engines are typically non-differentiable black boxes, making them incompatible with data-driven learning frameworks [24, 70]. To overcome these challenges, physics-based trajectory optimization and motion imitation have been applied for 3D human pose estimation, further highlighting the significance of physics in capturing human dynamics [14, 47, 66, 67, 77-79, 81, 82]. These simulators often utilize simplistic, non-differentiable models that fail to capture the intricacies of skin-level contact or muscle activations, leading to motions that, while physically plausible, lack the naturalness, diversity, and expressiveness found in data-driven approaches.

This leads most data-driven methods to forgo shape conditioning altogether.

[70] successfully use the notion of static stability in 3D human pose and shape estimation to output physically-plausible and biomechanically stable poses from RGB images. In static poses, a body is considered stable if the gravity-projection of the center of mass (CoM) onto the ground is within the base of support (BoS). The base of support is defined as the convex hull of all points in contact with the ground. Since the base of support requires a convex hull computation that is not easily differentiable, [70] minimize the distance between an estimated center of pressure (CoP) and the projected CoM instead, and use it as a proxy static stability loss or energy term which is minimized during training and optimization. However, this static treatment of stability is only applicable to static poses.

For evaluating the physical plausibility of generated motions, we use the physics-based metrics suggested by Yuan et al. [80]. The Penetrate metric measures ground penetration by computing the distance (in cm) between the ground and the lowest body mesh vertex below the ground. Float measuring the amount of unsupported floating by computing the distance (in cm) between the ground and the lowest body mesh vertex above the ground. Skate measures foot skating by computing the percentage of adjacent frames where the foot joints in contact with the ground have a non-zero average velocity. We also report two metrics for measuring dynamic stability. Dyn. Stability computes the percentage of frames where the ZMP is outside the base of support.

We also do not take into account self-penetrations that may arise during shape-conditioned motion generation. Addressing this would be another promising direction for future work. While human motion is influenced by both body shape and individual motion style, we only consider body shape. Motion style includes factors like emotional state, physiological impediments, societal influences, and personal biases, which are not annotated in existing mocap datasets. With style-specific annotations, it would be useful to extend HUMOS to include style attributes as additional conditioning signals." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Acknowledgements.

Recent advancement in the large-scale image-text pre-training model (such as CLIP) has significantly improved unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) by leveraging the pre-trained knowledge to bridge the source and target domain gap. However, Catastrophic forgetting still remains to be the main challenge, since traditional fine-tuning method to adjust CLIP model weights on a target domain can quickly override CLIP's pre-trained knowledge. To address the above issue, we propose to convert CLIP's features into high-dimensional vector (hypervector) space to utilize the robustness property of hypervector. We first study the feature dimension size in the hypervector space to empirically find the dimension threshold that allows enough feature patterns to be redundant to avoid excessive training (thus mitigating catastrophic forgetting). To further utilize the robustness of hypervector, we propose Discrepancy Reduction to reduce the domain shift between source and target domains, and Feature Augmentation to synthesize labeled target domain features from source domain features. We achieved the best results on four public UDA datasets, and showed the generalization of our method to other applications (few-shot learning, continual learning).

Mitigating catastrophic forgetting comes with a cost, for example, SKD has to re-fine-tune CLIP 5 times, resulting in 5x slower training speed (fine-tune and reset the weight, but keep the pseudo-label from the previous round of fine-tuning), in order to improve pseudo-label quality (higher pseudo-label quality requires less training iterations, and less training iterations leads to less catastrophic forgetting).

Recent advancement in the large-scale image-text pre-training model (such as CLIP) has significantly improved unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) by leveraging the pre-trained knowledge to bridge the source and target domain gap. However, Catastrophic forgetting still remains to be the main challenge, since traditional fine-tuning method to adjust CLIP model weights on a target domain can quickly override CLIP's pre-trained knowledge. To address the above issue, we propose to convert CLIP's features into high-dimensional vector (hypervector) space to utilize the robustness property of hypervector. We first study the feature dimension size in the hypervector space to empirically find the dimension threshold that allows enough feature patterns to be redundant to avoid excessive training (thus mitigating catastrophic forgetting). To further utilize the robustness of hypervector, we propose Discrepancy Reduction to reduce the domain shift between source and target domains, and Feature Augmentation to synthesize labeled target domain features from source domain features. We achieved the best results on four public UDA datasets, and showed the generalization of our method to other applications (few-shot learning, continual learning).

Mitigating catastrophic forgetting comes with a cost, for example, SKD has to re-fine-tune CLIP 5 times, resulting in 5x slower training speed (fine-tune and reset the weight, but keep the pseudo-label from the previous round of fine-tuning), in order to improve pseudo-label quality (higher pseudo-label quality requires less training iterations, and less training iterations leads to less catastrophic forgetting). PADCLIP proposed catastrophic forgetting measurement (CFM) in the image space (by measuring the prediction difference between weak and strong image augmentations) to adjust the learning rate without decreasing the training speed.

Recent advancement in the large-scale image-text pre-training model (such as CLIP) has significantly improved unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) by leveraging the pre-trained knowledge to bridge the source and target domain gap. However, Catastrophic forgetting still remains to be the main challenge, since traditional fine-tuning method to adjust CLIP model weights on a target domain can quickly override CLIP's pre-trained knowledge. To address the above issue, we propose to convert CLIP's features into high-dimensional vector (hypervector) space to utilize the robustness property of hypervector. We first study the feature dimension size in the hypervector space to empirically find the dimension threshold that allows enough feature patterns to be redundant to avoid excessive training (thus mitigating catastrophic forgetting). To further utilize the robustness of hypervector, we propose Discrepancy Reduction to reduce the domain shift between source and target domains, and Feature Augmentation to synthesize labeled target domain features from source domain features. We achieved the best results on four public UDA datasets, and showed the generalization of our method to other applications (few-shot learning, continual learning). The proposed method also shows model-agnostic property across vision-language and vision backbones. + +# 1 Introduction + +Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) proposes to mitigate the domain shift issue [65] by transferring the knowledge from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. Past UDA works either focus on reducing the domain shift between source and target domains (discrepancy-based method) [10] and/or synthesizing the labeled target domain from the source domain (synthetic method) [55]. Recent UDA works [2, 19, 20, 50, 58] leverage the large-scale pretraining as a new paradigm for UDA and significantly outperform the previous work. For example, SKD [58] shows that CLIP [41], even without fine-tuning (zero-shot prediction), can achieve $+14\%$ accuracy on DomainNet [39]) compared to SSRT [49] and CDTrans [60], which were pre-trained on ImageNet and fine-tuned on UDA dataset. The improvement of CLIP is due to the pre-training on millions or even billions image-text pairs [45]. However, such large-scale pretraining is prone to catastrophic forgetting where the traditional fine-tuning can + +![](images/4819288d2c95ca4503a5997edfeefe731327c90c99c0fa33e8986b20f3bcfc98.jpg) +Fig. 1: Overview. For the source domain, we convert labels and domain names into prompts and train CLIP supervisedly to match the image feature to the text feature of the class label. For the target domain, we use zero-shot prediction to obtain pseudolabels for unsupervised learning. We propose to utilize the robustness of hypervector to perform: Forgetting Reduction (constrain fine-tuned features on original CLIP's prediction features), Discrepancy Reduction (mitigate domain shift between source and target features), and Feature Augmentation (synthesize labeled target domain feature from the source domain). + +quickly override CLIP's pre-trained knowledge and decrease the accuracy by half [20]. + +Mitigating catastrophic forgetting is a requirement for leveraging CLIP in UDA. Most methods [2, 19, 50] chose the simplest way of freezing the vision encoder in CLIP to avoid fine-tuning, and therefore avoiding catastrophic forgetting. However, by carefully adjusting the learning rate (PADCLIP) [20], or using self-knowledge distillation (SKD, use original pre-trained CLIP as a regularization) [58], both methods show $+6\%$ accuracy on VISDA-2017 [40] vs. frozen vision encoder. Mitigating catastrophic forgetting comes with a cost, for example, SKD has to re-fine-tune CLIP 5 times, resulting in 5x slower training speed (fine-tune and reset the weight, but keep the pseudo-label from the previous round of fine-tuning), in order to improve pseudo-label quality (higher pseudo-label quality requires less training iterations, and less training iterations leads to less catastrophic forgetting). PADCLIP proposed catastrophic forgetting measurement (CFM) in the image space (by measuring the prediction difference between weak and strong image augmentations) to adjust the learning rate without decreasing the training speed. However, PADCLIP's dependency on image space breaks the assumption of traditional UDA works that operate in the feature space (e.g., the discrepancy-based method minimizes the distance between source and target features, and the synthetic method synthesizes target features from source features). + +One of the root causes of catastrophic forgetting is the lack of robustness of the features (a slight change of features after fine-tuning can lead to a different prediction). Instead of remediating the catastrophic forgetting symptom by + +![](images/0510559aec9f6fd8832178d7d6a4b09800309c14b553aa21b71eecfbe104edc0.jpg) +Fig. 2: Catastrophic Forgetting. We naively fine-tune CLIP (ResNet-101) on VisDA-2017 source and target domain training set, and test on the target domain validation set. CLIP forgot the pre-trained knowledge (accuracy $-25\%$ ), but PADCLIP and our method can mitigate this ( $+3.7\%$ and $+4.2\%$ respectively). However, Discrepancy Reduction (DR) and Feature Augmentation (FA) are not compatible with PADCLIP ( $-14\%$ due to the image space dependency), while ours is compatible ( $+2.6\%$ ). + +adjusting the learning rate or adding regularization, we seek to convert CLIP features into a more robust feature space in the beginning. We propose to fine-tune CLIP in the high-dimensional vector (hypervector) space [13]. Hypervector achieves robustness by introducing redundancy into the feature representation. During the fine-tuning, if CLIP matches the text and image features correctly or makes a small mistake, the hypervectors of these features are likely to be redundant which leads to a small loss (in other words, the loss can only be large when the prediction has a significant error). This is similar to CFM in PADCLIP where CFM aims to lower the learning rate from weak augmentation example (which PADCLIP is likely to predict correctly), and lowering the learning rate (or decreasing loss) will lead to less catastrophic forgetting. The key difference is that hypervector operates in the feature space, so it is compatible with discrepancy-based and synthetic methods, while PADCLIP is not compatible. + +We formulate the discrepancy-based and synthetic methods in CLIP by proposing Forgetting Reduction (FR, we minimize the original and fine-tuned CLIP features), Discrepancy Reduction (DR, we minimize the cosine distance between source and target features), and Feature Augmentation (FA, we trained a generator to synthesize labeled target domain features from source domain features) in hypervector space. Fig. 2 shows that PADCLIP's CFM is not effective enough to reduce catastrophic forgetting beyond the traditional fine-tuning, and adding both methods leads to $-14\%$ accuracy drops, while ours is compatible $(+2.6\%$ accuracy). We achieved the best results on DomainNet [39], VisDA-2017 [40], Office-Home [54], and Office-31 [44]. Our method achieves the best results on CLIP with ResNet-50, ResNet-101, and ViT B/16 backbone. Our method is model-agnostic where it supports a vision-language model (CLIP) and vision models (BiT [17], DeiT [52]). Beyond UDA, we show the effectiveness of catastrophic forgetting mitigation by our method in the continual learn + +ing setting (accuracy $+2.4\%$ on CIFAR-100 and $+1.3\%$ on TinyImageNet), and few-shot learning setting $(+1.5\%$ vs. TIP-Adapterer-F [64]). + +- We proposed a Forgetting Reduction (FR) with hypervectors in CLIP to mitigate catastrophic forgetting by utilizing the robustness of high-dimensional vectors to regularize the fine-tuned vs. original prediction. We show the evidence by studying the hypervector dimension size vs. the accuracy drops due to catastrophic forgetting. +- We proposed Discrepancy Reduction (DR) and Feature Augmentation (FA) to formulate the traditional UDA methods (discrepancy-based and synthetic methods) in the CLIP setting.

Beyond UDA, our method supports few-shot learning and continual learning, and our method is model-agnostic (supports both vision-language and vision model). + +# 2 Related Works + +Unsupervised Domain Adaptation adapts labeled source domain to unlabeled target domain. Discrepancy-based method reduces the divergence between source and target domains by regularizing them into the same distribution [23, 31, 48], or applying adversarial loss to obtain domain-agnostic features [22, 30, 31, 42, 48, 53]. For example, CAN [14] pushes source and target domain features into the same distribution by a contrastive loss, and DM-ADA [59] mixes up source and target domain features during adversarial training to achieve continuous features regardless of the domain. Data augmentation method synthesizes labeled target domain images/features to augment training data [55, 56]. For example, GFCA [11] trains a generator in a few-shot manner to synthesize cross-domain features. Our method enables discrepancy-based method and feature augmentation for CLIP [41] in UDA. + +Vision Transformer (ViT) in UDA has an advantage of feature alignment as ViT [8] is more robust to noise than CNN [33]. Recent works [42, 49, 61] use ViT-B/16 to achieve better performance than CNN. CDTrans [60] proposes cross-attention to further align the source and target domain features, and PMTrans [68] proposes a lightweight version of CDTrans by mixing image patches from the source and the target domain. CLIP [41] adds a text encoder to ViT-B/16 to formulate a vision-language model and is the foundation of recent works [2, 19, 20, 50, 58]. Several improvements were proposed on top of CLIP, including, catastrophic forgetting measurement [20] or self-knowledge distillation [58] to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, Prompt Task-dependent Tuning [21] to learn prompt for each domain and class, memory-aware knowledge adaptor to encourage pseudo-label of the confidence classes, and incorporating LLM [2] to broaden the pre-training knowledge. We follow the previous methods above + +![](images/66d4b3396e59ea29772b2ef168a479b5aded41ec4a3ca3cc0ab9f3bd7c784233.jpg) +Fig. 3: Feature Visualization. We use Painting $\rightarrow$ ClipArt from DomainNet to visualize CLIP features from the naively fine-tuned model vs. our method. Our method's feature map has a higher similarity between the source and the target domain, thanks to Discrepancy Reduction and Feature Augmentation, which allows better utilization of labeled source domain knowledge. + +to use ViT-B/16, and in theory, our improvement is orthogonal and compatible by converting CLIP features into hypervectors before applying each method. + +Pseudo-label in UDA uses a trained model (on labeled source domain) to generate pseudo labels on unlabeled target domain [2,19,20,25,29,49,50,58,60,69]. Consistency regularization on pseudo-labels [16,47,63] ensures the consistency between the perturbed views of each training sample to promote the prediction consistency on the unlabeled training data. Inter-class bias in pseudo-labeling is caused by the prediction error from classes with similar appearance (e.g., dog vs. wolf), and DebiasPL [21] proposed to mitigate inter-class bias by causal inference. PADCLIP follows DebiasPL to introduce pseudo-label into CLIP for UDA. Our method also leverages pseudo-label. + +Hypervector is robust to noise due to the high capacity of high-dimensional vector and hypervector is well-studied in Cognitive Science [13]. For Computer Vision, hypervector is used in object recognition [38], visual question answering [36], and scene transformation [15]. Recently, VSAIT [51] proposed to learn a feature mapping in hypervector space, and show the robustness such that hypervector can tolerate the different image contents (e.g., source image contains a tree, but target image contains sky) to perform synthetic image generation. Different from VSAIT, we proposed hypervector for UDA (image classification) to mitigate catastrophic forgetting and enable CLIP fine-tuning with our Discrepancy Reduction and Feature Augmentation. + +# 3 Methodology + +# 3.1 Formulation of CLIP in UDA + +Given $N_{s}$ labeled source domain $D_{s} = \{x_{i}^{s},y_{i}^{s}\}_{i = 1}^{N_{s}}$ and $N_{t}$ unlabeled target domain $D_{t} = \{x_{i}^{t}\}_{i = 1}^{N_{t}}$ , we formulate image-text pairs for CLIP by converting a + +label into a prompt in the format of "a [DOMAIN] of a [CLASS]" (e.g., a real photo of a car). The probability of an image belonging to class $k$ is calculated by forwarding image and prompt $(\tau)$ from all $K$ classes to CLIP's vision $(f)$ and text encoder $(g)$ and applying softmax: + +$$ +\ddot {p} (\hat {y} _ {i} = k | x _ {i}) = \frac {\exp \left(\cos \left(g \left(\tau_ {k}\right) , f \left(x _ {i}\right) / T\right)\right)}{\sum_ {z = 1} ^ {K} \exp \left( \right.\cos \left(g \left(\tau_ {z}\right) , f \left(x _ {i}\right) / T\right)} \tag {1} +$$ + +where $T$ is the temperature parameter learned by CLIP, $\cos$ is a cosine similarity [41], and we denote a vector of $\ddot{p}_k$ as $p$ (probability of a sample in a minibatch $B$ ). The supervised training loss for a labeled source domain $(L_s)$ is the cross-entropy $(\mathbf{H})$ between model prediction and label: + +$$ +L _ {s} = \frac {1}{B} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \mathbf {H} \left(y _ {i} ^ {s} \mid p \left(x _ {i} ^ {s}\right)\right) \tag {2} +$$ + +The unsupervised training loss $(L_{u})$ is formulated by using the model's prediction from an unlabeled target domain $(q = p(x^{t}))$ as a soft pseudo-label to convert into a hard pseudo-label by a one-hot encoder $(\mathbb{1})$ , and use a fixed threshold $(\tau = 0.4)$ to select high confident pseudo-labels. + +$$ +L _ {u} = \frac {1}{B} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \mathbb {1} [ \max (q _ {i}) \geq \tau ] \cdot \mathbf {H} (\operatorname {a r g m a x} (q _ {i}) | q _ {i}) \tag {3} +$$ + +# 3.2 Hypervector Space Conversion + +We convert CLIP's features into hypervector space with Random Projection (RP) like Local Sensitivity Hashing (LSH) [38]. RP projects and normalizes the features using a random matrix where each row is sampled from a standard normal distribution and normalized to unit length to achieve the output vectors in the range of [-1, 1]. Our hypervector has a dimensionality of 4096 on each CLIP's feature (CLIP's feature size is 512, so the total hypervector size is $512^{*}4096 = 2.1\mathrm{M}$ ). The [-1, 1] vector range and the high dimensionality of our hypervector allow us to use Vector Symbolic Architecture (VSA) to map a hypervector into another hypervector. VSAIT [51] proposed a hypervector mapping by assuming that each image is represented with VSA operations: binding/unbinding $(\otimes$ , element-wise multiplication) and bundling (element-wise addition): + +$$ +v ^ {s} = c \otimes c ^ {s} + d \otimes d ^ {s}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $v^{s}$ is a source domain hypervector, $c$ and $d$ are hypervectors representing contents of the image (e.g., a car and a dog, (we use 2 terms as an example)) bound with source-specific hypervectors: $c^{s}$ and $d^{s}$ . A hypervector mapping $(u^{s \leftrightarrow t}$ is achieved by unbinding source-specific hypervectors and binding target-specific hypervectors $(c^{t}$ and $d^{t}$ ). + +$$ +u ^ {s \leftrightarrow t g t} = c ^ {s} \otimes c ^ {t} + d ^ {s} \otimes d ^ {t} \tag {5} +$$ + +Since the binding/unbinding operation is invertible $(c \otimes c^s \otimes c^s = c)$ , and the binding of irrelevant attributes is almost orthogonal $(c^s \otimes d^s \approx 0$ , this is shown in the empirical study [38] that hypervector with dimension $>=700$ (we use 4,096) has this property, and we confirm in our ablation study section), the target domain hypervector $(v^t)$ is defined as: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} v ^ {s} \otimes u ^ {s \leftrightarrow t} = c \otimes c ^ {s} \otimes \left(c ^ {s} \otimes c ^ {t} + d ^ {s} \otimes d ^ {t}\right) \\ + d \otimes d ^ {s} \otimes \left(c ^ {s} \otimes c ^ {t} + d ^ {s} \otimes d ^ {t}\right) \tag {6} \\ \approx c \otimes c ^ {t} + d \otimes d ^ {t} \approx v ^ {t} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +# 3.3 Feature Augmentation + +We augment CLIP's features by converting them into hypervector space with RP $(\phi)$ , and use a generator $(G)$ to synthesize target feature $(\hat{v}_i^t = \phi (f(\hat{x}_i^t)))$ with the same label as the input source feature $(v_{i}^{s} = \phi (f(x_{i}^{s})))$ by learning a hypervector mapping $(u^{s\leftrightarrow t} = G(v_i^s))$ : + +$$ +\hat {v} _ {i} ^ {t} = v _ {i} ^ {s} \otimes G (v _ {i} ^ {s}) \tag {7} +$$ + +Our $G$ is a modified ResNet-18 that takes a reshaped hypervector from 4096x512 to 4096x32x16 (WxHxC) as input, and we remove all pooling layers, set the convolutional stride to 1, and add a convolutional layer with kernel size 1x1 at the end to map the output back to the input shape. We chose ResNet-18 for simplicity, and we also use our modified ResNet-18 as a discriminator $(D)$ by changing the last 1x1 convolutional layer to output 2 classes (Fake vs. Real). We train $G$ and $D$ in an adversarial training manner. During the discriminator training, we freeze CLIP and $G$ to train $D$ to classify the synthesized target feature $(\hat{v}_i^t)$ as 0 and classify the real target feature $(v_i^t)$ as 1: + +$$ +L _ {d} = \max \left[ \log \left(D \left(v _ {i} ^ {t}\right)\right) + \log \left(1 - D \left(\hat {v} _ {i} ^ {t}\right)\right) \right] \tag {8} +$$ + +During the generator training, we freeze CLIP and $D$ to train $G$ with a discriminative loss and a cycle loss (convert synthesized target features back to source features by $u^{s\leftrightarrow t}$ ). Since $u^{s\leftrightarrow t}$ can map source to target and target to source, we only need a single generator (unlike direct feature transformation that needs 2 generators to map target to source, and source to target): + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} L _ {g} = \min \left[ \log \left(D \left(v _ {i} ^ {t}\right)\right) + \log \left(1 - D \left(\hat {v} _ {i} ^ {t}\right)\right) \right] \tag {9} \\ + \min \left[ 1 - \cos \left(\hat {v} _ {i} ^ {t} \otimes u ^ {s \leftrightarrow t}, v _ {i} ^ {s}\right) \right] \\ \end{array} +$$ + +During CLIP training, we freeze $D$ and $G$ and use the synthesized feature to augment the sample in Eqn. 2: + +$$ +L _ {f} = \frac {1}{B} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \mathbf {H} \left(y _ {i} ^ {s} \mid p \left(\hat {v} _ {i} ^ {t}\right)\right) \tag {10} +$$ + +where $p(\hat{v}_i^t)$ is achieved by performing Eqn. 1 in the hypervector space (replace $g(\tau)$ with $\phi(g(\tau))$ and $f(x_i)$ with $\hat{v}_i^t$ ). + +Algorithm 1 HVCLIP for UDA +Input: Labeled source data $D_{s} = \{x_{i}^{s},y_{i}^{s}\}_{i = 1}^{N_{s}}$ and unlabeled target data $D_{t} = \{x_{i}^{t}\}_{i = 1}^{N_{t}}$ , number of iteration $T$ . +Output: A fine-tuned CLIP vision encoder ( $f$ ) +1: Cache original CLIP's feature $(v_{o}^{s},v_{o}^{t})$ for Eqn. 12; +2: Initialize $k = 0$ ; +3: while $k < T$ do +4: $k \gets k + 1$ ; +5: Select a subset of $D_{s}$ , $D_{t}$ sample for batch size $B$ ; +6: Extract and convert features to hypervector $(v_{i}^{s},v_{i}^{t})$ ; +7: Fine-tune generator ( $G$ ) with (Eqn. 9). +8: Fine-tune discriminator ( $D$ ) with (Eqn. 8). +9: Augment CLIP features (Eqn. 7); +10: Fine-tune CLIP with Eqn. 2-3, 10-12; +11: end while + +# 3.4 Discrepancy-based Method + +Discrepancy Reduction. We reduce the domain discrepancy between source and target domain features in the hypervector space by introducing a cosine similarity loss. As the binding of irrelevant attributes is almost orthogonal, the source-target features pair can be randomly sampled during the training (we do not need source-target pairs that have the same class, background, number of objects, etc.). + +$$ +L _ {r} = \frac {1}{B} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \left[ 1 - \cos \left(v _ {i} ^ {s}, v _ {i} ^ {t}\right) \right] \tag {11} +$$ + +Forgetting Reduction. We reduce the catastrophic forgetting issue by minimizing a cosine similarity loss between the original CLIP's features (before fine-tuning) and the features during the fine-tuning in the hypervector space. Since hypervector is robust, we do not augment images for the original CLIP's features in hypervector space $(v_{o}^{s}, v_{o}^{t})$ which allows us to cache the original features once to avoid training overhead: + +$$ +L _ {c} = \frac {1}{B} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \left[ 2 - \cos \left(v _ {o} ^ {s}, v _ {i} ^ {s}\right) - \cos \left(v _ {o} ^ {t}, v _ {i} ^ {t}\right) \right] \tag {12} +$$ + +Our final loss is the summation of Eqn. 2-3 (supervised learning and pseudolabel), Eqn. 8-10 (Feature Augmentation) and Eqn. 11-12 (Discrepancy-based Method). Pseudo-code can be found in Algorithm 1. Feature augmentation and discrepancy reduction are complementary because both bridge the domain gap. + +# 4 Experimental Setup + +Dataset. We strictly follow the protocol of previous works [2, 19, 20, 49, 50, 60] to evaluate our methods on four UDA datasets with a single model for each ex + +periment. VisDA-2017 [40] has 12 classes of 152k synthetic and 55k real images from COCO [28]. DomainNet [39] has 345 classes of 569k images from 6 domains: Clipart (clp), Infograph (inf), Painting (ppt), Quickdraw (qdr), Real-world (rel), and Sketch (skt). Office-Home [54] has 65 classes of 15.5k images from 4 domains: Art (Ar), Clipart (Cl), Product (Pr), and Real-world (Rw). Office-31 [44] has 31 classes of 4.6k images from 3 domains: Amazon (A), DSLR (D), and Webcam (W). Similar to past works, we use synthetic as the source and real object as the target domain for VisDA-2017, and for the other three datasets, we select one domain as the source and another domain as the target to have 30, 12, and 6 source-target domain combinations of DomainNet, Office-Home, and Office-31. + +Training Configuration. We experiment on ResNet-50/101 [12] and ViT-B/16 [8] with a patch size of $16 \times 16$ as the vision encoder in CLIP [41]. We freeze the text encoder and only train the vision encoder in CLIP because the training size of text is small (e.g., VisDA-2017 has 12 classes from 2 domains, so the text training size is only 24 samples). We use a learning rate of $1e^{-6}$ and batch size 32 to train all models for 30 epochs. We follow the training configuration in CLIP by using Adam optimizer with decoupled weight decay regularization [34] to decay weights, and cosine scheduler [32] to decay the learning rate. For image augmentation, we follow previous works [20, 50, 66] by using translation, flipping, CTAugment [1], and RandAugment [4]). For our Feature Augmentation, we iteratively train the generator, and discriminator for 100 iterations each, both with learning rate $1e^{-3}$ by cosine scheduler, and we use generated features to fine-tune CLIP on every iteration. + +# 5 Results + +# 5.1 Ablation studies + +We show the ablation studies by fine-tuning CLIP with the ResNet-101 backbone on ViSDA-2017. We use both supervised learning and pseudo-label. + +Importance of Forgetting/Discrepancy Reduction. Since CLIP suffers from catastrophic forgetting, we first study the importance of our Forgetting Reduction. Tab. 1 shows that CLIP without fine-tuning achieves $82.3\%$ and fine-tuning leads to $-25.2\%$ accuracy drops (row: 1,3). Our Forgetting Reduction mitigates the catastrophic forgetting to increase the accuracy by $+4.2\%$ and ours is more effective than PADCLIP's CFM (only increases accuracy by $+3.7\%$ , row: 1,8,13). We further use our Discrepancy Reduction to mitigate the feature discrepancy between the source and the target domain to improve accuracy by $+1.1\%$ (row: 8,9). + +Importance of Feature Augmentation. Our Feature Augmentation expands the labeled domain knowledge by synthesizing the labeled target domain features to further improve the accuracy by $+1.5\%$ (row: 9,12). We also show that our cycle loss (Eq.9) provides $+1\%$ improvement (row: 10, 12). We visualize the effect of our Discrepancy Reduction and our Feature Augmentation in Fig. 3) by + +Table 1: Ablation study. We fine-tune CLIP (ResNet-101) on VisDA-2017 source and target domain training set, and test on VisDA-2017 target domain validation set. Row 1,2 shows that hypervector does not degrade performance. Row 1,3 shows that finetuning leads to catastrophic forgetting. Row 5-8 shows that hypervector is effective at dimension 1024 onwards (similar observation with past work [38], and we use feature dimension $= 512^{*}$ hypervector dimension). Row 9,10,12 show the effectiveness of our methods. Row 11,12 show that removing hypervector breaks discrepancy-based method and feature augmentation. Row 8,13 shows that ours is more effective at mitigating catastrophic forgetting than PADCLIP. Row 13-15 shows that PADCLIP is not compatible with discrepancy-based method and feature augmentation. + +

Our source and target domain features of the same class but different domain images have a higher similarity than a traditional fine-tuning method. + +Importance of Hypervector. The robustness of the hypervector allows our Forgetting Reduction to constrain the augmented image (during fine-tuning) and the unaugmented original CLIP's prediction (so that the original CLIP's prediction can be cached to speed up the training), allows our Discrepancy Reduction to perform on an unpaired setting (source and target domain images are unaligned), and allows our Feature Augmentation to perform on an unpaired feature translation setting (source and target domain features are also unaligned). Tab. 1 (row: 11,12) shows that removing hypervector collapses our formulation (accuracy decreases by $-20.6\%$ ). Similarly for PADCLIP, CFM operates in the image space, but our Discrepancy Reduction and Feature Augmentation operates in the feature space, so PADCLIP is not compatible with them (accuracy decreases by $-13.9\%$ , row 13-15). We also studied the dimension of hypervector and observed the effective dimension to be 1024 onwards (row: 5-8). + +Table 2: Accuracies (%) on VisDA-2017. Full table in Appendix. + +

+ +# 5.2 External Comparison + +We achieved state-of-the-art results on four public datasets using the ViT-B/16 backbone, and we tested convolutional backbones (ResNet-50 and ResNet-101) for a fair comparison. + +VisDA-2017. We use ResNet-101 as CLIP's backbone to perform a fair comparison against past works. Tab. 2 shows that for ResNet-101, our method improves 8 out of 12 classes against the previous best method (VFR [19]), and our method with ResNet-101 backbone outperforms the recent works with ViT-B backbone (PMTrans [68], SSRT [49]). For the ViT-B/16 backbone, our method also outperforms VFR [19] for 8 out of 12 classes to achieve the new state-of-the-art. + +Office-Home/31. We tested ResNet-50 as CLIP's backbone for a fair comparison. On Office-Home, Tab. 3 shows that our method improves $+0.7\%$ accuracy over SKD [58] on the ResNet-50 backbone. On ViT-B/16 backbone, LLaVO [2] integrated an extra LLM model (FLAN-T5 [3]) to achieve the previous best result, but we outperform LLaVO without adding any LLM by $+0.4\%$ accuracy. For Office-31, the dataset size is small such that the average number of images per class on a single domain is only 49 images (shared by both training and testing), so the accuracy is close to saturation. We achieve $+0.7\%$ and $+0.5\%$ accuracy improvement over the previous best models (FixBi [37] and PMTrans [68]) on ResNet-50 and ViT-B/16 respectively. Note that the test set is saturated (e.g., SKD [58] uses 5x slower training to achieve $+0.3\%$ accuracy vs. PADCLIP [20]) + +Table 6: Classification accuracy for few-shot learning with ResNet-101 for ImageNet and ViT-B for DomainNet.

+ +DomainNet. We use the ViT-B/16 backbone to compare against previous works. Similar to LLaVO [2], VFR [19], SKD [58], PADCLIP [20], our method has a significant improvement over non-CLIP methods (e.g., accuracy $+21.7\%$ against SSRT [49]). Our method improves QuickDraw domain over LLaVO [2] (e.g., $+27\%$ on ClipArt $\rightarrow$ QuickDraw and $+52.6\%$ on QuickDraw $\rightarrow$ Painting) because QuickDraw rarely existed in CLIP's pre-training data and does not exist in LLM's training data (so LLaVO struggles with QuickDraw), but our model learned to reduce the discrepancy between source and target domain to achieve $+2.2\%$ accuracy over LLaVO (the previous best result). + +# 5.3 Applications + +Few-shot Learning. Our method preserves CLIP's few-shot learning ability because we did not modify CLIP's backbone (no extra layers on top of any features). Tab. 6 shows the few-shot learning results on ImageNet [5] and DomainNet [39]. For ImageNet, we use CLIP with ResNet-101 backbone on ImageNet 16-shot for a fair comparison with past works ( $+3.8\%$ vs. CLIP-Adapter, $+2.6\%$ [9] vs. CoOP [67], $+0.6\%$ vs. Tip-Adapter-F [64], and $+0.9\%$ vs. VFR [19]). For DomainNet, we outperform PADCLIP by $0.9\%$ and $0.6\%$ for 16-shot and 32-shot respectively. + +Continual Learning. We show the generalization of our Forgetting Reduction to the Continual Learning setting. We follow ZSCL [66] to evaluate the class-incremental setting, and we outperform ZSCL on 20 steps/last accuracy + +Table 8: Continual learning accuracy on class-incremental setting. + +

+ +by $+2.4\%$ and $+1.3\%$ on CIFAR-100 [18] and TinyImageNet [35] respectively. + +Model-Agnostic. We show the model-agnostic property of our method across different backbones. Tab. 7 shows that we outperform PADCLIP by $+0.8\%$ , $0.9\%$ , $+1.5\%$ for CLIP (ViT-B/16), BiT ([17]) and DeiT-B [52]. Our method supports both vision-language model (CLIP) and vision models (BiT and DeiT). + +# 5.4 Computational Complexity. + +On a single Nvidia Tesla V100 GPU, the baseline of fine-tuning CLIP on the labeled source domain from VisDA-2017 requires 16.5 hours, and adding pseudolabels increases the training time to 23 hours. We first cache the original CLIP prediction on the entire training set for Forgetting Reduction (only needs once). We then convert CLIP's features into hypervector space and perform Forgetting Reduction (+0.5 hour), Discrepancy Reduction (+0.5 hour), and Feature Augmentation (+6 hours), so the total training time is 30 hours. + +# 6 Conclusion + +We propose a High-dimensional Vector in CLIP (HVCLIP) by converting CLIP's features into hypervector space to utilize the robustness of the high-dimensional vector. Hypervector allows us to propose: Forgetting Reduction (to mitigate the catastrophic forgetting), Discrepancy Reduction (to mitigate domain shift between source and target domains), and Feature Augmentation (to synthesize labeled target domain). We achieved the best results on four public datasets and we show the generalization of our method to another application (few-shot learning, continual learning), and across vision-language (CLIP) and vision backbones (BiT, DeiT). + +# References + +1.

Recent advancement in the large-scale image-text pre-training model (such as CLIP) has significantly improved unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) by leveraging the pre-trained knowledge to bridge the source and target domain gap. However, Catastrophic forgetting still remains to be the main challenge, since traditional fine-tuning method to adjust CLIP model weights on a target domain can quickly override CLIP's pre-trained knowledge. To address the above issue, we propose to convert CLIP's features into high-dimensional vector (hypervector) space to utilize the robustness property of hypervector. We first study the feature dimension size in the hypervector space to empirically find the dimension threshold that allows enough feature patterns to be redundant to avoid excessive training (thus mitigating catastrophic forgetting). To further utilize the robustness of hypervector, we propose Discrepancy Reduction to reduce the domain shift between source and target domains, and Feature Augmentation to synthesize labeled target domain features from source domain features. We achieved the best results on four public UDA datasets, and showed the generalization of our method to other applications (few-shot learning, continual learning).

PADCLIP proposed catastrophic forgetting measurement (CFM) in the image space (by measuring the prediction difference between weak and strong image augmentations) to adjust the learning rate without decreasing the training speed.

Recent advances in visual reasoning (VR), particularly with the aid of Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs), show promise but require access to large-scale datasets and face challenges such as high computational costs and limited generalization capabilities. Compositional visual reasoning approaches have emerged as effective strategies; however, they heavily rely on the commonsense knowledge encoded in Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform planning, reasoning, or both, without considering the effect of their decisions on the visual reasoning process, which can lead to errors or failed procedures. To address these challenges, we introduce HYDRA, a multi-stage dynamic compositional visual reasoning framework designed for reliable and incrementally progressive general reasoning. HYDRA integrates three essential modules: a planner, a Reinforcement Learning (RL) agent serving as a cognitive controller, and a reasoner. The planner and reasoner modules utilize an LLM to generate instruction samples and executable code from the selected instruction, respectively, while the RL agent dynamically interacts with these modules, making high-level decisions on selection of the best instruction sample given information from the historical state stored through a feedback loop. This adaptable design enables HYDRA to adjust its actions based on previous feedback received during the reasoning process, leading to more reliable reasoning outputs and ultimately enhancing its overall effectiveness.

HYDRA is composed of three main modules: controller (Reinforcement Learning-based agent (RL)) and reasoner. Notably, in the planner, upon receiving textual queries, unlike prior compositional approaches, we employed LLM to generate some instruction samples with varying depths based on a distribution, instead of relying on a single instruction sample. Furthermore, we integrate a hyper RL agent to dynamically interact with some modules to make an high-level decision on the instruction samples generated by LLM in the planner to evaluate their validity. If the RL agent detects any invalid instruction samples, a request is sent back to the planner for alternative suggestions. Conversely, if the instruction samples are considered valid, the chosen instruction sample is forwarded to the reasoner. In the reasoner, the selected instruction sample undergoes analysis by LLM, and the resulting tailored code is sent to the code generator. The code generator employs Python API code to utilize VFMs for additional visual content processing. If the reasoner output is incomplete or fails, the output is converted to textual format in the textualizermodule and then stored in State Memory Bank. Afterwards, another request is then sent back to the planner to generate new instructions, which are again fed to the controller module to select an instruction sample. This iterative process continues incrementally until the final desired output is achieved. The design of HYDRA integrates not only the incremental storage of information from previous states (incremental reasoning), considered by the RL agent, but also the capability to utilize feedback from VFMs acquired from earlier perception processes. This enables dynamic adjustment of actions and responses based on feedback from visual perception modules. This innovative design facilitates hyper decision-making by the hyper RL agent, thereby refining reasoning capabilities and overall effectiveness.

These developments signal a significant shift towards AI systems proficient in reasoning across textual and visual domains. However, these single monolithic end-to-end models suffer from reduced interpretability, require significant computational power and extensive training data resources. Besides, these models exhibit limited generalization capabilities due to the vast scale of the trained neural networks [35]. Various vision challenges often necessitate distinct models, typically involving the manual selection and assembly of specific models tailored to each particular scenario. Given the exponentially large long tail of compositional tasks, the proposed data-intensive and compute-intensive single monolithic end-to-end models may fall short in solving these types of tasks [40, 45].

Recent advances in visual reasoning (VR), particularly with the aid of Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs), show promise but require access to large-scale datasets and face challenges such as high computational costs and limited generalization capabilities. Compositional visual reasoning approaches have emerged as effective strategies; however, they heavily rely on the commonsense knowledge encoded in Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform planning, reasoning, or both, without considering the effect of their decisions on the visual reasoning process, which can lead to errors or failed procedures. To address these challenges, we introduce HYDRA, a multi-stage dynamic compositional visual reasoning framework designed for reliable and incrementally progressive general reasoning. HYDRA integrates three essential modules: a planner, a Reinforcement Learning (RL) agent serving as a cognitive controller, and a reasoner. The planner and reasoner modules utilize an LLM to generate instruction samples and executable code from the selected instruction, respectively, while the RL agent dynamically interacts with these modules, making high-level decisions on selection of the best instruction sample given information from the historical state stored through a feedback loop. This adaptable design enables HYDRA to adjust its actions based on previous feedback received during the reasoning process, leading to more reliable reasoning outputs and ultimately enhancing its overall effectiveness.

HYDRA is composed of three main modules: controller (Reinforcement Learning-based agent (RL)) and reasoner. Notably, in the planner, upon receiving textual queries, unlike prior compositional approaches, we employed LLM to generate some instruction samples with varying depths based on a distribution, instead of relying on a single instruction sample. Furthermore, we integrate a hyper RL agent to dynamically interact with some modules to make an high-level decision on the instruction samples generated by LLM in the planner to evaluate their validity. If the RL agent detects any invalid instruction samples, a request is sent back to the planner for alternative suggestions. Conversely, if the instruction samples are considered valid, the chosen instruction sample is forwarded to the reasoner. In the reasoner, the selected instruction sample undergoes analysis by LLM, and the resulting tailored code is sent to the code generator. The code generator employs Python API code to utilize VFMs for additional visual content processing. If the reasoner output is incomplete or fails, the output is converted to textual format in the textualizermodule and then stored in State Memory Bank. Afterwards, another request is then sent back to the planner to generate new instructions, which are again fed to the controller module to select an instruction sample. This iterative process continues incrementally until the final desired output is achieved. The design of HYDRA integrates not only the incremental storage of information from previous states (incremental reasoning), considered by the RL agent, but also the capability to utilize feedback from VFMs acquired from earlier perception processes. This enables dynamic adjustment of actions and responses based on feedback from visual perception modules. This innovative design facilitates hyper decision-making by the hyper RL agent, thereby refining reasoning capabilities and overall effectiveness. The overall design of HYDRA compared with the previous compositional approach is shown in Figure 1.

Otter [18], Flamingo [1], and Visual ChatGPT [42] further enhance visual reasoning by integrating visual inputs into their language understanding processes, enabling contextually relevant responses. Initiatives like InstructBLIP [8], M3IT [20], and VisionLLM [41] emphasize instruction tuning, multilingual datasets, and vision-centric tasks, advancing language understanding and nuanced video comprehension through a blend of language and visual cues. These developments signal a significant shift towards AI systems proficient in reasoning across textual and visual domains. However, these single monolithic end-to-end models suffer from reduced interpretability, require significant computational power and extensive training data resources. Besides, these models exhibit limited generalization capabilities due to the vast scale of the trained neural networks [35]. Various vision challenges often necessitate distinct models, typically involving the manual selection and assembly of specific models tailored to each particular scenario. Given the exponentially large long tail of compositional tasks, the proposed data-intensive and compute-intensive single monolithic end-to-end models may fall short in solving these types of tasks [40, 45].

These strategies facilitate the assembly of VLMs into subroutines, thereby enabling the production of results. An alternative strategy, emblematic of the divide-and-conquer methodology, is exemplified by IdealGPT 46. This approach harnesses a captioning model for the acquisition of elementary visual data and engages a LLM to serve as a planner. The high-level inquiries are methodically deconstructed into three distinct sub-questions, which are processed concurrently. Following this, perception tools (VFMs) are employed to individually address each sub-question. The outcomes are then aggregated and analyzed by the reasoning mechanism to deduce the comprehensive final response.

Recent advances in visual reasoning (VR), particularly with the aid of Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs), show promise but require access to large-scale datasets and face challenges such as high computational costs and limited generalization capabilities. Compositional visual reasoning approaches have emerged as effective strategies; however, they heavily rely on the commonsense knowledge encoded in Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform planning, reasoning, or both, without considering the effect of their decisions on the visual reasoning process, which can lead to errors or failed procedures. To address these challenges, we introduce HYDRA, a multi-stage dynamic compositional visual reasoning framework designed for reliable and incrementally progressive general reasoning. HYDRA integrates three essential modules: a planner, a Reinforcement Learning (RL) agent serving as a cognitive controller, and a reasoner. The planner and reasoner modules utilize an LLM to generate instruction samples and executable code from the selected instruction, respectively, while the RL agent dynamically interacts with these modules, making high-level decisions on selection of the best instruction sample given information from the historical state stored through a feedback loop. This adaptable design enables HYDRA to adjust its actions based on previous feedback received during the reasoning process, leading to more reliable reasoning outputs and ultimately enhancing its overall effectiveness. Our framework demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in various VR tasks on four different widely-used datasets. + +Keywords: Visual reasoning $\cdot$ Large language Models (LLMs) $\cdot$ Reinforcement learning + +# 1 Introduction + +Visual reasoning (VR) involves constructing a detailed representation of a visual scene and reasoning through it in steps, similar to human cognition, often in response to textual queries or prompts 2.

In recent years, ad- + +![](images/9efa29856de26d22dd01776d2d6341b06246e05f9cf1577e3161e78d6dd06f27.jpg) +Fig. 1: Comparison of ViperGPT [38], IdealGPT [46], and HYDRA: ViperGPT employs a single feed-forward process approach, IdealGPT breaks down questions into sub-questions using a loop, while HYDRA utilizes diverse instructions and an RL agent in an incremental loop for feedback, showcasing its superior adaptability and efficiency in handling complex visual reasoning challenges. + +vancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) 3,6,28,31 and their derivatives, such as VLMs 18,35,43,53 have sparked hope for their effectiveness in solving visual reasoning tasks. While these models have shown promising results in certain tasks like VQA and VCR 52, their training as single monolithic end-to-end models necessitates large-scale datasets, imposing significant computational resource requirements. Additionally, while these models excel within their training domain, they may require further adaptation to achieve reliable performance when applied to diverse datasets or domains 35,38,46. + +In recent advancements, compositional approaches [9,24,38,42] have emerged as effective strategies for addressing VR challenges. These approaches break down complex tasks into simpler sub-components, employing a divide-and-conquer methodology. They employ LLMs alongside Visual Foundation Models (VFMs) without requiring extensive training. LLMs can function as planners, code generators, or reasoner, while VFMs act as visual perception components, facilitating structured analysis and task-specific plan generation to enhance adaptability and improve generalization across diverse scenarios. A recent SoTA compositional model is ViperGPT [38], which utilizes LLMs to generate code programs for visual queries and solve the task in a single feed forward process. Ideal-GPT [46] proposed an enhanced framework by utilising LLMs as both questioners and reasoners, with a pre-trained Vision-Language Model (VLM) serving as the answerer, Figure 1. In this model, LLM decomposes main questions into + +sub-questions, with the reasoner determining whether further sub-question generation is required through iterations or if the final output has been reached. + +However, these models come with certain limitations. Primarily, the outputs generated by LLMs may sometimes lack meaning, and when these outputs proceed to subsequent steps without verification, they can impact the outputs of other components, thus adversely affecting overall performance. Moreover, LLMs utilized in the planner or questioner during the initial step lack information from visual content (perception module) in later states to adjust their outputs [9,13]. Additionally, the process of generating subsequent questions often begins from scratch without storing information from previous steps, potentially leading to more iterations. Furthermore, these approach heavily rely on commonsense knowledge encoded in LLMs to do planning and reasoning for VR tasks. + +In this paper, we present HYDRA, a HYper agent for Dynamic compositional visual ReAsoning, an innovative framework designed to address the aforementioned challenges. HYDRA is composed of three main modules: controller (Reinforcement Learning-based agent (RL)) and reasoner. Notably, in the planner, upon receiving textual queries, unlike prior compositional approaches, we employed LLM to generate some instruction samples with varying depths based on a distribution, instead of relying on a single instruction sample. Furthermore, we integrate a hyper RL agent to dynamically interact with some modules to make an high-level decision on the instruction samples generated by LLM in the planner to evaluate their validity. If the RL agent detects any invalid instruction samples, a request is sent back to the planner for alternative suggestions. Conversely, if the instruction samples are considered valid, the chosen instruction sample is forwarded to the reasoner. In the reasoner, the selected instruction sample undergoes analysis by LLM, and the resulting tailored code is sent to the code generator. The code generator employs Python API code to utilize VFMs for additional visual content processing. If the reasoner output is incomplete or fails, the output is converted to textual format in the textualizermodule and then stored in State Memory Bank. Afterwards, another request is then sent back to the planner to generate new instructions, which are again fed to the controller module to select an instruction sample. This iterative process continues incrementally until the final desired output is achieved. The design of HYDRA integrates not only the incremental storage of information from previous states (incremental reasoning), considered by the RL agent, but also the capability to utilize feedback from VFMs acquired from earlier perception processes. This enables dynamic adjustment of actions and responses based on feedback from visual perception modules. This innovative design facilitates hyper decision-making by the hyper RL agent, thereby refining reasoning capabilities and overall effectiveness. The overall design of HYDRA compared with the previous compositional approach is shown in Figure 1. We evaluated our framework on several popular VR datasets and compared it with the advanced models, showing state-of-the-art performance. In sum, the key contributions of this work are as follows: + +1. Integrating a cognitive reinforcement learning-based agent as a controller into a framework to foster hyper decision-making and behavior across di + +verse environments, enhancing system cohesion, performance, and reasoning capabilities. + +2. Employing LLM as a natural language planner that enables the dynamic generation of valid instruction samples for iterative processing. The samples are vary in both the complexity and scope of perception tasks assigned with validity probabilities. +3. Applying incremental reasoning, storing information from previous states aids both the LLM and RL agent in acquiring fine-grained visual information through VFMs and the visual-perception-to-text module, thereby refining their reasoning processes. + +# 2 Related Work + +Single Monolithic End-to-End Methods. Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) [3,6,28,31] have notably improved their ability to understand and reason visual content. Their derivatives, VLMs, like Video-LLaMA [52] and NExT-GPT [43] excel in comprehending detailed videos and seamlessly integrating text, images, videos, and audio for cross-modal reasoning. Otter [18], Flamingo [1], and Visual ChatGPT [42] further enhance visual reasoning by integrating visual inputs into their language understanding processes, enabling contextually relevant responses. Initiatives like InstructBLIP [8], M3IT [20], and VisionLLM [41] emphasize instruction tuning, multilingual datasets, and vision-centric tasks, advancing language understanding and nuanced video comprehension through a blend of language and visual cues. These developments signal a significant shift towards AI systems proficient in reasoning across textual and visual domains. However, these single monolithic end-to-end models suffer from reduced interpretability, require significant computational power and extensive training data resources. Besides, these models exhibit limited generalization capabilities due to the vast scale of the trained neural networks [35]. Various vision challenges often necessitate distinct models, typically involving the manual selection and assembly of specific models tailored to each particular scenario. Given the exponentially large long tail of compositional tasks, the proposed data-intensive and compute-intensive single monolithic end-to-end models may fall short in solving these types of tasks [40, 45]. Consequently, compositional reasoning, generalization, fine-grained spatial reasoning abilities, and counting capabilities remain significant challenges for even the most advanced, large-scale single monolithic end-to-end models [5,12,38,49]. + +Compositional Visual Reasoning Methods. The compositional approach introduces a strategy aimed at addressing the challenges faced by end-to-end VLMs [9,24,35,38,46]. These models tackle complex tasks by breaking them down into multiple subtasks, solving each one individually, and then utilizing the intermediate outcomes to address the overarching task. These models utilize the potent chain-of-thought (CoT) functionality of LLMs acting as planners, reasoner, etc. This capability facilitates the breakdown of intricate problems into manageable and individually solvable intermediate steps through the provision + +of instructions 4,7,14,17. The instructions may take the form of Python execution code that embodies logical operations 9,38. For example, Visprog 9 and ViperGPT 38 seek to eliminate the requirement for task-specific training in both programming logic and perception modules by employing code generation models. These strategies facilitate the assembly of VLMs into subroutines, thereby enabling the production of results. An alternative strategy, emblematic of the divide-and-conquer methodology, is exemplified by IdealGPT 46. This approach harnesses a captioning model for the acquisition of elementary visual data and engages a LLM to serve as a planner. The high-level inquiries are methodically deconstructed into three distinct sub-questions, which are processed concurrently. Following this, perception tools (VFMs) are employed to individually address each sub-question. The outcomes are then aggregated and analyzed by the reasoning mechanism to deduce the comprehensive final response. Moreover, the activation status and the sequential order of VFMs, as utilized by visual perception tools, constitute a form of instruction 24. The system implements predefined functionalities based on these instructions to systematically activate perception tools in a specified sequence. This process culminates in the aggregation of data, which is subsequently analyzed by the reasoning mechanism to formulate the ultimate conclusion. + +All these compositional processing heavily depends on the capability of LLMs to perform commonsense reasoning and make decisions. However, despite their capabilities, LLMs have certain limitations. Primarily, the outputs they generate may lack meaningfulness, and if these outputs proceed to subsequent steps without verification, they can adversely affect the performance of other components. Additionally, LLMs used in planning or questioning lack access to visual content information in later stages, which hinders their ability to adjust outputs accordingly. Moreover, the process of generating subsequent questions often starts anew without retaining information from previous steps, potentially leading to more iterations. Furthermore, these methodologies heavily rely on the common-sense knowledge encoded in LLMs for planning and reasoning within virtual reality tasks. In this paper, we introduce a new framework that utilizes a cognitive reinforcement learning-based agent to address these challenges. This framework enhances decision-making, system performance, and reasoning across different + +Table 1: Summary of compositional models, including HYDRA. IR: Incremental Reasoning.

Input Q is given to the planner to generate instructions $D^t$ using $s^{t-1}$ and $\eta$ . The controller receives $D^t$ , and if invalid, requests alternative samples from the planner. Otherwise, it sends chosen instruction $d_*^t$ to the reasoner, which generates perceptual output using Python APIs and VFMs. Incomplete output is converted to textual format, $f^t$ , by the textualizer and stored in State Memory Bank.

The framework's input comprises query-image pairs, denoted as $X = \{Q, I\}$ , and the final output, $\hat{Y}$ , can be textual answers or bounding boxes for the visual grounding task. The planner $\mathcal{F}_P$ , utilizing LLM, generates some instruction samples based on the input query $Q$ using some information from meta information and State Memory Bank. Then, the generated instruction samples are fed to controller $\mathcal{F}_C$ which is composed of GPT embedding and RL agent that evaluate the validity of instruction samples. If the RL agent detects invalid instruction samples, it forwards a request to the planner for alternative instruction samples; conversely, an instruction sample is picked as the chosen sample, $d_*$ , and sent to the reasoner.

Subsequently, this Python code is executed in the executing code submodule utilizing Python APIs and VFMs. If the output is incomplete or unsuccessful, it is converted to textual format through the textualizer module and stored in the State Memory Bank. Thereafter, another request is sent to the planner to generate new instruction samples, which are then provided to the controller module to select a valid instruction sample. This iterative process continues incrementally until the desired final output is obtained. + +As HYDRA is a framework that operates through several iterations to simplify the process, we use $s^{0:t}$ to depict the progression from the initial state to the current state $0:t$ . Additionally, in the first iteration, there is no information from the previous iteration, denoted as $s^0 = \{\}$ . Note that all LLMs in the planner, reasoner, and textualizer are the same, with only their prompts being changed in different modules, and for enhanced clarity, we present them separately in the figure. The algorithm of the whole inference process is provided in Algorithm 1. The technical details for each module, along with further elaboration, are provided in the following. + +State Memory Bank & Meta Information. As HYDRA progresses through multiple iterations and considers information from previous ones, all data, including code, instruction, and the output of the reasoner from former iteration, are stored in State Memory Bank, represented by a grey cylinder in Figure 2. Furthermore, meta information encompasses crucial data such as a subset of + +skills $\pi \in \Pi$ and various task descriptions $\gamma \in \Gamma$ tailored for different tasks that the LLM needs as a prompt. For simplicity, these are denoted as $\eta = \gamma, \pi$ in the subsequent equations. + +Planner Module. Highlighted in orange in Figure 2, this module receives $Q$ and other data from the State Memory Bank. It generates $N$ instruction samples (e.g., "find girls", "verify if the girl is on the right side"), $d_{i}^{t}$ of varying depth, where each instruction sample can have different actions or levels of complexity. For instance, some instructions may involve simple tasks, while others may entail more intricate actions or multi-step processes. Along with these instruction samples, corresponding confidence probabilities $P_{p}(d_{i}^{t})$ are provided, indicating the likelihood of each instruction being accurately executed. These outputs are generated by the LLM ChatGPT* and are represented by $D^{t} = \{(d_{i}^{t},P_{P}(d_{i}^{t}))\}_{i = 1}^{N}$ in the yellow box. This process is described by the equation: + +$$ +D ^ {t} = \mathcal {F} _ {P} (Q, s ^ {0: t - 1}, \eta) \tag {1} +$$ + +Controller Module. This module serves as the central component of HYDRA, dynamically interacting with other modules to facilitate hyper decision-making and functioning as a cognitive controller. This module integrates embedding, leveraging GPT-3 [4], to extract the features highlighted in a cyan circle in the Figure [2]. It takes $D^{t}$ , $\eta$ and $s^{0:t - 1}$ and embeds them into a vector, $V$ . Subsequently, it passes through an RL agent, which consists of a trainable MLP layer followed by a softmax function with an output size of $N + 1$ . Through this module, the instruction samples undergo evaluation and if the RL agent considers them invalid, a request is sent to the planner to regenerate new instruction samples, as indicated by the red arrow in Figure [2]. Otherwise, the chosen instruction sample, $d_{*}^{t}$ , is selected and proceeds to the reasoner, depicted by the green arrow. + +$$ +d _ {*} ^ {t} = \underset {d _ {i} ^ {t} \in D ^ {t}} {\operatorname {a r g m a x}} \mathcal {F} _ {C} ^ {\theta} (D ^ {t}, s ^ {0: t - 1}, \eta) * P _ {P} (d _ {i} ^ {t}) \qquad \qquad (2) +$$ + +Training phase. As mentioned earlier, the RL agent is a trainable MLP layer based on Reinforcement Learning, employing the DQN algorithm [27]. During the training phase, the objective of the RL agent is to maximize the expected cumulative reward. The reward function is designed to favour fewer iterations and correct output while penalizing more iterations and incorrect output. We iteratively accumulate the reward function as shown below. + +$$ +R ^ {t} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} R ^ {t - 1} - t & \text {i f n o t f i n a l s t e p ,} \\ R ^ {t - 1} + \alpha m & \text {i f a n s w e r i s r e l a t e} \\ R ^ {t - 1} - \alpha & \text {i f a n s w e r i s u n r e l a t e d} \\ R ^ {1} & \text {i f} t = 1 \end{array} \right. \tag {3} +$$ + +where $m$ is the performance metrics (e.g. accuracy, intersection over union), + +$\alpha$ and $R^1$ are the hyperparameter constants. Additional details regarding this phase are provided in the supplementary material. + +Reasoner Module. Illustrated in light pink in the Figure 2 this module consists of an LLM as code generator and a code executor sub-module. In this setup, ChatGPT* receives the selected instruction sample $d_{*}^{t}$ from the controller module, along with necessary information from the previous iteration, $s^{0:t-1}$ , and $\eta$ , to generate Python code. This Python code is then transferred to the execution sub-module within perception tools, such as VFMs including GLIP [21], BLIP2 [19], LLaVA-1.5 [22], MiDaS [32], and XVLM [51]. Python interpreter to execute the code in the Python context loaded with the predefined Python APIs. In the execution, all the variable values (perceptual output) are collected and logged and will be sent to the next module via the feedback. + +$$ +\mathrm {p e r c e p t u a l o u t p u t} = \mathcal {F} _ {R} (Q, d _ {*} ^ {t}, s ^ {0: t - 1}, \eta) \qquad (4) +$$ + +Textualizer Module. If the perceptual output from the reasoner module is incomplete or unsuccessful, it undergoes conversion to textual format within this module, as depicted by the green in Figure 2. The perceptual output from the reasoner, which may consist of bounding boxes, verifications, or captions, is transformed into a textual format using a template. This conversion ensures that the input is understandable for the LLM and ensures that all information stored in the State Memory Bank has the same format that can be used in the next iterations. Subsequently, the LLM summarizes the current state information, $f^t$ , and stores it in State Memory Bank. Further details about these templates are available in the supplementary material. + +Technical Details: The iterative process continues incrementally until the desired final output is achieved, which we refer to as the incremental reasoning mechanism. It's worth noting that the HYDRA does not always require iterations; by efficiently integrating the RL agent, the final output of the task can be generated in just a single iteration. That could be due to the simplicity of the task, or the RL agent may choose to select an instruction that includes all the necessary steps for generating the final output in a single iteration. + +# 4 Experiments and Results + +Implementation Details: To train our framework, we utilized PyTorch [29] with NVIDIA RTX 4090 GPUs, employing a learning rate of $1 \times 10^{-4}$ and a batch size of 128. The Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) used for the RL agent, consists of three layers with dimensions 1536, 512, and 6. The hyper-parameters for reinforcement learning are set as $R^1 = 100$ and $\alpha = 100$ . During the training process, early stopping is applied once the reward converges. For a fair comparison, we evaluated the state-of-the-art (SoTA) baselines using configurations from their official code repositories and papers [35]. We utilized the largest available backbone for the end-to-end VLMs. We also replaced ChatGPT as the code generator in ViperGPT [38], given the discontinuation of GPT3 Codex by OpenAI [38].

Among the end-to-end methods, grounding-specialized approaches like GLIP 21 and ReCLIP 37 achieve superior performance compared to the VLM KOSMOS-2 30. Considering that KOSMOS-2 can also handle other text-based tasks. When comparing methods between end-to-end and compositional approaches, we observe that both compositional visual reasoning approaches (ViperGPT 38 and HYDRA) achieve better performance than end-to-end baselines. This indicates that the compositional approach design is more adept at solving the VG task. + +Compositional Image Question Answering contains complex questions. These questions require the decomposition into simpler steps for answering. Similar to previous works [38], we utilize the BLIP2 [19] API simple-query to enhance our understanding of image content. As demonstrated in Table 3 with implementation on the GQA dataset, among the end-to-end models, the $30.8\%$ performance of MiniGPT underscores the importance of instruct tuning.

Notably, the performance of our model, HYDRA, in the cross-dataset experiments (i.e., training on GQA and testing on OK-VQA, and training on OK-VQA and testing on A-OK-VQA) closely matches intra-dataset performance as shown in Table 4. Furthermore, this cross-dataset performance surpasses that of the baseline ViLT [16], which achieved an accuracy of $32.13\%$ . Additionally, ViperGPT [38] exhibits superior performance compared to ViLT, showcasing the superiority of compositional over end-to-end methods in generalizability. Comparison with ViperGPT also reveals superior performance, as HYDRA trained on alternative datasets achieved accuracies of $48.17\%$ . These findings underscore the generalizability of the RL agent controller within HYDRA. + +Qualitative Analysis: Figure 3 demonstrates intermediate processes of HYDRA for two examples, one for visual question-answering and one for visual grounding tasks.

As previously mentioned, there are three main contributions in HYDRA: the RL agent, Sampling (involving instruction sampling numbers), and Incremental Reasoning (IR). Through this experiment, the efficacy of each component is evaluated and presented in Table 5. As depicted in Table 5, the first column displays the models and their variants, while the following three columns represent each key component: RL agent, Incremental Reasoning (IR), and Sampling respectively.

HYDRA combines three key parts: a planner, a RL agent acting as a cognitive controller, and a reasoner. The planner and reasoner modules use an LLM to create instruction samples and executable code from chosen instructions, while the RL agent interacts with these modules to make decisions based on past feedback, adjusting its actions as needed. This flexible setup allows HYDRA to learn from previous experiences during the reasoning process, resulting in more dependable outcomes and overall better performance. In future, our goal is to enhance our framework by fostering greater interaction between the LLM in the reasoner and the texturizer module to mitigate potential errors. + +# Acknowledgements + +This research is partially supported by Building 4.0 CRC.

Recent advances in visual reasoning (VR), particularly with the aid of Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs), show promise but require access to large-scale datasets and face challenges such as high computational costs and limited generalization capabilities. Compositional visual reasoning approaches have emerged as effective strategies; however, they heavily rely on the commonsense knowledge encoded in Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform planning, reasoning, or both, without considering the effect of their decisions on the visual reasoning process, which can lead to errors or failed procedures. To address these challenges, we introduce HYDRA, a multi-stage dynamic compositional visual reasoning framework designed for reliable and incrementally progressive general reasoning. HYDRA integrates three essential modules: a planner, a Reinforcement Learning (RL) agent serving as a cognitive controller, and a reasoner. The planner and reasoner modules utilize an LLM to generate instruction samples and executable code from the selected instruction, respectively, while the RL agent dynamically interacts with these modules, making high-level decisions on selection of the best instruction sample given information from the historical state stored through a feedback loop. This adaptable design enables HYDRA to adjust its actions based on previous feedback received during the reasoning process, leading to more reliable reasoning outputs and ultimately enhancing its overall effectiveness.

HYDRA is composed of three main modules: controller (Reinforcement Learning-based agent (RL)) and reasoner. Notably, in the planner, upon receiving textual queries, unlike prior compositional approaches, we employed LLM to generate some instruction samples with varying depths based on a distribution, instead of relying on a single instruction sample. Furthermore, we integrate a hyper RL agent to dynamically interact with some modules to make an high-level decision on the instruction samples generated by LLM in the planner to evaluate their validity. If the RL agent detects any invalid instruction samples, a request is sent back to the planner for alternative suggestions. Conversely, if the instruction samples are considered valid, the chosen instruction sample is forwarded to the reasoner. In the reasoner, the selected instruction sample undergoes analysis by LLM, and the resulting tailored code is sent to the code generator. The code generator employs Python API code to utilize VFMs for additional visual content processing. If the reasoner output is incomplete or fails, the output is converted to textual format in the textualizermodule and then stored in State Memory Bank. Afterwards, another request is then sent back to the planner to generate new instructions, which are again fed to the controller module to select an instruction sample. This iterative process continues incrementally until the final desired output is achieved. The design of HYDRA integrates not only the incremental storage of information from previous states (incremental reasoning), considered by the RL agent, but also the capability to utilize feedback from VFMs acquired from earlier perception processes. This enables dynamic adjustment of actions and responses based on feedback from visual perception modules. This innovative design facilitates hyper decision-making by the hyper RL agent, thereby refining reasoning capabilities and overall effectiveness. The overall design of HYDRA compared with the previous compositional approach is shown in Figure 1.

Otter [18], Flamingo [1], and Visual ChatGPT [42] further enhance visual reasoning by integrating visual inputs into their language understanding processes, enabling contextually relevant responses. Initiatives like InstructBLIP [8], M3IT [20], and VisionLLM [41] emphasize instruction tuning, multilingual datasets, and vision-centric tasks, advancing language understanding and nuanced video comprehension through a blend of language and visual cues. These developments signal a significant shift towards AI systems proficient in reasoning across textual and visual domains. However, these single monolithic end-to-end models suffer from reduced interpretability, require significant computational power and extensive training data resources. Besides, these models exhibit limited generalization capabilities due to the vast scale of the trained neural networks [35]. Various vision challenges often necessitate distinct models, typically involving the manual selection and assembly of specific models tailored to each particular scenario. Given the exponentially large long tail of compositional tasks, the proposed data-intensive and compute-intensive single monolithic end-to-end models may fall short in solving these types of tasks [40, 45]. Consequently, compositional reasoning, generalization, fine-grained spatial reasoning abilities, and counting capabilities remain significant challenges for even the most advanced, large-scale single monolithic end-to-end models [5,12,38,49]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 660, + 528, + 787 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 660, + 528, + 787 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 65, + 660, + 528, + 787 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Compositional Visual Reasoning Methods.

For example, Visprog 9 and ViperGPT 38 seek to eliminate the requirement for task-specific training in both programming logic and perception modules by employing code generation models. These strategies facilitate the assembly of VLMs into subroutines, thereby enabling the production of results. An alternative strategy, emblematic of the divide-and-conquer methodology, is exemplified by IdealGPT 46. This approach harnesses a captioning model for the acquisition of elementary visual data and engages a LLM to serve as a planner. The high-level inquiries are methodically deconstructed into three distinct sub-questions, which are processed concurrently. Following this, perception tools (VFMs) are employed to individually address each sub-question. The outcomes are then aggregated and analyzed by the reasoning mechanism to deduce the comprehensive final response. Moreover, the activation status and the sequential order of VFMs, as utilized by visual perception tools, constitute a form of instruction 24. The system implements predefined functionalities based on these instructions to systematically activate perception tools in a specified sequence. This process culminates in the aggregation of data, which is subsequently analyzed by the reasoning mechanism to formulate the ultimate conclusion." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 67, + 361, + 527, + 581 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 67, + 361, + 527, + 581 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 67, + 361, + 527, + 581 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "All these compositional processing heavily depends on the capability of LLMs to perform commonsense reasoning and make decisions. However, despite their capabilities, LLMs have certain limitations. Primarily, the outputs they generate may lack meaningfulness, and if these outputs proceed to subsequent steps without verification, they can adversely affect the performance of other components. Additionally, LLMs used in planning or questioning lack access to visual content information in later stages, which hinders their ability to adjust outputs accordingly. Moreover, the process of generating subsequent questions often starts anew without retaining information from previous steps, potentially leading to more iterations. Furthermore, these methodologies heavily rely on the common-sense knowledge encoded in LLMs for planning and reasoning within virtual reality tasks.

The planner and reasoner modules use an LLM to create instruction samples and executable code from chosen instructions, while the RL agent interacts with these modules to make decisions based on past feedback, adjusting its actions as needed. This flexible setup allows HYDRA to learn from previous experiences during the reasoning process, resulting in more dependable outcomes and overall better performance.

In an era where the volume of data drives the effectiveness of self-supervised learning, the specificity and clarity of data semantics play a crucial role in model training. Addressing this, we introduce HYPerbolic Entailment filtering (HYPE), a novel methodology designed to meticulously extract modality-wise meaningful and well-aligned data from extensive, noisy image-text pair datasets. Our approach leverages hyperbolic embeddings and the concept of entailment cones to evaluate and filter out samples with meaningless or underspecified semantics, focusing on enhancing the specificity of each data sample. HYPE not only demonstrates a significant improvement in filtering efficiency but also sets a new state-of-the-art in the DataComp benchmark when combined with existing filtering techniques. This breakthrough showcases the potential of HYPE to refine the data selection process, thereby contributing to the development of more accurate and efficient self-supervised learning models.

As an alternative, there have been attempts to scale up noisy data points until reaching the performance garnered from carefully collected high-quality training datasets [11, 33, 51].

In this paper, we employ hyperbolic embeddings to capture additional information for data filtering. A hyperbolic space maps data that needs to be close to many positives at the same time (i.e., more generic data) into closer to the origin, while maps data with fewer positive pairs (i.e., more specific data) into farther away from the origin [40, 49]. Conceptually, the distance from the origin corresponds to the uncertainty represented by Euclidean Gaussian embeddings [63]. Thus, hyperbolic embeddings can naturally capture how the uncertainty of inputs caused by inherent noisy image-text pairs [12]. Practical implementations of $\\mathbb{R}^n$ hyperbolic spaces include the Poincaré ball model [1, 2, 17, 18, 21, 22, 35, 49], which distorts the distances in $\\mathbb{R}^n$ , and the hyperboloid model (Lorentz model), which is defined as a submanifold of $\\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ [16, 38]. A recent study, MERU [16], has successfully extended this concept to image-text contrastive models, showing better performance than CLIP in cross-modal retrieval and illustrating interesting applications of image traversal. In this paper, we focus on noisy pair filtering leveraging the specificity we can gather from the hyperbolic model, which was not addressed in MERU, and show the advantages of using hyperbolic CLIP as a filtering network.

These model-driven benchmarks include evaluation datasets and tasks, but they do not limit models and training datasets. Namely, the three factors of the scaling law [28, 29, 30, 61] –the size of the model, the amount of data, and the number of training steps– cannot be controlled through the benchmarks. It makes fair quantitative comparisons between different algorithms or methods difficult beyond the effect of scale. To address this, DataComp [20] has been proposed as a data-driven, rather than model-driven, benchmark where the size of the model and the number of training steps (the number of samples seen) are controlled and fixed. The Datacomp evaluation consists of 38 tasks, mainly grouped into four task groups: ImageNet, 6 ImageNet distribution shifts [4, 26, 27, 55], 13 VTAB [78], and 3 retrievals [6, 43, 75]. The main evaluation metric of DataComp is computed by the average score of these tasks, and additional benchmarks from CLIP [53] and WILDS [36]. In this paper, we consider the DataComp filtering track, a benchmark for evaluating the effectiveness of filtering methods. There are four different scales of datasets in terms of fixed model size, training budget, and the number of seen samples (small, medium, large, and xlarge). For example, the number of seen samples of small is $12.8\\mathrm{M}$ , growing 10 times for each scale (e.g., large has $1.28\\mathrm{B}$ seen samples). Therefore, for each filtering track, the training method, budget, and the number of seen samples are fixed, but only the seen samples are changed. We note that the training method is fixed as CLIP training and the evaluation protocol is fixed as the average zero-shot score on the 38 tasks of Datacomp evaluation suite.

In an era where the volume of data drives the effectiveness of self-supervised learning, the specificity and clarity of data semantics play a crucial role in model training. Addressing this, we introduce HYPerbolic Entailment filtering (HYPE), a novel methodology designed to meticulously extract modality-wise meaningful and well-aligned data from extensive, noisy image-text pair datasets. Our approach leverages hyperbolic embeddings and the concept of entailment cones to evaluate and filter out samples with meaningless or underspecified semantics, focusing on enhancing the specificity of each data sample. HYPE not only demonstrates a significant improvement in filtering efficiency but also sets a new state-of-the-art in the DataComp benchmark when combined with existing filtering techniques. This breakthrough showcases the potential of HYPE to refine the data selection process, thereby contributing to the development of more accurate and efficient self-supervised learning models.

As an alternative, there have been attempts to scale up noisy data points until reaching the performance garnered from carefully collected high-quality training datasets [11, 33, 51].

In this paper, we employ hyperbolic embeddings to capture additional information for data filtering. A hyperbolic space maps data that needs to be close to many positives at the same time (i.e., more generic data) into closer to the origin, while maps data with fewer positive pairs (i.e., more specific data) into farther away from the origin [40, 49]. Conceptually, the distance from the origin corresponds to the uncertainty represented by Euclidean Gaussian embeddings [63]. Thus, hyperbolic embeddings can naturally capture how the uncertainty of inputs caused by inherent noisy image-text pairs [12]. Practical implementations of \\(\\mathbb{R}^n\\) hyperbolic spaces include the Poincaré ball model [1, 2, 17, 18, 21, 22, 35, 49], which distorts the distances in \\(\\mathbb{R}^n\\), and the hyperboloid model (Lorentz model), which is defined as a submanifold of \\(\\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\\) [16, 38]. A recent study, MERU [16], has successfully extended this concept to image-text contrastive models, showing better performance than CLIP in cross-modal retrieval and illustrating interesting applications of image traversal. In this paper, we focus on noisy pair filtering leveraging the specificity we can gather from the hyperbolic model, which was not addressed in MERU, and show the advantages of using hyperbolic CLIP as a filtering network.

These model-driven benchmarks include evaluation datasets and tasks, but they do not limit models and training datasets. Namely, the three factors of the scaling law [28, 29, 30, 61] –the size of the model, the amount of data, and the number of training steps– cannot be controlled through the benchmarks. It makes fair quantitative comparisons between different algorithms or methods difficult beyond the effect of scale. To address this, DataComp [20] has been proposed as a data-driven, rather than model-driven, benchmark where the size of the model and the number of training steps (the number of samples seen) are controlled and fixed. The Datacomp evaluation consists of 38 tasks, mainly grouped into four task groups: ImageNet, 6 ImageNet distribution shifts [4, 26, 27, 55], 13 VTAB [78], and 3 retrievals [6, 43, 75]. The main evaluation metric of DataComp is computed by the average score of these tasks, and additional benchmarks from CLIP [53] and WILDS [36]. In this paper, we consider the DataComp filtering track, a benchmark for evaluating the effectiveness of filtering methods. There are four different scales of datasets in terms of fixed model size, training budget, and the number of seen samples (small, medium, large, and xlarge). For example, the number of seen samples of small is \\(12.8\\mathrm{M}\\), growing 10 times for each scale (e.g., large has \\(1.28\\mathrm{B}\\) seen samples). Therefore, for each filtering track, the training method, budget, and the number of seen samples are fixed, but only the seen samples are changed. We note that the training method is fixed as CLIP training and the evaluation protocol is fixed as the average zero-shot score on the 38 tasks of Datacomp evaluation suite.

In an era where the volume of data drives the effectiveness of self-supervised learning, the specificity and clarity of data semantics play a crucial role in model training. Addressing this, we introduce HYPerbolic Entailment filtering (HYPE), a novel methodology designed to meticulously extract modality-wise meaningful and well-aligned data from extensive, noisy image-text pair datasets. Our approach leverages hyperbolic embeddings and the concept of entailment cones to evaluate and filter out samples with meaningless or underspecified semantics, focusing on enhancing the specificity of each data sample. HYPE not only demonstrates a significant improvement in filtering efficiency but also sets a new state-of-the-art in the DataComp benchmark when combined with existing filtering techniques. This breakthrough showcases the potential of HYPE to refine the data selection process, thereby contributing to the development of more accurate and efficient self-supervised learning models. Additionally, the image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ can be independently applied to induce an image-only dataset from an image-text or image-only data pool for training image-only self-supervised models and showed superior performance when compared to the dataset induced by CLIP score. + +# 1 Introduction + +Recent studies have shown that a machine learning model performance is highly correlated to the training dataset scale and the dataset quality; carefully human-validated high-quality training data leads to a better model performance than the same size of noisy data [30, 37]. However, human-validated dataset construction is labor-intensive, making its scale-up expensive and impractical. As an alternative, there have been attempts to scale up noisy data points until reaching the performance garnered from carefully collected high-quality training datasets [11, 33, 51]. However, this approach requires more than billion-scale data points that introduces another challenges in computational costs and storage size. To mitigate the problem, researchers have begun to study inexpensive automatic data filtering approaches to the noisy billion-scale data points. + +The large datasets being created today, except private in-house datasets [54, 62, 74, 79], rely heavily on web-crawled documents by CommonCrawl. As the scale of images and texts obtained from the web is tremendously large, each dataset employs different heuristics for reducing the size of the dataset. These heuristics include, for example, whether the text is a title from Wikipedia, + +![](images/05af3fa418535cb25f258fef41e6917253fa745b00cd6fc8bf028f843e73c935.jpg) +Fig. 1: Example of HYPE filtering on the Datacomp small pool [20]. HYPE leverages both uni-modal specificity (text specificity $\epsilon_{t}$ and image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ ) and cross-modal similarity (CLIP similarity $cos(\theta)$ as in this figure or negative Lorentzian distance $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ can be used instead) to effectively identify and eliminate misalignment and underspecification issues on noisy image-text pairs. Figures (a-c) show instances where image-text pairs exhibit high alignment yet are flagged for exclusion due to insufficient specificity: (b) demonstrates low image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ , (c) illustrates low text specificity $\epsilon_{t}$ , and (a) indicates low specificity in both aspects. Conversely, Figure (d) presents a scenario with high $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ but low $cos(\theta)$ , highlighting a misalignment between the image and text, evidenced by the absence of an "elephant print". + +![](images/4967b1de75fbbdfaf63ac2f8c837bb564f7ea31ef672cecb60c5f416a700e4f9.jpg) + +![](images/6824923eff50d0d525ffa0dbbfc8fe91e3f591e62e9fad091c2a5d69fe747e01.jpg) + +![](images/4abb8a44a8ae76661d162b43c9999b01461e8123a953def6f18a61eaa6c22b16.jpg) + +whether it is written in English, and whether the image resolution is large enough [20, 53, 57, 58, 73]. Another rule-of-thumb is model-based filtering, usually based on the pre-trained CLIP [53] model, which determines if the given image and text are semantically aligned [20, 57, 58], or if the given image is similar to high-quality images from human-validated datasets, such as ImageNet [20]. + +Although CLIP-based filtering helps verify the semantic alignment between images and texts, we argue that alignment alone is insufficient for high-quality data filtering. More specifically, we should consider specificity of each data point. Here, we (informally) define alignment as whether a given image-text pair is sufficiently similar and specificity as whether a given unimodal data point contains sufficient information to be uniquely defined (i.e., specificity measures how each data point has semantically overlapping with other data points). A more formal definition will be described in Sec. 3.3. Figure 1 illustrates the concept of alignment and specificity. In the figure, the website screenshot and the URI are well-aligned, but the information of the screenshot and the URI are not sufficiently enough to be uniquely defined. Unfortunately, as CLIP-based filtering only considers alignment, it cannot filter out underspecified images and texts. + +To consider both alignment and specificity, we employ the pre-trained CLIP [53] and its hyperbolic embedding version, MERU [16]. By employing both alignment and specificity metrics, our data filtering, named HYPerbolic Entailment filtering (HYPE), can successfully handle underspecified samples and misaligned pairs at the same time. More specifically, we propose a novel specificity measurement based on the property of hyperbolic embeddings, the image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ + +and the text specificity $\epsilon_{t}$ . We employ four metrics for HYPE: the cosine similarity $(\cos(\theta))$ between the two CLIP embeddings, the negative Lorentzian distance $(-d_{\mathcal{L}})$ [40] between the two MERU embeddings, and the specificity measure of each modality using the entailment cone defined by MERU: $\epsilon_{i}$ (how specific the image is) and $\epsilon_{t}$ (how specific the text is). HYPE utilize all four metrics: $\epsilon_{i}$ , $\epsilon_{t}$ , $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ , and $\cos(\theta)$ for filtering, making sure that the samples like shown in Figure 1 are eliminated, which is not possible by alignment-only filtering. By considering various aspects of data points rather than only alignment, HYPE is ranked in the first place on the Datacomp filtering track [20] for small and medium scales by combining with DFN [19]. Our contribution can be summarized as follows. + +1. We propose HYPE, a novel method that enhances the training of CLIP models beyond what is possible with traditional CLIP-based filtering techniques by leveraging uni-modal specificity along with cross-modal alignment. +2. HYPE can be effectively used independently or in conjunction with other filtering methods. When combined, it achieves a new state-of-the-art in the DataComp benchmark, indicating its ability to filter datasets using distinct properties compared to other methods. +3. $\epsilon_{i}$ can be independently applied to induce a dataset for training image-only self-supervised models, showing superior performance compared to alignment-based filtering. + +# 2 Background + +# 2.1 Hyperbolic Embeddings + +Despite the usefulness of Euclidean embeddings, they cannot capture additional instance-wise information, such as specificity. In this paper, we employ hyperbolic embeddings to capture additional information for data filtering. A hyperbolic space maps data that needs to be close to many positives at the same time (i.e., more generic data) into closer to the origin, while maps data with fewer positive pairs (i.e., more specific data) into farther away from the origin [40, 49]. Conceptually, the distance from the origin corresponds to the uncertainty represented by Euclidean Gaussian embeddings [63]. Thus, hyperbolic embeddings can naturally capture how the uncertainty of inputs caused by inherent noisy image-text pairs [12]. Practical implementations of $\mathbb{R}^n$ hyperbolic spaces include the Poincaré ball model [1, 2, 17, 18, 21, 22, 35, 49], which distorts the distances in $\mathbb{R}^n$ , and the hyperboloid model (Lorentz model), which is defined as a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ [16, 38]. A recent study, MERU [16], has successfully extended this concept to image-text contrastive models, showing better performance than CLIP in cross-modal retrieval and illustrating interesting applications of image traversal. In this paper, we focus on noisy pair filtering leveraging the specificity we can gather from the hyperbolic model, which was not addressed in MERU, and show the advantages of using hyperbolic CLIP as a filtering network. To be self-contained, we will describe the details of hyperbolic embeddings and how specificity can be measured by hyperbolic embeddings in Section 3.2. + +# 2.2 DataComp Benchmark + +For recent years, several evaluation benchmark suites have been proposed to evaluate models on various modalities, including text [68, 69], images [78], video [42], and multimodal models [60, 80]. These model-driven benchmarks include evaluation datasets and tasks, but they do not limit models and training datasets. Namely, the three factors of the scaling law [28, 29, 30, 61] –the size of the model, the amount of data, and the number of training steps– cannot be controlled through the benchmarks. It makes fair quantitative comparisons between different algorithms or methods difficult beyond the effect of scale. To address this, DataComp [20] has been proposed as a data-driven, rather than model-driven, benchmark where the size of the model and the number of training steps (the number of samples seen) are controlled and fixed. The Datacomp evaluation consists of 38 tasks, mainly grouped into four task groups: ImageNet, 6 ImageNet distribution shifts [4, 26, 27, 55], 13 VTAB [78], and 3 retrievals [6, 43, 75]. The main evaluation metric of DataComp is computed by the average score of these tasks, and additional benchmarks from CLIP [53] and WILDS [36]. In this paper, we consider the DataComp filtering track, a benchmark for evaluating the effectiveness of filtering methods. There are four different scales of datasets in terms of fixed model size, training budget, and the number of seen samples (small, medium, large, and xlarge). For example, the number of seen samples of small is $12.8\mathrm{M}$ , growing 10 times for each scale (e.g., large has $1.28\mathrm{B}$ seen samples). Therefore, for each filtering track, the training method, budget, and the number of seen samples are fixed, but only the seen samples are changed. We note that the training method is fixed as CLIP training and the evaluation protocol is fixed as the average zero-shot score on the 38 tasks of Datacomp evaluation suite. It is because CLIP demonstrates a better scaling trade-off than other methods [37, 73], and there exist well-founded open software [11, 32] and open datasets [7, 48, 57, 58] for the training. + +# 3 Method + +This section outlines the overview of HYPE filtering, the theoretical background, and the practical implementation of hyperbolic embeddings, presenting HYPE as an effective method for dataset filtering in image-text contrastive learning. + +# 3.1 Overview of HYPE + +While CLIP-based filtering captures alignment well, it cannot effectively measure the specificity of each data point. More specifically, as CLIP is trained with noisy-contrastive estimation [25, 50] using random samples as negative pairs, CLIP enforces to make each embedding located to a more distinct subspace rather than having semantic overlaps between each other. For example, consider a photo of a dog and a cat together and captions "A dog", "A cat", and "A dog and a cat" in Figure 2. In this case, as shown in Figure 2 (a), the best Euclidean space + +![](images/d6658094edd4df74839d3c21f5f2e968f84873c02c7b074b7c44920389f51335.jpg) +Fig. 2: Conceptual comparisons of Euclidean embeddings and hyperbolic embeddings. + +mapping will map the dog and cat photo to the midpoint between the embedding of 'A dog' and 'A cat', because the dog and cat photo should be matched with both dog and cat embeddings. However, the actual semantic meaning is more complex than the average of the two embeddings. As pointed out by Desai et al. [16], it is because CLIP uses the same distance metric at every point. + +Hyperbolic embedding, on the other hand, can capture more complex semantics by letting each point have different distance metrics. As shown in Figure 2 (b), hyperbolic embedding space can represent more complex information than Euclidean embedding space. Conceptually, a more generic data point (i.e., potentially matched with more samples) will be mapped into a point close to the center point in hyperbolic space. For example, the textual embeddings of "A cat" and "A dog" are closer to the center ("Animals") than that of "A dog and a cat" and "Cats and rats". Moreover, using the property of hyperbolic embedding space, we can define an "entailment" of each modality, i.e., whether the given data sample can be matched with the other data samples. For example, Figure 2 (b) also illustrates the projected view of the hyperbolic space. In the projected view, we can observe that the "A dong and a cat" caption embedding is placed where the "cones" of caption embeddings "A cat" and "A dog" (shown in purple and red areas, respectively) are overlapped. In other words, by using the concept of the "entailment cone", we can define the entailment of the given input. + +Using the entailment cones, we define the "entailment loss" $\mathcal{L}_e(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y})$ for the given image-text pair that measures whether the image $\mathbf{y}$ is correctly placed on the entailment cone of the corresponding text $\mathbf{x}$ . Then, we define the "specificity" of each input by computing the average entailment loss on the dataset. The image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ is defined as the average entailment loss, i.e., $\sum_{\mathbf{x}}\frac{\mathcal{L}_{e}(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y})}{M}$ , and the text specificity $\epsilon_{t}$ is defined similarly, $\sum_{\mathbf{y}}\frac{\mathcal{L}_{e}(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y})}{M}$ . $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ measure whether the learned hyperbolic embedding space describes the given input well. We will provide a more rigorous mathematical definition in the latter section. Figure 3 shows examples of images and texts with low and high specificity values (i.e., $\epsilon_{i}$ + +![](images/ab84457c8843216bc3037700d2709373be700cd79d49bfdde0ddf38221011b02.jpg) +Fig. 3: We show examples of low and high $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ from the 12.8M Datacomp small pool, where each percentile group spanned with $20\%$ intervals. Here, a higher value denotes that the instance is more specific (see Section 3.3 for details of $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ ). The range absolute value and their percentile $p(\cdot)$ of $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ are also shown. For texts, the lowest $\epsilon_{t}$ texts are empty sentences or the least specific texts that could fit any image, such as "Picture", while the higher $\epsilon_{t}$ texts are generally longer sentences that describe some object in detail. For images, images with low $\epsilon_{i}$ are either background images with no objects or with too many objects, while images with higher $\epsilon_{i}$ are so-called iconic images, which contain a single object that can be described with precision. + +and $\epsilon_{t}$ , respectively). As shown in the figure, samples with smaller specificities are more generic and underspecified. For example, the low $\epsilon_{i}$ values of mobile phone or tower images denote their abundant potential relative captions in the dataset. Conversely, Dalmore whisky in the "Highest" category highlights the scarcity of descriptive texts without directly mentioning "Dalmore", underscoring the metric's effectiveness in distinguishing specificity. Similarly, the captions "pic" and "Picture" have low $\epsilon_{t}$ values as they are vague to describe a specific image. + +In this paper, we propose to use not only CLIP alignment score, $\cos(\theta)$ , but the specificity scores $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ . Also, as the CLIP embedding space is not sufficient to represent complex image-text representations (as shown in Figure 2), we use the alignment score measured by our hyperbolic CLIP, $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ . Finally, following the baseline DataComp filtering, we additionally employ the ImageNet clustering filter $c_{\mathrm{IN}}$ , which denotes whether the given image belongs to ImageNet classes. Our HYPE score is defined as follows: + +$$ +\mathrm {H Y P E} _ {\text {s c o r e}} = \epsilon_ {i} + \epsilon_ {t} - d _ {\mathcal {L}} + \cos (\theta) + c _ {\mathrm {I N}} \tag {1} +$$ + +In the following subsections, we will provide the details of the hyperbolic CLIP [16] and more formal theoretical explanations of the meaning of $\epsilon_{i}$ and $\epsilon_{t}$ . + +# 3.2 Hyperbolic CLIP + +In this subsection, we provide a brief introduction to hyperbolic embeddings and its multimodal version, MERU [16]. Hyperbolic embeddings have been actively + +studied on diverse modalities, such as images [77] or text [65]. Recently, Desai et al. [16] applied hyperbolic embeddings to image-text joint embedding space based on CLIP, named MERU. MERU is based on the Lorentz model, which uses the upper half of a two-sheeted hyperboloid in the $n + 1$ -dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n + 1}$ to represent the $n$ -dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathcal{L}^n$ . The $\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^{n + 1} = [\mathbf{x}_{space}, x_{time}]$ in this space consists of two components [46]: One is $\mathbf{x}_{space} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ in the $n$ -dimensional space dimension and the other is $x_{time} \in \mathbb{R}$ in the one-dimensional time axis. This hyperboloid is symmetric with respect to the time axis and has a Lorentzian inner product $\langle \mathbf{x}, \mathbf{y} \rangle_{\mathcal{L}} = \langle \mathbf{x}_{space}, \mathbf{y}_{space} \rangle - x_{time} y_{time}$ , which is different from the Euclidean inner product. From this inner product, the Lorentzian norm is $\| \mathbf{x} \|_{\mathcal{L}} = \sqrt{|\langle \mathbf{x}, \mathbf{x} \rangle_{\mathcal{L}}|}$ is derived. Since the Lorentz model is defined to have a constant curvature of $-c$ at all points: $\mathcal{L}^n = \{\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^{n + 1} : \langle \mathbf{x}, \mathbf{x} \rangle_{\mathcal{L}} = -1 / c, c > 0\}$ , we can derive $x_{time}$ from $\mathbf{x}_{space}$ : + +$$ +x _ {t i m e} = \sqrt {1 / c + \left\| \mathbf {x} _ {s p a c e} \right\| ^ {2}} \tag {2} +$$ + +MERU is built upon the Lorentz model and the CLIP architecture. MERU does not $L^2$ normalize $\mathbf{v}_{enc} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ , the embedding that passed the last linear projection in CLIP. Instead, MERU uses $\mathbf{v}_{space} = \mathbf{v}_{enc}$ to define $\mathbf{v} = [\mathbf{v}_{enc}, 0] \in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and uses it as a point in the tangent space on the hyperboloid origin $\mathbf{O} = [0, \sqrt{1 / c}]$ (this is because $\langle \mathbf{O}, \mathbf{v} \rangle_{\mathcal{L}} = 0$ holds). MERU multiplies $\mathbf{v}$ by a learnable scalar $\alpha$ initialized as $\sqrt{1 / n}$ . The negative Lorentzian distance, which we will use as a similarity for the contrastive learning is defined as: + +$$ +- d _ {\mathcal {L}} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) = - \sqrt {1 / c} \cdot \cosh^ {- 1} (- c \langle \mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y} \rangle_ {\mathcal {L}}) \tag {3} +$$ + +As $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ can only be calculated on a manifold, not the tangent space, we need to map $\mathbf{v}$ in the tangent space to the manifold. Luckily, as MERU only deals with the tangent space of the origin $\mathbf{O}$ , this exponential map can be simplified into: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} _ {s p a c e} = \frac {\sinh (\sqrt {c} \| \mathbf {v} _ {s p a c e} \|)}{\sqrt {c} \| \mathbf {v} _ {s p a c e} \|} \mathbf {v} _ {s p a c e} \tag {4} +$$ + +By applying the exponential map to text and image embeddings, MERU can find the $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ between positive and negative pairs in a batch, which can be simply used instead of the cosine similarity of CLIP's InfoNCE loss to train the model. MERU simplifies the exponential map by using the tangent space of the origin, thus minimizing potential numerical instability in the model's computation. + +# 3.3 Entailment Cone and Specificity + +Now, we describe how we can measure specificity using hyperbolic embeddings. Note that $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ also can perform as a filtering metric as a better alignment measure rather than the vanilla CLIP distance $\cos(\theta)$ . However, $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ can only measure alignment between images and texts but cannot measure how each image or text is specific. This paper proposes a new instance-wise filtering metric named specificity based on the concept of entailment. The concept of entailment has its roots in logic and linguistics, long before its incorporation into machine learning [64, 66]. In logic, entailment is a fundamental relationship where the + +truth of one statement guarantees the truth of another. In natural language processing (NLP), a number of tasks have been created to verify that the language model can properly capture this entailment relationship (i.e., semantic containment and exclusion): RTE [3, 5, 14, 24], MNLI [70], WNLI [41], etc., and these tasks form a significant part of the GLUE benchmark [68, 69]. Beyond NLP, tasks have also been created in the vision-and-language domain, such as SNLI-VE [71, 72], to evaluate cross-modal entailment relationships between images and text. The concept of an entailment cone emerges when we consider how entailment relationships can be represented in a vector space. The idea is that for a given concept represented by a vector, there exists a cone in the vector space within which all vectors that are semantically entailed by the original term fall. + +While the implementation of entailment cones in the vision-and-language context can be done through order embedding [67], Desai et al. [16] borrows the concepts of Ganea et al. [21] and Le et al. [38] to train MERU using entailment loss, which is involved in the training of the model. In the hyperboloid space drawn by MERU, an entailment cone is defined as a half-aperture with $K = 0.1$ : + +$$ +\operatorname {a p e r} (\mathbf {x}) = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {2 K}{\sqrt {c} \| \mathbf {x} _ {\text {s p a c e}} \|}\right) \tag {5} +$$ + +Desai et al. [16] empirically demonstrated that text always entails an image. This concept can be taken for granted because text, with its symbolic representation, is always less specific than an image with pixel-level speci + +ficity. Thus, entailment loss makes the model learn such that the image embedding of a positive image-text pair falls within the cone of its paired text (See Figure 2 (b) as an example). The acute angle that the image embedding $\mathbf{y}$ makes with the text embedding $\mathbf{x}$ can be found following hyperbolic trigonometry: + +$$ +\operatorname {e x t} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) = \cos^ {- 1} \left(\frac {y _ {\text {t i m e}} + x _ {\text {t i m e}} c \langle \mathbf {x} , \mathbf {y} \rangle_ {\mathcal {L}}}{\| \mathbf {x} _ {\text {s p a c e}} \| \sqrt {(c \langle \mathbf {x} , \mathbf {y} \rangle_ {\mathcal {L}}) ^ {2} - 1}}\right) \tag {6} +$$ + +Entailment loss is then determined by the difference between this deviation and the size of the cone: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {e} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) = \max (0, \operatorname {e x t} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) - \operatorname {a p e r} (\mathbf {x})) \tag {7} +$$ + +The visual explanation of Eqn. 5, 6 and 7 is illustrated in Figure 4. The $\mathcal{L}_e$ alone still requires image-text pairs. To use this value independently to measure uni-modal specificity, we first sorted all samples from the DataComp medium in descending order of CLIP similarity, and then selected the top $N$ samples. We then measured the $\mathcal{L}_e$ for each image and text MERU embedding in the DataComp medium against the MERU embeddings of the opposite modality in the $N$ samples and averaged these values. We used the $M$ images and $M$ texts with the highest average $\mathcal{L}_e$ as our reference set: $S_i$ and $S_t$ , respectively. We + +![](images/9c2f20ebf0a600701b1b5d32c183068af31ff8252ed5d4354f69c8e0dfac7d7b.jpg) +Fig.4: Visual example of aper Eqn. 5, ext Eqn. 6 and entailment loss Eqn. 7. + +Table 1: DataComp statistics. We have fewer samples than the original release of DataComp small (12.8M) and medium (128M) due to inaccessible URLs. We confirmed that the overall metric statistics of the samples remain largely unchanged for both scales. Hence, we expect that using these metrics as filtering will achieve almost similar results even when the scale goes beyond DataComp medium. Also, $\epsilon_{t}$ is significantly lower than $\epsilon_{i}$ , namely, text always entails an image empirically. + +

The relatively low variance of metrics shown in Table 1 shows that the specificity values remain consistent across different reference sets, suggesting that it is invariant to the choice of dataset and not subject to bias. Now, given any image, we can calculate its $\mathcal{L}_e$ with the $M$ text reference set, and we define this value as image specificity $\epsilon_{i}$ . Similarly, we can calculate the $\mathcal{L}_e$ value for text, and define this value as text specificity $\epsilon_{t}$ : + +$$ +\epsilon_ {t} (\mathbf {x}) = \sum_ {\mathbf {y} \in \mathcal {S} _ {i}} \mathcal {L} _ {e} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) / M \text {a n d} \epsilon_ {i} (\mathbf {y}) = \sum_ {\mathbf {x} \in \mathcal {S} _ {t}} \mathcal {L} _ {e} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {y}) / M \tag {8} +$$ + +# 3.4 Hyperbolic Entailment Filtering (HYPE) + +Here, we describe the details of HYPE. We first train a MERU model with ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/14 backbones on CC3M [59] and CC12M [8] in addition to RedCaps [15]. Both models were trained on 8 V100s with a batch size of 2048. The models were optimized using AdamW [44], with a weight decay of 0.2, $(\beta_{1},\beta_{2}) = (0.9,0.98)$ , and a learning rate of $5\times 10^{-4}$ . After a warm-up of 4,000 steps, ViT-B/16 was trained for 62,500 steps and ViT-L/14 for 125,000 steps using a cosine decay learn rate schedule. Our implementation is based on the OpenCLIP codebase [32]. Training of ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/14 MERU models took approximately 10 hours and 61 hours, respectively. + +![](images/c915c1045498cc9779a72db9c05d526ffd1daa49f64e52356e5f12194c95c71e.jpg) +Fig. 5: Comparisons with baseline filtering methods and HYPE. We show the subsampled Datacomp training set from $10\%$ to $40\%$ and evaluate them across four Datacomp benchmark task groups. Each model was trained four times with varied seeds. $10\%$ and $30\%$ results are the same as Table 4. + +![](images/dcaeb1d7175c71ea20564ed155ff34b228cb4105117b1e7ef28a2a7645e0841e.jpg) + +![](images/e4b3f5e39a908f37d4930ebb4c3e96c7261f266909cc68f7feb77e128c948b4c.jpg) + +![](images/cbdaac1ee6a3f9fb567d02d64b123a59a8243710adf6d84f487eab444916066a.jpg) + +Note that the original MERU by Desai et al. [16] was trained solely on the RedCaps [15] dataset. We added more clean data points to allow better filtering capability, as the findings of DFN [19] and our discussion in Sec. 4.1. We also note that the original MERU uses ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/16 backbones with their textual encoder having a hidden size of 512. Since DataComp [20] uses ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/14 for its baseline CLIP filtering method, we retrained MERU on ViT-B/16, which has a 512 textual encoder hidden size, and ViT-L/14, which has a 768 textual encoder hidden size, with the expanded dataset. The results of MERU re-training are shown in Table 2. Surprisingly, even when all the training hyperparameters, including the batch size, were the same as in the original MERU, and the training was done with fewer steps (ViT-B/16), the zero-shot performance of the reproduced MERU model was significantly better than that of the original MERU. All results in this paper are based on the hyperbolic embeddings obtained by our reproduced ViT-L/14 MERU. + +We extract $\epsilon_{i}$ , $\epsilon_{t}$ , and $-d_{\mathcal{L}}$ for every sample in the target image-text dataset using our MERU model. For each sample, we also compute and store the ImageNet clustering-based image filter used by DataComp and the CLIP score $\cos(\theta)$ of the ViT-L/14 CLIP. The clustering-based filter $c_{\mathrm{IN}}$ is quantified as a value of 10 if included and 0 if not, enabling preferential use. Table 1 summarizes the statistics for the datasets tested in this paper. The $\mathrm{HYPE}_{\mathrm{score}}$ is obtained by linearly combining all the metrics with equal weight as defined in Eqn. 1. + +Note that the metrics used for HYPE have the same computation complexity as the CLIP distance. On the other hand, a number of the existing filtering methods need more complex computations, such as the OCR engine (T-MARS [45]) and additional clustering operations (CIDS [76]). Also, we argue that our method is data-efficient compared to the previous model-driven filtering methods (our method: 27M, CLIP: 400M, DFN [19]: 2B) Our method is simple yet archives the first place in small and medium DataComp leaderboards. + +# 3.5 Ablation study + +In this subsection, we provide ablation studies of HYPE design choices. First, we show that using our metric outperforms solely using CLIP similarity or solely + +using specificity in Figure 5. Across sample sizes from $10\%$ to $40\%$ and across four Datacomp benchmark task groups, HYPE consistently outperformed each metric alone. Note that the gaps can be small in $40\%$ samples because they share more samples, thus less filtering effect. In $10\%$ or $20\%$ , where filtering works more sensitively, HYPE always outperforms the baseline methods with large gaps. This demonstrates that, as suggested in Figure 1, each metric, when used in isolation, is limited in its ability to filter out data that adversely affects image-text contrastive learning. + +We also examined the effect of each component of HYPE in Table 3. Our findings confirm that while $c_{\mathrm{IN}}$ enhances IN zero-shot, omitting $c_{\mathrm{IN}}$ yielded superior average performance (1st vs. 2nd rows). The results of removing $\cos(\theta)$ (3rd row) are inspiring: + +Table 3: Ablation study + +

We also found that there is no single weight combination for Eqn. 1 that performs best for all datasets.

Before that, we will discuss the methods we used as a baseline for filtering in image-text contrastive learning. + +# 4.1 Comparison Methods + +In this paper, "filtering" refers to the process of excluding samples from the training data, while "sampling" refers to how often each sample is used for training. Here, we introduce the major baselines of the DataComp filtering benchmark. The most simple baseline filters the dataset by language (e.g., leaving only English text), text length (e.g., more than two words or five characters), and image size (e.g., aspect ratio of 3 or less and shorter axis more than 200 pixels). There are two methods that empirically perform well. One is image-based clustering, which groups the CLIP embeddings 100K centroids and then filters the samples in centroids based on whether one of the images in ImageNet is closest to the centroid of the cluster to which each sample belongs. The other is CLIP score filtering we explained before. Recently, three notable approaches have been proposed for Datacomp medium scale: DFN [19], CIDS [76], and T-MARS [45]. + +Data Filtering Networks (DFN) [19] is a model-centric approach without multi-step filtering; they directly train a network determines whether filtering + +Table 4: We have compared HYPE with concurrent works challenging the Datacomp benchmark.

+ +out the given data. The authors showed that CLIP cosine similarity-based DFN performs the best among the other possible variants, such as, autoencoder [23]. The DFN paper also observes that training DFN with high-quality training samples (i.e., a proprietary dataset, such as HQITP-357M [19, 54]) is crucial for better filtering, compared to low-quality and large-scale training samples. Note that the best-performing DFN is trained on HQITP-357M, whose scale is already beyond the DataComp medium of 128M, making it very resource-intensive. + +Cluster-Importance-based Data Selection (CIDS) [76] uses the 38 Data-comp evaluation datasets to filter out samples dissimilar to the target evaluation datasets and then duplicates the samples with similar distributions for more extensive training sampling. While this method does not require a significant amount of additional computing resources, it has a notable drawback: the model needs to know on which dataset the CLIP will be evaluated before filtering. + +Text-Masking and Re-Scoring (T-MARS) [45] reveals that many samples in noisy datasets, like DataComp's dataset pool, are simple OCR samples (image-text pairs that simply transcribe the text in the image). This helps CLIP focus on learning visual semantics by retaining only those images in the data pool that still have high CLIP scores after masking the text in the images. However, removing all OCR-like samples would harm the performance of tasks like MNIST [39], SVHN [47], and RenderedSST2 [53] in DataComp's evaluation dataset; therefore, they still require CLIP to read the text in the images. + +# 4.2 Image-Text Contrastive Pre-training + +Table 4 includes the DataComp filtering track results of the main competitors (i.e., DFN [19], CIDS [76] and T-MARS [45]) and the ensemble filtering with + +weak supervision [31]. As mentioned in Table 1, we only use the subset of the official DataComp due to the dissipated URLs (about $10\%$ samples were lost). For a fair comparison, we obtained the sample IDs used by the two best-performing methods on DataComp medium: CIDS [76] and DFN [19], and reproduced the model with only those belonging to our pool - denoted with asterisk $(\ast)$ . + +In the table, we observe that HYPE performs extremely well in retrieval scores, e.g., HYPE $20\%$ Medium shows 0.286 retrieval, which outperforms all the baselines. We believe that it is because hyperbolic embeddings significantly improve retrieval performances compared to the CLIP embedding (as observed in Table 2), making the filtered data samples by HYPE more suitable for retrieval tasks. This is especially noteworthy given that DFN used 357M high-quality proprietary image-text pairs while HYPE is achievable with a much smaller 27M publicly accessible dataset. Note that DataComp only contains 3 retrieval task groups out of 38 tasks; therefore, if we add more retrieval tasks for the evaluation benchmark, HYPE will achieve a higher average score than others. + +Second, HYPE can be combined with the other methods. As our specificity metric is single-modality filtering and orthogonal to cross-modality filtering, such as CLIP filtering, all other baselines rely on, it can properly filter underspecified examples as shown in Figure 1. This characteristic helps us to mark the first rank in the DataComp small and medium track by combining HYPE with DFN. + +Additionally, we trained two more B/16 models with different training seen samples, 128M and 256M, whose IN-ZS accuracies are $42.3\%$ and $47.6\%$ . With these models, we report their correlation to DataComp medium's IN-ZS accuracy as described in [19]. As shown in Figure 6, a better-performing MERU model consistently induces a more effective filtering network, evidenced by improved zero-shot accuracy. This upward trend sug + +![](images/20a7663e28ca98dceaf1057d99c21673960f73bdda248908b49537a7afffe971.jpg) +Fig.6: Filtering network IN-ZS acc. vs. Induced networks IN-ZS acc.

Specifically, we investigate the image specificity metric $(\epsilon_{i})$ -based filtering for image-only self-supervised learning (SSL) methods, as previous works highlight the significance of iconic images in SSL training [52]. Since $\epsilon_{i}$ can efficiently identify iconic images (as shown in Figure 3), we can expect that $\epsilon_{i}$ -based filtering will lead to better SSL performances. We filter out underspecified images from the DataComp medium dataset and measure the SSL performances using two methods, SimCLR [9], and + +Table 5: ImageNet-1K linear probing classification accuracies of ViT-S.

For the comparison, we use the established hyperparameters searched on ImageNet. Following the practice of the DataComp filtering track, we keep the number of seen samples fixed for every dataset size, i.e., we use more epochs for smaller dataset sizes. We report the linear probing performances on the ImageNet validation set following the standard SSL evaluation protocol. Table 5 reveals that $\epsilon_{i}$ consistently outperforms $\cos(\theta)$ across all dataset sizes and models. Note that MoCo-v3 trained with a dataset induced by $\epsilon_{i}$ outperforms SimCLR trained with a dataset induced by $\cos(\theta)$ for the most of dataset sizes. This result shows that the lower-performing SSL method can outperform the higher-performing ones by simply replacing the data. + +# 5 Discussion and Future Work + +We conclude this paper by discussing the limitations of our method and outlining future research directions. A notable limitation is that our experiments did not include the larger DataComp subsets, specifically the large and xlarge scales. Considering that HYPE shows an increasing performance gap as the dataset size grows—from small to medium—it is reasonable to hypothesize that HYPE might demonstrate exceptional performance when applied to these larger datasets. + +Furthermore, HYPE was designed with a hyperbolic CLIP size set to L/14, aligning with Datacomp's standards. However, there is a strong basis to believe that employing a larger hyperbolic CLIP architecture could significantly enhance performance metrics. Additionally, our research solely utilized $\epsilon_{i}$ to create an image-only dataset. We posit that employing $\epsilon_{t}$ to generate a text dataset could result in a visually meaningful text corpus. This new corpus could be instrumental in training a language model capable of rapidly adapting to visual inputs. Finally, we recognize the potential for extensive ablation studies, especially regarding the coefficient used in merging metrics for HYPE, such in-depth analysis could yield further insights into the filtering model's behavior and performance, thereby enhancing its overall efficacy. + +# References + +[1] Mina Ghadimi Atigh, Julian Schoep, Erman Acar, Nanne Van Noord, and Pascal Mettes.

In an era where the volume of data drives the effectiveness of self-supervised learning, the specificity and clarity of data semantics play a crucial role in model training. Addressing this, we introduce HYPerbolic Entailment filtering (HYPE), a novel methodology designed to meticulously extract modality-wise meaningful and well-aligned data from extensive, noisy image-text pair datasets. Our approach leverages hyperbolic embeddings and the concept of entailment cones to evaluate and filter out samples with meaningless or underspecified semantics, focusing on enhancing the specificity of each data sample. HYPE not only demonstrates a significant improvement in filtering efficiency but also sets a new state-of-the-art in the DataComp benchmark when combined with existing filtering techniques. This breakthrough showcases the potential of HYPE to refine the data selection process, thereby contributing to the development of more accurate and efficient self-supervised learning models.

However, human-validated dataset construction is labor-intensive, making its scale-up expensive and impractical. As an alternative, there have been attempts to scale up noisy data points until reaching the performance garnered from carefully collected high-quality training datasets [11, 33, 51]. However, this approach requires more than billion-scale data points that introduces another challenges in computational costs and storage size.

Namely, the three factors of the scaling law [28, 29, 30, 61] –the size of the model, the amount of data, and the number of training steps– cannot be controlled through the benchmarks. It makes fair quantitative comparisons between different algorithms or methods difficult beyond the effect of scale. To address this, DataComp [20] has been proposed as a data-driven, rather than model-driven, benchmark where the size of the model and the number of training steps (the number of samples seen) are controlled and fixed. The Datacomp evaluation consists of 38 tasks, mainly grouped into four task groups: ImageNet, 6 ImageNet distribution shifts [4, 26, 27, 55], 13 VTAB [78], and 3 retrievals [6, 43, 75]. The main evaluation metric of DataComp is computed by the average score of these tasks, and additional benchmarks from CLIP [53] and WILDS [36]. In this paper, we consider the DataComp filtering track, a benchmark for evaluating the effectiveness of filtering methods.

Therefore, for each filtering track, the training method, budget, and the number of seen samples are fixed, but only the seen samples are changed. We note that the training method is fixed as CLIP training and the evaluation protocol is fixed as the average zero-shot score on the 38 tasks of Datacomp evaluation suite.

For example, the textual embeddings of \"A cat\" and \"A dog\" are closer to the center (\"Animals\") than that of \"A dog and a cat\" and \"Cats and rats\". Moreover, using the property of hyperbolic embedding space, we can define an \"entailment\" of each modality, i.e., whether the given data sample can be matched with the other data samples. For example, Figure 2 (b) also illustrates the projected view of the hyperbolic space. In the projected view, we can observe that the \"A dong and a cat\" caption embedding is placed where the \"cones\" of caption embeddings \"A cat\" and \"A dog\" (shown in purple and red areas, respectively) are overlapped.

We also note that the original MERU uses ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/16 backbones with their textual encoder having a hidden size of 512. Since DataComp [20] uses ViT-B/16 and ViT-L/14 for its baseline CLIP filtering method, we retrained MERU on ViT-B/16, which has a 512 textual encoder hidden size, and ViT-L/14, which has a 768 textual encoder hidden size, with the expanded dataset. The results of MERU re-training are shown in Table 2. Surprisingly, even when all the training hyperparameters, including the batch size, were the same as in the original MERU, and the training was done with fewer steps (ViT-B/16), the zero-shot performance of the reproduced MERU model was significantly better than that of the original MERU.

The most simple baseline filters the dataset by language (e.g., leaving only English text), text length (e.g., more than two words or five characters), and image size (e.g., aspect ratio of 3 or less and shorter axis more than 200 pixels). There are two methods that empirically perform well.

Hallucination has been a major problem for large language models and remains a critical challenge when it comes to multimodality in which vision-language models (VLMs) have to deal with not just textual but also visual inputs. Despite rapid progress in VLMs, resources for evaluating and addressing multimodal hallucination are limited and mostly focused on evaluation. This work introduces HaloQuest, a novel visual question answering dataset that captures various aspects of multimodal hallucination such as false premises, insufficient contexts, and visual challenges. A novel idea from HaloQuest is to leverage synthetic images, apart from real ones, to enable dataset creation at scale. With over 7.7K examples spanning across a wide variety of categories, HaloQuest was designed to be both a challenging benchmark for VLMs and a fine-tuning dataset for advancing multimodal reasoning. Our experiments reveal that current models struggle with HaloQuest, with all open-source VLMs achieving below $36\\%$ accuracy. On the other hand, fine-tuning on HaloQuest significantly reduces hallucination rates while preserving performance on standard reasoning tasks. Our results discover that benchmarking with generated images is highly correlated $(r = 0.97)$ with real images. Last but not least, we propose a novel Auto-Eval mechanism that is highly correlated with human raters $(r = 0.99)$ for evaluating VLMs. In sum, this work makes concrete strides towards understanding, evaluating, and mitigating hallucination in VLMs, serving as an important step towards more reliable multimodal AI systems in the future.", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 342, + 740, + 661 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Keywords: Hallucination $\\cdot$ Vision-Language Models $\\cdot$ Datasets", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 674, + 689, + 688 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 712, + 375, + 728 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Hallucination, the generation of factually incorrect or inconsistent information, poses a critical challenge for the reliability of vision-language models (VLMs) [7, 13, 29, 40].

Hallucination has been a major problem for large language models and remains a critical challenge when it comes to multimodality in which vision-language models (VLMs) have to deal with not just textual but also visual inputs. Despite rapid progress in VLMs, resources for evaluating and addressing multimodal hallucination are limited and mostly focused on evaluation. This work introduces HaloQuest, a novel visual question answering dataset that captures various aspects of multimodal hallucination such as false premises, insufficient contexts, and visual challenges. A novel idea from HaloQuest is to leverage synthetic images, apart from real ones, to enable dataset creation at scale. With over 7.7K examples spanning across a wide variety of categories, HaloQuest was designed to be both a challenging benchmark for VLMs and a fine-tuning dataset for advancing multimodal reasoning. Our experiments reveal that current models struggle with HaloQuest, with all open-source VLMs achieving below \\(36\\%\\) accuracy. On the other hand, fine-tuning on HaloQuest significantly reduces hallucination rates while preserving performance on standard reasoning tasks. Our results discover that benchmarking with generated images is highly correlated \\((r = 0.97)\\) with real images. Last but not least, we propose a novel Auto-Eval mechanism that is highly correlated with human raters \\((r = 0.99)\\) for evaluating VLMs. In sum, this work makes concrete strides towards understanding, evaluating, and mitigating hallucination in VLMs, serving as an important step towards more reliable multimodal AI systems in the future." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.262, + 0.675, + 0.691, + 0.689 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: Hallucination \\(\\cdot\\) Vision-Language Models \\(\\cdot\\) Datasets" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.713, + 0.376, + 0.729 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.743, + 0.788, + 0.806 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Hallucination, the generation of factually incorrect or inconsistent information, poses a critical challenge for the reliability of vision-language models (VLMs) [7, 13, 29, 40].

Hallucination has been a major problem for large language models and remains a critical challenge when it comes to multimodality in which vision-language models (VLMs) have to deal with not just textual but also visual inputs. Despite rapid progress in VLMs, resources for evaluating and addressing multimodal hallucination are limited and mostly focused on evaluation. This work introduces HaloQuest, a novel visual question answering dataset that captures various aspects of multimodal hallucination such as false premises, insufficient contexts, and visual challenges. A novel idea from HaloQuest is to leverage synthetic images, apart from real ones, to enable dataset creation at scale. With over 7.7K examples spanning across a wide variety of categories, HaloQuest was designed to be both a challenging benchmark for VLMs and a fine-tuning dataset for advancing multimodal reasoning. Our experiments reveal that current models struggle with HaloQuest, with all open-source VLMs achieving below $36\%$ accuracy. On the other hand, fine-tuning on HaloQuest significantly reduces hallucination rates while preserving performance on standard reasoning tasks. Our results discover that benchmarking with generated images is highly correlated $(r = 0.97)$ with real images. Last but not least, we propose a novel Auto-Eval mechanism that is highly correlated with human raters $(r = 0.99)$ for evaluating VLMs. In sum, this work makes concrete strides towards understanding, evaluating, and mitigating hallucination in VLMs, serving as an important step towards more reliable multimodal AI systems in the future. + +Keywords: Hallucination $\cdot$ Vision-Language Models $\cdot$ Datasets + +# 1 Introduction + +Hallucination, the generation of factually incorrect or inconsistent information, poses a critical challenge for the reliability of vision-language models (VLMs) [7, 13, 29, 40]. Hallucination in these systems can result from visual misinterpretations [24, 32, 49], misaligned language understanding [12], or the generation of + +responses unsupported by either modality [27]. This issue is particularly concerning as VLMs find increasing use in real-world applications where inaccurate information can have harmful consequences, such as in autonomous vehicles [14,34,37] or medical diagnosis [3,47,50]. Research into mitigating hallucination is hindered by limited image datasets, a lack of comprehensive evaluation systems targeting a variety of hallucination triggers, and the difficulty of open-ended evaluation for complex visual question answering tasks [9, 16, 21, 27, 46, 57]. + +To address these limitations, this work introduces HaloQuest, a novel visual question answering (VQA) dataset comprised of both real and synthetically generated images. By leveraging prompt-based image generation, HaloQuest overcomes the constraints of traditional datasets, allowing for the creation of images from various categories, including highly unusual and abstract visual scenes. The dataset includes questions spanning three categories designed to trigger common hallucination scenarios: questions with false premises, questions lacking sufficient context for accurate interpretation, and questions that are otherwise challenging to answer correctly. This focus, coupled with a machine-human-in-the-loop data generation pipeline, enables the collection of challenging examples that target specific weaknesses in current VLM models. + +Experiments with HaloQuest demonstrate that modern VLMs struggle to handle these complex visual scenes and question types, highlighting a significant gap between current capabilities and real-world requirements. Importantly, finetuning these models on HaloQuest reduces hallucination rates while preserving their performance on standard reasoning tasks. This establishes HaloQuest as a valuable benchmark for VLM hallucination research, enabling the development of more robust models. + +This study underscores the potential of synthetic images to enhance visual-language understanding evaluation. Existing image-text datasets are primarily sourced from MS-COCO and Flickr and exhibit limited image diversity [26]. Utilizing prompt-based synthetic images circumvents this constraint, offering a cost-effective and scalable solution. Notably, these synthetic images can encompass diverse visual scenarios, including unusual, complex, and abstract scenes rarely found in real-world datasets. The increasing quality and real-world adoption of prompt-based synthetic images, particularly in advertising and design, necessitates robust model evaluation against potential hallucinations. By overcoming the reliance on limited real-world image datasets, HaloQuest paves the way for the design of more comprehensive and challenging evaluation suites. + +Standard evaluation approaches often rely on multiple-choice or finite vocabulary answers [4,10,33,44,60]. This limits the model's ability to express nuanced or complex responses, failing to fully mirror real-world scenarios. Furthermore, accurately evaluating extended, hallucinated predictions is particularly difficult. Consequently, previous studies on hallucination evaluation have relied on methods like manual assessment [12, 16], counting hallucinated objects [24], using conventional caption evaluation metrics [32], or restricting response formats [27]. These approaches cannot capture a model's full ability to generate coherent, detailed, and contextually appropriate responses. They are especially impractical + +when evaluating complex hallucinations arising from generated visual scenarios. To address this limitation, this work employs an Automatic Evaluation (AutoEval) mechanism where a language model assesses the VLM's responses [38]. This Auto-Eval system allows for nuanced, open-ended evaluation of model responses and provides a dynamic system that can adapt alongside future advancements. + +In sum, this work makes several contributions to the field of vision-language understanding. First, HaloQuest is introduced, a novel VQA dataset featuring both real and synthetic images, designed to address the limitations of current datasets. HaloQuest includes a variety of image content and questions targeting specific hallucination triggers, and utilizes an innovative machine-human-in-the-loop data generation pipeline. Second, the effectiveness of HaloQuest as a benchmark is demonstrated, highlighting the limitations of current VLM models and showing how fine-tuning on HaloQuest significantly reduces hallucination. Finally, an LLM-based Auto-Eval system is introduced for open-ended, dynamic evaluation, and the potential of synthetic images to revolutionize VLM evaluation is explored. This work paves the way for the development of more robust and reliable multimodal AI systems. + +# 2 Related Work + +Hallucination, the generation of factually incorrect or inconsistent information, is a well-documented issue in large language models (LLMs) [8, 17, 23]. Within the domain of vision and language understanding, hallucinations can manifest in several ways, including misinterpretation of visual elements, misaligned language understanding, or responses unsupported by either modality. While still a developing area of study, recent works have begun to explore these vision-specific hallucination phenomena [16, 18, 24, 32, 39, 57, 63]. Consequently, research efforts have focused on understanding, evaluating, and mitigating hallucination in VLMs. + +There are a number of mechanisms that may cause a VLM to hallucinate. An over-reliance on language priors [42] is one such mechanism. For example, models often learn pairs of objects that co-occur together, and the presence of "keyboard" may bias a model towards outputting "mouse" or "monitor," even if one is not present in the image [63]. Certain statistics can also be predictive of hallucination. An output token with low probability may indicate a model is hallucinating due to low confidence, while tokens towards the end of a long response may be hallucinatory if the model is running out of meaningful things to say [63]. It is also possible to understand hallucination in isolated instances by directly inspecting the attention weights to see what the model is attending to when it outputs hallucinatory text [51]. Despite these advancements, hallucination in VLMs is still not completely understood, in part because evaluating hallucination is not trivial. + +Existing approaches for evaluating hallucinations in VLMs have limitations. Methods that use binary yes/no questions [24], are constrained to short-word answers [27], rely on caption evaluation metrics [13,42], and require manual as- + +sessment [12], often prioritize verifying the presence or absence of objects and thus are inherently limited. Consequently, they may not be well-suited to comprehensively evaluate nuanced hallucinations within free-form, open-ended answers. This lack of robust evaluation metrics hinders efforts to develop effective mitigation strategies. + +Despite these challenges in comprehensively evaluating hallucination, some progress has been made towards mitigation [16,31,49,61]. Existing efforts center around several key strategies, such as knowledge grounding with self-feedback [21], finetuning on both positive and negative examples [28], and post-hoc response correction [63]. Reliance on real-world image datasets also introduces limitations, as these datasets often lack the complexity necessary to fully expose and address different hallucination triggers [46]. + +HaloQuest directly confronts shortcomings prevalent in hallucination understanding, evaluation, and mitigation. Experimental results from false premise questions, visually challenge questions, and questions with insufficient context elucidate the gap between current models' performance and modern expectations. This work also leverages an open-ended question format and introduces an LLM-based Auto-Eval mechanism which moves beyond traditional object-centric metrics, allowing for more nuanced evaluation of complex hallucinations [38]. Furthermore, HaloQuest makes use of both real and synthetically generated images, resulting in a powerful and complex dataset that is effective at reducing hallucination rates [10, 35, 54]. Together, these contributions make HaloQuest a valuable benchmark for the vision-and-language community, setting a new standard for hallucination research. + +# 3 HaloQuest + +This section describes the HaloQuest dataset. It details the image collection methodology, the design of questions to trigger hallucinations, the filtering and refinement process, and the LLM-based Auto-Eval mechanism. Example HaloQuest entries are shown in Figure 1. + +# 3.1 Image Collection + +First, to ensure a rich and varied dataset, HaloQuest leverages both real and synthetic images. The real images are a random sample from the Open Images dataset, and synthetic images are sourced from online Midjourney and Stable Diffusion galleries [2, 20, 43]. Images are selected based on high view counts and positive ratings in order to prioritize quality and relevance. Search queries incorporating combinations of topic words from a carefully curated list inspired by PartiPrompts are used to retrieve a varied range of images [59, Table 1]. + +Human annotators filter this initial set of images according to two criteria. The images should be interesting or unusual, but they must also be comprehensible. For example, images are deemed interesting if they depict scenarios outside of everyday experiences, contain unexpected juxtapositions of objects, + +![](images/916d504347c37d0b090e2e98ab27cc522d8978f846c21ba389d97be23747174c.jpg) +Fig. 1: Example entries from HaloQuest (bottom) and other benchmarks (top). Current benchmarks often do not incorporate synthetic images, require one-word responses, are multiple choice, or simply ask for an image description. In contrast, HaloQuest contains challenging questions in three categories, uses both real and synthetic images, and makes use of Auto-Eval to allow for free-form answer evaluation. + +like the dog dressed in a costume made from newspaper shown in Figure 2, or feature visually striking elements. These images could include scenes that defy real-world physics or logic. However, the images must be coherent, artifact-free and understandable by humans, despite their unconventional nature. Checking for these two criteria strikes a balance between generating challenging scenarios and maintaining the ability to reliably attribute model responses to specific weaknesses in reasoning or understanding. + +# 3.2 Designing Questions to Elicit Hallucination + +Once the images are collected, humans and LLMs craft questions and answers about the images, focusing on creativity, nuanced reasoning, and probing potential model biases. Specifically, HaloQuest includes three categories of questions designed to elicit hallucinations. + +First, questions with a false premise contain statements or assumptions that directly contradict the visual content of the image. They are designed to test whether the model can correctly prioritize visual evidence over misleading linguistic cues. + +Next, questions that are visually challenging require a deep understanding of image details, such as counting objects, determining spatial relationships, or reasoning about occluded areas. They evaluate the model's ability to perform complex visual analysis. + +![](images/810c7ef1fc933adeb29f8202deacbf289dff4373668c51479503b69a80cc383b.jpg) +Fig. 2: HaloQuest data collection pipeline. First, both real and synthetic images are collected from various sources. Next, humans and LLMs create question-answer pairs designed to elicit hallucination. Finally, a filtering mechanism removes the entires that are overly simple or ambiguous. The result is a challenging dataset that effectively exposes model hallucination tendencies. + +Table 1: Curated lists of image subject and attributes inspired by PartiPrompts [59]. Image queries are created by randomly selecting one subject and one attribute from the lists. Utilizing prompt-based image generation allows for creating a visually complex dataset in a precise, controllable manner, resulting in more robust models. + +

+ +Finally, questions with insufficient context cannot be definitively answered based on the image alone. They probe whether models will resort to biases or unfounded assumptions instead of acknowledging the limits of the provided information. + +In order to create these questions, humans were given images and asked to write two questions and corresponding answers for each. First, they were tasked with writing a question that asks "something about a visual element related to the image which is not possible to answer by looking at the image." These questions were later analyzed and split into the false premises and insufficient context categories mentioned above. Second, the crowdworkers were asked to write a question "about a subtle detail presented in the image which we are able to easily provide a clear answer and the answer does not vary upon personal preferences or opinions." More details on crowdworker instructions are in Appendix B, and a breakdown of these question categories is in Table 2. + +To generate additional question-answer pairs efficiently, LLMs are also used. Specifically, the IdealGPT framework, which leverages GPT-4 and BLIP2, is used to produce long and potentially noisy image captions, as in Figure 2 [1,22,58,64]. These descriptions are later converted to several atomic statements ("The image is a close-up of a golden retriever", "The dog is holding newspaper pages on its + +Table 2: Summary of HaloQuest data splits.

+ +back as a cape"), and human annotators evaluate the validity (yes/no) of each statement. The LLMs then take each atomic statement and whether it is true or false and use this information to produce a question-answer pair for the given image. + +# 3.3 Filtering and Refining the Data Examples + +The quality of annotated question-answer pairs is next improved through filtering. First, high-performing VQA models generate preliminary responses for an initial question pool. Then, experienced human annotators review both the questions and model-generated responses. Questions judged to be too easy are discarded or revised to increase difficulty. Ambiguous or nonsensical answers are flagged, ensuring each question has a clear and well-defined solution. This process leads to a dataset composed of challenging, high-quality examples. + +# 3.4 Automatic VQA Evaluation + +In order to facilitate free-form and open-ended VLM hallucination evaluation at scale, an LLM-based automatic evaluation method is developed. While in principle any LLM can perform such evaluation with basic prompting, this work introduces a recipe that is more effective than this baseline strategy. Specifically, a Langfun schema is developed which helps Gemini to accurately extract the main point in the model response and ground truth, and then decide whether these points are in agreement [38,41]. + +Figure 7 in Appendix C shows the prompt and schema given to Gemini to implement automatic evaluation, and Figure 8 in Appendix C shows an example Auto-Eval response. As shown in these figures, Gemini is tasked with populating the PredictionEvaluation class attributes given the input question, response, and ground truth. Experiments in the next section show that this approach is substantially more effective than basic prompting alone, and thus can serve as + +inspiration for automatic evaluation in other domains in the future. Appendix C contains additional Auto-Eval implementation details. + +# 4 Experiments + +This section includes experiments that demonstrate the usefulness of HaloQuest in understanding, measuring, and reducing hallucination tendencies in VLMs. The results show that current models perform poorly on HaloQuest in a zero-shot setting, showing that much work remains to be done to build models that are hallucination-free. Furthermore, current evaluation metrics do not accurately quantify hallucination, a missing capability that the Auto-Eval framework directly addresses. HaloQuest is also useful for reducing hallucination rates, and this training does not hurt performance on related VQA tasks. Additional experiments contrast the models' performance on generated and real images, and similarly for different question types. These results facilitate a more fine-grained understanding of model capabilities, enabling future hallucination mitigation strategies to be more targeted. Together, these findings highlight the significant step HaloQuest provides towards building more reliable and trustworthy VLMs. + +# 4.1 Zero-shot Evaluation on HaloQuest + +Table 3 lists zero-shot evaluation of top-performing VLMs on HaloQuest and reveals two key insights. First, existing VLMs struggle with HaloQuest, exhibiting high hallucination rates. This result indicates substantial shortcomings in model capabilities and highlights the need for robust hallucination mitigation. Second, increased model size doesn't necessarily translate to better hallucination resistance. Surprisingly, BEiT-3 [53], a smaller model, outperforms several larger models. These findings underscore the importance of developing data-driven hallucination mitigation strategies that are not solely reliant on model scaling. + +# 4.2 Quantifying Hallucination with Auto-Eval + +Before VLM hallucination can be addressed, it must be accurately measured. Figure 3 compares modern metrics like BLEU, CIDER, ROUGE, and METEOR with human evaluation on the HaloQuest evaluation set [6, 25, 36, 48]. None of the metrics correlate well with human evaluation, demonstrating they are insufficient for measuring hallucination. Fortunately, Auto-Eval (Section 3.4) correlates strongly with human evaluation. While all experiments in this paper include both human evaluation and Auto-Eval scores, this result suggests that Auto-Eval can be used in the future if human evaluation is unavailable or is too expensive. + +Table 4 shows an ablation comparing different Auto-Eval implementations.

Importantly, adding HaloQuest training data does not degrade performance on VQA v2, and in most cases helps.

Indeed, while the synthetic images in HaloQuest are not as difficult on average as the real images, advancements in image generation models will likely close this gap in the near future.

+ +research in dataset curation, controlled image generation, and annotator bias mitigation. + +# 4.5 Understanding Hallucination Triggers + +VLMs hallucinate for various reasons. This work explores triggering hallucination with questions with false premises, visually challenging questions, and questions with insufficient context. Table 8 shows model performance broken down according to these image categories. On average, open-source models struggle substantially with false premise and insufficient context questions, but perform slightly better with visually challenging ones. Interestingly, different models have different strengths and weaknesses in different question categories. GPT-4 is more adept at addressing false premise and insufficient context questions, but is not as performant in the visually challenging section. This finding demonstrates + +Table 8: Zero-shot and trained model performance on HaloQuest broken down by question type. The data in this table is from the same experiments as Table 3 and 5. Breaking down the results in this way makes it possible to address specific model weaknesses, and training with HaloQuest improves model performance in all three categories. GPT-4, GPT-4o and Gemini 1.5 Pro are only tested on the subset of images without people. + +

+ +how understanding fine-grained hallucination triggers allows for targeting model-specific capabilities. Training on HaloQuest substantially improves performance in all categories, but the models still perform poorly, reinforcing the need for continued work in hallucination reduction. + +# 5 Discussion and Future Work + +Appendix A examines the impact of our work and its potential to shape future research directions in the field. It discusses the semantic novelty of synthetic images, comprehensive solutions to hallucination, multimodal hallucination, nuanced responses with Auto-Eval, and broader societal implications. + +# 6 Conclusion + +This work has introduced HaloQuest, a novel VQA benchmark that leverages both real-world and synthetically generated images. HaloQuest's controlled image generation and questions designed to elicit specific hallucination types enable a more targeted analysis of hallucination triggers in VLMs. Experiments + +demonstrate that current state-of-the-art models struggle with HaloQuest, revealing a crucial disconnect between their capabilities and real-world reliability requirements. Importantly, fine-tuning VLMs on HaloQuest demonstrably reduces hallucination rates while maintaining performance on typical reasoning tasks. + +HaloQuest highlights the potential of synthetic images in the development of robust multimodal AI. It addresses limitations present in traditional datasets, enabling the creation of richer and more varied visual scenarios. The dataset, coupled with an innovative machine-human-in-the-loop generation process, facilitates targeted investigation into VLM weaknesses. + +Further, this work introduces an LLM-based Auto-Eval mechanism that facilitates open-ended and nuanced evaluation of VLM responses. This approach is a marked improvement over existing methods that often limit the model's expressive ability or are impractical for evaluating complex hallucinations. + +HaloQuest stands as a valuable resource for the vision-and-language community. It provides both a challenging evaluation benchmark and a training dataset aimed at mitigating hallucination in VLMs. This work underscores the power of synthetic image generation and advanced evaluation techniques in driving the creation of more reliable and trustworthy multimodal AI systems. + +# Acknowledgements + +The authors would like to thank Kai-wei Chang, Shih-fu Chang, Junzhang Liu, Haoxuan You, Rui Sun and Chris Thomas for invaluable discussions.

Hallucination has been a major problem for large language models and remains a critical challenge when it comes to multimodality in which vision-language models (VLMs) have to deal with not just textual but also visual inputs. Despite rapid progress in VLMs, resources for evaluating and addressing multimodal hallucination are limited and mostly focused on evaluation. This work introduces HaloQuest, a novel visual question answering dataset that captures various aspects of multimodal hallucination such as false premises, insufficient contexts, and visual challenges. A novel idea from HaloQuest is to leverage synthetic images, apart from real ones, to enable dataset creation at scale.

The extraction of keypoint positions from input hand frames, known as 3D hand pose estimation, is crucial for various human-computer interaction applications. However, current approaches often struggle with the dynamic nature of self-occlusion of hands and intra-occlusion with interacting objects. To address this challenge, this paper proposes the Denoising Adaptive Graph Transformer, HandDAGT, for hand pose estimation. The proposed HandDAGT leverages a transformer structure to thoroughly explore effective geometric features from input patches. Additionally, it incorporates a novel attention mechanism to adaptively weigh the contribution of kinematic correspondence and local geometric features for the estimation of specific keypoints. This attribute enables the model to adaptively employ kinematic and local information based on the occlusion situation, enhancing its robustness and accuracy. Furthermore, we introduce a novel denoising training strategy aimed at improving the model's robust performance in the face of occlusion challenges.

The extraction of keypoint positions from input hand frames, known as 3D hand pose estimation, is crucial for various human-computer interaction applications. However, current approaches often struggle with the dynamic nature of self-occlusion of hands and intra-occlusion with interacting objects. To address this challenge, this paper proposes the Denoising Adaptive Graph Transformer, HandDAGT, for hand pose estimation. The proposed HandDAGT leverages a transformer structure to thoroughly explore effective geometric features from input patches. Additionally, it incorporates a novel attention mechanism to adaptively weigh the contribution of kinematic correspondence and local geometric features for the estimation of specific keypoints. This attribute enables the model to adaptively employ kinematic and local information based on the occlusion situation, enhancing its robustness and accuracy. Furthermore, we introduce a novel denoising training strategy aimed at improving the model's robust performance in the face of occlusion challenges.

The extraction of keypoint positions from input hand frames, known as 3D hand pose estimation, is crucial for various human-computer interaction applications. However, current approaches often struggle with the dynamic nature of self-occlusion of hands and intra-occlusion with interacting objects. To address this challenge, this paper proposes the Denoising Adaptive Graph Transformer, HandDAGT, for hand pose estimation. The proposed HandDAGT leverages a transformer structure to thoroughly explore effective geometric features from input patches. Additionally, it incorporates a novel attention mechanism to adaptively weigh the contribution of kinematic correspondence and local geometric features for the estimation of specific keypoints. This attribute enables the model to adaptively employ kinematic and local information based on the occlusion situation, enhancing its robustness and accuracy. Furthermore, we introduce a novel denoising training strategy aimed at improving the model's robust performance in the face of occlusion challenges. Experimental results show that the proposed model significantly outperforms the existing methods on four challenging hand pose benchmark datasets. Codes and pre-trained models are publicly available at https://github.com/cwc1260/HandDAGT. + +Keywords: Hand pose estimation $\cdot$ Point cloud $\cdot$ Transformer + +# 1 Introduction + +3D hand pose estimation has emerged as a pivotal element in various human-computer interaction systems, providing essential keypoints for human hands. Accurate localization of hand keypoints enables precise understanding and effective analysis of human motion and behavior. With the advancements in deep learning techniques and the proliferation of low-cost depth cameras, significant progress has been made in depth image-based 3D hand pose estimation. + +Early deep learning-based methods showcased the efficacy of conventional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in hand pose estimation tasks [4, 10, 11, 14, 17, 36, 38, 41]. Subsequently, CNN architectures leveraging different modalities, + +![](images/7de2bd7113627f783820af498be0f67cff941148b7ff6637bc9cadc3ce7793db.jpg) +Fig. 1: Illustration of the HandDAGT concept. The model feeds 3D local patches cropped from input depth images and corresponding point clouds to the adaptive graph transformer for the keypoint coordinate estimation. The local patches are disturbed by the random Gaussian noise during training for a robust performance. + +such as point clouds [6,8,13,16], voxelized representations [15,31], or multi-modal combination [35], have been extensively explored. Beyond CNN, the transformer-based approaches [21,45] also showed the feasibility in the hand pose estimation field. Despite the notable successes achieved by these approaches, achieving accurate estimation remains challenging in scenarios such as self-occlusion and hand-object occlusion. Recent studies [6,35,45], have endeavored to introduce a static graph structure to capture kinematic correspondence between keypoints, enabling the reconstruction of occluded keypoints using corresponding keypoints' information. However, static graph structures fall short of capturing the dynamics of various occlusions. + +To address these challenges, we propose a novel denoising adaptive graph transformer, named HandDAGT, to adaptively weigh local detail and kinematic correspondence for accurate hand pose estimation across various occlusion conditions. The proposed transformer can learn precise local geometric information of the hand as the traditional local transformers [12,46,49]. Importantly, the transformer is meticulously designed to calculate the geometric feature and kinematic topology information directly in the 3D keypoint space. This design is made to circumvent 2D-to-3D non-linearity that arises when operating in 2D space [6]. Moreover, for accurate estimation, it integrates a novel adaptive attention module that adaptively activates local geometric information or information from kinematically corresponding keypoints depending on whether keypoints are well-presented or occluded. Furthermore, to enhance the robustness and accuracy of estimation under occlusion, we introduce a novel denoising training strategy as it compels the model to correct estimations even with disturbed patches. + +We evaluate HandDAGT on four challenging benchmarks, including single-hand ICVL [40] and NYU [41] dataset, and hand-object DexYCB [2] and HO3D [18] datasets. The results show that our network achieves the state-of-the-art performance with the lowest mean distance errors of $5.66\mathrm{mm}$ and $7.12\mathrm{mm}$ on the single-hand ICVL and NYU datasets, respectively. The model also achieves state-of-the-art performance on the hand-object DexYCB and HO3D datasets with the lowest error of $8.03\mathrm{mm}$ and $1.81\mathrm{cm}$ , respectively. + +Our main contributions are summarised as follows: + +- We propose a novel transformer-based architecture, HandDAGT, for accurate 3D hand pose estimation that utilizes the depth image and point cloud as a multi-modal input. +- We propose a novel adaptive attention module designed to weigh the local geometric information and kinematically evolved keypoint feature for high reliability to occlusions. +- We introduce a novel denoising training strategy for hand pose estimation to improve robustness and accuracy. +- We perform comprehensive experiments on big and challenging benchmarks that present the new state-of-the-art performance of our proposed method. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 3D Hand Pose Estimation Based on Depth Image. + +In the realm of 3D hand pose estimation utilizing depth images, traditional 2D CNN-based approaches [4,10,11,14,17,36,38,41] have garnered widespread adoption due to their straightforward implementation. However, they are encumbered by inherent limitations such as the inability to fully discern the intricacies of the 3D structure and their reliance on the camera's perspective. + +To surmount these constraints, 3D CNN-based methodologies [15, 31] were introduced, employing 3D voxelized representations of depth images to encapsulate volumetric data. Despite their advancements in 3D hand pose estimation, these techniques demand substantial memory and computational resources, thus curtailing their practical applicability. + +In contrast, PointNet-based strategies [5, 8, 13, 16, 24] analyze point clouds, offering a precise depiction of the 3D structure. PointNet, a deep learning framework adept at handling irregular and unstructured point clouds, was initially employed for hand pose estimation in HandPointNet [13]. Subsequent enhancements include the Point-to-Point model [16] and SHPR-Net [5], which refine performance by generating point-wise probability distributions. Notably, SHPR-Net [5] amalgamated HandPointNet with an auxiliary semantic segmentation subnetwork to augment performance. Recently, HandFoldingNet [8] introduced a folding concept to reshape a pre-defined 2D hand skeleton into hand poses, thereby enhancing estimation accuracy. Subsequently, HandR2N2 [6] proposed a folding-based recurrent structure to iteratively optimize the keypoint positions by searching local point regions. However, a notable drawback of point clouds is the computational overhead of querying neighbors from a dense point set for convolution. Therefore, the existing methods commonly use a sparse point cloud, which restricts the performance. + +In order to bridge the shortcomings of images and point clouds, IPNet [35] suggests the utilization of multi-modal representations, combining 2D depth images and 3D point clouds. By doing so, the model adeptly extracts dense detail information while effectively capturing 3D spatial features, thereby facilitating accurate 3D hand pose estimation. + +Essentially, the above-mentioned methods are all CNN-induced methods but with different input modalities. In contrast, our method introduces a novel adaptive graph transformer architecture for precise local information extraction and dynamic kinematics with the power of the transformer. + +# 2.2 Transformers in Hand Pose Estimation + +With the development of the attention mechanism and the introduction of the transformer model [43], various domains within image processing have increasingly embraced its application, such as image classification [9, 28] and object detection [1, 50]. Given the transformer model's ability to capture non-local features, which proves beneficial for hand pose estimation, numerous studies [19, 21, 23, 25, 26, 45] have endeavored to integrate it into hand pose estimation domain. As a closely related work to ours, Hand-Transformer [21] introduces a non-autoregressive transformer to concurrently estimate keypoint positions. Nevertheless, this approach of independent keypoint estimation overlooks the intrinsic kinematics shared among keypoints. Consequently, HandGCNFormer [45] integrates graph convolutional networks (GCNs) as its core to explicitly model the kinematics among keypoints, thereby enhancing performance. However, its static graph is not able to capture dynamic kinematic correspondence between keypoints under complex occlusion scenarios. In contrast, the proposed HandDAGT is able to dynamically weigh between kinematic correspondence and local detail according to the occlusion situation. + +# 3 Method + +The HandDAGT architecture is presented in Figure 2. HandDAGT first samples a super point set with fused features from both image and point cloud, thus it can generate strong keypoint embeddings and informative local patches. The embeddings and patches are further fed as queries and keys to our key component, the adaptive graph transformer. The transformer implements a novel attention mechanism that adaptively weighs queries and keys for the accurate keypoint coordinate estimation. + +# 3.1 Super Points Generation + +Following the previous work IPNet [35], HandDAGT accepts the multimodal inputs, which are a hand depth image $\mathbf{D}_{in} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W}$ and a set of randomly sampled 3D point coordinates $\mathbf{P}_{in} \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times 3}$ . The outputs from HandDAGT are 3D keypoint coordinates $\mathbf{J} \in \mathbb{R}^{J \times 3}$ . Since the input point set is irregular and orderless, we exploit the point set convolutional layer [27, 34] as a local 3D encoder to extract a subsampled 3D super point set $\mathbf{P}' \in \mathbb{R}^{N/2 \times 3}$ with corresponding 3D local geometric features $\mathbf{F}_{3d} \in \mathbb{R}^{N/2 \times d_{3d}}$ . The depth image is supplied into a ConvNeXt-based autoencoder to generate a 2D local visual feature map $\mathbf{F}_{2d} \in \mathbb{R}^{H/2 \times W/2 \times d_{2d}}$ . Subsequently, the 2D local visual features are projected as + +![](images/798f874b6214e245df6f02730d33f9a6fd31311e4976717a10c753d68de8a4cb.jpg) +(a) Patch & Embedding Initialization +(b) Adaptive Graph Transformer +Fig. 2: The HandDAGT architecture. HandDAGT takes a 2D depth image and the sub-sampled point cloud as the input. The PointNet-based local 3D encoder and the 2D auto-encoder extracts local 3D features and local 2D features, respectively. Then, the 2D features are projected into 3D space to fuse with 3D features forming the super point features F. Based on the super points, keypoint embeddings E and 3D patches are extracted as input to the novel adaptive graph transformer to estimate accurate 3D keypoint coordinates by leveraging the dynamic kinematic correspondences and local details. Notably, during the training stage, the local 3D patches are shifted by random noises in order to enforce the model providing robust estimations. + +3D point features $\mathbf{F}_{2d - 3d} \in \mathbb{R}^{N / 2 \times d_{2d}}$ through the 2D-3D projection technique proposed by IPNet [35]. Afterward, the projected features are concatenated to the super points as $\mathbf{F} \in \mathbb{R}^{N / 2 \times (d_{2d} + d_{3d})}$ . Then the super points are further fed into the initialization module to generate initial keypoint embeddings and patch positions for the transformer. + +# 3.2 Initialization of Keypoint Embedding and Patch Position + +In our HandDAGT framework, the keypoint embeddings play a critical role in capturing the kinematic topology between keypoints. To achieve this, we draw upon the concept of joint-wise embeddings initially proposed by HandFoldingNet [8] to obtain the initial keypoint embeddings. + +The keypoint embedding initialization module begins by feeding the super points with features $\mathbf{F}$ into two point set convolutional layers to generate 3D + +global vectors. The initialization of keypoint embeddings is then sequentially conducted through a three-layer bias-induced layer (BIL) [7]. The global vector is replicated $J$ times and supplied to the BILs. This operation yields embedding for the $J$ individual keypoints. Notably, the BIL furnishes keypoint-wise independent biases, akin to learnable positional embeddings. + +After the acquisition of the keypoint embeddings, a linear transformation is applied to project the high-dimensional embeddings into the 3D space as the initial positions for collecting patches. The 3D point patches are acquired by grouping $K$ -nearest super points with their corresponding features around each patch position. + +# 3.3 Adaptive Graph Transformer Decoder + +The adaptive transformer decoder is the key component in our proposed framework as it queries the local information for accurate keypoint estimation with the assist of dynamic kinematic topology based on the keypoint embeddings, as illustrated in Figure 2. + +The keypoint embeddings are first augmented through a GCN, forming the evolved embeddings, + +$$ +\mathbf {E} ^ {\prime} = \operatorname {R e L U} (\mathbf {A E W}), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{W} \in \mathbb{R}^{d_{hid} \times d_{hid}}$ is the trainable transformation weights and $\mathbf{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{J \times J \times d_{hid}}$ is the learned kinematic correspondence matrix that models connection strength between keypoints in each channel. + +Subsequently, each super point in each patch and its corresponding feature are concatenated with the evolved keypoint embedding, forming the input to the novel attention mechanism of the proposed transformer, + +$$ +\mathbf {Q} _ {k} = M L P _ {Q} \left(\left[ \mathbf {E} ^ {\prime}, \mathbf {F} _ {k} \right]\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {K} = \operatorname {s e t} _ {1 \leq k \leq K} \operatorname {c o n v} _ {K} \left(\left[ \mathbf {E} ^ {\prime}, \mathbf {F} _ {k} \right]\right), \tag {3} +$$ + +$$ +[ \mathbf {A t t} _ {\mathbf {k}} ^ {\text {l o c a l}}, \mathbf {A t t} _ {\mathbf {k}} ^ {\mathbf {g}} ] = \sigma (\mathbf {Q} _ {k} \odot \mathbf {K}), \tag {4} +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {V} _ {k} = M L P _ {V} \left(\left[ \mathbf {E} ^ {\prime} \odot \mathbf {A t t} _ {\mathbf {k}} ^ {\mathbf {g}}, \mathbf {F} _ {k} \odot \mathbf {A t t} _ {\mathbf {k}} ^ {\text {l o c a l}} \right]\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +where $MLP$ is the multi-layer perceptron, set\_conv is the point set convolutional layer, $\sigma$ is the sigmoid activation function, $[\cdot, \cdot]$ is the concatenation operation, and $\odot$ is the Hadamard product. We notice that the semantic difference between local points and keypoint embeddings affects the effectiveness of attention, we enhance the queries (local points) $\mathbf{Q}$ with the evolved keypoint embedding while the keys (keypoint embeddings) $\mathbf{K}$ are fused with the local observation. Furthermore, unlike conventional attention that commonly utilizes dot product with softmax, our attention score is obtained by the Hadamard product with a sigmoid as the activation as shown in Equation 4. Moreover, + +due to the channel-wise multiplication of the Hadamard product, the proposed attention mechanism can be regarded as inherently employing the multi-head attention with the same number of attention heads as the channel depth. It is worth mentioning that the attention produces two individual scores for the local points and graph-evolved key embeddings. With these two scores, the proposed transformer is able to adaptively focus more on kinematic topology or local information of the keypoints depending on whether the keypoints are occluded or well-represented by the local points. + +Following the standard attention block, a residual mechanism is introduced to accumulate the computed value $\mathbf{V}$ and the input local points. Afterward, another point set convolution is applied as the feed-forward module to aggregate the computed value $\mathbf{V}$ to an updated key embedding for position regression of each keypoint, + +$$ +\widetilde {\mathbf {E}} = \operatorname {s e t} _ {1 \leq k \leq K} \operatorname {c o n v} _ {F} \left(\mathbf {V} _ {\mathbf {k}} + \mathbf {F} _ {\mathbf {k}}\right) + \underset {1 \leq k \leq K} {\operatorname {M A X}} _ {F} \left(\mathbf {V} _ {\mathbf {k}} + \mathbf {F} _ {\mathbf {k}}\right), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $MAX_{F}$ indicates the max-pooling operation for pursuing the residual accumulation. At the end, a trainable linear transformation is followed to project the updated keypoint embeddings to the 3D keypoint coordinates. + +For an improved estimation performance, the proposed transformer is stacked multiple times to progressively optimize the keypoint position. The regressed positions from the previous transformers are used for grouping new patches as the input to the subsequent transformer stacks. The optimal number of stacked transformers will be discussed in Section 4.4. + +# 3.4 Denosing Training and Inference + +To improve the accuracy and robustness of the model against noise and occlusion, we propose a novel denoising training strategy. The initial patch positions are firstly disturbed by the introduced random noise. The noise variances during training are controlled by the same linear scheduler as in recent diffusion models [3, 20]. However, in contrast to the diffusion models that introduce noise in both the training and inference phases, our method only introduces noise in the training stage. Thus, the training criterion in our method is formally defined as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \sum L 1 _ {\text {s m o o t h}} \left(\mathbf {D} _ {T _ {1}} \left(\mathbf {J} _ {0} + \mathcal {N}\right) - \mathbf {J} ^ {*}\right) + \sum_ {2} ^ {S} \sum L 1 _ {\text {s m o o t h}} \left(\mathbf {D} _ {T _ {s}} \left(\mathbf {J} _ {s - 1}\right) - \mathbf {J} ^ {*}\right), \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{N}$ is the injected noise, $S$ denotes the number of stacked denosing transformers $\mathbf{D}_{T_s}$ , and $\mathbf{J}_s$ is the output from the s-th denosing transformer $\mathbf{D}_{T_s}(\mathbf{J}_{s-1})$ . Note that, the noise is only injected in the input of the first denosing transformer. Following the previous works [8,38], we adopt the smooth L1 loss because of its less sensitivity to the outliers. The smooth L1 loss is defined as: + +$$ +L 1 _ {\text {s m o o t h}} (\mathbf {x}) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} 5 0 \mathbf {x} ^ {2}, & | \mathbf {x} | < 0. 0 1 \\ | \mathbf {x} | - 0. 0 0 5, & \text {o t h e r w i s e} \end{array} . \right. \tag {8} +$$ + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Experiment Settings + +In our experiments, we utilized an NVIDIA A100 GPU with PyTorch for training and evaluating the model. We employed the AdamW optimizer [29] with parameters set to $\beta_{\mathrm{a}} = 0.5$ , $\beta_{\mathrm{a}} = 0.999$ , and a learning rate $\alpha = 0.001$ . The input images were resized to 128, and the number of input points to the network was sampled to 1,024. We set the batch size to 32. To mitigate overfitting, we employed online data augmentation techniques, including random rotation (in the range of [-180.0, 180.0] degrees), 3D scaling (within the range of [0.9, 1.1]), and 3D translation (within the range of [-10, 10] mm). For training on the hand-object datasets, we conducted training for 30 epochs with a learning rate decay of 0.1 after every 10 epochs. In the case of training on the single-hand dataset, we extended the training duration to 50 epochs with a similar learning rate decay strategy, applying the decay after 30 epochs. + +# 4.2 Datasets and Evaluation Metrics + +Single-hand Dataset. ICVL [40] comprises 22,000 training depth frames and 1,600 testing depth frames. Each frame includes annotations for $J = 16$ keypoints, including one keypoint for the palm and three keypoints for each finger. NYU [41] provides depth images of single hands captured from three distinct viewpoints using the PrimeSense 3D sensor. Each viewpoint comprises 72,000 frames for training and 8,000 frames for testing. In line with recent studies [8, 13, 16], a single view is utilized for both training and testing purposes. Furthermore, for evaluation, 14 keypoints out of a total of 36 annotated keypoints are selected, maintaining consistency with prior works. + +Hand-object Dataset. DexYCB [2] is a recently released hand-object dataset, comprising 582,000 image frames annotated with 21 keypoints. It incorporates data from 10 distinct subjects interacting with 20 YCB objects across 8 camera views. Notably, the dataset defined four official split protocols: S0 - seen subjects, camera views, grasped objects; S1 - unseen subjects; S2 - unseen camera views; S3 - unseen grasped objects. HO3D [18] is another challenging dataset renowned for its precise hand-object pose during interactions. The widely utilized version, HO3D_v2, comprises 66,034 training images and 11,524 testing images gathered from 10 subjects engaging with 10 distinct objects. Evaluation for HO3D_v2 is typically conducted through an online submission platform dedicated to this dataset. + +Evaluation metrics. We employ two commonly used metrics, the mean keypoint error, and the success rate, to evaluate the performance of hand pose estimation. The mean keypoint error quantifies the average Euclidean distance between the estimated keypoint positions and ground-truth ones for all the keypoint over the entire testing set. The success rate indicates the percentage of good frames with a mean keypoint error of less than a given distance threshold. + +Table 1: Comparison of the proposed method with previous state-of-the-art methods on the single-hand ICVL and NYU datasets.

The results highlight that HandDAGT achieves a new state-of-the-art record with the lowest mean distance errors of $5.66\mathrm{mm}$ and $7.12\mathrm{mm}$ on the challenging ICVL and NYU datasets, respectively. Furthermore, the outcomes demonstrate that HandDAGT significantly outperforms other 2D image-based methods by substantial margins. This superiority is attributed to HandDAGT's direct processing in the 3D space, which circumvents the highly non-linear mapping problem associated with estimating from 2D images. The qualitative results illustrated in Figure 4 also show the evidence of the HandDAGT's superiority in both occluded and non-occluded cases.

Furthermore, the results from ablations 3) and 4) suggest that the enhanced $\mathbf{Q}$ and $\mathbf{K}$ contribute significantly to the model's performance, as well as the conventional attention mechanism. (Ablations 5) and 6) demonstrate that both $\mathbf{Att}_{\mathbf{k}}^{\mathrm{local}}$ and $\mathbf{Att}_{\mathbf{k}}^{\mathbf{g}}$ positively impact the model's performance, indicating that attention mechanisms focused on local points and kinematic topology are beneficial additions to the model architecture. We also visualize the qualitative results of the ablations in Figure 6. The qualitative results indicate that attention solely on local points can yield better performance in non-occluded cases, as illustrated in the left of Figure 6. This is attributed to the sufficient local details. Conversely, attention solely on kinematic topology demonstrates strong performance in occluded cases, as depicted in the right of Figure 6. Our full implementation surpasses all ablations by leveraging both mechanisms, thereby achieving superior performance. + +Effectiveness of the denoising training strategy. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed denoising training strategy, we train a model without noise disturbing during training. As reported in Table 5a, the performance is boosted with $0.08 \mathrm{~mm}$ of error reduction. Notably, this performance improvement does not require any additional computations, since these two models share the equivalent inference process but vary with different training strategies. + +Number of stacked transformers. Intuitively, deeper stacks of transformers have the potential to enhance performance by allowing the model to capture more intricate features. To explore this, we incrementally increased the number of stacked transformers to search for the optimal depth of the transformer stack. As outlined in Table 5b, we systematically varied the depth of the stack to evaluate its impact on model performance. Based on the results, it is evident that increasing the depth of the transformer stack generally leads to performance + +improvements. However, the model with a 3-stack transformer exhibits only marginal enhancements. Therefore, we conclude that the optimal stack number for our model is 3, and further increasing the depth of the transformer stack does not yield significant performance gains. + +Size of input patches. Indeed, the size of patches significantly influences the receptive field for the transformer, ultimately impacting the model's ability to capture detailed information. To investigate this effect, we conducted a series of ablation experiments wherein the models were trained using different patch sizes for estimation. Since the patches consist of super points, thus the size of the patch is the number of super points contained in a patch. As depicted in Table 5c, the patch containing 64 super points exhibited optimal performance, whereas the experiment with patch sizes larger than 64 points showed degraded performance. This observation suggests that the receptive field of the transformer must be adequately sized to gather effective information. However, introducing a redundant patch size could lead to the inclusion of unnecessary information, thus disrupting the transformer's operation. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we introduced HandDAGT, a novel adaptive graph transformer architecture designed to adaptively utilize local information and kinematic topology based on the occlusion circumstances. To improve the robustness of the proposed network, a novel denoising training strategy is introduced. Experimental results showcased that our network outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on four challenging datasets. Moreover, extensive experiments validated the effectiveness of the components proposed in this paper. As a limitation, HandDAGT currently can not process the scenario with interacting hands and requires redundant computation due to the 2D feature extraction. Addressing these limitations could involve extending our research to include bidirectional learning and developing a lightweight 2D model. These avenues remain open for future research and represent potential areas for enhancing the capabilities and efficiency of HandDAGT. + +# Acknowledgement + +This work was supported by the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) of Korea under the National Research Foundation (NRF) grant (2022R1A4A3032913) and the Institute of Information and Communication Technology Planning Evaluation (IITP) grants (IITP-2019-0-00421, IITP-2023-2020-0-01821, IITP-2021-0-02052, IITP-2021-0-02068), and by the Technology Innovation Program (RS-2023-00235718) funded by the Ministry of Trade, Industry & Energy (1415187474).

The extraction of keypoint positions from input hand frames, known as 3D hand pose estimation, is crucial for various human-computer interaction applications. However, current approaches often struggle with the dynamic nature of self-occlusion of hands and intra-occlusion with interacting objects. To address this challenge, this paper proposes the Denoising Adaptive Graph Transformer, HandDAGT, for hand pose estimation. The proposed HandDAGT leverages a transformer structure to thoroughly explore effective geometric features from input patches. Additionally, it incorporates a novel attention mechanism to adaptively weigh the contribution of kinematic correspondence and local geometric features for the estimation of specific keypoints. This attribute enables the model to adaptively employ kinematic and local information based on the occlusion situation, enhancing its robustness and accuracy. Furthermore, we introduce a novel denoising training strategy aimed at improving the model's robust performance in the face of occlusion challenges. Experimental results show that the proposed model significantly outperforms the existing methods on four challenging hand pose benchmark datasets.

Subsequently, HandR2N2 [6] proposed a folding-based recurrent structure to iteratively optimize the keypoint positions by searching local point regions.

Consequently, HandGCNFormer [45] integrates graph convolutional networks (GCNs) as its core to explicitly model the kinematics among keypoints, thereby enhancing performance.

As depicted in Table 5c, the patch containing 64 super points exhibited optimal performance, whereas the experiment with patch sizes larger than 64 points showed degraded performance.

Predicting camera-space hand meshes from single RGB images is crucial for enabling realistic hand interactions in 3D virtual and augmented worlds. Previous work typically divided the task into two stages: given a cropped image of the hand, predict meshes in relative coordinates, followed by lifting these predictions into camera space in a separate and independent stage, often resulting in the loss of valuable contextual and scale information. To prevent the loss of these cues, we propose unifying these two stages into an end-to-end solution that addresses the 2D-3D correspondence problem. This solution enables backpropagation from camera space outputs to the rest of the network through a new differentiable global positioning module. We also introduce an image rectification step that harmonizes both the training dataset and the input image as if they were acquired with the same camera, helping to alleviate the inherent scale-depth ambiguity of the problem.

Most previous works in monocular RGB-based camera-space 3D hand mesh and pose estimation follow a two-stage approach: (1) a first stage for predicting hand mesh/pose in root-relative coordinates, and (2) a lifting stage to recover camera-space coordinates from root-relative ones. For monocular 3D hand pose estimation, Iqbal et al. [28] predicts in 2.5D root-relative space, and then lifts those predictions to 3D camera space predictions using an analytical solution. This result is up to a scaling factor, however, and to resolve the scale ambiguity an extra scale parameter is required, which is assumed to be provided [48] or globally estimated from data. I2L-MeshNet [40] proposes a regression approach to recover root-relative 2.5D meshes and subsequently lifts them to camera-space using a separate network RootNet [39] which uses prior anthropometric knowledge to reduce scale ambiguity [34]. NFV [26] proposes a neural voting approach with a 3D implicit function that directly regresses 3D hand poses in camera-space from full images. NFV uses a Marching Cubes post processing to predict meshes, which degrades efficiency and is at the cost of not having semantic mappings for their predicted vertices, which are crucial for some applications. Hasson et al. [24] predicts both object and hand camera-space translations using both hand and object cues, but makes assumptions on the geometry of the object which facilitate the scale recovery. Closest to our work, CMR [15], MobRecon [14] and HandOccNet [41] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, while 3D camera-space coordinates are obtained with a test-time registration function that estimates the root position.

Different methods have been proposed for RGB-based monocular hand mesh reconstruction, with various hand output representations, such as parametric models, voxels, vertices, implicit functions or UV maps [13]. Parametric models [4,5,8,10,15,17,21,25,53] typically regress hand shape and pose coefficients of the MANO parametric hand model [46]. These methods are intrinsically limited by the expressiveness of the model used. Model-free methods circumvent these limitations by working on high dimensional representations. This can be true in voxel-based methods, such as I2L-MeshNet [40], which represents volumetric hand data in a 2.5D manner at the cost of efficiency. Also typically constrained by efficiency but at the benefit of high resolution are implicit function methods [26,30,31], which inherit from the trend started by human body digitization [6,26,38,43,47]. Vertex-based methods [14, 15,19,32,35,36,41] aim to directly predict 3D vertex coordinates. In this work we build upon MobRecon's framework [14] by adopting their pipeline: predicting 2D keypoints following an encoder-decoder approach then leveraging those keypoints to grid-sample features that are lifted to root-relative 3D by a graph neural decoder.

We hypothesize that the primary reason for this degradation is that rectifying training images de facto reduces the amount of data augmentations that the network encounters during training, affecting the prediction of both 2D keypoints and 3D mesh geometry.

Predicting camera-space hand meshes from single RGB images is crucial for enabling realistic hand interactions in 3D virtual and augmented worlds. Previous work typically divided the task into two stages: given a cropped image of the hand, predict meshes in relative coordinates, followed by lifting these predictions into camera space in a separate and independent stage, often resulting in the loss of valuable contextual and scale information. To prevent the loss of these cues, we propose unifying these two stages into an end-to-end solution that addresses the 2D-3D correspondence problem. This solution enables backpropagation from camera space outputs to the rest of the network through a new differentiable global positioning module. We also introduce an image rectification step that harmonizes both the training dataset and the input image as if they were acquired with the same camera, helping to alleviate the inherent scale-depth ambiguity of the problem.

With a similar relative representation, Moon et al. [40] and Tang et al. [49] predict camera-space coordinates with the aid of an independent network known as RootNet [39]. Exploiting 2D-to-3D correspondences, CMR [15] and MobRecon [14] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, and then find the 3D rigid transformation that best explains the mesh projection via an independent test-time optimization process. Similarly, HandOccNet [41] also uses a test-time optimization to predict scale and root translation by minimizing a 2D projection loss.

DGP enables the backpropagation of gradients directly from camera space outputs to the 2D-3D correspondences defined by the 2D keypoint predictions and the root-relative 3D hand meshes. Thanks to being differentiable, DGP could potentially also be included in the learning of any hand mesh prediction neural network that predicts 2D hand keypoints and root-relative 3D hand meshes such as CMR [15] and MobRecon [14].

Most previous works in monocular RGB-based camera-space 3D hand mesh and pose estimation follow a two-stage approach: (1) a first stage for predicting hand mesh/pose in root-relative coordinates, and (2) a lifting stage to recover camera-space coordinates from root-relative ones. For monocular 3D hand pose estimation, Iqbal et al. [28] predicts in 2.5D root-relative space, and then lifts those predictions to 3D camera space predictions using an analytical solution. This result is up to a scaling factor, however, and to resolve the scale ambiguity an extra scale parameter is required, which is assumed to be provided [48] or globally estimated from data. I2L-MeshNet [40] proposes a regression approach to recover root-relative 2.5D meshes and subsequently lifts them to camera-space using a separate network RootNet [39] which uses prior anthropometric knowledge to reduce scale ambiguity [34]. NFV [26] proposes a neural voting approach with a 3D implicit function that directly regresses 3D hand poses in camera-space from full images. NFV uses a Marching Cubes post processing to predict meshes, which degrades efficiency and is at the cost of not having semantic mappings for their predicted vertices, which are crucial for some applications. Hasson et al. [24] predicts both object and hand camera-space translations using both hand and object cues, but makes assumptions on the geometry of the object which facilitate the scale recovery. Closest to our work, CMR [15], MobRecon [14] and HandOccNet [41] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, while 3D camera-space coordinates are obtained with a test-time registration function that estimates the root position.

Different methods have been proposed for RGB-based monocular hand mesh reconstruction, with various hand output representations, such as parametric models, voxels, vertices, implicit functions or UV maps [13]. Parametric models [4,5,8,10,15,17,21,25,53] typically regress hand shape and pose coefficients of the MANO parametric hand model [46]. These methods are intrinsically limited by the expressiveness of the model used. Model-free methods circumvent these limitations by working on high dimensional representations. This can be true in voxel-based methods, such as I2L-MeshNet [40], which represents volumetric hand data in a 2.5D manner at the cost of efficiency. Also typically constrained by efficiency but at the benefit of high resolution are implicit function methods [26,30,31], which inherit from the trend started by human body digitization [6,26,38,43,47]. Vertex-based methods [14, 15,19,32,35,36,41] aim to directly predict 3D vertex coordinates. In this work we build upon MobRecon's framework [14] by adopting their pipeline: predicting 2D keypoints following an encoder-decoder approach then leveraging those keypoints to grid-sample features that are lifted to root-relative 3D by a graph neural decoder.

Predicting camera-space hand meshes from single RGB images is crucial for enabling realistic hand interactions in 3D virtual and augmented worlds. Previous work typically divided the task into two stages: given a cropped image of the hand, predict meshes in relative coordinates, followed by lifting these predictions into camera space in a separate and independent stage, often resulting in the loss of valuable contextual and scale information. To prevent the loss of these cues, we propose unifying these two stages into an end-to-end solution that addresses the 2D-3D correspondence problem. This solution enables backpropagation from camera space outputs to the rest of the network through a new differentiable global positioning module. We also introduce an image rectification step that harmonizes both the training dataset and the input image as if they were acquired with the same camera, helping to alleviate the inherent scale-depth ambiguity of the problem. We validate the effectiveness of our framework in evaluations against several baselines and state-of-the-art approaches across three public benchmarks. + +Keywords: camera-space hand mesh estimation $\cdot$ hand and body pose shape from RGB images $\cdot$ 3D-to-2D scale ambiguity $\cdot$ differentiable solver + +# 1 Introduction + +Predicting 3D hand meshes from single-view RGB images has become an increasingly popular research area due to its potential in augmented and virtual reality applications, such as virtual try-on experiences [49], human digitization [16], gaming [22], and teleoperation [1,18]. Despite recent progress, challenges remain [3,52] due to the hand's articulated structure, self-occlusions, annotation difficulty, and 2D-to-3D scale and depth ambiguity. + +Because of these challenges, most previous work have focused on predicting quality root-relative hand meshes, i.e. 3D hand meshes in coordinates relative to a pre-defined root joint, such as the wrist [14], as opposed to predicting in the global camera space. Root-relative predictions with a camera projection model [4,8,29,54] can be sufficient in applications that end up displayed on 2D images, such as virtual try-on experiences. However, camera-space predictions are critical for interactions in 3D virtual and augmented worlds, e.g. in applications such as gaming, and office work when using mixed-reality headsets [2,37]. + +![](images/3f92d49a732196a2bacfbc1b7dd9b96febea3c84276d9354c47a75796d4a5ca6.jpg) +Fig. 1: Method overview: Through our Differentiable Global Positioning module (DGP) which predicts the root translation of the hand, our method is able to backpropagate through the root-finding operation, enabling an end-to-end solution. + +For tasks that need 3D camera-space hand meshes, the dominant approach is to take those root-relative hand meshes and then lift those predictions to the camera-space 3D coordinates in a separate, independent process. For example, Iqbal et al. [28] and Zhang et al. [55] output predictions in a relative 2.5D space and infer the global coordinates analytically up to scale. With a similar relative representation, Moon et al. [40] and Tang et al. [49] predict camera-space coordinates with the aid of an independent network known as RootNet [39]. Exploiting 2D-to-3D correspondences, CMR [15] and MobRecon [14] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, and then find the 3D rigid transformation that best explains the mesh projection via an independent test-time optimization process. Similarly, HandOccNet [41] also uses a test-time optimization to predict scale and root translation by minimizing a 2D projection loss. All these methods confine the learning stage to the relative space, yielding state-of-the-art relative meshes with high efficiency, but falling short when it comes to placing the hand in the camera space, as shown in our experiments. + +We propose to achieve the best of both worlds by simultaneously learning root-relative meshes and the 3D lifting function in an end-to-end manner. To this end, we propose a Differentiable Global Positioning (DGP) module, a modern take on the classical Direct Linear Transform algorithm [23]. DGP enables the backpropagation of gradients directly from camera space outputs to the 2D-3D correspondences defined by the 2D keypoint predictions and the root-relative 3D hand meshes. Thanks to being differentiable, DGP could potentially also be included in the learning of any hand mesh prediction neural network that predicts 2D hand keypoints and root-relative 3D hand meshes such as CMR [15] and MobRecon [14]. In our experiments, we show that allowing gradients to flow from the camera-space through the root-relative network results in better global hand mesh predictions compared to disjoint two-step approaches, e.g. using RootNet [39] or test-time optimizations, as well as an end-to-end regression + +baseline that predicts both camera-space translation and relative predictions. Further, inspired by recent metric 3D scene geometry prediction work [51], we found in our experiments that a simple image and camera parameter rectification step helps to alleviate the inherent 2D-to-3D depth and scale ambiguity problem. The core idea is to conduct all learning as though the images were captured using the same camera model, thereby reducing the ambiguity that the network must resolve. While this approach leads to improved camera-space predictions, it incurs a slight decline in performance for relative-space predictions. We thoroughly examine the impact of this rectification step on both our method and on baseline approaches. In summary, our contributions are as follows: + +- We propose HandDGP, a flexible framework that unifies the learning of both root-relative and camera-space hand meshes in an end-to-end manner. +- We identify and highlight the importance of performing image rectification in alleviating some of the 2D-to-3D depth and scale ambiguity in the camera-space hand mesh prediction problem. +- We conduct an extensive experimental evaluation of various design choices for addressing the problem of camera-space hand mesh prediction, aiming to encourage research in this direction. This area has been somewhat overlooked in previous work in favor of root-relative predictions. + +# 2 Related Work + +Camera-Space 3D Hand Mesh Prediction. Most previous works in monocular RGB-based camera-space 3D hand mesh and pose estimation follow a two-stage approach: (1) a first stage for predicting hand mesh/pose in root-relative coordinates, and (2) a lifting stage to recover camera-space coordinates from root-relative ones. For monocular 3D hand pose estimation, Iqbal et al. [28] predicts in 2.5D root-relative space, and then lifts those predictions to 3D camera space predictions using an analytical solution. This result is up to a scaling factor, however, and to resolve the scale ambiguity an extra scale parameter is required, which is assumed to be provided [48] or globally estimated from data. I2L-MeshNet [40] proposes a regression approach to recover root-relative 2.5D meshes and subsequently lifts them to camera-space using a separate network RootNet [39] which uses prior anthropometric knowledge to reduce scale ambiguity [34]. NFV [26] proposes a neural voting approach with a 3D implicit function that directly regresses 3D hand poses in camera-space from full images. NFV uses a Marching Cubes post processing to predict meshes, which degrades efficiency and is at the cost of not having semantic mappings for their predicted vertices, which are crucial for some applications. Hasson et al. [24] predicts both object and hand camera-space translations using both hand and object cues, but makes assumptions on the geometry of the object which facilitate the scale recovery. Closest to our work, CMR [15], MobRecon [14] and HandOccNet [41] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, while 3D camera-space coordinates are obtained with a test-time registration function that estimates the root position. This function typically aims to find the + +3D rigid transformation for the hand mesh that best projects into the 2D input image given correspondences between 2D hand keypoints and 3D mesh keypoints. Our method builds on top of such 2D-3D paradigm with the key difference of leveraging a differentiable registration function, enabling us to directly learn our mesh network directly in the camera-space in an end-to-end manner. We compare our work with [14, 15, 24, 26, 39-41] in Section 4.3 and find that our method outperforms these state-of-the-art methods in camera-space predictions. + +Root-Relative 3D Hand Mesh Prediction. Different methods have been proposed for RGB-based monocular hand mesh reconstruction, with various hand output representations, such as parametric models, voxels, vertices, implicit functions or UV maps [13]. Parametric models [4,5,8,10,15,17,21,25,53] typically regress hand shape and pose coefficients of the MANO parametric hand model [46]. These methods are intrinsically limited by the expressiveness of the model used. Model-free methods circumvent these limitations by working on high dimensional representations. This can be true in voxel-based methods, such as I2L-MeshNet [40], which represents volumetric hand data in a 2.5D manner at the cost of efficiency. Also typically constrained by efficiency but at the benefit of high resolution are implicit function methods [26,30,31], which inherit from the trend started by human body digitization [6,26,38,43,47]. Vertex-based methods [14, 15,19,32,35,36,41] aim to directly predict 3D vertex coordinates. In this work we build upon MobRecon's framework [14] by adopting their pipeline: predicting 2D keypoints following an encoder-decoder approach then leveraging those keypoints to grid-sample features that are lifted to root-relative 3D by a graph neural decoder. We extend this framework by instead learning in camera-space owing to our proposed differentiable global positioning function. In Section 4.1 we show that our method improves [14]'s camera-space predictions significantly. + +Differentiable Correspondence Solvers. Solving for unknown geometric quantities using 2D-2D or 2D-3D correspondences has long been a central subject in computer vision [23,44]. With the emergence of deep learning, several studies have attempted to integrate these well known geometric and algebraic solutions to deep learning pipelines [7,9,11,12,45,50]. Notable examples include (1) Chen et al. [11] which propose a differentiable perspective-n-point (PnP) solver and validate it in various problems such as pose estimation, or camera calibration, and Remelli et al. [45] that use a differentiable Direct Linear Transform (DLT) implementation to perform multi-view body pose estimation. We derive a DLT solution to the root finding problem in the context of hand-mesh inference, and show that it can be implemented differentiably and integrated to an end-to-end pipeline for camera-space hand-mesh prediction. + +![](images/6deafebb6b741077e18a8ffccac7d5509c5d296954243b980664081cc7dc0ed9.jpg) +Fig. 2: HandDGP Framework Overview. Rectified images are passed through our framework, which predicts camera-space coordinates using our proposed DGP module. + +# 3 Proposed Framework + +Overview. Shown in Figure 2, the core idea behind our approach is to exploit the geometry of the problem to integrate hand root finding in a differentiable pipeline that can predict a hand mesh directly in 3D camera-space coordinates. + +Predicting root-relative hand meshes. Starting from one RGB image $\mathbf{I} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 3}$ , we first predict a set of 2D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{2D} = \{k_i^{2D}\}_{i=1}^{N_K}$ , that can be joints or other landmarks, a set of root-relative 3D vertices $\mathbf{V}^{rel} = \{v_i^{rel}\}_{i=1}^{N_V}$ , and a set of weights $\mathbf{W} = \{w_i\}_{i=1}^{N_K}$ , that represent the confidence in the predictions of each keypoint. We then obtain $\mathbf{K}^{3D} = \{k_i^{3D}\}_{i=1}^{N_K}$ , a set of root-relative 3D keypoints on the hand model that correspond to the 2D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{2D}$ . To obtain $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ , we assume having access to a 3D keypoint regressor $\mathbf{J}_{reg}: \mathbf{V}^{rel} \to \mathbf{K}^{3D}$ . $\mathbf{J}_{reg}$ usually comes in the form of a matrix, which defines keypoints on the hand as a linear combination of mesh vertices, and is typically provided with popular mesh models such as MANO [46] for hands and SMPL [42] for full body meshes. + +Finding the hand root with HandDGP. Our key innovation is our differentiable global positioning (DGP or positioning module, for brevity), which uses the root-relative 3D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ , the 2D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{2D}$ and the weights $\mathbf{W}$ in order to predict a global translation $\mathbf{t} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ in camera-space which we can use to obtain the camera-space vertex predictions $\mathbf{V}^{cs} = \{v_i^{cs}\}_{i=1}^{N_V}$ , with + +$$ +v _ {i} ^ {c s} = v _ {i} ^ {r e l} + \mathbf {t}. \tag {1} +$$ + +The camera-space vertex predictions can finally be used to project the mesh into 2D using a pinhole camera perspective projection. This pipeline allows us to + +include the global root translation and the resulting mesh projections as part of our network training. Incorporating root prediction as part of the training this way has the benefit of avoiding the accumulation of errors that can occur when using two independent processes for root-relative predictions and root-finding. We finally note that (1) our method is agnostic to the particular method used to obtain the predictions for $\mathbf{V}^{rel}$ , $\mathbf{K}$ and $\mathbf{W}$ and (2) the task of recovering the root of the hand is equivalent to finding the hand's global translation in camera space. Therefore, we will use both terms interchangeably throughout. + +# 3.1 Differentiable Global Positioning + +At the core of our method lies the differentiable global positioning module, which takes in $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ , $\mathbf{K}^{2D}$ , $\mathbf{J}_{reg}$ , and the camera intrinsics $\Lambda$ as input, and outputs the global camera-space translation $\mathbf{t}$ in a differentiable manner. Although our full approach also considers the keypoint confidences $\mathbf{W}$ , for clarity, in this section we describe how we obtain the global translation assuming equally confident keypoints. We explain how we incorporate keypoint confidences in Section 3.2. + +To obtain the global translation $\mathbf{t} = [\tau_x, \tau_y, \tau_z]^T$ in a differentiable way, we derive a solution based on the Direct Linear Transform (DLT) [23, 44], adapted to our specific problem. Firstly, by design $\mathbf{K}^{3\mathbf{D}}$ and $\mathbf{K}^{2\mathbf{D}}$ give us a set of 2D-3D correspondences $\mathcal{M} = \{(k_i^{3D}, k_i^{2D})\}_{i=1}^{N_K}$ , with $k_i^{3D} = [x_i, y_i, z_i]^T$ and $k_i^{2D} = [u_i, v_i]^T$ . Additionally, it is important to note that the 3D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ are expressed in a frame that shares the same orientation as the camera frame, with only the global root translation missing to map root-relative keypoint coordinates to camera-space coordinates. Assuming a pinhole camera model with intrinsic parameters $\pmb{\Lambda}$ , we can express the projection equation as: + +$$ +d _ {i} \left[ \begin{array}{l} u _ {i} \\ v _ {i} \\ 1 \end{array} \right] = \boldsymbol {\Lambda} \left[ \begin{array}{c c c} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array} \middle | \begin{array}{l} \tau_ {x} \\ \tau_ {y} \\ \tau_ {z} \end{array} \right] \left[ \begin{array}{l} x _ {i} \\ y _ {i} \\ z _ {i} \\ 1 \end{array} \right], \tag {2} +$$ + +with $d_{i}$ the depth value of keypoint $i$ . Expanding and re-arranging, this gives a system of linear equations that can be written in the following form: + +$$ +\left[ \begin{array}{l l} - 1 & 0 \\ 0 & - 1 \end{array} v _ {i} ^ {\prime} \right] \left[ \begin{array}{l} \tau_ {x} \\ \tau_ {y} \\ \tau_ {z} \end{array} \right] = \left[ \begin{array}{l} x _ {i} - z _ {i} u _ {i} ^ {\prime} \\ y _ {i} - z _ {i} v _ {i} ^ {\prime} \end{array} \right], \tag {3} +$$ + +where + +$$ +\left[ \begin{array}{l} u _ {i} ^ {\prime} \\ v _ {i} ^ {\prime} \\ 1 \end{array} \right] = \boldsymbol {\Lambda} ^ {- 1} \left[ \begin{array}{l} u _ {i} \\ v _ {i} \\ 1 \end{array} \right]. \tag {4} +$$ + +Since Equation 3 is obtained considering a single keypoint correspondence, and since we have three unknowns, it is under-constrained. Using all the keypoints in + +our correspondence set, Equation 3 can be re-written as + +$$ +\left[ \begin{array}{c c c} - 1 & 0 & u _ {1} ^ {\prime} \\ 0 & - 1 & v _ {1} ^ {\prime} \\ \vdots \\ 0 & - 1 & v _ {N _ {K}} ^ {\prime} \end{array} \right] \mathbf {t} = \left[ \begin{array}{c} x _ {1} - z _ {1} u _ {1} ^ {\prime} \\ y _ {1} - z _ {1} v _ {1} ^ {\prime} \\ \vdots \\ y _ {N _ {K}} - z _ {N _ {K}} v _ {N _ {K}} ^ {\prime} \end{array} \right], \tag {5} +$$ + +which has the form $\mathbf{A}\mathbf{t} = \mathbf{B}$ . To solve for $\mathbf{t}$ , we consider the least-squares solutions $\mathbf{t}^{*} = \arg \min_{\mathbf{t}}||\mathbf{A}\mathbf{t} - \mathbf{B}||^{2}$ [44], which can be obtained in closed-form: + +$$ +\mathbf {t} ^ {*} = \left(\mathbf {A} ^ {T} \mathbf {A}\right) ^ {- 1} \mathbf {A} ^ {T} \mathbf {B}. \tag {6} +$$ + +The DGP module first uses the network outputs to build the matrices $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ , and then uses the linear least-squares solution to solve for the translation. Since all the operations involved are differentiable, we can use this translation to obtain and backpropagate through camera-space vertex predictions, fully incorporating the root-finding task in an end-to-end training pipeline. + +# 3.2 Keypoint Selection + +While the solution presented in Section 3.1 allows us to incorporate root finding into an end-to-end differentiable pipeline, it does not provide for any outlier filtering or keypoint selection mechanism that could help filter out more uncertain correspondences. This can be problematic in cases such as occlusion or self-occlusion of parts of the hand. In those instances, occluded parts would presumably result in more uncertain keypoint placements, they would be considered equally to visible keypoints when computing the global translation. To address this issue, we consider a weighted variant to our approach. Assuming each keypoint correspondence has a confidence score $w_{i}$ associated with it it - in practice obtained from our weight decoder - we first construct a weight matrix by duplicating each weight once and placing them in a diagonal matrix $\mathbf{W} = \mathrm{diag}([w_1,w_1,w_2,w_2\ldots w_{N_K},w_{N_K}])$ . Then, we consider a weighted least-squares minimisation $\mathbf{t}^{*} = \arg \min_{\mathbf{t}}||\mathbf{W}(\mathbf{At} - \mathbf{B})||^2$ , with closed-form solution: + +$$ +\mathbf {t} ^ {*} = \left(\mathbf {A} ^ {T} \mathbf {W} ^ {2} \mathbf {A}\right) ^ {- 1} \mathbf {A} ^ {T} \mathbf {W} ^ {2} \mathbf {B}. \tag {7} +$$ + +# 3.3 Input Image Rectification + +Inspired by the recent work on monocular 3D geometry estimation from Yin et al. [51], the main idea is to establish a canonical camera space and transform all the training data to that space. During inference, the image is rectified just before entering the network, and the predictions are then mapped back to the original camera space. The original set of camera parameters is defined by $\{f, u_0, v_0\}$ where $f$ represents the focal length (we assume $f_x = f_y = f$ ) and $u_0$ and $v_0$ be the principal points. We resize the input image $\mathbf{I}$ with the ratio $\omega_r = \frac{f^c}{f}$ which converts the camera parameters to $\{f^c, \omega_r u_0, \omega_r v_0\}$ . Different to [51] and + +motivated by the hand being the object of interest, we further rectify the principal point to be the center of the hand crop, resulting in the final canonical intrinsic matrix $\Lambda$ defined by $\{f^c, H/2, W/2\}$ where $f^c$ is the canonical focal length and the rectified principal point is the center of the input image. It is important to note that this does not affect the 3D geometry, thus root $\mathbf{t}$ remains unchanged. + +# 3.4 Architecture and Training Details + +Network Overview. In practice, our network first takes an image $\mathbf{I} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 3}$ as an input to a convolutional encoder to produce a feature map $\mathbf{F} \in \mathbb{R}^{H / 32 \times W / 32 \times C}$ . The feature map $\mathbf{F}$ is then input to three separate decoder heads: a 2D decoder outputting a set of $N_K$ 2D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{2D}$ , a 3D decoder outputting the root-relative vertices $\mathbf{V}^{rel}$ , and a weights decoder outputting a set of confidence weights $\mathbf{W}$ . Using $\mathbf{J}_{reg}$ , we obtain the root-relative 3D keypoints $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ , forming a set of 2D-3D correspondences $\mathcal{M} = \{(u_i, v_i, x_i, y_i, z_i)\}_{i=1}^{N_K}$ . Using $\mathcal{M}$ , we then construct the matrices $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ , and obtain $\mathbf{t}$ using Equations 6 and 7. Finally, we use $\mathbf{t}$ , $\mathbf{V}^{rel}$ and $\mathbf{K}^{3D}$ to obtain the camera-space vertices $\mathbf{V}^{cs}$ and camera-space keypoints, following Equation 1, and use all of the mentioned network outputs to construct our training losses. + +Weights decoder. While our 2D and 3D decoders follow MobRecon [14], our weights decoder is illustrated in Fig. 3. Starting from the feature map $\mathbf{F} \in \mathbb{R}^{H / 32 \times W / 32 \times C}$ , we perform a series of $1 \times 1$ convolutions to obtain a new feature map $\mathbf{F}_{\mathbf{W}} \in \mathbb{R}^{H / 32 \times W / 32 \times D}$ . We then use the 2D positions provided by $\mathbf{K}^{2D}$ in order to grid sample a set of $N_{K}$ , $D$ -dimensional features, which we concatenate in $D \times N_{K}$ dimensional latent vector $\mathbf{Z}_{\mathbf{w}}$ which is then processed through a set of dense layers with leaky ReLU activations, and the final output is processed through a sigmoid function, forcing the confidence weights to be in $[0,1]$ . + +![](images/5634c6e506ca7fe0452eb0195c50a34c885ac845ba0ec887e747bed924816bb1.jpg) +Fig. 3: Weight decoder head. + +Losses. We distinguish between two sets of losses: Relative-space losses that are applied to any outputs that precede our global positioning module, and camera-space losses that follow the global positioning module. Relative-space: we follow MobRecon [14], and use (1) a root-relative 3D Vertex $L_{1}$ Loss between the root-relative ground truth vertices and the outputs of the 3D decoder, (2) a 2D keypoint $L_{1}$ loss on the outputs of the 2D decoder, (3) a consistency loss that enforces consistency of outputs between inputs with different visual augmentations, (4) a $L_{1}$ edge loss on the length of the predicted mesh edges, and (5) a normal loss on the predicted mesh normals. For our camera-space losses, we use (1) a + +root mean squared error loss on the translation, (2) a keypoint consistency loss, which is a $L_{1}$ loss between the outputs of our 2D decoder and the projection of the predicted camera-space 3D keypoints, and (3) a 2D vertex $L_{1}$ loss on the 2D projection of the 3D camera-space vertices. + +Implementation details and additional method information, including losses and network architecture details, are available in the supplementary material. + +# 4 Experiments + +Datasets. We report our experiments on the following datasets: + +- FreiHAND [56]. We follow the evaluation protocol by [15, 26] using the dataset for our experiments. The dataset consists of images, 3D hand poses and MANO [46] fittings. It provides 130,240 training and 3,960 test images. + +- HO3D-v2 [20]. This dataset comprises real images capturing 3D hand-object interactions, with 66,034 images in the training set and 11,524 in the test set with MANO [46] model hand mesh annotations. Hands in this dataset suffer from severe occlusions caused by the manipulated object. The test set is not publicly available, and the evaluation is conducted on a public server. The server provides results in camera-space, root-relative, and aligned formats. However, participants are given ground truth camera-space hand translation values, and previous work typically reports results using this ground truth. + +- Human3.6M [27] This dataset is a large-scale 3D body pose benchmark containing 3.6 million frames with annotations of 3D joint coordinates and SMPL [42] meshes. We follow existing evaluation protocols [15], but do not use common aligned metrics and measure errors in camera-space. We adapt our framework to predict body meshes by just swapping MANO by SMPL. + +Metrics. We report the following metrics: + +- CS-MJE / CS-MVE: Measures the error, in terms of Euclidean distance, between the predicted joints (MJE) / vertices (MVE) and the ground truth in camera-space (CS) coordinates. Both are average errors over the test set in mm.

'B2. Baseline + DLT' refers to our baseline wherein our formulation of the DLT module is applied at test time only during a forward pass, i.e., without gradient propagation through the network. In 'B3. Baseline + RootNet', the global translation is determined using RootNet [39]. 'B4.

Finally, 'B5.

+ +Table 2: Method ablation experiments. We outperform all ablations on camera-space predictions across all datasets, validating our design choices and use of HandDGP. + +posed in Section 3.1. In Table 1 we observe that DGP outperforms all the other root-finding mechanisms. Non-learning approaches such as PnP, DLT and the optimization from Chen et al. [14] (B1, B2, B4) offer better predictions than learning-based methods such as RootNet [39] and our regression baseline (B5). These results still hold when image rectification is applied (BR1-3). Notably, the DGP formulation, even without training (forward pass), achieves comparable results to more sophisticated optimization methods, validating our design choice. In Table 2 we observe a significant reduction in error in all the datasets when learning the global positioning function with the proposed DGP (A2). For example, the camera-space vertex error is reduced by $2.7\mathrm{mm}$ , $35.1\mathrm{mm}$ and $17.3\mathrm{mm}$ in FreiHAND, HO3D-v2 and Human3.6M datasets respectively. This last result shows that HandDGP also transfers well to full body mesh predictions. + +Image Rectification Effect. We observe that rectifying input images enhances the learning of scale-sensitive features, as we remove one source of ambiguity by keeping the camera intrinsics constant during training. Interestingly, we note that while rectifying images aids in camera space predictions, it impacts root-relative predictions (Ours vs A4). We hypothesize that the primary reason for this degradation is that rectifying training images de facto reduces the amount of data augmentations that the network encounters during training, affecting the prediction of both 2D keypoints and 3D mesh geometry. This suggests a potential trade-off between root-relative and absolute prediction quality, depending on + +how the training data is processed, exacerbated by the 2D-to-3D depth and scale ambiguity. The network may generate incorrect hand shapes to compensate for errors in translation prediction and vice versa. In all cases, better camera-space positioning is achieved when the input image is rectified. + +![](images/220595c5364d15b480670ee709deedebfbb5d124e652368293ae0391298a3d55.jpg) + +![](images/515f2795fe8b4016ec5a750a52eb0c39cd7f89b9bbd0cc6813b3f441cbabf3ae.jpg) +Fig. 4: Keypoint selection.

For images in the test set, we draw the keypoints predicted by our 2D decoder onto the input image, color-coding each keypoint using its associated weight, as output by our weight decoder. The brighter the keypoint, the higher the weight associated with it. We also illustrate the weights themselves associated with each image in the bottom row of the figure. The first observation is that the weights associated with each keypoint clearly vary from image to image, indicating that our weight decoder actively contributes to our overall pipeline. Next, we notice that occluded keypoints generally tend to be associated with lower weights, suggesting that our method tends to focus on higher confidence keypoints. + +Qualitative Results. In Fig. 6 we present qualitative results using our full framework on test images from different datasets. In most cases, the hand projections appear accurate, as also quantitatively demonstrated in our relative results in Table 1. Additionally, we showcase some rare failure cases where high ambiguity arises due to blurring, changes in viewpoint, and self-occlusion. Merely displaying projected 2D meshes might not convey the complete truth, as predictions are made in the actual 3D camera space. To address this, we include predicted 3D meshes from rotated viewpoints to illustrate the actual translation gap between the predictions and the ground truth in Fig. 5 (b). While the hand posture is generally correct, we observe instances of translation errors, sometimes overcompensating with larger or smaller hand shapes. + +Root-relative results discussion. While not the focus of this work, Table 1 shows our method is outperformed by some baselines in the root-relative task by an average of $0.6\mathrm{mm}$ (RS-MVE). However, our improvements on camera-space errors (CS-MVE) are about $4\mathrm{mm}$ . To assess if this RS-MVE increase is an acceptable trade-off, Fig. 5 (c) compares our baseline and HandDGP on the FreiHAND test set. We selected images with a CS-MVE decrease of about $4\mathrm{mm}$ and an RS-MVE increase of at least $0.6\mathrm{mm}$ for MobRecon over HandDGP. The CS-MVE improvement is more evident when rotating the 3D viewpoint (columns 2-3). Our meshes are visibly closer to the ground truth, crucial for applications + +requiring interaction with real and digital objects. Higher RS-MVE (0.84-1.68 mm) are harder to visualize. Notably, a better RS error doesn't always result in a better image projection (last row) and can hide scale errors due to Procrustes alignment. We believe the $4\mathrm{mm}$ CS-MVE improvement is significant, and our visualizations suggest a $0.6\mathrm{mm}$ increase in RS errors is an acceptable trade-off. + +Framework Generalizability. In the supp. material we show the benefits of applying our framework to a different state-of-the-art root-relative method [15]. + +# 4.3 Comparison with State of the Art + +FreiHAND: In Table 3 and Fig. 5 (a) we compare our proposed framework with state-of-the-art camera-space methods. Notably, our method achieves the lowest camera-space errors among all methods. We achieve a $2.6\mathrm{mm}$ error improvement over CMR [15], despite also using segmentation masks in their root finding. We also compare with the ResNet50 variant of MobRecon [14] which is the same as our baseline B4 from the previous section. For Mo + +bRecon, we report our results based on our implementation, which closely aligns with the one provided by the authors, with slight changes in the data processing that are also shared with our method. A similar trend is observed in Figure 5 where our method achieves the highest AUC of vertex PCK's among all methods closely followed by both CMR and MobRecon-RN-50. We also compare favorably with NVF [26], the only available method that, similar to us, predicts directly in camera space. Note that NVF does not directly predict hand meshes, making them not easily comparable due to the loss of the MANO topology as their meshes are generated using Marching Cubes. We observe that the root-relative $+2\mathrm{D}$ -3D global positioning paradigm (ourselves, CMR and MobRecon) performs significantly better than other methods, followed by I2L-MeshNet [40] that uses [39] for root positioning, similar to our baseline B3. + +

Further qualitative results and comparisons are available in the supplementary material. + +as it is object-focused, and several occlusions are present. We observe that our method compares favorably to HandOccNet [41], which is currently the state of the art in relative pose predictions. To compute these predictions, we run their code that performs test-time optimization to predict the root translation. Despite their mesh projections looking good, the 3D predictions are often incorrect, with errors in the order of $15\mathrm{cm}$ . We also compare favorably to the work of Hasson et al. [24] that predicts both object and hand global translations. Given that object size is constant—compared to hands—predicting object roots is likely to help with the scale/depth ambiguity problem. We show qualitative comparisons both in the supplementary material and in the video presentation. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We presented a framework for camera space hand mesh prediction, enabling learning directly in camera space. Our baseline and ablation studies validated our design choices, showing our method surpasses state-of-the-art approaches that predict hand meshes in camera-space coordinates. Estimating absolute 3D geometry from a single RGB image is inherently ill-posed. Rectifying images and predicting in camera space help reduce errors. + +Our experiments show that while root-relative error is in the low single-digit millimeters, likely lower than annotation error, camera space error is 6 to 7 times larger. This is visually illustrated in Fig. 5 (b) and (c), suggesting a significant portion of total errors stems from 2D-to-3D depth ambiguity. We conjecture that isolating the hand from its context will soon reach a performance ceiling. Further research in new datasets and context-aware approaches, such as using scene geometry or objects, is needed to advance camera-space mesh inference. + +# Acknowledgements + +We would like to thank Filippo Aleotti for his help with baseline experiments and infrastructure; Jamie Watson, Zawar Qureshi, and Jakub Powierza for their help with infrastructure; Axel Laguna for his insightful discussions on minimal solvers and network architectures; Daniyar Turmukhambetov for valuable technical discussions; and Gabriel Brostow, Sara Vicente, Jessica Van Brummelen, and Michael Firman for their valuable feedback on different versions of the manuscript. + +# References + +1.

Predicting camera-space hand meshes from single RGB images is crucial for enabling realistic hand interactions in 3D virtual and augmented worlds. Previous work typically divided the task into two stages: given a cropped image of the hand, predict meshes in relative coordinates, followed by lifting these predictions into camera space in a separate and independent stage, often resulting in the loss of valuable contextual and scale information. To prevent the loss of these cues, we propose unifying these two stages into an end-to-end solution that addresses the 2D-3D correspondence problem. This solution enables backpropagation from camera space outputs to the rest of the network through a new differentiable global positioning module. We also introduce an image rectification step that harmonizes both the training dataset and the input image as if they were acquired with the same camera, helping to alleviate the inherent scale-depth ambiguity of the problem. We validate the effectiveness of our framework in evaluations against several baselines and state-of-the-art approaches across three public benchmarks." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: camera-space hand mesh estimation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " hand and body pose shape from RGB images " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " 3D-to-2D scale ambiguity " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 419, + 453, + 441 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " differentiable solver" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 458, + 230, + 471 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 458, + 230, + 471 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 458, + 230, + 471 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 480, + 481, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 480, + 481, + 552 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 480, + 481, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Predicting 3D hand meshes from single-view RGB images has become an increasingly popular research area due to its potential in augmented and virtual reality applications, such as virtual try-on experiences [49], human digitization [16], gaming [22], and teleoperation [1,18].

With a similar relative representation, Moon et al. [40] and Tang et al. [49] predict camera-space coordinates with the aid of an independent network known as RootNet [39]. Exploiting 2D-to-3D correspondences, CMR [15] and MobRecon [14] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, and then find the 3D rigid transformation that best explains the mesh projection via an independent test-time optimization process. Similarly, HandOccNet [41] also uses a test-time optimization to predict scale and root translation by minimizing a 2D projection loss. All these methods confine the learning stage to the relative space, yielding state-of-the-art relative meshes with high efficiency, but falling short when it comes to placing the hand in the camera space, as shown in our experiments." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 483, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 483, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 510, + 483, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "We propose to achieve the best of both worlds by simultaneously learning root-relative meshes and the 3D lifting function in an end-to-end manner. To this end, we propose a Differentiable Global Positioning (DGP) module, a modern take on the classical Direct Linear Transform algorithm [23]. DGP enables the backpropagation of gradients directly from camera space outputs to the 2D-3D correspondences defined by the 2D keypoint predictions and the root-relative 3D hand meshes. Thanks to being differentiable, DGP could potentially also be included in the learning of any hand mesh prediction neural network that predicts 2D hand keypoints and root-relative 3D hand meshes such as CMR [15] and MobRecon [14]. In our experiments, we show that allowing gradients to flow from the camera-space through the root-relative network results in better global hand mesh predictions compared to disjoint two-step approaches, e.g. using RootNet [39] or test-time optimizations, as well as an end-to-end regression" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 91, + 140, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "2" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 360, + 102 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 360, + 102 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 166, + 91, + 360, + 102 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Eugene Valassakis, Guillermo Garcia-Hernando" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 1 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 1 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 116, + 482, + 236 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 116, + 482, + 236 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 116, + 482, + 236 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "baseline that predicts both camera-space translation and relative predictions. Further, inspired by recent metric 3D scene geometry prediction work [51], we found in our experiments that a simple image and camera parameter rectification step helps to alleviate the inherent 2D-to-3D depth and scale ambiguity problem. The core idea is to conduct all learning as though the images were captured using the same camera model, thereby reducing the ambiguity that the network must resolve. While this approach leads to improved camera-space predictions, it incurs a slight decline in performance for relative-space predictions. We thoroughly examine the impact of this rectification step on both our method and on baseline approaches.

Most previous works in monocular RGB-based camera-space 3D hand mesh and pose estimation follow a two-stage approach: (1) a first stage for predicting hand mesh/pose in root-relative coordinates, and (2) a lifting stage to recover camera-space coordinates from root-relative ones. For monocular 3D hand pose estimation, Iqbal et al. [28] predicts in 2.5D root-relative space, and then lifts those predictions to 3D camera space predictions using an analytical solution. This result is up to a scaling factor, however, and to resolve the scale ambiguity an extra scale parameter is required, which is assumed to be provided [48] or globally estimated from data. I2L-MeshNet [40] proposes a regression approach to recover root-relative 2.5D meshes and subsequently lifts them to camera-space using a separate network RootNet [39] which uses prior anthropometric knowledge to reduce scale ambiguity [34]. NFV [26] proposes a neural voting approach with a 3D implicit function that directly regresses 3D hand poses in camera-space from full images. NFV uses a Marching Cubes post processing to predict meshes, which degrades efficiency and is at the cost of not having semantic mappings for their predicted vertices, which are crucial for some applications. Hasson et al. [24] predicts both object and hand camera-space translations using both hand and object cues, but makes assumptions on the geometry of the object which facilitate the scale recovery. Closest to our work, CMR [15], MobRecon [14] and HandOccNet [41] first predict both 2D keypoints and 3D root-relative meshes, while 3D camera-space coordinates are obtained with a test-time registration function that estimates the root position.

Different methods have been proposed for RGB-based monocular hand mesh reconstruction, with various hand output representations, such as parametric models, voxels, vertices, implicit functions or UV maps [13]. Parametric models [4,5,8,10,15,17,21,25,53] typically regress hand shape and pose coefficients of the MANO parametric hand model [46]. These methods are intrinsically limited by the expressiveness of the model used. Model-free methods circumvent these limitations by working on high dimensional representations. This can be true in voxel-based methods, such as I2L-MeshNet [40], which represents volumetric hand data in a 2.5D manner at the cost of efficiency. Also typically constrained by efficiency but at the benefit of high resolution are implicit function methods [26,30,31], which inherit from the trend started by human body digitization [6,26,38,43,47]. Vertex-based methods [14, 15,19,32,35,36,41] aim to directly predict 3D vertex coordinates. In this work we build upon MobRecon's framework [14] by adopting their pipeline: predicting 2D keypoints following an encoder-decoder approach then leveraging those keypoints to grid-sample features that are lifted to root-relative 3D by a graph neural decoder. We extend this framework by instead learning in camera-space owing to our proposed differentiable global positioning function.

Recently, numerous tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD)-based tensor recovery methods have shown promise in processing visual data, such as color images and videos. However, these methods often suffer from severe performance degradation when confronted with tensor data exhibiting non-smooth changes. It has been commonly observed in real-world scenarios but ignored by the traditional t-SVD-based methods. In this work, we introduce a novel tensor recovery model with a learnable tensor nuclear norm to address such challenge. We develop a new optimization algorithm named the Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) to iteratively solve the proposed tensor completion model. Theoretical analysis demonstrates the convergence of the proposed APMM to the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) point of the optimization problem. In addition, we propose a multi-objective tensor recovery framework based on APMM to efficiently explore the correlations of tensor data across its various dimensions, providing a new perspective on extending the t-SVD-based method to higher-order tensor cases.

Recently, numerous tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD)-based tensor recovery methods have shown promise in processing visual data, such as color images and videos. However, these methods often suffer from severe performance degradation when confronted with tensor data exhibiting non-smooth changes. It has been commonly observed in real-world scenarios but ignored by the traditional t-SVD-based methods. In this work, we introduce a novel tensor recovery model with a learnable tensor nuclear norm to address such challenge. We develop a new optimization algorithm named the Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) to iteratively solve the proposed tensor completion model. Theoretical analysis demonstrates the convergence of the proposed APMM to the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) point of the optimization problem. In addition, we propose a multi-objective tensor recovery framework based on APMM to efficiently explore the correlations of tensor data across its various dimensions, providing a new perspective on extending the t-SVD-based method to higher-order tensor cases.

In these t-SVD-based methods, a fixed invertible transform, such as Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) [16] and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) [17], is applied to a tensor data along its certain dimension. The low-rankness prior of each frontal slice of the transformed tensor has been used to explore global low-rankness of tensor data.

This substantial improvement showcased by TC-SL in color video inpainting provides strong evidence for its effectiveness in high-order tensor completion, particularly in scenarios involving non-smooth changes between tensor slices.

Recently, numerous tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD)-based tensor recovery methods have shown promise in processing visual data, such as color images and videos. However, these methods often suffer from severe performance degradation when confronted with tensor data exhibiting non-smooth changes. It has been commonly observed in real-world scenarios but ignored by the traditional t-SVD-based methods. In this work, we introduce a novel tensor recovery model with a learnable tensor nuclear norm to address such challenge. We develop a new optimization algorithm named the Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) to iteratively solve the proposed tensor completion model. Theoretical analysis demonstrates the convergence of the proposed APMM to the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) point of the optimization problem. In addition, we propose a multi-objective tensor recovery framework based on APMM to efficiently explore the correlations of tensor data across its various dimensions, providing a new perspective on extending the t-SVD-based method to higher-order tensor cases. Numerical experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method in tensor completion. + +Keywords: Tensor Completion $\cdot$ Tensor SVD $\cdot$ Multi-Objective Optimization + +# 1 Introduction + +In recent years, lots of tensor methods have been proposed to better analyze the low-rankness in massive high-dimensional tensor data, including color images, + +![](images/39d64f87f1a97ca3539af21c81719890e715134955c8e777ef16b59eaa08cc6f.jpg) +(a) Comparison of DFT-based t-SVD on yale dataset in ordered and random shuffled. + +![](images/eca936a55298bae3849924b4beab744a96b8c6afa347db125458e716eee22ae9.jpg) +(d) Disordered images for classification task. + +![](images/db3052619c3eba1a9a03278182dc7daefc1b5c3f621df0d85ca8c1d5b08eece2.jpg) +(b) Comparison of DCT-based t-SVD on yale dataset in ordered and random shuffled. + +![](images/4653b16a391c3da8beea731d2f7bf54af4bbdbc574e85d934195c62cdc0951d2.jpg) +(e) Video with rapidly changing frames +Fig. 1: Illustration to challenges of t-SVD-based methods in real world scenarios. + +![](images/53d8448ec859947fb6eb5307ca057b560a5d89a9e168d2ae0b4c881d6be35005.jpg) + +![](images/70a698ee5b389fa899dc1be78ddbad509a64c061b6df8a7d9ab5a16f0b55cfa6.jpg) +(c) Ordered images. +(f) Image sequence with different scenes. + +hyperspectral images, and videos [9,15-18,26], as the traditional matrix methods [1-4, 22, 24] fail on handling the tensor data. Depending on different adopted low-rank prior, these tensor methods can be categorized as: (1) CP (Canonical Polyadic) Decomposition-based methods [7,8,11], (2) Tucker Decomposition-based methods [6,14,21], and (3) t-SVD-based methods [16,17,20,28]. + +Recently, the t-SVD-based methods have gained increasing attention and achieved great success in the applications of visual data processing, such as data denoising [15], image and video inpainting [16, 17, 26], and background modeling and initialization [10, 15]. In these t-SVD-based methods, a fixed invertible transform, such as Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) [16] and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) [17], is applied to a tensor data along its certain dimension. The low-rankness prior of each frontal slice of the transformed tensor has been used to explore global low-rankness of tensor data. However, the approach of performing invertible transform and analyzing the low rankness along a specific dimension of tensor data poses the following challenges, namely: (i) non-smooth challenge, and (ii) the lack of an effective way to generalize t-SVD-based methods directly to higher-order tensor cases. + +Regarding the non-smooth challenge, Fig. 1 illustrates two different real-world scenarios: disordered images sequence (Fig. 1 (a)-(d)) and tensor data with nonsmooth changes (Fig. 1 (e)-(f)). These commonly encountered scenarios pose a significant challenge for t-SVD-based tensor analysis methods. Taken an example illustrated in Fig. 1 (a)-(d), the disordered images sequence often affect the tensor recovery performance significantly. This phenomenon is referred as to tensor slices permutation variability (SPV) [27], i.e., interchanging the frontal slice of the tensor will affect the t-SVD results. Since the sequence of samples is often disordered prior to classification, this phenomenon is frequently observed within + +classification tasks. Although Zheng et al. have proposed an effective solution for handling such issue by solving a Minimum Hamiltonian circle problem for the case of DFT [27], a general solution is still lacking. In addition, the recovery performance of the t-SVD-based methods is also susceptible to non-smooth of the tensor data itself [12]. These data include videos with rapidly changing content between frames and tensor data obtained by concatenating images with different scenes as illustrated in Fig. 1 (e) and (f), respectively. These non-smooth challenges arise because a fixed invertible transform, such as DFT or DCT, is applied to the tensor along certain dimensions, making the t-SVD sensitive to disorder and non-smooth changes in tensor slices. + +To address the mentioned second challenge, a common solution for handling high-order tensors is to utilize tensor unfolding operators [20, 28]. For example, in [28], the Weighted Sum of Tensor Nuclear Norm of all mode- $(k_{1}, k_{2})$ unfolding tensors (WSTNN) has been proposed to investigate correlations along different modes of higher order tensors. However, the consideration of weighted summation in WSTNN results in a challenging setting requiring $h(h - 1)/2$ weight parameters. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more effective methods to address this issue. + +This study aims to address the above two challenges, and our contributions are as follows. + +- We proposed a new tensor recovery model with a learnable tensor nuclear norm by introducing a set of unitary matrices to effectively address SPV and non-smoothness issues in the traditional t-SVD-based methods, thereby allowing our model to harness the inherent data characteristics. +- We presented a novel optimization algorithm named the Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) to solve the proposed tensor recovery model effectively, along with a corresponding convergence analysis in theory. +- We are the first in the literature to propose a multi-objective tensor recovery with learned tensor nuclear norms for effectively exploring the low-rankness of tensor data across its various dimensions, without the need for introducing numerous tensor variables and weights as in traditional weighted sum-based methods [25, 28]. The experimental results demonstrate the superior performance in tensor completion than other methods. For instance, the proposed framework has achieved a 3.5 dB improvement in color video inpainting! + +# 2 Multi-Objective Tensor Recovery with Learnable Tensor Nuclear Norms + +Before introducing our problem and the proposed methods, we summarize notations in Table 1 that will be used later. + +Table 1: Notations + +

+ +# 2.1 Tensor Completion Problem + +Considering tensor data $\mathcal{M} \in \mathbb{R}^{I_1 \times I_2 \times \dots \times I_h}$ may with missing elements, [17, 20] propose the following t-SVD-based tensor completion model: + +$$ +\min _ {\boldsymbol {x}} \operatorname {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} (\boldsymbol {x}) \quad s. t. \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {x}), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\varPsi_{\mathbb{I}}$ is a linear project operator on the support set $\mathbb{I}$ such that + +$$ +[ \varPsi_{\mathbb{I}}(\mathcal{M})]_{i_{1},i_{2},\dots ,i_{h}}=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}[\mathcal{M}]_{i_{1},i_{2},\cdots,i_{h}},& \mbox{if } (i_{1},i_{2},\cdots,i_{h})\in\mathbb{I};\\ 0,&\mbox{if }(i_{1},i_{2},\cdots,i_{h})\notin\mathbb{I},\end{array}\right. +$$ + +and $i_k \in [1: I_k]$ for $k = 1, 2, \dots, h$ . The tensor rank function in (1) operates on the assumption that an $h$ -order tensor data $\mathcal{M} \in \mathbb{R}^{I_1 \times I_2 \times \dots \times I_h}$ in the real world can be decomposed as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}} = \boldsymbol {\mathcal {Z}} \times_ {k _ {3}} \hat {\boldsymbol {U}} _ {k _ {3}} ^ {T} \dots \times_ {k _ {h}} \hat {\boldsymbol {U}} _ {k _ {h}} ^ {T}, \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\{k_3, k_4, \dots, k_h\} \subset [1:h]$ , $\{\hat{U}_{k_n}\}_{n=3}^h$ are a set of given invertible transforms, and + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \operatorname {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \max _ {i _ {k _ {n}} \in [ 1: I _ {k _ {n}} ] \text {f o r} n = 3, 4, \dots , h} \operatorname {r a n k} \left(\left[ \boldsymbol {\mathcal {Z}} ^ {T _ {k _ {1}}, \dots , k _ {h}} \right] _ {:,: i _ {k _ {3}}, \dots , i _ {k _ {h}}}\right) \\ < < \min \left(I _ {k _ {1}}, I _ {k _ {2}}\right) \tag {3} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +for certain $(k_{1},k_{2})$ satisfying $1\leq k_{1} < k_{2}\leq h$ . If taken $\{\hat{U}_{k_n}\}_{n = 3}^h$ as Discrete Fourier Matrices, $\mathrm{rank}_{[k_1,k_2]}(\mathcal{M})$ is referred as to tensor tubal rank of $\mathcal{M}$ [16]. + +# 2.2 The Proposed Tensor Completion with A Learnable Tensor Rank Function + +From the definition of $\mathrm{rank}_{[k_1,k_2]}(\mathcal{M})$ , we can see that it aims to examine the slice-wise tensor rank along the $(k_{1},k_{2})$ -th mode of transformed data $\pmb{\mathcal{Z}}$ . It allows (1) to investigate the low-rankness of different features in tensor data corresponding to different frequencies separately and jointly. + +However, when $\mathcal{M}$ exhibits harsh changes caused by disordered tensor slices along a certain mode $k_{n}$ , all information in $\mathcal{M}$ tends to collapse into the high-frequency slices in $\mathcal{Z}$ . To handle such situation, we introduce a learnable permutation matrix $P\in \mathbb{R}^{I_{k_n}\times I_{k_n}}$ to (2): + +$$ +\pmb {\mathcal {M}} \times_ {k _ {n}} \pmb {P} = \pmb {\mathcal {Z}} \times_ {k _ {3}} \hat {\pmb {U}} _ {k _ {3}} ^ {T} \dots \times_ {k _ {n}} (\hat {\pmb {U}} _ {k _ {n}} \pmb {P}) ^ {T} \times_ {k _ {n + 1}} \dots \times_ {k _ {h}} \hat {\pmb {U}} _ {k _ {h}} ^ {T}, +$$ + +and therefore we can get the following model: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \min _ {\boldsymbol {X}, \boldsymbol {P} _ {k _ {n}}} \operatorname {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} (\boldsymbol {X} \times_ {k _ {n}} \boldsymbol {P} _ {k _ {n}}) \\ s. t. \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}}), \\ \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {I _ {k _ {n}}} \left[ \boldsymbol {P} _ {k _ {n}} \right] _ {i, j} = 1, \quad \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {I _ {k _ {n}}} \left[ \boldsymbol {P} _ {k _ {n}} \right] _ {i, j} = 1 \text {f o r} \left[ \boldsymbol {P} _ {k _ {n}} \right] _ {i, j} \in \{0, 1 \}. \tag {4} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +This incorporation is aimed at addressing the slice permutation property in tensor completion methods, thus facilitating a more effective exploration of the low-rank property in $\mathcal{M}$ . + +Unfortunately, solving (4) is challenging due to the constraints of $\sum_{i=1}^{I_{k_n}}[P_{k_n}]_{i,j} = 1$ and $\sum_{j=1}^{I_{k_n}}[P_{k_n}]_{i,j} = 1$ for $[P_{k_n}]_{i,j} \in \{0,1\}$ . Therefore, we opt to use a set of learnable unitary matrices $\{\pmb{U}_{k_n}\}_{n=s+1}^h$ instead, proposing the following tensor completion model for given $\{k_{s+1}, k_{s+2}, \dots, k_h\}$ : + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \min _ {\boldsymbol {X}, \boldsymbol {U} _ {k _ {n}} (n = s + 1, \dots , h)} \operatorname {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}} \times_ {k _ {s + 1}} \boldsymbol {U} _ {k _ {s + 1}} \dots \times_ {k _ {h}} \boldsymbol {U} _ {k _ {h}}) \\ s. t. \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}}), \boldsymbol {U} _ {k _ {n}} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {U} _ {k _ {n}} = \boldsymbol {I} (n = s + 1, \dots , h), \tag {5} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{X}$ is a low-rank estimation of the true tensor data $\mathcal{M}$ . Besides simplifying the optimization process of (4), the introduction of the learnable unitary matrices enables the model to extract features for better studying the low-rankness in tensor data and to handle other scenarios where the initially provided transforms $\{\hat{U}_{k_n}\}_{n=3}^h$ are inadequate, such as videos with irregularly changing content and image sequences with different scenes. Hence, we introduce our learnable tensor rank as + +$$ +\mathrm {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ], \tilde {\mathcal {U}}} (\pmb {\mathscr {X}}) = \mathrm {r a n k} _ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} (\tilde {\mathcal {U}} (\pmb {\mathscr {X}})), +$$ + +where $\tilde{\mathcal{U}} (\pmb {x}) = \pmb {x}\times_{k_{s + 1}}\pmb{U}_{k_{s + 1}}\dots \times_{k_h}\pmb{U}_{k_h}.$ + +# 2.3 Approximation to The Proposed Tensor Completion by Using A Learnable Tensor Nuclear Norm (TC-SL) + +Since the function $\mathrm{rank}_{[k_1,k_2],\hat{\mathcal{U}}}(\cdot)$ is discrete, it often leads to the NP-hard problem. From the result given in [16,17], we know that, when $h = 3$ and $\hat{U}_3$ is orthogonal, $\| \cdot \|_{*}^{[1,2]}$ is the tightest convex envelope of $\mathrm{rank}_{[1,2]}(\cdot)$ on the set $\{\mathcal{A}||\mathcal{A}||_2^{[1,2]}\leq 1\}$ , where the definitions of $\| \cdot \| _2^{[k_1,k_2]}$ and $\| \cdot \|_{*}^{[k_{1},k_{2}]}$ are given in Definition 1. This conclusion can be easily extended to our case, and we obtain the Property 1. + +Definition 1.

For an h-order tensor $\mathcal{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{I_1 \times I_2 \times \dots \times I_h}$ , let us define $\| \mathcal{A} \|_{*,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ and $\| \mathcal{A} \|_{2,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ are defined as $\| \mathcal{A} \|_{*,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]} = \| \tilde{\mathcal{U}} (\mathcal{A}) \|_{*}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ and $\| \mathcal{A} \|_{2,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]} = \| \tilde{\mathcal{U}} (\mathcal{A}) \|_{2}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ , respectively. $\| \cdot \|_{*,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ is the dual norm of tensor $\| \cdot \|_{2,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ norm, and $\| \cdot \|_{*,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ is the tightest convex envelope of $\mathrm{rank}_{[k_1,k_2],\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}(\cdot)$ on the set $\{\mathcal{A} \| \mathcal{A} \|_{2,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}}^{[k_1,k_2]} \leq 1\}$ . + +Therefore, we derive an approximation to the proposed model (6) by utilizing a learnable tensor nuclear norm based on the prior assumption of slice-wise low-rankness in the transformed data (TC-SL): + +$$ +\min _ {\boldsymbol {X}, \tilde {\mathcal {U}}} \| \boldsymbol {X} \| _ {*}, \tilde {\mathcal {U}} ^ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} \quad s. t. \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}}). \tag {6} +$$ + +Let $\hat{\mathcal{U}}$ be the invertible transform operator learned by (6). The exactly recovery of TC-SL with given $\hat{\mathcal{U}}$ is guaranteed from the current studies in the exactly recovery of the t-SVD-based tensor completion [16, 17]. + +# 2.4 The Proposed Multi-Objective Tensor Completion to Learn The Cross-Dimensional Low-Rankness + +From (6), we observe that the definition of TC-SL depends on the choice of $k_{1}$ and $k_{2}$ , and it considers different kinds of low-rankness in the tensor data by adjusting $(k_{1}, k_{2})$ . However, considering only one mode may result in the loss of correlation information across the remaining modes. To address this issue, we give the following multi-objective model with learnable tensor nuclear norms for tensor completion (MOTC): + +$$ +\min _ {\boldsymbol {x}, \tilde {\mathcal {U}} _ {\left(k _ {1}, k _ {2}\right)}} \left[ \| \boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}} \| _ {*}, \tilde {\mathcal {U}} _ {\left(k _ {1}, k _ {2}\right)} ^ {[ k _ {1}, k _ {2} ]} \right] _ {1 \leq k _ {1} < k _ {2} \leq h} \quad s. t. \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {M}}) = \Psi_ {\mathbb {I}} (\boldsymbol {\mathcal {X}}), \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\tilde{\mathcal{U}}_{(k_1,k_2)}(\boldsymbol {x}) = \boldsymbol {x}\times_{k_{s + 1}}\boldsymbol{U}_{k_{s + 1}}^{(k_1,k_2)}\dots \times_{k_h}\boldsymbol{U}_{k_h}^{(k_1,k_2)}$ and $(\boldsymbol{U}_{k_n}^{(k_1,k_2)})^T\boldsymbol{U}_{k_n}^{(k_1,k_2)} = \boldsymbol{I}$ for $n = 1 + s,\dots ,h$ and $1\leq k_{1} < k_{2}\leq h$ . In MOTC, the multiple objective functions $\| \pmb {x}\|_{*,\tilde{\mathcal{U}}_{(k_1,k_2)}}^{[k_1,k_2]}$ $(1\leq k_{1} < k_{2}\leq h)$ are utilized to examine the low-rankness of tensor data from its various dimensions. + +# 3 Optimization Algorithm + +In this section, we provide a detailed discussion for the optimizing (6) and (7). + +# 3.1 Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) for TC-SL + +To solve the problem (6), we introduce auxiliary variables $\pmb{\mathcal{E}}\in \mathbb{E} = \{\pmb {\mathcal{E}}|\Psi_{\mathbb{I}}(\pmb {\mathcal{E}}) = \mathbf{0}\}$ and $\pmb{\Xi}$ such that $\pmb {x} = \pmb {z}\times_{k_{s + 1}}\pmb{U}_{k_{s + 1}}^T\dots \times_{k_h}\pmb{U}_{k_h}^T$ .

Here, $I_1 \times I_2$ represents the size of each image (frame), $I_3 = 3$ is RGB channel number of each image, and $I_4$ is the number of images (frames). For a fair comparison, we implemented the compared methods using the code provided by the respective authors in our experimental environment. + +We used the Peak Signal-To-Noise Ratio (PSNR) to evaluate the performance of different methods in tensor completion.

For LFW, we selected the first 50 classes, and for GTF, we selected the first five classes. Random shuffling was applied to the image sequences before testing. All PSNR results are provided in Table 3. + +From the results, both proposed methods (TC-SL and MOTC) achieved the best performance on average. Upon comparing HTNN-DCT and TC-SL, it is observed that the average performance of the proposed TC-SL surpasses HTNN-DCT by more than 4 dB. It indicates that our method, incorporating a learnable tensor norm, effectively handles SPV in t-SVD-based methods. Among all methods, MOTC achieves the best performance across all cases. Particularly noteworthy is the average PSNR result obtained by MOTC, outperforming other methods by more than 2.5 dB on average. Additionally, as observed in Fig. 3, the visual results obtained from MOTC exhibit smoother transitions and better restoration of intricate textures. All results highlights the effectiveness of the proposed framework. + +Results Analysis These results suggest that the proposed MOTC is able to exploit the correlations of tensor data along different dimensions effectively and can more accurately exploit the low-rank structure of four-order tensor data (the + +![](images/546d864bfefd5544ebd8464f2db18e599537c1370e80affbb6ae4725b0aebc7c.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparing PSNR by different methods on the 50 video segments at a sampling rate $p = 0.3$ . + +Table 4: Comparing the average PSNR by different methods on the 50 video segments at a sampling rate $p = 0.3$ . + +

The superiority of TC-SL and MOTC over other methods can be attributed to the introduction of both the given transforms from smooth priors and learnable unitary matrices, which enable it to better handle the non-smooth in tensor data caused by random shuffling image sequences (such as CIFAR10, CIFAR100, LFW, and GTF) or the concatenation of different scene images (such as BSD) and capture the underlying low-rank structures in the tensor data more effectively. + +# 4.2 Color Video Inpainting for Video with Rapidly Changing Frames + +We evaluated all tensor completion methods on the randomly selected 50 color video segments with the rapidly changing frames from the 'run' category of the HMDB5111. + +![](images/55b4dbd767cffc01a793faece85db3d8a8a0d056d57fd351d4075e1d3f499eb4.jpg) +Fig. 5: Examples of video inpainting by different methods on HMDB51 dataset for case of $p = 0.3$ . Best viewed in $\times 2$ sized color pdf file. + +We presented the PSNR values of all methods on the 50 video segments in Fig. 4 and report their average results in Table 4. The results show a significant improvement achieved by our methods (TC-SL and MOTC) for color video inpainting. For some videos (such as the 24-th, 34-th, 42-th, 43-th), as shown in the Fig. 4, MOTC even achieved a 5-10 dB improvement in PSNR value! Furthermore, the average results obtained by MOTC outperform the third-best method by more than 3.5 dB on average, where the second-best method is TC-SL. The comparison between TC-SL and MOTC demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed multi-objective tensor recovery framework in exploring the low-rankness of high-order tensor data across its various dimensions. Additionally, comparing tensor methods that consider the low-rankness of a tensor along with only one of its dimensions, TC-SL has achieved a 6.5 dB improvement! This substantial improvement showcased by TC-SL in color video inpainting provides strong evidence for its effectiveness in high-order tensor completion, particularly in scenarios involving non-smooth changes between tensor slices. Visual examples of video inpainting by different methods are presented in Fig. 5. As we can see from the Fig. 5, even for cases that are hardly recognized by humans, MOTC can still reconstruct the video well and restore more detailed information than other tensor completion methods. + +# 5 Conclusions + +In this work, we propose a multi-objective tensor recovery framework with a learnable tensor nuclear norm, which is solved by the proposed APMM-based heuristic optimization. This framework first provides an effective solution for addressing the non-smooth challenge in t-SVD-based methods. Thanks to our proposed methods, there has no longer a need to introduce $\binom{h}{2}$ variables and tune weighted parameters to analyze the correlation information of tensors across different dimensions. Experimental results in real-world applications demonstrate the superiority of our methods over previous methods, especially for the tensor data with non-smooth changes. + +It is worth noting that the proposed tensor completion methods and framework extend beyond tensor completion alone and are applicable to various tensor analysis problems and tasks, including data processing, representation learning, sketching, and clustering. Many directions for future work are possible. + +Acknowledgements We acknowledge funding from New Frontiers in Research Fund (grant NFRFE-2022-00663), the NSERC Discovery Program (grants RGPIN2019-05499 and DGECR-2020-00296), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (grant U2033210), and the Zhejiang Provincial Natural Science Foundation (grant LDT23F02024F02).

Recently, numerous tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD)-based tensor recovery methods have shown promise in processing visual data, such as color images and videos. However, these methods often suffer from severe performance degradation when confronted with tensor data exhibiting non-smooth changes. It has been commonly observed in real-world scenarios but ignored by the traditional t-SVD-based methods. In this work, we introduce a novel tensor recovery model with a learnable tensor nuclear norm to address such challenge. We develop a new optimization algorithm named the Alternating Proximal Multiplier Method (APMM) to iteratively solve the proposed tensor completion model. Theoretical analysis demonstrates the convergence of the proposed APMM to the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) point of the optimization problem. In addition, we propose a multi-objective tensor recovery framework based on APMM to efficiently explore the correlations of tensor data across its various dimensions, providing a new perspective on extending the t-SVD-based method to higher-order tensor cases. Numerical experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method in tensor completion." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 555, + 454, + 578 + ], + "type": "text",

In these t-SVD-based methods, a fixed invertible transform, such as Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) [16] and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) [17], is applied to a tensor data along its certain dimension. The low-rankness prior of each frontal slice of the transformed tensor has been used to explore global low-rankness of tensor data. However, the approach of performing invertible transform and analyzing the low rankness along a specific dimension of tensor data poses the following challenges, namely: (i) non-smooth challenge, and (ii) the lack of an effective way to generalize t-SVD-based methods directly to higher-order tensor cases." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 16 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 482, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 482, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 482, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Regarding the non-smooth challenge, Fig. 1 illustrates two different real-world scenarios: disordered images sequence (Fig. 1 (a)-(d)) and tensor data with nonsmooth changes (Fig. 1 (e)-(f)).

Taken an example illustrated in Fig. 1 (a)-(d), the disordered images sequence often affect the tensor recovery performance significantly.

These data include videos with rapidly changing content between frames and tensor data obtained by concatenating images with different scenes as illustrated in Fig. 1 (e) and (f), respectively.

This substantial improvement showcased by TC-SL in color video inpainting provides strong evidence for its effectiveness in high-order tensor completion, particularly in scenarios involving non-smooth changes between tensor slices.

Knowledge distillation (KD), known for its ability to transfer knowledge from a cumbersome network (teacher) to a lightweight one (student) without altering the architecture, has been garnering increasing attention. Two primary categories emerge within KD methods: feature-based, focusing on intermediate layers' features, and logits-based, targeting the final layer's logits. This paper introduces a novel perspective by leveraging diverse knowledge sources within a unified KD framework. Specifically, we aggregate features from intermediate layers into a comprehensive representation, effectively gathering semantic information from different stages and scales. Subsequently, we predict the distribution parameters from this representation.

Mainstream knowledge distillation methods are primarily classified into two categories: 1) logits-based [3, 11, 30, 34] and 2) feature-based [13, 14, 20]. Logits-based distillation focuses on transferring the teacher's output classification probability to the student network.

This paper aims to facilitate knowledge transfer from the teacher to the student network across various layers using a unified constraint. We will explain the proposed method using three step-by-step problems. First, why conduct knowledge distillation at different layers? On the one hand, considering feature capture at different backbone stages is crucial. Shallow layers encode robust local features, bolstering the network's noise and interference resistance, while deep layers capture abstract semantic information, enhancing adaptability to novel data. On the other hand, the final layer's logits, which directly relate to the task's decision-making, contain rich information. Thus, the integration of different stages features and the utilization of logits' knowledge are necessary. Second, why unify different types of knowledge distillation methods? Continuous-valued features are compared in the continuous space using Mean Square Error (MSE), while logits consider the shape of the overall distribution via Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence rather than just the difference in individual values. These two distillation methods have fundamentally different optimization objectives, which lead to varying effects on the gradients and update rules of the network parameters. Attempting to have the student network receive different types of supervision from the teacher in a single distillation process can result in unclear optimization objectives, making it difficult to achieve the optimal solution. Third, why unify different knowledge into logits? Features contain a large amount of information, and each element includes information on the input data.

Knowledge distillation (KD), known for its ability to transfer knowledge from a cumbersome network (teacher) to a lightweight one (student) without altering the architecture, has been garnering increasing attention. Two primary categories emerge within KD methods: feature-based, focusing on intermediate layers' features, and logits-based, targeting the final layer's logits. This paper introduces a novel perspective by leveraging diverse knowledge sources within a unified KD framework. Specifically, we aggregate features from intermediate layers into a comprehensive representation, effectively gathering semantic information from different stages and scales. Subsequently, we predict the distribution parameters from this representation. These steps transform knowledge from the intermediate layers into corresponding distributive forms, thereby allowing for knowledge distillation through a unified distribution constraint at different stages of the network, ensuring the comprehensiveness and coherence of knowledge transfer. Numerous experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.217, + 0.576, + 0.377, + 0.592 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.606, + 0.788, + 0.819 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Despite the considerable efficacy of large-scale models [1,4,18,25] in a broad spectrum of tasks, their substantial size and computational demands present significant challenges.

The primary objective of knowledge distillation is to facilitate knowledge transfer from a sophisticated, high-capacity teacher network to a more streamlined and efficient student network. Mainstream knowledge distillation methods are primarily classified into two categories: 1) logits-based [3, 11, 30, 34] and 2) feature-based [13, 14, 20]. Logits-based distillation focuses on transferring the teacher's output classification probability to the student network. This methodology focuses on capturing the class probability distribution, which serves as distribution-level constraints. Conversely, feature-based approaches seek to align the individual feature values or activations at each spatial location between the teacher and student networks.

This paper aims to facilitate knowledge transfer from the teacher to the student network across various layers using a unified constraint. We will explain the proposed method using three step-by-step problems. First, why conduct knowledge distillation at different layers? On the one hand, considering feature capture at different backbone stages is crucial. Shallow layers encode robust local features, bolstering the network's noise and interference resistance, while deep layers capture abstract semantic information, enhancing adaptability to novel data. On the other hand, the final layer's logits, which directly relate to the task's decision-making, contain rich information. Thus, the integration of different stages features and the utilization of logits' knowledge are necessary. Second, why unify different types of knowledge distillation methods? Continuous-valued features are compared in the continuous space using Mean Square Error (MSE), while logits consider the shape of the overall distribution via Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence rather than just the difference in individual values. These two distillation methods have fundamentally different optimization objectives, which lead to varying effects on the gradients and update rules of the network parameters. Attempting to have the student network receive different types of supervision from the teacher in a single distillation process can result in unclear optimization objectives, making it difficult to achieve the optimal solution. Third, why unify different knowledge into logits? Features contain a large amount of information, and each element includes information on the input data. However, this information can be redundant or only indirectly related to the final task.

Following this, we explore the knowledge distribution at intermediate layers by utilizing the Feature Distribution Prediction (FDP) module to estimate distribution parameters. This way, knowledge distillation within the intermediate layers can be conducted by implementing distribution-level constraints.

Knowledge distillation (KD), known for its ability to transfer knowledge from a cumbersome network (teacher) to a lightweight one (student) without altering the architecture, has been garnering increasing attention. Two primary categories emerge within KD methods: feature-based, focusing on intermediate layers' features, and logits-based, targeting the final layer's logits. This paper introduces a novel perspective by leveraging diverse knowledge sources within a unified KD framework. Specifically, we aggregate features from intermediate layers into a comprehensive representation, effectively gathering semantic information from different stages and scales. Subsequently, we predict the distribution parameters from this representation. These steps transform knowledge from the intermediate layers into corresponding distributive forms, thereby allowing for knowledge distillation through a unified distribution constraint at different stages of the network, ensuring the comprehensiveness and coherence of knowledge transfer. Numerous experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. + +# 1 Introduction + +Despite the considerable efficacy of large-scale models [1,4,18,25] in a broad spectrum of tasks, their substantial size and computational demands present significant challenges. Knowledge Distillation, a widely employed network compression technique, continues to attract substantial attention. The primary objective of knowledge distillation is to facilitate knowledge transfer from a sophisticated, high-capacity teacher network to a more streamlined and efficient student network. Mainstream knowledge distillation methods are primarily classified into two categories: 1) logits-based [3, 11, 30, 34] and 2) feature-based [13, 14, 20]. Logits-based distillation focuses on transferring the teacher's output classification probability to the student network. This methodology focuses on capturing the class probability distribution, which serves as distribution-level constraints. Conversely, feature-based approaches seek to align the individual feature values or activations at each spatial location between the teacher and student networks. This process can be viewed as imposing pixel-level constraints. + +![](images/ab348db798e013526e41b033d7cc49eef199830dfddd64148f2d957df3a5906d.jpg) +Fig. 1: Comparison of Methodologies in Feature-based knowledge distillation (MSE), Logits-based knowledge distillation (KL), and the Proposed UniKD. UniKD achieves unified knowledge distillation across different network layers, considering information at various levels while circumventing the incoherence from direct combinations. + +A critical review of current knowledge distillation methods reveals that these approaches typically center on either a singular type of knowledge [2, 6, 9, 20, 24, 31, 33, 34] or a direct hybridization of two knowledge types [8, 22], overlooking the inconsistencies in knowledge across different layers. This paper aims to facilitate knowledge transfer from the teacher to the student network across various layers using a unified constraint. We will explain the proposed method using three step-by-step problems. First, why conduct knowledge distillation at different layers? On the one hand, considering feature capture at different backbone stages is crucial. Shallow layers encode robust local features, bolstering the network's noise and interference resistance, while deep layers capture abstract semantic information, enhancing adaptability to novel data. On the other hand, the final layer's logits, which directly relate to the task's decision-making, contain rich information. Thus, the integration of different stages features and the utilization of logits' knowledge are necessary. Second, why unify different types of knowledge distillation methods? Continuous-valued features are compared in the continuous space using Mean Square Error (MSE), while logits consider the shape of the overall distribution via Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence rather than just the difference in individual values. These two distillation methods have fundamentally different optimization objectives, which lead to varying effects on the gradients and update rules of the network parameters. Attempting to have the student network receive different types of supervision from the teacher in a single distillation process can result in unclear optimization objectives, making it difficult to achieve the optimal solution. Third, why unify different knowledge into logits? Features contain a large amount of information, and each element includes information on the input data. However, this information can be redundant or only indirectly related to the final task. Ensur + +ing strict pixel-level feature alignment between the teacher and student networks can impose overly rigid constraints and result in sub-optimal solutions [21]. In contrast, each dimension of logits directly corresponds to a specific category, and its value reflects the network's prediction information for that category. Logits carry a higher information density and are directly related to the final decision process. + +Building upon the previous analysis, we introduce the Unified Knowledge Distillation (UniKD), which ensures harmonized knowledge transfer across different layers, thus facilitating an integrated and coherent transfer from the teacher to the student network. Specifically, the Adaptive Features Fusion (AFF) module is employed to derive an integrated representation from intermediate layers. AFF can retain critical information across different scales while simplifying the computation process. Following this, we explore the knowledge distribution at intermediate layers by utilizing the Feature Distribution Prediction (FDP) module to estimate distribution parameters. This way, knowledge distillation within the intermediate layers can be conducted by implementing distribution-level constraints. Upon completing these steps, UniKD enables a uniform and coherent knowledge distillation process through the network's various layers. In summary, the main contributions of this work include: + +- We comprehensively analyze the challenges in current knowledge distillation methods and introduce UniKD. This framework ensures uniform knowledge distillation across various network layers, thereby ensuring the integrity and coherence of the knowledge transfer. +- The AFF module aggregates features from intermediate layers, which retains multi-scale information while avoiding unnecessary information transfer and further utilizes the FDP to harmonize the knowledge across different layers. +- The superiority of our method is demonstrated by extensive comparative experiments with teacher-student pairs across various datasets for different tasks. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Logits-based Knowledge Distillation + +Knowledge Distillation, first introduced in [9], aims to distill knowledge from a large, cumbersome model into a smaller, faster one without significant generalization performance loss. It encourages the student model to mimic the teacher's outputs by minimizing the divergence between the teacher's and student's predictions. Following this, a significant amount of work has focused on the research of logits-based knowledge distillation. DML [33] introduces a mutual-learning paradigm that enables an ensemble of students to learn collaboratively and teach each other throughout the training process. WSL [6] explores the reasons behind the functionality of soft labels by comparing the bias-variance of direct training without distillation and training with distillation. DKD [34] and USKD [30] decouple the predicted class distributed to further extract information from the + +![](images/1b467ffa137f30b8880633246041713420f227a3f3ac7660bf0eca8bb113e300.jpg) +Fig. 2: The overall framework of the proposed UniKD. Our approach primarily comprises two modules. Initially, the features from the intermediate layers are aggregated using the stacked Adaptive Features Fusion (AFF) modules, followed by the derivation of the corresponding feature distribution through the Feature Distribution Prediction module (FDP). Consequently, our Unified Knowledge Distillation (UniKD) facilitates knowledge distillation in both the intermediate layer's features distribution and the final layer's probability distribution under a unified constraint. + +logits. MLKD [11] aligns logits not only at the instance level but also at the batch and class levels. [32] achieves self-distillation by converting the final logits and the features from intermediate layers into logits using a fully connected layer. + +# 2.2 Feature-based Knowledge Distillation + +Unlike distillation on logits, feature-based methods were first introduced in Fit-Nets [20], which transfers knowledge from intermediate features. Inspired by this, various methods have been proposed to match the features. AT [31] focuses on transferring the attention of feature maps to the students. OFD [7] operates by collaboratively considering the adaptive layer, distillation feature, and distance function. CRD [24] aims to maximize the lower bound of mutual information between the teacher and student by utilizing the approach of contrastive learning. KR [2] enhances distillation performance through the review of existing knowledge. Additionally, some methods [17,26] concentrate on distilling the correlation to convey the teacher's knowledge. + +Previous KD approaches focused on only one of these types of knowledge (features or logits). Some studies, despite incorporating two knowledge types [10, + +[22], need to address the distinctions between features and logits. [27] converts features into corresponding logits using the head, disregarding the differences in knowledge across different layers. This paper proposes UniKD, a solution that enables consistent knowledge transfer across different layers through unified knowledge. + +# 3 Unified Knowledge Distillation + +This section begins with a review of existing distillation methods, analyzing their limitations. Subsequently, we present our method, detailing the specific modules it comprises. Figure 2 provides a comprehensive overview of this framework. + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +Logits-based $KD$ was first proposed in [9], where the student learns the logits knowledge from the teacher through KL divergence. In contrast to direct supervised learning through ground truth, logits-based $KD$ using soft labels can elicit more 'dark knowledge' [9], thereby enhancing the performance of the student network without altering its architecture. The logits distillation losses are represented as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {L} = K L \left(p ^ {t} \mid \mid p ^ {s}\right) = \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {C} p _ {j} ^ {t} (\tau) \log \left(\frac {p _ {j} ^ {t} (\tau)}{p _ {j} ^ {s} (\tau)}\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +$P_{j}$ denotes the class probability derived from the logits $z \in \mathbb{R}^{C}$ after undergoing Softmax. $\tau$ is the temperature scaling hyper-parameter which enables the production of different probability distributions: + +$$ +P _ {j} (\tau) = \frac {e ^ {z _ {j} / \tau}}{\sum_ {c = 1} ^ {C} e ^ {z _ {c} / \tau}}. \tag {2} +$$ + +Feature-based $KD$ transfers the knowledge of intermediate layers features from the teacher to the student. Generally, we can formulate such distillation methods as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {F} = \frac {1}{2} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {n} \left| \left| \mathcal {F} _ {i} ^ {t} - w \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i} ^ {s}\right) \right| \right| ^ {2}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{F}_i^t$ and $\mathcal{F}_i^s$ are the corresponding features of the teacher and student at $i$ -th layer. $w(\cdot)$ is a mapping function that aligns the dimensions of features from the student to the teacher. + +From the above distillation process, it can be seen that logits-based knowledge distillation focuses on constraining the overall knowledge distribution. In contrast, feature-based knowledge distillation imposes pixel-level constraints on the student network. These two methods have distinct optimization objectives + +during the distillation process, and directly integrating them can lead to suboptimal solutions. In this study, we aim to achieve comprehensive knowledge transfer by conducting knowledge distillation on the intermediate layer features and the final layer logits. To address this issue, we introduce UniKD, a meticulously designed framework that adjusts the intermediate layer features for a thorough and consistent knowledge transfer, using the same constraints employed for the final layer's logits. + +# 3.2 Unified Knowledge Transfer + +In this paper, we convert the intermediate layers features at the pixel level into a distribution form of type logits, facilitating the distillation of knowledge at the distribution level from the intermediate layers. This primarily considers the inherent differences in representation between the teacher and student networks due to the gap in model size, making it difficult for the student network to understand excessive pixel-level constraints. In contrast, logits provide a higher-level abstract representation that captures the overall characteristics of the input data rather than just the local pixel-level details. Therefore, by aligning the logits distributions, the student network can better learn the knowledge from the teacher network, enhancing its performance. + +Adaptive Features Fusion Module Directly transforming features from each layer to their corresponding distributions is computationally expensive and challenging. Therefore, we first fuse features from different layers to obtain a feature that incorporates multi-scale information. This approach ensures that the resultant feature representation captures both fine-grained details from lower layers and high-level semantics from upper layers. By integrating multi-scale information, the model can effectively process diverse features with reduced computational overhead. We propose the Adaptive Features Fusion (AFF) module, which aggregates feature information from different layers. We denote the output of each intermediate layer's last residual blocks as $\{\mathcal{F}_1,\mathcal{F}_2,\dots ,\mathcal{F}_L\}$ . For $\mathcal{F}_{i - 1}$ , its channels are increased through an expander and then concatenated with the result after upsampling of $\mathcal{F}_i$ . Subsequently, both information is fused through a gate mechanism, and the integrated intermediate representation $\mathcal{F}_R$ are output through an top-down method. Formally, + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {F} _ {R} = \mathbf {g} \odot \mathbf {E} \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i - 1}\right) + (1 - \mathbf {g}) \odot \mathbf {U p} \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i}\right), \\ \mathbf {g} = f \left(\mathbf {E} \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i - 1}\right) \oplus \mathbf {U p} \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i}\right)\right), \tag {4} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $i = 2,3,\ldots ,L$ , $\mathbf{E}$ represents a $1\times 1$ convolution to adapt to the number of channels at the $(i - 1)$ -th layer, $\mathbf{U}\mathbf{p}$ denotes an upsampling operation to match the resolution of the $(i - 1)$ -th layer, $f$ stands for a gating function implemented through a $3\times 3$ convolution, $\odot$ indicates point-wise multiplication, and $\oplus$ represents the concatenation operator. By adaptively determining the importance of adjacent layer features through $g$ , this approach ensures that the resultant $\mathcal{F}_R$ retains the relatively significant components across different layers while eliminating redundant information. + +Feature Distribution Prediction Module Feature-based Knowledge distillation inherently steers the student's intermediate feature towards convergence with the teacher's, suggesting a shared underlying distribution for student and teacher features. In this work, we align the features of the teacher and student networks at the intermediate layers to a multivariate Gaussian distribution. The Gaussian assumption allows us to model the distribution of features with fewer parameters, capturing the essential characteristics of the data while discarding redundant information. Thus, this approach not only facilitates computation by leveraging the properties of Gaussian distributions, which simplify mathematical operations and statistical analysis, but has also been empirically proven to be effective in improving the performance of the student network. + +For the multivariate Gaussian distributions corresponding to the features output by the student network, $q_{\phi} = \mathcal{N}(\mu_s,\Sigma_s)$ , and those output by the teacher network, $q_{\theta} = \mathcal{N}(\mu_t,\Sigma_t)$ , the KL divergence between them can be determined with an explicit analytical solution. $\mu_{s}$ and $\mu_{t}$ represent the mean vectors of the distributions corresponding to student and teacher features, respectively, while $\Sigma_{s}$ and $\Sigma_{t}$ denote the corresponding covariance matrices. The analytical solution as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {F L} \left(q _ {\phi} \| p _ {\theta}\right) = \frac {1}{2} \left(\operatorname {t r} \left(\Sigma_ {t} ^ {- 1} \Sigma_ {s}\right) + \left(\mu_ {t} - \mu_ {s}\right) ^ {\top} \Sigma_ {t} ^ {- 1} \left(\mu_ {t} - \mu_ {s}\right) - k + \ln \left(\frac {| \Sigma_ {t} |}{| \Sigma_ {s} |}\right)\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +where $tr(\cdot)$ denotes the trace of a matrix, $|\cdot|$ represents the determinant of the matrix, and $k$ is the dimensionality of the features. A detailed proof of the process for obtaining the explicit analytical solutions is provided in the Supplementary Materials. + +Eq. 5 involves the computation of the inverse matrix, the determinant, as well as the trace of the matrix, which is not only time-consuming but also numerically unstable, particularly in high-dimensional spaces. Here, we simplify the corresponding covariance matrices to diagonal matrices, specifically $\Sigma_{s} = \mathrm{diag}\left(\sigma_{s1}^{2},\sigma_{s2}^{2},\ldots ,\sigma_{sk}^{2}\right)$ and $\Sigma_{t} = \mathrm{diag}\left(\sigma_{t1}^{2},\sigma_{t2}^{2},\ldots ,\sigma_{tk}^{2}\right)$ . Consequently, Eq. 5 can be simplified as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {F L} \left(q _ {\phi} \| p _ {\theta}\right) = \frac {1}{2} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {k} \left(\frac {\sigma_ {s i} ^ {2}}{\sigma_ {t i} ^ {2}} + \frac {\left(\mu_ {t i} - \mu_ {s i}\right) ^ {2}}{\sigma_ {t i} ^ {2}} - 1 + \ln \left(\frac {\sigma_ {t i} ^ {2}}{\sigma_ {s i} ^ {2}}\right)\right), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\sigma_{si}^2$ and $\sigma_{ti}^2$ represent the variance of the student and teacher features in the $i$ th dimension, respectively, while $\mu_{si}$ and $\mu_{ti}$ denote the corresponding means. + +Based on the aforementioned analysis, we only need to predict the corresponding mean values $\mu_s$ , $\mu_t$ and variances $\sigma_s^2$ , $\sigma_t^2$ of the student and teacher network features. Regarding the $\mathcal{F}_R$ obtained through the Attention Feature Fusion (AFF) method, we deploy a Feature Distribution Prediction (FDP) module with shared parameters to predict the parameters of the multivariate Gaussian distributions corresponding to the fused features of both the student $\mathcal{F}_R^s$ and the teacher $\mathcal{F}_R^t$ . Specifically, for $\mathcal{F}_R^s$ and $\mathcal{F}_R^t$ , we apply pooling and flattening + +Table 1: Results on the CIFAR-100 validation. Teachers and students are in homogeneous architectures.

This process implements the distillation of feature knowledge as formulated in Eq. 6. + +# 3.3 Overall Objective Loss + +We employ the AFF method to merge features from various layers, subsequently converting them into their respective distributions using the FDP. This method effectively standardizes the process of distilling knowledge from both the intermediate layers and the final layer logits. Our approach ensures a consistent and efficient knowledge transfer by utilizing KL divergence, as detailed in Eq. 6 and 1 respectively. This not only enhances the learning capacity of the student model by leveraging the rich feature information from the teacher model but also simplifies the overall distillation process. In summary, by integrating Eq. 1 and Eq. 6, the total training objective for the student model is: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \mathcal {L} _ {C E} + \alpha \mathcal {L} _ {F L} + \beta \mathcal {L} _ {L}, \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{L}_{CE}$ is the standard task training loss for the student, $\alpha, \beta$ is corresponding weights.

The results of these experiments are presented in Table 2. Similar to the observations made in the homogeneous architecture scenario, we noticed a substantial performance improvement. This result suggests that our method is not only effective in homogeneous architecture scenarios but also in heterogeneous architecture. This further underscores the adaptability and effectiveness of our approach in a wide range of scenarios. + +Results on ImageNet. In order to showcase the wide-ranging effectiveness of our methodology, we engaged in a series of comparative analyses using a notably intricate dataset, ImageNet. We report both Top-1 and Top-5 accuracy in Table 3. We also conducted comparative experiments on homogeneous architectures (ResNet34 and ResNet18) and heterogeneous architectures (ResNet50 and MobileNet). The results in the table show that our method has improved by $0.93\%$ and $0.24\%$ compared to the previous SOTA methods on Top-1 accuracy. + +Results on MS-COCO. We extensively experimented with object detection tasks. Object detection is more complex than classification as it requires not only categorizing objects but also accurately determining their bounding boxes. We employed the widely recognized MS-COCO 2017 dataset for method evaluation for these experiments. Detector2 [29], a popular open-source framework, served as our benchmark. We adopted Faster-RCNN [19] with FPN [15] as the backbone architecture. Performance was assessed on the MS-COCO 2017 validation set using metrics such as $AP$ , $AP_{50}$ , and $AP_{75}$ , with results presented in Table 4. The results indicate that our method holds a distinct advantage over approaches utilizing a single type of knowledge. Compared with straightforward hybrids of two knowledge types, UnikD consistently outperforms in most scenarios. However, employing constraints at the distribution level might yield less significant improvements for dense prediction tasks such as object detection than classification tasks.

In order to better illustrate the core element of our method, which is the ability to coordinate different types of knowledge at different layers of a network and thus ensure comprehensive and coherent knowledge transfer, we compared our approach with directly hybrid two types of KD methods. We evaluated four different logits-based and feature-based simple hybrid methods and FLG [10], which incorporates distillation via logits, features, and gradients but does not unify varying knowledge types. The results in Table 5 indicate that combining the two types of distillation methods can significantly enhance the performance of the student network, underscoring the importance of integrating knowledge from different layers. However, compared to the proposed UniKD, which conducts comprehensive and continuous knowledge distillation using a unified type of knowledge, the performance gap remains substantial. By representing the knowledge of each layer of the network in a unified manner, our method can mitigate the inconsistency between different types of knowledge and enhance the distillation performance. This further highlights the necessity of unifying different types of knowledge. + +Convergence Analysis. Figure 3 illustrates the convergence behaviors of different distillation methods.

Knowledge distillation (KD), known for its ability to transfer knowledge from a cumbersome network (teacher) to a lightweight one (student) without altering the architecture, has been garnering increasing attention. Two primary categories emerge within KD methods: feature-based, focusing on intermediate layers' features, and logits-based, targeting the final layer's logits. This paper introduces a novel perspective by leveraging diverse knowledge sources within a unified KD framework. Specifically, we aggregate features from intermediate layers into a comprehensive representation, effectively gathering semantic information from different stages and scales. Subsequently, we predict the distribution parameters from this representation. These steps transform knowledge from the intermediate layers into corresponding distributive forms, thereby allowing for knowledge distillation through a unified distribution constraint at different stages of the network, ensuring the comprehensiveness and coherence of knowledge transfer.

Mainstream knowledge distillation methods are primarily classified into two categories: 1) logits-based [3, 11, 30, 34] and 2) feature-based [13, 14, 20]. Logits-based distillation focuses on transferring the teacher's output classification probability to the student network. This methodology focuses on capturing the class probability distribution, which serves as distribution-level constraints. Conversely, feature-based approaches seek to align the individual feature values or activations at each spatial location between the teacher and student networks.

This paper aims to facilitate knowledge transfer from the teacher to the student network across various layers using a unified constraint. We will explain the proposed method using three step-by-step problems. First, why conduct knowledge distillation at different layers? On the one hand, considering feature capture at different backbone stages is crucial. Shallow layers encode robust local features, bolstering the network's noise and interference resistance, while deep layers capture abstract semantic information, enhancing adaptability to novel data. On the other hand, the final layer's logits, which directly relate to the task's decision-making, contain rich information. Thus, the integration of different stages features and the utilization of logits' knowledge are necessary. Second, why unify different types of knowledge distillation methods? Continuous-valued features are compared in the continuous space using Mean Square Error (MSE), while logits consider the shape of the overall distribution via Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence rather than just the difference in individual values. These two distillation methods have fundamentally different optimization objectives, which lead to varying effects on the gradients and update rules of the network parameters. Attempting to have the student network receive different types of supervision from the teacher in a single distillation process can result in unclear optimization objectives, making it difficult to achieve the optimal solution. Third, why unify different knowledge into logits? Features contain a large amount of information, and each element includes information on the input data. However, this information can be redundant or only indirectly related to the final task.

AFF can retain critical information across different scales while simplifying the computation process. Following this, we explore the knowledge distribution at intermediate layers by utilizing the Feature Distribution Prediction (FDP) module to estimate distribution parameters. This way, knowledge distillation within the intermediate layers can be conducted by implementing distribution-level constraints.

The results in Table 5 indicate that combining the two types of distillation methods can significantly enhance the performance of the student network, underscoring the importance of integrating knowledge from different layers. However, compared to the proposed UniKD, which conducts comprehensive and continuous knowledge distillation using a unified type of knowledge, the performance gap remains substantial.

Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE) aims to detect keypoints of an arbitrary unseen category in images, based on several provided examples of that category. This is a challenging task, as the limited data of unseen categories makes it difficult for models to generalize effectively. To address this challenge, previous methods typically train models on a set of predefined base categories with extensive annotations. In this work, we propose to harness rich knowledge in the off-the-shelf text-to-image diffusion model to effectively address CAPE, without training on carefully prepared base categories. To this end, we propose a Prompt Pose Matching (PPM) framework, which learns pseudo prompts corresponding to the keypoints in the provided few-shot examples via the text-to-image diffusion model. These learned pseudo prompts capture semantic information of keypoints, which can then be used to locate the same type of keypoints from images. We also design a Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) scheme, to further boost our PPM's performance.

While being effective, the construction of base categories requires collecting and labeling data of as many categories as possible, which can be labor-intensive and time-consuming. Also, relying solely on one or a few examples to learn for unseen categories, the model trained on base categories still struggles to generalize effectively. Existing efforts in this area [45,57] have shown that even with large-scale training, these methods may still yield unsatisfactory pose estimation results when tested on unseen categories (e.g., furniture and vehicle) that differ significantly from the base categories (e.g., face and human body).

In other words, for a text-to-image diffusion model to successfully create realistic images of an object, it must know what components make up this object and it also must understand the correct positions of these components. This concept is similarly reflected in [20]. Inspired by this insight, in this work, we propose to harness the power of text-to-image diffusion models to address the CAPE task that involves spatial composition reasoning, by only learning from few-shot examples of unseen categories.

To address this question, we delve deeper into the architecture of text-to-image diffusion models. In particular, we focus on the commonly-used cross-attention mechanism in text-to-image diffusion models, which facilities the visual-textual interactions in the text-to-image generation process. [20] has revealed that the cross-attention maps extracted from text-to-image diffusion models help to highlight the text-related regions of the images. As illustrated in the Fig. 3 (a), given an image of a bicycle and the text prompt \"saddle\", the cross-attention map highlights the saddle area. Similarly, if the text prompt is changed to \"front wheel\" or \"back wheel\", the corresponding regions are highlighted (see Fig. 3 b), showcasing the model's capability to perceive different parts of the object based on the given text input.

This paper aims to address the task of Class-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE). Unlike most pose estimation tasks that predict keypoints for a single known (seen) category, CAPE requires the model to efficiently generalize to novel categories, which have not only different appearances, but also varying numbers of keypoints. In CAPE, during training, we are given extensively labeled data of some predefined categories (called base categories). Here, we denote the data of base categories as $D_{\\mathrm{base}}$ . In $D_{\\mathrm{base}}$ , we use $I_{\\mathrm{base}}$ and $M_{\\mathrm{base}}$ to represent the image and the corresponding keypoint localization label, respectively. Following [57], we use the keypoint labels in heatmap format. For each image $I_{\\mathrm{base}}$ , its corresponding heatmap label $M_{\\mathrm{base}}$ contains multiple sub-labels, i.e., $M_{\\mathrm{base}} = \\{M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{1}, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{2}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{n}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{N}\\}$ where each sub-label represents the heatmap of one keypoint, and $N$ denotes the number of keypoints in the image. Previous methods [5, 28, 46, 57] generally train the model on $D_{\\mathrm{base}}$ and then test the model on novel categories to validate its generalization capacity. Before testing, for each unseen category, the model is provided with one or a few labeled examples, denoted as $D_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ , for few-shot learning. In $D_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ , we use $I_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ and $M_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ to denote the example image and its corresponding label. Similarly, $M_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ also contain multiple sub-labels for all keypoints, i.e., $M_{\\mathrm{exm}} = \\{M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{1}, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{2}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{n}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{N}\\}$ . During testing, based on the given few-shot examples $D_{\\mathrm{exm}}$ , the model is required to detect the corresponding keypoints of the same category for the unlabeled test images $I_{\\mathrm{test}}$ .

Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE) aims to detect keypoints of an arbitrary unseen category in images, based on several provided examples of that category. This is a challenging task, as the limited data of unseen categories makes it difficult for models to generalize effectively. To address this challenge, previous methods typically train models on a set of predefined base categories with extensive annotations. In this work, we propose to harness rich knowledge in the off-the-shelf text-to-image diffusion model to effectively address CAPE, without training on carefully prepared base categories. To this end, we propose a Prompt Pose Matching (PPM) framework, which learns pseudo prompts corresponding to the keypoints in the provided few-shot examples via the text-to-image diffusion model. These learned pseudo prompts capture semantic information of keypoints, which can then be used to locate the same type of keypoints from images.

While being effective, the construction of base categories requires collecting and labeling data of as many categories as possible, which can be labor-intensive and time-consuming. Also, relying solely on one or a few examples to learn for unseen categories, the model trained on base categories still struggles to generalize effectively. Existing efforts in this area [45,57] have shown that even with large-scale training, these methods may still yield unsatisfactory pose estimation results when tested on unseen categories (e.g., furniture and vehicle) that differ significantly from the base categories (e.g., face and human body).

In other words, for a text-to-image diffusion model to successfully create realistic images of an object, it must know what components make up this object and it also must understand the correct positions of these components. This concept is similarly reflected in [20]. Inspired by this insight, in this work, we propose to harness the power of text-to-image diffusion models to address the CAPE task that involves spatial composition reasoning, by only learning from few-shot examples of unseen categories. In this way, we may not need to carefully prepare labeled data of base categories but can still achieve good results.

To address this question, we delve deeper into the architecture of text-to-image diffusion models. In particular, we focus on the commonly-used cross-attention mechanism in text-to-image diffusion models, which facilities the visual-textual interactions in the text-to-image generation process. [20] has revealed that the cross-attention maps extracted from text-to-image diffusion models help to highlight the text-related regions of the images. As illustrated in the Fig. 3 (a), given an image of a bicycle and the text prompt \"saddle\", the cross-attention map highlights the saddle area. Similarly, if the text prompt is changed to \"front wheel\" or \"back wheel\", the corresponding regions are highlighted (see Fig. 3 b), showcasing the model's capability to perceive different parts of the object based on the given text input. This is because the diffusion model is trained on massive text-image pairs.

In this way, the found 'prompt' can serve as a bridge that builds image-to-image correspondences (see Fig. 1 b), thereby harnessing the knowledge in the diffusion model to address the CAPE task. Following this idea, an intuitive solution is to find an actual text prompt for each keypoint in the given examples.

As shown in Fig. 2 (a), Stable Diffusion mainly consists of five parts: image encoder, image decoder, text encoder, diffusion process, and reverse process. Given an image \\( I \\), the image is first mapped into a latent representation \\( Z \\) through an image encoder. Simultaneously, a text prompt \\( T \\) is transformed into an embedding \\( P \\) using a text encoder. The diffusion process is then applied to \\( Z \\), which introduces noise over \\( t \\) steps to produce a noisy representation \\( Z_{t} \\). Then, a reverse process incorporating a U-Net [41] takes in \\( Z_{t} \\) and \\( P \\) to denoise \\( Z_{t} \\) back to the clean \\( Z \\). Finally, the image decoder reconstructs the image \\( I \\) from \\( Z \\).

This paper aims to address the task of Class-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE). Unlike most pose estimation tasks that predict keypoints for a single known (seen) category, CAPE requires the model to efficiently generalize to novel categories, which have not only different appearances, but also varying numbers of keypoints. In CAPE, during training, we are given extensively labeled data of some predefined categories (called base categories). Here, we denote the data of base categories as \\( D_{\\mathrm{base}} \\). In \\( D_{\\mathrm{base}} \\), we use \\( I_{\\mathrm{base}} \\) and \\( M_{\\mathrm{base}} \\) to represent the image and the corresponding keypoint localization label, respectively. Following [57], we use the keypoint labels in heatmap format. For each image \\( I_{\\mathrm{base}} \\), its corresponding heatmap label \\( M_{\\mathrm{base}} \\) contains multiple sub-labels, i.e., \\( M_{\\mathrm{base}} = \\{M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{1}, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{2}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{n}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{base}}^{N}\\} \\) where each sub-label represents the heatmap of one keypoint, and \\( N \\) denotes the number of keypoints in the image. Previous methods [5, 28, 46, 57] generally train the model on \\( D_{\\mathrm{base}} \\) and then test the model on novel categories to validate its generalization capacity. Before testing, for each unseen category, the model is provided with one or a few labeled examples, denoted as \\( D_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\), for few-shot learning. In \\( D_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\), we use \\( I_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\) and \\( M_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\) to denote the example image and its corresponding label. Similarly, \\( M_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\) also contain multiple sub-labels for all keypoints, i.e., \\( M_{\\mathrm{exm}} = \\{M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{1}, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{2}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{n}, \\dots, M_{\\mathrm{exm}}^{N}\\} \\). During testing, based on the given few-shot examples \\( D_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\), the model is required to detect the corresponding keypoints of the same category for the unlabeled test images \\( I_{\\mathrm{test}} \\).

We observe that the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net of Stable Diffusion effectively captures the correspondence between the image and text. For example, as shown in Fig. 3 (a), when feeding an image of a bicycle into Stable Diffusion and providing the input text \"saddle\", the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net highlights the corresponding saddle region, which occurs in a semantically consistent manner. Even when different images are fed into Stable Diffusion, if we use the same text prompt (e.g., \"saddle\"), the resulting cross-attention maps will consistently highlight corresponding regions, as shown in Fig. 3 (c). In light of this, given few-shot examples \\( D_{\\mathrm{exm}} \\) of an unseen category, if we can identify the text prompt \\( T \\) corresponding to a particular keypoint of this category, the diffusion model could also use this text prompt \\( T \\) to find the corresponding keypoints in test images \\( I_{\\mathrm{test}} \\) via cross-attention maps.

Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE) aims to detect keypoints of an arbitrary unseen category in images, based on several provided examples of that category. This is a challenging task, as the limited data of unseen categories makes it difficult for models to generalize effectively. To address this challenge, previous methods typically train models on a set of predefined base categories with extensive annotations. In this work, we propose to harness rich knowledge in the off-the-shelf text-to-image diffusion model to effectively address CAPE, without training on carefully prepared base categories. To this end, we propose a Prompt Pose Matching (PPM) framework, which learns pseudo prompts corresponding to the keypoints in the provided few-shot examples via the text-to-image diffusion model. These learned pseudo prompts capture semantic information of keypoints, which can then be used to locate the same type of keypoints from images. We also design a Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) scheme, to further boost our PPM's performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of our approach. + +Keywords: Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation $\cdot$ Diffusion Model + +# 1 Introduction + +Pose estimation [2, 25, 66] is one of the fundamental tasks in computer vision and has a wide range of real-world applications including AR/VR [3, 13, 23], autonomous driving [10, 17, 63], human care [14, 34, 58], scene understanding [15, 32, 56], etc. It aims to estimate the locations of keypoints that are pre-defined by humans. In the field of pose estimation, there exist diverse categories such as human body, human face, furniture, vehicles, etc. While existing methods [47, 65] have achieved notably good performance on these categories, they typically focus on training deep neural networks to handle a single category only, which + +hinders their generalization to real-world scenarios that may contain diverse unseen categories. + +To address the generalization problem, recent research [57] has proposed the task of Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE). In CAPE, before testing, the model is given one or a few examples (i.e., few-shot examples) of an arbitrary unseen category. After learning on the given few-shot examples, the model is expected to perform inferences on test images of this unseen category, aiming to find pixel locations in test images that share the same semantic meanings and structural characteristics as the keypoints in the provided few-shot example images. In this way, the model can achieve category-agnostic pose estimation with only few-shot examples. + +Considering the limited information provided by few-shot examples, existing CAPE methods generally [5,28,45,46,57] resort to external knowledge to compensate for the scarcity of pose data. They typically train the model on a set of predefined base categories, and then adapt the model to unseen categories based on the given few-shot examples. While being effective, the construction of base categories requires collecting and labeling data of as many categories as possible, which can be labor-intensive and time-consuming. Also, relying solely on one or a few examples to learn for unseen categories, the model trained on base categories still struggles to generalize effectively. Existing efforts in this area [45,57] have shown that even with large-scale training, these methods may still yield unsatisfactory pose estimation results when tested on unseen categories (e.g., furniture and vehicle) that differ significantly from the base categories (e.g., face and human body). These limitations spark the need for a data-efficient and generalization-effective method for CAPE. + +Recently, text-to-image diffusion models [31, 36, 43], such as Stable Diffusion [40], have shown impressive performance in generating photo-realistic images in response to user-defined prompts. Given that existing text-to-image diffusion models can generate high-fidelity images that are visually reasonable, we believe that they contain a wealth of knowledge about the object's semantics, structures, compositions, and spatial relations. In other words, for a text-to-image diffusion model to successfully create realistic images of an object, it must know what components make up this object and it also must understand the correct positions of these components. This concept is similarly reflected in [20]. Inspired by this insight, in this work, we propose to harness the power of text-to-image diffusion models to address the CAPE task that involves spatial composition reasoning, by only learning from few-shot examples of unseen categories. In this way, we may not need to carefully prepare labeled data of base categories but can still achieve good results. However, it is a non-trivial problem, as the text-to-image diffusion model focuses on generating images from texts, lacking a mechanism to estimate keypoint locations for images, thus leading to the challenge in utilizing the potential benefits of the diffusion model. + +To tackle the above challenge, in this paper, we consider the CAPE task from the perspective of regarding this task as establishing spatial correspondences (mappings) between example images and test images, which is shown in + +![](images/10855910819298485b14fc0173920aabe10303bd87d285770ac9e1fa1f95a203.jpg) +(a) + +![](images/2580be82bd95f089d573fcdfc3cecca7b0470506e16ebe8570702ad808fc8a11.jpg) +(b) +Fig. 1: (a) The CAPE task can be regarded as establishing spatial (keypoint) correspondences between example images and test images. (b) To address CAPE, our PPM learns prompts that serve as bridges to build these correspondences. + +Fig. 1 (a). This perspective inspires us a feasible way to leverage text-to-image diffusion models to address CAPE, raising a question: Given that the text-to-image diffusion model essentially builds the correspondences (mappings) between texts and images, can we use such text-image correspondences in diffusion models to establish image-image spatial correspondences for CAPE? To address this question, we delve deeper into the architecture of text-to-image diffusion models. In particular, we focus on the commonly-used cross-attention mechanism in text-to-image diffusion models, which facilities the visual-textual interactions in the text-to-image generation process. [20] has revealed that the cross-attention maps extracted from text-to-image diffusion models help to highlight the text-related regions of the images. As illustrated in the Fig. 3 (a), given an image of a bicycle and the text prompt "saddle", the cross-attention map highlights the saddle area. Similarly, if the text prompt is changed to "front wheel" or "back wheel", the corresponding regions are highlighted (see Fig. 3 b), showcasing the model's capability to perceive different parts of the object based on the given text input. This is because the diffusion model is trained on massive text-image pairs. After its training, the cross-attention mechanism in the diffusion model is able to understand the structural and spatial information of object compositions in a joint visual-textual manner. + +Motivated by this observation, we propose to extend the capabilities of text-to-image diffusion models beyond image generation to address the practical CAPE problem through the following approach: In CAPE, before testing on images of an unseen category, we are given only one or a few labeled examples of this category. If we can find out what text 'prompt' corresponds to the particular keypoint in the given example image, then the found 'prompt' can be used to drive the text-to-image diffusion model to locate (highlight) a semantically corresponding keypoint in the test image. In this way, the found 'prompt' can serve as a bridge that builds image-to-image correspondences (see Fig. 1 b), thereby harnessing the knowledge in the diffusion model to address the CAPE task. Following this idea, an intuitive solution is to find an actual text prompt for each keypoint in the given examples. However, the text descriptions of image keypoints are usually not easy to obtain [39], since many keypoints (e.g., keypoints in Figs. 1, 6 and 7) can be difficult to describe in texts even for human beings. + +To overcome these challenges, in this paper, we propose a novel framework, which we call Prompt Pose Matching (PPM), to find suitable prompt representations by learning pseudo prompts. Specifically, given few-shot examples of an unseen category, PPM uses the labeled examples to learn (optimize) pseudo prompts, to render them to be semantically aligned with the corresponding keypoints of this unseen category. Learning from the few-shot examples, the pseudo prompts can serve as bridges to find the corresponding keypoints in the test images via cross-attention maps of the diffusion model, thereby establishing the required keypoint correspondences between the example images and the test images. In this way, PPM can work solely based on the few-shot examples of unseen categories, even without training on base categories. Experiments on MP-100 [57] benchmark, which contains over 20K instances covering 100 categories, demonstrate that our PPM solely learning on few-shot examples, performs better than previous methods that require training on extensive data of base categories. + +Beyond this core technical contribution, we also design a scheme, which we call Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) for improved keypoint identification of the PPM. Given that pseudo prompts learned from few-shot examples are category-specific (i.e., customized to the unseen category), they may overlook common pose knowledge shared across different categories, such as the common positional characteristics of keypoints (e.g., keypoints tend to be located at important positions, like corners, edges, or other semantically meaningful regions, regardless of the object's category). Therefore, we further introduce a CPT scheme to acquire a category-shared pseudo prompt to enrich the prompt representation for better keypoint localization. Using CPT, the proposed PPM yields further improved performance, significantly outperforming previous methods. + +# 2 Related Work + +Pose Estimation endeavors to localize semantic or interest keypoints, such as human body parts [1,25,50], facial landmarks [2,27,48], hand keypoints [7,8,66], and vehicle poses [38,44,64] from the input data. It has evolved into a prominent task in the realm of computer vision. Existing methods can be categorized into two main types: regression-based methods [4,11,51,60] and heatmap-based methods [29, 35, 49, 61]. Regression-based methods exhibit high efficiency for implementation on applications. However, these approaches inherently output singular 2D coordinates for each keypoint, neglecting to consider the surrounding area of the keypoint. To address this limitation, heatmap-based approaches have been introduced to localize keypoints through probabilistic heatmaps rather than fixed coordinates. In this paper, our method is based on heatmaps. + +Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation aims to develop a pose estimation model that can detect the pose of various object categories, given few-shot examples as reference. Previous methods [5,28,45,46,57] typically train the model on a set of predefined base categories, and then adapt it on the given few-shot examples of unseen categories. In this work, we handle this task from a novel perspective that harnesses the knowledge within the off-the-shelf Stable Diffusion + +![](images/1faa880220f82b94eb76329824046cb22cabac15f2e4a0ea4b025e9e7fafd445.jpg) +Fig. 2: (a) Overall architecture of Stable Diffusion.

Text-to-Image Diffusion Models [31, 36, 40, 43] are generation models that employ diffusion techniques. They are primarily utilized for generating detailed images based on textual descriptions. Recently, text-to-image diffusion models have made striking advancements across a spectrum of domains such as image inpainting [55], image editing [18], 3D scene understanding [26], semantic segmentation [20], visual tracking [62], object counting [16], and various interdisciplinary applications [30]. Their versatility and efficacy are reshaping the landscape of these fields. In this paper, we are the first to study the harness of text-to-image diffusion models for category-agnostic pose estimation. + +# 3 Preliminary + +In this paper, we propose a novel framework PPM to harness the knowledge in text-to-image diffusion models for CAPE. Our PPM has good extensibility, which can be applied to various text-to-image diffusion models. For clarity, in the main paper, we use Stable Diffusion [40] as an example to illustrate our framework. Below, we briefly review Stable Diffusion to facilitate a better understanding of our method. + +Architecture. As shown in Fig. 2 (a), Stable Diffusion mainly consists of five parts: image encoder, image decoder, text encoder, diffusion process, and reverse process. Given an image $I$ , the image is first mapped into a latent representation $Z$ through an image encoder. Simultaneously, a text prompt $T$ is transformed into an embedding $P$ using a text encoder. The diffusion process is then applied to $Z$ , which introduces noise over $t$ steps to produce a noisy representation $Z_{t}$ . Then, a reverse process incorporating a U-Net [41] takes in $Z_{t}$ and $P$ to denoise $Z_{t}$ back to the clean $Z$ . Finally, the image decoder reconstructs the image $I$ from $Z$ . After training on a vast amount of image-text pairs, the image encoder and the diffusion process are discarded, and the remaining parts can be regarded as a text-to-image generation model, as illustrated in Fig. 2 (b). During inference, we can input a random Gaussian noise into the generation model to generate a text-relevant image. This works because during training, the noisy $Z_{t}$ can be very close to the pure Gaussian noise after many steps of the diffusion process. + +Diffusion Training. As for training the diffusion model, the image encoder, the image decoder, and the text encoder are off-the-shelf frozen modules. The diffusion process does not involve learnable parameters. Therefore, it solely focuses on training the UNet (in the reverse process) to generate text-relevant visual content by denoising. In the diffusion process, noise $\epsilon$ is added to the latent image representation $Z$ , resulting in $Z_{t}$ . The training objective is to predict the added noise $\epsilon$ from $Z_{t}$ , conditioned on $P$ . This is formulated as: + +$$ +L _ {\mathrm {d m}} = \mathbb {E} _ {\mathcal {E} _ {t} (I), \mathcal {E} _ {t} (T), \epsilon \sim \mathcal {N} (0, 1), t} \left[ \| \epsilon - \epsilon_ {\theta} \left(Z _ {t}, P, t\right) \| _ {2} ^ {2} \right], \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{E}_i$ is the image encoder, $\mathcal{E}_t$ represents the text encoder, $t$ denotes the time step in the diffusion process, and $\epsilon_{\theta}$ is the UNet in the reverse process. Through this training approach, the connection between textual information $P$ and image information $Z_{t}$ is established within the UNet. + +# 4 Method + +Problem Definition. This paper aims to address the task of Class-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE). Unlike most pose estimation tasks that predict keypoints for a single known (seen) category, CAPE requires the model to efficiently generalize to novel categories, which have not only different appearances, but also varying numbers of keypoints. In CAPE, during training, we are given extensively labeled data of some predefined categories (called base categories). Here, we denote the data of base categories as $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ . In $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ , we use $I_{\mathrm{base}}$ and $M_{\mathrm{base}}$ to represent the image and the corresponding keypoint localization label, respectively. Following [57], we use the keypoint labels in heatmap format. For each image $I_{\mathrm{base}}$ , its corresponding heatmap label $M_{\mathrm{base}}$ contains multiple sub-labels, i.e., $M_{\mathrm{base}} = \{M_{\mathrm{base}}^{1}, M_{\mathrm{base}}^{2}, \dots, M_{\mathrm{base}}^{n}, \dots, M_{\mathrm{base}}^{N}\}$ where each sub-label represents the heatmap of one keypoint, and $N$ denotes the number of keypoints in the image. Previous methods [5, 28, 46, 57] generally train the model on $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ and then test the model on novel categories to validate its generalization capacity. Before testing, for each unseen category, the model is provided with one or a few labeled examples, denoted as $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ , for few-shot learning. In $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ , we use $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ and $M_{\mathrm{exm}}$ to denote the example image and its corresponding label. Similarly, $M_{\mathrm{exm}}$ also contain multiple sub-labels for all keypoints, i.e., $M_{\mathrm{exm}} = \{M_{\mathrm{exm}}^{1}, M_{\mathrm{exm}}^{2}, \dots, M_{\mathrm{exm}}^{n}, \dots, M_{\mathrm{exm}}^{N}\}$ . During testing, based on the given few-shot examples $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ , the model is required to detect the corresponding keypoints of the same category for the unlabeled test images $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ . Notably, since different object categories have varying numbers of keypoints, $N$ may change accordingly based on the category. However, within the same category, all samples including example images and test images share the same number of keypoints. + +In this paper, we propose a novel PPM framework that leverages the off-the-shelf Stable Diffusion to build the spatial (keypoint) correspondences between example images $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ and text images $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ , thus addressing the CAPE task without the need of training on carefully prepared base categories $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ . Below, we present our PPM in detail. + +![](images/db9cace75f9d24fcd664ef80956c1d6dd5750c5e4688d830051cab5a69f775f0.jpg) +Fig. 3: (a) The architecture of Stable Diffusion for extracting cross-attention maps, which highlight the area that corresponds semantically to the input text.

After learning on $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ , our PPM can be directly used for inference on $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ , without training on $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ . + +Inspired by the observation [20] that the off-the-shelf Stable Diffusion encompasses a wealth of knowledge that should be useful for understanding the object semantics in images, our PPM is designed to address CAPE by leveraging such Stable Diffusion embedded knowledge. To do so, we explore the cross-attention map in Stable Diffusion as a handle. We observe that the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net of Stable Diffusion effectively captures the correspondence between the image and text. For example, as shown in Fig. 3 (a), when feeding an image of a bicycle into Stable Diffusion and providing the input text "saddle", the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net highlights the corresponding saddle region, which occurs in a semantically consistent manner. Even when different images are fed into Stable Diffusion, if we use the same text prompt (e.g., "saddle"), the resulting cross-attention maps will consistently highlight corresponding regions, as shown in Fig. 3 (c). In light of this, given few-shot examples $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ of an unseen category, if we can identify the text prompt $T$ corresponding to a particular keypoint of this category, the diffusion model could also use this text prompt $T$ to find the corresponding keypoints in test images $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ via cross-attention maps. However, since the actual text prompts of keypoints can be hard to obtain, we turn to learn a pseudo prompt $P$ in the embedding space, aiming to properly represent the semantics of the particular keypoint. Based on this idea, our PPM framework is designed to handle the CAPE task via prompt optimization. + +Overview. As illustrated in Fig. 4, our PPM involves two stages. In the first stage (prompt optimization), for the $n$ -th keypoint in the given example image + +![](images/cb7cfd5dc18b013aecaacb86449c39f5e7034c2745b7c57b549269da49d42cf0.jpg) +Fig. 4: Overview of our Prompt Pose Matching (PPM) framework. + +![](images/5a8a28f96bc3588c7017b53b1a9fdbf937fbb2ffd2e13a7f38a79d2cb25491b9.jpg) + +$I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ , we seek to learn a pseudo prompt $P^n$ that properly represents the semantics of this keypoint, by using the keypoint heatmap label $M_{\mathrm{exm}}^n$ to constrain the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net of Stable Diffusion. For image $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ with $N$ keypoints, we learn $N$ pseudo prompts $\{P^1, P^2, \dots, P^n, \dots, P^N\}$ respectively. In the second stage (inference), the $N$ learned pseudo prompts from the first stage are kept fixed. With the help of these $N$ learned prompts, $N$ cross-attention maps are computed for the test image $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ . In each computed cross-attention map, the location with the highest attention value indicates the corresponding keypoint location of the test image $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ . In this way, we use the learned pseudo prompts to bridge the keypoint correspondences between example images $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ and text images $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ , which subtly harnesses Stable Diffusion to address CAPE. Next, we introduce the two stages of our PPM. + +Prompt Optimization Stage. In this stage, we aim to learn pseudo prompts to represent the semantics of the keypoints from few-shot examples $D_{\mathrm{exm}}$ . Taking the learning for the $n$ -th keypoint as an example, at the beginning, the pseudo prompt $P^n \in \mathbb{R}^{1 \times 1 \times c}$ is randomly initialized, where $c$ is the channel number of the embedding space. Also, we are given a test-time example image $I_{\mathrm{exm}} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 3}$ and the $n$ -th keypoint heatmap label $M_{\mathrm{exm}}^n \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 1}$ . As shown in Fig. 4 (left), we input the prompt $P^n$ along with the example image $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ into the stable diffusion to obtain the cross-attention map $M^n$ . Specifically, the image encoder and the diffusion process of Stable Diffusion convert the image $I_{\mathrm{exm}}$ into the noisy latent representation $Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}$ . Then, $Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}$ and $P^n$ are fed into the U-Net of the reverse process. At each layer of the U-Net, a cross-attention map can be obtained, which calculates the similarity (correlation) between $Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}$ and $P^n$ . More specifically, for the $n$ -th keypoint, the cross-attention map at the $l$ -th layer in the U-Net can be obtained as: + +$$ +M _ {l} ^ {n} = \operatorname {S i g m o i d} \left(A v g \left(\frac {F _ {Z _ {t , \mathrm {e x m}}} * F _ {P ^ {n}} ^ {\top}}{\sqrt {d _ {l}}}\right)\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $F_{Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}}\in \mathbb{R}^{H_l\times W_l\times d_l}$ is the visual feature map, and $F_{P^n}\in \mathbb{R}^{1\times 1\times d_l}$ is the prompt feature; $F_{Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}}$ and $F_{P^n}$ are obtained from $Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}$ and $P^n$ , respectively, + +via $F_{Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}} = \phi_l(Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}})$ and $F_{P^n} = \psi_l(P^n)$ , where $\phi_l$ and $\psi_l$ denote the linear mappings in the attention module at the $l$ -th layer of the U-Net; $H_l$ , $W_l$ , and $d_l$ respectively represent the height, width, and channel number of the visual feature map at the $l$ -th layer; $Avg$ denotes the average along the channel dimension; Sigmiod is the normalization that transforms the values into [0,1]. In Eqn. 2, the prompt feature $F_{P^n}$ is multiplied with each pixel-level visual feature of the feature map $F_{Z_{t,\mathrm{exm}}}$ , and thus if the prompt feature and visual feature are semantically similar (correlated), the attention value at the corresponding pixel will be high, thereby highlighting the prompt-related regions. We denote the $l$ -th layer cross-attention map as $M_l$ , where $M_l \in \mathbb{R}^{H_l \times W_l \times 1}$ . + +To incorporate cross-attention maps from different layers, as shown in Fig. 4 (left), we average cross-attention maps across the U-Net layers, to obtain: + +$$ +M ^ {n} = \frac {1}{L} \sum_ {l = 1} ^ {L} M _ {l} ^ {n}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $L$ denotes the number of layers in U-Net. Note that when averaging, we first use the bilinear interpolation to upsample all the cross-attention maps into the original image scale $H \times W$ . Thus, we can obtain $M^n \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 1}$ . + +After obtaining the cross-attention map $M^n$ for the $n$ -th keypoint of the example image, given the keypoint heatmap label $M_{\mathrm{exm}}^n$ of this image, we calculate the L2 loss between $M^n$ and $M_{\mathrm{exm}}^n$ , and use the loss to optimize the pseudo prompt $P^n$ , ensuring that $P^n$ can drive Stable Diffusion to highlight the specific keypoint region. The optimization loss can be formulated as: + +$$ +L _ {\mathrm {e x m}} = \left\| M ^ {n} - M _ {\mathrm {e x m}} ^ {n} \right\| ^ {2} + L _ {\mathrm {d m}}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\| \cdot \| ^2$ denotes the $L_{2}$ distance. The second items $L_{\mathrm{dm}}$ is the diffusion model's loss function (Eq. 1). We use this loss to keep the learned prompt understandable by Stable Diffusion. After optimization, we can obtain a learned pseudo prompt $P^n$ that represents the semantics of the $n$ -th keypoint. By learning from $n = 1$ to $n = N$ , we can obtain $N$ learned pseudo-prompts. Not that the loss is calculated across all the given few-shot examples by averaging. That is, for a novel category ( $N$ keypoints) with multiple labeled examples (i.e., more than 1-shot), we still obtain $N$ learned pseudo-prompts by averaging across the examples. + +Next, we describe how to use the learned prompt $P^n$ to conduct keypoint localization for the test image $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ (i.e., the inference stage). + +Inference Stage. To build the image-to-image correspondences for CAPE, we use the prompt $P^n$ learned from example images, to find the corresponding keypoint in each test image. As shown in Fig. 4 (right), given a test image $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ , we feed $P^n$ and $I_{\mathrm{test}}$ into Stable Diffusion to compute the cross-attention map. The highlighted region in the output cross-attention map denotes the detected corresponding keypoint region. As $P^n$ is learned from the keypoint regions in the example images using the knowledge of Stable Diffusion, the $P^n$ -activated keypoint regions in the test images share the same semantic meaning and structural characteristics as those in the example images. Finally, we locate the keypoint by + +![](images/1293bed48f61054145703d1b1da8bf79c1d7a9ffaa40dab5fe38ed670a467784.jpg) +Fig. 5: Illustration of our PPM with Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT). $\bar{P}$ and $P^k$ denote the category-shared prompt and category-specific prompt, respectively. $\varPhi$ denotes a light-weight MLP. + +finding the position with maximum value in the cross-attention map, as shown in Fig. 4 (right). In this way, based on all learned prompts $\{P^1, P^2, \dots, P^n, \dots, P^N\}$ , we can estimate the location of all keypoints for test images of the same category. + +# 4.2 Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) + +Though keypoints of different categories show various characteristics, there can be some common knowledge shared by keypoints of different categories, which could help for keypoint localization (e.g., keypoints tend to be located at "important" locations, like center points, corners, edges, etc.). In light of this, we propose to capture common knowledge by additionally learning a category-shared prompt. Specifically, we propose a Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) scheme, to enable our framework to learn one category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ from data of base categories $D_{\mathrm{base}}$ provided in the CAPE task. Our goal is to train this category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ on each keypoint of every category from base categories, thus enabling $\bar{P}$ to acquire category-agnostic knowledge. This knowledge can equally benefit pose estimation for novel categories. + +To disentangle the shared knowledge and the specific knowledge during the training on base categories, we slightly modify the PPM framework. We assume that across all categories in the base-category data, there are a total of $K$ keypoints. To represent these $K$ keypoints precisely, we require $K$ category-specific prompts, denoted as $\{P^1, P^2, \dots, P^k, \dots, P^K\}$ . As shown in Fig. 5, before sending it into the Stable Diffusion, we concatenate the learnable category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ with the learnable category-specific prompt $P^k$ , and then pass the combined prompt through a light-weight MLP [6] (two layers) to reduce the channel dimension, aiming to ensure compatibility with the Stable Diffusion. Specifically, given $I_{\mathrm{base}}$ (the image from base categories) and $M_{\mathrm{base}}^k$ (the corresponding heatmap label of the $k$ -th keypoint), the training loss $L$ can be calculated as: + +$$ +M ^ {k} = f _ {S D} \left(I _ {\text {b a s e}}, \Phi ([ \bar {P}, P ^ {k} ])\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +L _ {\text {b a s e}} = \left\| M ^ {k} - M _ {\text {b a s e}} ^ {k} \right\| ^ {2} + L _ {\mathrm {d m}}, \tag {6} +$$ + +where $M^k$ is the output cross-attention map; $f_{SD}$ denotes the Stable Diffusion which treats $I_{\mathrm{base}}$ and $\varPhi([\bar{P},P^{k}])$ as two inputs; $\varPhi$ denotes the MLP; $\bar{P}$ and $P^k$ + +represent the category-shared prompt and the category-specific prompt respectively. As shown in Fig. 5, we use the loss in Eqn. 6 to optimize the category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ , category-specific prompt $P^k$ , and MLP $\varPhi$ , where the Stable Diffusion is kept frozen. During this training process, the (one) category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ and the MLP $\varPhi$ are trained on all keypoints of the base categories, while the category-specific prompt $P^k$ is independently trained for each keypoint of each base category. Thus, after training on $K$ base-category keypoints, we will get $K$ learned category-specific prompts $\{P^1, P^2, \dots, P^K\}$ and only one learned category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ . In this disentangled learning way, $\bar{P}$ learns the common knowledge of keypoint localization, $P^k$ learns the specific knowledge, and $\varPhi$ learns how to merge the common knowledge and specific knowledge. As each learned $P^k$ is specific to the keypoint of base categories, we discard all the learned $P^k$ , but introduce the learned $\bar{P}$ and the learned $\varPhi$ into our PPM framework to help to enhance the category-specific pseudo prompt $P^n$ learned from few-show examples of unseen categories. + +# 4.3 Training and Testing + +As for PPM without CPT, we do not use data of based categories. Given few-shot examples of an unseen category, for each keypoint of this category, we randomly initialize a pseudo prompt $P^n$ and use the labeled examples to optimize $P^n$ . Then during testing, we use the learned $P^n$ to locate the corresponding keypoint for test images. + +As for PPM with CPT, it involves training on base categories. During training on base categories, we use labeled data of base categories to train a category-shared prompt $\bar{P}$ and a MLP $\varPhi$ . Then, we initialize the pseudo prompt $P^n$ for learning on few-shot examples. We concatenate the learnable $P^n$ with the learned (frozen) category-shared $\bar{P}$ using the learned (frozen) MLP $\varPhi$ , to enhance the prompt representation. We follow the same procedures of PPM without CPT to optimize $P^n$ on few-shot examples. Finally, during testing, we still concatenate the learned $P^n$ with the learned $\bar{P}$ using the learned MLP $\varPhi$ , to produce the enhanced prompt for inference on test images. + +# 5 Experiments + +Dataset and Metric. The majority of pose estimation datasets are not suitable for the CAPE task, since they predominantly consist of objects belonging to a single category. Following prior CAPE research [57], we evaluate our approach on the benchmark MP-100 [57], which is composed of many popular 2D pose estimation datasets, including COCO [25], 300W [42], AFLW [22], OneHand10K [52], DeepFasion2 [9], MacaquePose [24], Vinegar Fly [33], Desert Locust [12], CUB200 [53], CarFusion [37], AnimalWeb [19], and Keypoint-5 [54]. In total, MP-100 covers eight super-categories (i.e., human hand, human face, human body, animal face, animal body, clothes, furniture, and vehicle) and 100 sub-categories (e.g., + +bus, sofa, bed, and skirt, etc), providing a very comprehensive evaluation platform. The MP-100 benchmark is organized into training, validation, and testing sets, comprising categories without overlapping, thus facilitating the evaluation of models for CAPE. On this benchmark, we use the standard metric of PCK (Probability of Correct Keypoint) [59] with a threshold of 0.2 to assess the algorithm's performance, following previous work [45, 57]. + +Parameter Setting. The training is conducted on two NVIDIA RTX 3090 GPUs with a batch size of four in each GPU. During training in CPT, we adopt the Adam optimizer [21] with a learning rate of $5e - 4$ . During the test-time optimization on few-shot examples, the learning rate is set to $2e - 3$ . In the diffusion process of Stable Diffusion, we use $t = 10$ to obtain $z^t$ . + +Experiment Settings. In CAPE, there are two generalization settings: (1) Cross Super-Category Generalization and (2) Cross Sub-Category Generalization. In Cross Super-Category Generalization, the generalization performance is evaluated based on 8 super-categories, where 6 for train, 1 for val, and 1 for test. In Cross Sub-Category Generalization, the evaluation is conducted based on 100 sub-categories, where 70 for train, 10 for val, and 20 for test. Besides, there are also two few-shot settings: (1) 1-shot and (2) 5-shot, which represent the number of few-shot examples. As existing methods [5,28,45,46,57] conduct experiments under three scenarios: Cross Super-Category Generalization (1-shot), Cross Sub-Category Generalization (1-shot), and Cross Sub-Category Generalization (5-shot), for fair comparisons, we follow them to conduct experiments under the same 3 scenarios. + +Table 1: Results in the setting of Cross Super-Category Generalization (1-shot). $\checkmark$ and $\times$ denote use or not use of base categories. + +

+ +# 5.1 Quantitative Results + +Cross Super-Category Generalization Results. In MP-100 dataset, there are eight super-categories. We follow [45,57] to undertake a cross super-category pose estimation evaluation on the MP-100 benchmark. Specifically, the model is trained and validated on six and one super-categories, and performance is evaluated on the remaining one super-category. For fair comparisons, we follow previous work [45,57] to evaluate the generalization to human body, human face, vehicle, and furniture, respectively. + +As shown in Tab. 1, the performance of our proposed PPM, even with no base categories, surpasses that of previous methods trained on base categories, clearly demonstrating the effectiveness of our framework. We can see that previous methods get suboptimal performances. This could be attributed to the significant divergence between training categories and the testing one, which hinders the generalization of methods that highly rely on knowledge from the training base categories. In contrast, our approach leverages the wealth of knowledge within the Stable Diffusion model to mitigate overfitting to the training categories, thus achieving a significant performance improvement over prior methods (e.g., on furniture, we outperform [45] by $8.1\%$ ). It is noteworthy that even using PPM only, our method can significantly outperform existing methods, and with the addition of CPT, the performance of our method is further boosted, which demonstrates the effect of our method. + +Table 2: Results in the setting of Cross Sub-Category Generalization. + +

+ +Cross Sub-Category Generalization Results. To further assess generalization capability to unseen sub-categories, following [45, 57], we evaluate our framework against previous methods under two few-shot settings: 1-shot and 5-shot, which are shown in Tab. 2. The evaluation is conducted on five different train/val/test category splits for a comprehensive evaluation. In both 1-shot and 5-shot settings, we show the results of each split and the mean results averaged over all the five splits. From Tab. 2, we can see: (1) in the absence of CPT, our PPM, even using no training data of base categories, can outperform previous methods trained on base categories across all splits and few-shot settings. (2) When using PPM equipped with CPT, our method achieves further enhanced performance and significantly surpasses existing methods, which demonstrates the effectiveness of CPT. + +# 5.2 Qualitative Results + +In Fig. 6, we qualitatively compare the generalization ability of our method with existing approaches. We can observe that when the few-shot example largely differs from the test images in terms of viewpoint or appearance, our method still performs robustly and generates predictions very close to the ground-truth labels.

In our PPM framework, we integrate cross-attention maps across different layers. In this study, we explore the impact of incorporating multi-layer cross-attention maps on the overall performance of the framework. For comparison, we evaluate the performance of cross-attention maps at each single layer. Because of the limited space, in Tab. 3, we only present the best result among all single-layer cross-attention maps. We can see that the integration of cross-attention maps across different layers shows an obvious performance advantage, even compared to the best-performing single-layer cross-attention map.

Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE) aims to detect keypoints of an arbitrary unseen category in images, based on several provided examples of that category. This is a challenging task, as the limited data of unseen categories makes it difficult for models to generalize effectively. To address this challenge, previous methods typically train models on a set of predefined base categories with extensive annotations. In this work, we propose to harness rich knowledge in the off-the-shelf text-to-image diffusion model to effectively address CAPE, without training on carefully prepared base categories. To this end, we propose a Prompt Pose Matching (PPM) framework, which learns pseudo prompts corresponding to the keypoints in the provided few-shot examples via the text-to-image diffusion model. These learned pseudo prompts capture semantic information of keypoints, which can then be used to locate the same type of keypoints from images. We also design a Category-shared Prompt Training (CPT) scheme, to further boost our PPM's performance.

They typically train the model on a set of predefined base categories, and then adapt the model to unseen categories based on the given few-shot examples. While being effective, the construction of base categories requires collecting and labeling data of as many categories as possible, which can be labor-intensive and time-consuming. Also, relying solely on one or a few examples to learn for unseen categories, the model trained on base categories still struggles to generalize effectively. Existing efforts in this area [45,57] have shown that even with large-scale training, these methods may still yield unsatisfactory pose estimation results when tested on unseen categories (e.g., furniture and vehicle) that differ significantly from the base categories (e.g., face and human body). These limitations spark the need for a data-efficient and generalization-effective method for CAPE." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 423, + 482, + 628 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 423, + 482, + 628 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 423, + 482, + 628 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Recently, text-to-image diffusion models [31, 36, 43], such as Stable Diffusion [40], have shown impressive performance in generating photo-realistic images in response to user-defined prompts.

In other words, for a text-to-image diffusion model to successfully create realistic images of an object, it must know what components make up this object and it also must understand the correct positions of these components. This concept is similarly reflected in [20]. Inspired by this insight, in this work, we propose to harness the power of text-to-image diffusion models to address the CAPE task that involves spatial composition reasoning, by only learning from few-shot examples of unseen categories. In this way, we may not need to carefully prepare labeled data of base categories but can still achieve good results.

To address this question, we delve deeper into the architecture of text-to-image diffusion models. In particular, we focus on the commonly-used cross-attention mechanism in text-to-image diffusion models, which facilities the visual-textual interactions in the text-to-image generation process. [20] has revealed that the cross-attention maps extracted from text-to-image diffusion models help to highlight the text-related regions of the images. As illustrated in the Fig. 3 (a), given an image of a bicycle and the text prompt \"saddle\", the cross-attention map highlights the saddle area. Similarly, if the text prompt is changed to \"front wheel\" or \"back wheel\", the corresponding regions are highlighted (see Fig. 3 b), showcasing the model's capability to perceive different parts of the object based on the given text input. This is because the diffusion model is trained on massive text-image pairs. After its training, the cross-attention mechanism in the diffusion model is able to understand the structural and spatial information of object compositions in a joint visual-textual manner." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 498, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 498, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 498, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Motivated by this observation, we propose to extend the capabilities of text-to-image diffusion models beyond image generation to address the practical CAPE problem through the following approach: In CAPE, before testing on images of an unseen category, we are given only one or a few labeled examples of this category. If we can find out what text 'prompt' corresponds to the particular keypoint in the given example image, then the found 'prompt' can be used to drive the text-to-image diffusion model to locate (highlight) a semantically corresponding keypoint in the test image. In this way, the found 'prompt' can serve as a bridge that builds image-to-image correspondences (see Fig. 1 b), thereby harnessing the knowledge in the diffusion model to address the CAPE task. Following this idea, an intuitive solution is to find an actual text prompt for each keypoint in the given examples.

We observe that the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net of Stable Diffusion effectively captures the correspondence between the image and text. For example, as shown in Fig. 3 (a), when feeding an image of a bicycle into Stable Diffusion and providing the input text \"saddle\", the cross-attention map extracted from the U-Net highlights the corresponding saddle region, which occurs in a semantically consistent manner. Even when different images are fed into Stable Diffusion, if we use the same text prompt (e.g., \"saddle\"), the resulting cross-attention maps will consistently highlight corresponding regions, as shown in Fig. 3 (c).

To further assess generalization capability to unseen sub-categories, following [45, 57], we evaluate our framework against previous methods under two few-shot settings: 1-shot and 5-shot, which are shown in Tab. 2. The evaluation is conducted on five different train/val/test category splits for a comprehensive evaluation. In both 1-shot and 5-shot settings, we show the results of each split and the mean results averaged over all the five splits. From Tab. 2, we can see: (1) in the absence of CPT, our PPM, even using no training data of base categories, can outperform previous methods trained on base categories across all splits and few-shot settings.

Creating a $360^{\\circ}$ parametric model of a human head is a very challenging task. While recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of leveraging synthetic data for building such parametric head models, their performance remains inadequate in crucial areas such as expression-driven animation, hairstyle editing, and text-based modifications. In this paper, we build a dataset of artist-designed high-fidelity human heads and propose to create a novel parametric 360-degree renderable parametric head model from it. Our scheme decouples the facial motion/shape and facial appearance, which are represented by a classic parametric 3D mesh model and an attached neural texture, respectively. We further propose a training method for decomposing hairstyle and facial appearance, allowing free-swapping of the hairstyle. A novel inversion fitting method is presented based on single image input with high generalization and fidelity. To the best of our knowledge, our model is the first parametric 3D full-head that achieves $360^{\\circ}$ free-view synthesis, image-based fitting, appearance editing, and animation within a single model.

The second routing is to learn neural heads from 3D models, which are scanned real faces [14,55,63,71] or models designed by artists [56, 59]. These methods can synthesize $360^{\\circ}$ high-quality renderings. However, the performance of motion animation and identity inversion is worse since too few 3D models are available for training.

The parametric transformation is learned from a large set of heads in diverse shapes, appearances, and expressions, which are represented by registered 3D polygonal mesh models. According to the properties of parametric transformation, 3DMM can be further divided into linear models and nonlinear models. For a linear 3DMM, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) [40] is commonly used to learn the linear mapping from the 3D vertices and texture space of the head model to a low-dimensional space [7,29,34,53,54,63,71]. Linear 3DMM conversion calculation is straightforward and is widely used in face alignment, face reconstruction, and other tasks. For a non-linear 3DMM, a neural network or other non-linear model is adopted to model the mapping [3, 10, 46, 49-51], which is more powerful in representing detailed shape and appearance than linear mapping. 3DMM is widely used in 3D face reconstruction [62, 72, 73], generation [26, 60, 74], talking faces [24, 45, 67], and other downstream applications. The main problem with 3DMM is that it cannot model hair, beard, and eyelashes, since 3D polygon mesh models can hardly represent these structures. Therefore, traditional 3DMM cannot be used to render highly realistic images. This problem is solved in methods 2D generative model and conditional NeRF by introducing photometric loss and differentiable rendering.

However, the learned 3D information is limited and can be rendered only at small angles in the front, while larger angles will lead to severe rendering degradation. HeadNeRF [26] proposes to train the model with both large-scale 2D head images and relatively few 3D models, but only extending the renderable view to about $60^{\\circ}$ . MoFaNeRF [74] only leverages high-quality multi-view head images for training and realizes a 180-degree free-view renderable parameter head model. However, the main problem is that existing high-quality multiview 3D head data are commonly captured with hair tied up, so MoFaNeRF does not model hair. In later studies, RODIN [56] trains the parametric head with large-scale multi-view images rendered from artist-designed 3D models, and PanoHead [1] combined large-scale frontal 2D images with captured back-view hair images for training, both of which achieved a $360^{\\circ}$ renderable parametric head model. The main problem with these two models is that their facial expressions and motions are not riggable. Unlike all the above models, our model is the first motion-riggable and $360^{\\circ}$ renderable high-fidelity parametric head model.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 316, + 787, + 633 + ], + "page_idx": 3 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "3 Method", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 680, + 328, + 696 + ], + "page_idx": 3 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "We present a parametric 3D head model with hair for free-view synthesis in $360^{\\circ}$ and achieve single-image fitting, animating, and text-based editing.

Creating a \\(360^{\\circ}\\) parametric model of a human head is a very challenging task. While recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of leveraging synthetic data for building such parametric head models, their performance remains inadequate in crucial areas such as expression-driven animation, hairstyle editing, and text-based modifications. In this paper, we build a dataset of artist-designed high-fidelity human heads and propose to create a novel parametric 360-degree renderable parametric head model from it. Our scheme decouples the facial motion/shape and facial appearance, which are represented by a classic parametric 3D mesh model and an attached neural texture, respectively. We further propose a training method for decomposing hairstyle and facial appearance, allowing free-swapping of the hairstyle. A novel inversion fitting method is presented based on single image input with high generalization and fidelity. To the best of our knowledge, our model is the first parametric 3D full-head that achieves \\(360^{\\circ}\\) free-view synthesis, image-based fitting, appearance editing, and animation within a single model.

The parametric transformation is learned from a large set of heads in diverse shapes, appearances, and expressions, which are represented by registered 3D polygonal mesh models. According to the properties of parametric transformation, 3DMM can be further divided into linear models and nonlinear models. For a linear 3DMM, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) [40] is commonly used to learn the linear mapping from the 3D vertices and texture space of the head model to a low-dimensional space [7,29,34,53,54,63,71]. Linear 3DMM conversion calculation is straightforward and is widely used in face alignment, face reconstruction, and other tasks. For a non-linear 3DMM, a neural network or other non-linear model is adopted to model the mapping [3, 10, 46, 49-51], which is more powerful in representing detailed shape and appearance than linear mapping. 3DMM is widely used in 3D face reconstruction [62, 72, 73], generation [26, 60, 74], talking faces [24, 45, 67], and other downstream applications. The main problem with 3DMM is that it cannot model hair, beard, and eyelashes, since 3D polygon mesh models can hardly represent these structures. Therefore, traditional 3DMM cannot be used to render highly realistic images. This problem is solved in methods 2D generative model and conditional NeRF by introducing photometric loss and differentiable rendering.

A straightforward idea is to combine NeRF with GAN to create a conditional 3D GAN [48].

However, the learned 3D information is limited and can be rendered only at small angles in the front, while larger angles will lead to severe rendering degradation. HeadNeRF [26] proposes to train the model with both large-scale 2D head images and relatively few 3D models, but only extending the renderable view to about \\(60^{\\circ}\\). MoFaNeRF [74] only leverages high-quality multi-view head images for training and realizes a 180-degree free-view renderable parameter head model. However, the main problem is that existing high-quality multiview 3D head data are commonly captured with hair tied up, so MoFaNeRF does not model hair. In later studies, RODIN [56] trains the parametric head with large-scale multi-view images rendered from artist-designed 3D models, and PanoHead [1] combined large-scale frontal 2D images with captured back-view hair images for training, both of which achieved a \\(360^{\\circ}\\) renderable parametric head model.

The 3D heads are rendered by 72 head-centric virtual cameras covering 3 pitch angles and 24 horizontal rotation angles. Both rendered images and 3D mesh models will be released. Regarding model quality, the models of SYNHEAD100 dataset are more detailed and realistic than that of the Rodin dataset, as shown in Figure 3. Our models exhibit a greater level of skin detail, including pores, subtle textures, and the natural variations of skin irregularities. The rendering of light and shadow on facial features is more refined, reflecting a complex lighting environment that includes specular reflections off the skin's surface and soft shadow edges.

Creating a $360^{\circ}$ parametric model of a human head is a very challenging task. While recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of leveraging synthetic data for building such parametric head models, their performance remains inadequate in crucial areas such as expression-driven animation, hairstyle editing, and text-based modifications. In this paper, we build a dataset of artist-designed high-fidelity human heads and propose to create a novel parametric 360-degree renderable parametric head model from it. Our scheme decouples the facial motion/shape and facial appearance, which are represented by a classic parametric 3D mesh model and an attached neural texture, respectively. We further propose a training method for decomposing hairstyle and facial appearance, allowing free-swapping of the hairstyle. A novel inversion fitting method is presented based on single image input with high generalization and fidelity. To the best of our knowledge, our model is the first parametric 3D full-head that achieves $360^{\circ}$ free-view synthesis, image-based fitting, appearance editing, and animation within a single model. Experiments show that facial motions and appearances are well disentangled in the parametric space, leading to SOTA performance in rendering and animating quality. The code and SYNHEAD100 dataset are released in https://nju-3dv.github.io/projects/Head360. + +# 1 Introduction + +3D head modeling has been a longstanding and hot research topic in computer vision and graphics and is essential to many human-related downstream tasks. Generating a high-fidelity head model involves 3D surface reconstruction, material modeling, hair designing, rigging, etc, which is very complicated. To solve these challenges, classic pipelines rely on expensive systems (like light stage [15]) and the inevitable large amount of manpower (like hair design and rigging correction) to produce a high-fidelity head model. In recent years, the emergence of neural rendering and neural texture techniques has made it possible to implement this pipeline end-to-end with a sophisticated neural network, thus fully automated through a data-driven approach. + +Overall, the head modeling methods based on neural rendering can be divided into two technical routings. The first routing leverages massive 2D face image + +![](images/7a2cf33ee311c7b9593c3f01d15d16cef6e7e83ed516540675233498eb22fd5c.jpg) +Fig. 1: Overview. Our model is the first $360^{\circ}$ -renderable parametric 3D head with hair that supports image-based fitting and animation simultaneously. + +sets for training and achieves highly realistic rendering, motion retargeting, and identity inversion [8, 43]. The downsides are obvious, that is, it can only achieve high-quality renderings at a small angle range on the frontal side ( $< \pm 30^{\circ}$ ), while larger poses will cause serious image quality degradation. The second routing is to learn neural heads from 3D models, which are scanned real faces [14,55,63,71] or models designed by artists [56, 59]. These methods can synthesize $360^{\circ}$ high-quality renderings. However, the performance of motion animation and identity inversion is worse since too few 3D models are available for training. In summary, existing parametric 3D heads inevitably suffer from limited renderable angles (those trained on massive 2D images) or poor rigging/identity inversion (those trained on limited 3D head models). + +In this paper, we go further along the routine of modeling human heads from artist-designed 3D models. Since previous artist-designed datasets are not publicly available, we produce and schedule to open-source a high-fidelity 3D head dataset of 100 identities and 52 standard defined expressions per identity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first publicly available large-scale high-fidelity 3D human head dataset. Based on the dataset, a hybrid representation is leveraged to model the 4D head with hair, adopting mesh and its parametric model to represent 3D shape/motion while adopting neural texture to represent the appearance. The shape and appearance are then transformed into a radiance field and are rendered via the volume renderer. We split the radiation field into two parts, representing the head and the hair, respectively, so that the hairstyle can be switched freely. With this framework, we train a parametric head model with hair that is $360^{\circ}$ renderable. + +Based on this parametric model, we further extend its application for image-based fitting and appearance editing. A novel fitting method is designed to fit the shape and appearance of the whole human head based on a single image input. The generated or fitted head can be stylized according to a text prompt by introducing the prior from the large vision-language model. We are surprised that the fitted or edited head can still be animated with standard blendshapes parameter streams in high quality. We consider the reason because the framework of 'parametric 3D mesh + neural texture' effectively disentangles the head motion + +and appearance. Experiments show that our model can generate high-quality 3D head models that outperform previous parametric heads and are capable of fitting, animating, and text-based editing. + +Our contribution can be summarized as: + +- We propose a parametric 3D mesh + neural texture for parameterizing 3D heads, which has proved effective in disentangling head motions and appearances. +- A novel framework is proposed to detach hair and head, leading to the capability of hairstyle swapping and stronger fitting performance. +- Image-based fitting and text-based stylizing schemes are proposed specialized for our parametric head fitting and editing. +- A high-fidelity artist-designed 3D head dataset consisting of 100 identities, each with 52 standard expressions, is created and will be released upon publication. + +# 2 Related Work + +3D Morphable Model (3DMM): 3DMM is defined as a statistical model that transforms the 3D shape and texture of the heads into a vector space representation [5]. The parametric transformation is learned from a large set of heads in diverse shapes, appearances, and expressions, which are represented by registered 3D polygonal mesh models. According to the properties of parametric transformation, 3DMM can be further divided into linear models and nonlinear models. For a linear 3DMM, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) [40] is commonly used to learn the linear mapping from the 3D vertices and texture space of the head model to a low-dimensional space [7,29,34,53,54,63,71]. Linear 3DMM conversion calculation is straightforward and is widely used in face alignment, face reconstruction, and other tasks. For a non-linear 3DMM, a neural network or other non-linear model is adopted to model the mapping [3, 10, 46, 49-51], which is more powerful in representing detailed shape and appearance than linear mapping. 3DMM is widely used in 3D face reconstruction [62, 72, 73], generation [26, 60, 74], talking faces [24, 45, 67], and other downstream applications. The main problem with 3DMM is that it cannot model hair, beard, and eyelashes, since 3D polygon mesh models can hardly represent these structures. Therefore, traditional 3DMM cannot be used to render highly realistic images. This problem is solved in methods 2D generative model and conditional NeRF by introducing photometric loss and differentiable rendering. We recommend referring to the recent survey [18] for a comprehensive review of 3DMM. By contrast, + +2D Generative Head Model: Research on deep generative models has made significant progress in the last decade. The conditional generative models represented by the generative adversarial network (GAN) [19] have produced excellent results in the task of 2D face generation [9, 16, 17, 31, 32]. These methods learn a distribution of a large-scale 2D face image dataset through a deep generative network, which is trained by a min-max game between the generator network + +and the discriminator network. GAN-based models can not only synthesize 2D faces given a parameter but also obtain the parameters that fit a given 2D face by GAN inversion methods [61]. As GAN-based models are commonly trained on a large amount of real-captured portraits, their generated faces are highly photo-realistic. The disadvantage of GAN-based models is that they lack 3D information, so large-angle view synthesis is not supported. We highly recommend reading the survey on GANs [13,21] and GANs for face [30] for a comprehensive understanding of this field. Very recently, diffusion models [25] for face generation have shown appealing performance in cross-modal face generation [28, 33]. However, similar to GAN-based generative models, they suffer from the lack of stable 3D information as well. + +Conditional Head NeRF: NeRF [36, 37] provides an alternative representation for the parametric head by combining an implicit neural network with a volume renderer. A straightforward idea is to combine NeRF with GAN to create a conditional 3D GAN [48]. Early works [8, 20, 38, 43, 44] train generative 3D GANs by using massive 2D real portraits and are surprised to find that the model can learn 3D information from these 2D portraits with various identities and views. However, the learned 3D information is limited and can be rendered only at small angles in the front, while larger angles will lead to severe rendering degradation. HeadNeRF [26] proposes to train the model with both large-scale 2D head images and relatively few 3D models, but only extending the renderable view to about $60^{\circ}$ . MoFaNeRF [74] only leverages high-quality multi-view head images for training and realizes a 180-degree free-view renderable parameter head model. However, the main problem is that existing high-quality multiview 3D head data are commonly captured with hair tied up, so MoFaNeRF does not model hair. In later studies, RODIN [56] trains the parametric head with large-scale multi-view images rendered from artist-designed 3D models, and PanoHead [1] combined large-scale frontal 2D images with captured back-view hair images for training, both of which achieved a $360^{\circ}$ renderable parametric head model. The main problem with these two models is that their facial expressions and motions are not riggable. Unlike all the above models, our model is the first motion-riggable and $360^{\circ}$ renderable high-fidelity parametric head model. + +# 3 Method + +We present a parametric 3D head model with hair for free-view synthesis in $360^{\circ}$ and achieve single-image fitting, animating, and text-based editing. In this section, we will first introduce the artist-designed 3D head datasets in Sec. 3.1, which is used to train the parametric head. Then, the representation of the 3D head and the network design will be explained in Sec. 3.2. Finally, the training methods and the model manipulations, including fitting, animation, and editing, will be presented in Sec. 3.3 and Sec. 3.4, respectively. + +![](images/d043844cb309dd9aa4041c080c49c4f84999b11bb98d09a57c0642771bf80e2a.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overall pipeline. Our model is represented by a neural radiance field with hexplanes, conditioned on a generative neural texture and a parametric 3D mesh model. In this way, the facial appearance, shape, and motion are parameterized as texture code $t$ , shape code $s$ , and blendshapes parameter $b$ , respectively. The RefineNet, a conditional GAN, is introduced to further improve the details of the generated faces. + +# 3.1 SYNHEAD100 Dataset + +The quality and quantity of the training data are crucial to the performance of a learning-based parametric head, but capturing ideal training data is very hard and expensive. As shown in Tab. 1, previous multi-view or 3D head datasets have certain obvious flaws, like low 3D accuracy [7], wrapped hair [14,55,63,71], and lack of rigging [14,39]. Very recently, learning from large-scale synthetic 3D heads [59] has proved to be effective [56]. However, the synthetic 3D head dataset they used is not publicly released and is a very high cost. + +Therefore, we create a high-fidelity synthetic 3D head dataset for free research use, containing 100 different subjects with diverse hairstyles and facial appearances, rigged into 52 standard blendshapes bases. The models were designed by the artists referring to FaceScape [71] and HeadSpace [14], two public data sets, which cover the appearance of western and eastern races. The SYNHEAD100 dataset encompasses 374,400 calibrated high-resolution images and 5,200 mesh models for each identity under 52 expressions. The ratio of males to females in the dataset is 1:1, and the age is fairly evenly distributed between 16 and 70. The 3D heads are rendered by 72 head-centric virtual cameras covering 3 pitch angles and 24 horizontal rotation angles. Both rendered images and 3D mesh models will be released. Regarding model quality, the models of SYNHEAD100 dataset are more detailed and realistic than that of the Rodin dataset, as shown in Figure 3. Our models exhibit a greater level of skin detail, including pores, subtle textures, and the natural variations of skin irregularities. The rendering of light and shadow on facial features is more refined, reflecting a complex lighting environment that includes specular reflections off the skin's surface and soft shadow edges. More descriptions can be found in the supplementary material. + +![](images/939ba27f05dc55160a5200ce932c554ddfc4f9f828f4d46fb1b747a4e7a42074.jpg) +Rodin +Fig. 3: Comparison of the data quality..

+ +* Dataset not publicly available; † Rough captured 3D hair shape. + +# 3.2 Head Representation + +As shown in Fig. 2, our model is represented by a neural radiance field [36] with hex-planes, which is conditioned on a generative neural texture [43, 47] and a parametric 3D mesh model [34]. + +Parametric 3D Mesh. Given the shape code $s$ and blendshapes code $b$ representing facial motion, a head avatar mesh can be generated by a mapping defined by the parametric 3D mesh model. This mapping is established by reducing dimensionality to the synthetic dataset on the identity dimension. Specifically, given the vertices of the mesh models in our synthetic dataset containing 100 identities $\times 52$ blendshapes bases, we first create a large matrix $V_{o}\in \mathbb{R}^{(3N)\times 100\times 52}$ , where $N$ denotes the number of the vertices. Then tucker decomposition [52] is used on the identity dimension, yielding a smaller core tensor $C_r\in \mathbb{R}^{(3N)\times 50\times 52}$ , the bilinear model face model for our model. In this way, the mapping between 3D models and parameters ( $s$ for facial shape and $b$ for facial expressions) can be formulated as: + +$$ +V = C _ {r} \times s \times b \tag {1} +$$ + +where $V$ is a $N\times 3$ vector representing vertices of a head avatar model. + +Dual Hex-planes for Detaching Hair. Given the texture code $t$ , the neural texture and the feature maps are synthesized by an image generator network. + +Following Next3D [43], the neural textures with the generated 3D mesh are rasterized into multiple feature planes and rendered to the image given the camera parameters. Finally, RefineNet further improves the details of the rendered images. Based on the representation of tri-planes NeRF conditioned on neural texture and 3D mesh, we further propose three modifications. First, instead of three feature planes to be rasterized [8], we adopt six feature planes, namely hex-planes, to model the $360^{\circ}$ appearance of the head from front, back, left, right, top, and bottom. Experiments showed that the hex-planes improve the rendering quality and are more suitable for training on $360^{\circ}$ multi-view image data. Second, A two-branch network is introduced to model a bald head and hair separately. We propose a training strategy that decouples hair and head to achieve free-swapping of hairstyles and better fitting performance. The training strategy for disentangling hair and head will be detailed in Sec. 3.3. Finally, a more accurate parametric 3D head model is used, which is connected to the rasterizing module. Though the parametric head model is not trained with neural texture, the connection enables the shape code $s$ to be an estimizable parameter in the GAN inversion. + +# 3.3 Model Training + +Loss Functions. The loss function to train the hex-planes conditioned on neural texture and parametric 3D mesh is formulated as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p h o t o}} + \lambda_ {1} \left(\mathcal {L} _ {d - g a n} + \lambda_ {2} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d e n s i t y}}\right) \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{L}_{photo}$ is the photometric loss, which is calculated by $L_{1}$ loss between the renderings and the ground-truth image; $\mathcal{L}_{d - gan}$ is the dual GAN loss presented in Next3D [43]; $\mathcal{L}_{density}$ is the density regularization proposed in EG3D [8]. In our experiments, the loss weights $\lambda_{1}$ is set to 0.01, and $\lambda_{1}$ is set following the setting of EG3D. The learning rate $l$ is related to the regularization interval $R_{i}$ of the generator and discriminator, which is formulated: + +$$ +l = l _ {\text {b a s e}} \times \frac {R _ {i}}{R i + 1} \tag {3} +$$ + +where the $R_{i}$ for the generator is 4 and that for the discriminator is 16 in our experiments; Adam optimizer is used to train the model with the base learning rate $l_{base}$ as 0.0025 and the batch size as 8. + +RefineNet. A conditional GAN is introduced to further improve the details of the generated faces. Following MoFaNeRF [74], we adopt pix2pixHD [57] as the backbone of our RefineNet. The input of the RefineNet is the generated images, which are rendered from the composited hex-planes. In the training phase, the overall network except for RefineNet is first trained, then RefineNet is trained with the other parts of the network detached. The loss function and hyper-parameters for training RefineNet are the same as pix2pixHD [57]. + +Implementation Details. Our model is trained on 4 NVIDIA 3090 GPUs for roughly 10 days. To achieve a balance between training speed and rendering quality, the images in our dataset are downscaled to a resolution of $512 \times 512$ before being fed into the network, and the rendering structure of the model also outputs images at a resolution of $512 \times 512$ . As introduced in Sec. 3.2, dual hex-planes are generated for head and hair separately. The full network with two hex-planes trainable is firstly trained with the images with hairs in 3000k iterations, then is fine-tuned for hair detachment for additional 40k iterations. Due to limited space, we put more training details in the supplementary material. + +# 3.4 Model Manipulation + +Fitting to Single Image. A novel method is proposed to fit our model to a target image. Initially, we followed GAN-inversion [61] to keep the trained parameters of the model unchanged and optimize for shape code $s$ and texture code $t$ , but found the fitting results bad. Therefore, three improvements are made to improve the fitting performance according to our observations and experiments. + +Firstly, we believe that one major reason is that the solution space formed by $s$ and $t$ is too large to be optimized simultaneously. We also tried to optimize $t$ and $s$ iteratively, again with no good results. Therefore, we propose to obtain a relatively faithful shape code $s$ by minimizing the projection error of facial landmarks, according to Eq. 1 as presented by Yang et al. [63,71]. Then, the shape code is set unchanged, and only texture is optimized via GAN-inversion. + +Secondly, considering that our parametric head is trained on relatively small data with only 100 identities, the parametric space of the texture code $t$ is very limited to cover diverse facial appearances. To address this issue, we propose to optimize for the Neural Texture rather than texture code $t$ or mapped texture code $w$ , which further boosts the generalization of the fitting. Specifically, L1 loss between the generated frontal views and the input image is adopted for the single-image fitting. The shape code $s$ is optimized to obtain a fitted mesh that matches the input image. The fitted shape is then fixed and a random neural texture is selected as the initialization to optimize the neural texture. The image is firstly normalized to align the input face and the canonical position of our parametric 3D head. Then, Poisson blending [41] is used on the output image obtained from random texture initialization with wild real faces that have been aligned to SYNHEAD100 dataset. By optimizing the hex-planes space to reduce the discrepancy between the pre-processed images and those generated with random textures, the neural texture and latent code for hair can be optimized. Then, a $360^{\circ}$ renderable and animatable head is generated to fit the appearance of the input image. + +Thirdly, despite implementing the aforementioned improvements, we noticed that the fitting results for hairstyles remain unsatisfactory. We believe this is due to the extensive diversity in everyday hairstyles, which our dataset of 100 hairstyle sets is inadequate to represent. To alleviate this problem, we propose to first remove the hair from the target images by semantic parsing algorithm [65, 66] and optimize for a bald head model. Then a hairstyle classifier based on + +Table 2: Quantitative evaluation of fitting results. + +

+ +ResNet-50 [23] is trained to classify the target's hairstyle into 30 categories that match the hairstyle categories in our SYNHEAD100 dataset. The model is trained by 6200 face images synthesized by StyleGanV2 with manual annotations of hairstyle. Finally, the predicted hairstyle is combined with the fitted bald head model to generate a high-quality head model with hair. + +Animation. Our parametric 3D mesh is defined following a standard 52 facial blendshapes, which is also adopted by ARKit [2]. Therefore, our generated or fitted head can be animated by many blendshapes streaming tools. Our model can synthesize appearance features not closely attached to the mesh surface (like hair, mouth, and eyelashes), which are temporal consistent. It means that our proposed learnable representation can reach the performance of complex traditional artist-designed head avatars, achieving high-fidelity animation. The animation results are shown in Sec. 4 and the supplementary video. + +Text-based Editing. Inspired by Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [22], we incorporate text-based image-conditioned diffusion model [6] with our animatable 3D parametric representation for 3D head editing. Specifically, after a head is generated or fitted, the multi-view images are rendered and edited by a text-guided image-to-image translator. The edited images are then used to fine-tune our parametric 3D head model. Empirically, we sample patches on generated images to fine-tune our parametric model, leading to better performance than the original random sampling strategy. Our text-based editing strategy aims to add abstract features, such as 'wearing makeup' and 'aged', to a generated head, without changing his/her identity. The edited head can still be animated by standard blendshapes parameters. + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section, we first compare our fitting results and generated results with previous methods, then analyze the effectiveness of the proposed module through the ablation study, and finally show the results of animation, hairstyle-swapping, and text-based editing. + +![](images/e90472b50ebd7aed541d1eb90f3a1857a1f9478e654a83256b4426d7860799f8.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparison of fitting results.

Both original and re-trained models on our dataset are compared for a comprehensive comparison. + +All the methods are compared quantitatively in Tab. 2 and qualitatively in Fig. 4. Regarding original models, EG3D and Next3D are originally trained on large-scale in-the-wild 2D face datasets. The fitted head is of high quality at the frontal views but fails when viewing angles are larger than $90^{\circ}$ . The PanoHead model is trained on both large-scale in-the-wild 2D images and in-house captured hair and head images. PanoHead synthesizes plausible results in $360^{\circ}$ , but the resulting model cannot be animated like ours. The MoFaNeRF model is trained on studio-captured high-quality 3D face models. Its results are canonical heads without hair and fail to be rendered when the viewing angles are larger than $90^{\circ}$ as well. HeadNeRF leverages both in-the-wild images and studio-captured multiview images for training. Its results are animatable but degrade severely when viewing angles are larger. In summary, the fitting results of all these methods are plausible at frontal views, but cannot be rendered in $360^{\circ}$ except for PanoHead. The major drawback of PanoHead is that its results are static and cannot be animated. + +Table 3: Quantitative evaluation of generated results + +

The fitting method of all these three models is to optimize for the latent code by GAN inversion strategy. Since the appearances in our training set are few (100 identities), the performance of retrained EG3D, PanoHead, and MoFaNeRF is poor due to the limited appearance space. By contrast, our method optimizes the neural texture to fit the input image, which enables the model to fit in a much larger solution space.

The aim of EG3D and PanoHead is modeling static 3D models that cannot be animated, which is relatively easier.

EG3D and PanoHead cannot be animated as the expression is not parameterized in their model, so only neutral expressions are used for evaluation. By contrast, the results of MoFaNeRF and our model are riggable. Our method outperforms previous methods in all four metrics, which demonstrates the effectiveness of our representation in $360^{\circ}$ head modeling. + +Table 4: Quantitative Evaluation of Hair Swapping. + +

Our approach decouples the facial motion/shape and facial appearance, represented by a classic blendshapes model and neural texture, respectively. Notably, our model is the first of its kind — a parametric 3D head model that supports $360^{\circ}$ free-view synthesis, single-image fitting, and animation driven by a blendshapes parameter flow. + +Limitations. Creating high-fidelity avatars comes at a considerable cost, thus limiting our dataset to 100 identities. Considering the high cost of producing high-fidelity digital human data, we think it is meaningful to study how to learn a parametric head model under the condition of limited data amount. Although some in-the-wild fitting results are plausible by learning from this finite training set, stability in fitting remains a challenge. Evidence of this can be found in the failure case presented in our supplementary material. A potential solution might entail expanding the dataset and incorporating real-world images and models into the training process. Moreover, our method does not decompose the material and lighting, which results in some highlights being baked into the texture. It reduces the photo-realism and application potential. This issue could be alleviated by utilizing the illumination and material information from the synthetic dataset. We leave these considerations for future work. + +Acknowledgement.

While recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of leveraging synthetic data for building such parametric head models, their performance remains inadequate in crucial areas such as expression-driven animation, hairstyle editing, and text-based modifications. In this paper, we build a dataset of artist-designed high-fidelity human heads and propose to create a novel parametric 360-degree renderable parametric head model from it. Our scheme decouples the facial motion/shape and facial appearance, which are represented by a classic parametric 3D mesh model and an attached neural texture, respectively. We further propose a training method for decomposing hairstyle and facial appearance, allowing free-swapping of the hairstyle.

The parametric transformation is learned from a large set of heads in diverse shapes, appearances, and expressions, which are represented by registered 3D polygonal mesh models. According to the properties of parametric transformation, 3DMM can be further divided into linear models and nonlinear models. For a linear 3DMM, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) [40] is commonly used to learn the linear mapping from the 3D vertices and texture space of the head model to a low-dimensional space [7,29,34,53,54,63,71]. Linear 3DMM conversion calculation is straightforward and is widely used in face alignment, face reconstruction, and other tasks. For a non-linear 3DMM, a neural network or other non-linear model is adopted to model the mapping [3, 10, 46, 49-51], which is more powerful in representing detailed shape and appearance than linear mapping. 3DMM is widely used in 3D face reconstruction [62, 72, 73], generation [26, 60, 74], talking faces [24, 45, 67], and other downstream applications. The main problem with 3DMM is that it cannot model hair, beard, and eyelashes, since 3D polygon mesh models can hardly represent these structures. Therefore, traditional 3DMM cannot be used to render highly realistic images. This problem is solved in methods 2D generative model and conditional NeRF by introducing photometric loss and differentiable rendering.

The disadvantage of GAN-based models is that they lack 3D information, so large-angle view synthesis is not supported. We highly recommend reading the survey on GANs [13,21] and GANs for face [30] for a comprehensive understanding of this field.

Although some in-the-wild fitting results are plausible by learning from this finite training set, stability in fitting remains a challenge. Evidence of this can be found in the failure case presented in our supplementary material.

Thus, there will be multiple Gaussians representing the same face region, and these duplicates will become active (apparent) one at a time, to support the face geometry at a certain state of expression. Figure 2 illustrates the opacity change as a result on an expression transition. Note how Gaussians representing lower lip and chin areas in frame $i$ turn transparent to allow for mouth opening in frame $j$ , while another set of chin Gaussians emerge at a lower location to accommodate the new jaw position in frame $j$ . To allow for such varying appearance, guided by an expression vector, we introduce a basis of latent features inside each Gaussian. This learned basis is multiplied with an input expression vector, and its sum is fed to a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) to yield the final color and opacity. This idea is inspired by traditional blendshape 3DMMs [6], and it can be interpreted as a latent-feature shape basis that is blended in the feature domain rather than directly in PCA space [5] or meshes [6]. Our model is simple and effective, and it can work with various 3DMM representations, as it does not explicitly model deformations with respect to a particular mesh topology.

Also, applying a transformation to the positions and rotations leads to worse results (Ours $w/ \\Delta(\\mu, R)$ ). We hypothesize this is because, in the context of 3DGS - which is relying on several heuristics - adding another dimension (in the form of spatial 3D motion) further complicates the already difficult optimization, resulting in geometrically inconsistent transformation (e.g. failure to preserve relative distances of points in the skin), especially for large motion. Figure 5 confirms these results and reveals floater artifacts and less accurate expressions. We also observe that allowing all parameters to change (Ours change all) increases the solution space and makes the heuristic-based 3DGS optimization more challenging, leading to blurrier results. Further, blending the explicit parameters directly (Ours $w/o$ MLP) leads to a worse performance than our neural variant. Despite a tighter PSNR gap, we notice a drastic visual effect on the highly dynamic areas, relevant to the blending, as illustrated in Figure 5.

Though these models make it possible to drive a captured avatar via a set of low-dimensional parameters, generally their generated images lack realism.

Thereby, the explicit models impose stronger constraints on the head surface, which allows for better expression and pose generalization, while making it more difficult to preserve photo realism, as they inherit the limitations and artifacts of the underlying representation (mesh, point cloud) as observed in Gao et al. [14] and also seen in our experiments (Fig. 4). With the recent success of neural radiance fields (NeRFs) [31], typically implicit models are based on a NeRF representation [13].

Very recently, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [20] emerged as a competitive alternative to NeRF, which leads to reasonable photo-realism while bringing the rendering speed to real-time rates.

The core idea behind HeadGaS is to represent motion by allowing Gaussians to alter their opacity and color over time. As a consequence, HeadGaS will result in duplicates of the dynamic face areas, i.e. achieving dynamics via over-representation. Thus, there will be multiple Gaussians representing the same face region, and these duplicates will become active (apparent) one at a time, to support the face geometry at a certain state of expression. Figure 2 illustrates the opacity change as a result on an expression transition. Note how Gaussians representing lower lip and chin areas in frame \\(i\\) turn transparent to allow for mouth opening in frame \\(j\\), while another set of chin Gaussians emerge at a lower location to accommodate the new jaw position in frame \\(j\\). To allow for such varying appearance, guided by an expression vector, we introduce a basis of latent features inside each Gaussian. This learned basis is multiplied with an input expression vector, and its sum is fed to a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) to yield the final color and opacity. This idea is inspired by traditional blendshape 3DMMs [6], and it can be interpreted as a latent-feature shape basis that is blended in the feature domain rather than directly in PCA space [5] or meshes [6]. Our model is simple and effective, and it can work with various 3DMM representations, as it does not explicitly model deformations with respect to a particular mesh topology. Practically, in our experiments we show that HeadGaS can be controlled with expression parameters from two different 3DMMs, namely FLAME [24] and FaceWarehouse [6].

Also, applying a transformation to the positions and rotations leads to worse results (Ours \\( w/ \\Delta(\\mu, R) \\)). We hypothesize this is because, in the context of 3DGS - which is relying on several heuristics - adding another dimension (in the form of spatial 3D motion) further complicates the already difficult optimization, resulting in geometrically inconsistent transformation (e.g. failure to preserve relative distances of points in the skin), especially for large motion. Figure 5 confirms these results and reveals floater artifacts and less accurate expressions. We also observe that allowing all parameters to change (Ours change all) increases the solution space and makes the heuristic-based 3DGS optimization more challenging, leading to blurrier results. Further, blending the explicit parameters directly (Ours \\( w/o \\) MLP) leads to a worse performance than our neural variant. Despite a tighter PSNR gap, we notice a drastic visual effect on the highly dynamic areas, relevant to the blending, as illustrated in Figure 5.

Future work can be dedicated to improving the memory efficiency of the HeadGaS feature bases." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.667, + 0.115, + 0.732, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "HeadGaS" + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.769, + 0.117, + 0.785, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "15" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.145, + 0.323, + 0.16 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "References" + }, + { + "type": "ref_text", + "bbox": [ + 0.226, + 0.179, + 0.785, + 0.221 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1.

Real-time rendering is a highly desirable goal for real-world applications. We propose HeadGaS, a model that uses 3D Gaussian Splats (3DGS) for 3D head reconstruction and animation. In this paper we introduce a hybrid model that extends the explicit 3DGS representation with a base of learnable latent features, which can be linearly blended with low-dimensional parameters from parametric head models to obtain expression-dependent color and opacity values. We demonstrate that HeadGaS delivers state-of-the-art results in real-time inference frame rates, surpassing baselines by up to 2 dB, while accelerating rendering speed by over $\times 10$ . + +Keywords: animatable head avatars $\cdot$ gaussian splatting $\cdot$ radiance fields + +# 1 Introduction + +Reconstructing photorealistic 3D heads which are in turn controllable and naturally expressive is essential for building digital avatars that look and behave like real humans. This has a wide range of applications including AR/VR, teleconferencing, and gaming. Designing head models that accomplish high fidelity in their appearance, are easy to capture and enable expressive control has been an active research field in recent years, specially due to the fast development of neural and differentiable rendering approaches. + +Animatable 3D head reconstruction consists in driving a captured head avatar, based on a target sequence of facial expressions and head poses. In the last decades, various parametric 3D morphable models (3DMM) have emerged [5,6, 24], which can be fitted to sequences of a moving head and later on enable pose and expression control. Though these models make it possible to drive a captured avatar via a set of low-dimensional parameters, generally their generated images lack realism. Other works utilize the fitting of low-dimensional parameters from such 3DMM models for initial estimates and build on other mechanisms to obtain more realistic imagery with animation capabilities [13, 16]. + +In particular, with the recent success of differentiable rendering, various 3D-aware animatable head models emerged that can reconstruct and render 3D heads, while providing the functionality to drive them based on expression parameters from 3DMM models. These representations can be explicit (mesh, point clouds) [16, 61] or implicit (neural) [14]. Thereby, the explicit models impose stronger constraints on the head surface, which allows for better expression and pose generalization, while making it more difficult to preserve photo realism, as they inherit the limitations and artifacts of the underlying representation (mesh, point cloud) as observed in Gao et al. [14] and also seen in our experiments (Fig. 4). With the recent success of neural radiance fields (NeRFs) [31], typically implicit models are based on a NeRF representation [13]. Some of these models [14, 62] prioritize time constraints and therefore rely on very fast volumetric NeRF variants (e.g. InstantNGP [33]) to enable fast training and rendering. + +Despite impressive efforts to improve NeRFs to be more accurate [3] and fast [33], there is a trade-off between these two aspects that is hard to satisfy simultaneously [3]. Moreover, even fast and efficient NeRF models like Instant-NGP typically enable interactive inference frame rates at best (10-15 fps) [20]. Very recently, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [20] emerged as a competitive alternative to NeRF, which leads to reasonable photo-realism while bringing the rendering speed to real-time rates. This is thanks to its representation as a set of 3D Gaussian primitives, with a more efficient space coverage compared to point clouds, combined with efficient tile-based rasterization. However, in the light of 3D head animation, in its original form, 3DGS does not constitute an intuitive surface or point set that can be directly deformed based on 3DMM deformation, unlike other well-known representations, e.g. surface or pointcloud based. + +To circumvent this limitation, we propose HeadGaS, a model that enhances 3D Gaussians with head animation capabilities (see Figure 1). At test time, our model receives a sequence of head poses and expression parameters, and gen- + +![](images/80bb3cc4c35c54311bef020ed6edeae2cc139ffe0e6a471b9a9c725e42f58058.jpg) +render i + +![](images/35a491b321a23b1348457897ed44d7b9a0d1340682c7c1e102972b10ea0f7adc.jpg) +HeadGaS rendered frames +render $j$ + +![](images/dc0dd20bb03df4a91fedf2619f0caf55d498ec0e42d4be58b4087fb266ea38fc.jpg) +Opacity transition from $i$ to $j$ , i.e. $(\alpha_{j} - \alpha_{i})$ +decreasing + +![](images/07e4c020006f5c214b89a39a678104f22467eef3329623ed6ba5b9c1ce667906.jpg) +increasing +Fig. 2: Motion modelling via opacity change.

Right: Rendering of opacity difference $\alpha_{j} - \alpha_{i}$ (blue: Gaussians with an opacity decrease; red: Gaussians with an opacity increase; colors close to white: minor change, static regions). We observe a strong opacity increase in dynamic areas, e.g. lower chin Gaussians turn opaque as the jaw fully opens. + +erates a photo-realistic video of the reconstructed avatar. The core idea behind HeadGaS is to represent motion by allowing Gaussians to alter their opacity and color over time. As a consequence, HeadGaS will result in duplicates of the dynamic face areas, i.e. achieving dynamics via over-representation. Thus, there will be multiple Gaussians representing the same face region, and these duplicates will become active (apparent) one at a time, to support the face geometry at a certain state of expression. Figure 2 illustrates the opacity change as a result on an expression transition. Note how Gaussians representing lower lip and chin areas in frame $i$ turn transparent to allow for mouth opening in frame $j$ , while another set of chin Gaussians emerge at a lower location to accommodate the new jaw position in frame $j$ . To allow for such varying appearance, guided by an expression vector, we introduce a basis of latent features inside each Gaussian. This learned basis is multiplied with an input expression vector, and its sum is fed to a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) to yield the final color and opacity. This idea is inspired by traditional blendshape 3DMMs [6], and it can be interpreted as a latent-feature shape basis that is blended in the feature domain rather than directly in PCA space [5] or meshes [6]. Our model is simple and effective, and it can work with various 3DMM representations, as it does not explicitly model deformations with respect to a particular mesh topology. Practically, in our experiments we show that HeadGaS can be controlled with expression parameters from two different 3DMMs, namely FLAME [24] and FaceWarehouse [6]. The rendering is done in real-time framereates, at over 100 fps (about 250 fps for $512^{2}$ resolution). We show experimentally that our visibility-varying Gaussians outperform the evident alternative of moving the Gaussians, which we attribute to the fact that adding 3D motion makes the optimization even more complex. + +We evaluate our model on publicly available monocular video datasets, commonly used in related works [14, 61, 62]. Thereby, we demonstrate that the proposed model yields superior results, while increasing the rendering speed by at least a $\times 10$ factor compared to interactive NeRF-based baselines [14, 62]. We + +show the applications of HeadGaS in novel same-person expression transfer, cross-subject expression transfer, as well as novel view synthesis. + +To summarize, our contributions include: + +1. We formulate a novel framework that can render photo-realistic 3D-aware animatable heads in real-time, adapting an efficient set of 3D Gaussian primitives. This framework handles face dynamics by allowing opacity and color to change over time, i.e., leveraging over-representation. +2. We extend 3DGS [20] with a per-Gaussian basis of latent features, which can be blended with expression weights to enable expression control. +3. We extensively evaluate our proposed method, and compare it against state-of-the-art approaches, obtaining up to 2dB improvement and $\times 10$ speed-ups. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Towards Fast and Dynamic Radiance Fields + +NeRF [31] represent the scene as an implicit neural radiance field, that queries 3D space and predicts density and view-dependent color via a MLP. In the following years, many follow-up works have focused on improving different aspects of it such as anti-aliasing [1-3], regularization for sparse views [11,34,47] and speed [8,33,45]; or enhancing results post-rendering [7]. DVGO [45] replace the MLP of NeRF with a density and learned feature voxel grid to considerably speed up convergence. TensoRF [8] factorize the 4D feature voxel grid of a scene into a set of low-rank 2D and 3D tensors which improves efficiency. InstantNGP [33] employ a hash grid and an occupancy grid to accelerate computation, followed by a small MLP that infers density and color. NeRFs have also been used to represent dynamic scenes including human bodies [9,38,50], human heads [14,62], and generic time-varying scenes [12,25,36,37,39,46]. Typically these models rely on a canonical space, where all observations are mapped for time consistent reconstruction. Methods aiming at fast rendering speeds [14,62] build on an InstantNGP hash grid and achieve interactive frame rates (10-15 fps). + +3DGS [20] represent a scene as a set of explicit 3D Gaussians with the motivation to minimize computation in empty spaces. Their efficient representation combined with tile-based rasterization algorithm allows for accelerated training and real-time rendering (over 100 fps). A line of works extends the 3D Gaussian representation to model dynamic scenes [29,43,51,56]. Luiten et al. [29] propose simultaneous dynamic scene reconstruction and 6-DoF tracking by allowing the Gaussians to change position and rotation over time while enforcing the same color, size and opacity. Yang et al. [56] learn a MLP based deformation that maps 3D Gaussians to a canonical space. 4D-GS [51] propose an efficient deformation field by querying features in shared multi-resolution voxel planes. + +Very recent concurrent works model human head [10,52,54] and body [23,32] avatars with 3DGS, by deforming a canonical head via a 3DMM-conditioned MLP [52,54], relying on a tri-plane [49], or binding 3D Gaussians in a FLAME mesh [40]. Our method is quite different from these works, in that we utilize a per-Gaussian feature basis and opacity induced dynamics. + +# 2.2 Head Reconstruction and Animation + +Head reconstruction from a set of image observations has been a very active field in the recent years, including models that generalize across subjects [17, 30, 48], or rely on multi-view head captures [18, 22, 27, 28], which can have a static [18, 48] or dynamic form [17, 22]. Most related to our proposed method, are works that learn a dynamic, animatable 3D head model from a monocular video sequence that observes the head in various poses and facial expressions, and is capable to generate a novel expression or pose at test time. A line of works relies on explicit scene representations, such as meshes or point clouds [15, 16, 21, 61]. Neural Head Avatars [16] models the geometry and texture explicitly via a hybrid representation consisting of a coarse morphable model, followed by a neural based refinement that predict voxel offsets. PointAvatar [61] propose a deformable point-based representation, where all points have the same radius. Our 3D Gaussian set shares some similarity with a point cloud, yet it is more flexible. Each Gaussian can have its own radius, orientation and different axis lengths. Recently, FLARE [4] was proposed, a model that updates a traditional graphics pipeline with a few neural components. FLARE can optimize a 3D mesh via differentiable rendering, enabling avatars that are animatable and relightable. + +Another line of works extend implicit neural radiance representations. NerFACE [13] use a dynamic NeRF to combine scene information with a morphable head model to enable pose and expression control. IMAvatar [60] utilizes neural implicit surfaces [35] and learns an implicit deformation field from canonical space to observation based on expression parameters and pose. With the goal of fast training, and interactive rendering, more recent works extend Instant-NGP [33] with head aware models. INSTA [62] use a tracked FLAME mesh as a geometrical prior to deform the points into canonical space, followed by Instant-NGP [33]. NeRFBlendShape [14] follow a different approach, that in contrast to most previous works does not rely on deformation. Instead, inspired by classic blendshape models for heads [6], they utilize a base of multi-level hash grid fields [33], where the model can be driven via a linear blending of such hash grid base with the expression vector. Similarly, AvatarMAV [55] use expression weights to blend a set of motion voxel grids. Our proposed approach resembles these blending-based ideas, but instead we use the expression vector to blend latent per-Gaussian features to predict expression-specific color and opacity. + +Different from all works discussed in this section, we adopt a set of 3D Gaussians as neural radiance representation, to take advantage of the fast rendering benefits, combined with competitive photorealism. + +# 3 Method + +Given a monocular video of a moving head, our goal is to learn a 3D head model and render novel images of this avatar based on a facial expression vector and camera pose. As a pre-processing step, similar to other works [14, 16, 61, 62], we require head poses and a vector of expression weights associated with each frame, and adopt a head tracking pipeline to achieve this. Note that HeadGaS does not + +![](images/9942031089af38fd5a2edd32a7e51a3465c2e74375e34449ba25b7c2ebcec811.jpg) +Fig. 3: HeadGaS pipeline. We represent 3D space as a set of feature-enhanced 3D Gaussians. Every Gaussian contains a feature basis $\pmb{F}$ that can be blended via the expression vector to obtain a frame specific feature $\pmb{f}_i$ . The frame specific feature is fed to an MLP $\phi(\cdot)$ alongside position $\pmb{\mu}$ to obtain expression-dependent color $\pmb{c}_i$ and opacity $\pmb{\alpha}_i$ . Finally, $\pmb{c}_i$ and $\pmb{\alpha}_i$ are fed to the rasterizer alongside other Gaussian parameters like rotation $R$ , scale $S$ and position $\pmb{\mu}$ to render the image. + +explicitly build on a certain parametric model, and it can therefore work with different head models. We have performed experiments with two models [6,24] based on the head tracking frameworks of prior work [14,60,62]. The resulting rigid head poses are converted to camera poses, to map all observations to the canonical head pose. In addition, we perform video matting [26] followed by face parsing [58] to discard background areas and clothing to focus on the head region only. In the following sections, we will first provide a background on the original 3DGS (Sec. 3.1) and further describe the proposed strategy for animatable 3DGS (Sec. 3.2), the rendering (Sec. 3.3) and its optimization (Sec. 3.4). + +# 3.1 Original 3DGS Representation + +Given a set of images of a static scene and the corresponding camera poses, 3DGS [20] learn a 3D scene as a set of 3D Gaussians, and can render a novel image from a given viewpoint. For initialization, 3DGS utilizes a sparse point cloud, typically originating from the COLMAP [42] framework by which they also obtain the camera poses. Thereby, a 3D Gaussian is represented as a tuple of 3D covariance matrix $\pmb{\Sigma} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ , Gaussian center $\pmb{\mu} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , color $\pmb{c} \in \mathbb{R}^{3(k+1)^2}$ and opacity $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ , i.e. $\mathcal{G} = (\pmb{\Sigma}, \pmb{\mu}, \pmb{c}, \alpha)$ , where $k$ is the degree of the spherical harmonics. The Gaussians are defined in world space, centered at the mean point + +$$ +G (x) = e ^ {- \frac {1}{2} (x) ^ {T} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {- 1} (x)}. \tag {1} +$$ + +To make optimization stable, i.e. guarantee that $\pmb{\Sigma}$ is positive semi-definite, the covariance matrix is further decomposed into rotation $R$ and scaling $S$ : + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Sigma} = R S S ^ {T} R ^ {T}. \tag {2} +$$ + +Color is given as spherical harmonics (SH) of degree $k$ and is thus view-dependent. + +The Gaussian parameters are optimized via a differentiable rasterizer, that projects the current 3D Gaussians to the image space and compares against the ground truth images. This rasterizer relies on an efficient algorithm for sorting the Gaussians and tiling the image space, which leads to very fast training and rendering. Alongside the optimizations, 3DGS employs an adaptive mechanism for pruning and densification, to make sure that the set of gaussians represents the space effectively. For more details, we refer the reader to the 3DGS paper [20]. + +# 3.2 Feature Blending Formulation + +Here we describe how we extend the 3DGS representation with animation capabilities. The vanilla 3DGS model does not inherently allow for this, as it learns a static set of parameters, which is the same for all frames. Inspired by 3DMMs, the goal of our model is to explore a blending mechanism for the 3D Gaussian components, using the pre-computed expression parameters as blending weights. Namely, we want each Gaussian to change color and opacity based on the current expression $i$ . This leads to 3D Gaussians with dynamic appearance which occasionally appear and vanish depending on the current expression, and additionally allow color changes for non-rigid appearance effects such as wrinkles. For instance, referring to Figure 2, Gaussians of closed lips visible in frame $i$ will turn transparent in frame $j$ , as the jaw opens, while another set of Gaussians at a different location will become visible to render open lips. The model will thus learn multiple Gaussians corresponding to the same region in the face, such that these can become opaque as needed. + +With the goal of enabling such dynamic appearance, we extend every 3D Gaussian with a basis of latent features $\pmb{F} \in \mathbb{R}^{B \times f_{dim}}$ , (see Figure 3). Our animatable 3D Gaussian representation then becomes $\mathcal{G}_a = (\pmb{\Sigma}, \pmb{\mu}, \pmb{F})$ . The latent base is optimized together with the other parameters of the 3D Gaussian. At each iteration, we leverage the respective expression weights $\pmb{e}_i \in \mathbb{R}^B$ of the current frame $i$ , to blend the feature basis $\pmb{F}$ into a 1D vector $\pmb{f}_i \in \mathbb{R}^{f_{dim}}$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} _ {i} = \boldsymbol {F} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {e} _ {i} + \boldsymbol {f} _ {0} \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\pmb{f}_0$ is a bias term. We index with $i$ all variables that are specific to a particular frame $i$ . This frame specific feature $\pmb{f}_i$ is then fed into a small MLP $\phi(\cdot)$ , to compute the color $\pmb{c}_i$ as well as the opacity $\alpha_i$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {c} _ {i}, \alpha_ {i} = \phi (\boldsymbol {f} _ {i}, \psi (\boldsymbol {\mu})) \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\psi$ denotes sinusoidal positional encoding, the learned color is a 1D vector $c_{i}\in \mathbb{R}^{3(k + 1)^{2}}$ , and the learned opacity is a scalar $\alpha_{i}\in \mathbb{R}$ . As most of the dynamic effects are already captured by the per-Gaussian feature bases $\pmb{F}$ , we are able to use a very small MLP that does not compromise the rendering speed. Our MLP is composed of only two linear layers, each followed by LeakyReLU activation [53], where the hidden layer has 64 channels. The last layer consists of two branches, i.e. for color and opacity prediction. We use a sigmoid activation function at the + +end of the opacity branch to constrain it to be in its appropriate range [0,1]. As color and opacity are learned via the MLP, we omit them from the explicit. +optimizable Gaussian parameters. + +An alternative to blending in the latent space, would be to directly define a basis of explicit Gaussian parameters and similarly blend them based on the expression weights. However, as these values have an explicit meaning (i.e. color, position), a multiplication with expression weights that are not even learnable, makes this formulation limiting and prone to artifacts, as we also show in our ablation (Sec. 4.2, Ours $w / oMLP$ ). Interestingly, even though changing the centers and rotations of the Gaussian splats (instead of modifying opacity and colour) would be an intuitive mechanism when it comes to 3D Gaussian animation, our proposed approach results in much better performance (see Sec. 4.2, Ours $w/ \Delta(\mu, R)$ ). We additionally show that the proposed feature blending strategy is superior to the straight-forward approach of using the expression vector as a condition to the MLP (Ours $w / o$ blending). + +# 3.3 Rendering + +To render frame $i$ , we employ the respective expression $\pmb{e}_i$ to populate each Gaussian with expression-dependent color and opacity. Then, the Gaussians are rendered using the camera view $\pmb{W}_i$ , and similarly to Kerbl et al. [20] we perform the splatting technique on the primitives [57]. Given a viewing transform $\pmb{W}$ as well as the Jacobian of the affine approximation of the projective transformation $\pmb{J}$ , the covariance matrix $\pmb{\Sigma}'$ in camera coordinates can be obtained from + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {\prime} = \boldsymbol {J} \boldsymbol {W} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} \boldsymbol {W} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {J} ^ {T}. \tag {5} +$$ + +The Gaussian splats are then rendered via a tile-based differentiable rasterizer [20] that pre-sorts all primitives of an image at once. + +# 3.4 Optimization + +We initialize the 3D Gaussians centers with 2500 points. Whenever available, these points are a subset of vertices from the tracked 3DMM meshes (e.g. FLAME based data released by prior works [61,62]). As there is no mesh available for the data from Gao et al. [14], we sample random points within the given near and far bounds. Empirically we found that initializing the latent features $\pmb{F}$ with zeros led to the most stable solution. The model is optimized by rendering the learned Gaussians and comparing the resulting image $I_{\mathrm{r}}$ against the ground truth $I_{\mathrm{gt}}$ . We minimize the following loss objective + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \lambda_ {1} \mathcal {L} _ {1} \left(I _ {\mathrm {r}}, I _ {\mathrm {g t}}\right) + \lambda_ {s} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {S S I M}} \left(I _ {\mathrm {r}}, I _ {\mathrm {g t}}\right) + \lambda_ {p} \mathcal {L} _ {p} \left(I _ {\mathrm {r}}, I _ {\mathrm {g t}}\right) \tag {6} +$$ + +where the $\lambda$ s are weighting factors and $\mathcal{L}_p$ denotes the perceptual loss [19]. We optimize using Stochastic Gradient Descent [41] with a standard exponential decay scheduling for the Gaussian position centers $\mu$ as well as the MLP. + +Adaptive densification and pruning Following 3DGS [20], we combine our optimization with periodic steps of adaptive densification and pruning. First, this mechanism prunes Gaussians that are almost transparent, i.e. $\alpha < \tau_{\alpha}$ smaller than a threshold. Second, the densification targets areas that need to be populated with more Gaussians, represented with Gaussians that are too large, or regions that are too sparse and lack detail. Based on the observation that in both cases the position gradients have high values [20], the Gaussians that should be densified are identified utilizing the average gradient magnitude being above a threshold $\tau_{pos}$ . In the case of Gaussians that are too small, the objective is to increase volume and therefore the identified Gaussians are simply cloned, preserving their size. On the other hand, for Gaussians that are too large, the goal is to preserve the overall volume and therefore their scales are decreased by a factor of 1.6 after cloning, obtained empirically by [20]. + +# 3.5 Implementation Details + +The learning rates for the MLP $\phi(\cdot)$ , positions $\mu$ , latent features $\pmb{F}$ , scale $S$ and rotation $R$ are namely $1.6 \cdot 10^{-4}$ , $1.6 \cdot 10^{-4}$ , 0.0025, 0.005 and 0.001. We set the latent feature dimensionality to $f_{dim} = 32$ . For the FLAME tracking [62] we only use the first 52 expression weights, i.e. $B = 52$ . All Gaussians are fed as a single batch into the MLP. The $\mathcal{L}_p$ loss is based on a VGG network [44] and has a weight of $\lambda_p = 0.1$ , while $\lambda_1 = 0.8$ and $\lambda_s = 0.2$ . We activate the $\mathcal{L}_p$ loss after $10k$ iterations such that it does not conflict with photometric loss at the early stage of learning. To save computation, we apply $\mathcal{L}_p$ on the image region defined by the head bounding box. The densification starts after 500 iterations and stops with 15k iterations. In our experiments we use an SH degree of $k = 3$ . We train our models on one Tesla V100 GPU for $50k$ iterations taking about 1 hour. + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section we describe the evaluation protocol followed by quantitative and qualitative results in three different scenarios, e.g. same-subject novel expression and novel view rendering, as well as cross-subject expression driving. + +We evaluate our model on three datasets, made publicly available by recent works such as NeRFBlendShape (we dub this NBS data), INSTA, and PointAvatar. The NBS data [14] contains a set of monocular videos from 8 subjects, where the last 500 frames in each subject constitute the test set. The INSTA dataset [62] contains 10 subjects, with the last 350 frames of each sequence being the test set. We additionally evaluate on the 3 subjects made available by PointAvatar [61], where the test sets contain between 880 - 1800 frames per subject. For fairness of comparison, when training our method in all three datasets, we use the same splits and utilize the tracked data (head poses and expression weights) provided originally by the authors, such that tracking quality does not affect the comparison. To train our model we use a subset of about 1500 - 2500 frames from the training set of each subject.

+ +we report common metrics such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity (SSIM), Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS) [59] and the Mean Squared Error (L2). All metrics are computed using white background for non-face regions. Further, we report rendering times in seconds. We compare against common baselines such as NeRFBlendShape [14], INSTA [62], PointAvatar [61], NHA [16], IMAvatar [60], AvatarMAV [55], FLARE [4] and NeRFACE [13]. The evaluation is carried out using their official code repositories, as well as their official checkpoints whenever available. + +# 4.1 Same-Subject Novel Expression Driving + +Table 1 reports the results of the metric comparison against baselines on the respective test sets. The three different blocks show namely results on the data released by INSTA, NBS and PointAvatar. Figure 4 illustrates the qualitative comparison with the most recent baselines in all three datasets. We observe that the proposed method outperforms all baselines on the INSTA and NBS datasets in all metrics, with a PSNR gap of about 2 dB. Referring to Figure 4, we observe that HeadGaS leads to higher fidelity to ground truth, less artifacts, and identity preservation for all subjects. Interestingly, as INSTA relies on mesh deformations, it exhibits artifacts such as noticeable triangles on the skin surface (Figure 4a). Moreover, our model preserves better details, such as facial expressions, wrinkles, eyebrows, teeth and glass reflections, while other baselines [14,61,62] often struggle in such aspects. The comparison against the PointAvatar baseline shows that we are superior on the INSTA data by about 2 dB. On the 3 subjects of the PointAvatar dataset, our method surpasses the baseline in terms of LPIPS and SSIM, while having very similar PSNR. Overall, looking at both datasets, the performance of HeadGaS is superior to that of PointAvatar. Also qualitatively, we can see that PointAvatar results have distortions of some parts that undergo + +significant transformation, including inaccurate teeth deformation (Figure 4c). We believe that, as an explicit method, PointAvatar generalizes well for underobserved expressions (resulting in comparable PSNR). However, as these cases struggle with deformation realism (teeth wrongly deform in the same way as the mouth), the structural metrics are worse. Finally, as the table shows, we improve the rendering time of all baselines for 512 resolution by at least a factor of 10. We refer the reader to the supplement for more qualitative results and videos. + +# 4.2 Ablations + +In this section we ablate the HeadGaS components. First, we train a model that does not use learned features for blending, but rather a base of colors and opacities, and uses the expression weights to obtain the final color and opacity as a weighted average. We refer to this model as Ours $w / oMLP$ . In addition, since an intuitive alternative for dynamic Gaussians would be to deform the points (rather than adapting color and opacity) we introduce Ours $w / \Delta(\mu, R)$ , which uses the learned feature basis (and a similar MLP) to rather shift the positions $\mu$ and rotations $R$ . Additionally, we train a model that predicts color, opacity, as well as a $\mu$ and $R$ shift (Ours change all). Further, we run a model without the perceptual loss, i.e. Ours $w / o\mathcal{L}_p$ , to ablate its effectiveness. Additionally, to validate the contribution of using the expression parameters as a weight for blending Gaussian features, rather than a simple condition to the MLP, we ablate a variant named Ours $w / o$ blending. For fairness, we increase the capacity of this MLP until it plateaus. More details can be found in the supplement. + +Table 2 reports the quantitative evaluation of our model components. We observe that using the expression parameters as a simple condition (Ours $w/o$ blending) leads to noticeably inferior performance. In contrast to our model - which learns per-Gaussian dynamics via a feature basis - the per-subject MLP has to learn the face dynamics for all Gaussians at once, leading to poorer expression generalization, as can be also seen on Figure 5. Also, applying a transformation to the positions and rotations leads to worse results (Ours $w/ \Delta(\mu, R)$ ). We hypothesize this is because, in the context of 3DGS - which is relying on several heuristics - adding another dimension (in the form of spatial 3D motion) further complicates the already difficult optimization, resulting in geometrically inconsistent transformation (e.g. failure to preserve relative distances of points in the skin), especially for large motion. Figure 5 confirms these results and reveals floater artifacts and less accurate expressions. We also observe that allowing all parameters to change (Ours change all) increases the solution space and makes the heuristic-based 3DGS optimization more challenging, leading to blurrier results. Further, blending the explicit parameters directly (Ours $w/o$ MLP) leads to a worse performance than our neural variant. Despite a tighter PSNR gap, we notice a drastic visual effect on the highly dynamic areas, relevant to the blending, as illustrated in Figure 5. Finally, we see that adding a perceptual loss term $\mathcal{L}_p$ leads to an improvement in most metrics. We refer the reader to the supplement for video comparisons, as well as ablation on additional aspects such as number of Gaussians and speed. + +![](images/fa93df4327b16b694295fe86e5b1f079376be2a1189c7717cca4082a178b6337.jpg) +Fig. 4: Qualitative evaluation comparing the proposed model against INSTA [62], PointAvatar [61] and NeRFBlendShape [14] baselines, namely on the a) INSTA data, b) NBS data and c) PointAvatar data.

Thereby we render the same facial expression. We observe that our model can deliver expressions that are consistent across different views. Videos can be found in the supplement. + +# 4.4 Cross-Subject Expression Driving + +Figure 7 reports our cross-subject driving results, i.e. use the facial expression from another (ground truth) source subject to drive a target subject. Here we retain the original head pose of the target subject. As can be seen in the figure, our model is capable of transferring various expressions, e.g. talking, wink, surprise, across different subjects at a reasonable quality. + +# 5 Limitations and Ethical Consideration + +HeadGaS is affected by failures of the head tracker, which can take the form of inaccurate facial expressions, or blurriness in case of pose inaccuracy in the training data (Figure 8). Further, as a data driven method, HeadGaS requires a + +![](images/687bfdadcd0106a2ab72dac4b3efa471f6287e443e9059f0d588d60a4e531196.jpg) +Fig. 6: Rendering from various camera- Fig. 7: Cross-subject driving: rendering target era views for the same expressions subject with expression from the source subject + +![](images/f98a5df7274374832d28f97df113d8e4de4d4b1ac2ced15ee60520154fc92967.jpg) +Fig. 8: Limitations. Left: subjects only observed in neutral expression in non-frontal view. Right: Camera view that is far from the training observations. + +reasonable coverage of expressions across different views. For instance, if a head changes pose only in neutral expression, and diverse expressions are observed only in frontal view, it would be difficult to capture a non-neutral expression from a side view (Figure 8, left). Finally, a downside of HeadGaS is the memory consumption originating from the feature bases ( $B \times f_{dim}$ floats per Gaussian). + +The use of personal data should be handled carefully, and follow local regulations. We note that face reanimation can potentially be used to generate fake content, and convey misinformation. We do not condone such practises, and believe that the community should work accordingly towards mitigating the risks. + +# 6 Conclusion + +We presented HeadGaS, a model for animatable head reconstruction and rendering from a monocular video that renders on real-time. Our extensive evaluation showed that the proposed model results in state-of-the-art performance, clearly surpassing the baselines, while rendering on real-time frame rates (about 250 fps for a $512^2$ resolution). We justified our design choices via a set of ablations, where we demonstrated that linearly blending implicit features leads to less artifacts than the alternative of blending explicit parameters directly. Moreover, we have shown that changing colors and opacity is more effective than the intuitive alternative of transforming the Gaussian mean positions. Future work can be dedicated to improving the memory efficiency of the HeadGaS feature bases. + +# References + +1.

Thereby, the explicit models impose stronger constraints on the head surface, which allows for better expression and pose generalization, while making it more difficult to preserve photo realism, as they inherit the limitations and artifacts of the underlying representation (mesh, point cloud) as observed in Gao et al. [14] and also seen in our experiments (Fig. 4). With the recent success of neural radiance fields (NeRFs) [31], typically implicit models are based on a NeRF representation [13].

Very recently, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [20] emerged as a competitive alternative to NeRF, which leads to reasonable photo-realism while bringing the rendering speed to real-time rates. This is thanks to its representation as a set of 3D Gaussian primitives, with a more efficient space coverage compared to point clouds, combined with efficient tile-based rasterization.

This learned basis is multiplied with an input expression vector, and its sum is fed to a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) to yield the final color and opacity. This idea is inspired by traditional blendshape 3DMMs [6], and it can be interpreted as a latent-feature shape basis that is blended in the feature domain rather than directly in PCA space [5] or meshes [6]. Our model is simple and effective, and it can work with various 3DMM representations, as it does not explicitly model deformations with respect to a particular mesh topology.

Most related to our proposed method, are works that learn a dynamic, animatable 3D head model from a monocular video sequence that observes the head in various poses and facial expressions, and is capable to generate a novel expression or pose at test time. A line of works relies on explicit scene representations, such as meshes or point clouds [15, 16, 21, 61]. Neural Head Avatars [16] models the geometry and texture explicitly via a hybrid representation consisting of a coarse morphable model, followed by a neural based refinement that predict voxel offsets. PointAvatar [61] propose a deformable point-based representation, where all points have the same radius. Our 3D Gaussian set shares some similarity with a point cloud, yet it is more flexible. Each Gaussian can have its own radius, orientation and different axis lengths. Recently, FLARE [4] was proposed, a model that updates a traditional graphics pipeline with a few neural components.

With the goal of fast training, and interactive rendering, more recent works extend Instant-NGP [33] with head aware models. INSTA [62] use a tracked FLAME mesh as a geometrical prior to deform the points into canonical space, followed by Instant-NGP [33]. NeRFBlendShape [14] follow a different approach, that in contrast to most previous works does not rely on deformation. Instead, inspired by classic blendshape models for heads [6], they utilize a base of multi-level hash grid fields [33], where the model can be driven via a linear blending of such hash grid base with the expression vector.

Figure 4 illustrates the qualitative comparison with the most recent baselines in all three datasets. We observe that the proposed method outperforms all baselines on the INSTA and NBS datasets in all metrics, with a PSNR gap of about 2 dB. Referring to Figure 4, we observe that HeadGaS leads to higher fidelity to ground truth, less artifacts, and identity preservation for all subjects. Interestingly, as INSTA relies on mesh deformations, it exhibits artifacts such as noticeable triangles on the skin surface (Figure 4a). Moreover, our model preserves better details, such as facial expressions, wrinkles, eyebrows, teeth and glass reflections, while other baselines [14,61,62] often struggle in such aspects. The comparison against the PointAvatar baseline shows that we are superior on the INSTA data by about 2 dB. On the 3 subjects of the PointAvatar dataset, our method surpasses the baseline in terms of LPIPS and SSIM, while having very similar PSNR. Overall, looking at both datasets, the performance of HeadGaS is superior to that of PointAvatar.

In contrast to our model - which learns per-Gaussian dynamics via a feature basis - the per-subject MLP has to learn the face dynamics for all Gaussians at once, leading to poorer expression generalization, as can be also seen on Figure 5.

We hypothesize this is because, in the context of 3DGS - which is relying on several heuristics - adding another dimension (in the form of spatial 3D motion) further complicates the already difficult optimization, resulting in geometrically inconsistent transformation (e.g. failure to preserve relative distances of points in the skin), especially for large motion. Figure 5 confirms these results and reveals floater artifacts and less accurate expressions. We also observe that allowing all parameters to change (Ours change all) increases the solution space and makes the heuristic-based 3DGS optimization more challenging, leading to blurrier results.

Creating digital avatars from textual prompts has long been a desirable yet challenging task. Despite the promising results achieved with 2D diffusion priors, current methods struggle to create high-quality and consistent animated avatars efficiently. Previous animatable head models like FLAME have difficulty in accurately representing detailed texture and geometry. Additionally, high-quality 3D static representations face challenges in semantically driving with dynamic priors. In this paper, we introduce HeadStudio, a novel framework that utilizes 3D Gaussian splattering to generate realistic and animatable avatars from text prompts. Firstly, we associate 3D Gaussians with animatable head prior model, facilitating semantic animation on high-quality 3D representations. To ensure consistent animation, we further enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of HeadStudio in generating animatable avatars from textual prompts, exhibiting appealing appearances. The avatars are capable of rendering high-quality real-time ( $\\geq 40$ fps) novel views at a resolution of 1024. Moreover, These avatars can be smoothly driven by real-world speech and video.

In particular, Stable Diffusion [55] is a notable framework that trains the diffusion models on latent space, leading to reduced complexity and detail preservation. With the emergence of text-to-2D models, more applications have been developed [46, 68, 75], such as spatial control [61, 73, 78], concept control [18, 40, 56], and image editing [8].", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 462, + 784, + 568 + ], + "page_idx": 2 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Text-to-3D generation.

Creating digital avatars from textual prompts has long been a desirable yet challenging task. Despite the promising results achieved with 2D diffusion priors, current methods struggle to create high-quality and consistent animated avatars efficiently. Previous animatable head models like FLAME have difficulty in accurately representing detailed texture and geometry. Additionally, high-quality 3D static representations face challenges in semantically driving with dynamic priors. In this paper, we introduce HeadStudio, a novel framework that utilizes 3D Gaussian splattering to generate realistic and animatable avatars from text prompts. Firstly, we associate 3D Gaussians with animatable head prior model, facilitating semantic animation on high-quality 3D representations. To ensure consistent animation, we further enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of HeadStudio in generating animatable avatars from textual prompts, exhibiting appealing appearances. The avatars are capable of rendering high-quality real-time (\\(\\geq 40\\) fps) novel views at a resolution of 1024. Moreover, These avatars can be smoothly driven by real-world speech and video. We hope that HeadStudio can enhance digital avatar creation and gain popularity in the community.

Creating digital avatars from textual prompts has long been a desirable yet challenging task. Despite the promising results achieved with 2D diffusion priors, current methods struggle to create high-quality and consistent animated avatars efficiently. Previous animatable head models like FLAME have difficulty in accurately representing detailed texture and geometry. Additionally, high-quality 3D static representations face challenges in semantically driving with dynamic priors. In this paper, we introduce HeadStudio, a novel framework that utilizes 3D Gaussian splattering to generate realistic and animatable avatars from text prompts. Firstly, we associate 3D Gaussians with animatable head prior model, facilitating semantic animation on high-quality 3D representations. To ensure consistent animation, we further enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of HeadStudio in generating animatable avatars from textual prompts, exhibiting appealing appearances. The avatars are capable of rendering high-quality real-time ( $\geq 40$ fps) novel views at a resolution of 1024. Moreover, These avatars can be smoothly driven by real-world speech and video. We hope that HeadStudio can enhance digital avatar creation and gain popularity in the community.

At first, the image-based methods [11,81] are proposed to reconstruct the photo-realistic head avatar of a person, given one or more views. Recently, generative models (e.g. diffusion [55, 73]) have made unprecedented advancements in high-quality text-to-image synthesis. As a result, the research focus has been on text-based head avatar generation methods [21, 42], + +![](images/ee41a65436bd02e8f3a8fbbe3e5a0b38f307a1786293c08627a5ac61e6900b8d.jpg) +Fig. 1: Text-based animatable avatars generation by HeadStudio. With only one end-to-end training stage of 2 hours on 1 NVIDIA A6000 GPU, HeadStudio is able to generate animatable, high-fidelity and real-time rendering ( $\geq$ 40 fps) head avatars using text inputs. + +which have shown superiority over image-based methods in convenience and generalization. + +However, current text-based methods cannot combine high-quality and animation effectively. For instance, HeadSculpt [21] leverages DMTet [58] for high-quality optimization and creates highly detailed head avatars but is unable to be animated. TADA [41] employs SMPL-X [51] to generate animatable digital characters but sacrifices appearance quality. There is always a trade-off between static quality and dynamic animation within current methods. We attribute it to two prominent drawbacks: (1) Limitations in representation: the animatable head prior model struggles to model high-quality texture and geometry (refer to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6); (2) Challenges in optimization: aligning the static representation with the dynamic head prior is difficult (refer to Fig. 8). + +In this paper, we propose a novel text-based generation framework, named HeadStudio, by fully exploiting 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) [35], which achieves superior rendering quality and real-time performance for novel-view synthesis. Our method comprises two components: (1) Animatable Head Gaussian: We first arm FLAME [39], an animatable head prior model, with 3D Gaussian splatting by rigging each 3D Gaussian point to a mesh. As an animatable head Gaussian model, we use the head prior model, to deform 3D Gaussians and employ them for high-quality texture and geometry modeling. (2) Text to Avatar Optimization: We enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation, improving the visual appearance and animated quality. In specific, we introduce super-dense Gaussian initialization to thoroughly cover the head model for faster convergence and improved representation. To ensure the consistency of the control signal during animation-based training, we denoise the score distillation and utilize the MediaPipe [45] facial landmark map obtained from FLAME as a fine-grained condition for the diffusion model. To further improve the fidelity + +of our method, we utilize an adaptive geometry regularization, which gives animatable head Gaussian the ability to employ strict constraints for semantic deformation and represent elements beyond the FLAME space, such as helmets and mustaches simultaneously. + +Extensive experiments have shown that HeadStudio is highly effective and superior to state-of-the-art methods in generating dynamic avatars from text [21, 41, 48, 52, 64, 72]. Moreover, our methods can be easily extended to driving generated 3D avatars via both speech-based [69] and video-based [16] methods. Overall, our contributions can be summarized as follows. + +- To the best of our knowledge, we make the first attempt to incorporate 3D Gaussian splattering into the text-based dynamic head avatar generation. +- We propose HeadStudio, which arms animatable head prior model with 3DGS and enhances its optimization for creating high-fidelity and animatable head avatars. +- HeadStudio is simple, efficient, and effective. With only one end-to-end training stage of 2 hours on 1 NVIDIA A6000 GPU, HeadStudio is able to generate 40 fps high-fidelity head avatars. + +# 2 Related Work + +Text-to-2D generation. Recently, with the development of vision-language models [54] and diffusion models [27, 60], great advancements have been made in text-to-image generation (T2I) [26, 50, 70]. In particular, Stable Diffusion [55] is a notable framework that trains the diffusion models on latent space, leading to reduced complexity and detail preservation. With the emergence of text-to-2D models, more applications have been developed [46, 68, 75], such as spatial control [61, 73, 78], concept control [18, 40, 56], and image editing [8]. + +Text-to-3D generation. The success of the 2D generation is incredible. However, directly transferring the image diffusion models to 3D is challenging, due to the difficulty of 3D data collection. Recently, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) [5, 49] opened a new insight for the 3D-aware generation, where only 2D multiview images are needed in 3D scene reconstruction. Combining prior knowledge from text-to-2D models, several methods, such as DreamField [31], DreamFusion [52], and SJC [62], have been proposed to generate 3D objects guided by text prompt [38,79]. Moreover, the recent advancement of text-to-3D generation also inspired multiple applications, including text-guided scenes generation [15, 29], text-guided 3D editing [22, 33], and text-guided avatar generation [10, 32, 47, 66]. + +3D Head Generation and Animation. Previous 3D head generation is primarily based on statistical models, such as 3DMM [7] and FLAME [39], while current methods utilize 3D-aware Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) [4, 11, 12, 57, 59, 65, 74]. Benefiting from advancements in dynamic scene representation [9, 17, 19], animatable head avatars reconstruction has been improved. Given a monocular video or multi-view videos, these methods [37, 53, 67, 76, 77, 81] reconstruct a photo-realistic head avatar, and animate it based on FLAME. Specifically, our method was inspired by the technique [53, 81] of deforming 3D + +![](images/3406bfb8a771d0dc6adc7e3da0bd784a9758496fa375b01fca77fc88461aa332.jpg) +Fig. 2: Framework of HeadStudio, which integrates animatable head prior model into 3D Gaussian splatting and score distillation sampling. 1) Animatable Head Gaussian: each 3D point is rigged to a mesh, and then rotated, scaled, and translated by the mesh deformation. 2) Text to Avatar Optimization: enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation and regularization, including: super-dense Gaussian initialization, animation-based text-to-3D distillation, and adaptive geometry regularization. + +points through rigging with FLAME mesh. We enhance its deformation and optimization to adapt to score distillation-based learning. On the other hand, the text-to-static head avatar methods [21,42,63,72] show superiority in convenience and generalization. These methods demonstrate impressive texture and geometry, but are not animatable, limiting their practical application. Furthermore, TADA [41] and Bergman et al. [6] explore the text-to-dynamic head avatar generation. Similarly, we utilize FLAME to animate the head avatar, but we use 3DGS to model texture instead of the UV-map. + +# 3 Preliminary + +In this section, we provide a brief overview of text to head avatar generation. The generation process can be seen as distilling knowledge from a diffusion model $\epsilon_{\phi}$ into a learnable 3D representation $\theta$ . Given camera poses, the corresponding views of the scene can be rendered as images. Subsequently, the distillation method guides the image to align with the text description $y$ . + +Score Distillation Sampling has been proposed in DreamFusion [52]. For a rendered image $x$ from a 3D representation, SDS introduces random noise $\epsilon$ to $x$ at the $t$ timestep, and then uses a pre-trained diffusion model $\epsilon_{\phi}$ to predict the added noise. The SDS loss is defined as the difference between predicted and added noise and its gradient is given by + +$$ +\nabla_ {\theta} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {S D S}} = \mathbb {E} _ {t, \epsilon} [ w (t) (\epsilon_ {\phi} ^ {s} (x _ {t}; y, t) - \epsilon) \frac {\partial_ {x}}{\partial_ {\theta}} ], \tag {1} +$$ + +where $x_{t} = \alpha_{t}x_{0} + \sigma_{t}\epsilon$ and $w(t)$ is a weighting function, and $s$ is a pre-defined scalar of classifier-free guidance (CFG) [28]. The loss estimates and update di + +resection that follows the score function of the diffusion model to move $x$ to the text description region. + +3D Gaussian Splatting [35] is an efficient 3D representation. It reconstructs a static scene with anisotropic 3D Gaussians, using paired image and camera pose. Each point is defined by a covariance matrix $\pmb{\Sigma}$ centered at point $\pmb{\mu}$ : + +$$ +G (\mathbf {x}) = e ^ {- \frac {1}{2} (\mathbf {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu}) ^ {T} \boldsymbol {\Sigma} ^ {- 1} (\mathbf {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu})}. \tag {2} +$$ + +Kerbl et al. [35] construct the semi-definite covariance matrix by defining an ellipse using a scaling matrix $S$ and a rotation matrix $R$ , ensuring that the points have meaningful representations: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Sigma} = \boldsymbol {R} \boldsymbol {S} \boldsymbol {S} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {R} ^ {T}. \tag {3} +$$ + +The shape and position of a Gaussian point can be represented by a position vector $\pmb{\mu} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , a scaling vector $\pmb{s} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , and a quaternion $\pmb{q} \in \mathbb{R}^4$ . Note that we refer $\pmb{R}$ to represent the corresponding rotation matrix. Meanwhile, each 3D Gaussian point has additional parameters: color $\pmb{c}$ and opacity $\pmb{\alpha}$ , used for splatting-based rendering. Therefore, a scene can be represented by 3DGS as $\theta_{3DGS} = \{\pmb{\mu}, \pmb{s}, \pmb{q}, \pmb{c}, \pmb{\alpha}\}$ . Given a camera view, the scene can be rendered by the 2D projection of Gaussians via a differentiable tile rasterizer. In optimization, the gradient of Gaussians is utilized to guide the densification and prune of Gaussians. We refer readers to [13, 35] for more details. + +# 4 Method + +HeadStudio is a text-to-dynamic head avatar geneartion method. The created head avatars can be animated by text, speech, and video. As illustrated in Fig. 2, the generation pipeline has two key components, including (1) the animatable head Gaussian in Sec. 4.1, and (2) text to avatar optimization in Sec. 4.2. Implementation details are discussed in Sec. 4.3 + +# 4.1 Animatable Head Gaussian + +Animatable Head Prior Model. FLAME [39] is a vertex-based linear blend skinning (LBS) model, with $N = 5023$ vertices and 4 joints (neck, jaw, and eyeballs). The head animation can be formulated by a function: + +$$ +M (\boldsymbol {\beta}, \boldsymbol {\gamma}, \boldsymbol {\psi}): \mathbb {R} ^ {| \boldsymbol {\beta} | \times | \boldsymbol {\gamma} | \times | \boldsymbol {\psi} |} \to \mathbb {R} ^ {3 N}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\beta \in \mathbb{R}^{|\beta|}$ , $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}^{|\gamma|}$ and $\psi \in \mathbb{R}^{|\psi|}$ are the shape, pose and expression parameters, respectively (we refer readers to [39,44] for the blendshape details). + +Recent works have successfully achieved semantic alignment between FLAME and various modalities, such as speech [23, 69] and talking videos [16, 80]. Therefore, existing text-to-dynamic avatar generation methods [6, 41] commonly choose FLAME [39] as the base model. As a result, the created avatars can be semantically animated. However, the mesh number of FLAME is struggled to model + +complex textures. For example, Bergman et al. [6] learns one color for each mesh. It inspires us to arm FLAME with 3D Gaussian points [35] for high-quality texture modeling. + +Deformable Gaussian Texture. To mitigate the limitations of animatable head prior model, we use 3D Gaussian points to model the texture. The key point is to make sure these points can be deformed semantically by the head prior model. Following Qian et al. [53], we assume every 3D Gaussian point is connected with a FLAME mesh. The FLAME mesh moves and deforms the corresponding points. Given pose and expression, the FLAME mesh can be calculated by Eq. (4). Then, we quantify the mesh triangle by its center position $\pmb{t}$ , rotation matrix $\tilde{\pmb{R}}$ and area $a$ , which describe the triangle's location, orientation and scaling in world space, respectively. Among them, the rotation matrix is a concatenation of one edge vector, the normal vector of the triangle, and their cross-product. Formally, we deform the corresponding 3D Gaussian point as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {R} ^ {\prime} = \tilde {\boldsymbol {R}} \boldsymbol {R}, \quad \boldsymbol {\mu} ^ {\prime} = \sqrt {a} \tilde {\boldsymbol {R}} \boldsymbol {\mu} + \boldsymbol {t}, \quad \boldsymbol {s} ^ {\prime} = \sqrt {a} \boldsymbol {s}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mu^{\prime}$ , $s^{\prime}$ and $R^{\prime}$ are the position vector, scaling vector and rotation matrix of the deformed Gaussian for rendering. Intuitively, the 3D Gaussian point will be rotated, scaled, and translated by the mesh triangle. In this way, Gaussians can be seen as a residual term of FLAME to represent intricate geometry and texture. As a result, FLAME enables the 3DGS to animate semantically, while 3DGS improves the texture representation and rendering efficiency of FLAME. + +Joint Learning of Shape, Texture, Animation. The intricate texture can be modeled by the deformable Gaussian texture $\theta_{\mathrm{3DGS}}$ . Besides, we assume the shape of head prior model $\theta_{\mathrm{FLAME}} = \{\beta\}$ is learnable. The learnable shape allows for modeling character more precisely. For example, characters like the Hulk in Marvel have larger heads, whereas characters like Elsa in Frozen have thinner cheeks. Meanwhile, we notice that excessive shape updates can negatively impact the learning process of 3DGS due to deformation changes. Thus, we stop the shape update after a certain number of training steps to ensure stable learning of 3DGS. As a result, a head avatar can be represented by an animatable head Gaussian as $\theta = \theta_{\mathrm{FLAME}} \cup \theta_{\mathrm{3DGS}}$ . + +# 4.2 Text to Avatar Optimization + +To jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation of an animatable head Gaussian, we enhance its optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization, respectively. + +Super-dense Gaussian Initialization. The supervision signal of SDS loss [52] in head avatar generation is sparse. It inspires us to initialize 3D Gaussians that thoroughly cover the head model for faster convergence and improved representation. In specific, each mesh triangle is initialized with $K$ evenly distributed points. The positions of the deformed 3D Gaussians $\pmb{\mu}'$ are calculated by sampling on the FLAME model (with standard pose), with all mesh triangles sharing the same sampling weight. The deformed scaling $s'$ is the + +square root of the mean distance of its K-nearest neighbor points. Then, we initialize the position and scaling of 3D Gaussians by the inversion of Eq. (5): $\pmb{\mu}_{init} = \tilde{\pmb{R}}^{-1}((\pmb{\mu}' - \pmb{t}) / \sqrt{a}); \pmb{s}_{init} = \pmb{s}' / \sqrt{a}$ . The other learnable parameters in $\theta_{3DGS}$ are initialized following vanilla 3DGS [35]. + +Animation-based Text-to-3D Distillation. The vanilla text-to-3D distillation [52] produces satisfactory performance in static but falls short in animation. We attribute it to the absence of new poses and expressions in training. Therefore, we design a new text-to-3D distillation that adapts to animation. + +Training with Animations. We first incorporate the new pose and expression into training [41,71]. Specifically, we sample pose and expression from real-world motion sequences, such as TalkSHOW [69], to ensure that the avatar satisfies the textual prompts with a diverse range of animation. + +FLAME-based Control Generation. Training with animations is crucial for dynamic avatar generation. However, the direct introduction of new pose and expression results in Janus (multi-faces) problem [30], due to the data bias in the diffusion model. This issue, represented as portrait bias with front-view, straight-looking, and closed mouths, hinders its application in animation-based distillation. To address this issue, we introduce the MediaPipe [45] facial landmark map $C$ , a fine-grained control signal marking the regions of upper lips, lower lips, eye boundary, eyeballs, and facial boundary [21,42], for more precise and detailed guidance. It can be extracted from an animatable head Gaussian, which ensures that the control signal aligns well with the Gaussian points when the shape, pose, and expression change. The loss gradient is formulated as: + +$$ +\nabla_ {\theta} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {S D S}} = \mathbb {E} _ {t, \epsilon , \boldsymbol {\gamma}, \boldsymbol {\psi}} [ w (t) \left(\epsilon_ {\phi} ^ {s} \left(x _ {t}; y, C, t\right) - \epsilon\right) \frac {\partial_ {x}}{\partial_ {\theta}} ]. \tag {6} +$$ + +Denoised Score Distillation. According to our experiments, we find the generated avatars have non-detailed and over-smooth textures. To solve this issue, we consider the distilled score to be noisy [24, 34, 64]. Hertz et al. [24] indicates that the score can be seen as the noise when the rendered image matches the textual prompt. Following NFSD [34], we assume the score with a large timestep $t \geq 200$ is noisy, and the rendered image can be seen as matching the negative textural prompts, such as $y_{\mathrm{neg}} =$ "unrealistic, blurry, low quality, out of focus, ugly, low contrast, dull, dark, low-resolution, gloomy". Besides, the score with a small timestep $t < 200$ is relatively clean. As a result, we reorganize the SDS into a piece-wise function: + +$$ +\nabla_ {\theta} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {S D S}} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \mathbb {E} _ {t, \epsilon , \gamma , \psi} [ w (t) \epsilon_ {\phi} ^ {s} (x _ {t}; y, C, t) \frac {\partial_ {x}}{\partial_ {\theta}} ], & \mathrm {t} < 2 0 0, \\ \mathbb {E} _ {t, \epsilon , \gamma , \psi} [ w (t) (\epsilon_ {\phi} ^ {s} (x _ {t}; y, C, t) - \epsilon_ {\phi} ^ {s _ {n e g}} (x _ {t}; y _ {\text {n e g}}, C, t)) \frac {\partial_ {x}}{\partial_ {\theta}} ], & \mathrm {t} \geq 2 0 0, \end{array} \right. \tag {7} +$$ + +where $s_{neg}$ is a pre-defined CFG scalar for negative textual prompts. Intuitively, we get a cleaner score to improve the avatar's texture. + +Adaptive Geometry Regularization. To deform semantically, the 3D Gaussians should closely align with the rigged mesh triangle. Introducing a regularization term for the 3D Gaussians, such as $\| \pmb{\mu}\| _2$ , will lead to the 3D Gaussians being + +overly concentrated around the mesh center. Thus, the regularization should inversely scale with the triangle size. For instance, in the eye and mouth region, where the mesh triangle is small, the rigged Gaussians should have a relatively small scaling and position. Following Qian et al. [53], we introduce the position and scaling regularization. For each triangle, we initially calculate the maximum distance among its center $t$ and three vertices, termed as $\tau$ , to describe the triangle size. Then, we formulate the regularization term as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {p o s}} = \left\| \max (\left\| \sqrt {a} \boldsymbol {R} ^ {\prime} \boldsymbol {\mu} \right\| _ {2}, \tau_ {\mathrm {p o s}}) \right\| _ {2}, \qquad \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {s}} = \left\| \max (\sqrt {a} \boldsymbol {s}, \tau_ {\mathrm {s}}) \right\| _ {2}, \qquad (8) +$$ + +where $\tau_{\mathrm{pos}} = 0.5\tau$ and $\tau_{\mathrm{s}} = 0.5\tau$ are the experimental position tolerance and scaling tolerance, respectively. + +The regularization term effectively aligns 3D Gaussians with FLAME. It ensures that the 3D Gaussians are positioned around the mesh triangle and can be semantically deformed. However, it also restricts animatable head Gaussian from modeling elements outside the space of FLAME in some cases, such as Thor's helmet and Kratos's long mustache, which are essential parts of their identities. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 3, we observe that these elements are located on mesh triangles with large areas. This observation inspires us to introduce the area $a$ as an adaptive factor: + +![](images/da3917feef1952d1303a6585704751865136477941235d880f9503d9326712d9.jpg) +Fig. 3: Visualization of Mesh Area. + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {r e g}} = \left(\lambda_ {\text {p o s}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p o s}} + \lambda_ {\mathrm {s}} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {s}}\right) / \sqrt {a}, \tag {9} +$$ + +where $\lambda_{\mathrm{pos}} = 0.1$ and $\lambda_{\mathrm{s}} = 0.1$ . Through regularization, the avatar demonstrates its ability for semantic deformation and modeling complex appearance. + +# 4.3 Implementation Details + +Animatable Head Gaussian Details. In 3DGS, Kerbl et al. [35] employs a gradient threshold to filter points that require densification. Nevertheless, the original design cannot handle textual prompts with varying gradient responses. To address this, we utilize a normalized gradient to identify the points with consistent and significant gradient responses. Furthermore, the cloned and split points will inherit the same mesh triangle correspondence of their parent [53]. The densification and pruning iterations setting are following [43]. The FLAME's shape size is $|\pmb{\gamma}| = 300$ , the expression size is $|\psi| = 100$ and the pose size is $|\pmb{\gamma}| = 3 \times 4$ (neck, jaw, left eyeball and right eyeball). + +Text to Avatar Optimization Details. We initialize animatable head Gaussian with $K = 10$ per triangle. Besides, we commonly set $s = 7.5$ and $s_{\text{neg}} = 1$ in animation-based text-to-3D distillation [34]. In our experiment, we default to using Realistic Vision 5.1 (RV5.1) [3] and ControlNetMediaPipeFace [1,73]. To alleviate the multi-face Janus problem, we also use the view-dependent prompts [30]. Training Details. The framework is implemented in PyTorch and threestudio [20]. We employ a random camera sampling strategy with camera distance range of [1.5, 2.0], a fovy range of $[40^\circ, 70^\circ]$ , an elevation range of $[-30^\circ, 30^\circ]$ , + +![](images/d7c6e3fe8d137e8b09918e6128be55be7c237b89babc883c7139ba6bd1efc8d6.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparison with the text-to-static avatar generation methods. Our approach excels at producing high-fidelity head avatars, yielding superior results. + +and an azimuth range of $[-180^{\circ}, 180^{\circ}]$ . We train head avatars with a resolution of 1024 and a batch size of 8. The entire training consists of 10,000 iterations. The overall framework is trained using the Adam optimizer [36], with betas of [0.9, 0.99], and learning rates of 5e-5, 1e-3, 1e-2, 1.25e-2, 1e-2, and 1e-3 for mean position $\pmb{\mu}$ , scaling factor $vs$ , rotation quaternion $\pmb{q}$ , color $\pmb{c}$ , opacity $\pmb{\alpha}$ , and FLAME shape $\beta$ , respectively [43]. Note that we stop the FLAME shape optimization after 8,000 iterations. The entire optimization process takes around two hours on a single NVIDIA A6000 (48GB) GPU. + +# 5 Experiment + +Evaluation. We evaluate the quality of head avatars with two settings. 1) static head avatars: producing a diverse range of avatars based on various text prompts. 2) dynamic head avatars: driving an avatar with FLAME sequences sampled in TalkSHOW [69]. + +![](images/83ccae18880ed44e03d95d3a1de3bf9eb6d9769c848c11b4a0bf5a1b570a416d.jpg) +Fig. 5: Comparison with the text-to-dynamic avatar generation method TADA [41] in terms of semantic alignment and rendering speed.

[6]. Both approaches are based on FLAME and utilize it for animation. + +# 5.1 Head Avatar Generation + +Static Head Avatar Generation. We evaluate the avatar generation quality in terms of geometry and texture. In Fig. 4, we evaluate the geometry through novel-view synthesis. Comparatively, the head-specialized methods produce avatars with superior geometry compared to the text-to-3D methods [14, 48, 52, 64]. This improvement can be attributed to the integration of FLAME, a reliable head structure prior, which mitigates the multi-face Janus problem [30] and enhances the geometry. + +On the other hand, we evaluate the texture through quantitative experiments using the CLIP score [25]. This metric measures the similarity between the given textual prompt and the generated avatars. A higher CLIP score indicates a closer match between the generated avatar and the text, highlighting a more faithful texture. Following Liu et al. [42], we report the average CLIP score of 10 text prompts. Tab. 1 demonstrates that HeadStudio outperforms other methods in three different CLIP variants [54]. Overall, HeadStudio excels at producing high-fidelity head avatars, outperforming the state-of-the-art text-based methods. + +Dynamic Head Avatar Generation. We evaluate the efficiency of animation in terms of semantic alignment and rendering speed. For the evaluation of semantic alignment, we visually represent the talking head sequences, which are controlled by speech [69]. In Fig. 5, we compare HeadStudio with TADA [41]. + +![](images/7d67d3f228ffb6546a5557e9d63883d8f0d921a1630c86a90b8396ba46ab02ca.jpg) +Fig. 7: Ablation Study of Super-dense Gaussian Initialization and Adaptive Geometry Regularization. Super-dense Gaussian initialization enhances the representation ability. Geometry regularization imposes a strong restriction to reduce the outline points. The adaptive factor in geometry regularization balances restriction and expressiveness. + +The yellow circles in the first row indicate a lack of semantic alignment in the mouths of Hulk and Geraldt, resulting in misplaced mouth texture. Our approach achieves excellent semantic alignment and smooth expression deformation. On the other hand, our method enables real-time rendering. When compared to TADA, such as Kratos (52 fps vs. 3 fps), our method demonstrates its potential in augmented or virtual reality applications. Furthermore, the comparison in Fig. 6 indicates the semantic alignment of the method proposed by Bergman et al. [6]. But it lacks in terms of its representation of appearance and geometry. + +# 5.2 Ablation Study + +We isolate the various contributions and conducted a series of experiments to assess their impact. In particular, we examine the design of super-dense Gaussian initialization, animation-based text-to-3D distillation, and adaptive geometry regularization. At last, we discuss the effect of different diffusion models. + +Effect of Super-dense Gaussian Initialization. In Fig. 7, we present the effect of super-dense Gaussian initialization. Since the SDS supervision signal is sparse, super-dense Gaussian initialization enhances point coverage on the head model, leading to a favorable initialization and improved avatar fidelity. + +Effect of Animation-based Text-to-3D Distillation. As illustrated in Fig. 8, we visualize the effect of each component in text to avatar optimization. Our method shows the improvements in the following three aspects: 1) Shape (a vs. c): FLAME offers precise control signals to address multi-face issues, ensuring ID consistency. 2) Texture (a vs. d): Denoised score distillation alleviates the over-smoothing problem in texture by eliminating unnecessary gradients. 3) Animation (a vs. b): Training with animations is crucial for artifact elimination (highlighted in yellow box) in deformation. + +Effect of Adaptive Geometry Regularization. In Fig. 7, we also present the effect of adaptive geometry regularization. Firstly, adaptive geometry regulariza + +![](images/0448bd008a296e9751a223b0969b2bbc9fd27e71d106566f8e67500ad4911306.jpg) +Fig. 8: Ablation Study of Animation-based Text-to-3D Distillation. We investigate the effects of training with animation, FLAME-based control, and denoised score distillation. These approaches are dedicated to improving the semantic accuracy of score distillation. As a result, animation-based text-to-3D distillation achieves an effective alignment, leading to an accurate expression deformation. + +![](images/b83fb970f8d7671bc9a0be0b8a66990f2996ac7887f5e76aaf57e94083f0bb79.jpg) +Fig.9: Ablation Study of Different Diffusion Models. We investigate the effects of different diffusion models, including the Stable Diffusion v2.1 (SD2.1) and Stable Diffusion v1.5 (SD1.5). + +tion could reduce the outline points. Nevertheless, overly strict regularization weaken the representation ability of animatable head Gaussian, such as the beard of Kratos (fourth column in Fig. 7). To address this, we introduce an adaptive scale factor to balance restriction and expressiveness based on the area of mesh triangle. Consequently, the restriction of Gaussian points rigged on jaw mesh has been reduced, resulting in a lengthier beard for Kratos (third column in Fig. 7). + +Effect of Different Diffusion Models. In this paper, we use Realistic Vision 5.1 (RV5.1) [3] as the default diffusion model. Compared to SD2.1 [55] and SD1.5, we observe that RV5.1 is capable of producing head avatars with a more visually appealing appearance. Meanwhile, we show the results of using SD2.1 (same as TADA [41]) and SD1.5 in Fig. 9. HeadStudio can generate avatars with better semantic alignment (texture alignment in mouths) and faster rendering speed (53 fps vs. 3 fps) compared with TADA [41]. + +![](images/43b556f0e0b06beac83f835e1d8f800c69295801c48f1eddd6fd8694bd81f82b.jpg) +I am a boy with facial painting. ...

Audio-based animation is a widely used technology in conference calls and virtual social presence. To realize it, we combine our framework with TalkSHOW [69] to translate human speech to FLAME sequences. Text-based animation can be used for creating talking head videos. We further expand the audio-based animation framework with a text-to-speech method PlayHT [2]. As shown in Fig. 10, the animation results are semantically aligned with the text input, showing its potential for real-world applications. We recommend the reader evaluate the performance through the supplementary videos. + +# 6 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose HeadStudio, a novel pipeline for generating high-fidelity and animatable 3D head avatars using 3D Gaussian Splatting. We arm the animatable head prior model with 3DGS for intricate texture and geometry modeling. Additionally, we enhance its optimization process from initialization, distillation, and regularization to simultaneously learn shape, texture, and animation, resulting in visually pleasing and high-quality animated avatars. Extensive evaluations demonstrated that our HeadStudio produces high-fidelity and animatable avatars with real-time rendering, outperforming state-of-the-art methods significantly. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported in part by the National Key R&D Program of China under Grant 2022ZD0160101, the National Natural Science Foundation of China (U2336212), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (No. 226-2022-00051), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (No. 226-2024-00058), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Zhejiang Provincial Universities (No. 226-2024-00208), the “Leading Goose” R&D Program of Zhejiang Province under Grant 2024C01101, and the China Postdoctoral Science Foundation (524000-X92302). + +# References + +1.

Creating digital avatars from textual prompts has long been a desirable yet challenging task. Despite the promising results achieved with 2D diffusion priors, current methods struggle to create high-quality and consistent animated avatars efficiently. Previous animatable head models like FLAME have difficulty in accurately representing detailed texture and geometry. Additionally, high-quality 3D static representations face challenges in semantically driving with dynamic priors. In this paper, we introduce HeadStudio, a novel framework that utilizes 3D Gaussian splattering to generate realistic and animatable avatars from text prompts. Firstly, we associate 3D Gaussians with animatable head prior model, facilitating semantic animation on high-quality 3D representations. To ensure consistent animation, we further enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of HeadStudio in generating animatable avatars from textual prompts, exhibiting appealing appearances. The avatars are capable of rendering high-quality real-time (" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 258, + 452, + 488 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\geq 40" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 258, + 452, + 488 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " fps) novel views at a resolution of 1024.

There is always a trade-off between static quality and dynamic animation within current methods.

As an animatable head Gaussian model, we use the head prior model, to deform 3D Gaussians and employ them for high-quality texture and geometry modeling. (2) Text to Avatar Optimization: We enhance the optimization from initialization, distillation, and regularization to jointly learn the shape, texture, and animation, improving the visual appearance and animated quality. In specific, we introduce super-dense Gaussian initialization to thoroughly cover the head model for faster convergence and improved representation.

Recently, with the development of vision-language models [54] and diffusion models [27, 60], great advancements have been made in text-to-image generation (T2I) [26, 50, 70]. In particular, Stable Diffusion [55] is a notable framework that trains the diffusion models on latent space, leading to reduced complexity and detail preservation. With the emergence of text-to-2D models, more applications have been developed [46, 68, 75], such as spatial control [61, 73, 78], concept control [18, 40, 56], and image editing [8]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 9 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 481, + 570 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 481, + 570 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 481, + 570 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Text-to-3D generation.

Recently, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) [5, 49] opened a new insight for the 3D-aware generation, where only 2D multiview images are needed in 3D scene reconstruction. Combining prior knowledge from text-to-2D models, several methods, such as DreamField [31], DreamFusion [52], and SJC [62], have been proposed to generate 3D objects guided by text prompt [38,79]. Moreover, the recent advancement of text-to-3D generation also inspired multiple applications, including text-guided scenes generation [15, 29], text-guided 3D editing [22, 33], and text-guided avatar generation [10, 32, 47, 66]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 10 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 570, + 481, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 570, + 481, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 570, + 481, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "3D Head Generation and Animation.

Benefiting from advancements in dynamic scene representation [9, 17, 19], animatable head avatars reconstruction has been improved. Given a monocular video or multi-view videos, these methods [37, 53, 67, 76, 77, 81] reconstruct a photo-realistic head avatar, and animate it based on FLAME.

Collaborative perception effectively expands the perception range of agents by sharing perceptual information, and it addresses the occlusion problem in single-vehicle perception. Most of the existing works are based on the assumption of perception model homogeneity. However, in actual collaboration scenarios, agents use different perception model architectures, which leads to differences in the size, number of channels and semantic space of intermediate features shared among collaborators, bringing challenges to collaboration. We introduce Hetecooper, a collaborative perception framework for scenarios with heterogeneous perception models. To model the correlation between heterogeneous features, we construct the feature collaboration graph, which completely preserves the semantic information and spatial information of features. Furthermore, a message passing mechanism based on graph transformer is designed to transfer feature messages in the feature collaboration graph. Firstly, the number of node channels and the semantic space are unified by the semantic mapper. Then, the feature information is aggregated by the edge weight guided attention, and finally the fusion of heterogeneous features is realized.

Collaborative perception effectively expands the perception range of agents by sharing perceptual information, and it addresses the occlusion problem in single-vehicle perception. Most of the existing works are based on the assumption of perception model homogeneity. However, in actual collaboration scenarios, agents use different perception model architectures, which leads to differences in the size, number of channels and semantic space of intermediate features shared among collaborators, bringing challenges to collaboration. We introduce Hetecooper, a collaborative perception framework for scenarios with heterogeneous perception models. To model the correlation between heterogeneous features, we construct the feature collaboration graph, which completely preserves the semantic information and spatial information of features. Furthermore, a message passing mechanism based on graph transformer is designed to transfer feature messages in the feature collaboration graph. Firstly, the number of node channels and the semantic space are unified by the semantic mapper. Then, the feature information is aggregated by the edge weight guided attention, and finally the fusion of heterogeneous features is realized.

Collaborative perception has gained extensive attention in recent years. By sharing perception information such as images and lidar point clouds among agents, it expands the perception range of the agents, thereby providing support for safer driving decisions. Early work on multiagent collaborative perception was done by sharing initial sensing information [16, 17, 21, 23, 25, 43] (early fusion) or detection results [24, 32] (late fusion) between agents to achieve collaboration.

In terms of perceptual model heterogeneity, Xu [34] employs a learnable feature resizer to align features across multiple dimensions and a sparse cross-domain transformer for domain adaptation to fuse heterogeneous features.

Collaborative perception effectively expands the perception range of agents by sharing perceptual information, and it addresses the occlusion problem in single-vehicle perception. Most of the existing works are based on the assumption of perception model homogeneity. However, in actual collaboration scenarios, agents use different perception model architectures, which leads to differences in the size, number of channels and semantic space of intermediate features shared among collaborators, bringing challenges to collaboration. We introduce Hetecooper, a collaborative perception framework for scenarios with heterogeneous perception models. To model the correlation between heterogeneous features, we construct the feature collaboration graph, which completely preserves the semantic information and spatial information of features. Furthermore, a message passing mechanism based on graph transformer is designed to transfer feature messages in the feature collaboration graph. Firstly, the number of node channels and the semantic space are unified by the semantic mapper. Then, the feature information is aggregated by the edge weight guided attention, and finally the fusion of heterogeneous features is realized. Test results demonstrate that our method achieves superior performance in both model homogeneity and heterogeneity scenarios, and also has good scalability to the change of feature size. + +Keywords: Collaborative perception $\cdot$ Autonomous driving $\cdot$ Graph transformer + +# 1 Introduction + +Collaborative perception has garnered significant attention in recent years. By sharing perception information among agents, it can significantly expand the perception range of agents. In the field of autonomous driving, it can effectively mitigate the occlusion and blind spot issues that are difficult to solve in single vehicle perception, and provide crucial support for safer driving decisions. + +According to the type of perceptual information shared among agents, collaborative perception can be divided into early fusion [16, 21, 43], which involves sharing initial sensor sensing data. Intermediate fusion [4, 8, 13, 18, 29, 35, 37], involves sharing intermediate features extracted from perceptual models. Late fusion [24, 32], involves sharing model detection results. Among these, intermediate fusion has gradually become the focus of attention due to the more favorable performance-bandwidth trade-off. + +Existing work on collaborative perception largely assumes the isomorphic of perception models. However, in collaborative perception, the heterogeneity of perception models used by different agents is an issue that cannot be ignored. Particularly in intermediate fusion methods, when the architectures of perception models differ, the dimensions, number of channels, and semantic spaces of intermediate features shared between agents also vary. How to seamlessly fuse heterogeneous features remains a challenge. Existing methods [15,34] align heterogeneous features by first matching feature dimensions through interpolation/convolution methods, then aligning feature spaces using attention mechanisms or fine-tuning encoders, and finally integrating the features within a unified semantic space using the original fusion module. However, the interpolation/convolution methods used to align feature sizes approximate the features, leading to information loss during the fusion process. + +To address the issue of information loss in heterogeneous feature fusion, we introduce Hetecooper, a framework for heterogeneous collaboration based on intermediate fusion. The graph structure is leveraged to model the correlation between heterogeneous features: The feature points are used as graph nodes, with edges established between nodes that have spatial correlation, and this spatial correlation is quantified as the edge weight to construct the feature collaboration graph. Furthermore, a method based on the graph transformer is designed to transfer feature messages within the feature collaboration graph: First, the semantic mapper is used to unify the channel number and semantic space of graph nodes. Then, attention is directed to aggregate the information of features by utilizing edge weights, that is, the fusion of heterogeneous features is realized. + +Experimental results indicate that Hetecooper achieves optimal performance in the scenarios of model homogeneity and model heterogeneity. Moreover, the trained collaborative model can also adapt well to small changes in feature size/number of channels without adaptation. Our contributions are: + +- We propose a collaborative perception framework Hetecooper, suitable for scenarios with heterogeneous perception models. By constructing a feature collaboration graph to model the correlations between heterogeneous features, Hetecooper can integrally preserve the semantic information and spatial information between features, achieving seamless fusion. +- To transmit messages in the feature collaboration graph, we design a graph transformer method. Use edge weights containing spatial information to guide attention weights, nodes can assign higher weights to information that is more beneficial for collaboration. + +- The design of the semantic mapper and the construction method of the feature collaboration graph allow Hetecooper to automatically adapt to minor changes in feature size and channel number without the need for adaptation, providing good scalability. + +- Experimental results demonstrated that Hetecooper exhibits excellent performance in the scenarios of model homogeneity and model heterogeneity. Moreover, it shows good scalability to minor variations in feature. + +# 2 Related Work + +Collaborative Perception. Collaborative perception has gained extensive attention in recent years. By sharing perception information such as images and lidar point clouds among agents, it expands the perception range of the agents, thereby providing support for safer driving decisions. Early work on multiagent collaborative perception was done by sharing initial sensing information [16, 17, 21, 23, 25, 43] (early fusion) or detection results [24, 32] (late fusion) between agents to achieve collaboration. However, in these two approaches, the early fusion will bring large bandwidth consumption, and the late fusion has low accuracy. Recently work [8, 11-14, 19, 28, 29, 35, 41] shares intermediate feature outputs (intermediate fusion) of perception models between participating collaborative vehicles and fuses features from different agents using attention [1], transformer [27] and other methods, and achieved a good performance-bandwidth trade-off. In this paper, the collaborative perception between heterogeneous agents is realized based on intermediate fusion. + +Heterogeneous Agents Collaboration. Several studies have initiated explorations into the issue of heterogeneity in collaborative perception. V2X-ViT [37] addresses the heterogeneity of sensor device architecture by heterogeneous multi-agent self-attention to fuse information across various devices. HM-ViT [31] concentrates on the heterogeneity of perceptual data modalities, designing a 3D graph attention method to learn fusion weights separately for the different correlations between multi-modal features, effectively fusing the feature from camera and lidar modalities. In terms of perceptual model heterogeneity, Xu [34] employs a learnable feature resizer to align features across multiple dimensions and a sparse cross-domain transformer for domain adaptation to fuse heterogeneous features. This paper emphasizes the collaboration of agents when the perception model is heterogeneous. Lu [15] designed a novel extensible collaborative perception framework to align features of collaborators into a unified feature space for collaboration. However, the aforementioned methods cause a loss of feature information due to the interpolation/convolution techniques used when merging features of different sizes. This paper achieves lossless fusion of heterogeneous features by constructing a feature collaboration graph. + +Graph Transformer. The transformer's exceptional performance in natural language processing and vision has led to several attempts to apply transformer mechanisms to graph neural networks [3, 26, 30, 42].

This improves the efficiency of message passing between graph nodes. Rampašek et al.

In this paper, we design an improved graph transformer method that assigns position codes containing spatial information to nodes and uses edge weights to guide message passing, thereby achieving efficient fusion of heterogeneous features. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Problem Statement + +The observational information of the $N$ collaborating agents and the corresponding perception supervision labels are denoted as $\mathcal{O}_i$ and $\mathcal{Y}_i$ , $i = 1,2,\dots,N$ , respectively.

(a) shows the construction process of the feature collaboration graph, (b) shows the feature collaboration graph from the BEV perspective under two different parameter settings, with the background being the point cloud observation data. + +point, the challenge of intermediate fusion lies in how to precisely and efficiently fuse heterogeneous intermediate features. A simple approach is to first align the channel number and semantic space of intermediate features by 1x1 convolution, and then align the feature size by sampling/convolution. After unify the feature representation, use existing homogeneous collaborative methods such as [8,37], etc to fuse feature. However, an obvious problem with this approach is that the sampling/convolution process approximately computes the heterogeneous features and loses feature information. + +To address this issue, we conduct an in-depth analysis of the physical significance of intermediate features. The observation encoders [10,39,44] extract BEV (Bird's Eye View) features through the following process: First, use voxel grids of the same size to partition the point cloud observation data. Then, a feature representation is extracted within each grid, and these features are combined according to their spatial relationships to obtain the 3D features $\mathcal{F} \in R^{C_0 \times Z \times H \times W}$ . Finally, the features are concatenated along the Z-dimension, which is perpendicular to the ground, to obtain the shared BEV features $\mathcal{F}_{\text{bev}} \in R^{(C_0 * Z) \times H \times W}$ . Hence, each feature point in the intermediate features corresponds to information from a specific pillar region in the real world. + +When the collaborating agents use heterogeneous perception models, the voxel grid sizes of the ego agent and the collaborating agents (neb) differ, leading to different BEV feature representations for the same real-world region. We analyze the real-world region, ego features, and neb features together, as shown in Fig. 2. In the figure, the yellow and blue points represent the feature points in the ego and neb BEV features, respectively. The dashed columns in Fig. 2a and the dashed grids in Fig. 2b represent the entire pillar regions and their bases corresponding to the feature points, respectively. Black lines connect the feature points whose corresponding pillar regions intersect. It is evident that the pillar regions corresponding to the feature points of the ego and neb intersect but do not completely overlap, indicating a complex spatial correlation. + +We use a graph structure to describe this relationship: feature points are treated as graph nodes, and edges are established between ego and neb nodes whose corresponding pillar regions intersect, constructing a feature collaboration graph. Subsequently, the graph transformer method is used to propagate and aggregate feature messages within the feature collaboration graph, achieving the fusion of heterogeneous features. Since the initial feature points are directly used as graph nodes when constructing the feature collaboration graph, this method ensures no information loss during the fusion process. The details of graph construction and Graph Transformer fusion will be introduced in Sec. 3.3. + +# 3.3 Framework + +The heterogeneous collaborative perception framework Hetecooper proposed in this paper is illustrated in Fig. 1, including five stages: observation information encoding, feature sharing, feature collaboration graph construction, feature fusion, and detection output. Initially, the agent uses an observation encoder to extract BEV features. Subsequently, leveraging a spatial confidence map [8], it filters out reliable features to share with collaborators. Once feature sharing is complete, the agent constructs a feature collaboration graph based on the spatial relationships between its own features and those of the collaborators. The graph transformer is then used to propagate the collaborators' feature information to itself, achieving the fusion of heterogeneous features. Finally, the fused features are input into the detection head to obtain detection outputs, thus completing one cycle of the heterogeneous collaborative perception process. + +Observation Encoding. The agent extracts the BEV feature representation from the initial sensor data $\mathcal{O}_i$ by using the observation encoder $\mathcal{H}_{enc_i}(\cdot)$ . Firstly, voxelization is applied to the point cloud, followed by the extraction of feature representations within each voxel grid. Then, the feature representations are connected to form complete BEV feature representations. Subsequently, further refinement is achieved through a 2D backbone network (such as ResNet [7], etc.), resulting in the final BEV feature representations $\mathcal{F}_i = \mathcal{H}_{enc_i}(\mathcal{O}_i) \in \mathbb{R}^{C_i \times H_i \times W_i}$ . The $\mathcal{H}_{enc_i}(\cdot)$ can be any existing observation encoder framework, such as Point-Pillar [10], SECOND [39], etc. + +Feature Sharing. Heterogeneous agents share intermediate features. To enhance the efficiency of heterogeneous feature fusion, agents utilize a spatial confidence map generator $\mathcal{H}_{conf_i}(\cdot)$ (sharing parameters with the Detection Head) to filter critical information from the BEV features $\mathcal{F}_i$ . First, use $\mathcal{H}_{conf_i}(\cdot)$ to compute a spatial confidence map [8] $\mathcal{C}_i = \mathcal{H}_{enc_i}(\mathcal{F}_i) \in [0,1]^{H_i \times W_i}$ (regions with confidence below a threshold are set to 0, and those above the threshold are set to 1). Then, perform element-wise multiplication between $\mathcal{C}_i$ and feature $\mathcal{F}_i$ to obtain key information $\mathcal{I}_i = \mathcal{C}_i \odot \mathcal{F}_i \in \mathbb{R}^{C_i \times H_i \times W_i}$ for transmission and broadcast it to collaborators, thus completing the feature sharing process. + +Feature Collaboration Graph Construct. Establish a feature collaboration graph between ego features $\mathcal{F}_i$ and information $\mathcal{I}_{j\longrightarrow i}\subset \mathcal{F}_j$ received from neighboring (neb) agents based on spatial relationships between feature points. First, according to the relative position relationship between ego and neb, warp the neb information $\mathcal{I}_{j\longrightarrow i}$ into a view centered on ego. Subsequently, compute the base range of the pillar region $\mathcal{M}(\mathcal{P})$ corresponding to feature points $\mathcal{P}_m^i\in \mathcal{F}_i$ in $\mathcal{F}_i$ and feature points $\mathcal{P}_n^j\in \mathcal{I}_j\longrightarrow i$ in $\mathcal{I}_{j\longrightarrow i}$ based on model parameter settings (see detailed process in Sec. 6.1 in Appendix). Through $\mathcal{M}(\mathcal{P})$ , we can determine the spatial correlations between feature points, thereby constructing a feature collaboration graph, specific method is as follows: + +If feature points $\mathcal{P}_n^j$ from neb and feature points $\mathcal{P}_m^i$ from ego correspond to overlapping base areas of pillar regions or their center point distance is less than threshold, that is, satisfying either of the following two conditions: + +$$ +S \left(\mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {m} ^ {i}\right) \cap \mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {n} ^ {j}\right)\right) > 0 \tag {2} +$$ + +$$ +d i s \left(\mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {m} ^ {i}\right), \mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {n} ^ {j}\right)\right) < D \tag {3} +$$ + +then ego node $\mathcal{P}_m^i$ and neb node $\mathcal{P}_n^j$ is called to have a spatial correlation, and is added to the node set $\mathcal{V}$ . And edge $e_{mn}(\mathcal{P}_m^i,\mathcal{P}_n^j)$ is added to the edge set $\mathcal{E}$ . + +Where $\cap$ represents the overlapping area between the base regions of two cylindrical areas, $S(\cdot)$ represents the calculation of the area of the spatial region base, $D$ is the maximum distance threshold, and $dis(\cdot)$ represents the calculation of the distance between the center points of the base regions of two cylindrical areas. The setting of criterion Eq. (3) is aimed at establishing correlations between ego feature points and a broader range of neb feature points, providing additional reference information for collaboration. + +Furthermore, we refer to Eq. (2) as spatial correlation and Eq. (3) as proximity distance, quantifying each of them separately to assign weights to the edges in feature collaboration graph. + +Spatial correlation: The ratio of the overlapping area of the base regions of cylindrical areas corresponding to ego and neb nodes to the area of the base region corresponding to ego nodes. + +$$ +s p c _ {m n} = \frac {S \left(\mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {m} ^ {i}\right) \cap \mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {n} ^ {j}\right)\right)}{S \left(\mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {m} ^ {i}\right)\right)} \tag {4} +$$ + +where $S(\cdot)$ represents the area of the bottom surface of the calculated spatial region, $\mathcal{M}(\cdot)$ denotes the corresponding spatial region of nodes, and $\cap$ signifies the overlap between the two regions. + +Distance proximity: The components of the distance between the center points of the pillar regions corresponding to ego and neb nodes along the two coordinate axes: + +$$ +d x _ {m n} = a b s \left(x _ {n} - x _ {m}\right) \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +d y _ {m n} = a b s \left(y _ {n} - y _ {m}\right) \tag {6} +$$ + +where $(x_{m},y_{m})$ and $(x_{n},y_{n})$ represent the coordinates of the center points of the spatial regions corresponding to nodes $\mathcal{P}_m^i$ and $\mathcal{P}_n^j$ , respectively. The coordinate system takes the ego as the origin, and the front and right sides of the ego are positive for the y-axis and square for the x-axis, respectively. Here, the two components of the distance are added to the edge weights respectively in order to better distinguish the relative positions of the nodes in the corresponding spatial regions. + +Finally, by combining spatial similarity and distance proximity, we get the weights of edge $e_{mn}$ : + +$$ +e _ {m n} = \left(s p c _ {m n}, d x _ {m n}, d y _ {m n}\right) \tag {7} +$$ + +![](images/d9f4ed5c39b83780976c33deb413db4b28070fecb2bc553edc4aa73ec8b0224b.jpg) +Fig. 3: Detailed design of the graph transformer based fusion module + +Feature Fusion. The Graph Transformer has gained popularity due to its exceptional ability to handle complex patterns. In light of this, we have designed a fusion module $\mathcal{H}_{\text{fuse}_i}(\cdot)$ based on the graph transformer to pass and aggregate messages in feature collaboration graph. As per the analysis in [22], the key to designing an effective graph transformer lies in distinguishing the positional encoding of nodes and ensuring an efficient message passing mechanism. To achieve this, we assign a positional encoding to the nodes that is related to the spatial distance, and then guide the nodes' attention through the edge weights, assigning higher weights to nodes that contribute more beneficial information to collaboration, thereby enhancing the efficiency of feature message propagation. Fig. 3 illustrates the detailed structure of the fusion module $\mathcal{H}_{\text{fuse}_i}(\cdot)$ . + +Node Semantic Space Unify. Ego nodes and neb nodes originate from different features, exhibiting differences in channel count and semantic space. Initially, we align the feature representation of neb nodes with those of ego nodes using a semantic mapping module $\mathcal{H}_{\text{map}_i}(\cdot)$ . $\mathcal{H}_{\text{map}_i}(\cdot)$ is designed with reference to [2] and requires separate adaptation for the Observation Encoder of each architecture. Additionally, before the features are input into $\mathcal{H}_{\text{map}_i}(\cdot)$ , they pass through a channel aligner module to automatically adapt to minor variations in the number of channels. Detailed design is in Sec. 6.2 in Appendix. + +Node Positional Encoding. As analyzed in Sec. 3.2, each feature point in the BEV features corresponds to information within a certain pillar region in the real world. We introduce position encodings related to spatial information for the nodes $\mathcal{P}$ to distinguish between different nodes. If the number of channels for node $\mathcal{P}$ is $C$ , and the distance from the center of the base of the corresponding + +pillar region to the center of the ego agent is $D_{\mathcal{P}}$ , then its positional encoding is calculated as follows: + +$$ +P E \left(D _ {\mathcal {P}}\right) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \sin \left(D _ {\mathcal {P}} / 1 0 0 0 0 ^ {\frac {2 c}{C}}\right), c = 2 k \\ \cos \left(D _ {\mathcal {P}} / 1 0 0 0 0 ^ {\frac {2 c}{C}}\right), c = 2 k + 1 \end{array} \right. \tag {8} +$$ + +Subsequently, we process $PE(D_{\mathcal{P}})$ through a fully connected layer $f$ and add it to the node $\mathcal{P}$ to obtain the node representation with distance information. + +$$ +\mathcal {P} = \mathcal {P} + f (P E (D _ {\mathcal {P}})) \tag {9} +$$ + +Edge weights guide attention. Aggregating neb node information into the ego node. For an ego node $\mathcal{P}_m^i$ , if the set of its neighboring nodes in the feature collaboration graph is denoted as $\mathcal{A}_m$ , then for each $\mathcal{P}_n^j \in \mathcal{A}_m$ , we first calculate the initial attention weight: + +$$ +a _ {m n} = \frac {W _ {Q} \mathcal {P} _ {m} ^ {i} \odot W _ {K} \mathcal {P} _ {n} ^ {j}}{\sqrt {C}} \tag {10} +$$ + +where $W_{Q} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times C}$ and $W_{K} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times C}$ are used to generate the query and key vectors, respectively. $C$ denotes the number of channels in the node representation, and $\odot$ signifies the execution of the Hadamard Product on the vector. + +Then, we compute the corrective term of attention derived from the edge weights $e_{mn} = (spc_{mn}, dx_{mn}, dy_{mn})$ : + +$$ +c _ {m n} = \frac {\left(s p c _ {m n} + 1\right)}{2} \cdot \left(P E \left(d x _ {m n}\right) \mid \mid P E \left(d y _ {m n}\right)\right) \tag {11} +$$ + +where $PE(\cdot)$ denotes the positional encoding, calculated in the same way as in Eq. (8), with the value of $C$ set to half the number of feature channels of the node. $||$ denotes the concatenation of two vectors. By concatenating the vectors obtained from the cosine and sine decomposition of the proximity in distance $dx_{mn}$ and $dy_{mn}$ , we obtain a vector with the same dimensions as the nodes. This vector is then multiplied by the spatial correlation $spc_{mn}$ plus 1 and divided by 2, resulting in the attention weight correction term $c_{mn}$ . Adding 1 to $spc_{mn}$ is to prevent the inability to utilize edge weight information when $spc_{mn}$ is 0. Dividing by 2 is to normalize the value after adding 1 to $spc_{mn}$ . + +After passing through the fully connected layer $g$ , the attention modifier $c_{mn}$ is added to $a_{mn}$ , yielding the final attention weight $w_{mn}$ : + +$$ +w _ {m n} = a _ {m n} + g \left(c _ {m n}\right) \tag {12} +$$ + +Subsequently, the value vectors of all ego's adjacent nodes $\mathcal{P}_n^j \in \mathcal{A}_m$ are multiplied by the weights $w_{mn}' = \text{soft max}_n(w_{mn})$ , obtained from $w_{mn}$ by softmax normalization, and obtain the ego node that aggregates the neb information: + +$$ +\mathcal {P} I _ {m} ^ {i} = \sum_ {n \in \mathcal {A} _ {m}} w _ {m n} ^ {\prime} W _ {V} \mathcal {P} _ {n} ^ {j} \tag {13} +$$ + +where $W_{V}\in \mathbb{R}^{C\times C}$ are used to generate the value vector. + +Finally, the updated node representation $\mathcal{P}_m^i$ is reassembled according to its index in the ego feature $\mathcal{F}_i$ , that is, the ego feature $\mathcal{F}_{ij}$ after fusing neb information $\mathcal{I}_j \longrightarrow i$ is obtained. + +Multi-scale collaboration. To capture the correlation between the voxel-level and the target contour level within the heterogeneous features, we integrate neb information across various scales. We employ the Split-atten method [40] to combine the fusion results $\mathcal{F}_{ij}^{s}$ , where $s = 1,2,\dots,S$ , from different scales to obtain $\mathcal{F}_{ij}' = \mathrm{Split}\left(\left\{\mathcal{F}_{ij}^{s}\right\}_{s=1}^{S}\right)$ . The detailed process is in Sec. 6.4 in Appendix. + +Finally, we perform cross-attention between the ego and each neb's fused feature $\mathcal{F}_{ij}^{\prime}$ , and by applying a feed forward layer, we derive the ego feature that integrates all neb information: + +$$ +\mathcal {F} _ {i} ^ {\prime} = \operatorname {F e e d F o r w a r d} \left(\operatorname {A T T E N} \left(\mathcal {F} _ {i j} ^ {\prime}\right)\right), j \in \mathcal {N} _ {i} \tag {14} +$$ + +Detection Output. The detection results $\mathcal{D}_i = \mathcal{H}_{head_i}(\mathcal{F}_i') \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 7}$ are decoded from the fused features $\mathcal{F}_i'$ . Here, $\mathcal{D}_i = (cls, x, y, z, len, \cos \theta, \sin \theta)$ represents the rotation box with categories, the elements in the parentheses denote the class, position coordinates, target length, and rotation angle, respectively. + +# 3.4 Training + +The training of Hetecooper is divided into two steps. In the first step, the model is set to be homogeneous, learning all model parameters. In the second step, the model is set to be heterogeneous, keeping the parameters of observation encoder $\mathcal{H}_{enc_i}(\cdot)$ unchanged, while adapting a set of parameters of fusion module $\mathcal{H}_{fuse_i}(\cdot)$ and detection head $\mathcal{H}_{head_i}(\cdot)$ for each architecture. Both training steps use the loss between the detection outputs and the labels for supervised training. + +$$ +L = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} L _ {\det } \left(\mathcal {D} _ {i}, \mathcal {Y} _ {i}\right) \tag {15} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{D}_i$ is the detection output, $\mathcal{Y}_i$ presents the label of the observation information $\mathcal{O}_i$ corresponding to agent $i$ , and $L_{\mathrm{det}}$ denotes the detection loss. + +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Dateset + +OPV2V.

+ +# 4.2 Experimental Setup + +Architecture of observation encoder. The architectures included in this study are PointPillar [10], SECOND [39], and VoxelNet [44]. The default voxel grid sizes in model parameters for these architectures are set to [0.4, 0.4, 0.4], [0.4, 0.4, 0.4], and [0.1, 0.1, 0.1] (in meters), respectively. + +Baseline. We compare Hetecooper with HM-ViT [31], MDPA [34](which is applied in Where2comm), Where2comm [8] and F-cooper [4]. The latter two fusion methods are designed under the assumption of model homogeneity and cannot directly fuse heterogeneous features. Therefore, we first use the simple method mentioned in Sec. 3.2 to align the feature representations, and then use the originally designed fusion module to integrate the features from the collaborators, detailed procedures and training methods are in Sec. 6.3 in Appendix. + +# 4.3 Quantitative Analysis + +Observation encoder architecture heterogeneity. As shown in Tab. 1, we compare the performance of Hetecooper with other collaborative methods when observation encoder architectures are heterogeneous. It is evident that Hetecooper outperforms the others under conditions of model heterogeneity (lines 4-7), effectively minimizing the impact of heterogeneity on collaboration. This is because Hetecooper constructs the feature collaboration graph by directly using feature points as graph nodes, preserving the complete feature information, whereas other methods approximate the features, leading to information loss. On the other hand, the attention mechanism, guided by edge weights, enhances the efficiency of feature information transfer. And assign higher weights to the information that is more beneficial for collaboration at the nodes. + +Besides, under conditions of model homogeneity (lines 1-3), Hetecooper also achieves the best performance at AP@0.5. This is because the feature collab + +oration graph, when constructed, includes all neb nodes within the distance threshold in the attention scope of the ego node, providing a wealth of reference information for collaboration. Here, we do not compare with HEAL [15], this is because HEAL collaborates in a negotiated common feature space, whereas other methods collaborate directly in the local semantic space, which is unfair. + +Table 2: Parameter settings. observation encoder architecture is PointPillar + +

+ +Extensibility. In order to test the scalability of Hetecooper when there are small differences in the size and number of channels of shared features due to different parameter settings with the same model architecture, we compare Hetecooper with MDPA. During training, the parameters of the ego node were set to $p1$ and adapted with the neb nodes set to $p2$ to obtain the fusion model. + +Since the nodes in the feature collaboration graph are directly taken from the initial intermediate features and are independent of feature size, and the design of the channel aligner allows Hetecooper to adapt to any number of feature channels, the trained Hetecooper collaboration model can automatically adapt to minor variations in feature size and channel count without requiring further adaptation. We directly collaborated the fusion model adapted with $p2$ with the neb settings $p3$ , $p4$ , and $p5$ . The results are shown in Tab 4. It is evident that Hetecooper outperforms MDPA when collaborating with neb whose parameters are set as $p2$ , $p3$ , and $p5$ , demonstrating better adaptability to minor variations in size and channels. + +Localization Error Robustness. We further evaluated the performance of Hetecooper and the baseline in scenarios with localization errors, as depicted in Fig. 4. As the localization error increases, the performance of all collaboration methods declines. However, Hetecooper consistently outperforms the others. + +![](images/159a0e367e962051b05fb943c1e7c3a85c71f0cddf7c16a562fa05bf0c9bb634.jpg) +Fig. 4: Robustness to positioning errors.

Fig. 6 shows the process of constructing a feature collaboration graph. In the scene, the ego vehicle is moving from the ramp to the main road and cannot see the vehicles in the red circle due to road obstruction. The ego's collaborator neb are on the main road, and the vehicles within the red circle are within the field of its view. Fig. 6b and Fig. 6d display the feature representations taken by the ego and neb, respectively. Fig. 6c presents the representation of neb features after being refined by the semantic mapping module, highlighting that the semantic mapping module can significantly reduce the semantic difference between ego and neb. Upon receiv- + +ing the neb features, ego creates a collaborative feature graph using the spatial correlation between feature points. We sum up the attention correction terms calculated by Eq. (11) between the ego node and all its neighbors to obtain a one-dimensional matrix and visualize it, as is shown in Fig. 6e. As observed, the feature collaboration graph incorporates the features of vehicles within the red circle into its nodes, effectively filling the blind spots in the ego's field of view. + +# 4.5 Ablation Studies + +Ablation Study with Feature Fusion Modules. To test each component's impact in the graph transformer, we integrated node position encoding (NPE), multi-scale fusion (MS), and edge weight-guided attention (EGA) into the graph transformer step by step. We then evaluated their collaborative performance under both model heterogeneity (PointPillar for ego, SECOND for neb) and model homogeneity conditions (PointPillar for both ego and neb), as shown in Tab. 3. All components were found to improve the collaboration effect under model heterogeneity and homogeneity. This is because the positional encoding introduces distance information to the nodes, effectively differentiating between different nodes; multi-scale fusion creating feature collaboration graphs at different scales, richer correlations among heterogeneous features are modeled; edge weight-guided attention allows nodes to assign higher weights to information that is more beneficial for collaboration. These components collectively improve the efficiency of feature message passing and aggregation in the graph transformer, thereby enhancing collaborative performance. + +Number of Agents. Fig. 5 displays Hetecooper's performance under both model heterogeneity and homogeneity conditions as the maximum number of vehicles in the scene changes. It's observed that Hetecooper's performance improves as the number of vehicles increases. This improvement is attributed to the fact that more vehicles offer more reference information for collaboration. However, in some instances, detection accuracy declines as the number of vehicles grows. This may be due to the inconsistency in feature representations among different collaborators, which interferes with originally effective information during the fusion process, leading to a decrease in fusion accuracy. + +# 5 Conclusion + +This paper is focused on addressing the issue of collaborative perception in scenarios involving heterogeneous perception models. We introduce Hetecooper, a framework for heterogeneous collaborative perception that relies on intermediate fusion. The feature collaboration graph is employed to model the correlation among heterogeneous features, thereby preserving the entirety of the semantic information and spitial information. To improve the efficiency of feature message passing in the feature collaboration graph, we designed an improved Graph Transformer method that uses edge weights to guide attention weights, enabling the lossless and efficient fusion of heterogeneous features. Extensive experiments show the superior performance and good practicability of the proposed method. + +# Acknowledgments + +This work was supported in part by the National Key Research and Development Program of China under Grant 2023YFB4301904, in part by the Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 62102041, Grant 62272053 and Grant 62001054, in part by the Young Elite Scientists Sponsorship Program by China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) under Grant 2022QNRC001, and in part by the Beijing Nova Program under Grant 20230484364. + +# References + +1.

Collaborative perception effectively expands the perception range of agents by sharing perceptual information, and it addresses the occlusion problem in single-vehicle perception. Most of the existing works are based on the assumption of perception model homogeneity. However, in actual collaboration scenarios, agents use different perception model architectures, which leads to differences in the size, number of channels and semantic space of intermediate features shared among collaborators, bringing challenges to collaboration. We introduce Hetecooper, a collaborative perception framework for scenarios with heterogeneous perception models. To model the correlation between heterogeneous features, we construct the feature collaboration graph, which completely preserves the semantic information and spatial information of features. Furthermore, a message passing mechanism based on graph transformer is designed to transfer feature messages in the feature collaboration graph. Firstly, the number of node channels and the semantic space are unified by the semantic mapper. Then, the feature information is aggregated by the edge weight guided attention, and finally the fusion of heterogeneous features is realized. Test results demonstrate that our method achieves superior performance in both model homogeneity and heterogeneity scenarios, and also has good scalability to the change of feature size." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Collaborative perception " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Autonomous driving " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 511, + 453, + 533 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Graph transformer" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 585, + 482, + 646 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 585, + 482, + 646 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 585, + 482, + 646 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Collaborative perception has garnered significant attention in recent years.

In terms of perceptual model heterogeneity, Xu [34] employs a learnable feature resizer to align features across multiple dimensions and a sparse cross-domain transformer for domain adaptation to fuse heterogeneous features.

In the H GSL stage, we learn the graph structure by predicting the types of different directed edges.

Existing methods either exploit context information or emphasize knowledge prior to model the scene graph in a fully-connected homogeneous graph framework. However, these methods may lead to indiscriminate message passing among graph nodes (i.e., objects), resulting in suboptimal performance. In this paper, we propose a 3D Heterogeneous Scene Graph Prediction (3D-HetSGP) framework, which performs graph reasoning on the 3D scene graph in a heterogeneous fashion. Specifically, our method consists of two stages: a heterogeneous graph structure learning (H GSL) stage and a heterogeneous graph reasoning (HGR) stage. In the H GSL stage, we learn the graph structure by predicting the types of different directed edges. In the HGR stage, message passing among nodes is performed on the learned graph structure for scene graph prediction.

Existing methods either exploit context information or emphasize knowledge prior to model the scene graph in a fully-connected homogeneous graph framework. However, these methods may lead to indiscriminate message passing among graph nodes (i.e., objects), resulting in suboptimal performance. In this paper, we propose a 3D Heterogeneous Scene Graph Prediction (3D-HetSGP) framework, which performs graph reasoning on the 3D scene graph in a heterogeneous fashion. Specifically, our method consists of two stages: a heterogeneous graph structure learning (H GSL) stage and a heterogeneous graph reasoning (HGR) stage. In the H GSL stage, we learn the graph structure by predicting the types of different directed edges. In the HGR stage, message passing among nodes is performed on the learned graph structure for scene graph prediction. Extensive experiments show that our method achieves comparable or superior performance to existing methods on 3DSSG dataset. + +Keywords: 3D scene understanding $\cdot$ 3D scene graph prediction $\cdot$ Heterogeneous graph + +# 1 Introduction + +3D Scene Graph Prediction (SGP) in point clouds has become an emerging research topic in 3D scene understanding, with broad applications including VR/AR [24], robotic navigation [19], and autonomous driving. Different from common tasks of 3D scene understanding such as 3D semantic segmentation [4,9,13,15,16] and object detection [10,11,35,42], 3D SGP aims to recognize the semantic categories of objects and predict their semantic and spatial relationships. It typically constructs a directed scene graph whose nodes and edges represent objects and the relationships between connected objects. + +Although remarkable progress has been made in recent years, 3D SGP remains highly challenging as 1) 3D point cloud data is typically sparse and irregular in spatial dimension. In particular, the appearance information (e.g., RGB) is no longer available, which makes it hard to capture the visual pattern. 2) The relationships between objects are intricate and diverse. According to the definition of 3DSSG [28], the predicates of these relationships are divided into three + +![](images/4f9180d2ac8cc6bc78644d0c0996d548f1b692ee7fd34c2639ffd74b5e103842.jpg) +(a) An example of 3DSSG [28]. + +![](images/ae352b173686433492502e7733da0e2c8e9daa5fa409aefba3c53f3479da12ed.jpg) +(b) Homogeneous vs. heterogeneous graph. +Fig. 1: (a) Three different types of relationships constitute the complex 3D scene graph. The colors of edges indicate the predicate super-categories: support, proximity, and comparative. (b) Message passing on homogeneous and heterogeneous graphs. + +distinct super-categories: support, proximity, comparative (as shown in Table 1). Relationship support implies the semantic support of an object to a subject, which is a kind of one-way relationship. Relationship proximity and comparative are both bilateral and multi-class relations. These three completely different types of relationships constitute the complex 3D scene graph. As shown in Fig. 1a, there are multiple relationships among chairs such as same as, close by, left/right, lower/higher than. Furthermore, these relationships also suffer from the long-tail class distribution issue. The above factors make fine-grained classification of relationships challenging. + +To tackle these problems, most existing methods either exploit contextual information [28, 31, 39] or incorporate prior knowledge [3, 30, 41] to reduce prediction bias. Although these methods achieve promising performance, they still cannot obtain satisfactory results with fine-grained classification of multiple and long-tailed relationships due to the message passing process: (1) The traditional message passing mechanism treats all intricate relations equally, making it difficult to fully capture rich structural and semantic information. (2) The message passing is performed indiscriminately on fully-connected graph, which can lead to low-discriminative features after multiple iterations due to the accumulation of redundancy and bias. + +To this end, we have re-analyzed the graph structure and the message passing process (see Figure 1b). We found that the 3D scene graph in existing methods is regarded as a fully-connected homogeneous graph, consisting of only single-type nodes and edges. However, there are three different types of edges (predicates) defined in a 3D scene graph. Performing message passing on a homogeneous graph without distinguishing different types of relationships is not an effective solution. Therefore, we employ a more suitable graph data structure (i.e., heterogeneous graph) to represent the 3D scene graph. Different from a homogeneous graph, a heterogeneous graph is allowed to have more than one types of nodes or edges, which is good at embedding rich semantic and structural information. First, the model can learn one type of relationship independently without being affected by irrelevant types of relationships, reducing the complexity of + +Table 1: Three types of relationships defined in the 3DSSG dataset [28]. + +

+ +the relationship. Second, during the graph message passing stage, features are propagated discriminately and reasonably on different types of edges without incoming features from irrelevant neighbors, reducing semantic confusion and redundancy of features. + +Motivated by this, we propose a 3D heterogeneous scene graph prediction (3D-HetSGP) framework based on the heterogeneous graph neural network. We formulate the 3D scene graph as a heterogeneous graph, in which the edges are treated differently according to their types: Support, Proximity, Comparative. We conduct graph message passing on high-confidence edges of different types. First, we propose a Heterogeneous Graph Structure Learning (HGLS) method to predict the type confidence score as edge weights to build a heterogeneous graph. We divide the graph into three types of sub-graphs with different type edges instead of fully-connected. Then, we propose a Heterogeneous Graph Reasoning (HGR) network to perform type-weighted message passing on the heterogeneous graph, in order to avoid redundant and confusing message passing during the graph reasoning process. Finally, to reduce the difficulty of classification, we utilize hierarchical classifiers. The 26 categories of predicates are divided into 3 types. The types of predicates are classified at first and then the categories of each type are classified separately. + +The main contributions of this work are summarized as follows: (1) We are the first to formulate 3D scene graph as a heterogeneous graph, which is more naturally consistent with human understanding to the real world. (2) We propose a heterogeneous graph structure learning method to construct the heterogeneous graph by learning the type edges among objects. (3) We propose a heterogeneous graph reasoning network, which reduces redundant and confusing accumulation through reasoning on heterogeneous graph. (4) Extensive experiments on the 3DSSG dataset illustrate that 3D SGP can achieve superior performance by leveraging the heterogeneity of graph. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 2D Image Scene Graph Generation + +The concept of scene graph is first mentioned in image retrieval [6]. With the development of large-scale scene graph datasets like Visual Genome [7], plenty of research works are proposed [8,25,26,32,34,38], achieving excellent image-based scene graph generation performance. There are two different ways of SGG: two-stage and one-stage paradigms. Traditional methods [25,26,32,34,38] follow the + +two-stage paradigm that consists of object detection and relation prediction. In the object detection stage, they usually employ a detector such as Faster R-CNN [18] to detect objects. In the relation prediction stage, they focus on exploiting contextual information by a message passing neural network and collecting more external prior knowledge [37] to reduce the complexity of prediction. As for one-stage image-based SGG models, recent works [8, 22] were proposed to jointly optimize the object detection and relation prediction in an end-to-end network. Compared to 2D SGG, few works have been developed for its 3D counterpart, which provides more spatial geometric information to describe the 3D real world. + +# 2.2 3D Point Cloud Scene Graph Prediction + +Thanks to the release of the 3DSSG dataset [28], 3D SGP has attracted a lot of attention recently. Wald et al. [28] proposed the first baseline network for 3D scene graph prediction, SGPN, which is an end-to-end network based on Graph Neural Network (GNN). To improve the quality of prediction, existing research efforts have focused on either aggregating contextual information or incorporating prior knowledge into the network. Wu et al. [31] proposed SGFN, which introduces a feature-wise attention mechanism in GNN's message passing process to obtain more contextual information between objects and predicates. Zhang et al. [39] proposed SGGpoint, which introduces an EDGE-oriented Graph Convolution Network (GCN) and a twinning attention mechanism for graph-based reasoning. Lv et al. [12] proposed Semantic Graph Transformer (SGFormer), which introduces a Transformer-based framework to preserve global context. KISGP [41] introduced a graph auto-encoder network to embed prototype knowledge from class labels and integrated the learned prior knowledge embedding into 3D SGP models to improve the accuracy of object and predicate classification. KISGP is the first to evaluate 3D SGP models in PredCls and SGCls tasks [33]. Wang et al. [30] proposed a Visual-Linguistic Semantics Assisted Training (VL-SAT) scheme, which builds an oracle multi-modal model with CLIP [17] to alleviate the long-tailed problem and boost performance. However, existing methods lack consideration for the effective graph structure and message passing, classifying all relations equally and flatly. Such methods cannot perform directional message passing and satisfy the fine-grained classification on complex relationships. + +# 2.3 Heterogeneous Graph Learning + +Heterogeneous graph [23] is a flexible graph structure that can encompass different types of nodes and edges. There are several heterogeneous graph learning methods [5, 21, 29, 40, 43], which can encode rich semantic and structural information effectively. Since the scene graph may have multiple types of objects and relations, several works have attempted to treat the scene graph as a heterogeneous graph. SCENE [14] utilized a heterogeneous graph to reason about the dynamic agents and static infrastructure information of traffic scenes. HetSGG [36] was the first to consider the heterogeneity of a scene graph in the + +SGG task. They assigned different types to objects and relations based on the prediction of objects to construct a heterogeneous graph and performed message passing on the graph to capture different contexts of each relation according to its type. However, there is no research considering the heterogeneity of the 3D scene graph in the 3D SGP task. 3D scene graph in point clouds has far more complicated relations involving not only semantic relations but also spatial relations, and geometric comparative relations. It is necessary to treat a 3D scene graph in a heterogeneous way, to reason and infer different types of relations separately. + +# 3 Methods + +# 3.1 Overview + +A 3D scene graph is a graphical description of a given 3D scene. Given the point clouds of 3D scene data $\mathbf{D} \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times 3}$ with $N$ 3D points and $K$ class-agnostic instances masks $\mathcal{M} = \{\mathbf{M}_1, \dots, \mathbf{M}_K\}$ as input, the goal of the 3D scene graph prediction task is to predict the objects $O = \{o_1, \dots, o_K\}$ as graph nodes and relation predicates $R = \{r_{ij}\}$ between object pairs as graph edges. + +In this paper, unlike previous homogeneous graph approaches, we formulate the 3D scene graph as a heterogeneous graph and solve the task as a heterogeneous graph learning problem. We use a directed heterogeneous graph $\mathcal{G} = (\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E},\mathcal{T}_{\mathcal{E}})$ to represent our 3D scene graph, where the nodes $\mathcal{V}$ consist of the objects $O$ , the edges $\mathcal{E}$ consist of the predicates of relations, and the types $\mathcal{T}_{\mathcal{E}}$ consist of types of predicates. + +We propose a novel framework named 3D Heterogeneous Scene Graph Prediction (3D-HetSGP). Our framework consists of two stages. The first stage is heterogeneous graph structure learning, which aims to learn the graph structure by predicting the different types of edges. The second stage is heterogeneous graph reasoning, which aims to learn the scene graph by performing graph message passing effectively on the predicted graph structure. Moreover, we update the graph structure by collecting the final prediction scores of the predicates output from the second stage as new type scores and retrain the framework. The training objective for mapping a 3D scene from point clouds to a scene graph is to maximize the joint probability: + +$$ +P (\mathcal {G}, \mathcal {T} | D) = P (\mathcal {T} | D) P (\mathcal {G} | D, \mathcal {T}), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $P(\mathcal{T}|D)$ represents the prediction of heterogeneous graph structure learning stage, and $P(\mathcal{G}|D,\mathcal{T})$ represents the prediction of heterogeneous graph reasoning stage. The overview of our framework is illustrated in Fig. 2. + +# 3.2 Heterogeneous Graph Structure Learning + +This stage aims to learn a heterogeneous graph structure of the scene graph by predicting the type scores of predicates. According to the definition in 3DSSG + +![](images/1328f1ad4310f6395fb78de8a95028b9fb20b5fe707ec5a40ad6fd4b02e375b8.jpg) +Fig. 2: Our 3D heterogeneous scene graph prediction(3D-HetSGP) framework. It consists of two stage: (a) The HGLS stage: the graph structure is learned by predicting the types of different edges. (b) The HGR stage: message passing among nodes is performed on the learned graph structure. Finally, the prediction scores are fused to generate a 3D scene graph. + +[28], we divide the 26 predicate labels into 3 types of super-categories, as shown in Table 1. The pipeline at this stage is similar to recent works [41] [31]. First, we initialize a fully-connected and homogeneous scene graph with node and edge features extracted from scene point clouds. Then, we employ a graph neural network for message passing on this graph to learn node and edge features. Finally, we classify edge features into three super-category types and one 'none' category (indicating that no relationship exists on the edge). We use the type prediction scores for each edge as its weights to construct a heterogeneous graph. + +3D Scene Graph Initialization We first initialize the scene graph $\mathcal{G} = (\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E})$ as a fully-connected and homogeneous graph structure, which means all nodes are connected to each other in the same way. We filter the 3D scene point clouds using class-agnostic instance masks and obtain the object point sets. Following KISGP [41], we employ the multi-scale PointNet [15] on the object point sets to obtain the object node features $\pmb{f}_n$ . The object-pair (predicate) edge features $\pmb{f}_e$ are initialized based on the features of subjects and objects. + +Message Passing Once the initial node features and edge features are obtained, we employ the graph neural network in KISGP [41] to propagate and aggregate the contextual information of nodes and edges on the initial graph through message passing. For message updating, the gated recurrent units (GRUs) are used to update the hidden state $\pmb{h}_i^{n,l}$ for node $\pmb{v}_i$ and $\pmb{h}_{ij}^{e,l}$ for edge $(\pmb{v}_i,\pmb{v}_j)$ in layer $l$ : + +$$ +\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l + 1} = \operatorname {G R U} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l}, \boldsymbol {m} _ {i} ^ {n, l}\right), \boldsymbol {h} _ {i j} ^ {e, l + 1} = \operatorname {G R U} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i j} ^ {e, l}, \boldsymbol {m} _ {i j} ^ {e, l}\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\pmb{m}_i^{n,l}$ and $\pmb{m}_{ij}^{e,l}$ are the incoming messages from neighbor nodes and edges for updating. The incoming messages $\pmb{m}_i^{n,l}$ of nodes and $\pmb{m}_{ij}^{e,l}$ of edges are: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \boldsymbol {m} _ {i} ^ {n, l} = \operatorname {m e a n} \left(\sum_ {j \in N _ {i *}} \boldsymbol {m} _ {i j} ^ {s, l} + \sum_ {j \in N _ {* i}} \boldsymbol {m} _ {j i} ^ {o, l}\right) \\ = \operatorname {m e a n} \left(\operatorname {L N} \left(\phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l}\right) + \phi_ {e} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i j} ^ {e, l}\right)\right) + \operatorname {L N} \left(\phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l}\right) + \phi_ {e} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {j i} ^ {e, l}\right)\right)\right), \tag {3} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {m} _ {i j} ^ {e, l} = \operatorname {L N} \left(\phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l}\right) + \phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {j} ^ {n, l}\right)\right). \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\phi_{n}$ and $\phi_{e}$ are the non-linear transformations for nodes and edges, LN represents layer normalization, mean() is a mean operation. The graph neural network has $l$ layers for updating node and edge features. + +Type Prediction Head The edge features $\pmb{f}_{e}$ obtained through message passing are then classified into four classes, including three predicate types and the 'none' category. The 4-dimensional prediction scores $\pmb{T}\pmb{S}$ of predicates type are calculated as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {T} \boldsymbol {S} = \operatorname {s o f t m a x} (\operatorname {M L P} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {e}\right)), \tag {5} +$$ + +Each dimension $s_k$ of $TS$ is one type weight of the four categories. We then obtain the final type edges: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {w} _ {t} = \left[ \left(\boldsymbol {s} _ {t}\right) > \alpha \right], t \in [ 1, 4 ]. \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\pmb{w}_1$ is the edge of 'none' class, $\pmb{w}_2, \pmb{w}_3, \pmb{w}_4$ are learned edges of types support, proximity and comparative, respectively. $\alpha$ is a hyper-parameter. We utilize these type edges as learned heterogeneous graph structure in the next stage. + +# 3.3 Heterogeneous Graph Reasoning + +This stage aims to predict a heterogeneous 3D scene graph by reasoning on the learned heterogeneous graph structure. First, we initialize a heterogeneous scene graph with node features and edge features initialized in the first stage and updated based on 3D spatial and geometric properties. Then, we perform heterogeneous graph message passing on our heterogeneous graph, which consists of three subgraphs. The edge features of each subgraph are fed into their corresponding type of classifier to obtain the predicate prediction score for each subgraph. Finally, we concatenate the object and predicate prediction scores of each subgraph as the final prediction result of the heterogeneous 3D scene graph. + +Heterogeneous Graph Initialization In this stage, we initialize the scene graph as a heterogeneous graph structure $\mathcal{G} = (\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E},\mathcal{T}_{\mathcal{E}})$ with type edges, where $\mathcal{T}_{\mathcal{E}}$ denotes the set of predicate types. According to different type edges, we construct three different relation subgraphs separately: Support subgraph, Proximity subgraph, and Comparative subgraph. + +To initialize the heterogeneous scene graph features $\mathcal{V}$ and $\mathcal{E}$ , we take the node and edge features initialized from the first stage as input. Furthermore, to propagate more precise semantic information, we update the edge features of different subgraphs according to their characteristics. The spatial and geometric features are calculated and fused into the features of Proximity and Comparative subgraphs respectively. For spatial features, we calculate the offset, distance and direction between two instances in turn: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} _ {i j} ^ {s p a t} = \operatorname {f c} \left(\operatorname {C o n c a t} \left(\boldsymbol {c} _ {i} - \boldsymbol {c} _ {j}, \| \boldsymbol {c} _ {i} - \boldsymbol {c} _ {j} \| _ {2}, \frac {\boldsymbol {c} _ {i} - \boldsymbol {c} _ {j}}{\| \boldsymbol {c} _ {i} - \boldsymbol {c} _ {j} \| _ {2}}\right)\right), \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\pmb{c}_i$ and $\pmb{c}_j$ are the centroids of 3D bounding boxes for objects $i$ and $j$ , respectively. For geometric features, we calculate the difference of length $l$ , width $w$ , height $h$ and volume $V = lwh$ between two instances: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} _ {i j} ^ {\text {g e o m}} = \operatorname {f c} (\operatorname {C o n c a t} (\log \frac {l _ {i}}{l _ {j}}, \log \frac {w _ {i}}{w _ {j}}, \log \frac {h _ {i}}{h _ {j}}, \log \frac {V _ {i}}{V _ {j}})), \tag {8} +$$ + +Then, the spatial features $\pmb{f}_{ij}^{spat}$ and the geometric features $\pmb{f}_{ij}^{geom}$ are fused to update the initialized edge features $\pmb{e}_{ij}$ of Proximity and Comparative subgraphs. + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} _ {e _ {i j}} ^ {\text {u p d a t e}} = \operatorname {M L P} \left(\operatorname {C o n c a t} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {e _ {i j}}, \operatorname {M L P} \left(\boldsymbol {f} ^ {\text {u p d a t e}}\right)\right)\right). \tag {9} +$$ + +Heterogeneous Graph Message Passing After initializing the heterogeneous scene graph consisting of three subgraphs, we introduce a heterogeneous graph neural network to propagate and aggregate the contextual information according to different relation types on the initialized subgraphs. The network has the same message updating procedure as the first stage. What differs is the incoming messages. We adapt GRU to update the hidden state $\pmb{h}_i^{n,l,t}$ for node $\pmb{v}_i$ and $\pmb{h}_{ij}^{e,l,t}$ for edge $(\pmb{v}_i,\pmb{v}_j)$ in every layer $l$ for each subgraph type $t$ in the same way as Eq. (2). We cascade multiple layers of graph convolutions to aggregate information. To learn effective and clean incoming messages for nodes and edges, we only aggregate information from the same type of edges on each subgraph. + +a) Incoming messages of edge relations. The edge incoming message is generated from nodes of connected neighbors, which are determined by the type edges $\boldsymbol{w}_t$ . For each type of subgraph $t$ , given two node objects $n_i$ and $n_j$ on either side of edge $e_{ij}$ , the edge incoming message $\boldsymbol{m}_{ij}^{e,l,t}$ at $l$ -th layer is computed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {m} _ {i j} ^ {e, l, t} = \mathrm {L N} \left(\boldsymbol {w} _ {t} \phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i} ^ {n, l, t}\right) + \boldsymbol {w} _ {t} \phi_ {n} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {j} ^ {n, l, t}\right)\right), \tag {10} +$$ + +where $\pmb{h}_i^{n,l,t}$ and $\pmb{h}_j^{n,l,t}$ are hidden states of two object features, $\phi_n(\cdot)$ is the nonlinear function for nodes. The type edges $\pmb{w}_t$ determine the propagation path of information. + +b) Incoming message of node objects. After the edge hidden state is updated by GRU, the incoming message of node is aggregated from all the neighboring edges connected to that node based on the type edge $\boldsymbol{w}_t$ . For each + +type subgraph $t$ , given all the neighboring edges $e_{ij}$ connected with node $n_i$ , the incoming message $m_i^{n,l,t}$ for the node at the $(l)$ -th layer is calculated as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {m} _ {i} ^ {n, l, t} = \sum_ {j \in N _ {i *}} \boldsymbol {w} _ {t} \phi_ {e} \left(\boldsymbol {h} _ {i j} ^ {e, l, t}\right). \tag {11} +$$ + +where $N_{i*}$ denotes the neighboring nodes of node $i$ , $\pmb{h}_{ij}^{e,l,t}$ is the hidden state of edge feature, $\phi_e(\cdot)$ is the non-linear function for edges. + +Prediction Head To generate the final prediction 3D scene graph, the final node features $\pmb{f}_n^t$ and edge features $\pmb{f}_e^t$ obtained through heterogeneous message passing are classified into objects and predicates categories by predictors. The network finally outputs three node and edge features, one for each predicate type. The predicate confidence score vectors $\pmb{s}_e^t$ of each type $t$ are computed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {s} _ {e} ^ {t} = \sigma (\operatorname {M L P} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {e} ^ {t}\right)), t \in \{s u p p, p r o x, c o m p \}, \tag {12} +$$ + +$\sigma(\cdot)$ is an activation function, we use sigmoid $(\cdot)$ for type proximity. The final predicate confidence score $s_e$ is computed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {s} _ {e} = \max (\operatorname {C o n c a t} (\boldsymbol {s} ^ {\text {s u p p}}, \boldsymbol {s} ^ {\text {p r o x}}, \boldsymbol {s} ^ {\text {c o m p}})), \tag {13} +$$ + +The object confidence score $s_n$ is computed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {s} _ {n} = \operatorname {s o f t m a x} (\operatorname {M L P} \left(\operatorname {C o n c a t} \left(\boldsymbol {f} _ {n} ^ {\text {s u p p}}, \boldsymbol {f} _ {n} ^ {\text {p r o x}}, \boldsymbol {f} _ {n} ^ {\text {c o m p}}\right)\right)). \tag {14} +$$ + +# 3.4 Heterogeneous Graph Structure Updating + +To improve the accuracy between the predicted graph structure with the actual graph structure, we propose a graph structure updating operation to update the type edges $\mathbf{w}_t$ in Eq. (10) and (11). Specifically, $\mathbf{w}_t$ is updated by summing the predicate confidence scores produced by HGR separately as: $\mathbf{w}_t = \left[\left(\sum_i^{d^t}\mathbf{s}_{ei}^t\right) > \alpha\right], t \in \{\text{supp, prox, comp}\}$ , where $\mathbf{s}_{ei}^t$ is the confidence score of the $i$ -th sub-category, $d^t$ is the number of sub-categories. After updating the type edges $\mathbf{w}_t$ , we retrain the HGR to improve performance. An ablation study is provided in Sec. 4.4. + +# 3.5 Training Objective + +Our scene graph prediction consists of object classification, type classification and predicate classification. Therefore the total loss $\mathcal{L}_{total}$ is formulated as: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \lambda \mathcal {L} _ {\text {o b j}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {t y p e}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p r e d}} \\ = \lambda \mathcal {L} _ {\text {o b j}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {t y p e}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {s u p p}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p r o x}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c o m p}}. \tag {15} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\lambda$ is a weight to balance the loss of objects and predicates. $\mathcal{L}_{supp}$ , $\mathcal{L}_{prox}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{comp}$ are the classification losses for the types support, proximity and comparative respectively. Same as KISGP [41], all these losses are defined as focal loss, except for the proximity type loss. Since the relationships of proximity have multiple classes, we utilize the binary cross-entropy loss for $\mathcal{L}_{prox}$ . + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Experimental Settings + +3DSSG Dataset The 3DSSG dataset [28] is an extension of 3RScan [27], providing annotations for 3D semantic scene graphs within the 3RScan dataset. It includes 1,482 3D reconstructed models of 478 indoor environments. The 1,482 scene graphs have a total of 48k object nodes and 544k edges. For a fair comparison, we split the 1,482 scenes into 3852 sub-scenes for the training set and 548 for the test set in the same way as KISGP [41]. Each scene has 9 object nodes on average. Following RIO27 annotation [2], we utilize 160 object categories and 27 predicate classes, including 'none' relation, in our experiments. + +Metrics and Task Description We evaluate our model in two standard tasks of scene graph prediction [33]. (1) The predicate classification (PredCls) aims to evaluate the performance of predicate prediction between every object pair, given the ground truth labels of objects. (2) The scene graph classification (SGCls) aims to evaluate the overall performance of scene graph prediction, including predictions of both objects and predicates. We use top-k $(\mathbb{R}@\mathbb{k})$ recall, no graph constraint top-k $(\mathtt{ngcR@k})$ recall, and mean recall $(\mathrm{mR@k})$ as the metrics for these two tasks. The top-k $(\mathbb{R}@\mathbb{K})$ recall measures the proportion of correct relationships among the top k highest confidence scores. The ngcR@k allows each edge to have multiple predicates without graph constraint to only one relationship with the highest score. Due to the long-tail distribution in the dataset, we also compute the mean recalls $(\mathrm{mR@k})$ for each predicate. + +Implementation Details We follow the same experiment configuration and procedure as in KISGP [41]. Our model is implemented in PyTorch. We train our model on an NVIDIA GTX TITAN GPU for 40 epochs using the ADAM optimizer. We set the initial learning rate to 0.0001, and the weight decay is set to 0.7 every ten epochs. Following KISGP, we also pretrain the multi-scale PointNet [15] on the 3DSSG dataset and utilize the pretrained PointNets to encode the point cloud into initial object and predicate features for the training of scene graph prediction model. The GNN modules are cascaded for 3 layers in the heterogeneous graph structure learning stage and 5 layers in the heterogeneous graph reasoning stage. For graph structure updating, we collect predicate score results and compute type weights after the first 40 epochs. Subsequently, we replace the type edges in the heterogeneous graph with the updated edges and train it for another 40 epochs. We set $\lambda = 0.1$ , and the focal loss is the same as SGPN [28]. + +# 4.2 Comparison with Related Methods + +Since our model is developed based on KISGP [41], we evaluate our model in PredCls/SGCls tasks against both KISGP and several reference methods, including Co-Occurrence [41], KERN [1], Schemata [20], SGPN [28].

+ +Quantitative Results Tables 2, 3 report the quantitative results for the PredCls and SGCls tasks. Compared to the baseline model KISGP [41], our method achieves a significant performance improvement. For example, in the PredCls task on ngcR@K, our model improves around $7\%$ , $10\%$ and $6\%$ at ngcR@20, ngcR@50 and ngcR@100 than KISGP, respectively. This suggests that leveraging a heterogeneous graph can enhance the classification of multiple relationships. Moreover, in the SGCls task, we achieve around $1.7\%$ improvement over KISGP at ngcR@50, indicating that reasoning within a heterogeneous graph is capable of enhancing the message passing among nodes and edges in an entire scene graph. As shown in the mean recall part of the table, our model outperforms KISGP by $1.3\%$ and $6.2\%$ at mR@50 in SGCls and PredCls tasks, respectively. This demonstrates that our model alleviates the long-tail distribution issue without fusing prior knowledge into the models. + +Table 4: Comparison results of no graph constraint Recall@20/50/100 for Support, Proximity, Comparative types. + +

+ +Moreover, Table 4 shows the comparison results of our 3DHetSGP with KISGP [41] on per predicate type: support, proximity, and comparative, and their mean values. To evaluate the predicates including multi-relationship predicates, we report the results in the ngcR@k for the PredCls task. Compared to KISGP, our 3DHetSGP achieves significant improvements on the proximity and comparative types of predicates. Specifically, we obtain $9.96\%$ , $17.22\%$ , and $12.37\%$ improvements for the proximity type on R@20, R@50, and R@100, respectively, although our 3DHetSGP drops slightly on the support type (which is already predicted quite accurately). The mean results across all types show that our method increases the overall performance by a significant margin. Therefore, it is effective to treat the 3D scene graph as a heterogeneous graph and predict predicates separately according to their belonging types. + +Qualitative Results Figure 3 shows a predicted scene graph on 3DSSG [28]. In the top 20 predicted relationships, our predictions match all the ground truth relationships, especially for the multi-relationship scenarios. For the prediction of relation pair chair-chair, we capture not only the type proximity predicates 'right/left', 'close by', but also the type comparative predicate 'same as', which are not predicted by KISGP. These results demonstrate that the heterogeneous graph structure is indeed more suitable for learning of multiple relationships. + +![](images/486fdc5467199aba4f4ecfb4e59735c2a460e72182e8664fa88efa760a707b91.jpg) +Fig.3: Qualitative results between ours and KISGP [41] on no graph constraint Recall@20 for the PredCls task.

We sort all predicate classes in descending order based on their occurrence frequency and then separate them into three groups (i.e., head, body, tail) according to frequency. We report the R@k and mR@k metrics for each group in Table 5. Compared to KISGP, although we drop $0 - 1.5\%$ on head classes, we obtain $10.82\%$ on mR@20 for body and $8.23\%$ on mR@50 for tail classes. + +Table 5: Comparison results of Recall@20/50 and mean Recall@20/50 for the head, body, tail predicate classes in 3DSSG [28]. + +

+ +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we proposed a novel framework termed 3D-Heterogeneous Scene Graph Prediction (3D-HetSGP) to learn the complex 3D scene graph in a heterogeneous manner. Our framework first learns the edge weights of different types to construct a heterogeneous graph, and then performs heterogeneous message passing on the graph to avoid semantic confusion and bias accumulation. Extensive experimentation on the 3DSSG dataset demonstrates that our method achieves comparable or superior performance to KISGP. In the future, we plan to investigate the heterogeneity and hierarchy of 3D objects to minimize the gap between machine and human brain comprehension of the real world as much as possible. + +# Acknowledgement. + +This work was partially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. U20A20185, 62372491), the Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation (2022B1515020103, 2023B1515120087), the Shenzhen Science and Technology Program (No. RCYX20200714114641140). + +# References + +1.

In this paper, we propose a 3D Heterogeneous Scene Graph Prediction (3D-HetSGP) framework, which performs graph reasoning on the 3D scene graph in a heterogeneous fashion. Specifically, our method consists of two stages: a heterogeneous graph structure learning (H GSL) stage and a heterogeneous graph reasoning (HGR) stage. In the H GSL stage, we learn the graph structure by predicting the types of different directed edges. In the HGR stage, message passing among nodes is performed on the learned graph structure for scene graph prediction.

As for one-stage image-based SGG models, recent works [8, 22] were proposed to jointly optimize the object detection and relation prediction in an end-to-end network.

Following KISGP, we also pretrain the multi-scale PointNet [15] on the 3DSSG dataset and utilize the pretrained PointNets to encode the point cloud into initial object and predicate features for the training of scene graph prediction model. The GNN modules are cascaded for 3 layers in the heterogeneous graph structure learning stage and 5 layers in the heterogeneous graph reasoning stage. For graph structure updating, we collect predicate score results and compute type weights after the first 40 epochs. Subsequently, we replace the type edges in the heterogeneous graph with the updated edges and train it for another 40 epochs.

Diffusion models have become a mainstream approach for high-resolution image synthesis.

Concurrently, We pinpoint the extended generation times to self-attention redundancy in U-Net's top blocks. To address these issues, we propose a tuning-free higher-resolution framework named HiDiffusion. Specifically, HiDiffusion contains Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net) that dynamically adjusts the feature map size to resolve object duplication and engages Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) that utilizes optimized window attention to reduce computations. we can integrate HiDiffusion into various pretrained diffusion models to scale image generation resolutions even to $4096\\times 4096$ at $1.5 - 6\\times$ the inference speed of previous methods.

RAU-Net involves Resolution-Aware Downsampler (RAD) and Resolution-Aware Upsampler (RAU) to align the feature map size with the deep block of U-Net. In contrast to ScaleCrafter [11], which attributes object duplication to the limited receptive field of convolutions and requires determining the parameters of each convolution in U-Net, we discover feature duplication and propose a more concise solution RAU-Net that modifies the parameters of only two convolutions. Therefore, RAU-Net can be more readily integrated into various diffusion models. The slight modifications can also better preserve the capabilities of the pretrained model, and consequently retain more fine-grained image details.

ToMeSD [2], SnapFusion [20] and DeepCache [26] speeded up an off-the-shelf diffusion model without training by exploiting natural redundancy in diffusion models. However, they all somewhat compromise image quality. In this paper, through the analysis of the locality of global self-attention in the top blocks, we develop a simple yet effective method MSW-MSA that significantly accelerates the generation of higher-resolution images without the need for fine-tuning and does not compromise image quality. Compared to previous local attention implementations [9, 22], MSW-MSA leverages locality observation, allowing it to better adapt to diffusion models and achieve a superior trade-off between speed and quality.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 388, + 787, + 599 + ], + "page_idx": 3 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "3 Method", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 623, + 330, + 638 + ], + "page_idx": 3 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "3.1 Preliminaries", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 654, + 372, + 669 + ], + "page_idx": 3 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "U-Net architecture.

We surprisingly find that the self-attention mechanism in the top blocks demonstrates a pronounced locality.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 719, + 787, + 839 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "8", + "bbox": [ + 217, + 114, + 228, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "Shen Zhang et al.", + "bbox": [ + 271, + 114, + 392, + 128 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Certain heads are observed to attend to approximately half of the image, while others focus on even more confined regions close to the query location.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 146, + 782, + 176 + ], + "page_idx": 8 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "According to this observation, it is suggested to propose local self-attention for efficient computation. We delve into how to design local attention to ensure acceleration while maintaining image quality. Based on window attention [22], we propose Modified Shifted Window Attention (MSW-MSA), a simple yet effective approach for lossless acceleration to replace the original global attention. Specifically, MSW-MSA has two modifications: (i) Large window attention. Fig. 5b indicates that the mean attention distance of the top blocks is local but not very small. This suggests that the small window attention utilized in vision field [22] may not be suitable for the diffusion model. To achieve a balance between acceleration and image quality, we opt for a larger window attention. The experimentally validated window size is $(H / 2, W / 2)$ , where $H$ and $W$ respectively represent the height and width of the input feature (please refer to the appendix for the results from small to large window sizes). (ii) Shift window operation across timestep. Window shift operation is needed to introduce cross-window connections. However, Stable Diffusion transformer block has only one self-attention module that is unable to process window attention and shift window attention successively. To apply shift window operation, we propose to shift different strides based on the timesteps. Specifically, we adopt a random selection strategy, where at each timestamp, we randomly select a stride parameter from a fixed set of shift strides.

Diffusion models have become a mainstream approach for high-resolution image synthesis. However, directly generating higher-resolution images from pretrained diffusion models will encounter unreasonable object duplication and exponentially increase the generation time. In this paper, we discover that object duplication arises from feature duplication in the deep blocks of the U-Net. Concurrently, We pinpoint the extended generation times to self-attention redundancy in U-Net's top blocks. To address these issues, we propose a tuning-free higher-resolution framework named HiDiffusion. Specifically, HiDiffusion contains Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net) that dynamically adjusts the feature map size to resolve object duplication and engages Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) that utilizes optimized window attention to reduce computations. we can integrate HiDiffusion into various pretrained diffusion models to scale image generation resolutions even to \\(4096\\times 4096\\) at \\(1.5 - 6\\times\\) the inference speed of previous methods.

Our observation reveals that the generated image is highly correlated with the feature map of deep blocks in structures and feature duplication happens in the deep blocks. The highly duplicated features guide the synthesis direction, resulting in object duplication. We propose a simple yet effective method called Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net). RAU-Net involves Resolution-Aware Downsampler (RAD) and Resolution-Aware Upsampler (RAU) to align the feature map size with the deep block of U-Net. In contrast to ScaleCrafter [11], which attributes object duplication to the limited receptive field of convolutions and requires determining the parameters of each convolution in U-Net, we discover feature duplication and propose a more concise solution RAU-Net that modifies the parameters of only two convolutions. Therefore, RAU-Net can be more readily integrated into various diffusion models. The slight modifications can also better preserve the capabilities of the pretrained model, and consequently retain more fine-grained image details. To further improve the higher-resolution image quality, we propose a Switching Threshold to boost the fine details of generated higher-resolution images.

In this paper, we unearth that the dominant time-consuming global self-attention in the top blocks exhibits surprising locality.

[16] propose an attention scaling factor for variable-sized image synthesis. MultiDiffusion [1] and SyncDiffusion [17] manipulated the generation process by binding together multiple diffusion generation processes. Despite their advancements, these approaches still exhibit object duplication. Recently, ScaleCrafter [11] mitigates object duplication through redilation that can dynamically adjust the convolutional receptive field during inference. ScaleCrafter can effectively address object duplication but somewhat degrades the image quality. DemoFusion [8] proposed a novel progressive generation schedule with skip residual and dilated sampling. It can generate high-quality high-resolution images, but the long generation time limits its practicality.

Driven by previous local self-attention works in vision [22, 28], we visualize the mean attention distance for each head across different timesteps of Block 1 (top block) and Mid Block (deep block), as shown in Fig. 5b.

We delve into how to design local attention to ensure acceleration while maintaining image quality. Based on window attention [22], we propose Modified Shifted Window Attention (MSW-MSA), a simple yet effective approach for lossless acceleration to replace the original global attention. Specifically, MSW-MSA has two modifications: (i) Large window attention. Fig. 5b indicates that the mean attention distance of the top blocks is local but not very small. This suggests that the small window attention utilized in vision field [22] may not be suitable for the diffusion model. To achieve a balance between acceleration and image quality, we opt for a larger window attention. The experimentally validated window size is \\((H / 2, W / 2)\\), where \\(H\\) and \\(W\\) respectively represent the height and width of the input feature (please refer to the appendix for the results from small to large window sizes). (ii) Shift window operation across timestep. Window shift operation is needed to introduce cross-window connections. However, Stable Diffusion transformer block has only one self-attention module that is unable to process window attention and shift window attention successively. To apply shift window operation, we propose to shift different strides based on the timesteps. Specifically, we adopt a random selection strategy, where at each timestamp, we randomly select a stride parameter from a fixed set of shift strides. This approach enables the integration of information from diverse windows.

Diffusion models have become a mainstream approach for high-resolution image synthesis. However, directly generating higher-resolution images from pretrained diffusion models will encounter unreasonable object duplication and exponentially increase the generation time. In this paper, we discover that object duplication arises from feature duplication in the deep blocks of the U-Net. Concurrently, We pinpoint the extended generation times to self-attention redundancy in U-Net's top blocks. To address these issues, we propose a tuning-free higher-resolution framework named HiDiffusion. Specifically, HiDiffusion contains Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net) that dynamically adjusts the feature map size to resolve object duplication and engages Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) that utilizes optimized window attention to reduce computations. we can integrate HiDiffusion into various pretrained diffusion models to scale image generation resolutions even to $4096\times 4096$ at $1.5 - 6\times$ the inference speed of previous methods. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach can address object duplication and heavy computation issues, achieving state-of-the-art performance on higher-resolution image synthesis tasks. + +Keywords: Higher-Resolution Image Synthesis $\cdot$ High-Efficiency Diffusion + +# 1 Introduction + +Generative model has witnessed an explosion of diffusion models of growing capability and applications [13, 32, 38-40]. Being trained on a large volume of images (Laion 5B [37]), Stable Diffusion (SD) [30, 32] can generate fixed-size (e.g. $512 \times 512$ for SD 1.5 [32]) high-quality images given text or other kinds of prompts. However, it is limited to synthesizing images with higher resolutions (e.g. $2048 \times 2048$ ). The limitation has two perspectives: (i) Feasibility. + +![](images/31d249064a55f118fb2b0a0f52462b3462ec7c4a2ffb43f76987582c3cb866dc.jpg) +Fig. 1: $2048 \times 2048$ resolution images based on SDXL [30]. The first line of the text indicates the generation methods, while the second line indicates the cost time and inference speed relative to direct inference. Our Hidiffusion can generate reasonable and realistic high-resolution images with high efficiency. Compared to previous methods, ours exhibits richer fine-grained details and is $1.58 \times$ faster than Scalerafter [11], $4.18 \times$ faster than DemoFusion [8]. Best viewed when zoomed in. + +Diffusion models lack scalability in higher-resolution image generation. As illustrated in the Direct Inference column of Fig. 1, when directly inferencing to generate $2048 \times 2048$ resolution images for SDXL [30] that being trained on $1024 \times 1024$ resolution, the generated images exhibit unreasonable object duplication and inexplicable object overlaps. (ii) Efficiency. As resolution increases, the time cost becomes more and more unacceptable. For example, SD 1.5 can generate a $512 \times 512$ resolution image in only 3s, whereas it takes 165s to generate a $2048 \times 2048$ image on an NVIDIA V100 with 50 DDIM steps. The low efficiency of diffusion models in higher-resolution synthesis makes it impractical for real-world applications. We ask: Can Stable Diffusion efficiently synthesize images with resolution beyond the training image sizes? + +Existing methods answer feasibility question from three perspectives: (i) Collecting enough higher-resolution images to retrain a diffusion model for higher-resolution synthesis [30]. (ii) Leveraging additional super-resolution models [32, 44] to upscale low-resolution images. (iii) Modifying the operation [16] or architecture [11] of U-Net, or creating a new synthesis schedule [8] for higher-resolution synthesis in a tuning-free way. While those perspectives can mitigate object duplication, the first two require large-scale high-resolution datasets and the training process is costly. The tuning-free methods can leverage the power of the pretrained diffusion model, but they suffer from insufficient image details or low inference efficiency, as shown in Fig. 1. + +In this paper, we aim to resolve object duplication and generate higher-resolution images with fine details in a tuning-free way. Different from previous + +methods, we explore a new perspective by investigating the feature map in the U-Net. Our observation reveals that the generated image is highly correlated with the feature map of deep blocks in structures and feature duplication happens in the deep blocks. The highly duplicated features guide the synthesis direction, resulting in object duplication. We propose a simple yet effective method called Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net). RAU-Net involves Resolution-Aware Downsampler (RAD) and Resolution-Aware Upsampler (RAU) to align the feature map size with the deep block of U-Net. In contrast to ScaleCrafter [11], which attributes object duplication to the limited receptive field of convolutions and requires determining the parameters of each convolution in U-Net, we discover feature duplication and propose a more concise solution RAU-Net that modifies the parameters of only two convolutions. Therefore, RAU-Net can be more readily integrated into various diffusion models. The slight modifications can also better preserve the capabilities of the pretrained model, and consequently retain more fine-grained image details. To further improve the higher-resolution image quality, we propose a Switching Threshold to boost the fine details of generated higher-resolution images. Our proposed approach requires no further fine-tuning and can be seamlessly integrated into diffusion models. + +Besides higher-resolution feasibility, efficiency is another important concern. Numerous works focus on reducing the sampling step [20,23,24,27,35,38] and the acceleration of diffusion U-Net [2,20,26]. These acceleration methods enhance the inference efficiency but also compromise the generated image quality. In this paper, we unearth that the dominant time-consuming global self-attention in the top blocks exhibits surprising locality. Inspired by this observation, we propose Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) and replace the global self-attention with it in higher-resolution synthesis. This substitution needs no further fine-tuning. Compared to the previous local attention method [22], our method uses large window attention and shifts windows across timestep to accommodate diffusion models. Empirically, MSW-MSA achieves significant acceleration without compromising image quality. + +We combine RAU-Net and MSW-MSA into a unified tuning-free framework for higher-resolution image generation, dubbed HiDiffusion. We conduct qualitative and quantitative experiments to validate the effectiveness of our method. Specifically, HiDiffusion can scale the resolution of SD 1.5 [32] and SD 2.1 [32] from $512 \times 512$ to $2048 \times 2048$ , scale SDXL Turbo [36] from $512 \times 512$ to $1024 \times 1024$ , and scale SDXL [30] from $1024 \times 1024$ to $4096 \times 4096$ . Moreover, HiDiffusion is $1.5 - 2.7 \times$ faster than vanilla SD and is $1.5 - 6 \times$ faster than previous methods in higher-resolution image generation. We hope this work can provide valuable guidance for future research on the scalability of diffusion models. + +# 2 Related Work + +High-Resolution Image Synthesis. The application of diffusion models in high-resolution image generation poses a significant challenge. Existing methods have primarily concentrated on diffusion in lower-dimensional spaces (la + +tent diffusion) [32], or divided the generative process into multiple sub-problems [14, 15, 41, 42]. Nevertheless, these solutions render the framework is highly intricate. Recently, there has been a growing interest in exploring tuning-free approaches for variable-sized adaptation. [16] propose an attention scaling factor for variable-sized image synthesis. MultiDiffusion [1] and SyncDiffusion [17] manipulated the generation process by binding together multiple diffusion generation processes. Despite their advancements, these approaches still exhibit object duplication. Recently, ScaleCrafter [11] mitigates object duplication through redilation that can dynamically adjust the convolutional receptive field during inference. ScaleCrafter can effectively address object duplication but somewhat degrades the image quality. DemoFusion [8] proposed a novel progressive generation schedule with skip residual and dilated sampling. It can generate high-quality high-resolution images, but the long generation time limits its practicality. Different from the previous method, we turn our attention to investigating the properties of the feature map of U-Net. We discover that feature duplication leads to object duplication and propose RAU-Net to effectively resolve it. + +Diffusion Model Acceleration. As diffusion model training and inference is time-consuming, particularly in the context of high-resolution images, various methods [4, 19, 29] have been extensively investigated to accelerate the training and inference of diffusion models. Unlike fast sampling approaches [23, 35, 38, 40] that improve sampling schemes to reduce the sampling step. ToMeSD [2], SnapFusion [20] and DeepCache [26] speeded up an off-the-shelf diffusion model without training by exploiting natural redundancy in diffusion models. However, they all somewhat compromise image quality. In this paper, through the analysis of the locality of global self-attention in the top blocks, we develop a simple yet effective method MSW-MSA that significantly accelerates the generation of higher-resolution images without the need for fine-tuning and does not compromise image quality. Compared to previous local attention implementations [9, 22], MSW-MSA leverages locality observation, allowing it to better adapt to diffusion models and achieve a superior trade-off between speed and quality. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +U-Net architecture.

They generate the low-frequency component in the early denoising stage and the high-frequency component in the late denoising stage. + +![](images/970492614cd9378dfec5ce0ffd2b8af12de243821c52c49eb5cdab7dfa1b4510.jpg) + +![](images/be104a630f2228391752f1eb84a1cbffd099c61ee0b6b104ca6fa43b66c715e7.jpg) + +![](images/1fd70d1394a87c6c7534f828b88093ca30ca5bd0eee544ba4354281ccbe0200f.jpg) +Direct Inference + +![](images/773e11780c0ceca3707a0c7561551f04e567181cc63b7b6e84cfa366997e617e.jpg) + +![](images/4c27692cb9fa290974d93778d95284bb9bf795c1e5af4c5a2aac02ef4dfd88b5.jpg) + +![](images/088eb7a317e97e82cfe4ab51cf45cb5ba1033a313f6a5ac8b4df32d654f68ec0.jpg) + +![](images/965a2b941265b0350bbaf321c8fbab5e442d6048ca3c22235ab2f3bcee0b6ef7.jpg) + +![](images/b6ba925cfc0c8e7bde8bbdebdac5be2e4d18d94b2fb59cf663a34e28bddccd27.jpg) + +![](images/9b87d95ddf43630132c3566623ddb36355c19b21786785f7a1873f08fb8f5c90.jpg) + +![](images/441342efd84ee58e2ef344051a782e81514e46d9d3521ef6ca500a1fc4399fb9.jpg) + +![](images/5cc15e81e74e6f04f30a424d1b9738f4b026e6b1dd77ffcc54b5cac81925cf10.jpg) + +![](images/4e7e6239972f5123fe90b7c6a639730c9937e8e792aed6baff44c6b418e5701b.jpg) + +![](images/ceaf9f8723d27a56f2e1c4bf961c079758374d1d92291f396487c0abb17a24d6.jpg) + +![](images/163faf675d23de5877d61c853515842e8882afc192a99978178d2d57f0a00a79.jpg) +UB 4 output +UB3output +Fig. 4: $1024 \times 1024$ resolution images based on SD 1.5 [32].

The RAU-Net is designed to overcome object duplication when scaling to higher resolution. MSW-MSA is introduced to improve the inference efficiency of diffusion for higher-resolution image synthesis. The overall framework of HiDiffusion is present in Fig. 3. For each method, we initially present the motivation experiments and then introduce our methods. This section is based on the $1024 \times 1024$ resolution image generation with SD 1.5 [32]. For other models and extreme resolution, please refer to the appendix for details. + +Resolution-Aware U-Net. In this work, we investigate the feature map in the U-Net, aiming to uncover the cause of object duplication and resolve it. + +Observation. The generated image is highly correlated with the feature map of deep blocks in structures and feature duplication happens in the deep blocks. + +We provide empirical evidence to demonstrate this observation in Fig. 4. We discover that the structure of the generated image follows the structural information of the feature maps of the deep blocks. The top block of the U-Net only maps the feature map of deep blocks to noise estimation. We also discover that feature duplication happens in the deep blocks of the U-Net, meaning that the features contain repeated structural information. The highly duplicated features guide the generation direction, resulting in object duplication in the image. + +Based on the observation, we aim to reduce the feature duplication in the deep blocks to generate higher-resolution images. As the higher-resolution feature size of deep blocks is larger than the corresponding size in training, these blocks may fail to incorporate feature information globally to generate a reasonable structure. We contend that if the size of the higher-resolution features of deep blocks is reduced to the corresponding size in training, these blocks can generate reasonable structural information and alleviate feature duplication. + +Inspired by this motivation, we propose Resolution-aware U-Net (RAU-Net), a simple yet effective method to dynamically resize the features to match the deep blocks. An illustrative comparison of the vanilla SD 1.5 U-Net and RAU-Net in generating $1024 \times 1024$ resolution images is presented in Fig. 2. We incorporate our Resolution-Aware Downsampler (RAD) in Down Block 1 as a substitute for the original downsampler, and likewise, we replace the original upsampler with the Resolution-Aware Upsampler (RAU) in Up Block 1. RAD downsamples the feature map to guarantee the dimensions of the resulting feature map align with those of the corresponding training images, thereby matching with the deep blocks. On the other hand, RAU simply upsamples the feature size to the desired resolution. Specifically, the RAD and RAU can be written as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {R} \mathcal {A D} (x, \alpha) = \mathcal {R} \left(\mathcal {C} _ {3, 1, 2, 1} (x), \alpha\right), \tag {5} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {R A U} (x, \beta) = \mathcal {C} _ {3, 1, 1, 1} (\operatorname {i n t e r p} (x, \beta)), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\alpha$ is the downsampling factor, $\beta$ is the upsampling factor. $\mathcal{R}(*)$ can be achieved by adjusting the conventional downsampler parameters: + +$$ +\mathcal {R} \left(\mathcal {C} _ {3, 1, 2, 1} (x), \alpha\right) = \mathcal {C} _ {3, p, \alpha , d} (x), \tag {7} +$$ + +or achieved by using adaptive pooling: + +$$ +\mathcal {R} \left(\mathcal {C} _ {3, 1, 2, 1} (x), \alpha\right) = a d a \_ p o o l \left(\mathcal {C} _ {3, 1, 2, 1} (x), \frac {\alpha}{2}\right). \tag {8} +$$ + +We mainly choose the first variant in this paper. We conduct ablations about RAD in the appendix. RAU can be simply achieved with an upscale interpolation such as bilinear interpolation. For $1024 \times 1024$ image generation, we need to downsample the feature map by a factor of 4 to match the deep blocks, i.e., $\alpha = 4$ . This downsampling factor is twice the downsampling factor of the conventional down sampler. We set $d = 2$ , $p = 2$ . For RAU, we only need to adjust the interpolation factor to 4. Compared to the original samplers, both RAD and RAU do not introduce additional trainable parameters. Therefore, RAD and RAU can be integrated into vanilla U-Net without further fine-tuning. + +![](images/708a76c92d5d6cf0886528d9a72cf79214302b1b9c4bf2ffc77c2b3758e443a4.jpg) +(a) Operation consumption. + +![](images/e968f4dd2aab90287ec9a1f87d04b2de6c798728ca3a94a7870178185db86bb5.jpg) +(b) Mean attention distance. +Fig. 5: Analysis of the time consumption and mean attention distance. (a) The self-attention operation of Block 1 significantly dominates the time consumption. (b) A pronounced locality is evident in the self-attention mechanism of the top blocks. + +Upon incorporating RAU-Net into SD 1.5 [32], we address the object duplication problem. But we also bring blurry images with bad details (please refer to the appendix). As mentioned in 3.1, diffusion models denoise from structures to details. Our RAU-Net introduces additional downsampling and upsampling operations, leading to a certain degree of information loss. In the early stages of denoising, RAU-Net can generate reasonable structures with minimal impact from information loss. However, in the later stages of denoising when generating fine details, the information loss in RAU-Net results in the loss of image details and a degradation in quality. Consequently, we establish a Switching Threshold $T_{1}$ , such that when the denoising steps $t < T_{1}$ , RAU-Net is employed, conversely, when the denoising steps $t \geq T_{1}$ , vanilla U-Net is utilized. This simple adjustment can effectively counteract the information loss brought about by RAU-Net, significantly improving the image quality. Moreover, we observed that the parameter $T_{1}$ is not sensitive, with settings between 10 and 40 for $1024 \times 1024$ generation yielding notably superior performance with 50 DDIM steps. Please refer to the appendix for details. + +Modified Shifted Window Attention Stable Diffusion combined with RAU-Net is capable of generating higher-resolution images with high quality. However, it still faces an efficiency challenge: unaffordable slow speed in generating higher-resolution images. In this section, we revisit the consumption and properties of operations in U-Net, trying to accelerate the diffusion model. + +Observation. The self-attention of the top blocks takes the dominant consumption. However, it demonstrates locality. + +Given a latent feature map with $128 \times 128$ (corresponding to $1024 \times 1024$ resolution in pixel space), Fig. 5a shows the time consumption of each operation in SD 1.5. It can be observed that self-attention, especially in Block 1 (i.e. Down Block 1 and Up Block 1), takes the dominant consumption. Driven by previous local self-attention works in vision [22, 28], we visualize the mean attention distance for each head across different timesteps of Block 1 (top block) and Mid Block (deep block), as shown in Fig. 5b. We surprisingly find that the self-attention mechanism in the top blocks demonstrates a pronounced locality. + +Certain heads are observed to attend to approximately half of the image, while others focus on even more confined regions close to the query location. + +According to this observation, it is suggested to propose local self-attention for efficient computation. We delve into how to design local attention to ensure acceleration while maintaining image quality. Based on window attention [22], we propose Modified Shifted Window Attention (MSW-MSA), a simple yet effective approach for lossless acceleration to replace the original global attention. Specifically, MSW-MSA has two modifications: (i) Large window attention. Fig. 5b indicates that the mean attention distance of the top blocks is local but not very small. This suggests that the small window attention utilized in vision field [22] may not be suitable for the diffusion model. To achieve a balance between acceleration and image quality, we opt for a larger window attention. The experimentally validated window size is $(H / 2, W / 2)$ , where $H$ and $W$ respectively represent the height and width of the input feature (please refer to the appendix for the results from small to large window sizes). (ii) Shift window operation across timestep. Window shift operation is needed to introduce cross-window connections. However, Stable Diffusion transformer block has only one self-attention module that is unable to process window attention and shift window attention successively. To apply shift window operation, we propose to shift different strides based on the timesteps. Specifically, we adopt a random selection strategy, where at each timestamp, we randomly select a stride parameter from a fixed set of shift strides. This approach enables the integration of information from diverse windows. Our MSW-MSA can be written as: + +$$ +y = \operatorname {M S W} - \operatorname {M S A} (x, w, s (t)) + x, \tag {9} +$$ + +where $w$ is the window size, $s(t)$ is the shifted stride function dependant on the timestep $t$ . + +We substitute the global self-attention in Block 1 with MSW-MSA. It is worth noting that while other blocks can integrate MSW-MSA, the resulting efficiency gains are not substantial. Experiments demonstrate that our MSW-MSA approach can significantly reduce time consumption without compromising image quality in higher-resolution image synthesis. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Experiment Settings + +In this work, we evaluate the performance of our HiDiffusion on SD 1.5 [32], SD 2.1 [32], SDXL Turbo [36] and SDXL [30].

For quantitative evaluation, we use Frechet Inception Distance (FID) [12] to measure the realism of the output distribution. FID downsamples all images to a common size of 299, which ignores high-resolution details. We further use patches FID (pFID) [3] to evaluate image details.

For $1024 \times 1024$ generation, we incorporate RAD and RAU in Block 1 and set $\alpha = \beta = 4$ . We set the window size as (64, 64). The predefined set of shift strides is $\{(0,0), (16,16), (32,32), (48,48)\}$ . All experiments are conducted with 50 DDIM steps. The classifier-free guidance scale is 7.5. The switching threshold $T_{1}$ is set as 20. When extended to $2048 \times 2048$ , we can simply set $\alpha = 8$ . However, a sharp change in resolution caused by interpolation may bring blurriness, hence we adopt a progressive approach by incorporating RAU and RAD with $\alpha = \beta = 4$ into Block 1 and Block 2, respectively. This allows the feature map to gradually match the deep blocks.

In Fig. 6, we show qualitative comparison between the vanilla SD (direct inference) and our method.

The quantitative results are shown in Tab. 1. Our approach outperforms vanilla SD in both quality and image-text alignment. We achieve much better metric scores across all experiment settings, especially for the images with much higher resolution (a significant FID improvement from 78.53 to 28.93 for SD 1.5 on COCO dataset with $2048 \times 2048$ resolution). Furthermore, HiDiffusion significantly accelerates diffusion inference. For instance, when incorporating HiDiffusion, SDXL is $2.68 \times$ faster than the vanilla model when generating images with $4096 \times 4096$ resolution. + +Comparison with higher-resolution synthesis methods. We present a qualitative comparison between ScaleCrafter [11], DemoFusion [8] and our method in Fig. 6. We observe that all three methods can generate reasonable structures. But our method can generate much richer details than ScaleCrafter and DemoFusion. Tab. 2 shows quantitative results. We generate 1K images for both ImageNet and COCO evaluations due to the heavy computational burden. Our method outperforms ScaleCrafter across almost all models and achieves comparable or better performance than DemoFusion. It is worth noting that we significantly surpass ScaleCrafter and DemoFusion in efficiency: HiDiifusion is $1.5 - 5 \times$ faster than ScaleCrafter and is $4 - 6 \times$ faster than DemoFusion. + +Comparison with diffusion super-resolution models. Instead of directly generating higher-resolution images using a single diffusion model, a more commonly used approach in the community is to generate images with original resolution using Stable Diffusion and scale them to higher resolution using an extra super-resolution model. Although this approach requires additional high-resolution training datasets and extensive training efforts to train a large super-resolution model, we compare it for a thorough comparison, despite the inherent unfairness to our one-stage and training-free method.

On SDXL, our speed is roughly on par with that of LDM-SR. Both LDM-SR and our method are capable of generating plausible structures. However, our method exhibits lower pFID. This indicates that the images generated by our method are more detailed. We visualize the synthesized samples in Fig. 6. Compared with LDM-SR, a distinction can be observed in terms of visual image detail quality. Our method directly generates content on a $2048 \times 2048$ or $4096 \times 4096$ canvas, resulting in higher richness, sharper characteristics, and fine-grained details. + +Comparison with diffusion acceleration method.

Tab. 4 shows the quantitative results on ImageNet [34]. Our proposed MSW-MSA outperforms ToMeSD and DeepCache across almost all metrics.

RAU-Net uses RAD to adjust the feature size to the training dimensions, resulting in speed benefits.

When both are used simultaneously, the optimal result can be achieved. We provide visual samples in the appendix. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose a tuning-free framework named HiDiffusion for higher-resolution image generation. HiDiffusion includes Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net) that makes higher-resolution generation possible and Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) that makes higher-resolution generation efficient. Empirically, HiDiffusion can be incorporated into SD 1.5 [32], 2.1 [32], XL [30], and XL Turbo [36], and scale them to generate $1024 \times 1024$ , $2048 \times 2048$ , or even $4096 \times 4096$ resolution images, while significantly reducing inference time. Compared to previous higher-resolution generation methods, we can generate images with richer details in less inference time. We hope our work can bring insight to future works about the scalability of diffusion models. + +Limitations and future work: Our approach involves directly harnessing the intrinsic potential of Stable Diffusion without any additional training or finetuning, hence some inherent issues posed by Stable Diffusion persist, such as the requirement for prompt engineering to obtain more promising images. Furthermore, we can explore better ways to integrate with super-resolution models to achieve more amazing generation outcomes. + +# References + +1.

Diffusion models have become a mainstream approach for high-resolution image synthesis. However, directly generating higher-resolution images from pretrained diffusion models will encounter unreasonable object duplication and exponentially increase the generation time. In this paper, we discover that object duplication arises from feature duplication in the deep blocks of the U-Net. Concurrently, We pinpoint the extended generation times to self-attention redundancy in U-Net's top blocks. To address these issues, we propose a tuning-free higher-resolution framework named HiDiffusion. Specifically, HiDiffusion contains Resolution-Aware U-Net (RAU-Net) that dynamically adjusts the feature map size to resolve object duplication and engages Modified Shifted Window Multi-head Self-Attention (MSW-MSA) that utilizes optimized window attention to reduce computations. we can integrate HiDiffusion into various pretrained diffusion models to scale image generation resolutions even to " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 299, + 455, + 497 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "4096\\times 4096" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 299, + 455, + 497 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " at " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 299, + 455, + 497 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "1.5 - 6\\times" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 299, + 455, + 497 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " the inference speed of previous methods.

RAU-Net involves Resolution-Aware Downsampler (RAD) and Resolution-Aware Upsampler (RAU) to align the feature map size with the deep block of U-Net. In contrast to ScaleCrafter [11], which attributes object duplication to the limited receptive field of convolutions and requires determining the parameters of each convolution in U-Net, we discover feature duplication and propose a more concise solution RAU-Net that modifies the parameters of only two convolutions. Therefore, RAU-Net can be more readily integrated into various diffusion models. The slight modifications can also better preserve the capabilities of the pretrained model, and consequently retain more fine-grained image details. To further improve the higher-resolution image quality, we propose a Switching Threshold to boost the fine details of generated higher-resolution images.

[16] propose an attention scaling factor for variable-sized image synthesis. MultiDiffusion [1] and SyncDiffusion [17] manipulated the generation process by binding together multiple diffusion generation processes. Despite their advancements, these approaches still exhibit object duplication. Recently, ScaleCrafter [11] mitigates object duplication through redilation that can dynamically adjust the convolutional receptive field during inference. ScaleCrafter can effectively address object duplication but somewhat degrades the image quality. DemoFusion [8] proposed a novel progressive generation schedule with skip residual and dilated sampling. It can generate high-quality high-resolution images, but the long generation time limits its practicality.

Specifically, MSW-MSA has two modifications: (i) Large window attention. Fig. 5b indicates that the mean attention distance of the top blocks is local but not very small. This suggests that the small window attention utilized in vision field [22] may not be suitable for the diffusion model.

(ii) Shift window operation across timestep. Window shift operation is needed to introduce cross-window connections. However, Stable Diffusion transformer block has only one self-attention module that is unable to process window attention and shift window attention successively. To apply shift window operation, we propose to shift different strides based on the timesteps. Specifically, we adopt a random selection strategy, where at each timestamp, we randomly select a stride parameter from a fixed set of shift strides.

Emerging images (EIs) are a type of stylized image that consists of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, colored only in black and white. EIs have significant applications that can contribute to the study of perceptual organization in cognitive psychology and serve as a CAPTCHA mechanism.

This paper proposes a universal framework HiEI to generate high-quality EIs from natural images, which contains three modules: the human-centered color quantification module (TTNet), the perceived difficulty control (PDC) module, and the template vectorization (TV) module.

Emerging images (EIs) are a type of stylized image that consists of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, colored only in black and white. EIs have significant applications that can contribute to the study of perceptual organization in cognitive psychology and serve as a CAPTCHA mechanism. However, generating high-quality EIs from natural images faces the following challenges: 1) color quantization—how to minimize perceptual loss when reducing the color space of a natural image to 1-bit; 2) perceived difficulty adjustment—how to adjust the perceived difficulty for object detection and recognition. This paper proposes a universal framework HiEI to generate high-quality EIs from natural images, which contains three modules: the human-centered color quantification module (TTNet), the perceived difficulty control (PDC) module, and the template vectorization (TV) module.

We propose a high-quality EI generation framework HiEI and experimentally demonstrate that EIs generated by HiEI can effectively defend against attacks from deep vision models [15,23,24,31,35]. + +Abstract. Emerging images (EIs) are a type of stylized image that consists of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, colored only in black and white. EIs have significant applications that can contribute to the study of perceptual organization in cognitive psychology and serve as a CAPTCHA mechanism. However, generating high-quality EIs from natural images faces the following challenges: 1) color quantization—how to minimize perceptual loss when reducing the color space of a natural image to 1-bit; 2) perceived difficulty adjustment—how to adjust the perceived difficulty for object detection and recognition. This paper proposes a universal framework HiEI to generate high-quality EIs from natural images, which contains three modules: the human-centered color quantification module (TTNet), the perceived difficulty control (PDC) module, and the template vectorization (TV) module. TTNet and PDC modules are specifically designed to address the aforementioned challenges. Experimental results show that compared to the existing EI generation methods, HiEI can generate EIs with superior content and style quality while offering more flexibility in controlling perceived difficulty. + +In particular, we experimentally demonstrate that EIs generated by HiEI can effectively defend against attacks from deep network-based visual models, confirming their viability as a CAPTCHA mechanism. + +Keywords: Emerging image $\cdot$ CAPTCHA $\cdot$ Color quantization + +# 1 Introduction + +Emerging images (EIs), also known as Mooney images in the field of cognitive science [3,17,27], are a type of stylized image composed of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, featuring only black and white colors [30]. When certain speckles are appropriately organized together, humans can perceive meaning objects in EIs. For example, we can perceive a dalmatian dog from the classical EI (Dalmatian dog) depicted in the first row of Fig. 1. + +The distinctive form endows them with significant application value. Due to the limited and fragmented visual cues in EIs, the human visual system relies on an iterative process of bottom-up perceptual organization and top-down active adjustment to perceive contents in EIs [5,32,38]. Therefore, EIs are often used to assist researches related to perceptual organization and closed-loop information processing mechanisms in cognitive psychology [9,17,25]. In addition, considering the differences in capabilities between visual models and the human visual system, EIs also serve as a CAPTCHA mechanism in the field of web security [2,11,26,30,34,37,41]. However, these related studies only demonstrated the effectiveness of EI-CAPTCHA defense against traditional vision models. Therefore, it is a valuable topic to explore whether EIs are effective in defending against vision models based on deep networks. + +Generating high-quality EIs from natural images is crucial for above-mentioned research. Mitra et al. [30] proposed a scheme to generate EIs based on three-dimensional object templates in a simulated environment. It relies on a template library and only generates EIs with limited content. Yang et al. [41] introduced an approach to generate EIs from natural images. It utilizes superpixels as rendering primitives and edges as cues, but its generated results exhibit significant stylistic differences from EIs. Generative models [42] can be utilized for the task of stylized image generation, but they typically require a substantial amount of high-quality training data. In addition, universal style transfer (UST) models struggle to balance style loss and content loss when generating images with specific styles [6, 18, 21, 29]. + +There are two main challenges, low-bit color quantization and perceived difficulty adjustment, in generating high-quality EIs from natural images. In comparison to the 24-bit full color space of natural images, EIs have only 1-bit. We first need to perform color quantization on the natural image. However, existing color quantization methods perform poorly in low-bit color spaces. In addition, the applications of EIs span across various fields such as psychology and web security. Especially in the cognitive psychology research, researchers need to present test images with different perceived difficulty levels to participants. + +In this paper, we propose HiEI, a universal framework for generating high-quality EIs from natural images. In particular, we employ this framework to explore an interesting problem: the potential of EIs as a CAPTCHA mechanism. HiEI consists of three components: human-centered color quantization module (TTNet), perceived difficulty control (PDC) module, and template vectorization (TV) module. TTNet learns to preserve rich visual cues in a limited color space by minimizing perceptual loss, producing human-centered color quantization results. Subsequently, the results are fed to the PDC module, where three parameters are set to quantitatively adjust the perceived difficulty and output the rendering templates. Finally, the TV module utilize Bézier curves to reconstruct the shape of the speckles in the rendering template, relizing the vectorization of the EIs. + +The main contributions are summarized as follows: + +- We propose HiEI, a universal framework for generating high-quality EIs from natural images. HiEI offer users the flexibility to control the perceived difficulty of the generated EIs, enhancing its practical applicability. +- We present a human-centered color quantization model TTNet to minimize the perceptual loss by preserving essential visual cues. Experimental results demonstrate that TTNet can perform better than other methods especially in the low-bit color space. +- We experimentally demonstrate that EIs generated by HiEI can effectively defend against attacks from the visual models based on deep networks, confirming its feasibility as a CAPTCHA scheme. In experiments, EIs significantly reduce the performance of multiple deep networks on tasks of object detection and image classification. + +# 2 Related Work + +Color quantization. MedianCut [16] proposed by Heckbert et al. is the first color quantization algorithm. The main idea is to recursively sort the pixels by color space and divide it along the median. Many variations exist of MedianCut algorithm, such as Center-cut [22]. Octree algorithm [13] proposed by Gervautz et al. is the first agglomerative color quantization algorithm and is based on the octree, a tree data structure in which each internal node has eight children. The popularity algorithm first builds a coarse color histogram of the input image using bit-cutting and then takes the set of most frequent colors in this histogram as the color palette. Hou et al. proposed a deep network-based color quantization model, ColorCNN [19], to minimize the accuracy loss by preserving the essential structur for deep networks. It demonstrates a higher classification accuracy than human-centered methods. + +Universal style transfer. Style transfer models are often used for image generation in specific styles and has two inputs: a style image and a content image, using the style pattern of the former to render the latter. Recent years have seen the rise of end-to-end style transfer models, with Gatys et al. [12] being among the pioneers who used CNNs for this task. These models can be + +classified into three categories according to their evolutionary development: 1) models that can only render one style [12]; 2) models that can render multiple styles [7]; 3) Universal style transfer (UST) models that can render arbitrary styles [6, 18, 20, 21, 29, 43]. UST models are particularly useful when training samples are scarce. In the experimental section, we will compare the generated results of our HiEI with UST models. + +# 3 Methodology + +This section presents the proposed framework HiEI for generating high-quality EIs from natural images. It first describes the overall flow of HiEI, and then presents the implementations of three components: TTNet, the PDC module, and the TV module. + +![](images/b1e5617402fb6b1746a65063dc67271e73ca8664c78c5ec26ddf8e744aa8c035.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overview of HiEI. It consists of three modules, TTNet, PDC module, and TV module. TTNet is responsible for extracting the key visual content in 1-bit color space from the given natural image. The PDC module quantitatively adjusts the perceived difficulty of the rendering template through two parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ . The TV module vectorizes the rendering templates. + +# 3.1 Overview + +Fig. 2 depicts the overall processing pipeline of HiEI. Given a natural image, HiEI first uses TTNet to reduce the color space of the image to 1-bit (the two-tone image) with the minimal perceptual. Subsequently, the PDC module extracts speckles from the two-tone image as the semantic primitive to control the perceived difficulty. It further divides the two-tone image into patches (scale primitive). The division is made with approximately equal areas, using the edges from the two-tone images as the constraint. The PDC module controls object recognition difficulty by adjusting the proportion of patches using the parameter $\alpha$ . The parameter $\beta$ is used to adjust the density contrast of patches between the foreground and the background, thus controlling object saliency. The TV module processes the output from the PDC module and produces two complementary rendering templates $T_{+}$ and $T_{-}$ . It then employs Bézier curves to smoothly fit the contour of speckles in $T_{+}$ and $T_{-}$ to generate a pair of vectorized EIs. + +# 3.2 Human-centered color quantization + +TTNet architecture. Inspired by the work of Hou et al. [19], we design the color quantization model TTNet as illustrated in Fig. 3. The first component is a U-net [33] auto-encoder that can extract abundant semantic information from the natural image $I$ . The extracted information are fed into the linear convolutional layer to generate the softmax probability map $PM$ with $s$ -channel, where $s$ is the size of the color space. The corresponding set of values of pixel $(x,y)$ in $PM$ represents the contribution ratio of the pixel's color RGB values to the $s$ colors. TTNet creates the color palette $CP$ using $PM$ . The RGB value of each quantized color is the weighted average of all pixels. The $i$ -th quantized color in $CP$ is defined as + +$$ +C P _ {i} = \frac {\sum_ {(x , y)} I (x , y) \cdot P M (x , y , i)}{\sum_ {(x , y)} P M (x , y , i)}. \tag {1} +$$ + +Next, we use $CP$ to map the pixels in $I$ from the 24-bit full color space to the quantized color space (e.g., 1-bit). The quantized image $\bar{I}$ is computed as + +$$ +\bar {I} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {s} C P (i) \cdot P M (i), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $PM(i)$ is used as the intensity of expression over entire quantized image $\bar{I}$ . + +![](images/c0fa021111113f703dd95d0ce72dd5f924da84141c15afd06df919a8d571a73d.jpg) +Fig. 3: Architecture of TTNet. It consists of U-net auto-encoder, output layer, and aligner. The U-net auto-encoder extracts semantic information from natural images, and then the output layer designs the color palette and creates the quantized image. Finally, the aligner enables TTNet to reduce the content difference between the quantized image and the natural image. + +Finally, we apply a pre-trained VGG19 encoder [35] to serve as a fixed image content aligner. It takes the natural image $I$ and the quantized image $\bar{I}$ as inputs and then outputs their content features $I_{c}$ and $\bar{I}_c$ . During the training process, TTNet will optimize the color quantization results by learning to reduce the difference between $I_{c}$ and $\bar{I}_c$ . + +Loss function. The human visual system perceives images by leveraging multiple cues, including color, texture, luminance, and edges. However, color + +quantification also leads to the loss of other visual cues, influencing the perception of the quantized image. To minimize the perceptual loss, we need to design a loss function that enables TTNet to preserve other visual cues when performing the color quantization. Here, the loss function is defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \left\| \bar {I} _ {c} - I _ {c} \right\| _ {2}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $I_{c}$ and $\bar{I}_c$ are defined as + +$$ +I _ {c} = \frac {1}{N _ {l}} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N _ {l}} \Phi_ {i} (I), \quad \bar {I} _ {c} = \frac {1}{N _ {l}} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N _ {l}} \Phi_ {i} (\bar {I}). \tag {4} +$$ + +$\varPhi_{i}(\cdot)$ denotes the features extracted from the $i$ -th layer in the pre-trained VGG19, and $N_{l}$ is the total number of network layers used for calculating content features. Fig. 4 depicts the visualized feature maps extracted from the first five layers of the pre-trained VGG19. With the increasing depth of the network, there is an expansion in the scale of the receptive field, which consequently results in a more significant loss of local content details. Here, we set $N_{l} = 5$ . We also conduct an experimental analysis to assess the impact of varying $N_{l}$ settings on results of color quantization in supplementary materials. + +![](images/9356c6e8c3aed2e70bc9cf893fab42d1b51b6b312cf160fd357bd1c108a27f01.jpg) +Fig. 4: Explanation of parameter $N_{l}$ setting in the loss function of TTNet. + +# 3.3 Perceived difficulty control (PDC) + +The PDC module is designed to quantitatively adjust the perceived difficulty of generated results, influencing the perception of humans on EIs. The challenge of PDC is how to quantify the perceived difficulty of EI, as the perceived difficulty is vague and subjective. Inspired by the psychological experiments on the perception of EI conducted by Li et al. [25], we split the perceptual process into two parts (object detection and object recognition) and take two different control primitives to quantify the perceived difficulty. + +Control primitives. We utilize the image matting model GFM [28] to separate the foreground $I_{f}$ and the background $I_{b}$ of $I$ . Next, we obtain a set of speckles $E$ by extracting the four-connected regions from the two-tone image. Subsequently, we take the edge information contained in the two-tone image as the constraint to divide $I$ into a set of patches with approximately equal areas [1], + +denoted as $A$ . The speckle and the patch will serve as the semantic primitive and the scale primitive, respectively. We use $I_{f}$ and $I_{b}$ to divide $E$ into $E_{f}$ and $E_{b}$ within the foreground and background regions, respectively. + +Recognition control. Humans use surface information (color, texture, luminance) and shape for object recognition [39]. Early object recognition theory [4] prioritizes shape over surface information. However, this perspective falls short in elucidating the distinction in recognizing animals with similar forms, such as horses and zebras. The limitation becomes evident when the shape of a zebra is presented in isolation, leading observers to erroneously identify it as a horse. The "shape + surface" theory [36] suggests that the importance of shape and surface information depends on structural differences between objects. Before adjusting the perceived difficulty, we need to determine which cues are more critical for recognizing foreground objects. + +Two representative examples shown in Fig. 5. The edges within the foreground region play a role in this process. We first frame the foreground object with a bounding box and divide it into $M*N$ grids, and then count the number $K$ of grids that contain edges. If $\frac{K}{M*N} \geq \omega$ (e.g., $\omega = 0.4$ ), the texture is more important in object recognition (Case 1); otherwise, the shape (Case 2). We set the parameter $\alpha$ to adjust the proportion of key discriminative cues. For Case 1, we keep the $\alpha$ -proportion patches randomly selected from each speckle in $E_f = \{e_{f_1},\dots,e_{f_n}\}$ . For example, we randomly select $m*\alpha$ patches from the $i$ -th speckle $e_{f_i} = \{a_1,\dots,a_m\}$ . For Case 2, we perform $\alpha$ -proportion sampling on each speckle that contains the contours of the object. + +![](images/6096575325278aa54ed51eda344737c590c91f1e602a615c3a987f7522e2e400.jpg) +Fig. 5: Illustration of two representative cases. The edges are used to determine which cues (texture and shape) are more critical for recognizing the foreground object. + +Saliency control. After the process of the recognition control, the updated set of speckles located within the foreground is denoted as $E_{f}^{\alpha} = \{e_{f_{1}}^{\alpha},\dots,e_{f_{n}}^{\alpha}\}$ , and the density of patches within the foreground $I_{f}$ is defined as + +$$ +D _ {f} = \frac {\sum_ {i = 1} ^ {n} N u m \left(e _ {f _ {i}} ^ {\alpha}\right)}{A r e a \left(I _ {f}\right)}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $Num(\cdot)$ is the function to obtain the number of elements in a speckle, and $Area(\cdot)$ is the function to calculate the area of a region. To control the saliency of the object, We set the parameter $\beta$ to adjust the contrast of patch density between the foreground and the background. The patch density of the + +background $D_{b}$ is calculated as + +$$ +D _ {b} = D _ {f} \cdot \beta . \tag {6} +$$ + +The number of patches originally contained in the background $E_{b} = \{e_{b_{1}},\dots,e_{b_{k}}\}$ is $\sum_{i=1}^{k}\mathsf{Num}(e_{b_{i}})$ . Theoretically, the number of patches contained in the background should be $D_{b} \cdot \mathsf{Area}(I_{b})$ . If $D_{b} \cdot \mathsf{Area}(I_{b}) > \sum_{i=1}^{k}\mathsf{Num}(e_{b_{i}})$ , then we need to add some speckles to the background. We do not generate speckles but select some ones from the speckles contained in the foreground object. We sort the speckles in $E_{b}$ in descending order based on the number of patch, and randomly place speckles of the sorted $E_{b}$ in empty areas of the background. Finally, the updated set of speckles in background is denoted as $E_{b}^{\beta}$ . + +Rendering templates. After setting the parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ , we obtain a binary image. Inspired by Rubin vase [14], we obtain two complementary rendering templates $T_{+}$ and $T_{-}$ by inversing the color of the binary image. Although two rendering templates contain the same edge information, variations in color significantly influence the figure-ground segregation process. Therefore, observers will have different difficulties in perceiving the target object from the EIs generated using these two templates. + +# 3.4 Template vectorization (TV) + +The distortion problem occurs when the user zooms in on a rendering template obtained based on a low-resolution natural image, influencing the perceptual quality of the observer. In HiEI, we solve the template distortion problem by vectorization. The method is the same for both rendering templates. Here, we take the template $T_{+}$ with $\alpha = 1$ and $\beta = 0$ shown in Fig. 6(a) to explain this process. For each speckle (e.g., the one in Fig. 6(b)) in $E_{f}^{\alpha} \bigcup E_{b}^{\beta}$ , we replace it with its patches shown in Fig. 6(c) and then extract the contour shown in Fig. 6(d). Next, we calculate the contour curvature. As shown in Fig. 6(e), we select two pixels, $p_0$ and $p_1$ , on the contour from each side of the current position $p_c(x_c, y_c)$ , and define the approximate curvature of $p_c$ as $\text{len}_{(p_0, p_1)} / \text{dis}_{(p_0, p_1)}$ , where $\text{len}_{(p_0, p_1)}$ is the length of the contour segment between $p_0$ and $p_1$ , and $\text{dis}_{(p_0, p_1)}$ is the distance between them. We then obtain the sampled contour pixels shown in Fig. 6(f) based on the normalized curvature. Finally, we fit these sampled pixels using Bézier curves to obtain the vectorized sepackle shown in Fig. 6(g). + +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Experiment setup + +Settings.

Animal 2K [28] is used in image matting and consists of 2,000 high-resolution images, with 1,800 images in the training set and 200 images in the test set. PASCAL VOC2012 [10] is a classical dataset for multiple computer vision tasks such as image classification, object detection, and image segmentation. It contains 20 classes of objects with a total of 11,530 images. STL-10 [8] is a dataset for the tasks of image classification. It has 10 classes of object images with $96 \times 96$ low resolution, 500 training images and 800 test images for each class. + +# 4.2 Comparison with other EI generation methods + +We compare HiEI with two existing EI generation methods: ArtThres [40] and EdgeEI [41], and five state-of-the-art UST models: AdaConv [6], WCT [29], AdaIN [21], QuantArt [20], InST [43]. AdaConv transfers the global statistics and spatial structure of the style image to the content image. WCT model uses + +a whitening and coloring transformation to align the second-order statistics of content and style features. The core of AdaIN is an adaptive instance normalization layer, which aligns the mean and variance of content image features with those of style image features. QuantArt aims to generate the stylized image with high visual-fidelity by pushing the latent representation of the generated artwork toward the centroids of the real artwork distribution with vector quantization. InST is a diffusion-based method. Its key idea is to learn the artistic style directly from a single painting and then guide the synthesis. + +![](images/d327440ef21c42f463d2818765b5746e2f29e26701cb95a549b4fe964be1b9d6.jpg) +Fig. 7: Qualitative comparison of generated EIs between our HiEI and other seven methods including five state-of-the-art UST models and two original EI generation methods. + +We observed color differences from the generated results in Fig. 7.

The algorithm of stylized image generation has two inputs: a style image and a content image, using the style pattern of the former to render the latter. Following studies [21,29], we use two metrics including the content loss and the style loss to evaluate the generated results. The content loss denotes the difference between the generated result and the content image and the style loss is the difference between the generated result and the style image Dalmatian Dog. The pre-trained VGG19 is used to extract features from the generated result at $256 \times 256$ resolution, and then we calculate the content loss and style loss. Table 2 lists the quantitative comparison results. HiEI exhibits significantly lower content loss and style loss than other methods. We find that although the generated results of $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,0, + )}$ and $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,0, - )}$ have the same edge information, $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,0, - )}$ is slightly lower in content loss and style loss than $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,0, + )}$ . This is attributed to the exchange of foreground and background colors, which amplifies the loss of luminance features in EIs. + +Table 2: Quantitative comparisons between the binarized results of five UST models and the results of ArtThres, EdgeEI and HiEI. + +

+ +User study. We recruited 100 participants in the study (mean age = 22.8 years; 50 female). The participants come from the School of Computer Science, School of Psychology, School of Life Sciences, and School of Mathematics. None of the participants had visual cognitive impairment. We prepared the style image Dalmatian Dog, 100 natural images from the Animal 2K dataset and 100 natural images from the PASCAL VOC2012, and their corresponding binary results as shown in Fig. 8. We presented subjects with the style image and one content image at a time, as well as seven generated results with a randomly disrupted order. The participants were required to complete the following two tasks. 1) Content preference: please select the one that is closest to the natural image in content. 2) Style preference: please select the one that is closest to the Dalmatian Dog in style. Finally, we collect 40,000 feedbacks from subjects, and the statistical results are listed in Table 3.

+ +images containing a specific class of objects". Inspired by these two CAPTCHA tasks, we explored the feasibility of EI-CAPTCHA by conducting the following experiments on EIs generated by HiEI. + +Object detection on EIs. Object detection methods can be broadly classified into traditional and end-to-end approaches. Traditional approaches usually rely on manually extracted features, including edges and color. Fig. 9 displays the performance of Edge Boxes [44], a classical traditional method, on natural images and EIs. The detection result marked with the yellow frame in Fig. 9(a) indicates that Edge Boxes can successfully detect the dog in the natural image. However, the result in Fig. 9(b) demonstrates that it fails to detect the object in the EI. In Fig. 9(c), the edge extraction results of the EI are fragmented. It is difficult to separate the object edges from the noise. + +![](images/396818e64a5074a7f6740efa9206802edf6ec198450ce28d4346278351261990.jpg) +(a) + +![](images/44f43e69dc2eb4fe0128fa7a47873de515e980fec7df2e005e89fc486ed524de.jpg) +(b) + +![](images/531375790c30f0487a20859090363851d5ec687836481f7343234a5cdea8aa8f.jpg) +(c) +Fig.9: Edge Boxes fails to detect the object in the EI. (a) Detection result on the natural image. (b) Detection result on the EI. (c) Edges of the EI in (b). + +In the past decade, end-to-end deep visual models have become the mainstream in object detection. YOLO, a classical one-stage detection model, has performed impressive results on the task of object detecton, and it is also used in the Google reCAPTCHA v2 solver. In this experiment, we test the ability of YOLO v8 [31] to detect objects on EIs. We firstly generate the corresponding emerging-style PASCAL VOC2012, denoted as $\mathrm{PASCALE}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ . For each natural image in the training set, we use $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,\{0,0.5,1\}, + / -)}$ to generate its three EIs with different perceived difficulty. For each image in the test set, we use $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(1,[0,1], + / -)}$ to generate its EI. We use the officially available pre-trained YOLO v8, and then fine-tune it on PASCAL VOC2012 and $\mathrm{PASCALE}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ , respectively. For training stage, we use a batch size of 16 and train the model for 300 epochs with an initial learning rate of 0.01. + +The image in PSACAL contains one or more objects and we select the one with the largest area as the target object. In the final detection result, if the + +IoU (Intersection over Union) is greater than 0.6 between the bounding box and the ground truth of the target object, and the recognition result is correct, thenYOLO successfully solves this sample. Table 4 lists the success rate ofYOLO in solving this task. $\mathrm{YOLO}_{\mathrm{NI}}$ and $\mathrm{YOLO}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ refer to the models fine-tune on PASCAL and $\mathrm{PASCAL}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ , respectively. On the test set (testval $\mathrm{EI}$ ) of $\mathrm{PASCAL}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ , $\mathrm{YOLO}_{\mathrm{NI}}$ performs significantly worse compared to its performance on the original test set (testval) of PASCAL. Despite a slight improvement in the performance of $\mathrm{YOLO}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ on $\mathrm{testval}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ , its accuracy remains low at $29.1\%$ . We also conduct tests to evaluate human performance on EIs. We randomly select 100 images from both testval and $\mathrm{testval}_{\mathrm{EI}}$ for participants to find the target objects. Participants are required to mark the target object with only one wireframe on a task image. We use the same criteria asYOLO to judge these results, and the success rate of human reached $89\%$ . We conclude that EIs can effectively defend against the attacks from the deep network-based CAPTCHA solver with little influence on human vision. + +Table 4: Performance of YOLO on object detection with the PASCAL and the PASCAL. + +

+ +Image classification on EIs. We employ AlexNet [24], VGG19 [35] and Resnet34 [15] as the task networks for the image classification. The accuracy of the top-1 classification was used to evaluate their classification performance. We first used $\mathrm{HiEI}_{(\{0.5,1\}, 0, + / -)}$ to generate the EIs on STL-10 dataset, denoted as STL-10Ei. We trained these three networks using the training set of STL-10, and then fine-tuned them on the train set of STL-10Ei. The results in Table 5 demonstrate that these three task networks exhibit poor classification performance even after being fine-tuned on EIs. We conclude, from the substantial performance disparities observed between deep neural networks and humans in the tasks of object detection and image classification, that EIs can serve as a CAPTCHA for distinguishing between humans and bots. + +# 4.4 Ablation study + +In this section, we conduct the ablation studies to justify the effectiveness of three modules in HiEI.

A qualitative comparison of four EIs generated with the same image is shown in Fig. 10(a). The EI generated using TTNet is closest to the natural images from the visual perception. Fig. 10(b) shows the results of quantitative evaluation based on content loss. TTNet enables HiEI to achieve lower content loss. In addition, we also set different sizes of color quantization space to test TTNet in supplementary materials.

HiEI is equipped with the human-centred colour quantization module, the perceived difficulty control module, and the template vectorization module. These three modules not only enable HiEI to improve the quality of generated EIs, but also enhance its practicality. Based on the EIs generated by HiEI, we validated the feasibility of the EI-CAPTCHA on two vision tasks, object detection and image classification. Experimental results demonstrate that EIs generated by HiEI can significantly weaken the detection and classification performance of deep network-based visual models. + +Acknowledgements.

Emerging images (EIs) are a type of stylized image that consists of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, colored only in black and white. EIs have significant applications that can contribute to the study of perceptual organization in cognitive psychology and serve as a CAPTCHA mechanism. However, generating high-quality EIs from natural images faces the following challenges: 1) color quantization—how to minimize perceptual loss when reducing the color space of a natural image to 1-bit; 2) perceived difficulty adjustment—how to adjust the perceived difficulty for object detection and recognition. This paper proposes a universal framework HiEI to generate high-quality EIs from natural images, which contains three modules: the human-centered color quantification module (TTNet), the perceived difficulty control (PDC) module, and the template vectorization (TV) module. TTNet and PDC modules are specifically designed to address the aforementioned challenges. Experimental results show that compared to the existing EI generation methods, HiEI can generate EIs with superior content and style quality while offering more flexibility in controlling perceived difficulty." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 135, + 654, + 235, + 665 + ], + "type": "page_footnote", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 135, + 654, + 235, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 135, + 654, + 235, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "* Corresponding author." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 117, + 455, + 150 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 117, + 455, + 150 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 117, + 455, + 150 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In particular, we experimentally demonstrate that EIs generated by HiEI can effectively defend against attacks from deep network-based visual models, confirming their viability as a CAPTCHA mechanism." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Emerging image " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " CAPTCHA " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 160, + 423, + 172 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Color quantization" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 194, + 230, + 208 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 194, + 230, + 208 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 194, + 230, + 208 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 221, + 481, + 293 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 221, + 481, + 293 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 221, + 481, + 293 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Emerging images (EIs), also known as Mooney images in the field of cognitive science [3,17,27], are a type of stylized image composed of discrete speckles with irregular shapes and sizes, featuring only black and white colors [30].

Recent advances in diffusion models have enabled 3D generation from a single image.

This progress has also influenced the image-to-3D domain, with works such as [20,39,46] employing SDS loss combined with reference-view pixel losses to optimize neural representations from a single image. While these optimization-based image-to-3D methods can produce reasonable 3D structures from a single viewpoint, the visual quality in novel views often lacks fidelity, exhibiting inconsistencies with the reference image and oversmoothed textures, as shown in Fig. 6. The primary challenge arises when, for novel views outside the reference view, the optimization becomes overly reliant on, and thus closely tied to, the inferred text prompt of reference image. These text prompts, even those derived through textual inversion [4, 11], often fail to capture the full visual details of the reference image, leading to inconsistent optimization results in novel views.

Our primary insight lies in the application of the diffusion-based image inversion technique [37] to retain the detailed structure and textures of a specific object, enabling the generation of novel views and the subsequent 3D representation of the object with consistent details. One of the key insight is we observe that by integrating depth information into the DDIM inversion [37] and the sampling process based on a depth-conditioned stable diffusion model [2], the reconstruction quality of the object is significantly improved and near perfect (illustrated in the Supplementary). Leveraging this observation, we introduce HiFi-123, a method that, while intuitive, effectively generates high-fidelity novel views and 3D content from a single reference image. Specifically, we design a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) pipeline in which both the reference image and a \"coarse\" estimation of the target novel view are inverted and reconstructed simultaneously, with the inversion process capturing fine details of the reference image, and the sampling process transferring texture details to the coarse novel view.

To improve the text-to-3D generation results, Magic3D [15] builds upon DreamFusion that introduces several design choices like coarse-to-fine optimization, using Instant NGP representation in the coarse stage and 3D mesh representation in the fine stage. Fantasy3D [6] further disentangles the modeling of geometry and appearance, and ProlificDreamer [42] proposes to modify score distillation sampling to variational score distillation which models the 3D parameters as a random variable instead of a constant.

Our pipeline is built upon a discovery that incorporates depth map into the DDIM inversion and sampling process using a depth-conditioned diffusion model [2] will near perfectly reconstruct the reference image, achieving comparable performance with optimization-based inversion [24] (discussed in the Supplementary). With this discovery, we can obtain the initial noise and the reverse processes that can faithfully reconstruct the detailed textures of the reference image in a zero-shot manner.

Through attention injection, fine textures of the reference image will be transferred to the coarse novel view. Thanks to the nearly perfect reconstruction quality of depth-based DDIM inversion, the inversion process and the sampling process are nearly consistent at every time step, we can thus simplify the pipeline to directly invert the two inputs for $t = l$ steps, and then symmetrically adopt $t = l$ denoising steps with attention injection to propagate textures of the reference view to the coarse novel view.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 489, + 787, + 775 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "The RGNV pipeline can serve as a plug-and-play method for enhancing the quality of diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis methods [17, 18], as shown in Fig. 5.

There are two key designs in the RGNV pipeline: the depth-based DDIM inversion and the attention injection. We qualitatively validate the effectiveness of these designs. As shown in Fig. 7, given a reference image and a generated coarse novel view, a naive approach to improve the novel view quality is adopting SDEdit [21], which introduces random noise on the coarse novel view and denoise it to a clean image using pretrained diffusion model. However, we found enhancement results of SDEdit (Fig. 7. (a)) presents color and textures inconsistent with the reference image, because it didn't make use of the reference information. In Fig. 7. (b), performing RGNV without the depth condition [2] also leads to inconsistent enhanced results. The reason lies in that the regular DDIM inversion (without depth condition) cannot precisely reconstruct the reference image (illustrated in the Supplementary), thus failing to transfer fine textures of reference image to the coarse novel view. Further, as shown in Fig. 7. (c), directly using the depth-conditioned SD model [2] without reference attention injection also leads to view inconsistent results. In contrast, as shown in Fig. 7.

Recent advances in diffusion models have enabled 3D generation from a single image.

A more ambitious approach is to construct 3D content from only a single image, whether obtained from the web or generated.

This progress has also influenced the image-to-3D domain, with works such as [20,39,46] employing SDS loss combined with reference-view pixel losses to optimize neural representations from a single image. While these optimization-based image-to-3D methods can produce reasonable 3D structures from a single viewpoint, the visual quality in novel views often lacks fidelity, exhibiting inconsistencies with the reference image and oversmoothed textures, as shown in Fig. 6. The primary challenge arises when, for novel views outside the reference view, the optimization becomes overly reliant on, and thus closely tied to, the inferred text prompt of reference image. These text prompts, even those derived through textual inversion [4, 11], often fail to capture the full visual details of the reference image, leading to inconsistent optimization results in novel views. What's more, the strong CFG guidance present in the SDS loss [27] further amplifies the issue.

Our primary insight lies in the application of the diffusion-based image inversion technique [37] to retain the detailed structure and textures of a specific object, enabling the generation of novel views and the subsequent 3D representation of the object with consistent details. One of the key insight is we observe that by integrating depth information into the DDIM inversion [37] and the sampling process based on a depth-conditioned stable diffusion model [2], the reconstruction quality of the object is significantly improved and near perfect (illustrated in the Supplementary). Leveraging this observation, we introduce HiFi-123, a method that, while intuitive, effectively generates high-fidelity novel views and 3D content from a single reference image. Specifically, we design a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) pipeline in which both the reference image and a \"coarse\" estimation of the target novel view are inverted and reconstructed simultaneously, with the inversion process capturing fine details of the reference image, and the sampling process transferring texture details to the coarse novel view.

Our pipeline is built upon a discovery that incorporates depth map into the DDIM inversion and sampling process using a depth-conditioned diffusion model [2] will near perfectly reconstruct the reference image, achieving comparable performance with optimization-based inversion [24] (discussed in the Supplementary). With this discovery, we can obtain the initial noise and the reverse processes that can faithfully reconstruct the detailed textures of the reference image in a zero-shot manner.

However, we found enhancement results of SDEdit (Fig. 7. (a)) presents color and textures inconsistent with the reference image, because it didn't make use of the reference information. In Fig. 7. (b), performing RGNV without the depth condition [2] also leads to inconsistent enhanced results. The reason lies in that the regular DDIM inversion (without depth condition) cannot precisely reconstruct the reference image (illustrated in the Supplementary), thus failing to transfer fine textures of reference image to the coarse novel view.

Recent advances in diffusion models have enabled 3D generation from a single image. However, current methods often produce suboptimal results for novel views, with blurred textures and deviations from the reference image, limiting their practical applications. In this paper, we introduce HiFi-123, a method designed for high-fidelity and multi-view consistent 3D generation. Our contributions are twofold: First, we propose a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) technique that significantly improves the fidelity of diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis methods. Second, capitalizing on the RGNV, we present a novel Reference-Guided State Distillation (RGSD) loss. When incorporated into the optimization-based image-to-3D pipeline, our method significantly improves 3D generation quality, achieving state-of-the-art performance. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach over existing methods, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Video results are available on the project page. + +# 1 Introduction + +The generation of 3D digital content is a fundamental task in computer vision and computer graphics with applications in robotics, virtual reality, and augmented reality. Producing such 3D content often demands proficiency in specialized software tools, setting a high threshold in terms of skill and cost. An alternative approach is through 3D digitization, which often relies on a large set of multi-view images and their corresponding camera poses; however, acquiring such data is challenging. A more ambitious approach is to construct 3D content from only a single image, whether obtained from the web or generated. While humans can intuitively infer 3D shapes and textures from 2D images, creating 3D assets from a single image using computer vision techniques is difficult due to the limited 3D cues and ambiguities of a single viewpoint. + +![](images/94fc30324ffad0cee521dfd40844d0c40909c0af9040ef07d562bcbac48f64c5.jpg) +Fig. 1: HiFi-123 is capable of generating high-fidelity 3D content from a single reference image. In each block above, we display the reference image (top left corner) along with the rendered novel views and normal of the generated 3D content. The presented novel views demonstrate that our approach maintains consistency and high-fidelity with the reference image, even in views significantly deviating from the reference view. + +Recent advances in diffusion models, trained on web-scale 2D image datasets, have led to significant improvements in text-to-image (T2I) generation [3,26,31, 33]. By leveraging the 3D priors inherent in T2I models, methods such as [27,42] have utilized score distillation sampling (SDS) to achieve notable results in text-to-3D generation. This progress has also influenced the image-to-3D domain, with works such as [20,39,46] employing SDS loss combined with reference-view pixel losses to optimize neural representations from a single image. While these optimization-based image-to-3D methods can produce reasonable 3D structures from a single viewpoint, the visual quality in novel views often lacks fidelity, exhibiting inconsistencies with the reference image and oversmoothed textures, as shown in Fig. 6. The primary challenge arises when, for novel views outside the reference view, the optimization becomes overly reliant on, and thus closely tied to, the inferred text prompt of reference image. These text prompts, even those derived through textual inversion [4, 11], often fail to capture the full visual details of the reference image, leading to inconsistent optimization results in novel views. What's more, the strong CFG guidance present in the SDS loss [27] further amplifies the issue. These problems not only compromise the realism of the generated content but also limit its potential for broader applications. + +Apart from optimization-based image-to-3D generation, Zero-1-to-3 [17] introduced an approach that demonstrated the efficacy of fine-tuning T2I models for zero-shot novel view synthesis, highlighting their ability to produce novel views in an optimization-free manner. However, models like Zero-1-to-3 require fine-tuning on synthetic multi-view datasets [7], which can lead to a noticeable degradation in model performance, particularly in generating unnatural and low-quality novel views that deviates from the reference image, as shown in Fig. 5. + +In this work, we aim to enhance the fidelity and consistency for both zero-shot novel-view synthesis and optimization-based image-to-3D generation, endowing generation of photo-realistic 3D assets. To this purpose, we devise a method that can simultaneously generate consistent novel views from a single image while maintaining high image quality. Our primary insight lies in the application of the diffusion-based image inversion technique [37] to retain the detailed structure and textures of a specific object, enabling the generation of novel views and the subsequent 3D representation of the object with consistent details. One of the key insight is we observe that by integrating depth information into the DDIM inversion [37] and the sampling process based on a depth-conditioned stable diffusion model [2], the reconstruction quality of the object is significantly improved and near perfect (illustrated in the Supplementary). Leveraging this observation, we introduce HiFi-123, a method that, while intuitive, effectively generates high-fidelity novel views and 3D content from a single reference image. Specifically, we design a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) pipeline in which both the reference image and a "coarse" estimation of the target novel view are inverted and reconstructed simultaneously, with the inversion process capturing fine details of the reference image, and the sampling process transferring texture details to the coarse novel view. This RGNV pipeline can be seamlessly integrated into the recent zero-shot novel view synthesis methods [17, + +18]. Moreover, the inversion process's unique properties enable us to re-formulate and re-derive the SDS loss [27], resulting in a Reference-Guided State Distillation (RGSD) loss that is easy to implement and efficient to optimize. As a result, we can also achieve high-fidelity in optimization-based image-to-3D generation that significantly exceeds prior techniques. + +We comprehensively evaluated HiFi-123 on both zero-shot novel view synthesis and image-to-3D generation tasks. Both qualitative and quantitative results indicate that our approach excels in generating high-fidelity and consistent novel views from a single reference image and further produces high-quality 3D content.

DreamFields [14] uses aligned image and text models to optimize NeRF [23] without 3D shape or multi-view data. DreamFusion [27] proposes a Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) method that replaces CLIP loss from DreamField with a loss derived from the distillation of a 2D diffusion model to optimize a parametric NeRF model, which becomes a paradigm for 3D generation using 2D diffusion. To improve the text-to-3D generation results, Magic3D [15] builds upon DreamFusion that introduces several design choices like coarse-to-fine optimization, using Instant NGP representation in the coarse stage and 3D mesh representation in the fine stage. Fantasy3D [6] further disentangles the modeling of geometry and appearance, and ProlificDreamer [42] proposes to modify score distillation sampling to variational score distillation which models the 3D parameters as a random variable instead of a constant. Apart from text-to-3D generation, 3D generation based on a single image using diffusion models (image-to-3D) has also made rapid progress. NeuralLift-360 [46] learns to recover a 3D object from a single reference image with CLIP-guided diffusion prior. In addition to using the SDS loss for distillation, RealFusion [20] and NeRDi [8] also adopt textual inversion to condition the diffusion model on a prompt with a token inverted by + +the reference image. Recently, Make-It-3D [39] employs textured point clouds as the representation in the fine stage to achieve high-quality results, Magic123 [28] and DreamCraft3D [38] suggests using an additional 3D diffusion prior trained on large-scale multi-view dataset for score distillation sampling. These methods often suffer from inconsistency between reference view and novel views. + +# 2.2 Diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis + +Trained on large-scale 2D image datasets, the 2D text-to-image diffusion models could generalize to unseen scenes and different viewing angles that could be used for distilling 3D assets. However, due to the data bias of 2D images, e.g., most images are captured from front views, the 2D diffusion model may lack multiview knowledge for 3D generation. Some efforts have been made to train the diffusion with 3D awareness. 3DiM [44] and Zero-1-to-3 [17] present viewpoint-conditioned diffusion model for novel view synthesis trained on multi-view images. Utilizing large-scale 3D data, Zero-1-to-3 achieves zero-shot generalization ability to unseen images. One-2-3-45 [16] uses the model from Zero-1-to-3 to generate multi-view images from the input view and leverage the generated results for 3D reconstruction. The recently works [4,18,40] try to generate multiview consistent images from a single view [18]. However, these methods usually produce lower-quality results compared with the input view, limiting their broader applications. + +# 3 Methodology + +# 3.1 Preliminary + +Diffusion models. A diffusion model consists of a forward process $q$ and a reverse process $p$ . In the forward process, starting from a clean data $\pmb{x}_0 \sim q_0(\pmb{x}_0)$ , noise is gradually added to the data point $\pmb{x}_0$ to construct noisy state at different time steps, formulated as $\pmb{x}_t = \alpha_t \pmb{x}_0 + \sigma_t \epsilon$ , where $\alpha_t$ and $\sigma_t$ are hyper-parameters satisfying $\alpha_t^2 + \sigma_t^2 = 1$ , $\epsilon \sim \mathcal{N}(\mathbf{0}, \mathbf{I})$ . The reverse process $p_{\phi}$ is defined by removing noise added on the clean data using a U-Net noise predictor $\epsilon_{\phi}$ . In text-to-image diffusion models [30, 33, 34], $\epsilon_{\phi}$ is trained by minimizing the score matching objective: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {D i f f}} (\phi) = \mathbb {E} _ {t \sim \mathcal {U} (0, 1)} [ w (t) \| \epsilon_ {\phi} (\boldsymbol {x} _ {t}; y, t) - \epsilon \| _ {2} ^ {2} ], \tag {1} +$$ + +where $w(t)$ is a time-dependent weighting function and $y$ is conditional text embedding. To balance the quality and diversity of the generated images, classifier-free guidance (CFG [12]) is adopted to modify the estimated noise as a combination of conditional and unconditional output: $\hat{\epsilon}_{\phi}(\pmb{x}_t;y,t) = (1 + s)\epsilon_{\phi}(\pmb{x}_t;y,t) - s\epsilon_{\phi}(\pmb{x}_t;t)$ , where $s > 0$ is the guidance scale. Increasing the guidance scale typically enhances the alignment between text and image, but at the cost of reduced diversity. + +DDIM inversion. In the reverse process $p_{\phi}$ , diffusion models often utilize deterministic DDIM sampling [37] to speed up inference. DDIM sampling converts + +![](images/72b2f97384ee028ea678f4d558a6a5b55d01e80e592e8cc1960ee71ad37b8833.jpg) +Fig. 2: Illustration of the RGNV pipeline. It performs depth-based DDIM inversion and sampling on both the reference image and coarse novel view, and utilizes attention injection to transfer detail textures from the reference image to the coarse novel view. + +random noise $\pmb{x}_T$ into clean data $\pmb{x}_0$ over a sequence of discrete time steps, from $t = T$ to $t = 1$ , formulated as: $\pmb{x}_{t-1} = (\alpha_{t-1} / \alpha_t)(\pmb{x}_t - \sigma_t \epsilon_\phi) + \sigma_{t-1} \epsilon_\phi$ . In contrast, DDIM inversion [9, 37] is a forward process that gradually converts a clean data $\pmb{x}_0$ back to a noisy state $\pmb{x}_T$ using denoising U-Net $\epsilon_\phi$ . From $t = 1$ to $t = T$ , we have $\pmb{x}_t = (\alpha_t / \alpha_{t-1})(\pmb{x}_{t-1} - \sigma_{t-1} \epsilon_\phi) + \sigma_t \epsilon_\phi$ . In the case of unconditional generation, the DDIM inversion process $q_\phi$ is completely consistent with the sampling process $p_\phi$ , so that the original data $\pmb{x}_0$ can be precisely reconstructed by applying DDIM sampling on the inverted $\pmb{x}_T$ . However, for the text-conditioned generation with classifier-free guidance, the two processes are not consistent and the reconstruction quality will significantly decrease [24]. + +Score distillation sampling (SDS). SDS [27] is an optimization method commonly used in recent text-to-3D generation [6,15,22,27,41,41] and image-to-3D generation methods [20,28,39,46]. The core idea of SDS is to distill prior knowledge from pre-trained T2I models by minimizing: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {S D S}} (\theta) = \mathbb {E} _ {t} \left[ \left(\sigma_ {t} / \alpha_ {t}\right) w (t) \mathrm {K L} \left(q \left(\boldsymbol {x} _ {t} \mid g (\theta , c); y, t\right) \| p _ {\phi} \left(\boldsymbol {x} _ {t}; y, t\right)\right) \right], \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\theta$ denotes the parameters of a trainable 3D representation (e.g., NeRF [23] or DMTet [35]) and $g(\theta, c)$ is a rendered image given a camera pose $c$ . By minimizing the KL divergence between distributions of noisy renderings and denoised images at different time steps, the 3D representation will be optimized to match the distribution of the images synthesized by the text-to-image diffusion model. In practice, the gradients of Eq. 2 is approximated by [27]: + +$$ +\nabla_ {\theta} \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {S D S}} (\theta) \approx \mathbb {E} _ {t, \epsilon} \left[ w (t) \left(\epsilon_ {\phi} (\pmb {x} _ {t}; y, t) - \epsilon\right) \frac {\partial \pmb {x} _ {0}}{\partial \theta} \right]. \qquad (3) +$$ + +Although optimizing with SDS loss can result in overall reasonable geometry, the generated 3D model often exhibits over-saturated colors and over-smoothed tex- + +tures [27], which could lead to inconsistent results compared with the reference image when applied to image-to-3D generation tasks. + +# 3.2 Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement for zero-shot novel view synthesis + +Given a reference image, previous diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis methods [17, 27] prone to produce degraded and inconsistent results in novel views compared with the reference view. To tackle this problem, we propose a Reference-Guided Novel view Enhancement (RGNV) pipeline to transfer the detailed textures of the reference image to the coarse novel view. Our pipeline is built upon a discovery that incorporates depth map into the DDIM inversion and sampling process using a depth-conditioned diffusion model [2] will near perfectly reconstruct the reference image, achieving comparable performance with optimization-based inversion [24] (discussed in the Supplementary). With this discovery, we can obtain the initial noise and the reverse processes that can faithfully reconstruct the detailed textures of the reference image in a zero-shot manner. Then, inspired by the progressive generation property of the reverse process where the geometry structure emerges first at the early denoising steps while texture details appear at the late denoising steps, we design a dual-branch pipeline to transfer fine textures of the reference image to the coarse novel views. + +As shown in Fig. 2, our pipeline performs DDIM inversion and sampling on both the reference image and coarse novel view simultaneously. In the forward process $q_{\phi}$ , we separately map the reference image and coarse novel view back to the initial noisy state, denoted as $\pmb{x}_T^r$ and $\pmb{x}_T$ , with $t = T$ steps' DDIM inversion. Subsequently, in the reverse process $\tilde{p}_{\phi}$ (differs from the regular reverse process $p_{\phi}$ ) of the pipeline, we first perform DDIM sampling separately on the two states to denoise them for $t = T - l$ steps, where coarse geometry structure has emerged. Then, in the following $t = l$ denoising steps where fine textures will gradually appear in the reference image branch, inspired by recent works on consistent video generation [5,45], we replace the $K, V$ matrices of denoising U-Net's self-attention in the coarse novel view branch with the corresponding matrices $K^{r}, V^{r}$ in the reference image branch, which we term as attention injection. Through attention injection, fine textures of the reference image will be transferred to the coarse novel view. Thanks to the nearly perfect reconstruction quality of depth-based DDIM inversion, the inversion process and the sampling process are nearly consistent at every time step, we can thus simplify the pipeline to directly invert the two inputs for $t = l$ steps, and then symmetrically adopt $t = l$ denoising steps with attention injection to propagate textures of the reference view to the coarse novel view. + +The RGNV pipeline can serve as a plug-and-play method for enhancing the quality of diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis methods [17, 18], as shown in Fig. 5. We also demonstrate it can improve optimization-based image-to-3D generation in the following section. + +![](images/bb015d533d63b59d3860b929046e6f1d1af9a93c6fb27a06724e85560a2929cf.jpg) +Fig. 3: Image-to-3D generation pipeline. We utilize two stages to generate high-fidelity 3D contents. In the coarse stage, we optimize an Instant-NGP representation using SDS loss, reference view reconstruction loss, depth loss, and normal loss. In the refine stage, we export DMTet representation and use our proposed RGSD loss to supervise training. + +# 3.3 Reference-Guided State Distillation for image-to-3D generation. + +As shown in Fig. 3, we adopt a coarse-to-fine optimization strategy to create 3D content from a single reference image. In the coarse stage, we use hybrid SDS loss provided by a 2D image diffusion model [1] and a 3D novel view synthesis diffusion model [17] to optimize a coarse Instant NGP [25]. The reference view reconstruction loss, depth loss, and normal loss are also involved to supervise training. As shown in Fig. 4. (a), after the coarse stage training, the resulting 3D representation already possesses reasonable geometry and colors. However, it suffers from over-smoothing and over-saturation of textures produced by the SDS loss. + +In the refine stage, we convert the implicit NeRF into an explicit DMTet representation [36] with learnable parameter $\theta$ for higher rendering resolution and efficient training. In particular, we fix the geometry of the DMTet and focus on refining texture details in this stage. Several works [28, 39] continue optimizing the texture details using SDS loss in the refine stage. Nonetheless, it can be observed in Eq. 2 that SDS loss leads to an optimization direction that forces the forward process $q$ of rendered novel views to approach the distribution of the reverse process $p_{\phi}$ of text-to-image generation. Due to the ambiguity of the inferred text descriptions and the large CFG guidance, the optimized novel views are often inconsistent with the reference image, as shown in Fig. 4. (b). + +To address the inferior textures caused by SDS loss and ensure high fidelity in novel views, we integrate our proposed RGNV pipeline into the refine stage. One naive approach would be to randomly render coarse novel views, utilize the RGNV pipeline for enhancement, and subsequently apply reconstruction loss using the enhanced images. We refer to it as image loss. As shown in Fig. 4. (c), we found this approach produces oversmoothed textures, as even slight inconsistencies in the overlapping areas between enhanced images can accumulate and lead to blurry optimization results. Inspired by SDS loss (Eq. 2) that distills from the noisy states of text-to-image generation process for 3D generation, we propose a Reference-Guided State Distillation (RGSD) loss to distill from the generation process of our RGNV pipeline for high-fidelity and consistent texture synthe + +![](images/2c8732ba9e63b766d51394d7f1e08412e142089327e5696046421a041e0c100f.jpg) +A DSLR photo of a blue jay standing on a large basket of rainbow macarons +Reference image +Fig. 4: Comparison of using different losses in the refine stage. + +![](images/4641c8b2a1032b2e7faec11ab04da9050ed00ab671a4337112ac8cf5233b0a6c.jpg) +(a).

Specifically, we construct a series of optimization targets using intermediate states from the RGNV pipeline, the resulting objective can be formulated as: + +$$ +\min _ {\theta} \mathbb {E} _ {t \sim \mathcal {U} [ 0, l / T)} [ \mathrm {K L} (q _ {\phi} (\boldsymbol {x} _ {t} | g (\theta , c); y, m, t) \| \tilde {p} _ {\phi} (\boldsymbol {x} _ {t}; y, m, r, t)) ], \tag {4} +$$ + +where $m$ denotes the conditioned depth map, $r$ denotes the reference image, $q_{\phi}$ and $\tilde{p}_{\phi}$ are the inversion and sampling process of the RGNV pipeline. Compared with the SDS loss (Eq. 2) that relies on the inferred high-level text prompts for optimization, this improved objective forces noisy states $\boldsymbol{x}_t$ of the coarse novel views to approach their enhanced states $\tilde{\boldsymbol{x}}_t$ produced by the reference-conditioned RGNV pipeline, ensuring that the supervision from the reference image can cover all the camera views, thereby endowing an accurate optimization direction towards the distribution of the 3D object that is consistent with the reference image. + +Since $q_{\phi}$ and $\tilde{p}_{\phi}$ are deterministic processes given a specific reference image, we can solve Eq. 4 using a distance metric [13] such as L2 distance. In this way, Eq. 4 can be simplified as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {R G S D}} (\theta) = \mathbb {E} _ {t \sim \mathcal {U} [ 0, l / T)} \left[ \| \boldsymbol {x} _ {t} - \tilde {\boldsymbol {x}} _ {t} \| _ {2} ^ {2} \right]. \tag {5} +$$ + +There are two inefficiencies in solving this objective. First, it requires multiple estimation of the U-Net $\epsilon_{\phi}$ to get the optimization target $\tilde{\pmb{x}}_t$ . As depicted in Fig. 2, we need to invert the rendered novel view $\pmb{x}_0 = g(\theta, c)$ into a noisy state $\pmb{x}_l \sim q_{\phi}(\pmb{x}_l)$ with $l$ -step DDIM inversion, then perform with attention injection to denoise $\pmb{x}_l$ to an enhanced latent $\tilde{\pmb{x}}_t \sim \tilde{p}_{\phi}(\tilde{\pmb{x}}_t)$ and detach it from the computation graph to make it the final optimization target. To accelerate training, we pre-select two fixed camera views and derive their $\tilde{\pmb{x}}_0$ states through the RGNV pipeline, using them as the optimization target at the $t = 0$ time step. During training, we alternate between sampling $t = 0$ to optimize the pre-defined $\tilde{\pmb{x}}_0$ states with fixed camera poses and sampling $t \sim \mathcal{U}(0, l / T)$ to optimize the intermediate $\tilde{\pmb{x}}_t$ states with random camera poses. We found this leads to faster convergence compared with SDS loss, and results in superior results in novel views. Second, as shown in Eq. 4, unlike regular forward process $q$ where the gradients of $\pmb{x}_t = \alpha_t \pmb{x}_0 + \sigma_t \epsilon$ can be efficiently calculated, it requires multiple forward-pass of U-Net $\epsilon_{\phi}$ to get $\pmb{x}_t$ in DDIM inversion $q_{\phi}$ , in which the gradient is expensive to compute.

Fig. 5 presents the qualitative comparison with Zero-1-to-3, please refer to the Supplementary for qualitative comparison with SyncDreamer. We found that although the novel views generated by the baselines exhibit reasonable geometry, their textures lack details and appear to be unreasonable, resulting in poor consistency with the reference image. In comparison, by applying the RGNV pipeline on the baselines, the fidelity and texture quality of the generated novel views are significantly improved. For quantitative evaluation, referring [28, 39, 46], we adopt contextual distance [19] and CLIP-similarity [29] to measure the consistency between reference image and novel views.

Make-It-3D is a two-stage method that leverages point cloud representation in the second stage for training at higher resolution. 2D SDS loss is adopted in its two stages for geometry sculpturing and texture refining. Magic123 is also a two-stage method that uses both 2D SDS loss and 3D SDS loss provided by Zero-1-to-3 [17] to balance between geometry and texture quality. + +Comparison on single view dataset. We firstly conduct comparisons against baseline methods on the aforementioned single view dataset. Fig. 6 displays the qualitative comparison between our method and the baselines, where we showcase two novel views for each generated object. We also present a comparison of the normal map optimized by Magic123 [28] and our method. It can be observed that, under the viewpoint that deviates significantly from the reference image, all the baseline methods fail to generate reasonable textures. The inconsistency is particularly evident at the boundaries between invisible and occluded areas, resulting in noticeable seams. In contrast, our method can maintain the same texture details as the reference image, which greatly improves the fidelity of the generated 3D assets. Please refer to the supplementary videos for a more comprehensive comparison. For quantitative evaluation, except for adopting CLIP-similarity and contextual distance for evaluating novel views, we also use LPIPS [47] to evaluate the reference view reconstruction quality.

Comparison on 3D dataset. Following the 3D evaluation settings in Sec. 4.2, we adopt the Google Scanned Object dataset [10] and use 30 objects for evaluation, and use PSNR, SSIM [43] and LPIPS [47] to quantitatively evaluate the novel view synthesis quality. Referring [18], we also utilize the Chamfer Distance and Volume IoU to evaluate the generated geometry. Tab. 2 shows the quantitative results, which validates that our method is capable of generating 3D contents with better texture details as well as reasonable geometry. Qualitative results are in the Supplementary. + +# 4.4 Ablation study + +Design space of the RGNV pipeline. There are two key designs in the RGNV pipeline: the depth-based DDIM inversion and the attention injection. We qualitatively validate the effectiveness of these designs. As shown in Fig. 7, given a reference image and a generated coarse novel view, a naive approach to improve the novel view quality is adopting SDEdit [21], which introduces random noise on the coarse novel view and denoise it to a clean image using pretrained diffusion model. However, we found enhancement results of SDEdit (Fig. 7. (a)) presents color and textures inconsistent with the reference image, because it didn't make use of the reference information. In Fig. 7. (b), performing RGNV without the depth condition [2] also leads to inconsistent enhanced results. The reason lies in that the regular DDIM inversion (without depth condition) cannot precisely reconstruct the reference image (illustrated in the Supplementary), thus failing to transfer fine textures of reference image to the coarse novel view. Further, as shown in Fig. 7. (c), directly using the depth-conditioned SD model [2] without reference attention injection also leads to view inconsistent results. In contrast, as shown in Fig. 7. (d), with depth-based DDIM inversion that capture fine details + +Table 3: Quantitative ablation on the effectiveness of RGSD loss. + +

In the refine stage, we propose a RGSD loss to improve texture quality and consistency. Qualitative results of the coarse stage and refine stage are shown in Fig. 8. It can be found that although the coarse stage can provide a reasonable geometry, its texture details are different from the reference image. Through refine stage optimization using our proposed RGSD loss, the texture of the novel views are significantly improved. We further conduct quantitative ablation on datasets adopted in previous experiments, and evaluate the following settings: coarse stage, refine stage using SDS loss, and refine stage using RGSD loss, results are reported in Tab. 3. The results further demonstrate the effectiveness of refine stage training using RGSD loss, and validate that RGSD achieves better performance in enhancing texture quality and consistency than SDS loss. + +# 5 Conclusion and Discussion + +We introduce HiFi-123, a method that can be applied for generating high-fidelity novel views in a zero-shot manner as well as high-quality 3D contents. Our approach has two key contributions. Firstly, we propose an RGNV pipeline, which narrows the quality gap between synthesized and reference views in zero-shot novel view synthesis. Based on this pipeline, we further derive an RGSD loss to supervise and optimize 3D representations, resulting in highly realistic 3D assets. + +# Acknowledgement + +This work was supported in part by Natural Science Foundation of China (No.62332002, 62202014), and Shenzhen Basic Research Program (No.JCYJ20220813151736001). + +# References + +[1] Deepfloyd. https://www deepfloyd.ai/deepfloyd-if, 2023.9.29 +[2] Sd-2-depth. https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-depth, 2023.9.29 +[3] Balaji, Y., Nah, S., Huang, X., Vahdat, A., Song, J., Kreis, K., Aittala, M., Aila, T., Laine, S., Catanzaro, B., et al.: edifi: Text-to-image diffusion models with an ensemble of expert denoisers. arXiv preprint arXiv:2211.01324 (2022) +[4] Burgess, J., Wang, K.C., Yeung, S.: Viewpoint textual inversion: Unleashing novel view synthesis with pretrained 2d diffusion models. arXiv preprint arXiv:2309.07986 (2023) +[5] Cao, M., Wang, X., Qi, Z., Shan, Y., Qie, X., Zheng, Y.: Masactrl: Tuningfree mutual self-attention control for consistent image synthesis and editing.

Recent advances in diffusion models have enabled 3D generation from a single image.

Our contributions are twofold: First, we propose a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) technique that significantly improves the fidelity of diffusion-based zero-shot novel view synthesis methods. Second, capitalizing on the RGNV, we present a novel Reference-Guided State Distillation (RGSD) loss. When incorporated into the optimization-based image-to-3D pipeline, our method significantly improves 3D generation quality, achieving state-of-the-art performance.

This progress has also influenced the image-to-3D domain, with works such as [20,39,46] employing SDS loss combined with reference-view pixel losses to optimize neural representations from a single image. While these optimization-based image-to-3D methods can produce reasonable 3D structures from a single viewpoint, the visual quality in novel views often lacks fidelity, exhibiting inconsistencies with the reference image and oversmoothed textures, as shown in Fig. 6. The primary challenge arises when, for novel views outside the reference view, the optimization becomes overly reliant on, and thus closely tied to, the inferred text prompt of reference image. These text prompts, even those derived through textual inversion [4, 11], often fail to capture the full visual details of the reference image, leading to inconsistent optimization results in novel views.

Our primary insight lies in the application of the diffusion-based image inversion technique [37] to retain the detailed structure and textures of a specific object, enabling the generation of novel views and the subsequent 3D representation of the object with consistent details. One of the key insight is we observe that by integrating depth information into the DDIM inversion [37] and the sampling process based on a depth-conditioned stable diffusion model [2], the reconstruction quality of the object is significantly improved and near perfect (illustrated in the Supplementary). Leveraging this observation, we introduce HiFi-123, a method that, while intuitive, effectively generates high-fidelity novel views and 3D content from a single reference image. Specifically, we design a Reference-Guided Novel View Enhancement (RGNV) pipeline in which both the reference image and a \"coarse\" estimation of the target novel view are inverted and reconstructed simultaneously, with the inversion process capturing fine details of the reference image, and the sampling process transferring texture details to the coarse novel view.

DreamFusion [27] proposes a Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) method that replaces CLIP loss from DreamField with a loss derived from the distillation of a 2D diffusion model to optimize a parametric NeRF model, which becomes a paradigm for 3D generation using 2D diffusion. To improve the text-to-3D generation results, Magic3D [15] builds upon DreamFusion that introduces several design choices like coarse-to-fine optimization, using Instant NGP representation in the coarse stage and 3D mesh representation in the fine stage.

There are two key designs in the RGNV pipeline: the depth-based DDIM inversion and the attention injection. We qualitatively validate the effectiveness of these designs. As shown in Fig. 7, given a reference image and a generated coarse novel view, a naive approach to improve the novel view quality is adopting SDEdit [21], which introduces random noise on the coarse novel view and denoise it to a clean image using pretrained diffusion model. However, we found enhancement results of SDEdit (Fig. 7. (a)) presents color and textures inconsistent with the reference image, because it didn't make use of the reference information. In Fig. 7. (b), performing RGNV without the depth condition [2] also leads to inconsistent enhanced results. The reason lies in that the regular DDIM inversion (without depth condition) cannot precisely reconstruct the reference image (illustrated in the Supplementary), thus failing to transfer fine textures of reference image to the coarse novel view. Further, as shown in Fig. 7. (c), directly using the depth-conditioned SD model [2] without reference attention injection also leads to view inconsistent results. In contrast, as shown in Fig. 7.

It can be found that although the coarse stage can provide a reasonable geometry, its texture details are different from the reference image. Through refine stage optimization using our proposed RGSD loss, the texture of the novel views are significantly improved. We further conduct quantitative ablation on datasets adopted in previous experiments, and evaluate the following settings: coarse stage, refine stage using SDS loss, and refine stage using RGSD loss, results are reported in Tab. 3.

With the advancements of vision-language models, the growing demand for generating customized image descriptions under length, target regions, and other various control conditions brings new challenges for evaluation. Most existing metrics, designed primarily for single-sentence image captioning with an overall matching score, struggle to accommodate complex description requirements, resulting in insufficient accuracy and interpretability of evaluation. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score, a hierarchical parsing graph-based fine-grained evaluation metric. Specifically, we model both text and images as parsing graphs, which organize multi-granular instances into a hierarchical structure according to their inclusion relationships, which provides a comprehensive scene analysis for both modalities from global to local. Based on the fine-grained matching between the graphs, we can evaluate the fidelity to ensure text contents are related to image and the adequacy to ensure the image is covered by text at multiple levels. Furthermore, we employ the large language model to evaluate fluency of the language expression. Human correlation experiments on four caption-level benchmarks show that the proposed metric outperforms existing metrics. At the paragraph-level, we construct a novel dataset ParaEval and demonstrate the accuracy of the HiFi-Score in evaluating long texts. We further show its superiority in assessing vision-language models and its flexibility when applied to various image description tasks.", + "bbox": [ + 259, + 330, + 738, + 636 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Keywords: Image Description Evaluation $\\cdot$ Hierarchical Parsing Graph $\\cdot$ Vision-language Model", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 648, + 740, + 676 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 703, + 375, + 718 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "The evaluation of image description generation has always been an important and challenging topic.

Specifically, we model both images and texts as HPGs, analyzing all semantic instances from global to local and incorporating attributes and semantic relationships. Then, the scores of fidelity and adequacy are calculated gradually from the bottom up. We further evaluate the fluency of language expression taking the advantage of the LLMs. Experimental results on caption-level datasets demonstrate HiFi-Score's higher human consistency. Moreover, we construct paragraph-level dataset ParaEval to evaluate current metrics with long-context descriptions, and validate the superiority of HiFi-Score. Extensive evaluations demonstrate the potential of HiFi-Score for evaluating VLMs' generative capabilities and the diverse image description tasks.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 657, + 787, + 840 + ], + "page_idx": 13 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "14", + "bbox": [ + 217, + 114, + 235, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 13 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "Z.

With the advancements of vision-language models, the growing demand for generating customized image descriptions under length, target regions, and other various control conditions brings new challenges for evaluation. Most existing metrics, designed primarily for single-sentence image captioning with an overall matching score, struggle to accommodate complex description requirements, resulting in insufficient accuracy and interpretability of evaluation. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score, a hierarchical parsing graph-based fine-grained evaluation metric. Specifically, we model both text and images as parsing graphs, which organize multi-granular instances into a hierarchical structure according to their inclusion relationships, which provides a comprehensive scene analysis for both modalities from global to local. Based on the fine-grained matching between the graphs, we can evaluate the fidelity to ensure text contents are related to image and the adequacy to ensure the image is covered by text at multiple levels. Furthermore, we employ the large language model to evaluate fluency of the language expression. Human correlation experiments on four caption-level benchmarks show that the proposed metric outperforms existing metrics. At the paragraph-level, we construct a novel dataset ParaEval and demonstrate the accuracy of the HiFi-Score in evaluating long texts. We further show its superiority in assessing vision-language models and its flexibility when applied to various image description tasks." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.262, + 0.65, + 0.741, + 0.678 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: Image Description Evaluation \\(\\cdot\\) Hierarchical Parsing Graph \\(\\cdot\\) Vision-language Model" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.217, + 0.704, + 0.377, + 0.719 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.735, + 0.788, + 0.841 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "The evaluation of image description generation has always been an important and challenging topic.

This implies that every element in the text HPG should have correspondence in the image HPG. Adequacy demands the text to capture the image gist and provide a comprehensive description within a constrained length, which can be seen as the recall of image content. The image HPG should be covered by the text HPG as much as possible, especially the areas considered important by humans.

Here we conduct ablation experiments to validate the effectiveness of modules and settings. As shown in Table 2, the full model finetuned on Visual Genome (last row) yields the overall best performance among the variant models. Compared to the model without fine-tuning (first row), the performance improvement demonstrates that fine-tuning is beneficial for enhancing the model's local matching capability. When comparing fidelity and adequacy, fidelity's performance is a bit higher than adequacy's, as correctness (mainly reflected in fidelity) is the most fundamental criterion for image descriptions. The best outcomes are achieved when both are combined. As for ITC and ITM, it is observed that Flickr8k-Exp and Pascal-50S prefer ITC, whereas Composite and THumB1.0 prefer ITM. This difference likely arises because ITC excels in global alignment between modals, while ITM has stronger ability to discern fine-grained differences.

Specifically, we model both images and texts as HPGs, analyzing all semantic instances from global to local and incorporating attributes and semantic relationships. Then, the scores of fidelity and adequacy are calculated gradually from the bottom up. We further evaluate the fluency of language expression taking the advantage of the LLMs. Experimental results on caption-level datasets demonstrate HiFi-Score's higher human consistency. Moreover, we construct paragraph-level dataset ParaEval to evaluate current metrics with long-context descriptions, and validate the superiority of HiFi-Score.

With the advancements of vision-language models, the growing demand for generating customized image descriptions under length, target regions, and other various control conditions brings new challenges for evaluation. Most existing metrics, designed primarily for single-sentence image captioning with an overall matching score, struggle to accommodate complex description requirements, resulting in insufficient accuracy and interpretability of evaluation. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score, a hierarchical parsing graph-based fine-grained evaluation metric. Specifically, we model both text and images as parsing graphs, which organize multi-granular instances into a hierarchical structure according to their inclusion relationships, which provides a comprehensive scene analysis for both modalities from global to local. Based on the fine-grained matching between the graphs, we can evaluate the fidelity to ensure text contents are related to image and the adequacy to ensure the image is covered by text at multiple levels. Furthermore, we employ the large language model to evaluate fluency of the language expression. Human correlation experiments on four caption-level benchmarks show that the proposed metric outperforms existing metrics. At the paragraph-level, we construct a novel dataset ParaEval and demonstrate the accuracy of the HiFi-Score in evaluating long texts. We further show its superiority in assessing vision-language models and its flexibility when applied to various image description tasks. + +Keywords: Image Description Evaluation $\cdot$ Hierarchical Parsing Graph $\cdot$ Vision-language Model + +# 1 Introduction + +The evaluation of image description generation has always been an important and challenging topic. In recent years, with the significant improvement in the generative abilities of vision-language models, such as Flamingo [2], Llava [31], InstructBLIP [9], etc., image description tasks have become more diversified. As shown in Fig. 1, compared to classic image captioning task, image paragraphing [23] requires models to generate longer, more detailed description. Dense captioning [19] focuses on generating distinctive descriptions for local regions. + +![](images/a43fd2ee5b40397f62ebb71bbf898c9ae311e675c6446e097c5a983866fdaff6.jpg) + +

Depending on different requirements, image description includes captioning, paragraphing, dense captioning, etc., requiring more general and comprehensive evaluation metrics. + +# Image captioning: + +A woman sits in a boat and a distant man faces the sea on the beach. + +# Image paragraphing: + +Two people on a beach under an overcast sky.

On the right, a man dressed in a dark suit is looking at the sea ... + +# Dense captioning: + +A man in a black suit. + +A woman sitting on the boat. + +A boat stranding on the beach. + +Moreover, controllable captioning tasks are proposed to generate customized captions according to different requirements of length [10], format [11], and description coverage [7, 21]. Such various image description tasks pose higher demands on the evaluation metrics. + +However, current evaluation metrics struggle to adapt to these complex descriptive scenarios. Early metrics (BLEU [35], CIDEr [41], etc.) evaluate captions only based on human-written references, which are not only limited by reference annotations but also hard to guarantee the accuracy of n-gram matching as the text grows longer. Recently, a number of methods based on image-text matching are proposed, such as UMIC [26] and CLIPScore [13]. Benefiting from the powerful alignment capability of vision-language models, these metrics can evaluate captions with greater accuracy and higher human consistency. However, they still encounter challenges when applied to diverse image description tasks because of the unitary modal representations and fixed evaluation methods. Besides, most metrics only give one overall matching score, which is less interpretable and readable, especially when users need to locate the incorrect expression in the candidate description. + +Research on human cognition [34] suggests that humans perceive scenes in a pattern that progresses from coarse to fine and from global to local. Therefore, we propose to model both the image and description as Hierarchical Parsing Graphs (HPG) to provide a natural and structured representation. Based on the HPG, we introduce HiFi-Score to provide a fine-grained multidimensional evaluation of image descriptions. As in Fig. 2 (left), we first conduct fine-grained analysis of both modalities, and organize them into a tree-like structure, in which the root node represents the entire image or text and is recursively decomposed into child object nodes of different granularities, while the semantic relationships between objects are represented by edges between nodes. In addition, attributes are regarded as additional nodes attached to object nodes. Thus, the image-text matching for description evaluation is converted to the matching between the image HPG and the text HPG. This representation can adapt to image + +descriptions of varying lengths and scopes. In addition to the top-level overall evaluation, instances at different levels can also receive independent evaluations, achieving more comprehensive and detailed results. + +By progressively aggregating the fine-grained matching of various levels on the HPGs, multidimensional image description evaluation can be conducted. Inspired by the FAIER metric [42], the evaluation of image descriptions can be decoupled into three dimensions: fidelity, adequacy and fluency. Fidelity, regarding the issue of hallucinations during generation, requires that all contents in the description should originate from the image without additions or distortions, measuring the precision of text. This implies that every element in the text HPG should have correspondence in the image HPG. Adequacy demands the text to capture the image gist and provide a comprehensive description within a constrained length, which can be seen as the recall of image content. The image HPG should be covered by the text HPG as much as possible, especially the areas considered important by humans. Fluency considers the language itself, indicating that the text is grammatically correct and linguistically smooth. We evaluate it through a prompt-based method employing the LLM. As depicted on the right side of Fig. 2, in practice, we convert the image and text HPGs into regions and phrases, respectively. We then find the most closely matching image region for each phrase and calculate the scores recursively from the bottom up on HPGs based on the similarity scores of local matching. + +![](images/f6156e405688b0eb136a87482366610bf9bfd549e4b416cb2baded6e5b189294.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overview of image description evaluation by HiFi-Score.

Specifically, we model both the image and the text hierarchically to obtain a general and extendable structured representation and then assess the fidelity and adequacy based on the local matching of graphs. Furthermore, we make use of the LLM to evaluate fluency of the candidate descriptions, further refining the evaluation. We conduct experiments on caption-level datasets Flickr8k-Expert [14], Compos + +ite [1], Pascal-50S [41], and THumB1.0 [20], demonstrating the proposed metric exhibits higher human consistency. In addition, we construct a paragraph-level evaluation dataset ParaEval, and verify that the metric is more accurate in evaluating long texts. HiFi-Score demonstrates its potential for evaluating VLMs' generative capabilities and the diverse image description tasks. + +# 2 Related Works + +As shown in Fig. 3, according to the main evaluation criteria type, caption evaluation metrics can be categorized into two types: reference-based and image-based. Each type can be further divided into coarse-grained and fine-grained metrics. The coarse-grained metrics mainly focus on the overall matching between the candidate and image or references, while the fine-grained metrics analyze the local semantics, providing a more comprehensive and elaborated evaluation. + +![](images/9de4a95b81243a99fb3497054d5d7b308e1975cc1ad8e82d1094620af5ddb907.jpg) +Fig. 3: Caption evaluation metrics can be classified into two types: reference-based and image-based. Each type can be further divided into coarse-grained and fine-grained based on the granularity of matching. + +# 2.1 Reference-based metrics + +These methods utilize human-written references in place of the source image as the basis for evaluating candidate captions. Inspired by machine translation, early metrics such as BLUE [35], ROUGE [30], METEOR [4], and CIDEr [41] assess the similarity between the references and candidate caption by calculating n-gram overlap based on certain rules. SPICE [3] decomposes both sentences into semantic scene graphs to obtain a more structured representation and a more detailed matching, which can be seen as a fine-grained metric. + +Compared to these entirely rule-based methods, recent studies that incorporate learning-based metrics show greater resilience to linguistic ambiguity. For example, caption evaluation can be improved by utilizing a learning-based framework to combine four rule-based metrics [40]. BERTScore [43] calculates the similarity between the text embeddings acquired from the pre-trained BERT model [12]. With the development of LLMs, CLAIR [5] further improves the consistency with human, relying solely on the powerful language capability of GPT-3.5. However, all reference-based metrics ignore the original image, resulting in limitations imposed by the reference annotations and inevitable information loss from the image to the reference. + +# 2.2 Image-based metrics + +A small number of references cannot cover all the image content, and reference annotating is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, many evaluation metrics based on image-text matching have been proposed. LEIC [8] proposes a neural network that is trained to determine whether a given caption is generated by humans. TIGER [18] and REO [17] utilize the image-text matching model SCAN [27] to generate grounding vectors for the image, candidate caption, and references, and then evaluate candidate captions based on the similarity of these vectors. VIFIDEL [33] focuses on fidelity in image captioning, using weighted object labels from images and comparing them to captions via word mover's distance [25]. FAIER [42] proposes to evaluate captions from the aspects of fidelity, adequacy and fluency, and measure the former two through cross-modal scene graph matching. + +In recent years, with the development of vision-language pre-training models, the cross-modal understanding ability has been significantly improved, and evaluation metrics based on pre-training models rather than training from scratch have been widely explored. UMIC [26] refines UNITER [6] through contrastive learning, in which the model is trained to distinguish and differentiate between the ground-truth captions and various synthetic negative samples. CLIP-Score [13] leverages the ability of CLIP [38] for aligning visual and textual information by converting all candidate, image, and references into CLIP features and then computing cosine similarity. PAC-S [39] is also a CLIP-based contrastive model, which can benefit from both web-collected and cleaned data sources. These metrics provide only an overall score, thus lacking in informativeness and interpretability. To address this weakness, InfoMetIC [15] utilizes CLIP features and conducts contrastive learning at both the coarse-grained and fine-grained levels, allowing it to report the matching results of local elements for each modality. However, focusing on the single-sentence caption task, it still lacks the capability to handle longer and more flexible image description tasks. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score based on structured HPGs for multidimensional evaluation, which is suitable for a wider range of image description scenarios. + +# 3 Method + +The overall evaluation pipeline of our HiFi-Score is shown in Fig. 4. The framework comprises three modules: hierarchical parsing graph generation (3.1), text-image grounding and matching (3.2), and multi-dimension scoring (3.3). + +![](images/4693c487090c3d40100cb6f19305a1db14fcd51f9e3c8b6d602e68a7dd602ee7.jpg) +Fig. 4: Framework of the proposed HiFi-Score. We first decompose both image and text into hierarchical parsing graphs (HPG), then ground the text phrases to corresponding image regions to get a fusion graph, and calculate their matching score. Finally, the fidelity and adequacy scores are calculated recursively from the bottom up. + +![](images/f5716cd55f1911bbc5330ee7a4ee0cc4bbbae403a8f1357d1bdbf61c2a556b91.jpg) + +# 3.1 Hierarchical parsing graph + +Definition. The Hierarchical Parsing Graph (HPG), represents both images and corresponding textual descriptions based on their fine-grained analysis, organizing global and local semantic regions or phrases into a hierarchical structure. An HPG is denoted as $\mathcal{G} = \{\mathcal{N},\mathcal{E}\}$ , where $\mathcal{N} = \{n_i\mid i = 1,2,\dots ,N\}$ represents the set of $N$ nodes, and $\mathcal{E}\subseteq \mathcal{N}\times \mathcal{R}\times \mathcal{N}$ is the set of edges. + +The root node $n_0$ represents the entire image (in the image HPG) or full text (in the text HPG), and other nodes represent local semantic components, that is, local regions or phrases, respectively. Each node $n_i = (o_i, A_i)$ is made of $o_i$ , an instance of local region or phrase, and $A_i = \{a_k\}$ represents the attributes attached to the instance such as color, shape, material, etc. The edges in $\mathcal{E}$ can be represented as a binary adjacent matrix $\mathbf{M} = \{m_{ij}\}$ . + +In the HPG, the relationship set $\mathcal{R}$ is divided into the subordinate relationship $\mathcal{R}_{sub} = \{r_{sub}\}$ and $k$ semantic relationships $\mathcal{R}_{sem} = \{r_i|i = 1,2,\dots,k\}$ . Subordination forms the main structure of the hierarchical layers, indicating that the child node is part of the parent node, such as "head - part of - dog", + +and semantic relationships can exist between any two nodes, like "person - ride - bike". Therefore, the matrix $\mathbf{M}$ is reduced by bitwise OR from a group of adjacent matrices, i.e. $\mathbf{M} = \bigvee_{r\in \mathcal{R}}\mathbf{M}^{(r)}$ , where $\mathbf{M}^{(r)}$ refers to the adjacent matrix of relationship $r$ . + +Compared to explicit linguistic expression, the attributes and relationships within the image are implicitly integrated into the instances. For simplicity, the image HPG does not contain attributes and semantic edges. Since a description may not fully capture image contents, the text HPG always contains fewer nodes and subordinate edges in contrast to the image HPG of the scenario. + +Image HPG generation. In order to obtain a detailed analysis for the entire image, and generate an image HPG $\mathcal{G}^I = \{\mathcal{N}^I,\mathcal{E}^I\}$ , we first utilize SAM [22] to segment images and generate masks for as many regions as possible. However, as SAM is a type of non-semantic segmentation, it may generate small fragmented masks or split complete semantic instances, affecting the integration of the main objects and background. Therefore, we further use Oneformer [16] as a panoptic segmentator to obtain masks for both objects and background. Combining the results of SAM and Oneformer, the content of the image is resolved into a comprehensive, multi-granularity region set $\mathcal{N}^I = \{o_i\}$ . Each region $o_i$ is a binary mask the same shape as the input image, and $|o_i|$ refers to the area of $o_i$ , equivalent to the count of 1 in the mask. + +To obtain the edges $\mathcal{E}^I$ , we organize all regions into an image HPG based on the inclusion relationship between them. We take the entire image as the root node $n_0$ , and then sort the segmentation masks by area size from the smallest to the largest, that is, $|o_1| \leq |o_2| \leq \dots \leq |o_N|$ . For mask $o_i$ , considering each region $o_j \in \{o_k | k > i\}$ larger than it, the subordinate edge is assigned by thresholding the overlap ratio between $o_j$ and $o_i$ as + +$$ +m _ {i j} ^ {I, \left(r _ {s u b}\right)} = \mathbb {1} \left(\frac {\left| o _ {i} \wedge o _ {j} \right|}{\left| o _ {i} \right|} \geq \tau\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\mathbb{1}$ refers to the indicator function, $\wedge$ refers to bitwise AND, and $\tau$ is a threshold hyperparameter. If $o_i$ is not contained in any other area, it directly becomes a child node of the root node, which means $m_{i,0}^{I,(r_{sub})} = 1$ . + +Text HPG Generation. Given an image description of arbitrary length, we use the LLM to parse objects, attributes corresponding to each object, and relationships between objects to phrases, and then convert them into an HPG $\mathcal{G}^T = \{\mathcal{N}^T,\mathcal{E}^T\}$ . Semantic relationships can be directly obtained by analyzing the textual context, whereas subordinate relationships denote the hierarchical structure between instances, which may not be expressed in the language and require additional inference. Typical subordinate relationships include "part of" and "member of". The former indicates that a part is a component of a whole, such as body parts and clothing, while the latter indicates that an object is part of a group of similar entities, such as "person" and "people". For more details, please refer to the supplementary material. + +# 3.2 Text-image grounding and matching + +Text-to-image grounding. A single image description can usually be considered as a subset of the image contents. Since the image HPG is a comprehensive and hierarchical representation of the image, all elements from the text HPG $\mathcal{G}^T$ should be able to be grounded to one or more regions in the image HPG $\mathcal{G}^I$ . + +First, we ground the elements in $\mathcal{G}^T$ to the input image. For each phrase $p_i$ in $\mathcal{G}^T$ (including all the objects $o^T$ , attributes $a^T$ , and relationships $r^T$ ) analyzed from the candidate description, all noun chunks are extracted as target entities $E_i = \{e_m \mid m = 1,2,\dots,M\}$ , where $M$ is the number of entities extracted from $p_i$ . Object and attribute phrases usually have only one target entity ( $M = 1$ ), while relationship phrases have multiple entities. Then we locate each $e_m$ in the image by GLIP [29] to obtain the probable bounding boxes $B_m = \{b_{mk} \mid k = 1,2,\dots,K\}$ , where $K$ refers to the number of the probable bounding boxes. The bounding boxes are input as a prompt into SAM [22] to obtain more accurate segmentation masks, and we sort them by the confidence score in descent order, as $S_m = \{s_{mk} \mid k = 1,2,\dots,K\}$ . Next, according to the masks $S_m$ , we ground the entity $e_m$ to the nodes $o_j$ on image HPG $\mathcal{G}^I$ . The grounded nodes for entity $e_m$ are obtained by + +$$ +\operatorname {g r o u n d i n g} \left(e _ {m}, \mathcal {G} ^ {I}\right) = \bigcup_ {k = 1} ^ {K ^ {\prime}} \underset {o _ {j} \in \mathcal {G} ^ {I}} {\operatorname {a r g m a x}} \operatorname {I o U} \left(s _ {m k}, o _ {j} ^ {I}\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $K'$ denotes the number of candidate nodes selected for $e_m$ , according to whether the entity is singular or plural. If the entity is singular, only the first segment with the highest confidence score is used ( $K' = 1$ ). Otherwise all the segments are considered ( $K' = K$ ). The matching results of phrase $p_i$ is finally obtained through aggregating the grounded segments of all entities, as follows: + +$$ +\operatorname {g r o u n d i n g} \left(p _ {i}, \mathcal {G} ^ {I}\right) = \bigcup_ {m = 1} ^ {M} \operatorname {g r o u n d i n g} \left(e _ {m}, \mathcal {G} ^ {I}\right). \tag {3} +$$ + +Through the above process, the objects $o^T$ , attributes $a^T$ , and relationships $r^T$ in the text HPG are matched with as many nodes as possible in the image HPG. Thus, the fusion graph $\mathcal{G}^F = \{\mathcal{N}^F, \mathcal{E}^F\}$ that integrates the image HPG $\mathcal{G}^I$ and text HPG $\mathcal{G}^T$ can be obtained. Nodes in the text HPG but not in the image HPG represent content that does not exist in the image, violating fidelity. Nodes in the image HPG but not in the text HPG represent areas not covered by the candidate descriptions, which are considered negative for adequacy. + +Text-image matching. Through grounding, we identify the matching and non-matching parts in the image and text HPGs. Then for the matching parts, we need to further calculate their matching degree. Current VLMs (CLIP [38], BLIP-2 [28], etc.) have learned a joint vision-language representation space through pre-training on large amount of image-text pairs, which enables them to effectively perform cross-modal matching between images and text. We use + +BLIP-2's ITC (image-text contrastive learning) and ITM (image-text matching) to calculate the matching score between the phrase and its corresponding region. To improve region-phrase local matching, we fine-tune BLIP-2 using dense caption annotations from Visual Genome. For phrase $p$ in $\mathcal{G}^T$ and the matching region $o$ in $\mathcal{G}^I$ , we use the Q-former with first-stage pretraining to extract features and calculate similarity scores, and the final local matching score $S(o,p)$ is the weighted sum of ITC and ITM scores. $\delta$ denotes the weight. + +$$ +S (o, p) = \delta \cdot \operatorname {I T C} (o, p) + (1 - \delta) \cdot \operatorname {I T M} (o, p) \tag {4} +$$ + +# 3.3 Multidimensional Scoring + +Based on the fusion parsing graph and the local similarity of the matched parts, we evaluate the candidate description from two aspects, fidelity and adequacy. + +Fidelity is calculated based on the matched parts and the text HPG, indicating the extent to which the text description conforms to the image. For each node $p \in \mathcal{G}^T$ with its matching score $s_p$ , its fidelity score is a combination of its own score and the average score of its child nodes $C(t)$ . The child nodes of $p$ include not only the subordinate sub-nodes belonging to it, but also the attribute nodes attached to it and the relationship edges with it as the subject. The fidelity score for the entire description is recursively calculated from the bottom up, starting from the local matching score $s_p$ of leaf nodes, until it reaches the root node. + +$$ +S _ {F} (p) = \alpha \cdot s _ {p} + \frac {1 - \alpha}{| C (p) |} \sum_ {c \in C (p)} s _ {c}, S _ {F} (I, T) = S _ {F} (\text {r o o t}) \tag {5} +$$ + +in which the hyperparameter $\alpha$ is used to adjust the weights of the node itself and its child nodes. The overall fidelity score of the entire image and the candidate description $S_F(I,T)$ is the root score $S_F$ (root). + +Adequacy is calculated based on the matched parts and the image HPG $\mathcal{G}^I$ , combined with human attention, indicating how much of the content in the image is covered by the text description. Similar to fidelity, adequacy is also obtained through a bottom-up recursive calculation along the tree structure based on each node $o \in \mathcal{G}^I$ . By introducing human attention, we can further determine the importance of different regions in the image HPG, which are then incorporated as weights $\omega_o$ into the adequacy calculation. + +$$ +S _ {A} (o) = \omega_ {o} \left(\alpha \cdot s _ {o} + \frac {1 - \alpha}{| C (o) |} \sum_ {c \in C (o)} s _ {c}\right), S _ {A} (I, T) = S _ {A} (\text {r o o t}) \tag {6} +$$ + +The overall adequacy score of the entire image and the candidate description $S_A(I,T)$ is the root score $S_A$ (root). + +There are various ways to obtain human attention depending on the tasks. For general image captioning and image paragraphing, we introduce a saliency map as the human attention map. If there are human-written references, the areas mentioned by more references should have higher weights. For tasks that + +require the description for specific areas, such as dense captioning and object-controllable captioning, the weight of the designated areas can be set to 1, while the weights of other regions are set to 0. + +Finally, by simply adding the fidelity score and the adequacy score, the total score for the candidate description is + +$$ +S (I, T) = \gamma \cdot S _ {F} (I, T) + (1 - \gamma) \cdot S _ {A} (I, T), \tag {7} +$$ + +in which $\gamma$ denotes the weight of fidelity score and adequacy score. + +Fluency Evaluation. The evaluation of fluency presents ongoing challenges in natural language processing and linguistics, with inherent subjectivity and complex evaluation criteria. Compared with fidelity and adequacy that rely on image-text matching, fluency is purely linguistic unrelated to the image, making it to some extent orthogonal to the other two. We empirically decouple fluency into three dimensions: grammatical correctness, clarity of expression, and logical rationality. We utilize GPT-3.5 to render binary assessments across the mentioned criteria, and provide specific reasons. More details (including prompts) can be found in the supplementary material. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Implementation details + +To obtain image HPGs, we use the $\text{vit\_h}$ model of SAM [22] to generate nonsemantic masks and conduct panoptic segmentation by OneFormer [16] with the backbone of DiNAT-L. The gpt-3.5-turbo-1106 API is utilized for text HPGs and fluency evaluation based on prompts. We use GLIP-L [29] to grounding each text phrase to corresponding image region. We use the provided first-stage-pretrained BLIP-2 [28] model for global image-text matching and fine-tune with dense captioning annotations of Visual Genome [24] for local matching. The hyperparameters $\alpha$ , $\delta$ and $\gamma$ in score calculation are set to 0.5. The default human attention weights are obtained by the PyTorch implementation of saliency detection method [44]. Please refer to our project page1 for more details. + +# 4.2 Caption-level judgement + +Datasets. We conduct quantitative experiments on four caption-level benchmarks (Flickr8k-Expert [14], Composite Dataset [1], THumB1.0 [20], and Pascal50S dataset [41]) to compare our metric with the state-of-the-art metrics. Following previous works, Kendall's $\tau$ correlation on both Flickr8k-Expert and Composite Dataset, Pearson's $\rho$ correlation on THumB1.0 and classification accuracy on Pascal-50S are used to measure the consistency between these metrics and human evaluations, respectively. More details about the datasets can be found in the supplementary material. + +Table 1: Caption-level comparison on Flickr8k-Expert(F-Ex), Composite(Com), THumB1.0 and Pascal-50S.

+ +$\dagger$ indicates the result is cited directly from their original paper. + +Comparison with SOTA. Table 1 presents the results for caption-level judgement compared with the state-of-the-art metrics both with and without references. BLIPScore (originally used for evaluating text-to-image generation in [32]) utilizes BLIP-2 as the base image-text model, which can be considered a global matching baseline. Similar to CLIPScore, BLIPScore calculates the cosine similarity between image and text feature. HiFi-Score is our reference-free model, utilizing the saliency detection [44] output as human attention weights for calculating adequacy score by default, while HiFi-Scoreref assigns weights based on the frequency of regions mentioned in human references. + +As in Table 1, our HiFi-Score outperforms SOTA metrics on Flickr8k-Expert [14], Composite [1] and THumB1.0 [20] and gains comparable performance on Pascal-50S [41]. Compared to BLIPScore with the same base model, the performance improvement of HiFi-Score on most datasets indicates that incorporating fine-grained analysis can enhance consistency with human evaluation. The improvement on THumB1.0 is slight, possibly because model-generated captions in this dataset are shorter and less detailed, limiting HiFi-Score's capability. Compared to InfoMetIC, a fine-grained metric that matches object regions with words, HiFi-Score's superior performance highlights the effectiveness of structured modeling of local details within both images and texts. + +For Pascal-50S, UMIC and InfoMetIC outperform other metrics, mainly due to their contrastive learning to differentiate positive and carefully-designed negative captions, which aligns well with Pascal-50S's test setting of choosing the + +better caption from a pair. Without targeted training, HiFi-Score's good performance verifies its generalization. + +Table 2: Ablation study of modules and settings.

+ +Ablation Study. Here we conduct ablation experiments to validate the effectiveness of modules and settings. As shown in Table 2, the full model finetuned on Visual Genome (last row) yields the overall best performance among the variant models. Compared to the model without fine-tuning (first row), the performance improvement demonstrates that fine-tuning is beneficial for enhancing the model's local matching capability. When comparing fidelity and adequacy, fidelity's performance is a bit higher than adequacy's, as correctness (mainly reflected in fidelity) is the most fundamental criterion for image descriptions. The best outcomes are achieved when both are combined. As for ITC and ITM, it is observed that Flickr8k-Exp and Pascal-50S prefer ITC, whereas Composite and THumB1.0 prefer ITM. This difference likely arises because ITC excels in global alignment between modals, while ITM has stronger ability to discern fine-grained differences. The combination of ITC and ITM can bring performance gain by taking the advantages of both. More experimental analyses (trade-off of weights, impact of human attention, etc.) are in the supplementary materials. + +# 4.3 Paragraph-level judgement + +ParaEval Dataset Construction. Unlike image captioning evaluation, the evaluation for image paragraphing remains underdeveloped and lacks benchmarks to measure the rationality of existing metrics. Therefore, we constructed the ParaEval dataset to assess the accuracy of existing metrics in evaluating long-context image descriptions. ParaEval collects 4,000 pairs of image and its + +paragraph description from the ImageParagraphs Dataset [23] and Localized Narratives Dataset [37]. We design four types of negative samples: plausible descriptions, negative objects, negative attributes, and negative relationships as displayed in Table 3, and ask metrics to distinguish between groundtruth and wrong descriptions. More details can be found in the supplementary material. + +Comparison with Other Metrics. We compare HiFi-Score with CLIPScore and BLIPScore, which can to some extent accommodate the growth of text length. The maximum input text length of CLIP is 77 tokens, less than most paragraphs, so we designed CLIPScoretrunc that directly truncates the part that exceeds the limit and CLIPScoreavg that calculates the similarity between each sentence in the paragraph and the image and then takes the average value as the total score. As shown in Table 4, the classification accuracy of HiFi-Score surpasses that of other methods across all four types of negatives, proving that fine-grained matching enhances the ability to identify detailed errors. For all metrics, distinguishing plausible descriptions is easiest because of the sufficient details in long texts. Among the other three, performance of distinguishing incorrect objects is best, and the worst is relationships, proving that understanding relationships between objects is still a key weakness of learning-based methods. + +Table 3: Example of the ParaEval dataset. Four different negative samples are constructed for one groundtruth paragraph. + +

+ +Visualization. The evaluation process of HiFi-Score is visualized in Fig. 5, which demonstrates the flexibility and interpretability, and Fig. 6, which shows the evaluation of multiple captions and paragraphs generated by vision-language models KOSMOS-2 [36] and InstructBLIP [9], respectively. The error localization ability of HiFi-Score in long text evaluations is beneficial for model diagnostics. + +Limitations. As a learning-based metric, the limitations of HiFi-Score mainly stem from the pre-trained modules, including the out-of-distribution (OOD) problem, fairness that originates from training data bias, and domain generalization for specific fields. These may lead to mismatching and inaccurate scoring. Nevertheless, it is believed such issues will be improved with the development of visual, language, and multi-modal models.

+ +# 5 Conclusion + +In conclusion, we propose a novel image description evaluation metric, HiFi-Score, which provides fine-grained multi-dimensional evaluation based on hierarchical parsing graphs. Specifically, we model both images and texts as HPGs, analyzing all semantic instances from global to local and incorporating attributes and semantic relationships. Then, the scores of fidelity and adequacy are calculated gradually from the bottom up. We further evaluate the fluency of language expression taking the advantage of the LLMs. Experimental results on caption-level datasets demonstrate HiFi-Score's higher human consistency. Moreover, we construct paragraph-level dataset ParaEval to evaluate current metrics with long-context descriptions, and validate the superiority of HiFi-Score. Extensive evaluations demonstrate the potential of HiFi-Score for evaluating VLMs' generative capabilities and the diverse image description tasks. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work is partially supported by Natural Science Foundation of China under contract No. U21B2025, and National Key R&D Program of China No. 2021ZD0111901, 2023YFF1105104. + +# References + +1.

With the advancements of vision-language models, the growing demand for generating customized image descriptions under length, target regions, and other various control conditions brings new challenges for evaluation. Most existing metrics, designed primarily for single-sentence image captioning with an overall matching score, struggle to accommodate complex description requirements, resulting in insufficient accuracy and interpretability of evaluation. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score, a hierarchical parsing graph-based fine-grained evaluation metric. Specifically, we model both text and images as parsing graphs, which organize multi-granular instances into a hierarchical structure according to their inclusion relationships, which provides a comprehensive scene analysis for both modalities from global to local. Based on the fine-grained matching between the graphs, we can evaluate the fidelity to ensure text contents are related to image and the adequacy to ensure the image is covered by text at multiple levels. Furthermore, we employ the large language model to evaluate fluency of the language expression. Human correlation experiments on four caption-level benchmarks show that the proposed metric outperforms existing metrics. At the paragraph-level, we construct a novel dataset ParaEval and demonstrate the accuracy of the HiFi-Score in evaluating long texts. We further show its superiority in assessing vision-language models and its flexibility when applied to various image description tasks." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Image Description Evaluation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Hierarchical Parsing Graph " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 514, + 453, + 536 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Vision-language Model" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 557, + 230, + 569 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 582, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 582, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 582, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "The evaluation of image description generation has always been an important and challenging topic.

This implies that every element in the text HPG should have correspondence in the image HPG. Adequacy demands the text to capture the image gist and provide a comprehensive description within a constrained length, which can be seen as the recall of image content. The image HPG should be covered by the text HPG as much as possible, especially the areas considered important by humans. Fluency considers the language itself, indicating that the text is grammatically correct and linguistically smooth. We evaluate it through a prompt-based method employing the LLM. As depicted on the right side of Fig. 2, in practice, we convert the image and text HPGs into regions and phrases, respectively.

VIFIDEL [33] focuses on fidelity in image captioning, using weighted object labels from images and comparing them to captions via word mover's distance [25]. FAIER [42] proposes to evaluate captions from the aspects of fidelity, adequacy and fluency, and measure the former two through cross-modal scene graph matching." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 450, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In recent years, with the development of vision-language pre-training models, the cross-modal understanding ability has been significantly improved, and evaluation metrics based on pre-training models rather than training from scratch have been widely explored. UMIC [26] refines UNITER [6] through contrastive learning, in which the model is trained to distinguish and differentiate between the ground-truth captions and various synthetic negative samples. CLIP-Score [13] leverages the ability of CLIP [38] for aligning visual and textual information by converting all candidate, image, and references into CLIP features and then computing cosine similarity. PAC-S [39] is also a CLIP-based contrastive model, which can benefit from both web-collected and cleaned data sources. These metrics provide only an overall score, thus lacking in informativeness and interpretability. To address this weakness, InfoMetIC [15] utilizes CLIP features and conducts contrastive learning at both the coarse-grained and fine-grained levels, allowing it to report the matching results of local elements for each modality. However, focusing on the single-sentence caption task, it still lacks the capability to handle longer and more flexible image description tasks. Therefore, we propose HiFi-Score based on structured HPGs for multidimensional evaluation, which is suitable for a wider range of image description scenarios." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 91, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 91, + 447, + 102 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 91, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "HiFi-Score: Fine-grained Image Description Evaluation" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "5" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 1 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 202, + 127 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 202, + 127 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 114, + 202, + 127 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "3 Method" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 140, + 480, + 178 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 140, + 480, + 178 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 140, + 480, + 178 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "The overall evaluation pipeline of our HiFi-Score is shown in Fig. 4.

Here we conduct ablation experiments to validate the effectiveness of modules and settings. As shown in Table 2, the full model finetuned on Visual Genome (last row) yields the overall best performance among the variant models. Compared to the model without fine-tuning (first row), the performance improvement demonstrates that fine-tuning is beneficial for enhancing the model's local matching capability. When comparing fidelity and adequacy, fidelity's performance is a bit higher than adequacy's, as correctness (mainly reflected in fidelity) is the most fundamental criterion for image descriptions. The best outcomes are achieved when both are combined. As for ITC and ITM, it is observed that Flickr8k-Exp and Pascal-50S prefer ITC, whereas Composite and THumB1.0 prefer ITM. This difference likely arises because ITC excels in global alignment between modals, while ITM has stronger ability to discern fine-grained differences.

Since our framework is open, new superior models can be easily plugged in, further enhancing the evaluation." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 9 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 223, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "HiFi-Score: Fine-grained Image Description Evaluation" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 470, + 91, + 481, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 470, + 91, + 481, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 470, + 91, + 481, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "13" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 1 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 12 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 156, + 118, + 217, + 198 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 156, + 118, + 217, + 198 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 156, + 118, + 217, + 198 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 156, + 118, + 217, + 198 + ], + "type": "image", + "image_path": "e30abeda618b84e196ebe89117b6bbb07cadc943bd689fb46c96f638c7d19bd2.jpg" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_body" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 181, + 203, + 217, + 219 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 181, + 203, + 217, + 219 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 181, + 203, + 217, + 219 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "fine-grained analysis" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_caption" + } + ], + "index": 2 + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 162, + 199, + 179, + 221 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 162, + 199, + 179, + 221 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 162, + 199, + 179, + 221 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 162, + 199, + 179, + 221 + ], + "type": "image", + "image_path": "1f9c72b7b4e5b7b8479cf0ac41b8ea1715a584131053fb07296a39a762262c99.jpg" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_body" + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 136, + 224, + 235, + 301 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 136, + 224, + 235, + 301 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 136, + 224, + 235, + 301 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 136, + 224, + 235, + 301 + ], + "type": "image", + "image_path": "5586c113a1493480e658970b75352bd8e854800a095edc6c7dde342178bc8744.jpg" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_body" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 144, + 313, + 467, + 325 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 144, + 313, + 467, + 325 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 144, + 313, + 467, + 325 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Fig. 5: Visualization of HiFi-Score evaluating different image description tasks." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 18, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_caption" + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 242, + 121, + 311, + 137 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 242, + 121, + 311, + 137 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 242, + 121, + 311, + 137 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Candidate Caption: a woman sitting at a picnic" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "type": "table", + "bbox": [ + 244, + 141, + 363, + 167 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 244, + 141, + 363, + 167 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 244, + 141, + 363, + 167 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 244, + 141, + 363, + 167 + ], + "type": "table", + "html": "

Specifically, we model both images and texts as HPGs, analyzing all semantic instances from global to local and incorporating attributes and semantic relationships. Then, the scores of fidelity and adequacy are calculated gradually from the bottom up. We further evaluate the fluency of language expression taking the advantage of the LLMs. Experimental results on caption-level datasets demonstrate HiFi-Score's higher human consistency.

Transformers have exhibited promising performance in computer vision tasks including image super-resolution (SR). However, popular transformer-based SR methods often employ window self-attention with quadratic computational complexity to window sizes, resulting in fixed small windows with limited receptive fields. In this paper, we present a general strategy to convert transformer-based SR networks to hierarchical transformers (HiT-SR), boosting SR performance with multi-scale features while maintaining an efficient design. Specifically, we first replace the commonly used fixed small windows with expanding hierarchical windows to aggregate features at different scales and establish long-range dependencies. Considering the intensive computation required for large windows, we further design a spatial-channel correlation method with linear complexity to window sizes, efficiently gathering spatial and channel information from hierarchical windows. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and efficiency of our HiT-SR, and our improved versions of SwinIR-Light, SwinIR-NG, and SRFormer-Light yield state-of-the-art SR results with fewer parameters, FLOPs, and faster speeds $(\\sim 7\\times)$ .", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 330, + 743, + 566 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Keywords: Super-Resolution $\\cdot$ Transformer $\\cdot$ Hierarchical Windows", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 579, + 723, + 595 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 618, + 375, + 633 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Image super-resolution (SR) is a classical low-level vision task that aims to convert a low-resolution (LR) image to its high-resolution (HR) counterpart with better visual details.

An essential component in popular transformer-based SR methods is the window self-attention (W-SA) [10, 26, 29, 30]. By bringing locality into self-attention, the W-SA mechanism not only better utilizes spatial information from input images but also mitigates the computational burden when processing high-resolution images [26, 30]. However, current transformer-based SR methods often employ W-SA with fixed small window sizes, e.g., $8 \\times 8$ in SwinIR [26], limiting the receptive field to a single scale and preventing the network from gathering multi-scale information such as local textures and repetitive patterns [22, 23, 25, 27]. In addition, the quadratic computational complexity of W-SA to the window size also makes the expansion of receptive fields unaffordable in practice. To mitigate the computational overhead, previous attempts often reduce channels to support large windows, e.g., channel splitting of group-wise multi-scale self-attention (GMSA) in ELAN [50] and channel compression of permuted self-attention block (PSA) in SRFormer [55]. However, these methods not only suffer from the trade-off between spatial and channel information but also remain quadratic complexity to window sizes, limiting the window scaling (max $16 \\times 16$ in ELAN [50] and $24 \\times 24$ in SRFormer [55] vs. $64 \\times 64$ and larger in ours).

The results in Tab. 2 show the remarkable performance of our HiT-SR methods on all benchmark datasets. Compared with the previous state-of-the-art approach SRFormer-Light, our HiT-SIR achieves comparable results with fewer parameters and FLOPs, and our HiT-SRF sets new state-of-the-art SR results across all upscaling factors. Furthermore, our HiT-SR improved methods show advantages over their original models in three main aspects: performance, efficiency, and convergence. (i) As illustrated in Tab. 3, our HiT-SR method contributes to significant improvements for SR performance, e.g., $0.26 / 0.23 / 0.22$ dB PSNR gains for HiT-SIR/HiT-SNG/HiT-SRF on Urban100 $(\\times 2)$ dataset. (ii) By replacing the computationally inefficient shifted window self-attention with our SCC, all HiT-SR models require fewer computational resources and significantly boost inference speeds, achieving $\\sim 7\\times$ speed-up. Although the parameters and FLOPs improvements of HiT-SRF over SRFormer-Light are relatively smaller as SRFormer also improves the efficiency of transformer layers via permuted self-attention [55], our HiT-SRF still shows better SR performance with $7.8\\times$ faster inference speed, benefiting practical usage.

Transformers have exhibited promising performance in computer vision tasks including image super-resolution (SR). However, popular transformer-based SR methods often employ window self-attention with quadratic computational complexity to window sizes, resulting in fixed small windows with limited receptive fields. In this paper, we present a general strategy to convert transformer-based SR networks to hierarchical transformers (HiT-SR), boosting SR performance with multi-scale features while maintaining an efficient design. Specifically, we first replace the commonly used fixed small windows with expanding hierarchical windows to aggregate features at different scales and establish long-range dependencies. Considering the intensive computation required for large windows, we further design a spatial-channel correlation method with linear complexity to window sizes, efficiently gathering spatial and channel information from hierarchical windows. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and efficiency of our HiT-SR, and our improved versions of SwinIR-Light, SwinIR-NG, and SRFormer-Light yield state-of-the-art SR results with fewer parameters, FLOPs, and faster speeds \\((\\sim 7\\times)\\)." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.262, + 0.58, + 0.724, + 0.596 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: Super-Resolution \\(\\cdot\\) Transformer \\(\\cdot\\) Hierarchical Windows" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.619, + 0.377, + 0.635 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.65, + 0.788, + 0.786 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Image super-resolution (SR) is a classical low-level vision task that aims to convert a low-resolution (LR) image to its high-resolution (HR) counterpart with better visual details.

An essential component in popular transformer-based SR methods is the window self-attention (W-SA) [10, 26, 29, 30]. By bringing locality into self-attention, the W-SA mechanism not only better utilizes spatial information from input images but also mitigates the computational burden when processing high-resolution images [26, 30]. However, current transformer-based SR methods often employ W-SA with fixed small window sizes, e.g., \\(8 \\times 8\\) in SwinIR [26], limiting the receptive field to a single scale and preventing the network from gathering multi-scale information such as local textures and repetitive patterns [22, 23, 25, 27]. In addition, the quadratic computational complexity of W-SA to the window size also makes the expansion of receptive fields unaffordable in practice. To mitigate the computational overhead, previous attempts often reduce channels to support large windows, e.g., channel splitting of group-wise multi-scale self-attention (GMSA) in ELAN [50] and channel compression of permuted self-attention block (PSA) in SRFormer [55]. However, these methods not only suffer from the trade-off between spatial and channel information but also remain quadratic complexity to window sizes, limiting the window scaling (max \\(16 \\times 16\\) in ELAN [50] and \\(24 \\times 24\\) in SRFormer [55] vs. \\(64 \\times 64\\) and larger in ours).

The results in Tab. 2 show the remarkable performance of our HiT-SR methods on all benchmark datasets. Compared with the previous state-of-the-art approach SRFormer-Light, our HiT-SIR achieves comparable results with fewer parameters and FLOPs, and our HiT-SRF sets new state-of-the-art SR results across all upscaling factors. Furthermore, our HiT-SR improved methods show advantages over their original models in three main aspects: performance, efficiency, and convergence. (i) As illustrated in Tab. 3, our HiT-SR method contributes to significant improvements for SR performance, e.g., \\(0.26 / 0.23 / 0.22\\) dB PSNR gains for HiT-SIR/HiT-SNG/HiT-SRF on Urban100 \\((\\times 2)\\) dataset. (ii) By replacing the computationally inefficient shifted window self-attention with our SCC, all HiT-SR models require fewer computational resources and significantly boost inference speeds, achieving \\(\\sim 7\\times\\) speed-up. Although the parameters and FLOPs improvements of HiT-SRF over SRFormer-Light are relatively smaller as SRFormer also improves the efficiency of transformer layers via permuted self-attention [55], our HiT-SRF still shows better SR performance with \\(7.8\\times\\) faster inference speed, benefiting practical usage.

Transformers have exhibited promising performance in computer vision tasks including image super-resolution (SR). However, popular transformer-based SR methods often employ window self-attention with quadratic computational complexity to window sizes, resulting in fixed small windows with limited receptive fields. In this paper, we present a general strategy to convert transformer-based SR networks to hierarchical transformers (HiT-SR), boosting SR performance with multi-scale features while maintaining an efficient design. Specifically, we first replace the commonly used fixed small windows with expanding hierarchical windows to aggregate features at different scales and establish long-range dependencies. Considering the intensive computation required for large windows, we further design a spatial-channel correlation method with linear complexity to window sizes, efficiently gathering spatial and channel information from hierarchical windows. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and efficiency of our HiT-SR, and our improved versions of SwinIR-Light, SwinIR-NG, and SRFormer-Light yield state-of-the-art SR results with fewer parameters, FLOPs, and faster speeds $(\sim 7\times)$ . + +Keywords: Super-Resolution $\cdot$ Transformer $\cdot$ Hierarchical Windows + +# 1 Introduction + +Image super-resolution (SR) is a classical low-level vision task that aims to convert a low-resolution (LR) image to its high-resolution (HR) counterpart with better visual details. How to tackle the ill-posed SR problem has attracted considerable interest for decades [13, 17, 18, 20, 46, 47]. Many popular approaches employ convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to learn the projection between LR inputs and HR images [11, 13, 34, 35, 51, 52]. Despite significant progress being achieved, CNN-based methods usually focus on utilizing local features via convolution and often fall short in aggregating long-range information across the image, limiting the performance of CNN-based SR. + +The recent development of vision transformers provides a promising solution for establishing long-range dependencies [8, 12, 14, 30, 42], benefiting many + +![](images/6f6e50765d938aa17fc0268688fb080c6712217f42ec9f4b25446b557152df16.jpg) + +![](images/e419c0d829759f635fccdf2905fd20a97ccfea408974cefa0df50494c612351c.jpg) + +![](images/87b679267584261e0542cb66d0092ea903f6e65de064014d6a826b64861b1ac2.jpg) + +![](images/0095f52b0cf5a1d36fe9afc620f361136ac74e7ee6a5fede6a093ced895e49ce.jpg) +(b) Complexity comparisons + +![](images/8609140d5578e6faf436eebbb8e9f659c4bde2d0247ce201244d2aacc67198fc.jpg) +Fig. 1: Comparisons of the popular efficient SR transformers, i.e., SwinIR-Light (SIR) [26], SwinIR-NG (SNG) [10], and SRFormer-Light (SRF) [55], and the corresponding HiT-SR versions, i.e., HiT-SIR, HiT-SNG, and HiT-SRF. The complexity metrics are calculated under $\times 2$ upscaling on an A100 GPU, with the output size set to $720 \times 1280$ . + +computer vision tasks including image SR [9, 10, 16, 26, 50]. An essential component in popular transformer-based SR methods is the window self-attention (W-SA) [10, 26, 29, 30]. By bringing locality into self-attention, the W-SA mechanism not only better utilizes spatial information from input images but also mitigates the computational burden when processing high-resolution images [26, 30]. However, current transformer-based SR methods often employ W-SA with fixed small window sizes, e.g., $8 \times 8$ in SwinIR [26], limiting the receptive field to a single scale and preventing the network from gathering multi-scale information such as local textures and repetitive patterns [22, 23, 25, 27]. In addition, the quadratic computational complexity of W-SA to the window size also makes the expansion of receptive fields unaffordable in practice. To mitigate the computational overhead, previous attempts often reduce channels to support large windows, e.g., channel splitting of group-wise multi-scale self-attention (GMSA) in ELAN [50] and channel compression of permuted self-attention block (PSA) in SRFormer [55]. However, these methods not only suffer from the trade-off between spatial and channel information but also remain quadratic complexity to window sizes, limiting the window scaling (max $16 \times 16$ in ELAN [50] and $24 \times 24$ in SRFormer [55] vs. $64 \times 64$ and larger in ours). Therefore, how to effectively aggregate multi-scale features while maintaining computational efficiency remains a critical problem for transformer-based SR approaches. + +To this end, we develop a general strategy to convert popular transformer-based SR networks to hierarchical transformers for efficient image SR (HiT-SR). Motivated by the success of multi-scale feature aggregation in SR [22, 23, 25, 50], we first propose to replace the fixed small windows with expanding hierarchical windows in transformer layers, enabling HiT-SR to leverage informative multiscale features with gradually enlarging receptive fields. To cope with the increasing computational burdens of W-SA in handling large windows, we further + +design a spatial-channel correlation (SCC) method for efficient aggregation of hierarchical features. Specifically, our SCC consists of a dual feature extraction (DFE) layer to improve feature projection by combining spatial and channel information, a spatial and channel self-correlation (S-SC and C-SC) approach to efficiently exploit hierarchical features with linear computational complexity to window sizes, better supporting window scaling. In addition, unlike the conventional W-SA that employs hardware inefficient softmax layers [5] and time-consuming window shifting operations, our SCC directly uses feature correlation matrices for transformation and hierarchical windows for receptive field expansion, boosting computational efficiency while preserving functionality. + +Overall, our main contributions are three-fold: + +- We propose a simple yet effective strategy, i.e., HiT-SR, to convert popular transformer-based SR methods to our hierarchical transformers, boosting SR performance by exploiting multi-scale features and long-range dependencies. +- We design a spatial-channel correlation method to efficiently leverage spatial and channel features with linear computational complexity to window sizes, enabling utilization of large hierarchical windows, e.g., $64 \times 64$ windows. +- We convert SwinIR-Light [26], SwinIR-NG [10] and SRFormer-Light [55] to HiT-SR versions, i.e., HiT-SIR, HiT-SNG, and HiT-SRF, achieving better performance with fewer parameters, FLOPs, and $\sim 7\times$ speed-up (Fig. 1). + +# 2 Related Work + +Efficient SR. Several CNN-based methods are proposed to approach SR in an efficient way. Previous works first explore compact building blocks for SR networks [2,15,27]. Meanwhile, information distillation methods are developed to progressively refine image features for better performance [22,28], and LatticeNet designs an economical SR structure based on the lattice filter bank [31]. Recent methods further improve the efficiency of image SR by utilizing network pruning techniques [41,53]. However, most CNN-based SR approaches focus on exploiting local features and struggle to utilize long-range dependencies in image SR. + +Transformer-based SR. The self-attention (SA) mechanism has been widely employed to establish long-range dependencies in both high-level [6, 14, 29, 30, 37, 38, 54] and low-level vision tasks [7, 26, 44, 48]. For the SR task, SwinIR [26] designs a general image restoration framework based on the shifted window self-attention (SW-SA) [30], and several techniques have been developed to utilize a wider range of features, including N-Gram [10], omni self-attention (OSA) [40], and permuted self-attention (PSA) [55]. Although many advances have been made, most existing works neglect the importance of hierarchical features in SR due to the intensive computation required by W-SA on large windows. + +Hierarchical Feature. Hierarchical features have been proven effective in boosting SR performance [22,23,25,27,50], but it is generally challenging for transformer-based SR methods to utilize hierarchical features due to the quadratic complexity of W-SA to window sizes. Recent method ELAN designs a group-wise multiscale SA (GMSA) technique to gather features at different scales [50]. However, + +![](images/cc9cd34904db09a8d4a6ca58e336d8f3dd45f14c25188d6fb9fe9cfdea9cafe2.jpg) +Fig. 2: Typical framework for transformer-based SR methods, where the block-level and layer-level improvements made by our HiT-SR are colored red. SA, FFN, and LN indicate self-attention, feed-forward network, and layer normalization, respectively. + +GMSA remains quadratic complexity and suffers from information trade-off due to channel splitting. In our approach, a spatial-channel correlation (SCC) method is designed to efficiently utilize hierarchical features with linear complexity to window sizes, while preserving spatial and channel information. + +# 3 Method + +We first introduce the basic methodology of HiT-SR in Sec. 3.1 and then present the block-level and layer-level designs in HiT-SR in Sec. 3.2 and 3.3, respectively. + +# 3.1 Hierarchical Transformer + +We first review the commonly adopted pipeline of transformer-based SR methods [10, 26, 55]. As depicted in Fig. 2, popular transformer-based SR framework often consists of convolutional layers to extract shallow features $F_{S} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times H \times W}$ from LR input images $I_{LR} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times H \times W}$ , a feature extraction module to aggregate deep image features $F_{D} \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times H \times W}$ via transformer blocks (TBs), and a reconstruction module to restore HR images $I_{HR} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times sH \times sW}$ ( $s$ denotes upscaling factor) from shallow and deep features. In the feature extraction module, TBs are generally built with cascaded transformer layers (TLs) followed by convolutional layers, where each TL consists of self-attention (SA), feed-forward network (FFN), and layer normalization (LN). Since the computational complexity of SA is quadratic to input sizes [14], window partition is often employed in TL to limit SA on local regions, which is known as window self-attention (W-SA) [26, 30]. Although W-SA alleviates the computational burden, its receptive field is restricted to small local regions, hindering SR networks from utilizing long-range dependencies and multi-scale information. + +To efficiently aggregate hierarchical features, we propose a general strategy to convert the above SR framework to hierarchical transformers. As shown in Fig. 2, our approach mainly contains improvements in two aspects: (i) Instead of using + +![](images/e9e48e92ed63f611eb4265e1f604651eae5b207d7c3b5eebf1c043e48cd72835.jpg) +Fig. 4: Layer-Level design in HiT-SR composed of dual feature extraction (DFE), spatial and channel self-correlation (S-SC and C-SC).

S-SC and C-SC are proposed to efficiently aggregate hierarchical information with linear computational complexity to window sizes. + +fixed small window sizes for all TLs, we apply hierarchical windows to different TLs in the block level, enabling HiT-SR to establish long-range dependency and gather multi-scale information; (ii) To overcome the computational burden caused by large windows, we replace the W-SA in TLs with a novel spatial-channel correlation (SCC) method, which better supports window scaling with linear computational complexity to window sizes. Based on the above strategies, HiT-SR not only gains better performance by exploiting hierarchical features but also maintains computational efficiency thanks to SCC. + +# 3.2 Block-Level Design: Hierarchical Windows + +At the block level, we assign hierarchical windows to different TLs, collecting multi-scale features. Given a base window size $h_B \times w_B$ , we set the window size $h_i \times w_i$ for the $i$ -th TL to + +$$ +h _ {i} = \alpha_ {i} h _ {B}, \quad w _ {i} = \alpha_ {i} w _ {B}, \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\alpha_{i} > 0$ is the hierarchical ratio for the $i$ -th TL. + +Expanding Windows. To better aggregate hierarchical features, we arrange the windows with an expanding strategy. As illustrated in Fig. 3, we first use small window sizes in the initial layers to gather the most relevant features from local regions, and + +![](images/25e4515216c1375348156d0e76e23376160115283b8930f8ea0e5e30dfce8237.jpg) +Fig.3: Block-Level design in HiT-SR. Hierarchical windows are applied to different transformer layers (TLs) to aggregate features with expanding receptive fields. + +then gradually expand the window size to utilize the information gained from long-range dependencies. Previous approaches often apply shifting and masking operations on fixed small windows [9, 10, 26, 55] to enlarge receptive fields, but these operations are time-consuming and inefficient in practice. Compared with them, our approach directly utilizes the cascaded TLs to form a hierarchical feature extractor, enabling small to large receptive fields while maintaining overall efficiency. Fig. 1 shows the better performance of our HiT-SR methods with $\sim 7\times$ faster speeds over the original models. + +# 3.3 Layer-Level Design: Spatial-Channel Correlation + +At the layer level, we propose spatial-channel correlation (SCC) to efficiently leverage spatial and temporal information from hierarchical inputs. As depicted in Fig. 4, our SCC mainly consists of dual feature extraction (DFE), spatial self-correlation (S-SC), and channel self-correlation (C-SC). Besides, unlike commonly adopted multi-head strategies [9,26,39], different correlation head strategies are applied to S-SC and C-SC to better utilize image features. + +Dual Feature Extraction. Linear layers are often employed for feature projection, which only extracts channel information and neglects to model spatial relations. Instead, we propose DFE with a two-branch design to utilize features from two domains. As shown in Fig. 4, DFE consists of a convolutional branch to exploit spatial information and a linear branch to extract channel features. + +Given an input feature $X \in \mathbb{R}^{C \times H \times W}$ , the output of DFE is computed as + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \operatorname {D F E} (X) = X _ {c h} \odot X _ {s p}, \quad \text {w i t h} \\ X _ {c h} = \operatorname {L i n e a r} (X), X _ {s p} = \operatorname {C o n v} (X), \tag {2} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\odot$ denotes element-wise multiplication. The reshaped channel feature $X_{ch} \in \mathbb{R}^{HW \times C}$ and spatial feature $X_{sp} \in \mathbb{R}^{HW \times C}$ are captured by linear and convolutional layers, respectively. In the spatial branch, we use an hourglass structure to stack three convolutional layers with the hidden dimension reduced by ratio $r$ for efficiency. Finally, the spatial and channel features interact with each other by multiplication, yielding the DFE output. + +Unlike standard SA methods that predict queries, keys, and values by linear projection, we equate keys with values as they both reflect the intrinsic properties of input features, and only estimate queries $Q \in \mathbb{R}^{HW \times \frac{C}{2}}$ and values $V \in \mathbb{R}^{HW \times \frac{C}{2}}$ by splitting the DFE output as displayed in Fig. 4, + +$$ +[ Q, V ] = \operatorname {D F E} (X), \tag {3} +$$ + +which reduces the information redundancy caused by key estimation. Then, we partition queries and keys to non-overlapped windows according to the assigned window size, e.g., $Q_{i}$ , $V_{i} \in \mathbb{R}^{h_{i}w_{i} \times \frac{C}{2}}$ for the $i$ -th TL (the number of windows is omitted for simplicity), and use the partitioned queries and values for the subsequent self-correlation. + +Spatial Self-Correlation. Compared with W-SA, our S-SC aggregates spatial information in an efficient manner. Considering the expanding window sizes in + +Table 1: Complexity of different layer types. $C, N, h, w$ correspond to channel dimension, window number, height, and width. $m = \max (C, h_{\downarrow} w_{\downarrow})$ is upper bounded. + +

+ +our hierarchical strategy, we first adaptively summarize the spatial information of values $V_{i}$ in different TLs by applying linear layers on the spatial dimension (denoted as S-Linear and detailed in supplementary material), i.e., + +$$ +V _ {\downarrow , i} ^ {T} = \operatorname {S - L i n e a r} _ {i} \left(V _ {i} ^ {T}\right), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $V_{\downarrow ,i}\in \mathbb{R}^{h_{\downarrow}w_{\downarrow}\times \frac{C}{2}}$ denotes the projected values with + +$$ +\left[ h _ {\downarrow}, w _ {\downarrow} \right] = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \left[ h _ {i}, w _ {i} \right], & \text {i f} \alpha_ {i} \leq 1, \\ \left[ h _ {B}, w _ {B} \right], & \text {i f} \alpha_ {i} > 1. \end{array} \right. \tag {5} +$$ + +Thus, our HiT-SR is able to summarize high-level information from large windows, i.e., $\alpha_{i} > 1$ , and simultaneously preserve fine-grained features with small windows, i.e., $\alpha_{i} \leq 1$ . Afterward, we compute the S-SC based on $Q_{i}$ and $V_{\downarrow,i}$ as + +$$ +\operatorname {S} - \operatorname {S C} \left(Q _ {i}, V _ {\downarrow , i}\right) = \left(\frac {Q _ {i} V _ {\downarrow , i} ^ {T}}{D} + B\right) \cdot V _ {\downarrow , i}, \tag {6} +$$ + +where $B$ denotes the relative position encoding [43], and the constant denominator $D = \frac{C}{2}$ is used for normalization. Compared with the standard W-SA, our S-SC shows advantages in efficiency and complexity: (i) We utilize correlation maps instead of attention maps to aggregate information, dropping the hardware inefficient operation softmax to improve inference speeds [5]; (ii) Our S-SC supports large windows with linear computational complexity to window sizes. Supposing the input contains $N$ windows with each window in the $\mathbb{R}^{hw\times C}$ space, the numbers of multi-add operations required for W-SA and S-SC are + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \text {M u l t - A d d (W - S A)} = 2 N C (h w) ^ {2}, \\ \text {M u l t - A d d (S - S C)} = 2 N C h - h \end{array} \tag {7} +$$ + +$$ +\mathrm {M u l t - A d d (S - S C)} = 2 N C h _ {\downarrow} w _ {\downarrow} h w, +$$ + +where the former is quadratic to window sizes $h w$ . Since $h_{\downarrow}w_{\downarrow}$ is upper bounded by the fixed base window size $h_B w_B$ , the computational complexity of our S-SC is linear to the window size, benefiting window scaling-up. + +Channel Self-Correlation. Apart from spatial information, we further design C-SC to gather features from the channel domain, as depicted in Fig. 4. Given the partitioned queries and values in the $i$ -th TL, the output of C-SC is + +$$ +\operatorname {C} - \operatorname {S C} \left(Q _ {i}, V _ {i}\right) = \frac {Q _ {i} ^ {T} V _ {i}}{D _ {i}} \cdot V _ {i} ^ {T}, \tag {8} +$$ + +where the denominator $D_{i} = h_{i}w_{i}$ . Compared with the prevalent transposed attention for channel aggregation [3,9,48], our C-SC benefits from hierarchical windows and utilizes rich multi-scale information to boost SR performance. For computational complexity, the mult-add operations needed for C-SC is + +$$ +\text {M u l t - A d d} (\mathrm {C} - \mathrm {S C}) = 2 N C ^ {2} h w \tag {9} +$$ + +under inputs in the $\mathbb{R}^{N\times hw\times C}$ space. Combining Eq. (7) and (9), the complexity of our spatial-channel correlation maintains linear to window sizes as noted in Tab. 1, enabling scalable windows to make full use of hierarchical information. + +Different Correlation Head. Multi-head strategy is commonly employed in SA to gather information from different representation subspaces [39], and it has exhibited promising performance when dealing with spatial information [9, 26]. However, when processing channel information, the multi-head strategy instead restricts the receptive field of channel information aggregation, i.e., each channel can only interact with a limited set of other channels, leading to sub-optimal performance. To address this, we propose to apply the standard multi-head strategy to S-SC but use a single-head strategy in C-SC, enabling full channel interaction. Therefore, the S-SC can utilize information from different channel subspaces by the multi-head strategy, and the C-SC can exploit information from different spatial subspaces via hierarchical windows. + +# 4 Experiments and Analysis + +# 4.1 Experimental Settings + +Implementation Details. We apply our HiT-SR strategy to the popular SR method SwinIR-Light [26] and the recent state-of-the-art SR approaches SwinIR-NG [10] and SRFormer-Light [55], corresponding to HiT-SIR, HiT-SNG, and HiT-SRF in this paper. To fairly verify the effectiveness and adaptivity of our method, we convert each method to the HiT-SR version with minimal changes and apply the same hyperparameter settings for all SR transformers. Specifically, we follow the original settings of SwinIR-Light [26] and set the TB number, TL number, channel number, and head number of all HiT-SR improved models to 4, 6, 60, and 6, respectively. The base window size $h_B \times w_B$ are set to the widely adopted value, i.e., $8 \times 8$ , and we set the hierarchical ratios [0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8] for the 6 TLs in each TB. + +We apply the same training strategy to HiT-SIR, HiT-SNG, and HiT-SRF. All the models are implemented based on PyTorch [36] and trained with patch size $64 \times 64$ and batch size 64 for 500K iterations. $L_{1}$ loss and Adam optimizer [24] ( $\beta_{1} = 0.9$ and $\beta_{2} = 0.99$ ) are employed for model optimization. We set the initial learning rate as $5 \times 10^{-4}$ , and half it at [250K,400K,450K,475K] iterations. We also randomly utilize $90^{\circ}$ , $180^{\circ}$ , and $270^{\circ}$ rotations and horizontal flips for data augmentation during model training. + +Data and Evaluation.

The results in Tab. 2 show the remarkable performance of our HiT-SR methods on all benchmark datasets. Compared with the previous state-of-the-art approach SRFormer-Light, our HiT-SIR achieves comparable results with fewer parameters and FLOPs, and our HiT-SRF sets new state-of-the-art SR results across all upscaling factors. Furthermore, our HiT-SR improved methods show advantages over their original models in three main aspects: performance, efficiency, and convergence. (i) As illustrated in Tab. 3, our HiT-SR method contributes to significant improvements for SR performance, e.g., $0.26 / 0.23 / 0.22$ dB PSNR gains for HiT-SIR/HiT-SNG/HiT-SRF on Urban100 $(\times 2)$ dataset. (ii) By replacing the computationally inefficient shifted window self-attention with our SCC, all HiT-SR models require fewer computational resources and significantly boost inference speeds, achieving $\sim 7\times$ speed-up. Although the parameters and FLOPs improvements of HiT-SRF over SRFormer-Light are relatively smaller as SRFormer also improves the efficiency of transformer layers via permuted self-attention [55], our HiT-SRF still shows better SR performance with $7.8\times$ faster inference speed, benefiting practical usage. (iii) We finally compare the convergence curves of SwinIR-Light and our improved HiT-SIR on Urban100 $(\times 2)$ and Manga109 $(\times 2)$ datasets in Fig. 5.

Qualitative Comparisons. Fig. 6 shows qualitative comparisons in some challenging image SR scenes. Previous SR approaches often suffer from blurry details and artifacts, e.g., img_078, as they mainly utilize local features with limited receptive fields. In contrast, our HiT-SIR and HiT-SRF produce finer details and sharper textures by leveraging long-range dependencies with large windows. In addition, structure distortion is another common problem in SR results, especially in challenging scenarios like img_092. We can observe that previous methods fail to recover the image structure and deteriorate SR performance with distorted lines. Instead, our HiT-SR methods utilize multi-scale information e.g., repetitive patterns, and better retain the overall structure. The effectiveness of our HiT-SR is further validated by comparing the visual results of SwinIR-Light/SRFormer-Light and their improved versions HiT-SIR/HiT-SRF, which restore better image structures with finer details. + +# 4.3 Method Analysis + +In this section, we further verify the advantages of our HiT-SR method by analyzing its information aggregation ability and window scalability. + +Information Aggregation. We employ the local attribution maps (LAM) [19] to analyze the information aggregation performance of HiT-SR. LAM is a visual tool aiming at finding input pixels that strongly influence the SR outputs, i.e., informative areas, and larger informative areas mean better aggregation ability. As shown in Fig. 7, we apply the LAM approach to SwinIR-Light [26] and our im + +proved version HiT-SIR, and compare the informative areas for the same target regions. Due to the fixed small windows used in SwinIR-Light, the informative areas are limited to a local region, hindering the utilization of long-range dependencies. By contrast, our HiT-SIR significantly expands the informative areas by leveraging hierarchical features. Therefore, our proposed method is able to gather a wider range of information, e.g., similar structures and repetitive patterns, to boost SR performance. + +Window Scalability. We measure the required FLOPs for a single W-SA [26], PSA [55], and our SCC layer, under the same hyperparameter settings (channel and head numbers are set to 60 and 6, respectively). As depicted in Fig. 8, the FLOPs of W-SA increase drastically with the expansion of window size, making it unaffordable to utilize large windows. Although PSA alleviates the computational burden with permutation techniques, its complexity still remains quadratic to window sizes, limiting window scaling. Benefiting from the linear complexity of SCC, our method equips SR transformers with scalable large windows to efficiently gather long-range information. + +![](images/acc41f3dae56fd59a2355c14874648b4b87864d5d931d5d8b87ff94f7cc12dbb.jpg) +Fig. 8: FLOPs of W-SA in SwinIR [26], PSA in SRFormer [55], and our SCC, with respect to square window sizes. + +# 4.4 Ablation Study + +In Tab. 4, we study the effectiveness of each component in our design based on HiT-SIR network. All models are trained on the DIV2K dataset [1] for $300\mathrm{K}$ iterations and tested on the Manga109 ( $\times 2$ ) dataset [33]. We set the output size to $3 \times 720 \times 1280$ to compute FLOPs. Note that we maintain similar complexity across all variants by adjusting channel numbers for fair comparisons. + +Table 4: Ablation study. We train all models on DIV2K for 300K iterations, and test on Manga109 ( $\times 2$ ). The ablations about hierarchical windows, DFE, SCC, and different head strategies correspond to #1-4, #5-7, #8-12, and #13-15, where our strategies are noted in bold. Win. indicates the assigned window sizes for a transformer block, and #head means the number of correlation heads. Best results are colored red. + +

+ +Hierarchical Windows. To verify the effect of our window strategy, we conduct experiments with different window arrangement methods, including fixed small windows (#2), fixed large windows (#3), and shrinking hierarchical windows (#4). The model with small windows can only utilize local features for SR, resulting in sub-optimal performance. By establishing long-range dependencies, #3 boosts the PSNR results but simultaneously brings more computational burdens due to the fixed large window sizes. Compared with them, the models with hierarchical windows (#1 and #4) make full use of multi-scale features for SR, showing promising improvements in both performance and efficiency. Moreover, the proposed expanding hierarchical windows gain the best performance. This is because our expanding window strategy allows networks to first utilize the most relevant information and improve feature representation with small windows, benefiting the establishment of reliable long-range dependencies with the subsequent large windows. + +Dual Feature Extraction. In the layer-level design, we first investigate the impact of DFE by comparing it with linear projection (#6) and convolutional projection (#7). As shown in Tab. 4, the performance of linear projection is limited since only channel information is leveraged. Although spatial relation is exploited in convolution, efficiency-related techniques like dimension reduction or depth-wise operation are often employed to alleviate the computational burdens of convolutional layers, leading to insufficient utilization of channel information. By contrast, our DFE extracts spatial and channel information in a + +two-branch structure and fuses features from different domains, gaining significant performance improvements as shown in Tab. 4. + +Spatial-Channel Correlation. Our SCC efficiently aggregates spatial and channel information via self-correlation with queries and values. We first design a variant using commonly adopted queries, keys, and values for computation (QKV in $\# 9$ ). As illustrated in Tab. 4, the QKV setting performs similarly to our QV setting but consumes more computational resources. This is because keys and values both reflect the intrinsic properties of input features, and thus using only queries and values mitigates the information redundancy during computation. In addition, involving values in computing the correlation matrix, i.e., Eq. (6) and (8), also contributes to SR performance with more precise transforming relations. Next, we add softmax layers to Eq. (6) and (8), converting our correlation methods to attention approaches (\#10) for comparison. The results in Tab. 4 validate the better performance of our proposed methods without limiting the transformation scales by softmax operations. Finally, we conduct experiments by replacing SCC with only S-SC (\#11) or C-SC (\#12). From the metrics in Tab. 4, we can observe that C-SC performs better than S-SC, and utilizing both spatial and channel information leads to the overall best performance. + +Different Correlation Head. To study our different correlation head strategy, we train two models with the same single-head and multi-head strategies for both S-SC and C-SC, corresponding to #14 and #15 in Tab. 4. By comparing #13 and #14, one can see that adopting the single-head method for S-SC is inappropriate as single-head prevents S-SC from aggregating features from different representation spaces. Meanwhile, applying the multi-head approach to C-SC, i.e., #15, also impairs SR performance since splitting the channel into different heads prohibits each channel from gathering information from all the other channels. Compared with these variants, our different correlation head strategy achieves the best results by enabling S-SC to aggregate features from different channel subspaces while allowing full channel interaction in C-SC. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose a general strategy to convert popular transformer-based SR methods to hierarchical transformers for efficient image SR (HiT-SR). Our approach consists of block-level and layer-level designs. In each transformer block, we apply expanding hierarchical windows to establish long-range dependencies and leverage multi-scale features, boosting SR performance. Considering the quadratic complexity of self-attention methods, we devise a spatial-channel correlation (SCC) method with linear complexity to window sizes, benefiting the efficient aggregation of hierarchical features. Extensive evaluations are made to verify the effectiveness of the proposed HiT-SR, and our HiT-SIR, HiT-SNG, and HiT-SRF set new state-of-the-art results for efficient image SR. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported by Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (2021SHZDZX0102), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities, and Huawei Technologies Oy (Finland) Project. + +# References + +1.

Transformers have exhibited promising performance in computer vision tasks including image super-resolution (SR). However, popular transformer-based SR methods often employ window self-attention with quadratic computational complexity to window sizes, resulting in fixed small windows with limited receptive fields. In this paper, we present a general strategy to convert transformer-based SR networks to hierarchical transformers (HiT-SR), boosting SR performance with multi-scale features while maintaining an efficient design. Specifically, we first replace the commonly used fixed small windows with expanding hierarchical windows to aggregate features at different scales and establish long-range dependencies. Considering the intensive computation required for large windows, we further design a spatial-channel correlation method with linear complexity to window sizes, efficiently gathering spatial and channel information from hierarchical windows. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and efficiency of our HiT-SR, and our improved versions of SwinIR-Light, SwinIR-NG, and SRFormer-Light yield state-of-the-art SR results with fewer parameters, FLOPs, and faster speeds " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 262, + 455, + 449 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "(\\sim 7\\times)" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 262, + 455, + 449 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Super-Resolution " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Transformer " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 459, + 443, + 472 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Hierarchical Windows" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 490, + 230, + 502 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 490, + 230, + 502 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 490, + 230, + 502 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 514, + 482, + 622 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 514, + 482, + 622 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 514, + 482, + 622 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Image super-resolution (SR) is a classical low-level vision task that aims to convert a low-resolution (LR) image to its high-resolution (HR) counterpart with better visual details.

An essential component in popular transformer-based SR methods is the window self-attention (W-SA) [10, 26, 29, 30]. By bringing locality into self-attention, the W-SA mechanism not only better utilizes spatial information from input images but also mitigates the computational burden when processing high-resolution images [26, 30].

To mitigate the computational overhead, previous attempts often reduce channels to support large windows, e.g., channel splitting of group-wise multi-scale self-attention (GMSA) in ELAN [50] and channel compression of permuted self-attention block (PSA) in SRFormer [55].

Multi-head strategy is commonly employed in SA to gather information from different representation subspaces [39], and it has exhibited promising performance when dealing with spatial information [9, 26]. However, when processing channel information, the multi-head strategy instead restricts the receptive field of channel information aggregation, i.e., each channel can only interact with a limited set of other channels, leading to sub-optimal performance. To address this, we propose to apply the standard multi-head strategy to S-SC but use a single-head strategy in C-SC, enabling full channel interaction.

Qualitative Comparisons. Fig. 6 shows qualitative comparisons in some challenging image SR scenes. Previous SR approaches often suffer from blurry details and artifacts, e.g., img_078, as they mainly utilize local features with limited receptive fields. In contrast, our HiT-SIR and HiT-SRF produce finer details and sharper textures by leveraging long-range dependencies with large windows. In addition, structure distortion is another common problem in SR results, especially in challenging scenarios like img_092.

With the maturity of depth sensors, point clouds have received increasing attention in various 3D safety-critical applications, while deep point cloud learning models have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Most existing 3D attackers rely on implicit global distance losses to perturb whole points, failing to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), which leverages local spectral attributes to identify curvature-aware patches for hiding imperceptible perturbations aligned with their local geometric characteristics. Specifically, WPA first transforms the point cloud into the spectral domain using a wavelet operator, obtaining potential geometric structures in different local regions. Each wavelet corresponds to different curvature contexts of local points. Then, by decomposing the 3D object with different curvature-aware levels through the wavelet coefficients, we can perceive the local geometric characteristics and get various curvature-consistent patches. At last, based on the curvature variations of patches, WPA introduces two-type perturbations along the tangent plane and normal vector direction to hide imperceptible noise in slow- and fast-variation patches for preserving the geometric-sensitive local characteristics of smoothness and sharpness, respectively.

In the realm of 2D image, researches [4,18,26, 39] on adversarial attacks have achieved considerable progress, employing methods that add pixel-wise noise in the spatial or feature domain. However, as the 3D point cloud plays an important role in autonomous driving [3], robotics [24], healthcare [34], etc., the study of robustness in 3D models becomes increasingly critical. Yet, investigations into attacks on 3D deep models are still relatively underexplored.

Other works [1, 11, 19, 23, 25, 36, 38, 41, 51] follow the C&W framework [10] to globally perturb the point clouds' Euclidean coordinates through the optimization of the gradients in end-to-end. As illustrated in the upper of Fig. 1(a), these approaches generally employ global distance constraints, such as Chamfer and Hausdorff distances in the data domain, to add noise while implicitly preserving the original shape. Although they achieve high attack success rates, the noise applied under global constraints fails to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured, easily disrupting the structural dependencies among neighboring points. Recently, some methods [14, 20, 21, 37] have tried to utilize spectral tools to explicitly preserve the 3D geometries via frequency analysis. As demonstrated in the lower of Fig. 1(a), these methods utilize the Graph Fourier Transform(GFT) [12] to transform point clouds into the graph spectral domain, introducing noise to specific frequency bands to generate adversarial samples.

Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples, which has been extensively explored in the 2D image domain [27-29]. Recently, many works [11, 22, 37, 38, 42, 46, 49, 52-54] have been adapted to 2D adversarial attacks in the 3D vision community, which can be mainly divided into two categories: 1) point-addition/dropping attack: Xiang et al. [46] proposed point generation attacks by adding a limited number of synthesized points/clusters/objects to a point cloud, and showed its effectiveness in attacking the PointNet model [31]. Recently, more works [42, 49, 53] utilize gradient-guided attack methods to identify critical points in point clouds for modification, addition, and deletion. Their goal is to add or remove key points that can be identified by calculating the label-dependent importance score referring to the calculated gradient. 2) point perturbation attack: Previous point-wise perturbation attacks [38, 41] learn to perturb xyz coordinates of each point by adopting the C&W framework [1] based on the Chamfer and Hausdorff distances with additional consideration of the benign distribution of points. The subsequent works [11, 23, 25, 51] further applied the iterative gradient method to achieve more fine-grained adversarial perturbation. Since 3D objects generally contain complex and diverse geometric characteristics in different regions, previous works fail to perceive corresponding different types of point-to-point dependencies and directly perturb the whole point clouds, resulting in low imperceptibility.

Consequently, the spectral filter facilitates the reconstruction of the point cloud's original, noise-free structure. Additionally, various applications [2, 32] capture the intricate details of point clouds via transformed high-frequency components, employing these to identify contours or eliminate redundant information. Recently, [14, 22, 37] has employed the Graph Fourier Transform (GFT) to transpose point clouds into the spectral domain for generating adversarial examples. Specifically, [14] perturbs specific frequency bands to add perturbation that preserve geometric characteristics. [37] fuses two point clouds from different classes in the spectral domain for obtaining the decision boundary. [22] adds global noise to all points to preserve geometric shapes globally, perturbing sharp or smooth regions in random directions. However, as the GFT is a type of global transformation, [14, 22, 37] are incapable of aligning perturbations with the local geometric structures.

This insensitivity arises because, although various wavelet kernels transform point cloud data into the spectral domain in distinct manners, the spectral information posttransformation encompasses the intrinsic geometric structural features of the point cloud. Consequently, WPA yields comparable perturbation sizes in the data domain for patches corresponding to each point.

With the maturity of depth sensors, point clouds have received increasing attention in various 3D safety-critical applications, while deep point cloud learning models have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Most existing 3D attackers rely on implicit global distance losses to perturb whole points, failing to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), which leverages local spectral attributes to identify curvature-aware patches for hiding imperceptible perturbations aligned with their local geometric characteristics. Specifically, WPA first transforms the point cloud into the spectral domain using a wavelet operator, obtaining potential geometric structures in different local regions.

[46] proposed point generation attacks by adding a limited number of synthesized points/clusters/objects to a point cloud, and showed its effectiveness in attacking the PointNet model [31]. Recently, more works [42, 49, 53] utilize gradient-guided attack methods to identify critical points in point clouds for modification, addition, and deletion. Their goal is to add or remove key points that can be identified by calculating the label-dependent importance score referring to the calculated gradient. 2) point perturbation attack: Previous point-wise perturbation attacks [38, 41] learn to perturb xyz coordinates of each point by adopting the C&W framework [1] based on the Chamfer and Hausdorff distances with additional consideration of the benign distribution of points. The subsequent works [11, 23, 25, 51] further applied the iterative gradient method to achieve more fine-grained adversarial perturbation. Since 3D objects generally contain complex and diverse geometric characteristics in different regions, previous works fail to perceive corresponding different types of point-to-point dependencies and directly perturb the whole point clouds, resulting in low imperceptibility.

With the maturity of depth sensors, point clouds have received increasing attention in various 3D safety-critical applications, while deep point cloud learning models have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Most existing 3D attackers rely on implicit global distance losses to perturb whole points, failing to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), which leverages local spectral attributes to identify curvature-aware patches for hiding imperceptible perturbations aligned with their local geometric characteristics. Specifically, WPA first transforms the point cloud into the spectral domain using a wavelet operator, obtaining potential geometric structures in different local regions. Each wavelet corresponds to different curvature contexts of local points. Then, by decomposing the 3D object with different curvature-aware levels through the wavelet coefficients, we can perceive the local geometric characteristics and get various curvature-consistent patches. At last, based on the curvature variations of patches, WPA introduces two-type perturbations along the tangent plane and normal vector direction to hide imperceptible noise in slow- and fast-variation patches for preserving the geometric-sensitive local characteristics of smoothness and sharpness, respectively. Experiments demonstrate the superior imperceptibility of our attack method, achieving favorable results on existing 3D classification models while exhibiting robust resistance to various defense mechanisms. + +Keywords: Point Cloud $\cdot$ Adversarial Attack $\cdot$ Wavelet Transform + +# 1 Introduction + +Deep neural networks have shown to be vulnerable to adversarial examples [10, 35], which add visually indistinguishable perturbations to network inputs but + +![](images/098ea51a07437da56373327871d44ca6598f5d1f0eec88f3878866500ca73824.jpg) +Fig. 1: Motivation of our proposed attack. Different from perturbing whole points with global constraint or transformation, we utilize local spectral filters to perceive detailed local structures, then hide imperceptible noise in a subset of geometric-sensitive points, to preserve local geometric contexts for generating high-quality adversarial examples. + +lead to incorrect prediction results. In the realm of 2D image, researches [4,18,26, 39] on adversarial attacks have achieved considerable progress, employing methods that add pixel-wise noise in the spatial or feature domain. However, as the 3D point cloud plays an important role in autonomous driving [3], robotics [24], healthcare [34], etc., the study of robustness in 3D models becomes increasingly critical. Yet, investigations into attacks on 3D deep models are still relatively underexplored. Moreover, unlike 2D images [6-9], the unordered 3D data presents more challenges for adversarial attacks on deep-learning models. + +Most existing 3D adversarial attack methodologies [11, 38, 42, 46, 49, 52-54] generally adapt 2D adversarial techniques to the 3D scenario. Some of them [42, 46, 49, 53] adhere to the point addition/dropping framework, which identifies and modifies critical points within the point cloud to distort the whole representative features. Other works [1, 11, 19, 23, 25, 36, 38, 41, 51] follow the C&W framework [10] to globally perturb the point clouds' Euclidean coordinates through the optimization of the gradients in end-to-end. As illustrated in the upper of Fig. 1(a), these approaches generally employ global distance constraints, such as Chamfer and Hausdorff distances in the data domain, to add noise while implicitly preserving the original shape. Although they achieve high attack success rates, the noise applied under global constraints fails to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured, easily disrupting the structural dependencies among neighboring points. Recently, some methods [14, 20, 21, 37] have tried to utilize spectral tools to explicitly preserve the 3D geometries via frequency analysis. As demonstrated in the lower of Fig. 1(a), these methods utilize the Graph Fourier Transform(GFT) [12] to transform point clouds into the graph spectral domain, introducing noise to specific frequency bands to generate adversarial samples. However, GFT is a global transformation, which leads to changes across all points in the data domain, still failing to preserve the detailed point-to-point geometric dependency of distinct local regions. + +To alleviate the above issues, we endeavor to first decompose the point cloud into local regions with distinct geometric structures, then introduce to preserve + +the topology of geometric-sensitive regions to achieve heightened imperceptibility. Specifically, we incorporate the Spectral Graph Wavelet Transform from graph spectral tools [12,15,30] for analyzing the local geometric structures of the point cloud data. As depicted in Fig. 1(b), given that the wavelet kernel predominantly affects a point and its neighbor area, it can decompose the 3D object into curvature-aware patches according to the local geometries. By integrating these patch-level geometric contexts, we selectively add noise to geometric-sensitive patches with distinctive curvature characteristics, such as smooth or sharp regions. Then, we introduce to minimize the perturbation size of these noises to preserve corresponding smoothness and sharpness. In this way, we can generate adversarial samples by perturbing only a subset of points, while perceiving the local geometric information for completely preserving the original 3D shape. + +To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA) method, which adeptly utilizes local spectral properties to identify curvature-aware patches, thereby hiding imperceptible perturbations that align with their local geometric characteristics. WPA starts by transforming the point cloud into the spectral domain via the wavelet operator, thus unveiling the potential geometric structures within various local points. Each wavelet corresponds to different curvature contexts of local points. Following this, through the wavelet coefficients, the 3D object can be decomposed into patches with different curvature-aware levels, enabling perceiving the local geometric characteristics and getting various curvature-consistent patches. Ultimately, based on the curvature variations of different patches, WPA introduces two-type perturbations along the tangent plane and normal vector direction to hide imperceptible noise in slow- and fast-variation patches for preserving the patch-wise local characteristics of smoothness and sharpness, respectively. + +Our main contributions are summarized as follows: + +- We introduce a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), a technique capable of analyzing and capturing the geometric characteristics of various local regions within a point cloud, and adeptly hiding perturbations within areas of specific geometric structures. Unlike previous attacks that employed global constraints or transformations, our method better preserves the local geometric context, achieving superior imperceptibility. +- By perturbing only a subset of points, we have achieved an exceptionally high success rate of attack, while maintaining perturbation sizes that are equal to or even lower than those of other methods. Distinct from approaches that utilize deep learning to identify critical points for noise addition, our strategy employs traditional signal processing and geometric methods to locate sensitive points, offering greater interpretability. +- We conduct extensive experiments using popular 3D classification models on the ModelNet40 and ShapeNetPart datasets, validating the effectiveness of WPA. Moreover, we demonstrate WPA's robustness against current point cloud defense mechanisms and its superior performance compared to other attacks. + +# 2 Related Work + +Adversarial attacks on 3D point cloud. Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples, which has been extensively explored in the 2D image domain [27-29]. Recently, many works [11, 22, 37, 38, 42, 46, 49, 52-54] have been adapted to 2D adversarial attacks in the 3D vision community, which can be mainly divided into two categories: 1) point-addition/dropping attack: Xiang et al. [46] proposed point generation attacks by adding a limited number of synthesized points/clusters/objects to a point cloud, and showed its effectiveness in attacking the PointNet model [31]. Recently, more works [42, 49, 53] utilize gradient-guided attack methods to identify critical points in point clouds for modification, addition, and deletion. Their goal is to add or remove key points that can be identified by calculating the label-dependent importance score referring to the calculated gradient. 2) point perturbation attack: Previous point-wise perturbation attacks [38, 41] learn to perturb xyz coordinates of each point by adopting the C&W framework [1] based on the Chamfer and Hausdorff distances with additional consideration of the benign distribution of points. The subsequent works [11, 23, 25, 51] further applied the iterative gradient method to achieve more fine-grained adversarial perturbation. Since 3D objects generally contain complex and diverse geometric characteristics in different regions, previous works fail to perceive corresponding different types of point-to-point dependencies and directly perturb the whole point clouds, resulting in low imperceptibility. In this paper, we make the first attempt to distinguish the local geometric characteristics of different regions of a 3D object, and only hide the imperceptible noise in certain regions for preserving corresponding geometrics. + +Spectral methods for 3D point cloud. Numerous methodologies have been developed that use spectral information to understand point clouds. For instance, several 3D denoising techniques [33, 50] convert the input point cloud into the graph spectral domain, wherein the rough shape of a point cloud is encapsulated within low-frequency components. Consequently, the spectral filter facilitates the reconstruction of the point cloud's original, noise-free structure. Additionally, various applications [2, 32] capture the intricate details of point clouds via transformed high-frequency components, employing these to identify contours or eliminate redundant information. Recently, [14, 22, 37] has employed the Graph Fourier Transform (GFT) to transpose point clouds into the spectral domain for generating adversarial examples. Specifically, [14] perturbs specific frequency bands to add perturbation that preserve geometric characteristics. [37] fuses two point clouds from different classes in the spectral domain for obtaining the decision boundary. [22] adds global noise to all points to preserve geometric shapes globally, perturbing sharp or smooth regions in random directions. However, as the GFT is a type of global transformation, [14, 22, 37] are incapable of aligning perturbations with the local geometric structures. In contrast, our utilization of wavelets' pronounced locality aids in identifying the local regions corresponding to each point, thereby enabling us to hide imperceptible noise in specific points. + +![](images/1716d87722b8801a159337a70a9a3e55bc28b1d331dd4e193b071c709d58bb97.jpg) +Fig. 2: Pipeline of our proposed WPA attack. To capture the local geometric structures of 3D objects, we first utilize the wavelet operator to transform the point cloud into the spectral domain with different filters for obtaining detailed and distinct local representations. Then, we apply the ISS subsampling algorithm on the 3D shape with previously obtained local wavelet coefficients to locate critical points and decompose object into curvature-consistent patches. Based on these patches, we develop two-type attack methods $\mathrm{WPA}^{hc}$ and $\mathrm{WPA}^{lc}$ to selectively perturb the points on the imperceptible regions (i.e., characteristics of smoothness and sharpness) of low visual sensitivity. + +# 3 Methodology + +# 3.1 Overview + +Problem formulation. Point cloud data represents the collection of surface points sampled from a target object or scene within the selected three-dimensional coordinate system. In general, a point cloud $\mathcal{P}$ comprises an unordered set of points $\{\pmb{p}_i\}_{i=1}^n$ , where $\pmb{p}_i \in \mathbb{R}^3$ signifies a coordinate vector, $n$ denotes the number of points encompassed by the point cloud. Since our paper primarily focuses on the task of 3D point cloud classification, we denote the 3D classification model as $f(\cdot): \mathbb{R}^{n \times 3} \to \mathbb{R}^C$ . For each input $\mathcal{P}$ , the classifier's objective is to yield a correct prediction $y = F(\mathcal{P}) = \arg\max_{i \in [C]} f(\mathcal{P})_i \in Y$ . $Y = \{1,2,3,\dots,C\}$ represents the authentic class of the point cloud, and $C$ denotes the number of classes. Generally, to achieve adversarial attacks on point cloud classification models, the attackers aim to add adversarial noise $\Delta \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times 3}$ to the original point cloud $\mathcal{P}$ , so that the well-trained classifier is misled to make wrong predictions for the adversarial point cloud $\mathcal{P}' = \mathcal{P} + \Delta$ . + +Attack pipeline. To generate high-quality adversarial samples, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), which aims to hide adversarial noise in specific regions of a point cloud while preserving corresponding local geometric + +characteristics. As shown in Fig. 2, WPA first transforms the point cloud into the spectral domain using wavelet filters to generate a wavelet coefficients matrix that represents the geometric dependency across local points. Then, to generate curvature-aware patches according to the coefficients matrix, we employ an Intrinsic Shape Signature (ISS) strategy to uniformly sample critical points, and utilize them to meticulously carve out wavelet patches with local characteristics of wavelets at each point. Combining these feature points with their corresponding patches, WPA proceeds to rank them based on curvature magnitude. To make the attack more natural and imperceptible, we only select two specific patches with sensitive geometric curvatures (lowest curvature of smoothness and highest curvature of sharpness) for perturbations. Two distinct attack variants, i.e., $\mathrm{WPA}^{hc}$ and $\mathrm{WPA}^{lc}$ , are further devised to attack these selected patches, respectively. In this manner, our approach is able to perceive and preserve distinct local geometries for generating high-quality adversarial samples. + +# 3.2 Exploring Local Geometric Characteristics of Point Clouds through Wavelets Processing + +Most existing 3D attack methods are developed in the data domain, which perturb points through implicit global distance constraints. Although some methods try to add noise in the spectral domain, all of these methods globally perturb the whole points of 3D objects, failing to perceive and preserve the distinctive types of point-to-point dependencies in local regions (such as smoothness and sharpness). To perceive local geometric characteristics for better preserving the topology of 3D objects, we endeavor to utilize the wavelet operator, the pronounced locality of which enables explicit preservation of local geometric characteristics across various parts of the point cloud, while retaining interaction information between points in the spectral domain. + +Preliminary of spectral transformation. To transform the unordered point cloud into spectral domain, point cloud $\mathcal{P}$ is commonly represented by a symmetric (i.e. undirected) graph $\mathcal{G} = \{\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E},\mathbf{A}\}$ containing $n = |\mathcal{V}|$ nodes. $\mathcal{V}$ represents the node set, $\mathcal{E}$ denotes the edge set, and $\mathbf{A}$ signifies the weighted adjacency matrix of the graph. To capture local correspondence within the point cloud, we construct an undirected $K$ -nearest-neighbor graph ( $K$ NN graph), subsequently completing the $\nu$ of $\mathcal{G}$ . The graph weights $w_{i,j} = w_{j,i}\in \mathbf{A}$ are then determined by calculating the Euclidean distance between points $\pmb {p}_i$ and $\pmb {p}_j$ , i.e., $w_{i,j} = w_{j,i} = ||\pmb {p}_j - \pmb {p}_j||_2$ . Moreover, each node $v_{i}\in \mathcal{V}$ is assigned a graph signal $\pmb{h}_i$ . Different from previous work [14], we treat the graph signal $\pmb{h}_i$ as $\delta_i$ , where $\delta_i\in \mathbb{R}^n$ is a one-hot vector with 1 on $v_{i}$ and zeros elsewhere. + +In general Graph Fourier Transformation (GFT), the combinatorial graph Laplacian operator is defined as $\pmb{L} \coloneqq \pmb{D} - \pmb{A}$ , where $\pmb{D}$ represents the degree matrix, with each element $d_{i,j} = \sum_{j=1}^{n} w_{i,j}$ . As the constructed $\mathcal{G}$ has non-negative real values for $w_{i,j}$ , the resulting matrix $\pmb{L}$ is real, symmetric, and positive semi-definite. It admits an eigenvalue-decomposition $\pmb{L} = \pmb{U} \pmb{\Lambda} \pmb{U}^T$ , where $\pmb{U} = [u_1, \dots, u_n]$ comprises orthonormal eigenvectors $\pmb{u}_i$ , and $\pmb{\Lambda} = \text{diag}(\lambda_1, \dots, \lambda_n)$ + +consists of eigenvalues $\{\lambda_1 = 0\leq \lambda_2\leq \ldots \leq \lambda_n\}$ . In the realm of graph signal processing, the aforementioned eigenvalues $\lambda$ are referred to as the graph spectrum. + +Transform point clouds through wavelet operator. Diverging from global transformations like the aforementioned GFT, the Spectral Graph Wavelet Transform [12] was the first to combine a spectral design with spatial domain localization. This wavelet transform presents a sparser encoding for graph signals, with the wavelet kernel acting within its local region, equivalent to the neighborhood of the central node. Therefore, wavelet transform demonstrates higher encoding efficiency, particularly in undirected graphs formed by point clouds, enabling a more precise capture of local characteristics and geometric structures for each point. To perceive and preserve the local geometries, we introduce to utilize wavelet transform for spectral transformation in this section. + +Specifically, the wavelet kernel is constructed by designing a real-valued function $g(\cdot):\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^n$ . In the spectral domain of $L$ , $g(\cdot)$ manifests as a band-pass filter, akin to the Fourier transform of the "mother wavelet" for the continuous wavelet transform. Therefore, we can define the wavelet operator/ transformation as: + +$$ +T _ {g} ^ {s} = g _ {s} (\boldsymbol {L}) = \boldsymbol {U} \boldsymbol {\Lambda} (g _ {s} (\lambda)) \boldsymbol {U} ^ {T}, \tag {1} +$$ + +where $s$ denotes the scale of wavelet operator. By applying the $T_{g}^{s}$ to $\pmb{h}_{i}$ of each node, we can obtain corresponding individual spectral graph wavelet coefficients centered at node $i$ : + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\psi} _ {s, i} = T _ {g} ^ {s} \boldsymbol {h} _ {i} = \boldsymbol {U} \boldsymbol {\Lambda} (g _ {s} (\lambda)) \boldsymbol {U} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {h} _ {i}. \tag {2} +$$ + +It is worth noting that due to the band-pass filter nature of the wavelet kernel function $g(\cdot)$ , $g(0) = 0$ , and $\lim_{\lambda \to 0} g(\lambda) \to 0$ , wavelet transform typically introduces a set of scaling functions to serve as a low-pass filter during signal decomposition. To enhance the representation of low-frequency signals, the same goes for our work. Thereby, $T_g^s \pmb{h}$ gives the wavelet coefficients $\pmb{\psi}_{s,i}$ for the graph signal $\pmb{h}$ at scale $s$ . + +Analysis on wavelet outputs. By applying the wavelet transformation to the undirected $K$ -NN graph $\mathcal{G}$ , we can obtain the wavelet coefficients matrix as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Psi} = \phi_ {W T} (\mathcal {P}, s) = [ \psi_ {s, 1}, \dots , \psi_ {s, n} ], \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\phi_{WT}$ denotes the wavelet transformation. From the perspective of graph signal processing, the $j$ -th coefficient in the vector $\psi_{s,i} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ represents the contribution of node $j$ concerning the central node $i$ or, in other words, the energy diffused from the node $i$ to node $j$ . In terms of the practical significance of point cloud data, the wavelet $\psi_{s,i}$ for each point characterizes the local geometric structures and semantic context within the local points, centered around node $i$ . By comparing the coefficient of each individual wavelet with $\epsilon$ , we can utilize a threshold $\epsilon$ to define geometry-sensitive patch $\pmb{P}_i \subseteq \mathcal{P}$ at $\pmb{p}_i$ . We decompose these patches from the whole point cloud via the following formulation: + +$$ +\operatorname {D e c o m p o s e} (\mathcal {P}, \boldsymbol {\Psi}; i, \epsilon) = \boldsymbol {P} _ {i} = \left\{\boldsymbol {p} _ {j} \right\} _ {i}, \quad s. t. \quad | \boldsymbol {\psi} _ {s, i} (j) | > \epsilon , \quad \boldsymbol {p} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {j} \in \mathcal {P}. \tag {4} +$$ + +![](images/3ca973b5efd92837972f4e44b05f0d47e22ec3c53f6eb8b757a735dcb0b97d29.jpg) + +![](images/00407981c15ababb55384e2fb8e1d36c891421ed7090bbc5dce0f85368a8f950.jpg) + +![](images/e1a8fd415c7b774de79895a1cfff61b4167d52fd8191fd3e61b3921745a3793f.jpg) +Fig.3: Visualization on matrix $\varPsi$ generating by the wavelet operator, individual wavelet $\psi_{i}$ at point $\pmb{p}_i$ , and its attended patch $\pmb{P_i}$ . For clearly reading, we only demonstrate a part of $\varPsi$ . + +![](images/f7ee27fdbff7dc3145c03a3d7584176fa9699d2990815e1aa8be0598de81456c.jpg) + +Based on this, we can obtain $n$ number of patches $\{P_i\}_{i=1}^n$ for each point in $\mathcal{P}$ . For example, as illustrated in Fig. 3, we acquire the wavelet coefficient matrix $\pmb{\varPsi}$ for each object through the wavelet transformation. This matrix's sparsely highlighted sections correspond to the wavelet's localized effects. Consequently, from the individual wavelets $\psi_i$ in the matrix (center of the subplot), we can obtain the attended patch $P_i$ acquired from Eq. (4), with each patch encompassing the geometric context of the local region. + +# 3.3 Crafting Imperceptible Perturbations in Curvature-aware Patches + +By employing the above spectral methods, we are able to perceive point-based regions corresponding to different local geometries. To scrutinize the variances among different patches and their significance in point cloud classification tasks, we analyze the patches by calculating their curvature and selectively add noise only on the geometric-sensitive patches. To minimize the number of perturbed points and imperceptibly hide noise, we devise distinct attack methodologies for selected patches with varying curvatures. + +Select specific patches for decomposing point clouds. Using all patches constructed on each point is complicated since there are significant overlaps between adjacent patches. Therefore, we propose to employ a subsampling algorithm to decompose the whole point cloud into different local patches, i.e., it suffices to select a subset from $\{P_i\}_{i=1}^n$ , one that can approximate the entire original point cloud. + +To be specific, we utilize the Intrinsic Shape Signature (ISS) algorithm, which is a traditional point cloud processing method calculating the curvature of the point cloud and the normal vectors. It employs curvature and normal vector to construct an intrinsic shape signature, capturing local shape details. The analysis of the ISS yields a set of feature points $\mathcal{P}^{ISS} \subset \mathcal{P}$ . By leveraging the wavelet + +outputs and ISS, the point cloud can be decomposed into distinct patches: + +$$ +\{\mathrm {D e c o m p o s e} (\mathcal {P}, \boldsymbol {\Psi}; i, \epsilon) \} _ {i = 1} ^ {m} = \{\boldsymbol {P} _ {i} \} ^ {I S S}, \quad s. t. \quad \boldsymbol {p} _ {i} \in \mathcal {P} ^ {I S S} = \phi_ {I S S} (\mathcal {P}), \quad (5) +$$ + +where $m$ is the number of points in $\mathcal{P}^{ISS}$ , $\phi_{ISS}$ denotes the ISS subsampling algorithm and each single patch $\pmb{P}_i$ is centering at $\pmb{p}_i$ . + +Add curvature-aware noise to specific patches. In order to hide adversarial perturbations within specific patches more covertly, we conduct curvature calculations and subsequent sorting for each wavelet patch in $\{P_i\}^{ISS}$ . For the highest or lowest curvatures, the adversarial perturbation is applied along the direction of the normal vectors or tangent plane at the patch points, respectively. + +In accordance with the chosen patch curvature magnitudes, two types of attacks are constructed as $\mathrm{WPA}^{hc}$ and $\mathrm{WPA}^{lc}$ . For patch curvatures characterized by highest magnitudes denoted as $P^{high}$ and lowest magnitudes denoted as $P^{low}$ , we introduce perturbations $\Delta_{high}, \Delta_{low} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times 1}$ , respectively. These perturbations are added to the normal vectors and tangent plane directions of the patch points: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {P} ^ {\text {h i g h}} = \boldsymbol {P} _ {m - k + 1} \cup \boldsymbol {P} _ {m - k + 2} \cup \dots \cup \boldsymbol {P} _ {m}, \tag {6} +$$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {P} ^ {\text {l o w}} = \boldsymbol {P} _ {1} \cup \boldsymbol {P} _ {2} \cup \dots \cup \boldsymbol {P} _ {k}, \tag {7} +$$ + +where $m$ is the number of patches contained in $\{P_i\}^{ISS}$ . $P^{high}$ and $P^{low}$ respectively represent the sets of patches with the $k$ highest or lowest curvatures. To selectively perturb points, diagonal mask matrices are constructed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {M} _ {h i g h} = \operatorname {d i a g} \left(r _ {i} ^ {h i g h}\right) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {n \times n} \quad s. t. \quad r _ {i} ^ {h i g h} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} 0, \boldsymbol {p} _ {i} \notin \boldsymbol {P} ^ {h i g h} \\ 1, \boldsymbol {p} _ {i} \in \boldsymbol {P} ^ {h i g h} \end{array} , \right. \tag {8} +$$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {M} _ {l o w} = \operatorname {d i a g} \left(r _ {i} ^ {l o w}\right) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {n \times n} \quad s. t. \quad r _ {i} ^ {l o w} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} 0, \boldsymbol {p} _ {i} \notin \boldsymbol {P} ^ {l o w} \\ 1, \boldsymbol {p} _ {i} \in \boldsymbol {P} ^ {l o w} \end{array} , \right. \tag {9} +$$ + +which ensures the perturbations are zero for non-selected points. The final adversarial perturbation $\pmb{\Delta}$ can be obtained through the following: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\Delta} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \boldsymbol {\Delta} _ {h i g h} \cdot \boldsymbol {M} _ {h i g h} \boldsymbol {N} _ {n o r m a l}, f o r \mathrm {W P A} ^ {h c} \\ \boldsymbol {\Delta} _ {l o w} \cdot \boldsymbol {M} _ {l o w} \boldsymbol {N} _ {t a n g e n t}, f o r \mathrm {W P A} ^ {l c} \end{array} , \right. \tag {10} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{N}_{\text{normal}} = [\pmb{n}_1, \dots, \pmb{n}_n]^T$ and $\mathbf{N}_{\text{tangent}} = [\pmb{t}_1, \dots, \pmb{t}_n]^T$ are matrices composed of the normal vectors $\pmb{n} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ or tangent vectors $\pmb{t} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ for each point in $\mathcal{P}$ . $\pmb{n}$ and $\pmb{t}$ can be calculated for point $\pmb{p}_i$ using traditional methods introduced in [13]. In particular, the $3 \times 3$ positive semi-definite covariance matrix $C$ is constructed as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {C} = \sum_ {i \neq j} \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {j} - \boldsymbol {p} _ {i}\right) \otimes \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {i} - \boldsymbol {p} _ {j}\right), \quad s. t. \quad \boldsymbol {p} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {j} \in \boldsymbol {P} ^ {\text {h i g h}} \quad o r \quad \boldsymbol {p} _ {i}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {j} \in \boldsymbol {P} ^ {\text {l o w}}, \tag {11} +$$ + +where $\otimes$ denotes the operator of outer product. By performing eigenvalue decomposition on $C$ , $\pmb{n}_i$ will be obtained as the eigenvector corresponding to the smallest eigenvalue, and the vector resulting from the addition of the other two eigenvectors as $\pmb{t}_i$ . + +# 3.4 Generating Adversarial Examples. + +The task of generating the adversarial sample $\mathcal{P}'$ can be formulated as the following optimization problem: + +$$ +\min _ {\boldsymbol {\Delta}} \mathcal {L} _ {m i s} (f (\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime}), y) + \alpha \cdot \mathcal {L} _ {r e g} (\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime}, \mathcal {P}), \quad s. t. \quad \mathcal {P} ^ {\prime} = \mathcal {P} + \boldsymbol {\Delta}, \tag {12} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{L}_{mis}$ is the cross-entropy loss used to enhance the misclassification of the model, $\mathcal{L}_{reg}$ is the regularizer penalizing the difference between $\mathcal{P}'$ and $\mathcal{P}$ , and $\alpha$ is the penalty parameter. Here, we employ Chamfer distance(CD) [5] and Hausdorff distance(HD) [17] as the regularizer loss $\mathcal{L}_{reg}(\mathcal{P}',\mathcal{P})$ . The final formulation for adversarial sample generation can be represented by: + +$$ +\min _ {\Delta} \mathcal {L} _ {m i s} (f (\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime}), y) + \alpha \cdot \left(\beta_ {1} \cdot \mathcal {L} _ {C D} \left(\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime}, \mathcal {P}\right) + \beta_ {2} \cdot \mathcal {L} _ {H D} \left(\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime}, \mathcal {P}\right)\right), \tag {13} +$$ + +where + +$$ +\mathcal {P} ^ {\prime} = \mathcal {P} + \boldsymbol {\Delta}, \quad \text {s . t .} \quad \boldsymbol {\Delta} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \boldsymbol {\Delta} _ {h i g h} \cdot M _ {h i g h} \boldsymbol {N} _ {n o r m a l}, f o r \mathrm {W P A} ^ {h c} \\ \boldsymbol {\Delta} _ {l o w} \cdot M _ {l o w} \boldsymbol {N} _ {t a n g e n t}, f o r \mathrm {W P A} ^ {l c}. \end{array} \right. \tag {14} +$$ + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Attack Setup + +Datasets and baselines. We employ ModelNet40 [44] and ShapeNetPart [48] to evaluate the performance of various adversarial attack methods on point clouds. Specifically, ModelNet40 consists of 9,843 CAD models designated for training and 2,468 for testing. ShapeNetPart consists of 12,137 shapes allocated for training, with 2,874 set aside for testing. Notably, we exclusively selected objects from the test set that were accurately classified by benign classifiers to generate adversarial samples, which are ensured to uniformly sample to 1,024 points. Our approach is comprehensively evaluated on the four most popular models, i.e., PointNet [31], DGCNN [40], PointConv [43], and CurveNet [47]. + +Implementation details. The B-spline wavelet kernel was applied as $T_{g}$ in Eq. (1). We use Adam optimizer to optimize the objective in Eq. (13). A steadfast training regimen of 200 iterations is implemented, wherein the learning rate and momentum are established at 0.01 and 0.9, respectively. The penalty coefficients $\beta_{1} = 1$ and $\beta_{2} = 0.1$ are adopted as the default values in Eq. (13). The initial penalty coefficient $\alpha$ in Eq. (12) is set to 10, subject to automatic adjustment via a binary search conducted over 20 iterations, which follows [1]. In Eq. (4), we set the threshold $\epsilon$ to $10^{-5}$ , and the proportion of points under attack that determined by $k$ in Eqs. (6) and (7) is established at 0.5. We select $K = 10$ for the building a $K$ -NN Graph and $s = 2$ as the scale in Eq. (3) for the wavelet operator. All experiments are conducted on a single NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000 GPU. + +Table 1: Quantitative comparison on the perturbation size generated by different attack methods on ModelNet40 and ShapeNetPart dataset.

+ +# 4.2 Attack Performance + +Quantitative comparison. To fairly evaluate the efficacy of our proposed WPA, we conducted a comparative analysis against five other methods, namely PGD [26], AdvPC [11], SI-Adv [16], GeoA [41], GSDA [14], ITA [19], GSDA++ [21]. The results of this comparison are shown in Tab. 1. It is observed that our WPA method achieves a $100\%$ attack success rate(ASR) across four different victim 3D models, while generating adversarial samples with almost the lowest perturbation size according to evaluation metrics. This substantiates the effectiveness of WPA, demonstrating its capability to hide imperceptible noise within curvature-aware patches, thereby reducing the number of perturbed points to achieve comparable, if not superior, adversarial attack impact. + +Visualization results. We present the visualization results of our proposed WPA alongside those of GeoA [41] and GSDA [14] in Fig. 4. It can be observed that our adversarial examples are more imperceptible than other attacks. This is attributed to the fact that, unlike GeoA and GSDA which employ global constraints and transformations, our approach selectively perturbs geometric-sensitive patches and introduces curvature-wise noise. Consequently, we achieve remarkably effective attacks by only perturbing a subset of points. Additionally, the right side of Fig. 4 also presents the visualization of the wavelet coefficients of the original point clouds. + +Evaluation on Robustness. To demonstrate the efficacy of attacks on well-defended 3D models, we conducted experiments with various defense methods, including Statistical Outlier Removal(SOR) [55], Simple Random Sampling(SRS) [49], Dup-Net [55], and IF-Defense [45]. As illustrated in Tab. 2, the success rate of PGD is relatively low across all defenses because it often results in an uneven local distribution and outliers.

+ +we randomly select a same number of patches to perturb without changing the generated noise's direction. The results indicate that on the ModelNet40 dataset, the adversarial samples crafted using ISS exhibit a lower perturbation size. This is attributable to the fact that the local regions where the critical points obtained from ISS subsampling play a more pronounced role in the feature of the whole shape. Conversely, on the ShapeNetPart dataset, attacks applying ISS achieved a higher ASR, but requiring a larger perturbation budget. On the other hand, attack strategies that targeted specific curvatures yielded superior experimental outcomes. This is attributable to the strategic concealment of noise within the local geometric structures, thereby achieving enhanced imperceptibility. + +Investigation on different types of wavelet kernel. To investigate the impact of different wavelet kernels within the wavelet operator on attack performance, we conducted experiments utilizing a variety of wavelet kernels. As shown in Tab. 4, our WPA remains relatively insensitive to the choice of wavelet kernel, provided all other experimental conditions are kept constant. This insensitivity arises because, although various wavelet kernels transform point cloud data into the spectral domain in distinct manners, the spectral information posttransformation encompasses the intrinsic geometric structural features of the point cloud. Consequently, WPA yields comparable perturbation sizes in the data domain for patches corresponding to each point. Based on these findings, we select the B-spline wavelet kernel, which demonstrated the most favorable experimental outcomes, as the default setting for all subsequent experiments. + +Investigation on the proportion of perturbed points determined by $k$ .

(6) and (7). By adjusting the $k$ for patches with $k$ highest/lowest curvature, $\mathrm{WPA}^{hc} / \mathrm{WPA}^{lc}$ introduces imperceptible noise to different proportion of points. The results indicate that the adversarial attacks are successful across all values, demonstrating our method's efficacy in hiding noise within the point cloud's geometric structure. When the proportion of perturbed points is set to 0.5, the adversarial samples exhibit superior and stable perturbation sizes, achieving commendable attack performance with only partial points perturbed. + +Investigation on penalty parameters $\beta_{1}$ and $\beta_{2}$ . To investigate the impact of the regularization constraints $\beta_{1}$ and $\beta_{2}$ in Eq. (13), we conducted a study wherein one value was held constant at its default setting while another was varied. The experimental findings revealed that varying $\beta_{1}$ and $\beta_{2}$ yielded a consistent attack success rate of $100\%$ . Moreover, as demonstrated in Fig. 6, the default settings of $\beta_{1} = 1$ and $\beta_{2} = 0.1$ delivered the most optimal results in terms of perturbation size. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack(WPA), which leverages local spectral attributes to identify curvature-aware patches for hiding imperceptible perturbations aligned with their local geometric characteristics. By utilizing the wavelet transform, we are able to capture local regions embedded with the local geometric context, subsequently decomposing the point cloud into geometric-sensitive patches. Then, we introduced imperceptible noise to different patches based on curvature variations, thereby generating adversarial examples with minimized perturbation size by perturbing only a subset of points. Experiments validate both effectiveness and robustness of our WPA. + +# References + +1. Carlini, N., Wagner, D.: Towards evaluating the robustness of neural networks.

With the maturity of depth sensors, point clouds have received increasing attention in various 3D safety-critical applications, while deep point cloud learning models have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Most existing 3D attackers rely on implicit global distance losses to perturb whole points, failing to restrict the proper 3D geometry as point clouds are highly structured. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Wavelet Patches Attack (WPA), which leverages local spectral attributes to identify curvature-aware patches for hiding imperceptible perturbations aligned with their local geometric characteristics. Specifically, WPA first transforms the point cloud into the spectral domain using a wavelet operator, obtaining potential geometric structures in different local regions. Each wavelet corresponds to different curvature contexts of local points. Then, by decomposing the 3D object with different curvature-aware levels through the wavelet coefficients, we can perceive the local geometric characteristics and get various curvature-consistent patches. At last, based on the curvature variations of patches, WPA introduces two-type perturbations along the tangent plane and normal vector direction to hide imperceptible noise in slow- and fast-variation patches for preserving the geometric-sensitive local characteristics of smoothness and sharpness, respectively.

Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples, which has been extensively explored in the 2D image domain [27-29]. Recently, many works [11, 22, 37, 38, 42, 46, 49, 52-54] have been adapted to 2D adversarial attacks in the 3D vision community, which can be mainly divided into two categories: 1) point-addition/dropping attack: Xiang et al. [46] proposed point generation attacks by adding a limited number of synthesized points/clusters/objects to a point cloud, and showed its effectiveness in attacking the PointNet model [31]. Recently, more works [42, 49, 53] utilize gradient-guided attack methods to identify critical points in point clouds for modification, addition, and deletion. Their goal is to add or remove key points that can be identified by calculating the label-dependent importance score referring to the calculated gradient. 2) point perturbation attack: Previous point-wise perturbation attacks [38, 41] learn to perturb xyz coordinates of each point by adopting the C&W framework [1] based on the Chamfer and Hausdorff distances with additional consideration of the benign distribution of points. The subsequent works [11, 23, 25, 51] further applied the iterative gradient method to achieve more fine-grained adversarial perturbation. Since 3D objects generally contain complex and diverse geometric characteristics in different regions, previous works fail to perceive corresponding different types of point-to-point dependencies and directly perturb the whole point clouds, resulting in low imperceptibility.

Consequently, the spectral filter facilitates the reconstruction of the point cloud's original, noise-free structure. Additionally, various applications [2, 32] capture the intricate details of point clouds via transformed high-frequency components, employing these to identify contours or eliminate redundant information. Recently, [14, 22, 37] has employed the Graph Fourier Transform (GFT) to transpose point clouds into the spectral domain for generating adversarial examples. Specifically, [14] perturbs specific frequency bands to add perturbation that preserve geometric characteristics. [37] fuses two point clouds from different classes in the spectral domain for obtaining the decision boundary. [22] adds global noise to all points to preserve geometric shapes globally, perturbing sharp or smooth regions in random directions. However, as the GFT is a type of global transformation, [14, 22, 37] are incapable of aligning perturbations with the local geometric structures.

A central problem in biology is to understand how organisms evolve and adapt to their environment by acquiring variations in the observable characteristics or traits of species across the tree of life.

Toward this goal, we introduce Phylo-Diffusion, a novel framework for conditioning diffusion models with phylogenetic knowledge represented in the form of HIERarchical Embeddings (HIER-Embeds). We also propose two new experiments for perturbing the embedding space of Phylo-Diffusion: trait masking and trait swapping, inspired by counterpart experiments of gene knockout and gene editing/swapping.

Discovering traits that are heritable across the tree of life, termed evolutionary traits, is important for a variety of biological tasks such as tracing the evolutionary timing of trait variations common to a group of species and analyzing their genetic underpinnings through gene-knockout or gene-editing/swapping (e.g., CRISPR [22]) experiments.

This is facilitating breakthroughs in a variety of commercial use-cases of computer vision where we can analyze how changes in the input prompts affect variations in the generated images [7, 27, 34]. We ask the question: can we leverage LDMs to control the generation of biological images of organisms conditioned on the position of a species in the tree of life?

We also propose two novel experiments for analyzing evolutionary traits by perturbing the embedding space of Phylo-Diffusion and observing changes in the features of generated images, akin to biological experiments involving genetic perturbations. First, we introduce Trait Masking, where one or more levels of information in HIER-Embed are masked out with noise to study the disappearance of traits inherited by species at those levels. This is inspired by gene knockout experiments [10], wherein one or more genes are deactivated or \"knocked out\" to investigate the gene's function, particularly its impact on the traits of the organism. Second, we introduce Trait Swapping, where a certain level of HIER-Embed in a reference species is swapped with the embedding of a sibling node at the same level, similar in spirit to gene editing/swapping experiments made possible by the CRISPR technology [22].

Our proposed experiments of trait masking and swapping can also be viewed as novel image-based counterparts to genetic experiments, which traditionally take years.

While Phylo-NN shares several similarities with our proposed framework, Phylo-Diffusion, in terms of motivations and problem formulations, there are also prominent differences. The primary goal of Phylo-NN is specimen-level image reconstruction, whereas Phylo-Diffusion considers a different goal of controlling image generation at the species-level. As a result, Phylo-NN learns a unique Imageome sequence for every organism, enabling us to study the variability in individuals from the same species and the analysis of similarity in Imageome segments learned at shared ancestry levels. On the other hand, Phylo-Diffusion learns a unique embedding for every species and ancestor node in the tree of life, which serves as input conditions to generate distributions of synthetic images. Phylo-Diffusion thus uses hard constraints to ensure that all species with a common ancestor learn the exact same embeddings at their shared ancestry levels, making it easy to analyze trait commonalities and variations across groups of species, in contrast to Phylo-NN. Additionally, Phylo-Diffusion allows for perturbations in the embedding space of generative models in biologically meaningful ways inspired by gene knockout and gene editing/swapping experiments, going beyond the capabilities of Phylo-NN.

We also propose two novel experiments for analyzing evolutionary traits by perturbing the embedding space of Phylo-Diffusion and observing changes in the features of generated images, akin to biological experiments involving genetic perturbations. First, we introduce Trait Masking, where one or more levels of information in HIER-Embed are masked out with noise to study the disappearance of traits inherited by species at those levels. This is inspired by gene knockout experiments [10], wherein one or more genes are deactivated or \"knocked out\" to investigate the gene's function, particularly its impact on the traits of the organism. Second, we introduce Trait Swapping, where a certain level of HIER-Embed in a reference species is swapped with the embedding of a sibling node at the same level, similar in spirit to gene editing/swapping experiments made possible by the CRISPR technology [22].

Our proposed experiments of trait masking and swapping can also be viewed as novel image-based counterparts to genetic experiments, which traditionally take years.

While Phylo-NN shares several similarities with our proposed framework, Phylo-Diffusion, in terms of motivations and problem formulations, there are also prominent differences. The primary goal of Phylo-NN is specimen-level image reconstruction, whereas Phylo-Diffusion considers a different goal of controlling image generation at the species-level. As a result, Phylo-NN learns a unique Imageome sequence for every organism, enabling us to study the variability in individuals from the same species and the analysis of similarity in Imageome segments learned at shared ancestry levels. On the other hand, Phylo-Diffusion learns a unique embedding for every species and ancestor node in the tree of life, which serves as input conditions to generate distributions of synthetic images. Phylo-Diffusion thus uses hard constraints to ensure that all species with a common ancestor learn the exact same embeddings at their shared ancestry levels, making it easy to analyze trait commonalities and variations across groups of species, in contrast to Phylo-NN. Additionally, Phylo-Diffusion allows for perturbations in the embedding space of generative models in biologically meaningful ways inspired by gene knockout and gene editing/swapping experiments, going beyond the capabilities of Phylo-NN.

A central problem in biology is to understand how organisms evolve and adapt to their environment by acquiring variations in the observable characteristics or traits of species across the tree of life.

Every species in the tree of life (phylogenetic tree) is encoded to a HIERarchical Embedding (HIER-Embed) comprising of four vectors (one for each phylogenetic level), which is used to condition a latent diffusion model to generate synthetic images of the species.

Our knowledge of species evolution is commonly represented in a graphical form as the "tree of life" (also referred to as the phylogenetic tree [14], see Figure 1), illustrating the evolutionary history of species (leaf nodes) and their common ancestors (internal nodes). Discovering traits that are heritable across the tree of life, termed evolutionary traits, is important for a variety of biological tasks such as tracing the evolutionary timing of trait variations common to a group of species and analyzing their genetic underpinnings through gene-knockout or gene-editing/swapping (e.g., CRISPR [22]) experiments. However, quantifying trait variations across large groups of species is labor-intensive and time-consuming, as it relies on expert visual attention and subjective definitions [28], hindering rapid scientific advancement [19]. + +The growing deluge of large-scale image repositories in biology [9, 30, 31] presents a unique opportunity for machine learning (ML) methods to accelerate the discovery of evolutionary traits automatically from images. In particular, with recent developments in generative modeling such as latent diffusion models (LDMs) [26], we are witnessing rapid improvements in our ability to control the generation of high-quality images based on input conditioning of text or image prompts. This is facilitating breakthroughs in a variety of commercial use-cases of computer vision where we can analyze how changes in the input prompts affect variations in the generated images [7, 27, 34]. We ask the question: can we leverage LDMs to control the generation of biological images of organisms conditioned on the position of a species in the tree of life? In other words, can we encode the structure of evolutionary relationships among species and their ancestors as input conditions in LDMs? This can help us analyze trait variations in generated images across different branches in the phylogenetic tree, revealing novel insights into the biological mechanisms of species evolution. + +Toward this goal, we introduce Phylo-Diffusion, a novel framework for discovering evolutionary traits of species from images by conditioning diffusion models with phylogenetic knowledge (see Figure 1). One of the core innovations of Phylo-Diffusion is a novel Hierarchical Embedding (HIER-Embed) strategy that encodes evolutionary information of every species as a sequence of four vectors, one for each discretized level of ancestry in the tree of life (covering different evolutionary periods). We also propose two novel experiments for analyzing evolutionary traits by perturbing the embedding space of Phylo-Diffusion and observing changes in the features of generated images, akin to biological experiments involving genetic perturbations. First, we introduce Trait Masking, where one or more levels of information in HIER-Embed are masked out with noise to study the disappearance of traits inherited by species at those levels. This is inspired by gene knockout experiments [10], wherein one or more genes are deactivated or "knocked out" to investigate the gene's function, particularly its impact on the traits of the organism. Second, we introduce Trait Swapping, where a certain level of HIER-Embed in a reference species is swapped with the embedding of a sibling node at the same level, similar in spirit to gene editing/swapping experiments made possible by the CRISPR technology [22]. The goal of trait swapping is to visualize trait differences at every branching point in the tree of life that results in the diversification of species during evolution. + +Here are the main contributions of this paper. Our work represents a novel methodological advance in the emerging field of knowledge-guided machine learning (KGML) [15-17] to structure the embedding space of generative models using tree-based knowledge. Our work also opens a new chapter of research in evolutionary biology by using generative models to visualize evolutionary changes directly from images, which can serve a variety of biological use-cases. For example, Phylo-Diffusion can help biologists automate the discovery of synapomorphies, which are distinctive traits that emerge on specific evolutionary branches and are crucial for systematics and classification [33]. Our proposed experiments of trait masking and swapping can also be viewed as novel image-based counterparts to genetic experiments, which traditionally take years. Our work thus enables biologists to rapidly analyze the impacts of genetic perturbations on particular branches of the phylogenetic tree—a grand challenge in developmental biology [5, 20]. We empirically demonstrate the usefulness of Phylo-Diffusion in capturing meaningful trait changes upon perturbing its embedding for fishes and birds, generating novel hypotheses of their evolution. + +# 2 Related Works and Background + +Interpretable ML: Discovering evolutionary traits from images requires the identification and interpretation of fine-grained features in images that define and differentiate species. Several methodologies have recently been developed in the field of interpretable ML for localizing image regions that contain discriminatory information of classes, including ProtoPNet [3], PIP-Net [21] and INTR [23]. Despite their effectiveness and applicability across a wide range of applications, + +these methods are not directly suited for our target application of discovering evolutionary traits for two primary reasons. First, they are not designed to incorporate structured biological knowledge (e.g., knowledge of the tree of life) in the learning of interpretable features, and thus are unable to provide biologically meaningful explanations of feature differences across groups of species in the phylogenetic tree, which is key to discovering evolutionary traits. Second, since most methods in interpretable ML are designed for the task of classification, it is non-trivial to integrate them in generative modeling frameworks to produce synthetic images with controlled perturbations in the embedding space similar to gene knockout and gene editing/swapping experiments, in contrast to our proposed experiments in Phylo-Diffusion. + +Phylogeny-guided Neural Networks (Phylo-NN): A recent work closely aligned with our goal of discovering evolutionary traits directly from images is Phylo-NN [6]. Phylo-NN uses an encoder-decoder architecture to represent images of organisms as structured sequences of feature vectors termed "Imageomes", where different segments of Imageomes capture evolutionary information from varying levels of ancestry in the phylogenetic tree. While Phylo-NN shares several similarities with our proposed framework, Phylo-Diffusion, in terms of motivations and problem formulations, there are also prominent differences. The primary goal of Phylo-NN is specimen-level image reconstruction, whereas Phylo-Diffusion considers a different goal of controlling image generation at the species-level. As a result, Phylo-NN learns a unique Imageome sequence for every organism, enabling us to study the variability in individuals from the same species and the analysis of similarity in Imageome segments learned at shared ancestry levels. On the other hand, Phylo-Diffusion learns a unique embedding for every species and ancestor node in the tree of life, which serves as input conditions to generate distributions of synthetic images. Phylo-Diffusion thus uses hard constraints to ensure that all species with a common ancestor learn the exact same embeddings at their shared ancestry levels, making it easy to analyze trait commonalities and variations across groups of species, in contrast to Phylo-NN. Additionally, Phylo-Diffusion allows for perturbations in the embedding space of generative models in biologically meaningful ways inspired by gene knockout and gene editing/swapping experiments, going beyond the capabilities of Phylo-NN. We consider Phylo-NN as a baseline in our experiments to compare its performance with Phylo-Diffusion. + +Background on Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs): One of the state-of-the-art approaches in generative modeling is the framework of Diffusion Models [13], which learns a target distribution $p(x)$ by incrementally transforming a noisy sample $x$ generated from a Gaussian distribution $\mathcal{N}(0, I)$ into one that is more likely to be generated from $p(x)$ over a series of timesteps $T$ . While early frameworks of diffusion models (e.g., DDPM [13], DDIM [29] and ADM [4]) suffered from high computational costs and long training/inference times, Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs) [26] are able to address these concerns to a large extent by operating in a compressed latent space, significantly accelerating their + +ability to generate high-resolution images. The basic idea of LDMs is to train a separate auto-encoder to map an input image $x$ into its latent representation $z_0 = \mathcal{E}(x)$ using encoder $\mathcal{E}$ , which when fed to decoder $\mathcal{D}$ produces a reconstruction of the original image, $\tilde{x} = \mathcal{D}(\tilde{z}_0)$ . LDMs employ diffusion models in the compressed latent space $z$ by modeling the conditional probability of the reverse diffusion process as $\tilde{z}_{t - 1}\sim p_{\theta}(\tilde{z}_{t - 1}|\tilde{z}_t,y,t)$ , where $y$ is the input condition. This is implemented using a conditional denoising U-Net backbone $\epsilon_{\theta}(z_t,y,t)$ with learnable parameters $\theta$ . LDMs also pre-process $y$ using a domain-specific encoder $\mathbf{E} = \tau_{\phi}(y)$ trained alongside the U-Net backbone $\epsilon_{\theta}$ to project $y$ into the intermediate layers of $\epsilon_{\theta}$ using cross-attention mechanisms. The learnable parameters of LDMs are trained by minimizing the following loss function: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} (\theta , \phi) = \mathbb {E} _ {z _ {t}, y, t, \epsilon \sim \mathcal {N} (0, I)} \left[ \| \hat {\epsilon} _ {\theta} (z _ {t}, \tau_ {\phi} (y), t) - \epsilon \| ^ {2} \right] \tag {1} +$$ + +# 3 Proposed Framework of Phylo-Diffusion + +# 3.1 Hierarchical Embedding (HIER-Embed) + +Phylo-Diffusion uses a novel hierarchical embedding (HIER-Embed) strategy to structure the embedding $E$ of every species node using phylogenetic knowledge. As a first step, we consider a discretized version of the phylogenetic tree involving four ancestral levels, level-1 to level-4, where every level corresponds to a different range of time in the process of evolution. (See Appendix for a detailed characterization of the four ancestry levels for fish species used in this study.) Given a set of $n$ species, $S = \{S_1, S_2, S_3, \dots, S_n\}$ , let us represent the position of species $S_i \in S$ in the phylogenetic tree at the four ancestry levels as $\{S_i^1, S_i^2, S_i^3, S_i^4\}$ , where $S_i^l$ represents the ancestor node of $S_i$ at level- $l$ . Hence, if two species $S_i$ and $S_j$ share common ancestors till level- $k$ , then $S_i^l = S_j^l$ for $l = 1$ to $k$ . We define the level- $l$ embedding of species $S_i$ as: + +$$ +\mathbf {E} _ {i} ^ {l} = \operatorname {E m b e d} \left(S _ {i} ^ {l}\right) \in \mathbb {R} ^ {d ^ {\prime}}, \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\mathsf{Embed}(.)$ is a learnable embedding layer that provides a simple way to store and look-up the trained embeddings of every node. The combined hierarchical embedding (HIER-Embed) of species $S_{i}$ is obtained by concatenating its embeddings across all four levels as follows: + +$$ +\mathbf {E} _ {i} = \tau \left(S _ {i}\right) = \operatorname {C o n c a t} \left[ \begin{array}{l l l l} \mathbf {E} _ {i} ^ {1}, & \mathbf {E} _ {i} ^ {2}, & \mathbf {E} _ {i} ^ {3}, & \mathbf {E} _ {i} ^ {4} \end{array} \right] \in \mathbb {R} ^ {d}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\mathsf{Concat}[\cdot]$ denotes the concatenation operation and $y = S_{i}$ is the input condition used in LDMs. Note that different segments of $\mathbf{E}_i$ capture information about the traits of $S_{i}$ acquired at different time periods of evolution. In particular, we expect the embedding vectors learned at earlier ancestry levels of $\mathbf{E}_i$ to capture evolutionary traits of $S_{i}$ common to a broader group of species. On the other hand, embeddings learned at later ancestry levels are expected to be more specific to $S_{i}$ . In the following, we present two novel experiments for studying evolutionary traits by perturbing the embedding space learned by HIER-Embed. + +![](images/27f9875814b6deb4e6146edaf5b2ab31c55baa4bb0b4c635bf060fa3844297ed.jpg) +Level 4 + +![](images/9e8df9050181b5ea6b27dee889cb78eb95c434fd769074d562e96fa671150928.jpg) +Level 3 + +![](images/244263e2bce47e7c4a67b233af314e64a38b5aab625120b14bb69465c83ea1e4.jpg) +Level 2 + +![](images/3790e0d03aba831bb1ff06482408cd12b4cb23bbea81b65f6140dc8603751660.jpg) +Level 1 +(a) Trait Masking + +![](images/e94c2a52536989274c3902e11c7407b388c3c6bf4b1dba3f438e46dd7f6cccd0.jpg) +(b) Trait Swapping +Fig. 2: Schematic diagrams of the two proposed experiments for discovering evolutionary traits using Phylo-Diffusion. + +# 3.2 Proposed Experiment of Trait Masking + +The goal of this experiment is to verify if HIER-Embed is indeed able to capture hierarchical information in its level-embeddings such that masking information at lower levels of the embedding only erases traits acquired at later stages of evolution while retaining trait variations learned at earlier levels. In other words, we want to verify that the embeddings learned by HIER-Embed at level- $l$ capture information common to all descendant species that are part of the same subtree at level- $l$ . Figure 2a represents a schematic diagram of the process followed for trait masking. We start with the combined embedding containing information at all four levels, $[\mathbf{E}^1, \mathbf{E}^2, \mathbf{E}^3, \mathbf{E}^4]$ . To examine what is learned at the last level of this embedding, we mask it out by substituting it with Gaussian noise defined as $\mathbf{z}_{\mathrm{noise}} \sim \mathcal{N}(0, I) \in \mathbb{R}^{d'}$ . This results in the perturbed embedding $[\mathbf{E}^1, \mathbf{E}^2, \mathbf{E}^3, \mathbf{z}_{\mathrm{noise}}]$ , effectively eliminating the species-level (or $\mathbf{E}^4$ ) information. This masking should prompt the model to generate images that reflect only the information learned up to the third level while obscuring species-level details. We can extend this experiment by incrementally introducing noise at later levels, e.g., at both levels 3 & 4, and so on. + +Expected Changes in Probability Distributions: Note that when all four level embeddings are used, i.e. $[\mathbf{E}^1,\mathbf{E}^2,\mathbf{E}^3,\mathbf{E}^4]$ , the generated images are expected to be classified to a unique species $S_{i}$ . In terms of probability distributions, the probability of predicting species $S_{i}$ should be distinctly higher than the probability of predicting any other species. However, when we mask out certain level embeddings (i.e., mask out information at level 4), we are intentionally removing information necessary to distinguish species $S_{i}$ from its siblings species that are part of the same sub-tree (e.g., those that share a common ancestor at level 3). For this reason, we expect the generated images to show higher probabilities of being classified to any of the descendant species of the sub-tree, compared to the other species that are outside of the sub-tree. To quantify this behavior, we can measure the change in probability distributions for species within and + +

Since we expect probabilities to increase only for species within the sub-tree, the mean increase in probabilities for within-subtree species should be higher than that for out-tree species, as empirically demonstrated later in the Results Section. + +# 3.3 Proposed Experiment of Trait Swapping + +In trait swapping, we substitute the level- $l$ embedding of a source species with the level- $l$ embedding of a sibling subtree at an equivalent level. Figure 2b shows a schematic representation of the trait swapping experiment where the level-3 embedding (green) of a source species is replaced with its sibling level-3 embedding (yellow). Images generated for this perturbed embedding are expected to retain all of the traits of the source species except the swapped embedding, which should borrow traits from the sub-tree rooted at the sibling node. Visualizing trait differences in the generated images before and after trait swapping can help us understand the evolutionary traits that branched at a certain level (e.g., those leading to the diversification of green and yellow sub-trees at level-3 in the example phylogeny of Figure 2b). In terms of the probability distribution, similar to trait masking, we expect to see a drop in the probabilities of the source species (pink), and simultaneously, we expect an increase in probabilities for all the descendant species in subtree at node yellow, i.e. red and purple. + +# 4 Evaluation Setup + +Datasets: We use a collection of fish images as our primary dataset for evaluation.

We obtained the phylogenetic tree of fish species from opentree [2] python package (see Appendix for details on the phylogenetic tree). The raw museum images were pre-processed and resized to $256 \times 256$ pixels and the dataset was partitioned into training and validation sets, following a 75-25 split. We provide additional results on the CUB-200-2011 dataset [32] of bird species in the Appendix. + +Baselines of Conditioning Mechanisms: (1) Class Conditional: One of the simplest ways of encoding information about a species class is to map class labels $y \in [1, N_c]$ to a fixed $d$ -dimensional embedding vector $e \in \mathbb{R}^d$ using a trainable embedding layer. Note that the resulting embeddings are not designed to contain any hierarchical information in contrast to HIER-Embed. (2) Scientific Name Encoding: The scientific name of a species contains valuable biological information typically comprising of a combination of the genus name and species name. Since species that share their genus name are likely to contain common phylogenetic traits, we use them as a baseline for conditioning LDMs for discovering evolutionary traits. Specifically, we employ a pre-trained frozen CLIP model [25] to encode the scientific names of species into fixed $d$ -dimensional embeddings. + +**Training details:** We used $d' = 128$ as the embedding dimension for each level of HIER-Embed, which when concatenated across the four levels produces the combined hierarchical embedding of $d = 512$ dimensions. Phylo-Diffusion uses this $d$ -dimensional embedding to condition LDMs through cross-attention in denoising U-Net backbone and train LDMs without classifier-free guidance. We used VQGAN [8] as the backbone encoder-decoder to achieve the latent representations desired for LDMs with a downsampling factor of 4. All the models with different encoders are trained for 400k iterations, employing the best model checkpoint if convergence occurs early.

We also show the robustness of Phylo-Diffusion's results with varying numbers of phylogenetic levels and embedding dimensions in the Appendix. + +# 5.2 Classification Accuracy + +We used a separate model for species classification, specifically a ResNet-18 model [12] trained using the same training/validation split as Phylo-Diffusion. The primary objective behind building this classifier is to verify if images generated by Phylo-Diffusion contain sufficient discriminatory information to be classified as their correct species classes. Table 2 compares the classification F1-scores over 100 samples generated by baseline conditioning schemes. We can see that the synthetic images generated by Phylo-Diffusion achieve the highest F1 score $(82.21\%)$ , which is quite close to the F1 score of the base classifier on the original test images $(85\%)$ . We present additional results showing the generalizability of Phylo-Diffusion in classifying generated images to unseen species in the Appendix. + +# 5.3 Matching Embedding Distances with Phylogenetic Distances + +We investigate the quality of embeddings produced by baseline methods by comparing distances in the embedding space with the ground-truth (GT) phylogenetic distances computed from the tree of life, as illustrated in Figure 4. Ideally, we expect distances in the embedding space of species pairs to be reflective of their phylogenetic distances. For Class Conditional, we can see that the distance matrix does not show any alignment with the GT phylogenetic distance matrix. In the case of Scientific Name Encoding, the distance matrix exhibits notable similarities to the phylogenetic distances, thanks to the hierarchical nature of information contained in scientific names (i.e., genus-name & species-name). However, one limitation of this encoding is its inability to capture inter-genus similarities or differences. In contrast, HIER-Embed shows a distance matrix that closely aligns with the GT phylogenetic distance matrix, validating its ability to preserve evolutionary distances among species in its embedding space. + +![](images/633e8ff7b851ea0493b7393870bcde2a663279f6a145ebae21a9dba36445a0d9.jpg) +(a) GT Phylogenetic Distance + +![](images/325781d5c412299420f86da722d62740941d1b877b37ed4713e14c2f99b1eb54.jpg) +(b) Class Conditional Encoding + +![](images/5be7b5b0b3af092707ca0189ef1c6a57cc12701ac50ed1202fb23fa0483b212a.jpg) +(c) Scientific Name Encoding + +![](images/7962d0886b4ceca1dbc95e6a7bdee6107f6073a6274d40eb9d5d76ee5bbd8ed4.jpg) +(d) Hierarchical Embedding + +![](images/5ff1f217882da48abdc97ee5f0016eb7eeca74f4decbdf1b364c0341a65b375a.jpg) +Fig. 4: Comparing Cosine distances in the embedding space of species for varying conditioning mechanisms. + +![](images/f0b1b66eb3233ba7249e53ac2a37ea794941ddc239f2029cd0c80dbbb0ac5bcc.jpg) +Probability Distributions when all four levels are used (L1 to L4) + +![](images/d9ac131773aa815c64e762c5753568c59ec8ab13a9be403d4f4658043ddce955.jpg) +Probability Distributions after masking Level 4 +Fig. 5: Left: class probability distributions of images generated by using embeddings at all four levels for two species Lepomis gulosus and Lepomis macrochirus (shown in green) that are part of the same sub-tree till level 3. Right: class probability distributions of images generated by masking level 4 (descendant species that have common ancestry till level 3 are highlighted in green) + +# 5.4 Trait Masking Results + +To obtain classification probabilities or logits associated with generated images, we employ the classifier detailed in Section 5.2. For the masked embeddings of subtrees at level 3, defined as $[\mathbf{E}^1, \mathbf{E}^2, \mathbf{E}^3, \mathbf{z}_{\mathrm{noise}}]$ , we analyze logits of generated images and compare them with those generated without masking. Figure 5 demonstrates that for a specific subtree, in this case Lepomis, logits for species within the subtree are higher compared to those for species outside it. This outcome aligns with the expectation that Phylo-Diffusion, when provided with information up to Level 3, can capture overarching characteristics of all species within the given subtree. Additionally, Figure 5 presents probability distributions for species within the Lepomis subtree when the full set of hierarchical encodings $[\mathbf{E}^1, \mathbf{E}^2, \mathbf{E}^3, \mathbf{E}^4]$ is provided. It demonstrates that the probabilities are significantly higher for the targeted class, as intended for image generation. After masking, we observe that the generated images are very similar and capture common features of the Lepomis genus. For all our calculations and plots, + +we generate 100 images for each subtree and node. The appendix contains additional histograms that detail logit distributions across all different subtrees at each level, offering comprehensive insights into how the model discriminates and learns the hierarchical structure across different levels and nodes. + +Quantitative Evaluation of Probability Distributions: To quantitatively evaluate the ability of Phylo-Diffusion to capture hierarchical information and show desired changes in probability distributions after masking, we compute the following metrics. Let us denote the set of all species in the data as $S$ and for a given sub-tree at an internal node $i$ of level $l$ , let us denote the subset of descendant species as $S_{i}^{l} = \{S_{1}, S_{2}, \ldots, S_{n}\}$ . We first compute the reference probabilities $P_{ref}$ of every species before masking (i.e., by using all four level embeddings). Let us denote the probability of predicting a generated image using all four embeddings of a descendant species $S_{j} \in S_{i}^{l}$ into species class $S_{k}$ as $P_{S_{j}}(S_{k})$ . The reference probability of a species $S_{k}$ can then be given as: + +$$ +P _ {r e f} \left(S _ {k}\right) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \frac {1}{\left| S _ {i} ^ {l} \right| - 1} \sum_ {S _ {j} \in S _ {i} ^ {l} \backslash S _ {k}} P _ {S _ {j}} \left(S _ {k}\right), & \text {i f} S _ {k} \in S _ {i} ^ {l}, \\ \frac {1}{\left| S _ {i} ^ {l} \right|} \sum_ {S _ {j} \in S _ {i} ^ {l}} P _ {S _ {j}} \left(S _ {k}\right), & \text {i f} S _ {k} \notin S _ {i} ^ {l}. \end{array} \right. \tag {4} +$$ + +Note that when $S_{k}$ is part of the sub-tree, i.e., $S_{k} \in \mathcal{S}_{i}^{l}$ , $P_{ref}(S_{k})$ is computed by averaging over $|\mathcal{S}_i^l| - 1$ probability values since we exclude the case when $S_{k}$ is used to generate the images. On the other hand, when $S_{k}$ is outside of the sub-tree, i.e., $S_{k} \notin \mathcal{S}_{i}^{l}$ , we average over all $|\mathcal{S}_i^l|$ probability values. Given these reference probabilities values before masking, we can compute the change in probability of predicting species $S_{k}$ after masking as $P_{diff}(S_k) = P_{mask}(S_k) - P_{ref}(S_k)$ , where $P_{mask}(S_k)$ is the probability of predicting a generated image after masking to $S_{k}$ . We expect $P_{diff}$ to be larger for descendant species $S_{k} \in \mathcal{S}_{i}^{l}$ compared to species that are outside of the sub-tree because of the dispersion of probabilities in a sub-tree as a consequence of masking. We thus compute the average $P_{diff}$ for species that belong to subtree $\mathcal{S}_i^l$ as $P_{diff}^{sub}(i,l)$ and species that are outside the subtree $\mathcal{S}_i^l$ as $P_{diff}^{out}(i,l)$ . + +Figure 6 shows the box plot of $P_{diff}^{sub}$ and $P_{diff}^{out}$ across internal nodes at levels 2 and 3. We can see that species within the subtree exhibit a more pronounced increase in probabilities compared to those outside the subtree, aligning with our expectations. Notably, this trend is consistently observed across both Levels 2 & 3. More details of the class-wise probability distribution shifts for each level are provided in the appendix. The outcomes of these experiments affirm that Phylo-Diffusion effectively identifies unique features at Levels 2 and 3, and captures shared features or traits of any chosen subtree at the internal nodes of the phylogeny. + +# 5.5 Trait Swapping Results + +Figure 7 shows examples of trait swapping results enabled by Phylo-Diffusion. For the first example (first row of Figure 7a), we swap the level-2 encoding of + +![](images/0204aa4736fe80109ec42605e20c2a181a3e74254b7767a2aee5fbda80a2d008.jpg) +Fig. 6: Box plot for the mean of difference in probabilities for species within the subtree and out of subtree for level-3 and level-2. + +source species Noturus exilis with level-2 encoding of its sibling group Notropis/ Carassius. The goal here is to discover traits of Noturus exilis inherited at level 2 that differentiate it from other groups of species that branched out at this point of time in evolution. We can see that the generated images of the perturbed embedding (center) exhibit the absence of barbels (whiskers) highlighted in purple, while the caudal (or tail) fin is beginning to fork (or split), a trait adopted from Notropis (right). In contrast, other fins such as the dorsal, pelvic, and anal fins highlighted in green remain similar to those of the source species, Noturus exilis (left). This suggests that at level-2, Notropis and Noturus species diverged by developing differences in two distinct traits, barbels and forked caudal fins while keeping other traits intact. + +For the second example (Figure 7a, row 2), we swap level-2 information of Gambusia affinis (left) with that of Esox americanus (right). The generated images of the perturbed embedding (center) exhibit a more pointed head highlighted in purple, and a slimmer body shape resembling Esox americanus. Notably, the perturbed species retains discoloration at the bottom from the source species highlighted in green. Figure 7b presents probability distributions (or logits) of Gambusia affinis before and after trait swapping using a separately trained classifier. We observe a slight decrease in logits for Gambusia affinis and an increase in logits for Esox americanus, consistent with our expectations. In the third row of Figure 7a, we swap level-3 information of Lepomis gulosus (left) with that of Morone genus (right). The resulting images from the perturbed embedding (center) capture the horizontal line pattern characteristic of Morone genus, and the dorsal fin (purple circle) begins to split. All of these examples suggest novel scientific hypotheses about differences in evolutionary traits acquired by species at different ancestry levels, which can be validated by biologists in subsequent studies. Note that our experiments are most effective at levels near the species nodes, specifically at levels 2 & 3, since phylogenetic signal is known to diminish as we move toward the root of the tree [11,24]. Additional visualizations of trait swapping results are provided in the Appendix. + +Comparisons with Phylo-NN: Figure 8 compares trait swapping results of Phylo-Diffusion and Phylo-NN for the same set of example species. Figure 8a + +![](images/2c94c1b72614dd6f72f21fef33bd3b1a7f088ec4979dccd8028bd83214371466.jpg) +(a) Examples of traits swapping for species at level-2 (first two rows) and level-3 (last row). The order of species from top to bottom is Noturus exilis swapped with Notropis and Gambusia affinis swapped with Esox americanus.

In Phylo-NN, images generated by perturbing the Imageome sequences appear blurry (red circle), while Phylo-Diffusion effectively captures the splitting of dorsal fin (purple circle) and the horizontal stripe pattern of the Morone genus, while maintaining the fin structure of Lepomis gulosus (green circle). Similarly, Figure 8b compares trait swapping for Noturus miurus (top) with the target sub-tree of Notropis genus (bottom) at level-2. For Phylo-NN, the perturbed images are almost identical to the source species. However, Phylo-Diffusion shows visible trait differences such as the absence of barbels and the caudal (or tail) fin beginning to fork or split (purple circle), which are traits picked from the target sub-tree of Notropis genus. Note that we had considered the same target sub-tree in Figure 7a row 1 and + +![](images/218eb247eba9448e42cf32e70f13b6750e9b24620fc100a7d54322e268c705a8.jpg) +Fig. 8: Comparing Phylo-NN with Phylo-Diffusion for examples of trait swapping. + +observed similar trait differences in the generated images after perturbation, further validating the ability of Phylo-Diffusion to discover consistent evolutionary traits. We provide additional results comparing Phylo-Diffusion and Phylo-NN trait swapping results in the Appendix. + +# 6 Conclusions and Future Work + +In this work, we introduced Phylo-Diffusion, a novel framework for discovering evolutionary traits from images by structuring the embedding space of diffusion models using tree-based knowledge. In the future, our approach can be extended to work on other applications involving image data linked with phylogenies or pedigrees. Our work also has limitations that need to be addressed in future research. For example, while our current work is limited to discretized trees with a fixed number of levels, future works can focus on discovering evolutionary traits at every internal node of the phylogenetic tree with varying levels without performing any discretization. Future works can also attempt to capture convergent changes in evolution, i.e., changes that occur repeatedly in different branches of the tree, and perform ancestral state reconstruction with uncertainty estimates. + +# Acknowledgments + +This research is supported by National Science Foundation (NSF) awards for the HDR Imageomics Institute (OAC-2118240).

Discovering traits that are heritable across the tree of life, termed evolutionary traits, is important for a variety of biological tasks such as tracing the evolutionary timing of trait variations common to a group of species and analyzing their genetic underpinnings through gene-knockout or gene-editing/swapping (e.g., CRISPR [22]) experiments.

This is facilitating breakthroughs in a variety of commercial use-cases of computer vision where we can analyze how changes in the input prompts affect variations in the generated images [7, 27, 34]. We ask the question: can we leverage LDMs to control the generation of biological images of organisms conditioned on the position of a species in the tree of life? In other words, can we encode the structure of evolutionary relationships among species and their ancestors as input conditions in LDMs?

We also propose two novel experiments for analyzing evolutionary traits by perturbing the embedding space of Phylo-Diffusion and observing changes in the features of generated images, akin to biological experiments involving genetic perturbations. First, we introduce Trait Masking, where one or more levels of information in HIER-Embed are masked out with noise to study the disappearance of traits inherited by species at those levels. This is inspired by gene knockout experiments [10], wherein one or more genes are deactivated or \"knocked out\" to investigate the gene's function, particularly its impact on the traits of the organism. Second, we introduce Trait Swapping, where a certain level of HIER-Embed in a reference species is swapped with the embedding of a sibling node at the same level, similar in spirit to gene editing/swapping experiments made possible by the CRISPR technology [22].

Phylo-NN uses an encoder-decoder architecture to represent images of organisms as structured sequences of feature vectors termed \"Imageomes\", where different segments of Imageomes capture evolutionary information from varying levels of ancestry in the phylogenetic tree. While Phylo-NN shares several similarities with our proposed framework, Phylo-Diffusion, in terms of motivations and problem formulations, there are also prominent differences. The primary goal of Phylo-NN is specimen-level image reconstruction, whereas Phylo-Diffusion considers a different goal of controlling image generation at the species-level. As a result, Phylo-NN learns a unique Imageome sequence for every organism, enabling us to study the variability in individuals from the same species and the analysis of similarity in Imageome segments learned at shared ancestry levels. On the other hand, Phylo-Diffusion learns a unique embedding for every species and ancestor node in the tree of life, which serves as input conditions to generate distributions of synthetic images. Phylo-Diffusion thus uses hard constraints to ensure that all species with a common ancestor learn the exact same embeddings at their shared ancestry levels, making it easy to analyze trait commonalities and variations across groups of species, in contrast to Phylo-NN. Additionally, Phylo-Diffusion allows for perturbations in the embedding space of generative models in biologically meaningful ways inspired by gene knockout and gene editing/swapping experiments, going beyond the capabilities of Phylo-NN.

For Class Conditional, we can see that the distance matrix does not show any alignment with the GT phylogenetic distance matrix. In the case of Scientific Name Encoding, the distance matrix exhibits notable similarities to the phylogenetic distances, thanks to the hierarchical nature of information contained in scientific names (i.e., genus-name & species-name). However, one limitation of this encoding is its inability to capture inter-genus similarities or differences.

Our work also has limitations that need to be addressed in future research. For example, while our current work is limited to discretized trees with a fixed number of levels, future works can focus on discovering evolutionary traits at every internal node of the phylogenetic tree with varying levels without performing any discretization.

Unified anomaly detection (AD) is one of the most valuable challenges for anomaly detection, where one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes with the objective to detect anomalies in these classes. For such a challenging task, popular normalizing flow (NF) based AD methods may fall into a \"homogeneous mapping\" issue, where the NF-based AD models are biased to generate similar latent representations for both normal and abnormal features, and thereby lead to a high missing rate of anomalies. In this paper, we propose a novel Hierarchical Gaussian mixture normalizing flow modeling method for accomplishing unified Anomaly Detection, which we call HGAD. Our HGAD consists of two key components: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and intra-class mixed class centers learning. Compared to the previous NF-based AD methods, the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach can bring stronger representation capability to the latent space of normalizing flows. In this way, we can avoid mapping different class distributions into the same single Gaussian prior, thus effectively avoiding or mitigating the \"homogeneous mapping\" issue. We further indicate that the more distinguishable different class centers, the more conducive to avoiding the bias issue. Thus, we further propose a mutual information maximization loss for better structuring the latent feature space. We evaluate our method on four real-world AD benchmarks, where we can significantly improve the previous NF-based AD methods and also outperform the SOTA unified AD methods.

As shown in Fig. 1b, one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes, and the objective is to detect anomalies for all these classes without any fine-tuning. Nonetheless, solving such a task is quite challenging. Currently, there are two reconstruction-based AD methods for tackling the challenging unified AD task, UniAD [35] and PMAD [34]. But the reconstruction-based methods may fall into the \"identical shortcut reconstruction\" dilemma [35], where anomalies can also be well reconstructed, resulting in the failure of anomaly detection. UniAD and PMAD attempt to mask the adjacent or suspicious anomalies to avoid identical reconstruction. However, due to the diverse scale and shape of anomalies, the masking mechanism cannot completely avoid the abnormal information leakage during reconstruction, the risk of identical reconstruction is still existing. To this end, we consider designing the unified AD model from the normal data distribution learning perspective.

With the parameterized $p(Y)$ , we can derive the loss function for the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling as follows (the detailed derivation is in App. E):", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 676, + 787, + 797 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "equation", + "text": "\n$$\n\\mathcal {L} _ {g} = \\mathbb {E} _ {x \\sim p (X)} \\left[ - \\log \\underset {y} {\\mathrm {s u m e x p}} \\left(- \\frac {| | \\varphi_ {\\theta} (x) - \\mu_ {y} | | _ {2} ^ {2}}{2} + c _ {y}\\right) - \\log | \\det J | + \\frac {d}{2} \\log (2 \\pi) \\right] \\tag {6}\n$$\n", + "text_format": "latex", + "bbox": [ + 222, + 808, + 787, + 844 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "Hierarchical Gaussian Mixture Modeling for Unified Anomaly Detection", + "bbox": [ + 251, + 114, + 732, + 128 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "7", + "bbox": [ + 774, + 116, + 784, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "code", + "sub_type": "algorithm", + "code_caption": [ + "Algorithm 1 HGAD: Hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling for unified AD" + ], + "code_body": "Input: Input image $I\\in \\mathbb{R}^{H\\times W\\times 3}$ , Class $y\\in \\{1,\\dots ,Y\\}$ \n1: Initialization: Class centers $\\mu_y^k\\gets y + r,r\\in \\mathbb{R}^{d_k}\\sim \\mathcal{N}(0,\\mathbb{I})$ , Learnable vector $\\psi^k\\gets \\mathbf{0}\\in \\mathbb{R}^Y$ $\\psi_y^k\\gets \\mathbf{0}\\in \\mathbb{R}^M$ . $y\\in \\{1,\\ldots ,Y\\} ,k\\in \\{1,\\ldots ,K\\}$ \n2: Feature Extraction: $K$ -level feature maps, denoted as $X^{k},k\\in \\{1,\\dots ,K\\}$ \n3: for each level $k\\in \\{1,\\dots ,K\\}$ do \n4: Total loss $\\mathcal{L}_{all}\\gets 0$ \n5: for each feature $x\\in X^k$ do \n6: Obtain the latent representation: $\\varphi_{\\theta}(x)\\in \\mathbb{R}^{d_k}$ \n7: Calculate $c_{y} = \\log \\mathrm{softmax}_{y}(\\psi^{k})$ and $c_{i}^{y} = \\log \\mathrm{softmax}_{i}(\\psi_{y}^{k}),i\\in \\{1,\\dots ,M\\}$ \n8: Calculate inter-class loss: $\\mathcal{L}_g$ based on Eq. 6 \n9: Calculate mutual information maximization loss: $\\mathcal{L}_{mi}$ based on Eq. 8 \n10: Calculate entropy loss: $\\mathcal{L}_e$ based on Eq. 9 \n11: Calculate intra-class loss: $\\mathcal{L}_{in}$ based on Eq. 10 \n12: Calculate the overall loss: $\\mathcal{L} = \\lambda_1\\mathcal{L}_g + \\lambda_2\\mathcal{L}_{mi} + \\mathcal{L}_e + \\mathcal{L}_{in}$ \n13: Update $\\mathcal{L}_{all}\\gets \\mathcal{L}_{all} + \\mathcal{L}$ \n14: end for \n15: Obtain mean loss $\\mathcal{L}_{mean}^{k} = \\mathcal{L}_{all} / N$ $N$ is the total number of features \n16: end for \nOutput: Mean loss $\\mathcal{L}_{mean} = \\frac{1}{K}\\sum_{k = 1}^{K}\\mathcal{L}_{mean}^{k}$", + "bbox": [ + 215, + 164, + 787, + 435 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "where $c_{y}$ denotes logarithmic class weights and is defined as $c_{y} \\coloneqq \\log p(y) = \\log \\text{softmax}_y(\\psi)$ , and the subscript $y$ of the logsumexp operator denotes summing the exp values of all classes.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 482, + 787, + 527 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Mutual Information Maximization. Next, we further argue that the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling can only ensure the latent features are drawn together to the whole distribution (parameterized by $\\{\\mu_y,\\psi_y\\}_{y = 1}^Y$ ), where the $\\{p(y)\\}_{y = 1}^{Y}$ can control the contribution of different class centers to the log-likelihood estimation value $\\log p_{\\theta}(x)$ . This means that the loss function in Eq. 6 only has the drawing characteristic to make the latent features fit the multi-modal distribution, but without the repulsion property for separating among different classes, still resulting in a much weaker discriminative ability for different class features. As the class centers are randomly initialized, this may cause different class centers to collapse into the same center. To address this, we consider that the latent feature $z$ from class $y$ should be drawn close to its corresponding class center $\\mu_y$ as much as possible while far away from the other class centers. From the information theory perspective, this means that the mutual information $I(Y,Z)$ should be large enough. So, we propose a mutual information maximization loss to introduce the class repulsion property for increasing the class discrimination ability.

We can directly replace the $p(Z|y)$ in Eq. 5 and derive the corresponding loss function $\\mathcal{L}_g$ in Eq. 6 (see App. Eq. (7)).

After calculating the logarithm function, it is easy to cause the loss to be numerically ill-defined (NaN), making it fail to be optimized. To this end, we propose to decouple the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and the intra-class latent centers learning. This decoupling strategy is more conducive to learn class centers as we form a coarse-to-fine optimization process.

Unified anomaly detection (AD) is one of the most valuable challenges for anomaly detection, where one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes with the objective to detect anomalies in these classes. For such a challenging task, popular normalizing flow (NF) based AD methods may fall into a \"homogeneous mapping\" issue, where the NF-based AD models are biased to generate similar latent representations for both normal and abnormal features, and thereby lead to a high missing rate of anomalies. In this paper, we propose a novel Hierarchical Gaussian mixture normalizing flow modeling method for accomplishing unified Anomaly Detection, which we call HGAD. Our HGAD consists of two key components: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and intra-class mixed class centers learning. Compared to the previous NF-based AD methods, the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach can bring stronger representation capability to the latent space of normalizing flows. In this way, we can avoid mapping different class distributions into the same single Gaussian prior, thus effectively avoiding or mitigating the \"homogeneous mapping\" issue. We further indicate that the more distinguishable different class centers, the more conducive to avoiding the bias issue. Thus, we further propose a mutual information maximization loss for better structuring the latent feature space. We evaluate our method on four real-world AD benchmarks, where we can significantly improve the previous NF-based AD methods and also outperform the SOTA unified AD methods.

As shown in Fig. 1b, one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes, and the objective is to detect anomalies for all these classes without any fine-tuning. Nonetheless, solving such a task is quite challenging. Currently, there are two reconstruction-based AD methods for tackling the challenging unified AD task, UniAD [35] and PMAD [34]. But the reconstruction-based methods may fall into the \"identical shortcut reconstruction\" dilemma [35], where anomalies can also be well reconstructed, resulting in the failure of anomaly detection. UniAD and PMAD attempt to mask the adjacent or suspicious anomalies to avoid identical reconstruction. However, due to the diverse scale and shape of anomalies, the masking mechanism cannot completely avoid the abnormal information leakage during reconstruction, the risk of identical reconstruction is still existing. To this end, we consider designing the unified AD model from the normal data distribution learning perspective. The advantage is that we will no longer face the abnormal information leakage risk in principle, as our method is based on normal data distribution and radically avoids reconstruction.

Second, we argue that the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling can only ensure the features are drawn to the whole distribution but lacks inter-class repulsion, still resulting in a much weaker discriminative ability for different class features. This may cause different class centers to collapse into the same center. To further increase the inter-class discriminability, we propose a mutual information maximization loss to introduce the class repulsion property to the model for better structuring the latent feature space, where the class centers can be pushed away from each other.

Under the unified AD setting, our method can improve NF-based AD methods by a large margin, and also surpass the SOTA unified AD methods." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.75, + 0.405, + 0.767 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Acknowledgements" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.78, + 0.788, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Fund of China (62371295), the Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (2021SHZDZX0102), and the Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality (22DZ2229005)." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.253, + 0.115, + 0.732, + 0.129 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Hierarchical Gaussian Mixture Modeling for Unified Anomaly Detection" + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.769, + 0.117, + 0.785, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "15" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.145, + 0.323, + 0.16 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "References" + }, + { + "type": "ref_text", + "bbox": [ + 0.226, + 0.174, + 0.787, + 0.215 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1.

Unified anomaly detection (AD) is one of the most valuable challenges for anomaly detection, where one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes with the objective to detect anomalies in these classes. For such a challenging task, popular normalizing flow (NF) based AD methods may fall into a "homogeneous mapping" issue, where the NF-based AD models are biased to generate similar latent representations for both normal and abnormal features, and thereby lead to a high missing rate of anomalies. In this paper, we propose a novel Hierarchical Gaussian mixture normalizing flow modeling method for accomplishing unified Anomaly Detection, which we call HGAD. Our HGAD consists of two key components: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and intra-class mixed class centers learning. Compared to the previous NF-based AD methods, the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach can bring stronger representation capability to the latent space of normalizing flows. In this way, we can avoid mapping different class distributions into the same single Gaussian prior, thus effectively avoiding or mitigating the "homogeneous mapping" issue. We further indicate that the more distinguishable different class centers, the more conducive to avoiding the bias issue. Thus, we further propose a mutual information maximization loss for better structuring the latent feature space. We evaluate our method on four real-world AD benchmarks, where we can significantly improve the previous NF-based AD methods and also outperform the SOTA unified AD methods. The code will be available at https://github.com/xcyao00/HGAD. + +# 1 Introduction + +Anomaly detection has received increasingly wide attentions and applications in different scenarios, such as industrial defect detection [4, 10, 20, 32, 35, 36], video surveillance [1, 26], medical lesion detection [28, 39], and road anomaly + +detection [7, 30]. Considering the highly scarce anomalies and diverse normal classes, most previous AD studies have mainly devoted to unsupervised one-class learning, i.e., learning one specific AD model by only utilizing one-class normal samples and then detecting anomalies in this class4. However, such a one-for-one paradigm would require more human labor, time, and computation costs when training and testing on many product categories, and also underperform when the one normal class has large intra-class diversity. + +![](images/5133996a6e9b92c297a5327bb3ab57765121da628fa5d7ef01f7ccdc0a2bab83.jpg) +Fig. 1: Anomaly detection task settings. We aim to implement one unified AD model (b). (c) Mapping all input features to the same latent class center may induce the "homogeneous mapping" issue. (d) We propose a hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling method for more effectively capturing the complex multi-class distribution. + +In this work, we aim to tackle a more practical task: unified anomaly detection. As shown in Fig. 1b, one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes, and the objective is to detect anomalies for all these classes without any fine-tuning. Nonetheless, solving such a task is quite challenging. Currently, there are two reconstruction-based AD methods for tackling the challenging unified AD task, UniAD [35] and PMAD [34]. But the reconstruction-based methods may fall into the "identical shortcut reconstruction" dilemma [35], where anomalies can also be well reconstructed, resulting in the failure of anomaly detection. UniAD and PMAD attempt to mask the adjacent or suspicious anomalies to avoid identical reconstruction. However, due to the diverse scale and shape of anomalies, the masking mechanism cannot completely avoid the abnormal information leakage during reconstruction, the risk of identical reconstruction is still existing. To this end, we consider designing the unified AD model from the normal data distribution learning perspective. The advantage is that we will no longer face the abnormal information leakage risk in principle, as our method is based on normal data distribution and radically avoids reconstruction. Specifically, we employ normalizing flows (NF) to learn the normal data distribution [12]. + +However, we find that the NF-based AD methods perform unsatisfactorily when applied to the unified AD task. They usually fall into a "homogeneous mapping" issue (see Sec. 3.2), where the NF-based AD models are biased to generate large log-likelihoods for both normal and abnormal inputs (see Fig. 2b). + +We explain this issue as: the NF-based AD methods [12,36] employ the uni-modal Gaussian prior to learn the multi-class distribution (multi-modal). This can be seen as learning a mapping from a heterogeneous space to the latent homogeneous space. To learn the mapping well, the network may be prompted to take a bias to concentrate on the coarse-grained common characteristics (e.g., local pixel correlations) and suppress the fine-grained distinguishable characteristics (e.g., semantic content) among different class features [14]. Consequently, the network homogeneously maps different class features to the close latent embeddings. Thus, even anomalies can obtain large log-likelihoods and become less distinguishable. + +To address this issue, we first empirically confirm that mapping to multimodal latent distribution is effective to prevent the model from learning the bias (see Fig. 2c). Accordingly, we propose an inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling approach for NF-based AD networks to more effectively capture the complex multi-class distribution. Second, we argue that the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling can only ensure the features are drawn to the whole distribution but lacks inter-class repulsion, still resulting in a much weaker discriminative ability for different class features. This may cause different class centers to collapse into the same center. To further increase the inter-class discriminability, we propose a mutual information maximization loss to introduce the class repulsion property to the model for better structuring the latent feature space, where the class centers can be pushed away from each other. Third, we introduce an intra-class mixed class centers learning strategy that can urge the model to learn diverse normal patterns even within one class. Finally, we form a hierarchical Gaussian mixture normalizing flow modeling method for unified anomaly detection, which we call HGAD. In summary, we make the following main contributions: + +1. We propose a novel unified AD method: HGAD, where the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach can bring stronger representation capability to the latent space of normalizing flows for accomplishing the unified AD task. +2. We specifically propose three key designs: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling, mutual information maximization loss, and intra-class mixed class centers learning strategy. +3. Under the unified AD task, our method can dramatically improve the unified AD performance of the previous one-for-one NF-based AD methods (e.g., CFLOW-AD), boosting the AUROC from $89.0\% / 94.0\%$ to $98.4\% / 97.9\%$ , and also outperform the SOTA unified AD methods (e.g., UniAD). + +# 2 Related Work + +Anomaly Detection. 1) Reconstruction-based approaches are the most popular AD methods. These methods rely on the assumption that models trained by normal samples would fail in abnormal image regions. Many previous works attempt to train AutoEncoders [18, 37], Variational AutoEncoders [16] and GANs [2, 25] to reconstruct the input images. However, these methods face the "identical shortcut" problem [35]. 2) Embedding-based approaches recently show better AD performance by using ImageNet pre-trained networks as feature + +extractors [3, 8]. PaDiM [9] extract pre-trained features to model Multivariate Gaussian distribution for normal samples, then utilize Mahalanobis distance to measure the anomaly scores. PatchCore [20] extends on this line by utilizing locally aggregated features and introducing greedy coreset subsampling to form nominal feature banks. 3) Knowledge distillation assumes that the student trained to learn the teacher on normal samples could only regress normal features but fail in abnormal features [5]. Recent works mainly focus on feature pyramid [24, 31], reverse distillation [10], and asymmetric distillation [23]. 4) Unified AD approaches attempt to train a unified AD model to accomplish anomaly detection for multiple classes. UniAD [35], PMAD [34] and OmniAL [41] are three existing methods in this new direction. UniAD is a transformer-based reconstruction model with three improvements, it can perform well under the unified case by addressing the "identical shortcut" issue. PMAD is a MAE-based patch-level reconstruction model, which can learn a contextual inference relationship within one image rather than the class-dependent reconstruction mode. OmniAL is a unified CNN framework with anomaly synthesis, reconstruction and localization improvements. + +GMM in Anomaly Detection. Previous methods, DAGMM [38] and PEDENet [40], also utilize GMM for anomaly detection. However, our method is significantly different from these methods as follows: 1) Different Task. DAGMM is used for non-image data, and PEDENet is used for one-for-one image anomaly detection. Although they both use GMM, it's nontrivial to use them for unified anomaly detection. However, our method can achieve superiority in the unified AD task. 2) Different Approach. DAGMM and PEDENet both predict membership and then use the predicted membership and GMM modeling formulas to directly calculate the mixture component weights and the mean and variance of each mixture component. Our method is based on the learnable class centers and class weights. The way of ours is more beneficial for the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling while the way in DAGMM and PEDENet is difficult to achieve this. + +Normalizing Flows in Anomaly Detection. In anomaly detection, normalizing flows are employed to learn the normal data distribution [12,15,21,33,36], which maximize the log-likelihoods of normal samples during training. Rudolph et al. [21] first employ NFs for anomaly detection by estimating the distribution of pre-trained features. In CFLOW-AD [12], the authors further construct NFs on multi-scale feature maps to achieve anomaly localization. Recently, fully convolutional normalizing flows [22,36] have been proposed to improve the accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection. In BGAD [33], the authors propose a NF-based AD model to tackle the supervised AD task. In this paper, we mainly propose a novel NF-based AD model (HGAD) with three improvements to achieve much better unified AD performance. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Preliminary of Normalizing Flow Based Anomaly Detection + +In subsequent sections, upper case letters denote random variables (RVs) (e.g., $X$ ) and lower case letters denote their instances (e.g., $x$ ). The probability density + +function of a RV is written as $p(X)$ , and the probability value for one instance as $p_X(x)$ . The normalizing flow models [11, 13] can fit an arbitrary distribution $p(X)$ by a tractable latent base distribution with $p(Z)$ density and a bijective invertible mapping $\varphi : X \in \mathbb{R}^d \to Z \in \mathbb{R}^d$ . Then, according to the change of variable formula [29], the log-likelihood of any $x \in X$ can be estimated as: + +$$ +\log p _ {\theta} (x) = \log p _ {Z} (\varphi_ {\theta} (x)) + \log | \det J | \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\theta$ means the learnable model parameters, and we use $p_{\theta}(x)$ to denote the estimated probability value of feature $x$ by the model $\varphi_{\theta}$ . The $J = \bigtriangledown_{x}\varphi_{\theta}(x)$ is the Jacobian matrix of the bijective transformation $(z = \varphi_{\theta}(x)$ and $x = \varphi_{\theta}^{-1}(z))$ . The model parameters $\theta$ can be optimized by maximizing the log-likelihoods across the training distribution $p(X)$ . The loss function is defined as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {m} = \mathbb {E} _ {x \sim p (X)} [ - \log p _ {\theta} (x) ] \tag {2} +$$ + +In anomaly detection, the latent variables $Z$ for normal features are usually assumed to obey $\mathcal{N}(0,\mathbb{I})$ for simplicity [21]. By replacing $p_Z(z) = (2\pi)^{-\frac{d}{2}}\mathrm{e}^{-\frac{1}{2} z^T z},z = \varphi_\theta (x)$ in Eq. 1, the loss function in Eq. 2 can be written as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {m} = \mathbb {E} _ {x \sim p (X)} \left[ \frac {d}{2} \log (2 \pi) + \frac {1}{2} \varphi_ {\theta} (x) ^ {T} \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \log | \det J | \right] \tag {3} +$$ + +After training, the log-likelihoods of the input features can be exactly estimated by the trained normalizing flow models as $\log p_{\theta}(x) = -\frac{d}{2}\log (2\pi) - \frac{1}{2}\varphi_{\theta}(x)^T\varphi_{\theta}(x) + \log |\operatorname *{det}J|$ . Next, we can convert log-likelihoods to likelihoods via exponential function: $p_{\theta}(x) = \mathrm{e}^{\log p_{\theta}(x)}$ . As we maximize log-likelihoods for normal features in Eq. 2, the estimated likelihoods $p_{\theta}(x)$ can directly represent the normality (a larger value means more normal). Thus, we can convert likelihoods to anomaly scores by $s(x) = 1 - p_{\theta}(x)$ [33]. + +# 3.2 Revisiting Normalizing Flow Based Anomaly Detection Methods + +Under the unified AD task, we follow the NF-based anomaly detection paradigm [12, 21] and reproduce the FastFlow [36] to estimate log-likelihoods of the features extracted by a pre-trained backbone. We then convert the estimated log-likelihoods to anomaly scores and evaluate the AUROC metric every 10 epochs. As shown in Fig. 2a, after a period of training, the performance of the model drops severely while the losses continue going extremely small. Accordingly, the overall log-likelihoods become much large. We attribute this phenomenon to the "homogeneous mapping" issue, where the normalizing flows may map all inputs to much close latent variables and then present large log-likelihoods for both normal and abnormal features, thus failing to detect anomalies. This speculation is empirically verified by the visualization results in Fig. 2b (more results in App. Fig. 1), where the normal and abnormal log-likelihoods are highly overlapped. As we explained in Sec. 1, the phenomenon may come from that the model excessively suppresses the fine-grained distinguishable characteristics between + +normal and abnormal features. However, as shown in Fig. 2c and 2d, our unified NF-based AD method can more effectively avoid highly overlapped normal and abnormal log-likelihoods, indicating a slighter log-likelihoods bias problem. This encourages us to analyze as follows. + +![](images/d8432b1d813041cc94c1cb748ae985beabae22473988510fdf159f3d6c91ec0a.jpg) +Many-to-one NF-based AD +(a) +Fig. 2: Comparison between many-to-one and our unified NF-based AD methods on MVtecAD.

(b) shows that the many-to-one NF-based AD model (i.e., training the one-for-one AD method, FastFlow, on multiple classes simultaneously) may have an obvious normal-abnormal overlap under the unified case, while ours (d) can bring better normal-abnormal distinguishability. + +![](images/c9504c2611bceac5ad0d47db788cd44f52f3fed5c6b848e4f3fc77fc4099778d.jpg) +(b) + +![](images/9dcff98bcf3beb1be21514b3c90b01799556556a90a029d9b4e22518620a3392.jpg) +Unified NF-based AD +(c) + +![](images/f81addd6ddde4405245acf5e39df7de6d84dc533cced68cc9ad6ef8dbd69c6ef.jpg) +(d) + +Below, we denote normal features as $x_{n} \in \mathbb{R}^{d}$ and abnormal features as $x_{a} \in \mathbb{R}^{d}$ , where $d$ is the channel dimension. We provide a rough analysis using a simple one coupling layer normalizing flow model. When training, the forward affine coupling [11] can be calculated as: + +$$ +x _ {1}, x _ {2} = \operatorname {s p l i t} \left(x _ {n}\right); z _ {1} = x _ {1}, z _ {2} = x _ {2} \odot \exp (s \left(x _ {1}\right)) + t \left(x _ {1}\right); z = \operatorname {c a t} \left(z _ {1}, z _ {2}\right) \tag {4} +$$ + +where split and cat mean split and concatenate the feature maps along the channel dimension, $s(x_{1})$ and $t(x_{1})$ are transformation coefficients predicted by a learnable neural network [11]. With the maximum likelihood loss in Eq. 3 pushing all $z$ to fit $\mathcal{N}(0,\mathbb{I})$ , the model has no need to distinguish different class features. Thus, it is more likely to take a bias to predict all $s(\cdot)$ to be very small negative numbers $(\rightarrow -\infty)$ and $t(\cdot)$ close to zero. The impact is that the model could also fit $x_{a}$ to $\mathcal{N}(0,\mathbb{I})$ well with the bias, failing to detect anomalies. However, if we map different class features to different class centers, the model is harder to simply take a bias solution. Instead, $s(\cdot)$ and $t(\cdot)$ must be highly related to input features. Considering that $s(\cdot)$ and $t(\cdot)$ in the trained model are relevant to normal features, the model thus could not fit $x_{a}$ well. We think that the above rough analysis can also be applied to multiple layers. Because the output of one coupling layer will tend to 0 when $s(\cdot)$ and $t(\cdot)$ of the layer are biased. From Eq. 4, we can see that when the output of one coupling layer is close to 0, the output of the next layer will also tend to 0. Therefore, the output after multiple layers will tend to 0, the network is still biased. + +# 3.3 Hierarchical Gaussian Mixture Normalizing Flow Modeling + +Overview. As shown in Fig. 3, our HGAD is composed of a feature extractor, a normalizing flow model (details in App. C), and the hierarchical Gaussian + +mixture modeling. First, the features extracted by a fixed pre-trained backbone are sent into the normalizing flow model to transform into the latent embeddings. Then, we employ our hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling method to fit the latent embeddings during training. In Fig. 3, we only show features from one level, but we indeed extract multi-level feature maps and construct the NF model at each level. The pseudo-code of our HGAD is provided in Alg. 1. + +![](images/4b0c9179e9cc38a577a2d497ecba71aff9290eeda877d426c5eb056cb4f3138b.jpg) +Fig. 3: Model overview. The extracted feature vectors are sent into the normalizing flow model for transforming into latent embeddings. Following [12], we add positional embeddings (i.e., sinusoidal position encoding) to each invertible layer as they are effective for NF-based AD methods. Then, we employ our hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach to fit the latent embeddings, which can assist the model against learning the "homogeneous mapping". + +Inter-Class Gaussian Mixture Modeling. As discussed in Sec. 3.2, mapping different class features to different class centers can suffer a slighter log-likelihoods bias problem. To this end, to further better fit the complex multi-class normal distribution in the latent space, we propose the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling approach. Specifically, a Gaussian mixture model with class-dependent means $\mu_y$ and covariance matrices $\Sigma_y$ ( $y$ is used to distinguish different classes), is used as the prior distribution for the latent variables $Z$ : + +$$ +p _ {Z | Y} (z | y) = \mathcal {N} (z; \mu_ {y}, \Sigma_ {y}) \quad \text {a n d} \quad p _ {Z} (z) = \sum_ {y} p (y) \mathcal {N} (z; \mu_ {y}, \Sigma_ {y}) \tag {5} +$$ + +For simplicity, we also use unit matrix $\mathbb{I}$ to replace all the class-dependent covariance matrices $\Sigma_y$ . To urge the network to adaptively learn the class weights, we parameterize the class weights $p(Y)$ through a learnable vector $\psi$ , with $p(y) = \mathrm{softmax}_y(\psi)$ , where the subscript $y$ of the softmax operator denotes the class index of the calculated softmax value. The use of the softmax can ensure that $p(y)$ stays positive and sums to one. The $\psi$ can be initialized to 0. With the parameterized $p(Y)$ , we can derive the loss function for the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling as follows (the detailed derivation is in App. E): + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {g} = \mathbb {E} _ {x \sim p (X)} \left[ - \log \underset {y} {\mathrm {s u m e x p}} \left(- \frac {| | \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \mu_ {y} | | _ {2} ^ {2}}{2} + c _ {y}\right) - \log | \det J | + \frac {d}{2} \log (2 \pi) \right] \tag {6} +$$ + +Algorithm 1 HGAD: Hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling for unified AD +Input: Input image $I\in \mathbb{R}^{H\times W\times 3}$ , Class $y\in \{1,\dots ,Y\}$ +1: Initialization: Class centers $\mu_y^k\gets y + r,r\in \mathbb{R}^{d_k}\sim \mathcal{N}(0,\mathbb{I})$ , Learnable vector $\psi^k\gets \mathbf{0}\in \mathbb{R}^Y$ $\psi_y^k\gets \mathbf{0}\in \mathbb{R}^M$ . $y\in \{1,\ldots ,Y\} ,k\in \{1,\ldots ,K\}$ +2: Feature Extraction: $K$ -level feature maps, denoted as $X^{k},k\in \{1,\dots ,K\}$ +3: for each level $k\in \{1,\dots ,K\}$ do +4: Total loss $\mathcal{L}_{all}\gets 0$ +5: for each feature $x\in X^k$ do +6: Obtain the latent representation: $\varphi_{\theta}(x)\in \mathbb{R}^{d_k}$ +7: Calculate $c_{y} = \log \mathrm{softmax}_{y}(\psi^{k})$ and $c_{i}^{y} = \log \mathrm{softmax}_{i}(\psi_{y}^{k}),i\in \{1,\dots ,M\}$ +8: Calculate inter-class loss: $\mathcal{L}_g$ based on Eq. 6 +9: Calculate mutual information maximization loss: $\mathcal{L}_{mi}$ based on Eq. 8 +10: Calculate entropy loss: $\mathcal{L}_e$ based on Eq. 9 +11: Calculate intra-class loss: $\mathcal{L}_{in}$ based on Eq. 10 +12: Calculate the overall loss: $\mathcal{L} = \lambda_1\mathcal{L}_g + \lambda_2\mathcal{L}_{mi} + \mathcal{L}_e + \mathcal{L}_{in}$ +13: Update $\mathcal{L}_{all}\gets \mathcal{L}_{all} + \mathcal{L}$ +14: end for +15: Obtain mean loss $\mathcal{L}_{mean}^{k} = \mathcal{L}_{all} / N$ $N$ is the total number of features +16: end for +Output: Mean loss $\mathcal{L}_{mean} = \frac{1}{K}\sum_{k = 1}^{K}\mathcal{L}_{mean}^{k}$ + +where $c_{y}$ denotes logarithmic class weights and is defined as $c_{y} \coloneqq \log p(y) = \log \text{softmax}_y(\psi)$ , and the subscript $y$ of the logsumexp operator denotes summing the exp values of all classes. + +Mutual Information Maximization. Next, we further argue that the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling can only ensure the latent features are drawn together to the whole distribution (parameterized by $\{\mu_y,\psi_y\}_{y = 1}^Y$ ), where the $\{p(y)\}_{y = 1}^{Y}$ can control the contribution of different class centers to the log-likelihood estimation value $\log p_{\theta}(x)$ . This means that the loss function in Eq. 6 only has the drawing characteristic to make the latent features fit the multi-modal distribution, but without the repulsion property for separating among different classes, still resulting in a much weaker discriminative ability for different class features. As the class centers are randomly initialized, this may cause different class centers to collapse into the same center. To address this, we consider that the latent feature $z$ from class $y$ should be drawn close to its corresponding class center $\mu_y$ as much as possible while far away from the other class centers. From the information theory perspective, this means that the mutual information $I(Y,Z)$ should be large enough. So, we propose a mutual information maximization loss to introduce the class repulsion property for increasing the class discrimination ability. The loss function is defined as follows (the derivation is in App. E): + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {m i} = - \mathbb {E} _ {y \sim p (Y)} [ - \log p (y) ] - \mathbb {E} _ {(x, y) \sim p (X, Y)} \left[ \log \frac {p (y) p (\varphi_ {\theta} (x) | y)}{\sum_ {y ^ {\prime}} p (y ^ {\prime}) p (\varphi_ {\theta} (x) | y ^ {\prime})} \right] \quad (7) +$$ + +By replacing $p(\varphi_{\theta}(x)|y)$ with $\mathcal{N}(\varphi_{\theta}(x);\mu_y,\mathbb{I})$ in Eq. 7, we can derive the following practical loss format (the detailed derivation is in App. E): + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {m i} = - \mathbb {E} _ {(x, y) \sim p (X, Y)} \left[ \operatorname {l o g s o f t m a x} _ {y} \left(- \frac {\left| \left| \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \mu_ {y ^ {\prime}} \right| \right| _ {2} ^ {2}}{2} + c _ {y ^ {\prime}}\right) - c _ {y} \right] \tag {8} +$$ + +where $\mu_{y'}$ means all the other class centers except for $\mu_y$ , $c_{y'}$ means all the other logarithmic class weights except for $c_y$ , and the subscript $y$ of the logsoftmax denotes calculating logsoftmax value for class $y$ . Note that we also use this representation way for softmax calculation in the following sections (e.g., Eq. 9) + +In addition to the mutual information maximization loss, we propose that we can also introduce the class repulsion property by minimizing the inter-class entropy. We use the $-\left|\left|\varphi_{\theta}(x) - \mu_y\right|\right|_2^2 / 2$ as the class logits for class $y$ , and then define the entropy loss as follows (a standard entropy formula): + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {e} = \mathbb {E} _ {x \sim p (X)} \left[ \sum_ {y} - \operatorname {s o f t m a x} _ {y} (- | | \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \mu_ {y ^ {\prime}} | | _ {2} ^ {2} / 2) \cdot \log \operatorname {s o f t m a x} _ {y} (- | | \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \mu_ {y ^ {\prime}} | | _ {2} ^ {2} / 2) \right] \tag {9} +$$ + +Learning Intra-Class Mixed Class Centers. In real-world scenarios, even one object class may contain diverse normal patterns. Thus, to better model intra-class distribution, we further extend the Gaussian prior $p(Z|y) = \mathcal{N}(\mu_y,\Sigma_y)$ to mixture Gaussian prior $p(Z|y) = \sum_{i = 1}^{M}p_{i}(y)\mathcal{N}(\mu_{i}^{y},\Sigma_{i}^{y})$ , where $M$ is the number of intra-class latent centers. We can directly replace the $p(Z|y)$ in Eq. 5 and derive the corresponding loss function $\mathcal{L}_g$ in Eq. 6 (see App. Eq. (7)). However, the initial latent features $Z$ usually have large distances with the intra-class centers $\{\mu_i^y\}_{i = 1}^M$ , this will cause the $p(z|y),z\in Z$ close to 0. After calculating the logarithm function, it is easy to cause the loss to be numerically ill-defined (NaN), making it fail to be optimized. To this end, we propose to decouple the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and the intra-class latent centers learning. This decoupling strategy is more conducive to learn class centers as we form a coarse-to-fine optimization process. Specifically, for each class $y$ , we learn a main class center $\mu_1^y$ and the delta vectors $\{\Delta \mu_i^y\}_{i = 1}^M (\Delta \mu_1^y$ is fixed to 0), which mean the offset values from the main center and are used to represent the other intra-class centers: $\mu_i^y = \{\mu_1^y +\Delta \mu_i^y\}_{i = 1}^M$ . Then, we can directly employ the Eq. 6 to optimize the main center $\mu_1^y$ . When learning the other intra-class centers, we detach the main center $\mu_1^y$ from the gradient graph and only optimize the delta vectors by the following loss function: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {i n} = \mathbb {E} _ {(x, y) \sim p (X, Y)} \left[ - \operatorname {l o g s u m e x p} _ {i} \left(- \frac {\left| \left| \varphi_ {\theta} (x) - \left(S G \left[ \mu_ {1} ^ {y} \right] + \Delta \mu_ {i} ^ {y}\right) \right| \right| _ {2} ^ {2}}{2} + c _ {i} ^ {y}\right) - \log | \det J | \right] \tag {10} +$$ + +where $SG[\cdot]$ means to stop gradient backpropagation, $c_i^y$ denotes logarithmic intra-class center weights and is defined as $c_i^y := \log p_i(y) = \log \text{softmax}_i(\psi_y)$ . Note that $\psi_y \in \mathbb{R}^M$ is specific to class $y$ , $\psi \in \mathbb{R}^Y$ is for the whole distribution. + +Overall Loss Function. The overall training loss function is the combination of the Eq. 6, Eq. 8, Eq. 9 and Eq. 10, as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \lambda_ {1} \mathcal {L} _ {g} + \lambda_ {2} \mathcal {L} _ {m i} + \mathcal {L} _ {e} + \mathcal {L} _ {i n} \tag {11} +$$ + +where the $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ are used to trade off the loss items and are set to 1 and 100 by default. The $\mathcal{L}_e$ and $\mathcal{L}_{in}$ are used as auxiliary losses, so we don't ablate weighting factors for them as it will result in too many combinational experiments. In App. A.1, we further explain the necessities and motivations that connect each other of the individual components in our method. + +# 3.4 Anomaly Scoring + +As shown in Alg. 1, we actually extract K-level feature maps and construct the NF model at each level. For each test input feature $x^{k}$ from level- $k$ , $k\in K$ , we can calculate its intra-class log-likelihood $\log p_{\theta}(x^k) = \log \mathrm{sumexp}_i(-||\varphi_\theta (x^k) - \mu_i^y ||_2^2 /2 + c_i^y) + \log |\operatorname *{det}J| - d / 2\log (2\pi)$ and inter-class negative entropy $nh(x^{k}) = \sum_{y}\mathrm{softmax}_{y}(-||\varphi_{\theta}(x^{k}) - \mu_{1}^{y^{\prime}}||_{2}^{2} / 2)\cdot \mathrm{logsoftmax}_{y}(-||\varphi_{\theta}(x^{k}) - \mu_{1}^{y^{\prime}}||_{2}^{2} / 2)$ . Note that $y$ in $c_i^y$ denotes which class $x^{k}$ belongs to, not whether $x^{k}$ is normal or abnormal. Next, we convert the log-likelihood to likelihood $p_{\theta}(x^{k}) = \mathrm{e}^{\log p_{\theta}(x^{k})}$ . Then, we upsample all $p_{\theta}(x^{k})$ in the level- $k$ to the input image resolution $(H\times W)$ using bilinear interpolation $P_{k} = b(p_{\theta}(x^{k}))\in \mathbb{R}^{H\times W}$ . Finally, we calculate anomaly score map $S_{l}$ by aggregating all upsampled likelihoods as $S_{l} = 1 - \sum_{k = 1}^{K}P_{k}$ (see Sec. 3.1). For the inter-class negative entropy, we also follow the above steps to convert to anomaly score map $S_{e}$ . Then the final anomaly score map is obtained by combining the two maps $S = S_{l}\odot S_{e}$ , where the $\odot$ is the element-wise multiplication. In this way, even if anomalies fall into the inter-class Gaussian mixture distribution, they are usually in the low-density regions among the interclass class centers. So, we can still ensure that anomalies are out-of-distribution through intra-class log-likelihoods (please see App. A.4 for more discussions). + +# 3.5 Further Discussions + +Explicitly Distinguishing Classes. Our method utilizes the class $y$ of each image, but it doesn't introduce any extra data collection cost compared to one-for-one AD models. The existing AD datasets are collected for one-for-one anomaly detection (i.e., we need to train a model for each class). Thus, the existing AD datasets need to be separated according to classes, with each class as a subdataset. Therefore, one-for-one AD methods also need to distinguish classes, as they require normal samples from the same class to train. Our method actually has the same supervision as these methods. The difference is that we explicitly distinguish classes but they don't explicitly distinguish classes. So, our method still follows the same data organization format as the one-for-one AD models. But the advantage of our unified AD method is that we can train one model for all classes, greatly reducing the resource costs of training and deploying. Moreover, our method only requires separating different classes and does not require pixel-level annotations. For real-world industrial applications, this doesn't incur extra data collection costs, as we usually consciously collect data according to different classes. In App. A.2, we summarize the training samples and the supervision information required by our method and other methods in detail. + +PMAD [34] uses class information, and both UniAD [35] and OmniAL [41] use extra information to simulate anomalies. Although we also use class information, our method can achieve superior results than these methods. Thus, we think that whether utilizing class information should not be a strict limitation to the unified AD modeling especially when it already exists. + +In App. A.3, we further provide more discussions with the "identical shortcut" issue and point out that the "homogeneous mapping" is not intrinsically equal to the "identical shortcut" issue. Compared to UniAD, our method is an effective exploration for unified anomaly detection in the direction of normalizing flow based anomaly detection. In App. A, we also further discuss the limitations, applications, effective guarantee, and complexity of our method. We also provide an information-theoretic view in App. F. + +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Datasets and Metrics + +Datasets. We extensively evaluate our approach on four real-world industrial AD datasets: MVTecAD [4], BTAD [17], MVTec3D-RGB [6], and VisA [42]. The detailed introduction to these datasets is provided in App. D. To more sufficiently evaluate the unified AD performance of different AD models, we combine these datasets to form a 40-class dataset, which we call Union dataset. + +Metrics. Following prior works [4, 5, 37], the standard metric in anomaly detection, AUROC, is used to evaluate the performance of AD methods. + +# 4.2 Main Results + +Setup. For each dataset, we train one unified model with images from different classes. We use Efficient-b6 [27] as the feature extractor. The parameters of the feature extractor are frozen during training. The layer numbers of the NF models are all 12. The number of inter-class centers is always equal to the number of classes in the dataset. The number of intra-class centers is set as 10 for all datasets (see ablation study in Sec. 4.3). We use the Adam [19] optimizer with weight decay $1\mathrm{e}^{-4}$ to train the model. The total training epochs are set as 100 and the batch size is 8 by default. The learning rate is $2\mathrm{e}^{-4}$ initially, and dropped by 0.1 after [48, 57, 88] epochs. The evaluation is run with 3 random seeds. + +Baselines. We compare our approach with one-for-one AD baselines including: PaDiM [9], MKD [24], and DRAEM [37], and SOTA unified AD methods: PMAD [34], UniAD [35], and OmniAL [41]. We also compare with the SOTA one-for-one NF-based AD methods: CFLOW [12] and FastFlow [36].

+ +one-for-one NF-based AD methods drop dramatically under the unified case. However, our HGAD outperforms all baselines under the unified case significantly. Compared with the one-for-one NF-based AD counterparts, we improve the unified AD performance from $91.8\%$ to $98.4\%$ and from $96.0\%$ to $97.9\%$ . We further indicate that our model has the same network architecture as CFLOW, and we only introduce multiple inter- and intra-class centers as extra learnable parameters. This means that our novel designs are the keys to improving the unified AD ability of the NF-based AD methods. Moreover, our HGAD also surpasses the SOTA unified AD methods, PMAD (by $3.9\%$ and $2.3\%$ ) and UniAD (by $1.9\%$ and $1.1\%$ ), demonstrating our superiority. Furthermore, the results on BTAD, MVTec3D-RGB, VisA, and Union dataset (see Tab. 2) also verify the superiority of our method, where we outperform UniAD by $0.9\%$ , $9.6\%$ , $4.3\%$ , and $6.6\%$ in anomaly detection. + +Table 2: Anomaly detection and localization results on BTAD, MVTec3D-RGB, VisA, and Union datasets. + +

+ +# 4.3 Ablation Studies + +Hierarchical Gaussian Mixture Modeling. 1) Tab. 3a verifies our confirmation that mapping to multiple class centers is effective. With the fixed multiple centers (FMC, which is only based on fixed multiple centers but without Gaussian mixture modeling), image-level and pixel-level AUROCs can be improved by $4.1\%$ and $1.8\%$ , respectively. By employing the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling to learn the latent multi-class distribution, the AUROCs can further be improved by $1.4\%$ and $0.9\%$ . 2) The effectiveness of Mutual information maximization (MIM) is proven in Tab. 3a, where adding MIM brings promotion by $1.8\%$ for detection. This shows that to better learn the complex multi-class distribution, it is necessary to endow the model class discrimination ability to avoid multiple centers collapsing into the same center. 3) Tab. 3a confirms the efficacy of intra-class mixed class centers learning. With the FMC as the baseline, + +introducing to learn intra-class mixed class centers could bring an increase of $1.6\%$ for detection and $1.0\%$ for localization, respectively. Finally, combining these, we form the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling method to achieve the best results. + +Number of Intra-Class Centers. We conduct experiments to investigate the influence of intra-class centers in each class. The results are shown in Tab. 3b. The best performance is achieved with a moderate number: 10 class centers. A larger class center number like 20 does not bring further promotion, which may be because the class centers are saturated and more class centers are harder to train. For other datasets, we also use 10 as the number of intra-class centers. + +Anomaly Criterion. Only taking the log-likelihood and the entropy as the anomaly criterion can achieve a good performance, while our associated criterion outperforms each criterion consistently. This illustrates that the associated anomaly scoring strategy is more conducive to guarantee that anomalies are recognized as out-of-distribution. + +Hyperparameters. We ablate the hyperparameters $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ in Tab. 3d. Note that the experiments in Tab. 3a, b, c, and e are conducted with $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ set to 1 and 10. The results in Tab. 3d show that the larger $\lambda_{2}$ can achieve better unified AD performance. The larger $\lambda_{2}$ can urge the network more focused on separating different class features into their corresponding class centers, indicating that the class discrimination ability is of vital significance to accomplish unified anomaly detection. + +Optimization Strategy. We found that simultaneously optimizing inter-class and intra-class centers by the beginning would bring instability. Thus, we employ a two-stage optimization strategy (see App. C for details). The strategy can better decouple the inter-class and intra-class learning processes, thereby bringing better results. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we focus on how to unify anomaly detection regarding multiple classes. For such a challenging task, popular normalizing flow based AD methods may fall into a "homogeneous mapping" issue. To address this, we propose a novel HGAD against learning the bias with three key improvements: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling, mutual information maximization, and intra-class mixed class centers learning strategy. Under the unified AD setting, our method can improve NF-based AD methods by a large margin, and also surpass the SOTA unified AD methods. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Fund of China (62371295), the Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (2021SHZDZX0102), and the Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality (22DZ2229005). + +# References + +1.

Unified anomaly detection (AD) is one of the most valuable challenges for anomaly detection, where one unified model is trained with normal samples from multiple classes with the objective to detect anomalies in these classes. For such a challenging task, popular normalizing flow (NF) based AD methods may fall into a \"homogeneous mapping\" issue, where the NF-based AD models are biased to generate similar latent representations for both normal and abnormal features, and thereby lead to a high missing rate of anomalies. In this paper, we propose a novel Hierarchical Gaussian mixture normalizing flow modeling method for accomplishing unified Anomaly Detection, which we call HGAD. Our HGAD consists of two key components: inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling and intra-class mixed class centers learning. Compared to the previous NF-based AD methods, the hierarchical Gaussian mixture modeling approach can bring stronger representation capability to the latent space of normalizing flows. In this way, we can avoid mapping different class distributions into the same single Gaussian prior, thus effectively avoiding or mitigating the \"homogeneous mapping\" issue. We further indicate that the more distinguishable different class centers, the more conducive to avoiding the bias issue.

But the reconstruction-based methods may fall into the \"identical shortcut reconstruction\" dilemma [35], where anomalies can also be well reconstructed, resulting in the failure of anomaly detection. UniAD and PMAD attempt to mask the adjacent or suspicious anomalies to avoid identical reconstruction. However, due to the diverse scale and shape of anomalies, the masking mechanism cannot completely avoid the abnormal information leakage during reconstruction, the risk of identical reconstruction is still existing. To this end, we consider designing the unified AD model from the normal data distribution learning perspective. The advantage is that we will no longer face the abnormal information leakage risk in principle, as our method is based on normal data distribution and radically avoids reconstruction.

Second, we argue that the inter-class Gaussian mixture modeling can only ensure the features are drawn to the whole distribution but lacks inter-class repulsion, still resulting in a much weaker discriminative ability for different class features. This may cause different class centers to collapse into the same center. To further increase the inter-class discriminability, we propose a mutual information maximization loss to introduce the class repulsion property to the model for better structuring the latent feature space, where the class centers can be pushed away from each other. Third, we introduce an intra-class mixed class centers learning strategy that can urge the model to learn diverse normal patterns even within one class.

As shown in Fig. 2a, after a period of training, the performance of the model drops severely while the losses continue going extremely small. Accordingly, the overall log-likelihoods become much large. We attribute this phenomenon to the \"homogeneous mapping\" issue, where the normalizing flows may map all inputs to much close latent variables and then present large log-likelihoods for both normal and abnormal features, thus failing to detect anomalies. This speculation is empirically verified by the visualization results in Fig. 2b (more results in App. Fig. 1), where the normal and abnormal log-likelihoods are highly overlapped.

Therefore, one-for-one AD methods also need to distinguish classes, as they require normal samples from the same class to train. Our method actually has the same supervision as these methods. The difference is that we explicitly distinguish classes but they don't explicitly distinguish classes. So, our method still follows the same data organization format as the one-for-one AD models. But the advantage of our unified AD method is that we can train one model for all classes, greatly reducing the resource costs of training and deploying. Moreover, our method only requires separating different classes and does not require pixel-level annotations.

Transformers have achieved the state-of-the-art performance on solving the inverse problem of Snapshot Compressive Imaging (SCI) for video, whose ill-posedness is rooted in the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing. However, previous Transformers lack an insight into the degradation and thus have limited performance and efficiency. In this work, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture without temporal aggregation in early layers and Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) as building block. HiSViT is built by multiple groups of Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN) with dense connections, each of which is conducted within a separate channel portions at a different scale, for multi-scale interactions and long-range modeling. By separating spatial operations from temporal ones, CSS-MSA introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames while saving computational overheads. GSM-FFN further enhances the locality via gated mechanism and factorized spatial-temporal convolutions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms previous methods by $>0.5$ dB with comparable or fewer parameters and complexity.

Similar to compressive sensing problems [15,40,48], the inverse problem of video SCI is to reconstruct multiple high-fidelity frames from the observed image. As demonstrated in Fig. 2 (a), multiple frames are first initialized from the observed image and known masks and then they are input to an optimization algorithm or a deep model for effective restoration. In this context, video SCI reconstruction can be viewed as a challenging video restoration task, like denoising, deblurring, etc. Actually, they are vastly different in data distribution. As depicted in Fig. 2 (b), input frames of video SCI reconstruction lose temporal correlations (i.e., motion dynamics) completely due to the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, differing from that input frames of a plain video restoration task are highly-related with clear frames even degraded. For video SCI reconstruction, informative clues concentrate on spatial dimensions as opposed to temporal dimension, referred to as information skewness.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 356, + 787, + 551 + ], + "page_idx": 1 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Video SCI reconstruction has been extensively studied under straight [11, 43, 44, 51], U-shaped [37, 47], recurrent [12, 13], unrolling [31, 34, 52, 53, 61], and plug-and-play [55, 57] architectures. From early convolutional models [11, 31, 34, 37, 47, 52, 53, 55, 57] to latest Transformer models [43, 44, 61], the performance gains are due in large part to advanced vision engines and they lack an insight into the information skewness. Due to the limited perception field and static kernel of convolution, CNN-based models have inherent shortcomings in capturing long-range dependencies and learning generalizable priors. Recently, Transformer-based models [43, 44, 61] have achieved the state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. As a core component of Transformer, Multi-head Self-Attention (MSA) mechanism is highly effective in capturing long-range dependencies by aggregating all tokens weighted by the similarity between them. However, vanilla Global MSA (G-MSA) [14] suffers from the quadratic computational complexity with respect to token numbers, thus being impractical for high-dimensional data, like video. To relieve computational loads, STFormer [44], a variant of Factorized MSA (F-MSA) [1, 2], applies 2D Windowed MSA (W-MSA) [27] on spatial dimensions and 1D G-MSA on temporal dimension in a separate and parallel manner to surpass CNN-based models.

To this end, we appeal for using 2D operator as the frame-wise shallow feature extractor. Towards building block, we propose an efficient Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) to tackle the mixed degradation of video SCI, powered by Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN). CSS-MSA, a spatial-then-temporal attention, separates spatial operations from temporal ones within a single attention layer. Such separation design leads to: $i$ ) computational efficiency; $ii$ ) an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames. The former is similar to previous F-MSA [1,2] by breaking the direct interactions between non-aligned tokens, located at both different frames and different spatial locations. The later is customized to harmonize with the information skewness of video SCI. Besides, spatial receptive field is designed to be windowed yet increasing along heads for efficient multi-scale representation learning and temporal receptive field is global considering the limited frames to be processed as demonstrated in Fig. 5 (d). GSM-FFN could strengthen the locality by introducing gated self-modulation and factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv) to regular FFN. Each HiSViT block is built by multiple groups of CSS-MSA and GSM-FFN with dense connections, each of which is conducted on a separate channel portions at a different scale.

Next, we compare it with mainstream attention mechanisms for video, including G-MSA [14], W-MSA [28], F-MSA [1, 2], and their variants. The computational complexity is summarized in Tab. 1. G-MSA and F-MSA suffer from the quadratic computational complexity towards spatial-temporal resolution $T \\times H \\times W$ and spatial resolution $H \\times W$ respectively. W-MSA has the linear complexity at the cost of limiting interactions within $t \\times h \\times w$ local windows. For long-range temporal dependencies, an variant is to relax 3D window $t \\times h \\times w$ into 2D window $h \\times w$ for video, referred to as Spatially-Windowed MSA (SW-MSA). A hybrid of F-MSA and W-MSA is to perform spatial windowed MSA and temporal global MSA in two separate attention layers, referred to as FW-MSA. Unlike FW-MSA, CSS-MSA attends to all spatial-temporal tokens with cross-scale interactions in a single attention layer and is equivalent to a joint spatial-temporal attention matrix in Fig. 6 (b).

Clearly, non-separability damages the performance while sacrificing the complexity reduction of factorized attentions [1, 2]. Cross-scale interactions lead to a performance gain and a complexity reduction. We further compare CSS-MSA with competitive MSAs for video SCI reconstruction in Tab. 6.

SW-MSA relaxes 3D window in W-MSA [28] into spatial 2D window for temporal global receptive field. Note that both FW-MSA and SW-MSA do not downsample key and value for cross-scale interactions.

Transformers have achieved the state-of-the-art performance on solving the inverse problem of Snapshot Compressive Imaging (SCI) for video, whose ill-posedness is rooted in the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing. However, previous Transformers lack an insight into the degradation and thus have limited performance and efficiency. In this work, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture without temporal aggregation in early layers and Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) as building block. HiSViT is built by multiple groups of Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN) with dense connections, each of which is conducted within a separate channel portions at a different scale, for multi-scale interactions and long-range modeling. By separating spatial operations from temporal ones, CSS-MSA introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames while saving computational overheads. GSM-FFN further enhances the locality via gated mechanism and factorized spatial-temporal convolutions.

Similar to compressive sensing problems [15,40,48], the inverse problem of video SCI is to reconstruct multiple high-fidelity frames from the observed image. As demonstrated in Fig. 2 (a), multiple frames are first initialized from the observed image and known masks and then they are input to an optimization algorithm or a deep model for effective restoration. In this context, video SCI reconstruction can be viewed as a challenging video restoration task, like denoising, deblurring, etc. Actually, they are vastly different in data distribution. As depicted in Fig. 2 (b), input frames of video SCI reconstruction lose temporal correlations (i.e., motion dynamics) completely due to the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, differing from that input frames of a plain video restoration task are highly-related with clear frames even degraded.

Due to the limited perception field and static kernel of convolution, CNN-based models have inherent shortcomings in capturing long-range dependencies and learning generalizable priors. Recently, Transformer-based models [43, 44, 61] have achieved the state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. As a core component of Transformer, Multi-head Self-Attention (MSA) mechanism is highly effective in capturing long-range dependencies by aggregating all tokens weighted by the similarity between them. However, vanilla Global MSA (G-MSA) [14] suffers from the quadratic computational complexity with respect to token numbers, thus being impractical for high-dimensional data, like video. To relieve computational loads, STFormer [44], a variant of Factorized MSA (F-MSA) [1, 2], applies 2D Windowed MSA (W-MSA) [27] on spatial dimensions and 1D G-MSA on temporal dimension in a separate and parallel manner to surpass CNN-based models.

Towards architecture, previous models generally apply stacked 3D convolutions to transform degraded frames into shallow features. In absence of motion dynamics, temporal interactions in early layers could exaggerate artifacts owing to error accumulation during propagation [6], leading to poor representations (see Fig. 3). To this end, we appeal for using 2D operator as the frame-wise shallow feature extractor. Towards building block, we propose an efficient Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) to tackle the mixed degradation of video SCI, powered by Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN). CSS-MSA, a spatial-then-temporal attention, separates spatial operations from temporal ones within a single attention layer. Such separation design leads to: \\( i \\)) computational efficiency; \\( ii \\)) an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames. The former is similar to previous F-MSA [1,2] by breaking the direct interactions between non-aligned tokens, located at both different frames and different spatial locations. The later is customized to harmonize with the information skewness of video SCI. Besides, spatial receptive field is designed to be windowed yet increasing along heads for efficient multi-scale representation learning and temporal receptive field is global considering the limited frames to be processed as demonstrated in Fig. 5 (d). GSM-FFN could strengthen the locality by introducing gated self-modulation and factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv) to regular FFN. Each HiSViT block is built by multiple groups of CSS-MSA and GSM-FFN with dense connections, each of which is conducted on a separate channel portions at a different scale.

Clearly, non-separability damages the performance while sacrificing the complexity reduction of factorized attentions [1, 2]. Cross-scale interactions lead to a performance gain and a complexity reduction. We further compare CSS-MSA with competitive MSAs for video SCI reconstruction in Tab. 6.

Transformers have achieved the state-of-the-art performance on solving the inverse problem of Snapshot Compressive Imaging (SCI) for video, whose ill-posedness is rooted in the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing. However, previous Transformers lack an insight into the degradation and thus have limited performance and efficiency. In this work, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture without temporal aggregation in early layers and Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) as building block. HiSViT is built by multiple groups of Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN) with dense connections, each of which is conducted within a separate channel portions at a different scale, for multi-scale interactions and long-range modeling. By separating spatial operations from temporal ones, CSS-MSA introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames while saving computational overheads. GSM-FFN further enhances the locality via gated mechanism and factorized spatial-temporal convolutions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms previous methods by $>0.5$ dB with comparable or fewer parameters and complexity.

Unlike typical expensive high-speed cameras, Snapshot Compressive Imaging (SCI) [16,17,20,29,32,39,46,56] multiplexes a sequence of video frames, each of which is optically modulated with temporally-varying masks, into a single-shot observation of a low-cost monochromatic camera for high speed and low storage.

+ +aliasing. Similar to compressive sensing problems [15,40,48], the inverse problem of video SCI is to reconstruct multiple high-fidelity frames from the observed image. As demonstrated in Fig. 2 (a), multiple frames are first initialized from the observed image and known masks and then they are input to an optimization algorithm or a deep model for effective restoration. In this context, video SCI reconstruction can be viewed as a challenging video restoration task, like denoising, deblurring, etc. Actually, they are vastly different in data distribution. As depicted in Fig. 2 (b), input frames of video SCI reconstruction lose temporal correlations (i.e., motion dynamics) completely due to the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, differing from that input frames of a plain video restoration task are highly-related with clear frames even degraded. For video SCI reconstruction, informative clues concentrate on spatial dimensions as opposed to temporal dimension, referred to as information skewness. + +Video SCI reconstruction has been extensively studied under straight [11, 43, 44, 51], U-shaped [37, 47], recurrent [12, 13], unrolling [31, 34, 52, 53, 61], and plug-and-play [55, 57] architectures. From early convolutional models [11, 31, 34, 37, 47, 52, 53, 55, 57] to latest Transformer models [43, 44, 61], the performance gains are due in large part to advanced vision engines and they lack an insight into the information skewness. Due to the limited perception field and static kernel of convolution, CNN-based models have inherent shortcomings in capturing long-range dependencies and learning generalizable priors. Recently, Transformer-based models [43, 44, 61] have achieved the state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. As a core component of Transformer, Multi-head Self-Attention (MSA) mechanism is highly effective in capturing long-range dependencies by aggregating all tokens weighted by the similarity between them. However, vanilla Global MSA (G-MSA) [14] suffers from the quadratic computational complexity with respect to token numbers, thus being impractical for high-dimensional data, like video. To relieve computational loads, STFormer [44], a variant of Factorized MSA (F-MSA) [1, 2], applies 2D Windowed MSA (W-MSA) [27] on spatial dimensions and 1D G-MSA on temporal dimension in a separate and parallel manner to surpass CNN-based models. By replacing spatial W-MSA of STFormer with 2D convolutions, EfficientSCI [43] further improves the performance with + +less computational loads. STFormer and EfficientSCI don't conduct MSA on video space directly, thus they are not real video Transformers. CTM-SCI [61] first applies 3D W-MSA [28] on video space in an unrolling architecture to get the latest result (36.52 dB) at the cost of extremely high computational loads (12.79 TMACs). By rethinking the information skewness and Transformers' gain, we point out the keys of video SCI reconstruction: $i$ ) spatial aggregation plays a more important role than temporal one, and $ii$ ) long-range spatial-temporal modeling is desired but usually at the expense of high computational complexity. + +In this work, we make several modifications on reconstruction architecture and Transformer block to fulfill the above requirements. Towards architecture, previous models generally apply stacked 3D convolutions to transform degraded frames into shallow features. In absence of motion dynamics, temporal interactions in early layers could exaggerate artifacts owing to error accumulation during propagation [6], leading to poor representations (see Fig. 3). To this end, we appeal for using 2D operator as the frame-wise shallow feature extractor. Towards building block, we propose an efficient Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) to tackle the mixed degradation of video SCI, powered by Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN). CSS-MSA, a spatial-then-temporal attention, separates spatial operations from temporal ones within a single attention layer. Such separation design leads to: $i$ ) computational efficiency; $ii$ ) an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames. The former is similar to previous F-MSA [1,2] by breaking the direct interactions between non-aligned tokens, located at both different frames and different spatial locations. The later is customized to harmonize with the information skewness of video SCI. Besides, spatial receptive field is designed to be windowed yet increasing along heads for efficient multi-scale representation learning and temporal receptive field is global considering the limited frames to be processed as demonstrated in Fig. 5 (d). GSM-FFN could strengthen the locality by introducing gated self-modulation and factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv) to regular FFN. Each HiSViT block is built by multiple groups of CSS-MSA and GSM-FFN with dense connections, each of which is conducted on a separate channel portions at a different scale. Consequently, HiSViT has the following virtues: multi-scale interactions, long-range spatial-temporal modeling, and computational efficiency. + +The contributions of this work are summarized as follows: + +- We first offer an insight on the mixed degradation of video SCI and reveal the resulting information skewness between spatial and temporal dimensions.

In recent years, deep learning approaches have extensively exploited on straight [11, 43, 44, 51], U-shaped [37, 47], recurrent [12, 13], unrolling [31, 34, 52, 53, 61], and plug-and-play [55, 57] architectures with significant performance gains over traditional optimization algorithms [26, 54, 58]. CNN-based models are impeded by the limited perception field and static kernel of convolution. Recently, Transformer-based models [43, 44, 61] have achieved SOTA performance. STFormer [44] captures spatial and temporal dependencies in parallel and separately with the combination of factorized attention [1, 2] and windowed attention [27]. By replacing spatial windowed attention of STFormer with 2D convolutions, EfficientSCI [43] further improve the performance with less computational loads. CTM-SCI [61] first applies 3D windowed attention [28] in video space to enjoy the joint spatial-temporal modelling but its performance gain is at the cost of extremely high complexity and parameters. By re-examining previous works, we observe that long-range spatial-temporal modeling is desired but the resulting high complexity is troublesome. + +Vision Transformers. Transformers [41] have exhibited extraordinary performance on natural language processing tasks [4, 19] and computer vision tasks [5, 7, 14, 50]. As a core of Transformer, vanilla attention suffers from the quadratic computational complexity towards token number and thus is impractical for large-scale dense prediction tasks. To this end, kinds of Transformer variants [27, 30, 45, 49, 59, 62] are proposed to decrease the complexity, among which Swin Transformer [27, 28] achieves a good trade-off between accuracy and efficiency by limiting attention calculations within local windows. Benefitting from long-range dependency and data dependency [35], Transformers have become the de-facto standard of image restoration tasks [8, 10, 23, 33, 38, 60]. Due to an additional temporal dimension, developing Transformer for video is more challenging. Existing video Transformers generally apply spatial (2D) attention under recurrent architecture [22, 24], joint spatial-temporal (3D) attention within local windows [28], or factorized spatial-temporal $(2\mathrm{D} + 1\mathrm{D})$ attention [1, 2]. All of them are workable but lack appropriate inductive biases from the mixed degradation of video SCI. + +# 3 Rethinking Video SCI Reconstruction + +# 3.1 Mathematical Model + +In video SCI paradigm, a grayscale video $\mathbf{V} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times T}$ is modulated by mask $\mathbf{M} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times T}$ and then temporally integrated into an observation $\mathbf{I} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W}$ by + +$$ +\boldsymbol {I} (x, y) = \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {M} (x, y, t) \odot \boldsymbol {V} (x, y, t) + \boldsymbol {\Theta} (x, y), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $(x,y,t)$ indexes one position in 3D video space, $\odot$ denotes the Hadamard (element-wise) product, and $\Theta$ is the measurement noise. Note that color channel is omitted for clarity. For hardware implementation, mask is often generated from a Bernoulli distribution with equal probability, i.e., $M\in \{0,1\}$ . + +![](images/eeb7a8b9105ec38f602f1e7b929dd0f613f0d9fc3448089ddb5abdc5d36ec29f.jpg) +(a) Video SCI pipeline + +![](images/efe4f5b0d4f574f7254f9a46aabf786428749ac1d2f494dd9cb911ea3163eb6f.jpg) +(b) Structural similarity map between clear frames and degraded frames +Fig. 2: Video SCI pipeline and its degradation. (a) involves the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, caused by modulation $(\odot)$ and multiplexing $(\Sigma)$ . (b) is the structural similarity map between degraded frames and clear frames. + +The inverse problem of video SCI is to reconstruct a high-fidelity estimate of $\mathbf{V}$ from the observed $\mathbf{I}$ . For dimensional consistency, a highly-degraded video $\bar{\mathbf{V}}$ is initialized from known $\mathbf{I}$ and $\mathbf{M}$ as input by + +$$ +\bar {\boldsymbol {V}} (x, y, t) = \boldsymbol {M} (x, y, t) \odot \bar {\boldsymbol {I}} (x, y), \quad \text {w h e r e} \quad \bar {\boldsymbol {I}} (x, y) = \boldsymbol {I} (x, y) \odot \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \boldsymbol {M} (x, y, t), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\varnothing$ denotes the element-wise division. The above 2D-to-3D projection is driven by the pseudoinverse in optimization theory [3,25]. $\bar{I} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W}$ is a single-frame coarse estimation of $V$ , whose moving region is blurred and masked but motionless region is closed to the ground truth. Eq. (2) implies that $\bar{V}$ loses the temporal correlations of $V$ completely (see the inputs in Fig. 3), whereas imposed by the temporal stamps of $M$ . A deep reconstruction model aims to learn a nonlinear map $\mathcal{D}$ from $\bar{V}$ to $V$ , namely $V = \mathcal{D}(\bar{V})$ . + +# 3.2 Degradation Analysis + +For the perspective of imaging in Eq. (1) and Fig. 2 (a), video SCI involves multiple degradations: spatial masking, temporal aliasing, and measurement noise. Note that in color video SCI case, demosaicing the observed image cannot recover the right color since optical masks collide with Bayer filter, thus color degradation must be considered. Among these degradations, the mixture of spatial masking and temporal aliasing is the root of ill-posedness. Fig. 2 (b) visualizes the structural similarity map between clear frames and degraded frames for video SCI reconstruction and a plain video restoration task. Clearly, the input frames of a plain video restoration task are temporally aligned with clear frames and still contains rich motion dynamics even degraded. For video SCI reconstruction, the input frames in Eq. (2) are the results of re-modulating an identical image $\bar{I}$ with non-semantic different masks $M$ and thus lose temporal correlations (motion dynamics) completely. As a result, informative clues concentrate spatial dimensions rather than temporal dimension, referred to as information skewness. + +Unfortunately, previous works have always overlooked the information skewness and follow general vision architectures and blocks, e.g., a recurrent or unrolling architecture with Swin Transformer block. Due to the information skewness, we observe that too early temporal aggregation is ineffective for temporal dealiasing as demonstrated in Fig. 3. Besides, previous video Transformers, powered by 3D windowed [28] or $2\mathrm{D} + 1\mathrm{D}$ factorized [1,2] attention, lack an appropriate inductive bias to harmonize with the information skewness. To this end, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture and Transformer block for video SCI reconstruction. + +![](images/1d23d1a0c5063b354e1398d0ecda672f610afda63c58ea63a647ef5de6a4260d.jpg) +Fig. 3: Visualization of shallow features extracted by 3D CNN in EfficientSCI [43] and RSTB (without temporal aggregation) in our model. Clearly, our frame-wise extraction can better retrieve the temporal correlations with fewer parameters (0.28 v.s. 1.12 M) and MACs (148.85 v.s. 241.79 G). + +# 4 Methodology + +# 4.1 Video SCI Reconstruction Architecture + +Fig. 4 depicts the proposed reconstruction architecture, mainly composed of $i)$ frame-wise feature extraction, $ii)$ spatial-temporal feature refinement, and $iii)$ feature-to-frame reconstruction. Considering that the feature refinement module generally needs extensive calculations, we propose the downsampling-refinement-upsampling pipeline to relieve computational loads. For the downsample layer, we use a $1 \times 3 \times 3$ convolution with a stride of $1 \times 2 \times 2$ followed by a non-linear activation to decrease the spatial resolution while increasing channels. For the upsample layer, we use the pixel-shuffle operator to recover the spatial resolution. + +Frame-wise Feature Extraction. Due to the loss of motion dynamics caused by the mixed degradation of video SCI, temporal interactions in early layers could exaggerate artifacts owing to error accumulation during propagation [6]. With this insight, we first consider the input frames as individual images to process in parallel within the feature extraction module. Inspired by the effectiveness of using Swin Transformer as the feature extractor [24], we use one Residual Swin Transformer Block (RSTB) [23] to replace stacked 3D convolutions widely used in previous SOTA models [11,43,44,52,61]. As visualized in Fig. 3, such displacement is more effective and efficient for temporal dealiaising. A clear performance gain is got from Tab. 4 in ablation study. Note that temporal correlations can only be roughly retrieved for simple dynamic scenes. Fine temporal dealiaising relies on the following module. + +![](images/77f3a8129a1d35df12cd653a81387c8070419a00273831a4f65050ab2f25c5e1.jpg) +Fig. 4: Illustration of the proposed video SCI reconstruction architecture. + +Spatial-Temporal Feature Refinement. The feature refinement module is built by stacked building blocks to refine the downsampled shallow features from the frame-wise feature extraction module. In this work, the building block is an efficient Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT), followed by a channel attention [18]. HiSViT is dually introduced in Sec. 4.2. + +Feature-to-Frame Reconstruction. The reconstruction module is responsible for generating high-fidelity video frames from the upsampled refined features and shallow features. Spatial-temporal aggregation or spatial-only aggregation is feasible for this module. Considering the sufficient spatial-temporal modeling of HiSViT, we use another RSTB for effective reconstruction. + +# 4.2 Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer + +To harmonize with the information skewness of video SCI, we propose a Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) as building block for efficient spatial-temporal modeling. As demonstrated in Fig. 5 (a), HisViT is a multibranch structure with dense connections along channel dimension and each branch involves a residual Cross-Scale Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN). CSS-MSA, a spatial-then-temporal attention, attends to all features (tokens) within local windows (across time) and the spatial attention is conducted between normal query and average-pooled key and value, where $\rho$ is the size of spatial average-pooling. GSM-FFN further strengthens the locality. As a result, HiSViT has a hierarchical receptive field from bottom ( $\rho = 4$ ) to top ( $\rho = 1$ ) to enable multi-scale interactions and long-range dependencies. + +Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention. As shown in Fig. 5 (b), CSS-MSA is powered by: $i$ ) separating spatial operations from temporal ones; $ii$ ) performing cross-scale spatial attention. Inspired by separable convolutions, we decompose regular attention [14, 28], which requires intensive interactions in 3D space, into a spatial widened attention followed by a temporal global attention within a single attention layer. Spatial attention is conducted between normal query and average-pooled key and value to capture different-frequency information ( $\rho = 1, 2, 4$ ) given that averaging is a low-pass filter [42]. + +![](images/c17f211e1b858f77b64a6a3add8d5bd44f955452c635b4be456d0a9095590763.jpg) + +![](images/a5fabd811c4b4ce780783d6399f093620fd9d120a2d6a4f0b05e3822f47490a6.jpg) + +![](images/5c9485d19edd532a518f11826d5722125b545b74527c21cc7b09129f25ec7afc.jpg) +Fig. 5: Illustration of HiSViT.

At a certain branch with $\rho$ , let $\mathbf{X} \in \mathbb{R}^{T \times H \times W \times d}$ be the input video feature. $\mathbf{X}$ are first partitioned into several non-overlapped patches $\mathbf{X}_i \in \mathbb{R}^{T \times \rho h \times \rho w \times d}$ , $i = 1, \dots, \frac{HW}{\rho^2 h w}$ according to spatial window $\rho h \times \rho w$ .

We adapt the shifted rectangle-window strategy [10] for spatial partition. + +Comparison with Mainstream MSAs. Essentially, CSS-MSA is a spatial-then-temporal attention, namely a spatial windowed attention followed by a temporal global attention within a single attention layer. Next, we compare it with mainstream attention mechanisms for video, including G-MSA [14], W-MSA [28], F-MSA [1, 2], and their variants. The computational complexity is summarized in Tab. 1. G-MSA and F-MSA suffer from the quadratic computational complexity towards spatial-temporal resolution $T \times H \times W$ and spatial resolution $H \times W$ respectively. W-MSA has the linear complexity at the cost of limiting interactions within $t \times h \times w$ local windows. For long-range temporal dependencies, an variant is to relax 3D window $t \times h \times w$ into 2D window $h \times w$ for video, referred to as Spatially-Windowed MSA (SW-MSA). A hybrid of F-MSA and W-MSA is to perform spatial windowed MSA and temporal global MSA in two separate attention layers, referred to as FW-MSA. Unlike FW-MSA, CSS-MSA attends to all spatial-temporal tokens with cross-scale interactions in a single attention layer and is equivalent to a joint spatial-temporal attention matrix in Fig. 6 (b). Compared with regular attention in Fig. 6 (a), the proposed CSS-MSA pays more attention to intraframe rather than interframe aggregation while keeping long-range spatial-temporal modeling ability. A quantitative comparison is given in Tab. 6 of ablation study. + +Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network. As another key component, regular FFN process the output from MSA layer with a simple residual structure, built by two linear projections and a nonlinear activation between them. Here, we propose GSM-FFN by making two fundamental modifications on FFN: $i$ ) Gated Self-Modulation (GSM) and $ii$ ) factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv). As depicted in Fig. 5 (c), given the input feature $\pmb{X}\in \mathbb{R}^{T\times H\times W\times C}$ from CSS-MSA layer, the output feature is computed by + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \boldsymbol {X} _ {1}, \boldsymbol {X} _ {2} = \operatorname {S p l i t} (\operatorname {G E L U} (\boldsymbol {X} \boldsymbol {W} _ {1})) \\ \boldsymbol {Y} = (\operatorname {S i g m o i d} (\boldsymbol {X} _ {1}) \odot \operatorname {S T C o n v} (\boldsymbol {X} _ {2})) \boldsymbol {W} _ {2}, \end{array} \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\pmb{W}_1\in \mathbb{R}^{C\times \lambda C}$ increases the channel number by $\lambda$ times, $\pmb{W}_2\in \mathbb{R}^{\frac{\lambda C}{2}\times C}$ regulates the channel number into $C$ , Split divides the channels into half, GELU is a non-linear activation function, and Sigmoid represent the sigmoid function. Inspired by [9, 21], STConv, a hybrid of 1D convolution, 2D convolution, and LeakyReLU, performs convolutional and non-linear operators in spatial and temporal dimensions separately as shown in the right of Fig. 5 (c). + +# 5 Experiments + +Model Setting. We use HiSViT in Fig. 5 as building block of the proposed reconstruction architecture in Fig. 4. In the frame-wise feature extraction and feature-to-frame reconstruction modules, the channel number of RSTB [23] is set to 128. In the feature refinement module, the channel number of three branches is set to 64, 64, 128 for $p = 1, 2, 4$ and the channel expansion factor of GSM-FFN is set to $\lambda = 2$ . To explore the scalability of HiSViT, we define two model settings: HiSViT $_9$ and HiSViT $_{13}$ , which involves 9 and 13 building blocks respectively. + +Experiment Setting. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments on six grayscale/color benchmark videos with the resolution of $8 \times 256 \times 256 / 8 \times 512 \times 512 \times 3$ pixels and on real captured grayscale videos [37] with the resolution of $10 \times 512 \times 512$ pixels. Following previous works, our models are trained in DAVIS2017 dataset [36] with the same data augmentation in [43,44]. We use MSE loss with Adam optimizer ( $\beta_{1} = 0.9$ , $\beta_{2} = 0.999$ ) on A100 GPUs. All models are pretrained on the resolution of $8 \times 128 \times 128(\times 3)$ with a $1 \times 10^{-4}$ learning ratio over 100 epochs and then fine-tuned on the resolution of $8 \times 256 \times 256(\times 3)$ with a $1 \times 10^{-5}$ learning ratio over 20 epochs. Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural SIMiliarity (SSIM) are used to measure the reconstruction fidelity. Multiply-ACcumulate operations (MACs) are used to measure the computational complexity. More model details and additional results are in the supplementary material. In all experiments, the best and second-best results of the evaluated methods are highlighted and underlined. + +# 5.1 Results on Grayscale Benchmark Videos + +We compare HiSViT $_9$ / HiSViT $_{13}$ with two representative optimization algorithms (GAP-TV [54], DeSCI [26]), two plug-and-play methods (PnP-FFDNet [55], PnP-FastDVDnet [57]), seven CNN-based methods (E2E-CNN [37], BIRNAT [13], GAP-net-Unet-S12 [34], MeteSCI [51], RevSCI [11], DUN-3DUnet [52], ELP-Unfolding [53]), three Transformer-based methods (STFormer [44], EfficientSCI [43], CTM-SCI [61]).

Previous competitive reconstruction models, including STFormer [44], EfficientSCI [43], CTM-SCI [61], always use 3D CNN for shallow feature extraction and feature-to-frame reconstruction and downsample the shallow features for the follow-up spatial-temporal aggregation. They overlook that the input frames lose temporal correlations completely and thus too early temporal interactions could exaggerate artifacts. To this end, we propose two modifications as shown in Fig. 4: $i$ ) use 2D RSTB to replace 3D CNN to disable temporal interactions, $ii$ ) build skip connection between the shallow features and the upsampled refined features. The ablation study is reported in Tab. 4, where $\mathsf{A} + \mathsf{B}(+\mathsf{Skip})$ architecture represents that A and B are used for shallow feature extraction and feature-to-frame reconstruction respectively (with Skip connection). By disabling temporal interactions, (b) and (c) lead to a clear performance gain over widely-used (a), agreeing with the visualization in Fig. 3. Except as shallow feature extractor, RSTB in (d) also show better performance in reconstructing high-fidelity frames than 3D CNN in (c). With skip connection in (e), the fusion of shallow features and upsampled refined features could avoid the information loss caused by early spatial downsampling. + +Improvements in MSA.

+ +case, CSS-MSA is equivalent to cross-scale SW-MSA that performs 2D windowed MSA between normal query and average-pooled key and value. As mentioned previously, separability introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention to spatial dimensions to harmonize with that informative clues concentrate on spatial dimensions instead of temporal dimension, namely the information skewness of video SCI. Clearly, non-separability damages the performance while sacrificing the complexity reduction of factorized attentions [1, 2]. Cross-scale interactions lead to a performance gain and a complexity reduction. We further compare CSS-MSA with competitive MSAs for video SCI reconstruction in Tab. 6. As previously analyzed in Tab. 1, G-MSA [14] and F-MSA [1, 2] are impractical due to their quadratic computational complexity. FW-MSA and SW-MSA are practical and they also are the sources of STFormer [44] and CTM-SCI [61] respectively. FW-MSA limits the spatial attention in TimeSformer [2] within local windows. SW-MSA relaxes 3D window in W-MSA [28] into spatial 2D window for temporal global receptive field. Note that both FW-MSA and SW-MSA do not downsample key and value for cross-scale interactions. Clearly, CSS-MSA outperforms them by a large margin for video SCI reconstruction. + +Improvements in FFN. The proposed GSM-FFN is powered by Gated Self-Modulation (GSM) and factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv) that performs spatial aggregation and temporal aggregation in parallel and separately to enhance the locality. Tab. 7 reports the ablation study on GSM-FFN. Without GSM, the channel expansion factor is set to 1 to relieve the computational loads and parameters of STConv. Clearly, GSM-FFN outperforms regular FFN by a large margin. After discarding GSM or replacing STConv with a 3D convolution, the resulting performance drops validate the superiority of GSM-FFN. + +# 6 Conclusion + +By analyzing the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, we are the first to reveal the information skewness of video SCI, namely informative clues concentrate on spatial dimensions. Previous works overlooks it and thus have the limited performance. To this end, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture and Transformer block, dubbed HiSViT, to harmonize with the information skewness. HiSViT captures long-range multi-scale spatial-temporal dependencies computationally efficiently. Extensive experiments on grayscale, color, and real data demonstrate that our method achieves SOTA performance. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (grant number 62271414), Zhejiang Provincial Distinguished Young Scientist Foundation (grant number LR23F010001), Zhejiang "Pioneer" and "Leading Goose" R&D Program (grant number 2024SDXHDX0006, 2024C03182), the Key Project of Westlake Institute for Optoelectronics (grant number 2023GD007), the 2023 International Sci-tech Cooperation Projects under the purview of the "Innovation Yongjiang 2035" Key R&D Program (grant number 2024Z126), Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (2021SHZDZX0102), and the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities. + +# References + +1.

Transformers have achieved the state-of-the-art performance on solving the inverse problem of Snapshot Compressive Imaging (SCI) for video, whose ill-posedness is rooted in the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing. However, previous Transformers lack an insight into the degradation and thus have limited performance and efficiency. In this work, we tailor an efficient reconstruction architecture without temporal aggregation in early layers and Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) as building block. HiSViT is built by multiple groups of Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN) with dense connections, each of which is conducted within a separate channel portions at a different scale, for multi-scale interactions and long-range modeling. By separating spatial operations from temporal ones, CSS-MSA introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention within frames instead of between frames while saving computational overheads. GSM-FFN further enhances the locality via gated mechanism and factorized spatial-temporal convolutions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms previous methods by " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 264, + 455, + 484 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": ">0.5" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 159, + 264, + 455, + 484 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " dB with comparable or fewer parameters and complexity.

Similar to compressive sensing problems [15,40,48], the inverse problem of video SCI is to reconstruct multiple high-fidelity frames from the observed image. As demonstrated in Fig. 2 (a), multiple frames are first initialized from the observed image and known masks and then they are input to an optimization algorithm or a deep model for effective restoration. In this context, video SCI reconstruction can be viewed as a challenging video restoration task, like denoising, deblurring, etc. Actually, they are vastly different in data distribution. As depicted in Fig. 2 (b), input frames of video SCI reconstruction lose temporal correlations (i.e., motion dynamics) completely due to the mixed degradation of spatial masking and temporal aliasing, differing from that input frames of a plain video restoration task are highly-related with clear frames even degraded.

From early convolutional models [11, 31, 34, 37, 47, 52, 53, 55, 57] to latest Transformer models [43, 44, 61], the performance gains are due in large part to advanced vision engines and they lack an insight into the information skewness. Due to the limited perception field and static kernel of convolution, CNN-based models have inherent shortcomings in capturing long-range dependencies and learning generalizable priors. Recently, Transformer-based models [43, 44, 61] have achieved the state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. As a core component of Transformer, Multi-head Self-Attention (MSA) mechanism is highly effective in capturing long-range dependencies by aggregating all tokens weighted by the similarity between them. However, vanilla Global MSA (G-MSA) [14] suffers from the quadratic computational complexity with respect to token numbers, thus being impractical for high-dimensional data, like video. To relieve computational loads, STFormer [44], a variant of Factorized MSA (F-MSA) [1, 2], applies 2D Windowed MSA (W-MSA) [27] on spatial dimensions and 1D G-MSA on temporal dimension in a separate and parallel manner to surpass CNN-based models.

Towards architecture, previous models generally apply stacked 3D convolutions to transform degraded frames into shallow features. In absence of motion dynamics, temporal interactions in early layers could exaggerate artifacts owing to error accumulation during propagation [6], leading to poor representations (see Fig. 3). To this end, we appeal for using 2D operator as the frame-wise shallow feature extractor. Towards building block, we propose an efficient Hierarchical Separable Video Transformer (HiSViT) to tackle the mixed degradation of video SCI, powered by Cross-Scale Separable Multi-head Self-Attention (CSS-MSA) and Gated Self-Modulated Feed-Forward Network (GSM-FFN).

The former is similar to previous F-MSA [1,2] by breaking the direct interactions between non-aligned tokens, located at both different frames and different spatial locations. The later is customized to harmonize with the information skewness of video SCI. Besides, spatial receptive field is designed to be windowed yet increasing along heads for efficient multi-scale representation learning and temporal receptive field is global considering the limited frames to be processed as demonstrated in Fig. 5 (d). GSM-FFN could strengthen the locality by introducing gated self-modulation and factorized Spatial-Temporal Convolution (STConv) to regular FFN. Each HiSViT block is built by multiple groups of CSS-MSA and GSM-FFN with dense connections, each of which is conducted on a separate channel portions at a different scale.

A hybrid of F-MSA and W-MSA is to perform spatial windowed MSA and temporal global MSA in two separate attention layers, referred to as FW-MSA. Unlike FW-MSA, CSS-MSA attends to all spatial-temporal tokens with cross-scale interactions in a single attention layer and is equivalent to a joint spatial-temporal attention matrix in Fig. 6 (b). Compared with regular attention in Fig. 6 (a), the proposed CSS-MSA pays more attention to intraframe rather than interframe aggregation while keeping long-range spatial-temporal modeling ability.

As mentioned previously, separability introduces an inductive bias of paying more attention to spatial dimensions to harmonize with that informative clues concentrate on spatial dimensions instead of temporal dimension, namely the information skewness of video SCI. Clearly, non-separability damages the performance while sacrificing the complexity reduction of factorized attentions [1, 2]. Cross-scale interactions lead to a performance gain and a complexity reduction. We further compare CSS-MSA with competitive MSAs for video SCI reconstruction in Tab. 6. As previously analyzed in Tab. 1, G-MSA [14] and F-MSA [1, 2] are impractical due to their quadratic computational complexity. FW-MSA and SW-MSA are practical and they also are the sources of STFormer [44] and CTM-SCI [61] respectively. FW-MSA limits the spatial attention in TimeSformer [2] within local windows. SW-MSA relaxes 3D window in W-MSA [28] into spatial 2D window for temporal global receptive field. Note that both FW-MSA and SW-MSA do not downsample key and value for cross-scale interactions.

Camera-based 3D semantic scene completion (SSC) is pivotal for predicting complicated 3D layouts with limited 2D image observations. The existing mainstream solutions generally leverage temporal information by roughly stacking history frames to supplement the current frame, such straightforward temporal modeling inevitably diminishes valid clues and increases learning difficulty. To address this problem, we present HTCL, a novel Hierarchical Temporal Context Learning paradigm for improving camera-based semantic scene completion. The primary innovation of this work involves decomposing temporal context learning into two hierarchical steps: (a) cross-frame affinity measurement and (b) affinity-based dynamic refinement. Firstly, to separate critical relevant context from redundant information, we introduce the pattern affinity with scale-aware isolation and multiple independent learners for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we adaptively refine the feature sampling locations based on initially identified locations with high affinity and their neighboring relevant regions.

Specifically, we first leverage epipolar homo-warping to explicitly align the temporal invariant feature representations and establish temporal feature volumes to fully maintain fine-grained context. Then, we introduce scale-aware isolation and incorporation of diverse independent learning in the cross-frame affinity measurement to facilitate better affinity distribution modeling in SSC. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we resort to investigating the critical locations with high affinities and the neighboring relevant context.

Camera-based 3D semantic scene completion (SSC) is pivotal for predicting complicated 3D layouts with limited 2D image observations. The existing mainstream solutions generally leverage temporal information by roughly stacking history frames to supplement the current frame, such straightforward temporal modeling inevitably diminishes valid clues and increases learning difficulty. To address this problem, we present HTCL, a novel Hierarchical Temporal Context Learning paradigm for improving camera-based semantic scene completion. The primary innovation of this work involves decomposing temporal context learning into two hierarchical steps: (a) cross-frame affinity measurement and (b) affinity-based dynamic refinement. Firstly, to separate critical relevant context from redundant information, we introduce the pattern affinity with scale-aware isolation and multiple independent learners for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we adaptively refine the feature sampling locations based on initially identified locations with high affinity and their neighboring relevant regions.

Specifically, we first leverage epipolar homo-warping to explicitly align the temporal invariant feature representations and establish temporal feature volumes to fully maintain fine-grained context.

TPVFormer [16] introduces a tri-perspective view to describe the fine-grained representation of a 3D scene. OccFormer [52] introduces a dual-path transformer network to process dense 3D features for semantic occupancy prediction.

Camera-based 3D semantic scene completion (SSC) is pivotal for predicting complicated 3D layouts with limited 2D image observations. The existing mainstream solutions generally leverage temporal information by roughly stacking history frames to supplement the current frame, such straightforward temporal modeling inevitably diminishes valid clues and increases learning difficulty. To address this problem, we present HTCL, a novel Hierarchical Temporal Context Learning paradigm for improving camera-based semantic scene completion. The primary innovation of this work involves decomposing temporal context learning into two hierarchical steps: (a) cross-frame affinity measurement and (b) affinity-based dynamic refinement. Firstly, to separate critical relevant context from redundant information, we introduce the pattern affinity with scale-aware isolation and multiple independent learners for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we adaptively refine the feature sampling locations based on initially identified locations with high affinity and their neighboring relevant regions. Our method ranks $1^{st}$ on the SemanticKITTI benchmark and even surpasses LiDAR-based methods in terms of mIoU on the OpenOccupancy benchmark.

This capability directly impacts the planning and obstacle avoidance functionalities of autonomous vehicles, thereby influencing their overall safety and efficiency. However, due to the limitations of real-world sensors such as restricted field of view and measurement noise, this task remains a challenging problem. 3D semantic scene completion (SSC) has been proposed to address the challenges by jointly inferring the geometry and semantics of the scenario from incomplete observations [7,14,16,22,34,35,47,51]. + +Given the inherent 3D nature, numerous semantic scene completion (SSC) solutions [14, 34, 35, 47, 51] rely on LiDAR as the primary technique for precise 3D location measurement. Although the LiDAR sensor provides accurate depth information, its deployment introduces a large overhead for both the cost and manual efforts. Therefore, it is necessary to explore an efficient approach for high-fidelity SSC with cost-effective devices. This motivation led to the investigation of camera-based solutions, which are characterized by superior deployment efficiency and the abundance of rich visual context [7, 16, 46, 52]. + +The early attempts in camera-based SSC methods [7,36,39] commonly rely solely on the current frame, which can only provide very limited observation to recover the 3D geometry and semantics. To enrich contextual information, the pioneering work VoxFormer-T [22] proposes to make use of temporal coherence by stacking multiple history frames as supplements to the current frame. Nevertheless, as depicted in Figure 1, this approach assumes that temporal features from different viewpoints are originally corresponded at the pixel level, + +thereby just using a straightforward aggregation. However, the shared semantic content undergoes uncertain positional changes across different perspectives. Therefore, directly integrating images from different timestamps may result in blurred predictive information. This ambiguity compromises the stability of semantic occupancy predictions and imposes difficulties on temporal modeling. + +To alleviate this issue, we propose a new Hierarchical Temporal Context Learning (HTCL) paradigm, which improves the temporal feature aggregation for accurate 3D semantic scene completion. HTCL takes RGB images from different timestamps to hierarchically infer the 3D semantic occupancy for fine-grained scene comprehension. As depicted in Figure 2 (a), our hierarchical temporal context modeling includes two sequential steps: (1) we explicitly measure the contextual pattern affinity between the current and historical frames, highlighting the most relevant patterns; (2) we adaptively refine the sampling locations based on the preliminary high-affinity locations and their nearby relevant context to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations. Specifically, we first leverage epipolar homo-warping to explicitly align the temporal invariant feature representations and establish temporal feature volumes to fully maintain fine-grained context. Then, we introduce scale-aware isolation and incorporation of diverse independent learning in the cross-frame affinity measurement to facilitate better affinity distribution modeling in SSC. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we resort to investigating the critical locations with high affinities and the neighboring relevant context. Technically, a multi-level deformable 3D block conditioned with the affinity weights is involved to adaptively refine the sampling locations. Finally, a weighted voxel cross-attention is introduced to aggregate the reliable temporal content. + +We conduct extensive experiments to validate the merits of our proposed HTCL. As shown in Figure 2(b), our proposed method achieves significant superiority over existing camera-based methods in terms of geometry (IoU) and semantics (mIoU). Remarkably, our camera-based approach outperforms state-of-the-art VoxFormer-T [22] on the SemanticKITTI benchmark and even surpasses LiDAR-based methods on the OpenOccupancy benchmark in terms of mIoU. Our main contributions are summarized as follows: + +- A temporal context learning paradigm with a hierarchical scheme to fully exploit dynamic and dependable 3D semantic scene completion. +- An affinity measurement strategy with scale-aware isolation and multiple independent learners for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling. +- An affinity-based dynamic refinement schedule to reassemble the temporal content and adaptively compensate for incomplete observations. +- Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance among all camera-based SSC methods on the SemanticKITTI and OpenOccupancy benchmarks. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 3D Semantic Scene Completion + +Semantic Scene Completion (SSC), also known as semantic occupancy prediction, is a dense 3D perception task that jointly addresses semantic segmentation + +and scene completion [2, 6]. Numerous previous works leverage LiDAR as the primary input to take advantage of the 3D geometrical information [14, 34, 51]. Due to the cost-effectiveness and portability, camera-based 3D SSC is recently gaining increasing attention [2, 6, 7, 9, 16, 20, 22, 34, 35, 38-40, 47, 49]. MonoScene [7] first proposes to infer geometry and semantics from a single RGB image with 2D-3D features projection. Inspired by this, a lot of the following works extend the domain of camera-based 3D scene perception [16, 19, 46, 52]. TPVFormer [16] introduces a tri-perspective view to describe the fine-grained representation of a 3D scene. OccFormer [52] introduces a dual-path transformer network to process dense 3D features for semantic occupancy prediction. However, these methods attempt to describe the complicated 3D scene from single-timestep images, which is ineffective for such an inherently ill-posed problem due to incomplete visual cues. In this paper, we advocate delving into reliable temporal content to dynamically aggregate semantic context and compensate for incomplete observations. + +# 2.2 Temporal Information Modeling in 3D Visual Perception + +The utilization of temporal information is recently highlighted in temporal 3D object detection [17,21,24-26,29,44,50,50] and video depth estimation [5,27,45] to enhance prediction performance. Temporal 3D object detection solutions focus on coarse-grained predictions at region-level [24,26], while video depth estimation methods [5,27] aim to establish matching correspondence from sequential video frames. Consequently, such strategies are insufficient for semantic scene completion, where fine-grained features are essential for dense semantic perception. VoxFormer-T [22] builds the first temporal pipeline for camera-based SSC by simply stacking the features from different frames, while the temporal correspondence modeling for the dense perception task of SSC remains unexplored. In this paper, we propose to explicitly model the temporal context correlation with pattern affinity to aggregate reliable temporal content and compensate for incomplete observations. + +# 3 Methodology + +# 3.1 Preliminary + +Given a set of input temporal RGB images $I_{set}^{rgb} = \{I_t^{rgb}, I_{t-1}^{rgb}, \dots \}$ , our objective is to simultaneously estimate the semantic and geometric properties of the 3D scene. Notably, our focus is exclusively on current and historical image frames, omitting consideration of future frames [22] to formulate a more practical scheme for real-world applications. The scene is depicted as a voxel grid $\mathbf{V}$ with dimensions $\mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times Z}$ , where $H, W, Z$ denote the height, width and depth of the voxel grid, respectively. Each voxel within the grid is associated with a distinct semantic class represented by $C$ , where $C$ takes values from the set $\{c_0, c_1, \ldots, c_N\}$ . The voxel can either correspond to empty space denoted as $c_0$ or to a particular semantic class from the set $\{c_1, c_2, \ldots, c_N\}$ . Here, $N$ represents the total count of + +![](images/8299d5ac1fd0bac94d545799822bf89fdad64177299e843327064290325790b2.jpg) +Fig. 3: Overall framework of our proposed method.

Afterward, the Reliable Temporal Aggregation is introduced to dynamically aggregate reliable relevant temporal content for fine-grained semantic scene prediction. + +available semantic classes. Our objective is to leverage the proposed framework, denoted as $\Theta$ , to learn a transformation: + +$$ +\widehat {\mathbf {V}} = \Theta \left(I _ {t} ^ {r g b}, I _ {t - 1} ^ {r g b}, \dots\right), \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\widehat{\mathbf{V}}$ denotes the estimated 3D semantic voxel grid, aiming to approximate the ground truth voxel grid $\mathbf{V}$ . + +# 3.2 Overall Framework + +As depicted in Figure 3, the overall framework of our proposed method mainly consists of three components: Aligned Temporal Volume Construction in the upper branch, Voxel Feature Volume Construction in the lower branch, and Reliable Temporal Aggregation for fine-grained SSC prediction. + +Aligned Temporal Volume Construction. To construct the temporal feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ , we feed the current and historical frames into a lightweight PoseNet [5,15] to generate the temporal contextual volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ with homography warping. Different from computing matching costs in typical temporal depth estimation solutions [5,27,45], we advocate to maintain the context features with $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ , further details are introduced in Section 3.3. + +Voxel Feature Volume Construction. To construct the voxel feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{vox}$ , a UNet backbone based on pre-trained EfficientNetB7 [41] is firstly employed to generate features with a spatial dimension of $\mathbb{R}^{H/4 \times W/4}$ . Next, we + +extend the LSS [23, 31] paradigm following recent studies [19, 52] to build the voxel feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{vox}$ from the outer product of the contextual information and the depth distribution. To model the depth distribution, off-the-shelf monocular [3] or stereo [10] depth estimation networks are utilized with depth hypothesis planes of 192. By default, we employ the stereo depth estimation to form a stereo-based pipeline of HTCL-S. Moreover, we construct another monocular-based pipeline of HTCL-M with the monocular depth estimation, broadening the applicability to scenarios without stereo inputs. + +Reliable Temporal Aggregation. We leverage the temporal volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ to form the cross-frame affinity $\hat{\mathbf{A}}$ , quantifying the contextual correspondence between current and historical features. Subsequently, we employ the cross-frame affinity to reassemble the temporal content and dynamically refine the sampling locations, yielding the reliable temporal volume $\widetilde{\mathbf{V}}_{tem}$ . Further details on the Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA) are introduced in Section 3.4, while the Affinity-based Dynamic Refinement (ADR) is presented in Section 3.5. + +A Weighted Voxel Attention (WVA) is employed to aggregate reliable temporal content. Given $\mathbf{V}_{vox}$ and $\widetilde{\mathbf{V}}_{tem}$ as inputs, the query $Q$ is generated from $\mathbf{V}_{vox}$ , the key $K$ and the value $V$ are generated from $\widetilde{\mathbf{V}}_{tem}$ . During the early training phase, unregulated temporal information could impair the learning of the voxel feature volume. To mitigate this, a flexible learning mechanism involving weighted voxel cross-attention is leveraged in the aggregation process: + +$$ +\mathbf {V} _ {\text {r e t}} = \alpha \cdot \operatorname {C r o s s A t t} (Q, K, V) + \mathbf {V} _ {\text {v o x}}, \tag {2} +$$ + +where the learnable coefficient $\alpha$ is initialized with 0 and gradually increases during training. $\mathbf{V}_{ret}$ represents the aggregated volume, which is fed into an SSC head with upsampling and a softmax layer for SSC prediction $\widehat{\mathbf{V}}$ following [7,52]. + +# 3.3 Temporal Content Alignment + +Given the fine-grained nature of the Semantic Scene Completion (SSC) task, constructing a dense temporal-aligned feature representation is crucial for accurate and robust perception. Rather than simply stacking the input images from different viewpoints [22], we propose to first align the temporal invariant content with explicit homography transformation. + +As shown in Figure 3, the current and historical frames are first fed into a lightweight PoseNet following video depth estimation [15,45] to generate the relative camera pose for photometric reprojection. Next, we leverage the current and historical frames to generate the current feature map $F_{t}$ and historical feature maps $\{F_{t - 1},\dots ,F_{t - n}\}$ . Following [5,45], we construct the warped historical features through homography warping with the relative camera pose and alternative depth hypothesis planes, which is formed as: + +$$ +\operatorname {W a r p} (\mathbf {p}) = \mathbf {K} _ {i} \cdot \left(\mathbf {R} _ {0, i} \cdot \left(\mathbf {K} _ {0} ^ {- 1} \cdot \mathbf {p} \cdot d _ {j}\right) + \mathbf {t} _ {0, i}\right), \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\{\mathbf{K}_i\}_{i=0}^{N-1}$ and $\{[\mathbf{R}_{0,i} \mid \mathbf{t}_{0,i}]\}_{i=1}^{N-1}$ denote camera intrinsic parameters and extrinsic parameters, respectively. $d_j$ denotes $j^{th}$ hypothesized depth of pixel $\mathbf{p}$ in $F_t$ . Following that, we build a historical feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{his}$ by aggregating all warped historical features in the canonical space. The historical feature volume contains geometric compatibility with different depth values between the current and historical frames. Next, we lift $F_t$ along the depth dimension as [30, 45] to generate the current feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{cur}$ . We concatenate $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{his}$ and $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{cur}$ following [45] to construct the temporal feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ : + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathbf {V} _ {t e m} = \operatorname {C o n c a t} \left\{\left(\mathbf {V} _ {t e m} ^ {c u r}, \mathbf {V} _ {t e m} ^ {h i s}\right), \dim = \mathbb {C} \right\} \tag {4} \\ = \operatorname {C o n c a t} \left\{\operatorname {L i f t} \left(F _ {t}\right), \operatorname {W a r p} \left(F _ {t - 1}, \dots , F _ {t - n}\right) \right\}. \\ \end{array} +$$ + +The temporal volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ benefits the semantic scene modeling by explicitly aligning the contextual features across different timesteps. In the following section, we elaborate on fully exploiting reliable information according to contextual correspondence with $\mathbf{V}_{tem}$ . + +Why feature volume instead of cost volume? The key distinction arises from the nature of camera-based Semantic Scene Completion, which is fundamentally not a matching task but rather a dense perception and reconstruction problem. Consequently, instead of directly computing matching costs within the temporal feature volume, our approach prioritizes the maintenance of fine-grained feature context. Moreover, to quantify the relevance of regional patterns within the temporal information, we construct auxiliary pattern affinity between the current and historical features. + +# 3.4 Cross-frame Pattern Affinity Measurement + +Although the temporal volume is explicitly aligned, it mixes redundant context from different frames, making it insufficient to directly model the scene representations corresponding to the current frame. Therefore, we propose to construct Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA) to measure the regional contextual correspondence between the historical feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{his}$ and current feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{cur}$ . + +Similarity Measurement. As a classic similarity metric, cosine similarity is commonly used in semantic analysis [12, 13, 33] and information retrieval [18, 32] for correlation measurement. Given two vectors of $\alpha$ and $\beta$ , the cosine similarity is calculated as: + +$$ +\operatorname {s i m} (\alpha , \beta) = \cos (\alpha , \beta) = \frac {\boldsymbol {\alpha} \cdot \boldsymbol {\beta}}{\| \boldsymbol {\alpha} \| * \| \boldsymbol {\beta} \|}. \tag {5} +$$ + +However, the original cosine similarity may yield high similarity scores with two dissimilar vectors [37]. This limitation is acknowledged and rectified through the scale-aware isolation [1], which takes into consideration different pattern scales. Nevertheless, these solutions tend to emphasize vector orientations and encounter challenges when assessing similarity within dense distributions. To overcome these drawbacks, ensemble learning techniques, as discussed in [48], + +![](images/2321840aa21b92d2a61e811edc21857c95d7d7421af782dddede6fcecb9c17e8.jpg) +Fig. 4: Visualization of the heat maps from our proposed Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA) and the original cosine similarity. + +leverage a diverse set of independent learners to address the aforementioned undesirable properties, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of dense similarity measurements. + +Given these concerns, we identify the criteria of an optimal similarity measurement strategy for fine-grained representations in SSC: incorporation of diverse independent learning and scale-aware isolation. In pursuit of this objective, we advocate employing the scale-aware isolated cosine similarity and taking multi-group context as inputs for affinity computation with dense distributions. Our strategy is implemented through two key steps: + +- Incorporate different pattern scales from multi-group context to enable diverse independent similarity learning for fine-grained representations in SSC. +- Generate cosine similarities with scale-aware isolation and aggregate them for reliable pattern affinity measurement. + +Multi-group Context Generation. To facilitate diverse independent similarity learning, 3D atrous convolutions with different dilation rates are employed to construct multi-group contextual features. Specifically, the historical feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{his}$ is processed by a set of atrous convolutions to generate historical multi-group context $\mathbf{H}_i$ ( $i \in (1,2,3)$ ): + +$$ +\mathbf {H} _ {i} = \mathrm {G N} \left(\delta \left(\operatorname {A t r o u s} _ {i} \left(\mathbf {V} _ {\text {t e m}} ^ {\text {h i s}}\right)\right)\right), \tag {6} +$$ + +where GN and $\delta$ denote group normalization and GELU activation, respectively. The atrous convolutions are employed in parallel with dilation rates of 1, 2, and 4, respectively. Note that the current multi-group context $\mathbf{C}_i$ is generated in a symmetrical manner from the current feature volume $\mathbf{V}_{tem}^{cur}$ : + +$$ +\mathbf {C} _ {i} = \operatorname {G N} \left(\delta \left(\text {A t r o u s} _ {i} \left(\mathbf {V} _ {\text {t e m}} ^ {\text {c u r}}\right)\right)\right). \tag {7} +$$ + +Measure Pattern Affinity for Dense SSC. We upgrade Equation 5 with two primary modifications to formulate the pattern affinity measurement for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling in SSC. Firstly, we consider different pattern scales of the multi-group context and compute the pattern + +affinity $\mathbf{A}_i$ with each scale $i$ . These independent group-scale affinity matrices are further aggregated along the channel dimension. Secondly, we subtract the respective averages during the affinity computation within each group scale to achieve scale-aware isolation. The formulas are represented as: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathbf {A} _ {i} = \operatorname {s i m} \left(\mathbf {C} _ {i}, \mathbf {H} _ {i}\right) \tag {8} \\ = \frac {\sum_ {j = 0} ^ {C} (\mathbf {C} _ {i} ^ {j} - \overline {{\mathbf {C}}} _ {i}) (\mathbf {H} _ {i} ^ {j} - \overline {{\mathbf {H}}} _ {i})}{\sqrt {\sum_ {j = 0} ^ {C} (\mathbf {C} _ {i} ^ {j} - \overline {{\mathbf {C}}} _ {i}) ^ {2}} \sqrt {\sum_ {j = 0} ^ {C} (\mathbf {H} _ {i} ^ {j} - \overline {{\mathbf {H}}} _ {i}) ^ {2}}}, \\ \end{array} +$$ + +$$ +\hat {\mathbf {A}} = \operatorname {C o n c a t} \left\{\left(\mathbf {A} _ {1}, \mathbf {A} _ {2}, \mathbf {A} _ {3}\right), \dim = \mathbb {C} \right\}, \tag {9} +$$ + +where the affinity matrices $\mathbf{A}_i$ of different group scales are concatenated along the channel dimension to get the cross-frame pattern affinity $\hat{\mathbf{A}}$ . The input context matrices $\mathbf{C}_i$ and $\mathbf{H}_i$ are taken as high-dimension vectors with different group scales. $\overline{\mathbf{C}}_i$ and $\overline{\mathbf{H}}_i$ represent averaged context matrices of each group scale. As illustrated in Figure 4, the affinity map from Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA) effectively signifies contextual correspondence within the temporal content. + +# 3.5 Affinity-based Dynamic Refinement + +Given our objective of completing and comprehending the 3D scene corresponding to the current frame, it is essential to assign greater weights to the most relevant locations. Simultaneously, investigating their neighboring relevant context is also critical to compensate for incomplete observations. + +To this end, we propose to adaptively refine the feature sampling locations based on the obtained identified high-affinity locations and their neighboring relevant regions. We implement the above ideas with 3D deformable convolutions [11,42]. Specifically, we accomplish the dynamic refinement by introducing the affinity-based correspondence weights and deformable position offsets. In the context of a sampling grid window $K_{w}$ , the formula is expressed as: + +$$ +\mathbf {V} _ {d e f} = \sum_ {k = 1} ^ {K _ {w}} w _ {k} \cdot \mathbf {V} _ {t e m} \left(\mathbf {p} + \mathbf {p} _ {k} + \Delta \mathbf {p} _ {k}\right) \cdot a _ {k}, \tag {10} +$$ + +where $K_{w}$ represents the number of points in the sampling process. $\Delta \mathbf{p}_k$ denotes the additional offset in the sampling grid. $w_{k}$ denotes the spatial feature weight and $a_{k}$ represents the affinity weight from the cross-frame pattern affinity $\hat{\mathbf{A}}$ . + +To further reason about dynamic modeling through hierarchical context, we optimize the refinement process by considering contextual information from different feature levels. As illustrated in Figure 3, we construct a multi-level deformable block with three cascade 3D deformable convolutions. The output features are aggregated to generate the reliable temporal volume $\widetilde{\mathbf{V}}_{tem}$ : + +$$ +\widetilde {\mathbf {V}} _ {t e m} = \mathbf {W} \left(\operatorname {C o n c a t} \left\{\left(\mathbf {V} _ {d e f} ^ {1}, \mathbf {V} _ {d e f} ^ {2}, \mathbf {V} _ {d e f} ^ {3}\right), \dim = \mathbb {C} \right\}\right). \tag {11} +$$ + +where the multi-level deformable temporal volumes $\mathbf{V}_{def}^{i}$ ( $i\in (1,2,3)$ ) are concatenated along the channel dimension and processed with a 3D convolution layer $\mathbf{W}$ for dimension reduction. + +# 4 Experiment + +# 4.1 Datasets and Metrics + +SemanticKITTI. The SemanticKITTI [2] dataset comprises 22 outdoor scenes with LiDAR scans and stereo images. The ground truth is voxelized as $256 \times 256 \times 32$ grids. Each voxel grid has a size of $(0.2m, 0.2m, 0.2m)$ and is annotated with 21 semantic classes (19 semantics, 1 free and 1 unknown). Following [7, 22], we divide the 22 outdoor scenes into 10 training scenes, 1 validation scene, and 1 test scene. Our proposed HTCL is evaluated on the SemanticKITTI with both temporal stereo images (HTCL-S) and monocular images (HTCL-M). + +OpenOccupancy. The OpenOccupancy [43] dataset extends the nuScene [4] dataset by providing dense semantic occupancy annotations. The dataset holds 850 scenes of 34K keyframes with 360-degree LiDAR scans. We split the whole dataset into 28130 training frames and 6019 validation frames following [43]. Each frame holds 400K occupied voxels with 17 semantic labels. Note that we exclusively apply monocular-based HTCL-M on the OpenOccupancy dataset due to the unavailability of stereo images. + +Evaluation Metrics. Following the previous works [7,22], we utilize the mean Intersection over Union (mIoU) as our primary metric to assess the performance of the semantic scene completion (SSC) task. Additionally, we report the Intersection over Union (IoU) to evaluate the performance of the class-agnostic scene completion (SC) task. + +# 4.2 Experimental Setup + +We follow the common practice [7, 22, 52] to initialize the encoder part of our UNet with the pretrained weight of EfficientNetB7 [41]. By default, our model takes the current frame and the previous 3 image frames as inputs. We implemented our model on PyTorch with a batch size of 4.

Figure 5 provides a qualitative comparison between our proposed method and VoxFormer on the SemanticKITTI validation set.

Moreover, our method effectively hallucinates more proper scenery outside of the camera field of view (e.g., shadow areas in the first and second rows) and demonstrates significant superiority over moving objects (e.g., trucks in the second row).

As shown in the table, our method efficiently achieves superior performance with the same temporal inputs. + +# 4.4 Ablation Study + +We conduct adequate ablations for our proposed method on the SemanticKITTI validation set. Specifically, we analyze the impact of different architectural components in Table 4 and study the influence of temporal inputs in Table 5. + +Temporal Content Alignment (TCA). The ablation study for Temporal Content Alignment (TCA) is reported in the second row of Table 4. We can observe that replacing the cost volume with the feature volume yields obvious performance gains, improving the IoU and mIoU by 1.50 and 1.11, respectively. We attribute this enhancement to the fine-grained feature context preservation. + +Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA). The ablation of Cross-frame Pattern Affinity (CPA) is detailed in the third row of Table 4. As we can see, equipping the original cosine similarity with the scale-aware isolation and introducing the multi-group context generation lead to significant performance enhancement, improving the mIoU by 1.95 and 1.87, respectively. + +Affinity-based Dynamic Refinement (ADR). The ablation study for the Affinity-based Dynamic Refinement (ADR) is conducted by removing the affinity weights and replacing the deformable convolutions with normal convolutions, as detailed in the fourth row of Table 4. Leveraging the affinity information is effective in modeling contextual correspondence, as the procedure results in a noticeable performance gain of 2.72 IoU and $2.48\mathrm{mIoU}$ . Furthermore, dynamic refinement with the deformable convolutions offers efficient and flexible contextual modeling, improving IoU and mIoU by 2.55 and 1.99, respectively. + +Weighted Voxel Attention (WVA). The ablation study about Weighted Voxel Attention (WVA) is shown in Figure 7 and the fifth row of Table 4. We remove the learnable coefficient and replace the voxel cross-attention with naive concatenation for comparison. It is evident in Figure 7 that the adoption of our proposed strategy leads to a more rapid and stable convergence of the entire model. Additionally, Table 4 shows noteworthy improvements through the incorporation of the learnable coefficient and the voxel cross-attention, enhancing the mIoU by 1.28 and 1.15, respectively. + +Table 5: Effect of using a different number of temporal frames.

We report the semantic scene completion performance and running time with temporal inputs of different frame numbers, which are detailed in Table 5. As we can observe, the effectiveness gain of more than 3 previous frames is relatively slight with more running time, thus we adopt 3 frames as the default setting to balance between efficiency and effectiveness. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we introduce HTCL, an innovative hierarchical temporal in-context learning paradigm for semantic scene completion (SSC). To highlight the most relevant patterns, we introduce the pattern affinity to measure the contextual correspondence between the current and historical frames. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we propose to adaptively refine the feature sampling locations based on the initially high-affinity locations and their neighboring relevant regions. Our method outperforms state-of-the-art camera-based methods and even surpasses LiDAR-based methods for semantic scene completion. We hope HTCL could inspire further research in camera-based temporal modeling for SSC and its applications in 3D visual perception. + +# Acknowledgments + +This work was supported in part by NSFC 62302246 and ZJNSFC under Grant LQ23F010008, and supported by High Performance Computing Center at Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo, and Ningbo Institute of Digital Twin. + +# References + +1.

Camera-based 3D semantic scene completion (SSC) is pivotal for predicting complicated 3D layouts with limited 2D image observations. The existing mainstream solutions generally leverage temporal information by roughly stacking history frames to supplement the current frame, such straightforward temporal modeling inevitably diminishes valid clues and increases learning difficulty. To address this problem, we present HTCL, a novel Hierarchical Temporal Context Learning paradigm for improving camera-based semantic scene completion. The primary innovation of this work involves decomposing temporal context learning into two hierarchical steps: (a) cross-frame affinity measurement and (b) affinity-based dynamic refinement. Firstly, to separate critical relevant context from redundant information, we introduce the pattern affinity with scale-aware isolation and multiple independent learners for fine-grained contextual correspondence modeling.

Specifically, we first leverage epipolar homo-warping to explicitly align the temporal invariant feature representations and establish temporal feature volumes to fully maintain fine-grained context. Then, we introduce scale-aware isolation and incorporation of diverse independent learning in the cross-frame affinity measurement to facilitate better affinity distribution modeling in SSC. Subsequently, to dynamically compensate for incomplete observations, we resort to investigating the critical locations with high affinities and the neighboring relevant context.

Source free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to transfer the model trained on labeled source domain to unlabeled target domain without accessing source data. Recent SFDA methods predominantly rely on self-training, which supervise the model with pseudo labels generated from individual data samples. However, they often ignore the crucial data structure information and sample relationships that are beneficial for adaptive training. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical relation distillation framework, establishing multi-level relations across samples in an unsupervised manner, which fully exploits inherent data structure to guide sample training instead of using isolated pseudo labels. We first distinguish source-like samples based on prediction reliability during training, followed by an effort on distilling knowledge to those target-specific ones by transferring both local clustering relation and global semantic relation. Specifically, we leverage the affinity with nearest neighborhood samples for local relation and consider the similarity to category-wise Gaussian Mixtures for global relation, offering complementary supervision to facilitate student learning.

Source free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to transfer the model trained on labeled source domain to unlabeled target domain without accessing source data. Recent SFDA methods predominantly rely on self-training, which supervise the model with pseudo labels generated from individual data samples. However, they often ignore the crucial data structure information and sample relationships that are beneficial for adaptive training. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical relation distillation framework, establishing multi-level relations across samples in an unsupervised manner, which fully exploits inherent data structure to guide sample training instead of using isolated pseudo labels. We first distinguish source-like samples based on prediction reliability during training, followed by an effort on distilling knowledge to those target-specific ones by transferring both local clustering relation and global semantic relation. Specifically, we leverage the affinity with nearest neighborhood samples for local relation and consider the similarity to category-wise Gaussian Mixtures for global relation, offering complementary supervision to facilitate student learning. To validate our approach's effectiveness, we conduct extensive experiments on diverse benchmarks, achieving better performance compared to previous methods. + +Keywords: Source Free Domain Adaptation $\cdot$ Relation Distillation $\cdot$ Knowledge Transfer + +# 1 Introduction + +Deep neural network (DNN) models have achieved remarkable success in various visual recognition tasks. However, even very large DNN models often suffer significant performance degradation when there is a distribution or domain shift [28] between training (source) and testing (target) domains. To address the problem of domain shifts, various Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) algorithms [1, 5, 22, 31] have been developed, which aim to transfer the knowledge from labeled source domain to the unlabeled target domain. Due to data + +![](images/5a23a41f2fbdff04199c2d0853f0c02c0f855a3920474f8f35a6bc4833bb0bff.jpg) +(a) Traditional Knowledge Distillation + +![](images/d4b8df57adf79e1b488843dc4a829566157ee7ce39519b677d6debd9b7155a7a.jpg) +(b) Our Hierarchical Relation Distillation +Fig. 1: (a) Traditional knowledge distillation transfers the individual output logit of isolated sample from teacher to student. (b) Our relation distillation integrates structural relations of overall dataset as supervision for student learning. + +privacy concerns, more recent methods focus on Source Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA) [4,17,40], which is a more practical setting. Under this setting, the labeled source data is not accessible any more when training the target model, but only the pre-trained model from the source domain is provided. + +Recently, several SFDA methods [12, 15, 18-20, 37, 38, 43, 45] have been proposed, focusing on mutual information maximization [19], self-training [14, 20], auxiliary self-supervised tasks [2, 3, 45] and so on. Among them, self-training methods have emerged as a promising solution for SFDA, which generate pseudo labels to supervise model training for target data. However, the performance of self-training can suffer from noise due to domain shifts. Since the pseudo labels are always generated from the model prediction of individual sample, lacking consideration of intrinsic data structure, the optimization of the source-trained model is then degraded to entropy minimization [18], where the updated model can achieve high confident but wrong predictions on account of pseudo label noise. Several works [12, 35, 45] propose to divide the samples into different sets and process them separately, however, they ignore the relation between sample sets, missing to exploit the reliable information from those confident samples. + +In this paper, we identify the above limitations and propose a novel hierarchical relation distillation (HRD) framework that rectifies feature learning by harnessing the intrinsic data structure, in the meanwhile exploiting different properties including local and global relations across samples with varying reliability. Specifically, we first divide the target samples into two pseudo domains, named as the source-like set and target-specific set, employing a class-balanced division strategy that accentuates the former's heightened prediction reliability with the source model. Given the absence of accessible ground truth labels, we intend to construct relations between the two pseudo domains unsupervisedly, and then distill the reliable structural knowledge to facilitate the sample training and model adaptation with a teacher-student scheme. In order to enable the modeling of longer range and broader structure information, we introduce a memory bank to store the output features and logits of target data, enabling hierarchical relationship establishment spanning both local and global contexts. Finally, the two relation distillation branches are merged through an adaptive + +ensemble strategy, regularized by a reliability-aware weighting coefficient, thus to fully utilize the information from different properties. + +The core idea lies in exploiting the inherent relations across samples to facilitate sample training in a more robust manner and transfer knowledge from those well-learnt samples to the other ones, i.e., from source-like set to target-specific set. Specifically, we introduce two pivotal constructs: local clustering relation and global semantic relation. Since visually similar samples are closer than dissimilar ones in feature space, we propose to leverage the information of local context to facilitate the cultivation of sample learning. Concretely, we calculate local affinity with the top-K nearest source-like neighbors and regard these reliable neighbor predictions as soft labels, leading to the local clustering relation, which also enforces aligned representations in the neighborhood. As for the global semantic relation, we dynamically build Gaussian Mixtures to represent the distribution of each specific category, utilizing source-like samples as the centroids of different Gaussian mixtures. On this basis, it enables us to establish semantic relation by measuring the relative similarity to each class-wise mixture for the given sample, thus to facilitate model adaptation from a global probabilistic perspective. Overall, the former relation focuses on local spatial alignment and the latter attends to global semantic distribution, offering complementary supervision to improve sample training. + +Finally, we conduct comprehensive experiments on several popular SFDA benchmarks, including Office-31 [29], Office-Home [33], VisDA-2017 [26] and DomainNet [25]. The results demonstrate that the proposed HRD achieves superior performance against comparable state-of-the-art SFDA methods, in the meanwhile exhibiting compatibility with the recent strong baselines [19,38]. Additionally, the ablation studies validate the effectiveness of individual components of our framework for model adaptation. In summary, our contributions are: + +1. We propose a novel perspective for source free domain adaptation from the view of relation distillation, exploiting data structure information and sample relationships to facilitate the adaptation in target domain. +2. We establish the hierarchical relations among samples unsupervisedly, proposing local clustering relation and global semantic relation. We also employ an effective adaptive ensemble strategy to regularize these two branches. +3. The experimental results demonstrate that our approach outperforms existing SFDA methods on several datasets. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Source Free Domain Adaptation + +SFDA aims to transfer the model from source domain to target domain without accessing source data. Recently, several approaches [4, 12, 18-20, 24, 38-40] have been proposed for SFDA. Specifically, SHOT [19] utilizes a prototype-based method to obtain pseudo label for self-training. However, pseudo labels generated at the early training stage can be noisy, and several works propose + +different strategies to refine the pseudo labels. GPUE [20] proposes to guide pseudo label learning by combining with uncertainty estimation. G-SFDA [37] and NRC [39] follow a similar strategy by encouraging consistent predictions between the neighborhood samples. In addition, DaC [45] considers sample division and takes different strategies for the two subsets, e.g. generating different contrastive positive pairs for each sample. Although great success has been made, the crucial target data structure and sample relationships are not fully exploited in these works. To this end, we propose to rectify label noise by integrating local and global data structure without any rigorous and expensive pseudo label refinement technique, in the meanwhile utilizing relation distillation to mine reliable information and bring benefits for the unreliable data learning. + +# 2.2 Knowledge Distillation + +Knowledge distillation [6,9,46] aims to transfer knowledge from a teacher model to a student model. By leveraging knowledge distillation, the student model could learn implicit knowledge by incorporating an extra objective of the teacher's outputs so as to gain better performance. Recently, some works [41, 42] have demonstrated that distilling models of identical architecture in a teacher-student scheme, i.e., self-distillation, can further improve the performance of neural network. Specifically, they use the semantically meaningful probability distribution produced by the teacher model to supervise the learning of the student model. However, since the outputs of the teacher model are only based on processing the isolated sample, the noise of the prediction logits may lead to wrong optimization direction. Therefore, we explore to consider a broader view by making use of data structure and sample relationships to obtain more appropriate probability distribution for unlabeled target samples, as depicted in Fig. 1. In this way, the distillation is no longer based on single instance, but based on the correlation of target samples, leading to more reliable and robust supervision for student. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Preliminary + +In the domain adaptation setting, a labeled source domain dataset and an unlabeled target domain dataset are provided, with the aim to learn an adaptive model transferred from source to target. Concretely, the source dataset $\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{s}} = \{(x_{i}^{\mathrm{s}},y_{i}^{\mathrm{s}})\}_{i = 1}^{N_{\mathrm{s}}}$ contains $N_{s}$ labeled samples distributed over $C$ classes. Here, $y_{i}^{s}\in \mathcal{V}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{C}$ denotes the one-hot ground-truth label for sample $x_{i}^{s}$ . The model $\phi = f\circ g$ can be regarded as the combination of a feature extractor $f$ and a classifier $g$ , where $f:x\to \mathbb{R}^{D}$ maps the input image to a D-dimensional feature and $g:\mathbb{R}^D\to \mathbb{R}^C$ further maps it to a $C$ -dimensional category probability vector. + +In this paper, we focus on SFDA problem where the data in $\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{s}}$ is unavailable while only the pre-trained source model $\phi$ is available. The target domain dataset is denoted as $\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{t}} = \{(x_{i}^{t})\}_{i = 1}^{N_{\mathrm{t}}}$ containing $N_{\mathrm{t}}$ unlabeled samples, which shares the same label set $\mathcal{V}$ as $\mathcal{D}_{\mathrm{s}}$ . + +![](images/aec5fc1148e17ccc69c9f35f6610c68e2d317f89fa9365a1623083876149c574.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overview of the proposed hierarchical relation distillation (HRD) framework. + +# 3.2 Framework Overview + +The overall framework of our proposed method is illustrated in Fig. 2. Following the popular teacher-student paradigm, our proposed hierarchical relation distillation framework adopts a pair of teacher model $\phi_t$ and student model $\phi_s$ with exactly the same network architecture. In each training iteration, the original and weak-augmented target samples are fed to the teacher and student, respectively. Considering that the individual pseudo label directly and simply from the teacher model contains noise and may lead to wrong optimization directions, we intend to include more robust and reliable supervision from the teacher. + +Since samples sharing visual similarity tend to belong to the same semantic class, we propose to explicitly leverage the target data structure and the relationship among samples to alleviate the sample training. Specifically, we implement the teacher model with a memory bank, which stores the features and predicted logits of all target samples. On this basis, we conduct class-balanced sample division, dividing the target samples into the source-like set and target-specific set. After the division, we establish local clustering relation and global semantic relation between the two sets, so as to distill the hierarchical and reliable structural knowledge to student. Further, we introduce a simple yet effective re-weighting scheme to ensemble the two distillation branches, which assigns adaptive regularization for each branch and each sample. Finally, the parameters of the student are updated by back-propagation, while the parameters of the teacher model are the exponential moving average of the student. + +# 3.3 Hierarchical Relation Distillation + +Class-Balanced Sample Division. To begin with, we will describe the process of dataset division, through which we intend to distinguish samples that are learnt well and not that well with source model. In general, the accuracy of sample can be strongly related to prediction confidence [7], therefore, we take advantage of the prediction confidence as a measurement. Intuitively, when + +processed by source model, the samples that have confident predictions exhibit higher certainty and can be regarded as more similar to source domain distribution. In this way, we can divide the samples into two pseudo domains according to prediction reliability. Besides, the learning effect can also be various for different categories, therefore, the division principle should be related to different classes so as to reflect the class-level learning status. Moreover, the threshold should be increasing steadily as the model is continuously improved during training. + +To this end, we propose a class-balanced division strategy based on the prediction confidence, in the meanwhile implemented with an adaptive threshold to be fit with different learning stages and different categories. Concretely, the samples are dynamically grouped into the source-like set by threshold $\tau_{c}$ for the $c$ -th category, and then forming the source-like set $\mathcal{D}_r$ and target-specific set $\mathcal{D}_u$ : + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {D} _ {r} (c) = \left\{x _ {i} \mid \max \left(p _ {i}\right) > \tau_ {c}, x _ {i} \in \mathcal {O} (c) \right\} \\ \mathcal {D} _ {r} = \left\{C, \mathcal {D} (c), \mathcal {D} _ {r}, \mathcal {D} _ {r} ^ {\prime} \right\} \end{array} \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {D} _ {r} = \cup_ {i = 1} ^ {C} \mathcal {D} _ {r} (c), \quad \mathcal {D} _ {u} = \mathcal {D} _ {t} / \mathcal {D} _ {r} +$$ + +where $p_i$ is a C-dimensional vector from the teacher classifier output, $\mathcal{O}(c) = \{x_i | \arg\max(p_i) = c, x_i \in \mathcal{D}_t\}$ contains samples that have the highest prediction score on class $c$ , and $\tau_c = \frac{1}{|\mathcal{O}(c)|} \sum_{x_i \in \mathcal{O}(c)} p_i^c$ is a class-balanced threshold value to filter samples without fine-tuning. + +Local Clustering Relation. After feature extraction, similar samples are more likely to have similar features and lead to clustering in the feature space, therefore, we propose to incorporate information of the neighboring target samples to estimate the local distribution that are more robust against domain shifts. The local distribution can be obtained by considering the relation with reliable neighbors for the anchor sample, so as to transfer the local structural information from teacher to student. + +Specifically, given anchor sample $x_{i}$ , we first calculate its local affinity to the reliable neighborhood samples. Suppose that K nearest samples for $x_{i}$ are selected from the source-like set, we can obtain a K-dimensional affinity vector based on the cosine distance between the anchor sample and the neighborhood samples. The affinity vector reflects the similarity among other samples for $x_{i}$ in the local region, where the more similar sample is assigned higher affinity and vice versa. In formulation, this K-dimensional normalized affinity vector can be written as: + +$$ +A _ {i} = \left[ a _ {i, \mathcal {N} (i)} \right], \quad a _ {i, j} = \frac {\cos \left(f \left(x _ {i}\right) , f \left(x _ {j}\right)\right)}{\sum_ {k \in \mathcal {N} (i)} \cos \left(f \left(x _ {i}\right) , f \left(x _ {k}\right)\right)} \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{N}(i) = \{j|x_j\in \mathrm{KNN}(x_i,K,\mathcal{D}_r)\}$ represents the top-K nearest neighbor samples around $x_{i}$ in $\mathcal{D}_r$ + +Since the neighborhood samples are selected from source-like set and exhibit high confidence, we thus see them as trustworthy support samples and regard their prediction logits as soft class labels, leading to soft label vector $P_{i} = [p_{n(1)}, p_{n(2)}, \dots, p_{n(K)}]$ , where we re-write $\mathcal{N}(i)$ as $\{n(1), n(2), \dots, n(K)\}$ . + +Therefore, the anchor sample can be aware of local category distribution by aggregating soft labels with local affinity, leading to local clustering relation: + +$$ +r _ {i} ^ {\text {l o c a l}} = A _ {i} \cdot P _ {i} ^ {T} \tag {3} +$$ + +In this way, the obtained vector $r_i^{local}$ contains the relationship with local reliable neighbors instead of based on single sample prediction, thus can be more robust and reliable. We can distill the aggregated relationships of each sample with respect to the local neighbors in target domain, which encourages the model to maintain more stable representations by anchoring a broader view. + +Global Semantic Relation. In addition to the local clustering relation, we would like to further utilize the global data structure to establish the global relation, by considering semantic similarity with the data from the whole dataset. Concretely, we utilize Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), a typical probabilistic model, to represent the distributions of different categories, which can be further introduced to formulate the global similarity. Since we have distinguished the well-learnt samples that contain reliable semantic information, on this basis, we regard them as the centroids of Gaussian Mixtures and build a reliable GMM, enabling to model the relationship among samples and integrate the overall target structure information. + +In order to build a GMM which includes $C$ Gaussian mixture components, we firstly calculate the average features of the source-like samples belonging to $c$ -th class as the mean $\mu_c$ with the reliable samples as centers: + +$$ +\mu_ {c} = \frac {1}{| \mathcal {D} _ {r} (c) |} \sum_ {x _ {i} \in \mathcal {D} _ {r} (c)} f (x _ {i}) \tag {4} +$$ + +where $f(x_{i})$ is the extracted feature representation of sample $x_{i}$ , $\mathcal{D}_r(c)$ is the reliable set for class $c$ . After obtaining $\mu_c$ , the variance $\sigma_c$ of $c$ -th component can be calculated by measuring the distance between samples and mixture centers: + +$$ +\sigma_ {c} = \sqrt {\frac {\sum_ {x _ {i} \in \mathcal {D} _ {r}} p _ {i} ^ {c} \cdot \left(f \left(x _ {i}\right) - \mu_ {c}\right) ^ {2}}{\sum_ {x _ {i} \in \mathcal {D} _ {r}} p _ {i} ^ {c}}} \tag {5} +$$ + +where $p_i^c$ is the prediction score of the $c$ -th category for $x_i$ . + +On this basis, we can utilize the established reliable GMM to model the global semantic similarity for the given sample. To be specific, by comparing each respective sample feature to the Gaussian Mixtures, we obtain the global semantic relation, which can be formulated as: + +$$ +g (x _ {i} \mid \mu_ {c}, \sigma_ {c}) = \frac {1}{\sqrt {2 \pi \sigma_ {c} ^ {2}}} \cdot e x p (- \frac {(f (x _ {i}) - \mu_ {c})) ^ {2}}{2 \sigma_ {c} ^ {2}}) +$$ + +$$ +p \left(x _ {i}\right) _ {c} = \frac {\pi_ {c} \cdot g \left(x _ {i} \mid \mu_ {c} , \sigma_ {c}\right)}{\Sigma_ {j = 1} ^ {C} \left\{\pi_ {j} \cdot g \left(x _ {i} \mid \mu_ {j} , \sigma_ {j}\right) \right\}} \tag {6} +$$ + +$$ +r _ {i} ^ {\text {g l o b a l}} = \left[ p (x _ {i}) _ {1}, p (x _ {i}) _ {2}, \dots , p (x _ {i}) _ {C} \right] +$$ + +where $\pi_{j} = \frac{|\mathcal{D}_{r}(j)|}{|\mathcal{D}_{r}|}$ is the mixing coefficient calculated in GMM, indicating the probability that the $j$ -th component is selected. Note that, the employed GMM is implemented adaptively, where the parameters are dynamically adapted with the training going. As the features and predictions can be varied in each epoch, it introduces more randomness that further regularizes the model training. Besides, the number of reliable samples can be progressively increased, thus a more reasonable GMM can be constructed, gradually approximating the real target distribution and transferring more reliable global structural knowledge. + +Adaptive Ensembled Distillation. Because the ground truth label is not available and the prediction of teacher model can not be exactly accurate, we additionally add an adaptive regularization for distillation. Concretely, we propose an adaptive weighting coefficient for each sample's relation distillation process and also balance the two distillation branches, which exclusively regularizes the loss function without incurring additional computational overhead. + +Specifically, we adopt the reliability of the predictions to measure the respective proportion of each local and global relation vector as self-regularization, then adaptively ensemble them for the final optimization. To measure the label reliability, we exploit the max score and the entropy of the relation distribution to assign adaptive weight for each branch and for each sample, using the product of these two metrics as the adaptive weight, written as: + +$$ +\omega_ {i} = \max \left(r _ {i}\right) * \exp (- \text {e n t r o p y} \left(r _ {i}\right)) \tag {7} +$$ + +In this way, we can consider the reliable prediction more and the unreliable prediction less in an adaptive manner, achieving sample-wise re-weighting and branch balancing, thus to improve the distillation. Overall, the adaptively regularized hierarchical relation distillation objective is: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {L} _ {r d} = \operatorname {E} _ {x _ {i} \in \mathcal {D} _ {t}} [ \omega_ {i} ^ {l o c a l} \cdot K L (\sigma (\frac {r _ {i} ^ {l o c a l}}{\rho}) | | \sigma (\frac {\phi_ {s} (x _ {i})}{\rho})) \\ + \omega_ {i} ^ {\text {g l o b a l}} \cdot K L \left(\sigma \left(\frac {r _ {i} ^ {\text {g l o b a l}}}{\rho}\right) \mid \mid \sigma \left(\frac {\phi_ {s} \left(x _ {i}\right)}{\rho}\right)\right) ] \tag {8} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\sigma$ denotes the softmax function, $\rho$ is a pre-defined temperature, and $\phi_s(x_i)$ is the student prediction of $x_{i}$ . + +# 3.4 Overall Training Objective + +For the model optimization, the student is updated by the loss propagation. Concretely, in addition to the above hierarchical relation distillation loss, we also include a widely used diversity loss in SFDA methods [19, 39]: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {d i v} = \sum_ {c = 1} ^ {C} \hat {p} ^ {c} \log \left(\hat {p} ^ {c}\right) \tag {9} +$$ + +where $\hat{p} = \operatorname{E}_{x_i \in \mathcal{D}_t}[\phi_s(x_i)]$ is the mean output embedding of the whole target domain samples from the student model. + +Combining the above losses with a coefficient $\beta$ as trade-off (setting $\beta = 1$ as previous works [19,39]), the overall optimization objective is summarized as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \mathcal {L} _ {r d} + \beta \mathcal {L} _ {d i v} \tag {10} +$$ + +For the teacher update, we simply take the exponential moving average of student parameters $\theta_{s}$ to update the teacher parameters $\theta_{t}$ during each iteration. + +$$ +\theta_ {t} = \lambda \theta_ {t} + (1 - \lambda) \theta_ {s} \tag {11} +$$ + +where $\lambda$ is an updating coefficient. + +It is noted that our proposed relation distillation framework can also be combined with other methods, e.g. replacing the diversity loss with the dispersing loss in AaD [38], which is denoted as $\mathrm{HRD}++$ in the experiments. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Experimental Setup + +Datasets. We carry out experiments on four benchmarks for image classification. Concretely, Office-Home [33] has a total of 15.5K images from 65 classes collected from 4 different image domains: Artistic, Clipart, Product, and Realworld, constituting 12 transfer tasks. Office-31 [29] is a small-scale benchmark with images from 31 categories across 3 domains: Amazon, DSLR and Webcam. VisDA [26] contains 2 different domains, synthetic and real, with 12 shared classes. We consider the model adaptation from synthetic to real domain, and report the average over per-class accuracy For DomainNet, following previous works [45], we use a subset of it that contains 126 classes from 4 domains (Real, Sketch, Clipart, Painting) and evaluate 7 domain shifts built from them. + +Implementation Details. For the sake of a fair and direct comparison, we use the same experimental setup and architecture as previous works. Specifically, we use ResNet50 [8] as backbone for Office-31, Office-Home, DomainNet and ResNet101 [8] for VisDA. For source model training, we initialize the ResNet backbone with ImageNet-1K pre-trained weights, and then the model is trained with the standard cross-entropy loss and with label-smoothing like in [19]. For the adaptation in target domain, the model is first initialized with the source model's parameters. During training, we adopt SGD optimizer with a momentum of 0.9 and a weight decay of 1e-4. The learning rate is set as 5e-3 for Office datasets and 5e-4 for VisDA and DomainNet, while the batch size is set as 64 for all datasets. For the input samples of student model, we use weak data augmentation that consists of resized crops and horizontal flip. As for hyper-parameters, we set K as 3 for Office datasets and 5 for the other two datasets, the EMA update coefficient $\lambda$ is set as 0.99 and the temperature $\rho$ is set as 0.1 empirically. + +Table 1: Accuracy (%) on Office-Home and VisDA.

+ +# 4.2 Comparison Results + +We report Top-1 accuracy on the above benchmarks to validate the performance of HRD against previous methods. For Office-Home and Office-31, the accuracy for each domain shift and on average is shown in Tab. 1 and Tab. 2. Compared with the baseline method (i.e., SHOT [19]), our HRD achieves an average $3.4\%$ accuracy improvement on Office-Home and an average $2.0\%$ improvement on Office-31, respectively. Since we use the same architecture and experimental setup as the baseline, the improvements can be directly attributed to our proposed novel hierarchical relation distillation framework. Besides, when combined with the dispersing loss as AaD [38], we achieve the state-of-the-art results on these two benchmarks. We believe that, exploiting the structural relation among samples and propagate the knowledge from source-like to target-specific ones is beneficial for the source model adaptation. + +On the other two larger scale and more challenging datasets, i.e., VisDA and DomainNet, we also achieve better performance comparing with both UDA and SFDA methods, as shown in Tab. 1 and Tab. 3. It is noted that, even without accessing source data during adaptation, we can outperform UDA methods [16,23] by a large margin. Compared to the recent SFDA methods, it is clear that both HRD and $\mathrm{HRD} + +$ outperform previous approaches, where $\mathrm{HRD} + +$ achieves the best performance and HRD is the second best. In particular, compared to DaC [45] that also employs a data division strategy for SFDA but lacks consideration of relations between different sets, we significantly outperform it by $2.9\%$ on VisDA and $2.0\%$ on DomainNet, demonstrating the superiority of our proposed relation distillation. Besides, HRD achieves competitive performance in most kinds of domain shifts, validating its generality for different types of data. It is also worth mentioning that the success of $\mathrm{HRD} + +$ demonstrates the compatibility of our method when selecting AaD as a stronger baseline. + +Table 2: Accuracy (%) on Office-31. + +

+ +cal or global structure relation can not be totally accurate, we can mitigate the negative effect of noise by integrating the reliability as regularization for each branch and for each sample. + +Impact of data division. We divide the target samples into two sets and establish sample connections with the source-like samples, thus to distinguish and better utilize the reliable information. In order to prove the necessity of such data division, we conduct experiments without division, where the relation is built with samples from the overall set instead of from source-like set. In Tab. 5, compared to baseline, the method without data division can still boost accuracy by a large margin, which suggests that the structural information helps with sample training. Furthermore, with the sample division, we can build more reliable local and global relationship by recognizing those source-like samples, thus exploiting the reliable knowledge and transferring such knowledge to unreliable samples. Besides, we also analysis the class-balanced division strategy, showing that by dividing samples with class-wise threshold, it alleviates learning imbalance and further promotes adaptation effect. + +In Fig. 3, we give the curve of sample set proportion and model performance on VisDA during training. As the training goes, the model progressively adapts to the target domain data, leading to a gradually increasing number of reliable samples. On this basis, the established relation can take advantage of more domain information and be more robust, which in turn facilitates model adaptation and boosts performance. Finally, our method converges to a stable and higher classification accuracy with the proposed learning scheme. + +Impact of distillation. In Tab. 6, we compare the results of methods with and without the teacher-student distillation scheme on VisDA.

To validate our core insight, i.e., employing inherent similarity and relationship across samples instead of conventional pseudo labels to help model training, we evaluate the prediction accuracy directly from classifier output and from the proposed hierarchical relations. Specifically, we report the results on source-like set, target-specific set and the overall dataset, as illustrated in Fig. 4. Firstly, it is observed that the prediction from local and global structural relation exhibit higher accuracy than conventional pseudo label, suggesting that it is appropriate to utilize hierarchical relation as supervision to train student model. Besides, the accuracy on source-like set is much higher than that on target-specific set. On account of these trustworthy predictions, it is reasonable to exploit source-like set and propagate these knowledge to facilitate the learning of other samples by relation distillation. + +Hyper-parameter sensitivity. In this part, we analyze the model sensitivity of hyper-parameters, i.e., the number of nearest neighbors $\mathrm{K}$ , the EMA update coefficient $\lambda$ , and the temperature $\rho$ in relation distillation.

Third, as for the temperature $\rho$ that is used to calibrate the similarity distribution for distillation, we empirically set it as 0.1. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this paper, we present a novel Hierarchical Relation Distillation framework, specifically designed for the challenging task of source free domain adaptation. By leveraging relation based supervision from different properties, HRD overcomes the limitations of traditional self-training approaches that neglect data structure information and inter-sample relationships, ensuring a seamless transfer of structural knowledge from teacher to student. Through the effective transfer of both local clustering and global semantic relations, the student model gains more sufficient and reliable structural knowledge from the teacher, leading to enhanced adaptability and generalization in the target domain.

Source free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to transfer the model trained on labeled source domain to unlabeled target domain without accessing source data. Recent SFDA methods predominantly rely on self-training, which supervise the model with pseudo labels generated from individual data samples. However, they often ignore the crucial data structure information and sample relationships that are beneficial for adaptive training. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical relation distillation framework, establishing multi-level relations across samples in an unsupervised manner, which fully exploits inherent data structure to guide sample training instead of using isolated pseudo labels. We first distinguish source-like samples based on prediction reliability during training, followed by an effort on distilling knowledge to those target-specific ones by transferring both local clustering relation and global semantic relation. Specifically, we leverage the affinity with nearest neighborhood samples for local relation and consider the similarity to category-wise Gaussian Mixtures for global relation, offering complementary supervision to facilitate student learning. To validate our approach's effectiveness, we conduct extensive experiments on diverse benchmarks, achieving better performance compared to previous methods." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Source Free Domain Adaptation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Relation Distillation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 495, + 452, + 517 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Knowledge Transfer" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 537, + 230, + 551 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 537, + 230, + 551 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 537, + 230, + 551 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 563, + 482, + 647 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 563, + 482, + 647 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 563, + 482, + 647 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Deep neural network (DNN) models have achieved remarkable success in various visual recognition tasks.

Among them, self-training methods have emerged as a promising solution for SFDA, which generate pseudo labels to supervise model training for target data. However, the performance of self-training can suffer from noise due to domain shifts. Since the pseudo labels are always generated from the model prediction of individual sample, lacking consideration of intrinsic data structure, the optimization of the source-trained model is then degraded to entropy minimization [18], where the updated model can achieve high confident but wrong predictions on account of pseudo label noise.

Given the absence of accessible ground truth labels, we intend to construct relations between the two pseudo domains unsupervisedly, and then distill the reliable structural knowledge to facilitate the sample training and model adaptation with a teacher-student scheme.

Since visually similar samples are closer than dissimilar ones in feature space, we propose to leverage the information of local context to facilitate the cultivation of sample learning. Concretely, we calculate local affinity with the top-K nearest source-like neighbors and regard these reliable neighbor predictions as soft labels, leading to the local clustering relation, which also enforces aligned representations in the neighborhood. As for the global semantic relation, we dynamically build Gaussian Mixtures to represent the distribution of each specific category, utilizing source-like samples as the centroids of different Gaussian mixtures.

For the adaptation in target domain, the model is first initialized with the source model's parameters. During training, we adopt SGD optimizer with a momentum of 0.9 and a weight decay of 1e-4. The learning rate is set as 5e-3 for Office datasets and 5e-4 for VisDA and DomainNet, while the batch size is set as 64 for all datasets.

We propose a new framework for creating and easily manipulating 3D models of arbitrary objects using casually captured videos. Our core ingredient is a novel hierarchy deformation model, which captures motions of objects with a tree-structured bones.

We further propose to regularize the bones to be positioned at the basis of motions, centers of parts, sufficiently covering related surfaces of the part. This is achieved by our bone occupancy function, which identifies whether a given 3D point is placed within the bone. Coupling the proposed components, our framework offers several clear advantages: (1) Users can obtain animatable 3D models of the arbitrary objects in improved quality from their casual videos, (2) users can manipulate 3D models in an intuitive manner with minimal costs, and (3) users can interactively add or delete control points as necessary.

We propose a new framework for creating and easily manipulating 3D models of arbitrary objects using casually captured videos. Our core ingredient is a novel hierarchy deformation model, which captures motions of objects with a tree-structured bones. Our hierarchy system decomposes motions based on the granularity and reveals the correlations between parts without exploiting any prior structural knowledge. We further propose to regularize the bones to be positioned at the basis of motions, centers of parts, sufficiently covering related surfaces of the part. This is achieved by our bone occupancy function, which identifies whether a given 3D point is placed within the bone. Coupling the proposed components, our framework offers several clear advantages: (1) Users can obtain animatable 3D models of the arbitrary objects in improved quality from their casual videos, (2) users can manipulate 3D models in an intuitive manner with minimal costs, and (3) users can interactively add or delete control points as necessary.

We propose a new framework for creating and easily manipulating 3D models of arbitrary objects using casually captured videos. Our core ingredient is a novel hierarchy deformation model, which captures motions of objects with a tree-structured bones. Our hierarchy system decomposes motions based on the granularity and reveals the correlations between parts without exploiting any prior structural knowledge. We further propose to regularize the bones to be positioned at the basis of motions, centers of parts, sufficiently covering related surfaces of the part. This is achieved by our bone occupancy function, which identifies whether a given 3D point is placed within the bone. Coupling the proposed components, our framework offers several clear advantages: (1) Users can obtain animatable 3D models of the arbitrary objects in improved quality from their casual videos, (2) users can manipulate 3D models in an intuitive manner with minimal costs, and (3) users can interactively add or delete control points as necessary. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of our framework on diverse instances, in reconstruction quality, interpretability and easier manipulation. Our code is available at https://github.com/subin6/HSNB. + +Keywords: Animatable Model $\cdot$ 3D Reconstruction $\cdot$ Manipulation + +# 1 Introduction + +We have witnessed rapid development in creating animatable 3D models, which are playing vital roles in diverse industries, e.g. films, mixed reality, and games. However, such development is primarily carried out at the industry level, requiring enormous labor costs and a level of proficiency. Most of the general users, on the other hand, remain distant from this industry-level advancement, demanding more simplified ways to obtain animatable models. Recent methods [18,32,50,51] have suggested an alternative yet effective approach for general users: building animatable models from casually captured videos. + +These methods employed the framework of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) [25] with various forms of controllable deformation models to handle the motions between frames. While a number of research [18, 32, 33, 42] adopted predefined or hand-crafted templates, e.g. skeletons [18, 32, 51] and 3D body models [33, 42], we stand for utilizing a set of Gaussian ellipsoids as control points, + +![](images/2e37ca7ad971c7de04527ac59b084e436b3b28ae4bf7cb3937142f4b028b9f27.jpg) +Fig. 1: We aim to reconstruct animatable models that can be manipulated in a coarse-to-fine manner, using multiple videos capturing a deformable object. The resulting 3D model can be manipulated using a hierarchical deformation model, where coarse motions are manipulated using the parent bones, and fine motions are subdivided by the child bones. We present manipulation results in novel poses. + +![](images/cbc2a17887485e7c15e4a56ec0dd87cee8924cc54f1df215f808df178f52a717.jpg) + +![](images/5074dde7c5eeb8e9a76f3aec11e5a9da1664a80e8a3883a197618f057376564b.jpg) + +![](images/b2181cb45d9838ae777f3f3ff0eec7bcffb27854419faebfe198bada0a3d351e.jpg) + +as in BANMo [50]. These ellipsoids, so-called bones, offer a way to acquire articulated 3D models without being constrained to prior knowledge. Despite their general applicability, utilizing these bones as "control points" poses challenges in actual manipulation. This is due to the absence of structures, as these bones are distributed across the object surfaces without considering the granularity of movements, lacking correlations between bones with similar motions. Such an unstructured property also leaves room for improvement in reconstruction quality, often requiring plenty of input videos to produce plausible results. + +In this paper, we present a framework for creating and easily manipulating 3D models of arbitrary objects from casual videos. We build our framework upon BANMo [50], with careful consideration to tailoring control points into well-structured forms. To provide better understanding of motions and facilitate easier manipulation of the reconstructed objects, our structured deformation model aims to decompose the motions, capture shared movements based on the granularity, and identify correlations among parts with similar motions. + +To achieve this goal, we introduce a novel hierarchical bone system that represents object deformations with tree-structured bones. Our key idea is to learn the deformations in a coarse-to-fine manner: parent bones capture coarse motions of broader regions, with each child bone representing finer motion at a more specific part. We begin with a small number of bones, covering coarse parts, and gradually append child bones to cover finer motions of more specific parts. The resulting tree-structured bones identify connections between relevant bones in a fully unsupervised manner. These connections facilitate users to easily understand the structures of the motions and provide better interpretability, as well as improving reconstruction quality. + +Furthermore, we suggest a regularization approach where bones are positioned at the centers of their respective parts. This is achieved using bone masks derived from the bone occupancy function and foreground masks of the objects. Instead of placing them around the surfaces as in previous methods, we extend the concept widely used in part-based generative methods [12, 30, 36] into our reconstruction pipeline for animatable models. Our bone regularization term + +prevents surfaces of the same part from being assigned to different bones. This facilitates our hierarchical bones to correctly capture the parts sharing motions, ensuring each bone can serve as a basis for the motions of each part. + +Coupling these key ideas, the structured control points in our framework provide a more user-friendly tool for creating and manipulating 3D models with several clear advantages: + +- Obtaining animatable 3D models of improved quality from casual videos. +- Manipulating 3D models in an intuitive manner with minimal effort. +- Interactively adding or deleting control points in desired parts. + +We evaluate the effectiveness of our method through extensive experiments on various instances, showcasing high-quality results of the models as well as interpretable and structured control points. We also demonstrate the manipulation capability of our framework through reanimation and manipulation results. + +# 2 Related Work + +Dynamic 3D Reconstruction. Dynamic reconstruction [6,8,9,15,21,53] aims to reconstruct per-frame 3D geometry from a given video sequence. Recently, inspired by NeRF [25], its dynamic variant has significantly improved this field using only RGB videos. These dynamic methods, known as Dynamic NeRFs, can be broadly categorized into two streams. Firstly, deformation-based methods [28,29,34,37] learn canonical NeRFs and per-frame deformation fields from the observation space to the canonical space simultaneously. Another line of approaches [7,10,11,19,20,44] involve learning time-conditioned NeRFs, which take time and 3D position as input and directly output color and density. Despite impressive results of such dynamic methods, the implicit learning of deformations makes it challenging to manipulate scenes into novel poses. + +Animatable Object Reconstruction. Reconstructing animatable objects is a longstanding challenge in computer vision and graphics. Its goal is to reconstruct 3D models with accurate geometry that can be manipulated into novel poses. Category-specific approaches have been extensively studied with category-level templates. Model-based methods [1-3,22,33] represent input motions using 3D deformable models [4,5,23,31,45], while skeleton-based methods [18,32,35,42,43,51] utilize skeletons. Recent advances in NeRF have also spurred active research in these approaches [18,22,32,33,35,42,51]. However, acquiring these category-specific templates necessitates either extensive 3D scan data or thorough annotation of the respective category. Such templates limits general applicability of these methods across diverse types of objects. + +On the other hand, category-agnostic methods [17, 48-50] propose reconstructing animatable 3D objects from videos by learning control points simultaneously with the 3D shape, bypassing the need for predefined templates. Among these methods, BANMo [50] demonstrates promising results using a NeRF-based 3D model and linear blend skinning with implicitly learned bones. Successive researches have attempted to improve BANMo in various aspects, including root + +pose decomposition [41], incomplete view coverage [38], and text-to-4D generation [40]. Orthogonal to these attempts, our method aims to improve deformation modeling to address challenge of manipulation capability, which is a crucial aspect but has received relatively little attention. + +Part-level representation. Contrary to research that utilizes low-level primitives to represent motions of objects, there have been studies [12-14, 27, 30, 36] focusing on learning partial representations of 3D shapes using low-level primitives such as ellipsoids, spheres, and cubes. In these approaches, objects are composed of multiple primitives, where each primitive represents semantic parts of the object and models shapes of it. The part-based generative models are learned from a collection of data on the single class, aiming for shape abstraction [12], part understanding [13, 30], and part-based shape editing [14, 36]. We draw inspiration from this line of works to regularize our deformation parameters to be aligned with the shapes of objects, ensuring proper decomposition of motions. Furthermore, our deformation model provides hierarchical structures of primitives for motions, allowing manipulation in a coarse-to-fine manner. + +# 3 Proposed Method + +Our goal is to construct a framework for creating 3D animatable models of articulated objects from casually captured videos, offering structured bones for easier manipulation. We first deliver preliminaries [50] (Sec. 3.1), and then introduce our key components, hierarchical deformation model (Sec. 3.2), and bone occupancy function (Sec. 3.3). The overall process is outlined in Fig. 2 (a). Our method extends the overall framework of BANMo [50], with a key difference being our hierarchical deformation model and bone occupancy function. + +# 3.1 Preliminary + +BANMo [50] proposes to reconstruct animatable 3D models from RGB videos through the NeRF [25] framework. It comprises the time-invariant canonical model and the time-variant deformation model, where the deformation is defined by ellipsoidal bones and the neural skinning weight module. Given monocular RGB videos, these bones are responsible for deforming rays at each frame to the canonical pose. Then the canonical model represents the shape and the appearance of the deformed rays in the canonical pose. All components are jointly optimized together through the differentiable volume rendering. + +Canonical Model represents the shape and appearance of an object as NeRFs, $g_{c}:(\mathbf{x}^{c},\mathbf{d})\to (\mathbf{c},\sigma)$ , which takes 3D point $\mathbf{x}^c = (x,y,z)$ in the canonical space and viewing direction $\mathbf{d} = (\phi ,\theta)$ as inputs, and produces color $\mathbf{c} = (r,g,b)$ and density $\sigma$ . Following VolSDF [52], the SDF value $s$ is produced for mesh extraction, then $s$ is transformed into $\sigma$ as $\sigma = \alpha \left(\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2} sgn(-s)\big(1 - exp(-\frac{| - s|}{\beta})\big)\right)$ , where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are learnable parameters. + +Volume Rendering.

These values are composited to render the color of $r^t$ through the volume rendering: + +$$ +\hat {C} \left(r ^ {t}\right) = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \tau_ {i} \left(1 - e x p \left(- \sigma_ {i} \delta_ {i}\right)\right) c _ {i}, \tag {1} +$$ + +where $\tau = \exp(-\sum_{j=1}^{i-1} \sigma_j \delta_j)$ is the accumulated transmittance and $\delta_i$ is the distance between adjacent samples. The overall components are optimized by minimizing the differences of colors between rendered frames and given videos. + +# 3.2 Hierarchical Neural Deformation Model + +To represent motions with coarse-to-fine granularity, we introduce a hierarchical neural deformation model, as depicted in Fig. 2 (b). It takes time embedding vectors for each frame as input, and produces neural bone hierarchy for the frame. Neural bone hierarchy defines bones as Gaussian ellipsoids, with parent bones capturing coarse motions at larger regions and child bones capturing finer motions at more specific parts. + +To deform a 3D point $\mathbf{x}^t$ to canonical space, we compute poses of the leaf bones of neural bone hierarchy $\mathcal{P}^t = \{T_1^t,\dots,T_B^t\}$ at time $t$ , where $T_{b}^{t}\in SE(3)$ refers composited rigid transformation parameters through the bone hierarchy formulation for the $b$ -th bone. From those parameters, the mappings between $\mathcal{P}^t$ and the canonical poses $\mathcal{P}^c$ are defined as + +$$ +T _ {b} ^ {t \rightarrow c} = T _ {b} ^ {c} \cdot (T _ {b} ^ {t}) ^ {- 1}, \quad T _ {b} ^ {c \rightarrow t} = T _ {b} ^ {t} \cdot (T _ {b} ^ {c}) ^ {- 1}. \qquad (2) +$$ + +Subsequently, the skinning weight $w(\mathbf{x}^t,\mathcal{P}^t)$ of $\mathbf{x}^t$ is computed through the skinning weight module. We define the backward warping matrix $\mathcal{W}_{\mathbf{x}}^{t\to c}$ from time $t$ to the canonical space by linear blend skinning (LBS) with $w$ and $T$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {W} ^ {t \rightarrow c} = \sum_ {b = 1} ^ {B} w _ {b} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {t}, \mathcal {P} ^ {t}\right) \cdot T _ {b} ^ {t \rightarrow c}, \tag {3} +$$ + +![](images/b91bfdb9194a2ad60b900a0b9c55cfcf176ca0809de990c04e6349c3c6c366b4.jpg) +Fig. 3: Bone hierarchy diagram. Subordinate bones inherit the motion of all their parent bones (orange line). The leaf bones are used in calculating the skinning weights (blue line). Bones are gradually added during the optimization. After the optimization, users can add or delete the bones in desired regions. + +![](images/eaf3cc5645cb124a158842785f9ad43f6cce3aa7c98c7c3c18c9d1a21e49bfb2.jpg) + +![](images/917ac2ac7a16312f16274586a7dac3789e34032c5aff8343e2325cae97f2496f.jpg) + +where $w_{b}$ is the $b$ -th dimension of $w$ . With the warping field, $\mathbf{x}^t$ is deformed to the canonical space as $\mathbf{x}^{c} = \mathcal{W}^{t\to c}\mathbf{x}^{t}$ . As the rigid transformation $T$ is invertible, we can compute the forward warping matrix from the canonical space to time $t$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {W} ^ {c \rightarrow t} = \sum_ {b = 1} ^ {B} w _ {b} \left(\mathbf {x} ^ {c}, \mathcal {P} ^ {c}\right) \cdot T _ {b} ^ {c \rightarrow t}. \tag {4} +$$ + +Bone Hierarchy. For a structured representation of motions, we organize neural bones in a tree-like structure, where child bones inherit the motions of their parents before making fine-grained movements. The diagram of bone hierarchy is depicted in Fig. 3. Specifically, for a specific bone at depth $d$ , the final transformation $T$ in the world coordinate system is composed by left-multiplying its corresponding parent transformations at previous depths in a recursive way: + +$$ +T ^ {d} = \hat {T} ^ {1} \hat {T} ^ {2} \dots \hat {T} ^ {d - 1} \hat {T} ^ {d}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\hat{T}^d$ is the local transformation of the bone at depth $d$ . Since the transformations define the center and orient of the bone, this arrangement ensures child bones are defined in the local coordinate system of their parents. Starting with a small number of bones at depth 1, as optimization proceeds, each bone is subdivided into child bones of smaller regions with finer-grained motion. + +Neural Bone Representation. We follow a line of previous works [48-50] and employ 3D Gaussian ellipsoids as the primitives of our bones. Each bone consists of the rotation $R \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ , the center $\mathbf{t} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ at each time step, and a shared scale vector $\mathbf{s} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ across all time steps. These are regressed by the MLP $f$ from the embedding vector $e^t$ for each time $t$ . We employ separate MLP $f^d$ for each depth, which takes the embedding of the previous parent bone $e^{t,d}$ and the root embedding $e^{t,1}$ representing global motions. The local transformation matrix $\hat{T}_i$ of $i$ -th bone can be described as + +$$ +\hat {T} _ {i} ^ {t, 1}, \mathbf {s} _ {i} ^ {t, 1} = f _ {i} ^ {1} (e ^ {t, 1}), \quad \hat {T} _ {i} ^ {t, d}, \mathbf {s} _ {i} ^ {t, d} = f _ {i} ^ {d} ([ e ^ {t, 1}, e ^ {t, d - 1} ]), \qquad (6) +$$ + +where $f_{i}^{d}$ denotes the $i$ -th dimension of the MLP output regressing bones at depth $d$ , and $i$ is a local index of the bone within its parent. The MLP $f^{d}$ outputs the geometric properties of all child bones at depth $d$ . + +**Skinning Weight Module.** Each point $\mathbf{x}$ is deformed by LBS with the transformation of leaf bones. The skinning weight of $b$ -th leaf bone is defined as + +$$ +w _ {b} = \frac {\exp \left(- d _ {M} (\mathbf {x} , b) + \Delta w _ {b}\right)}{\sum_ {i = 1} ^ {B} \exp \left(- d _ {M} (\mathbf {x} , b) + \Delta w _ {b})\right)}, \tag {7} +$$ + +$$ +d _ {M} (\mathbf {x}, b) = \sqrt {\left(\mathbf {x} - \mathbf {t} _ {b}\right) ^ {T} R _ {b} ^ {T} S _ {b} R _ {b} \left(\mathbf {x} - \mathbf {t} _ {b}\right)}, \tag {8} +$$ + +where $d_M(\mathbf{x},b)$ denotes the mahalanobis distance between $\mathbf{x}$ and $b$ -th ellipsoidal bone, and $\Delta w_{b}$ denotes delta skinning weights computed through MLP, as in [50]. Manipulation. With the optimized models, users can manipulate the object into desired poses. To do this, a canonical mesh is extracted by querying the canonical model and applying the marching cube algorithm [24]. The manipulation of broad movements, which involves the motion of numerous subparts, is achieved by adjusting the parent bones, while finely-tuned motion can be easily achieved by adjusting only the sub-bones. The canonical mesh is deformed using forward warping in Eq. (4) with the new transformation parameters. + +# 3.3 Regularizing with Bone Occupancy Function + +One of the challenges in constructing a bone hierarchy lies in determining the location and the shape of the bones. Previous work [50] regularizes bone centers using Sinkhorn divergence, yet orients and scales remain under-constrained. Consequently, bones are scattered across surfaces and often larger than objects, hindering interpretability and subdivision into finer regions. To address this challenge, motivated by part-based generative methods [12, 13, 30], we propose regularization terms to align the properties of bones (center, orient, scale) with the shape of objects. The core component of our regularization is the bone occupancy function, which utilizes the mahalanobis distance $d_{M}(\mathbf{x}, b)$ used in the skinning weight module for identifying the occupancy. + +Bone occupancy. We first model the bone occupancy function $g_{b}$ , which determines the relative position with respect to the surface of bones: + +$$ +g _ {b} (\mathbf {x}) = d _ {M} (\mathbf {x}, b) - \gamma , \tag {9} +$$ + +where $\gamma$ is a predefined threshold. Points inside the bone yield negative values for $\mathrm{g}(\mathbf{x})$ , while points outside the bone result in positive values. We further transform $g(x)$ into the density function $\sigma(\frac{-g(x)}{\tau})$ , which approximates 1 when $\mathbf{x}$ is inside the bone. Here, $\sigma$ is a sigmoid function, and $\tau$ is a temperature value determining the sharpness of the boundary. The bone occupancy function provides ways to relate the locations of the bones with the shapes of the objects. + +Bone mask. To determine whether a 3D point $\mathbf{x}$ is inside any bones, we define a unified bone occupancy function $G(\mathbf{x})$ by aggregating $g_{b}(\mathbf{x})$ of all bones: + +$$ +G (\mathbf {x}) = \min _ {b \in 1, \dots B} g _ {b} (\mathbf {x}). \tag {10} +$$ + +With the density obtained from $G(\mathbf{x})$ , we construct 2D bone masks $M_{\text{bone}}$ by accumulating density values along the ray. We compute the bone mask loss by comparing them with object mask $M_{GT}$ as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {b o n e}} = \sum \left| \left| M _ {\text {b o n e}} - M _ {G T} \right| \right| ^ {2}. \tag {11} +$$ + +By regularizing through the bone mask loss, we constrain the location and shape of bones to align with the actual shape of the objects. + +Overlap & coverage loss. We further regularize the properties of bones based on the bone occupancy function. We extract surface points $\mathcal{V}$ of the canonical model $g_{c}(\cdot)$ by applying the marching cube algorithm to the output. From the points in $\mathcal{V}$ , we impose an overlap loss, enforcing that each point is occupied by a maximum of $\lambda$ number of bones: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {o v e r l a p}} = \frac {1}{| \mathcal {V} |} \sum_ {\mathbf {x} \in \mathcal {V}} \max \left(0, \sum_ {b = 1} ^ {B} \sigma \left(\frac {- g _ {b} (x)}{\tau}\right) - \lambda\right). \tag {12} +$$ + +In addition, we apply a coverage loss to ensure that each bone occupies a certain portion of the entire region: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {c o v e r}} = \sum_ {b = 1} ^ {B} \sum_ {\mathbf {x} \in \mathcal {N}} \left(\max \left(0, g _ {b} (x)\right)\right), \tag {13} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{N}$ denotes the N closest points among $\nu$ with respect to mahalanobis distance $d_{M}(\mathbf{x},b)$ to the bone. + +# 3.4 Optimization + +Our overall system is optimized on given monocular RGB videos, including 2D masks, optical flows, and dense-CSE features extracted from them. We compute the reconstruction loss term $\mathcal{L}_{\text{recon}}$ and cycle loss term $\mathcal{L}_{\text{cycle}}$ in BANMo [50], incorporating additional loss terms related to bones: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {r e c o n}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c y c l e}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {b o n e}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {o v e r l a p}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {c o v e r}}. \tag {14} +$$ + +We refer to Supplement for a more detailed description of $\mathcal{L}_{\text{recon}}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{\text{cycle}}$ . + +Coarse-to-fine motion optimization. To optimize the hierarchical neural deformation system, we propose a coarse-to-fine motion optimization scheme. We initially optimize depth-1 bones that are responsible for coarse motion with larger region. During the optimization, we gradually add child bones to the previous bones to progressively capture fine motions. + +Implementation details. In the optimization process, we start with five initial bones for animals and six for humans. After establishing the initial set of bones (parent bones), two additional bones (child bones) are added to each of the existing bones in subsequent stages. The optimization for each depth involves 20k iterations. We use two NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 GPUs for the optimization, and each stage takes less than 3 hours in our environment. Please refer Supplement to more implementation details. + +Table 1: Quantitative results on Eagle and AMA. * indicates methods that utilize predefined skeletons for optimization.

AMA haman dataset [39] includes multi-view videos capturing actor performances. We use Swing and Samba sequences for our evaluation on humans, and treat them as monocular videos. We also use Eagle and Cat data from BANMo dataset [50] for animals. Eagle contains videos that are rendered with an animated 3D eagle model, while Cat contains casually captured monocular videos. In the preprocessing phase, we utilize off-the-shelf models, specifically PointRend [16], VCN-robust [47], and CSE [26], to extract object masks, optical flow, and CSE features. We employ the videos of Swing, Samba, and Eagle for quantitative evaluation by comparing them to the ground-truth 3D mesh. We provide more descriptions of datasets and results of diverse animal species in Supplement. + +Metrics. We evaluate the quality of reconstructed 3D objects with the following criteria. Chamfer Distance (CD) measures the average distance between the ground truth mesh and the estimated surface points. We additionally measure F-score at distance thresholds $d = 2\%$ (F2) of the longest edge of the axis-aligned object bounding box. Due to the scale ambiguity, we align the estimated 3D mesh to the ground-truth mesh using Iterative Closest Point before evaluation. + +Baselines. We compare our results with both template-free methods [49,50] and skeleton-based method [17,51]. ViSER [49] reconstructs 3D articulated objects by learning deformation parameters guided by video-specific surface embeddings. They utilize 36 ellipsoidal bones for optimization. BANMo [50] estimates the pose of the objects using Gaussian ellipsoid bones with canonical NeRF. Total 25 bones are used for all categories of objects. CAMM [17] utilizes kinematic chains from RigNet [46] on top of BANMo to mitigate the challenges associated with manipulating Gaussian bones. Finally, RAC [51] reconstructs category-level 3D models. RAC uses pre-defined skeleton and learns to capture videospecific morphology from videos of diverse instances within the same category. + +# 4.2 3D Reconstruction + +Quantitative comparison.

Due to the absence of the skeleton for eagles, results of RAC on Eagle are omitted. As shown in Table 1, our approach outperforms all template-free methods across all datasets. We also achieve comparable results with skeleton-based baselines without exploiting predefined structural knowledge. It is worth noting that our method achieves comparable or better results on Eagle using fewer control points compared to other baselines. Our method uses only 10 leaf bones for Eagle, whereas other baselines use 25 or more bones to represent deformation. This demonstrates the efficacy of our structured deformation model in capturing motions with reduced control points, achieving compelling results and potentially improving manipulation interfaces for users. + +Qualitative comparison. Fig. 4 describes 3D reconstruction results on Samba, Cat, and Eagle datasets. Our method accurately reconstructs the 3D models with details. ViSER shows over-smoothed results with inaccurate poses, which can be attributed to their explicit meshes as shape model and the lack of the ability to aggregate multiple videos. Methods exploiting NeRF and multiple videos, on the other hand, achieve compelling reconstruction results. Methods leveraging predefined skeletons for deformations (RAC and CAMM) generally perform well in capturing poses. However, they have difficulty in accurately representing fine details of the motions which are absent in their templates, e.g. skirts of the Samba dataset.

As can be seen, our bones are aligned within the body, each of which sufficiently covers the parts of the objects. Our coarse bones capture the parts in a more broader context, e.g. the upper body of Samba, the wings of Eagle. Our child bones in deeper levels sub-divide these coarse parts and represent finer motions at more specific components of the objects. This can be also clearly seen in Fig. 7 (a), where bones assigned to the same parent exhibit strong correlations in movements. In contrast, the resulting control points of BANMo are scattered across the object surfaces without considering the structure and the granularity of motions, resulting in difficulty of understanding and animating the 3D models. The bone hierarchy of our system provides organized control points for the deformations, enhancing understanding of controls and a more user-friendly manipulation experience. + +# 4.3 Neural Rendering + +We compare the rendered results with NeRF-based methods.

+ +# 4.4 Reanimation + +We further compare the reanimation capability and effectiveness of the learned control points against BANMo [50]. To this end, we conduct optimization-based motion retargeting experiments, following a previous work [43]. Given canonical shapes and corresponding bone parameters, the objective is to retarget the pose of models to a new target pose through bone adjustments. Specifically, the transform parameters of bones are optimized to minimize CD between predicted and target shapes while preserving fixed canonical shape and skinning weights. We rig the ground truth mesh of Samba and craft a sequence of 150 frames depicting a novel motion. We also provide results with various optimization steps (per frame) to illustrate the speed at which we can achieve a target pose. + +As shown in Fig. 5 (b), we achieve convincing results with fewer optimization steps, thanks to our structured property that moves larger regions with similar motion simultaneously. As the number of steps increases, the fine details of the poses are further refined. In contrast, BANMo struggles with handling large motions (e.g., seating, as in the first pose), leading to collapsed body structures. Table 3 presents a quantitative comparison of the retargeted objects. We outperform the baseline at all steps, particularly with a significant margin at a small number of steps, implying better animating capability of our method. + +# 4.5 Manipulation + +We demonstrate the capability of our method in manipulating a diverse set of objects. The core advantage of our approach is that it provides a coarse-to-fine manipulation, providing easier manipulation for users. We deliver the example results of the manipulation using our framework in Fig. 6. Thanks to our tree-structured control points, we can animate various poses with a minimal number of actions. For instance, we can animate the human and cat to sit using only depth-1 bones (coarsest level), with total 5 movements.

In addition, as our deformation model gradually captures the coarse-to-fine structures of the motions, we can flexibly add or delete some of the bones if necessary (Fig. 3). If users want to add more control points on the tail of the cat, to better capture detailed motions of it, it can be easily achieved by appending child bones to the corresponding bone. Note that such dynamic control over the number of bones is not feasible within the framework of BANMo, as its bones lack structure, making it challenging to determine the locations of new bones. We refer to Supplement for the results of dynamic addition and deletion of the bones. + +# 4.6 Ablation Study + +Hierarchical neural deformation model. We ablate our hierarchical neural deformation model by gradually increasing the depths (\#depths = 1, 2, 3). We compare this to the models without our hierarchy system, which use the same number of bones in one depth (\#bones = 12, 24). As reported in Table 5, even when using the same number of bones, the model with our hierarchy system yields much improved quantitative results. This indicates that capturing coarse motions at the beginning and progressively refining fine-grained movements is more effective in optimizing motions. Such progressive procedure is more depicted in Fig. 7 (a). In the case of Samba, our system first assigns a single bone + +to the entire leg. As the depth increases, this coarse bone is sub-divided into more specific parts, e.g. the calf and the foot, providing correlations between bones with similar motions. + +Bone Regularization. We then conduct the ablation on the bone regularization terms. We compare our model with (1) the model without regularization (No regularization) and (2) the model optimized with Sinkhorn divergence, as in previous work [50]. To explore the effects more clearly, we compare these models without our hierarchy system (\#depths = 1). We deliver the results using 6 and 24 bones, which represent an insufficient and a sufficient number of bones to capture the motions, respectively. Table 5 and Fig. 7 (b) present quantitative and qualitative results. The model regularized with our bone mask loss achieves better results compared to the Sinkhorn divergence loss. Interestingly, in some cases, the model without regularization delivers the best results. Despite its quantitative results, as shown in Fig. 7 (b), bones optimized without any regularization tend to float outside of the body, making it challenging to discern which bone is responsible for a specific part. The bones regularized with our bone regularization effectively captures motions while being more appropriately placed, achieving improvement when combined with our hierarchy system. + +Number of input videos. Finally, we investigate the performance with a limited number of videos. We compare the results on Samba by using a single video (1 vid), a half number of videos (4 vid), and all videos (8 vid). As shown in Table 4, we outperform baselines in all settings. BANMo suffers from correctly reconstructing models when using fewer videos, due to the absence of structures in its control points. On the other hand, our method outperforms BANMo (8 vid) with only using a half number of videos (4 vid), demonstrating the robustness and effectiveness of our structured deformation model. + +# 5 Discussion and conclusion + +We presented a new framework for creating and animating 3D models, from a set of casually captured videos. Our hierarchy neural deformation model provides a way to acquire structured bone representations, without exploiting prior structural knowledge, thereby enabling the general applicability of our method. Combined with the regularization based on the bone occupancy function, our method facilitates easier and interpretable manipulation. Our approach alleviates the requirements for obtaining animatable models of arbitrary objects, with more comprehensive control points that truly function as "control points". + +Limitation and future works. While our structured deformation model provides connections between the bones having similar movements, we expect the motions of the articulated objects can be better captured by the dynamic discovery of joints and conjunction. Moreover, extending our framework to scenes having multiple objects is a worth exploring subject, which we plan to resolve in our future research. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported by Institute of Information & communications Technology Planning & Evaluation (IITP) grant funded by the Korea government(MSIT) (No.2022-0-00124), the National Research Foundation of Korea(NRF) grant funded by the Korea government(MSIT) (NRF- 2022R1A2C2004509), and Institute of Information & communications Technology Planning & Evaluation (IITP) grant funded by the Korea government(MSIT) (Artificial Intelligence Graduate School Program, Yonsei University, under Grant 2020-0-01361). + +# References + +1.

We propose a new framework for creating and easily manipulating 3D models of arbitrary objects using casually captured videos. Our core ingredient is a novel hierarchy deformation model, which captures motions of objects with a tree-structured bones. Our hierarchy system decomposes motions based on the granularity and reveals the correlations between parts without exploiting any prior structural knowledge. We further propose to regularize the bones to be positioned at the basis of motions, centers of parts, sufficiently covering related surfaces of the part. This is achieved by our bone occupancy function, which identifies whether a given 3D point is placed within the bone. Coupling the proposed components, our framework offers several clear advantages: (1) Users can obtain animatable 3D models of the arbitrary objects in improved quality from their casual videos, (2) users can manipulate 3D models in an intuitive manner with minimal costs, and (3) users can interactively add or delete control points as necessary. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of our framework on diverse instances, in reconstruction quality, interpretability and easier manipulation.

To address this challenge, motivated by part-based generative methods [12, 13, 30], we propose regularization terms to align the properties of bones (center, orient, scale) with the shape of objects.

Our approach alleviates the requirements for obtaining animatable models of arbitrary objects, with more comprehensive control points that truly function as \"control points\"." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 480, + 664 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 480, + 664 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 594, + 480, + 664 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Limitation and future works.

GET3D [13] is the first method capable of generating explicit free-topology textured shapes in an end-to-end manner. It incorporates a hybrid tri-plane representation together with a differentiable marching tetrahedron layer into a StyleGAN2 for end-to-end single-class textured shape generation.

Also, a triplane stands as the latent representation and is fed through a diffusion UNet [37] for generation purposes. It utilizes Objaverse for pretraining and then finetunes the model on ShapeNetV2, achieving well generalizability on multi-class conditional generation. However, the limitations of 3DGen lie in the design of the autoencoding stage. It also uses the UNet structure for encoding and decoding, which keeps the resolution of the triplane but hinders the optimization of the latent diffusion model.

Syncdreamer is trained on the whole Objaverse. Since all of these methods use different training datasets, we only aim to illustrate typical strengths and problems among current methods. As shown in Fig. 5, Sparse3D could generate topologies like man-made shapes but fails to generate accurate texture based on the conditioned image.

Experiments on the single-class unconditional setting, multi-class conditional setting, and open-vocabulary conditional setting demonstrate the superiority of Sparse3D. Although we take a step further on textured shape generation on large-scale scenarios and produce shapes similar to man-made ones, the data limitation of 3D generation has not been fully resolved yet and the generalizability of Sparse3D is relatively weak when compared with NVs methods.

It incorporates a hybrid tri-plane representation together with a differentiable marching tetrahedron layer into a StyleGAN2 for end-to-end single-class textured shape generation. Since massive 3D contents collected from websites are hard to align, the camera pose-conditioned paradigm of GET3D can not be generalized to multiclass and open-vocabulary scenarios. Another work that should be noticed and most similar to our approach is 3DGen [14], which utilizes a triplane-based Variational AutoEncoder(VAE) to convert the dense point clouds to tetrahedron meshes. Also, a triplane stands as the latent representation and is fed through a diffusion UNet [37] for generation purposes. It utilizes Objaverse for pretraining and then finetunes the model on ShapeNetV2, achieving well generalizability on multi-class conditional generation. However, the limitations of 3DGen lie in the design of the autoencoding stage. It also uses the UNet structure for encoding and decoding, which keeps the resolution of the triplane but hinders the optimization of the latent diffusion model.

The reasons behind this are two-fold: 1) Objaverse contains various materials that will set obstacles for us to obtain the ground-truth renderings using open-source rendering engines like Blender; 2) Objaverse contains more complicated samples than CAD models in ShapeNetV2.

Syncdreamer is trained on the whole Objaverse. Since all of these methods use different training datasets, we only aim to illustrate typical strengths and problems among current methods. As shown in Fig. 5, Sparse3D could generate topologies like man-made shapes but fails to generate accurate texture based on the conditioned image. We empirically find that an unaligned dataset(Objaverse) will cause ambiguity in image-3D alignment since two objects with the same topology but different rotations are treated as distinct objects in networks.

Experiments on the single-class unconditional setting, multi-class conditional setting, and open-vocabulary conditional setting demonstrate the superiority of Sparse3D. Although we take a step further on textured shape generation on large-scale scenarios and produce shapes similar to man-made ones, the data limitation of 3D generation has not been fully resolved yet and the generalizability of Sparse3D is relatively weak when compared with NVs methods.

All models are exported using an UV unwrapper xatlas [39] and rendered using Mitsuba [16]. + +Abstract. 3D vision is inherently characterized by sparse spatial structures, which propels the necessity for an efficient paradigm tailored to 3D generation. Another discrepancy is the amount of training data, which undeniably affects generalization if we only use limited 3D data. To solve these, we design a 3D generation framework that maintains most of the building blocks of StableDiffusion with minimal adaptations for textured shape generation. We design a Sparse Encoding Module for details preservation and an Adversarial Decoding Module for better shape recovery. Moreover, we clean up data and build a benchmark on the biggest 3D dataset (Objaverse). We drop the concept of 'specific class' and treat the 3D Textured Shapes Generation as an open-vocabulary problem. We + +first validate our network design on ShapeNetV2 with 55K samples on single-class unconditional generation and multi-class conditional generation tasks. Then we report metrics on processed G-Objaverse with 200K samples on the image conditional generation task. Extensive experiments demonstrate our proposal outperforms SOTA methods and takes a further step towards open-vocabulary 3D generation. We release the processed data at https://aigc3d.github.io/gobjaverse/. + +Keywords: 3D Generation $\cdot$ Sparse Encoding $\cdot$ Adversarial Decoding + +# 1 Introduction + +The vision community has witnessed the great success of 2D artificial intelligence-generated content (AIGC) methods such as StableDiffusion [36] and GigaGAN [18]. This encourages us to rethink what we need to enable 3D generation. + +When adding another dimension to the 2D generation task, the space complexity increases from $O^2$ to $O^3$ , leading to significant computation growth. Therefore, 3D assets are more difficult to fit into the neural networks than 2D assets. Sparsity is a distinct attribute of 3D vision that has been utilized in large-scale scene perception tasks like 3D detection and semantic segmentation of point clouds but merely discussed in 3D generation. Our key motivation in this paper, however, is that sparsity is vital for 3D generation, especially when we need to generate high-frequency textures simultaneously. + +Signed Distance Function (SDF) [7,8,29], and Occupancy [44,55,59] are typical dense representations in 3D generation. Although they have advantages in accurate shape modeling, their shortcomings are memory costing and inaccurate alignment to texture, which limits their performance in textured shape generation. Methods using point clouds as representation are naturally sparse, yet they lose detailed structure information. To recover the structural information, conversions from sparse space to dense space and then reversely from dense space to sparse space are used for point cloud applications and demonstrate the highest quality of generated shapes [25,49,60]. To avoid the laborious conversion, Sparse Convolution Networks [10, 47] are proposed to directly process sparse point clouds, which demonstrate state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on large-scale vision perception tasks [15, 27]. Hence in this work, we propose to use a sparse encoding module to alleviate the high computation complexity in 3D shape compression. Since we use a sparse encoding module to extract per-coordinate features, these features can be further projected to 2D planes by predefined angles. Then these 2D feature planes can be compressed by general 2D encoders. + +A key difference with the geometry generation task is that we need to simultaneously generate the high-frequency texture attached to the underlying low-frequency geometry. Unlike previous geometry generation methods [7,8,29, 44,55,59] which use thousands of points or a low-resolution feature volume as feed-forward representation, texture generation requires the high-frequency surface color features to be maintained as much as possible. Although the sparse + +![](images/1756bca7bcdc29f1f241fc4bb2160a7946fcc72f8dd6f4734cca8ea2003a8cc0.jpg) +Fig. 2: We manually split Objaverse into 10 general classes as the color bands depict. Note we do not use the Building&&Outdoor and PoorQuality classes, since we empirically find that they are harmful to model convergence and we put further analysis in the appendix. By splitting Objaverse into general classes, we can build a benchmark on it, which we have achieved by shuffling class data and splitting it into certain proportions respectively for training, validation, and testing. + +encoding module can preserve most of the information, the regularization item (KL-divergence) on the latent space will block the feature flow to a certain extent. To recover the lost information, we introduce a Dual MarchingCube layer [41] on the decoding stage which can render and extract textured shapes differentiably and we further conduct extra adversarial training [36] on the renderings to enhance the texture quality. We adopt the naive StableDiffusion framework which sets up a diffusion model in the latent space for generation purpose and greatly reduces the computation resources needed. Compared with StableDiffusion, the differences are the conversion from 3D dense point clouds to 2D feature planes in the encoding stage and the conversion from 2D feature planes to 3D textured shapes in the decoding stage. With minimal modifications and enhancements, our framework can generate a batch of high-fidelity textured shapes in less than 5 seconds using a DDIM [46] sampler. + +We formulate our design theoretically and experimentally validate it on the public benchmark ShapeNetV2 [4] and further scale up it to Objaverse [11]. During our experiment, we clean the Objaverse dataset and manually label 10 general classes which gives about $200\mathrm{K}$ samples as depicted in Fig. 2. We split 8 general classes into train/val/test splits and built a benchmark for the evaluation of open-vocabulary image-conditional generation. We conduct three kinds of experiments to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method including single-class un + +conditional generation, multi-class conditional generation, and open-vocabulary image-conditional generation. Experiments on both datasets demonstrate the fidelity and variety of our generated samples. We claim our main contributions include: + +1) We analyze and propose a novel sparse encoding and dense decoding paradigm (Sparse3D) that can achieve both high-fidelity single-class generation and open-vocabulary 3D textured shapes generation. +2) We manually filter out and split the Objaverse dataset into 10 general classes (200K shapes) and construct a benchmark (G-Objaverse) for open-vocabulary 3D textured shapes generation. +3) We demonstrate SOTA performance on both datasets and we conduct extensive experiments to confirm the insight of design. We also further give an outlook on future works. + +# 2 Related Work + +Geometry Generation Many works in the 3D vision community seek to solve problems with geometry first. Also in the generation task, pioneer works mainly focus on the geometry structure, where various representations are applied. Methods which adopt point cloud [53,54,60], occupancy [28,33,40,44], and signed distance function (SDF) [7,9,12,59] are mainly geometry-only. Although they are short of generating texture for the underlying representation, their generations can potentially maintain the quality of man-made shapes, which is of vital importance for subsequent manipulation like texturing or editing. A potential improvement in the geometry-only generation is the adaptation to large-scale 3D datasets like Objaverse [11], which currently may be hindered by the uneven quality of its 3D assets. + +Texture Generation As a complementary part of works on geometry generation, texture generation aims to generate feasible texture on fixed geometry given text prompts. From rendering-based [45], inpainting-based [5] to optimization-based [1, 58] methods, they are faced with the challenge of keeping multi-view consistency, which we believe can be relieved by introducing explicit 3D inductive bias (Objaverse). Approaches like a multi-view consistent depth inpainting ControlNet or a 3D-conditioned (voxel or SDF) ControlNet can potentially improve the consistency of texture generation. However, all these potential improvements require a large amount of clean, high-quality 3D assets, which again motivates us to select high-quality 3D assets from Objaverse. + +3D-Aware Generative Models As a twin task, novel view synthesis (NVS) focuses on the quality of multi-view renderings rather than the quality of underlying geometry and texture. Previous works [57,61] using 2D GANs for NVS often fall short in multi-view consistency. 3D-aware methods [2,3,30,32] thus adopt neural radiance fields or multi-level surfaces as their internal implicit representations, directly introducing 3D prior constraints and achieving impressive + +view synthesis quality on both object-level and scene-level. Recently we have witnessed diffusion-based NVs methods [62] like Zero123 [23], SyncDreamer [24], Consistent123 [52], Wonder3D [26] and Zero123++ [42]. Although some of them try to inject 3D-priori like coarse volume or multi-view correlations, they do not directly enforce an underlying 3D representation like previous GAN-based 3D-aware methods, which is a potential future work. A common shortcoming of NVs methods is that they need to use MarchingCubes for explicit mesh extraction first and then query the field to obtain vertex color and the best threshold for each shape needs to be dynamically adjusted, which may make the final geometry shattered. + +Lifting 2D into 3D Due to the lack of 3D assets and the strong capability of 2D generation models, some works also try to lift 2D images by rendering poses into 3D representation. DreamFusion [34] first combines neural fields with a fixed Imagen [38] and it uses score distillation loss to update the neural field according to specific prompts. Follow-up works [6, 20, 21, 35, 43, 48, 51] mainly focus on elevating the resolution of 3D representation, optimizing the stability under various text prompts, avoiding over-saturated textures, accelerating and dealing with the Janus problem. Though those methods achieve semantic control and high fidelity under some prompts, they fall short in the long optimization time and instability with random text prompts. + +Textured Shapes Generation. Recently, methods [13, 63] that can simultaneously output raw mesh and corresponding texture (i.e. Textured Shapes) come out in a 3D-supervised way. Compared with NVS methods, these methods produce more feasible topologies like man-made shapes and can also generate corresponding textures. GET3D [13] is the first method capable of generating explicit free-topology textured shapes in an end-to-end manner. It incorporates a hybrid tri-plane representation together with a differentiable marching tetrahedron layer into a StyleGAN2 for end-to-end single-class textured shape generation. Since massive 3D contents collected from websites are hard to align, the camera pose-conditioned paradigm of GET3D can not be generalized to multiclass and open-vocabulary scenarios. Another work that should be noticed and most similar to our approach is 3DGen [14], which utilizes a triplane-based Variational AutoEncoder(VAE) to convert the dense point clouds to tetrahedron meshes. Also, a triplane stands as the latent representation and is fed through a diffusion UNet [37] for generation purposes. It utilizes Objaverse for pretraining and then finetunes the model on ShapeNetV2, achieving well generalizability on multi-class conditional generation. However, the limitations of 3DGen lie in the design of the autoencoding stage. It also uses the UNet structure for encoding and decoding, which keeps the resolution of the triplane but hinders the optimization of the latent diffusion model. In our design, we show that there is no need to keep the semantic layout of projected triplanes, and we can treat the feature planes like 2D natural images in the StableDiffusion pipeline. + +![](images/a6068e32beb6693ba249016e2709b9a165673318df2ac112b6b06d2c77399d59.jpg) +Fig. 3: Sparse3D only varies with StableDiffusion in several specific components. In the input stage, a dense point cloud (with 1M to 4M points) is voxelized by a resolution of $1000^3$ , and then fed to a Sparse Convolutional Network to extract coordinate-based features. To align the huge amount of sparse features to a dense representation, we project multiple features onto specific pixel grids and compute the mean values of these features. After we translate 3D dense point clouds into 2D feature maps, we finetune the pre-trained StableDiffusion for 2D feature map generation. In the meanwhile, we decode the feature maps as explicit mesh through a differentiable mesh extraction layer (Flexicubes) and then optimize the variational autoencoder using a rendering-based reconstruction penalty. Since our output contains RGB renderings in a similar domain with natural images, we further use an N-layer discriminator for adversarial finetuning to enhance the texture quality after reconstruction converges. + +# 3 Method + +The framework of our method is illustrated in Fig. 3, which comprises three parts: Sparse Encoding, Generative Differentiable Mesh Decoding, and Latent Diffusion Module. In this section, we first present preliminaries in Sec. 3.1, after which the specific design of Sparse Encoding is stated in Sec. 3.2 and Adversarial Differentiable Mesh Decoding is stated in Sec. 3.3. Further, we introduce the LDM design of our case in Sec. 3.4. + +# 3.1 Preliminaries + +Sparse Convolution. In geometry generation, a common input consists of thousands of points, which is sufficient for geometry generation but not for texture generation. We need more input information to recover the surface texture. Traditional 3D convolutional neural networks use a unit grid as a dense representation which often leads to explosive memory growth when we increase the resolution of the unit grid. As an alternative, in large-scale scene understanding which often formulates the input as point clouds with several million points, sparse convolution is adopted to extract the structure features. For a point cloud with point coordinates $p \in \mathbf{R}^{N \times 3}$ and point features $p \in \mathbf{R}^{N \times C_f}$ , sparse convolution uses sparse structures like octree [50] or hashtable [10,47] to store these information and network operators are only applied on sparse points. To prove the necessity of using sparse convolution, we show the sparse quantization results + +in Supp-Fig. 1, which shows that it is useless if we only increase the number of input points with a low-resolution voxelization. + +Differentiable Mesh Extraction. Conversion from raw meshes to implicit fields like occupancy, signed distance function, and NeRF usually introduces computation errors, while differentiable mesh extraction demonstrates an elegant way to optimize the underlying implicit field in a probabilistic manner. In our framework, we adopt the most recent Flexicubes [41] representation as it is more elaborately designed to recover the structure details. + +# 3.2 Sparse Encoding + +For a long time, 3D representation has been fed to the network as a unit cube with much free space useless. Simply increasing the resolution of the unit cube is effective but burdens much on computation and memory. Sparsity is a unique characteristic of the real 3D world which is different from dense projections (images). Starting from sparsity, we design a Sparse Encoding Module for encoding 3D assets into latent space. The input of this module is a dense colored point cloud $p \in \mathbf{R}^{N \times 6}$ with a random number of points $N$ . We do not decline the points to a certain number like previous approaches since it is important for recovering high-frequency information (texture). We then feed the batched dense point clouds to a Sparse Convolutional Network (SCN) and obtain point-wise features. For simplicity, we directly adopt a UNet-Style SCN from MinkowskiiEngine [10]. The feature is further projected to the triplane space $f_{in} \in \mathbf{R}^{3C_f \times K_f \times K_f}$ through coordinate-based feature scatter. Then we directly apply the encoder of StableDiffusion $E_{sd}$ to $f_{in}$ , after modifying the input projection layer. The output of modified encoder $E_{sd}'$ is the concatenation of mean $\mu$ and log variance $\ln(\sigma^2)$ in a gaussian distribution. Then we employ the KL-Divergence for regularization: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {C} (\mu , l n (\sigma^ {2})) = E _ {s d} ^ {\prime} (\mathcal {P} (S (p))), \\ L _ {k l} = - \frac {1}{2 b} \sum \left(1 + \ln \left(\sigma^ {2}\right) - \mu^ {2} - \sigma^ {2}\right), \tag {1} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $S$ denotes the sparse feature extraction, $\mathcal{P}$ denotes the feature projection based on coordinates, $\mathcal{C}$ denotes concatenation, and $b$ denotes the batch size. The usage of the SCN for feature extraction is the key to maintaining dense low-level features of the high-frequency texture. + +# 3.3 Adversarial Differentiable Decoding + +Given $\mu$ and $ln(\sigma^2)$ , we apply the reparameterization trick to obtain a resampled latent code $z$ , and we also reuse the decoder structure $D_{sd}$ of StableDiffusion. We modify the output projection layer of $D_{sd}$ and denote the new non-linear transformation as $D_{sd}^{\prime}$ . The output of $D_{sd}^{\prime}$ is the concatenation of geometry feature + +planes $f_{geo} \in \mathcal{R}^{3C_{geo} \times K_f \times K_f}$ and texture feature planes $f_{tex} \in \mathcal{R}^{3C_{tex} \times K_f \times K_f}$ , sharing the same resolution $K_f$ as the input feature planes. + +We denote the geometry query positions of Flexicubes as $Q_{geo}^{fl} \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{geo}^{fl} \times 3}$ and use grid sample to query the corresponding feature in $f_{geo}$ , resulting in $f_{geo}^{Q} \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{geo}^{fl} \times C_{geo}}$ . In Flexicubes, the input of the differentiable dual marching cube layer includes the SDF, deformation, and cube weights at $Q_{geo}^{fl}$ . We thus define three MLPs for them, respectively. The above process can be written as: + +$$ +f _ {s d f} = m l p _ {s d f} \big (g s \big (f _ {g e o}, Q _ {g e o} ^ {f l} \big) \big) \in \mathcal {R} ^ {N _ {g e o} ^ {f l} \times 1}, +$$ + +$$ +f _ {d e f} = m l p _ {d e f} \left(g s \left(f _ {g e o}, Q _ {g e o} ^ {f l}\right)\right) \in \mathcal {R} ^ {N _ {g e o} ^ {f l} \times 3}, \tag {2} +$$ + +$$ +f _ {c w} = m l p _ {c w} \big (g s \big (f _ {g e o}, Q _ {g e o} ^ {f l} \big) \big) \in \mathcal {R} ^ {N _ {g e o} ^ {f l} \times 2 1}, +$$ + +where $gs$ denotes grid sample. The $f_{cw}$ in Eq. (2) has a feature dimension of 21, which is composed of $\beta \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{geo}^{fl} \times 12}$ , $\alpha \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{geo}^{fl} \times 8}$ , and $\gamma \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{geo}^{fl} \times 1}$ . $\beta, \alpha$ is used to adjust dual vertices positioning, and $\gamma$ is used to control the splitting of quadrilaterals into triangles. The final vertices and faces can be extracted from $f_{sdf}$ , $f_{def}$ , and $f_{cw}$ in a differentiable manner. We refer the readers to Flexicubes [41] for more details about the process. + +Since we already have explicit vertices and faces, surface rendering techniques [19] can be used to obtain the depth map $I_{d}$ and alpha $I_{a}$ under a certain camera pose $\xi$ . Moreover, the rasterization process will generate query positions for texture $Q_{tex}^{fl} \in \mathcal{R}^{N_{tex}^{fl} \times 3}$ under a certain rendering resolution, which can be used to query $f_{tex}$ and be further decoded into RGB colors $f_{rgb}$ by an MLP: + +$$ +f _ {r g b} = m l p _ {r g b} \left(g s \left(f _ {t e x}, Q _ {t e x} ^ {f l}\right)\right) \in \mathcal {R} ^ {N _ {t e x} ^ {f l} \times 3}, \tag {3} +$$ + +where RGB map $I_{c}$ can be obtained by clamping $f_{rgb}$ in [0,1] and projecting the clamped RGB values back to pixel space. Now, we can easily define the differentiable rendering-based reconstruction penalty as: + +$$ +L _ {r e} = \lambda_ {\text {d e p t h}} L _ {\text {d e p t h}} + \lambda_ {\text {a l p h a}} L _ {\text {a l p h a}} + \lambda_ {\text {c o l o r}} L _ {\text {c o l o r}}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $L_{depth} = |I_d - I_d^{gt}|_1$ , $L_{alpha} = |I_a - I_a^{gt}|_1$ , and $L_{color} = |I_c - I_c^{gt}|_1$ . $gt$ denotes the ground truth renderings and $|\cdot|_1$ denotes absolute difference. + +To further improve the texture quality, we borrow a simple N-layer discriminator from StableDiffusion and formulate an adversarial paradigm. To avoid collapses, we only conduct adversarial training when the pure reconstruction converges. The vanilla generative penalty can be written as: + +$$ +L _ {G} = \mathbb {E} _ {z \in \mathcal {N} (\mu , \sigma^ {2})} [ - \mathcal {D} (I _ {c}) ], +$$ + +$$ +L _ {D} = \mathbb {E} _ {z \in \mathcal {N} (\mu , \sigma^ {2}), I _ {c} ^ {g t}} [ - \mathcal {D} (I _ {c} ^ {g t}) + \mathcal {D} (I _ {c}) ], \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{D}$ denotes the N-layer discriminator. In all, we first train the encoder and decoder using the following penalty, + +$$ +L _ {N o A d v} = \lambda_ {k l} L _ {k l} + L _ {r e}. \tag {6} +$$ + +![](images/ba3bbc18c4db1ce77f8623651e7c16e820fd43b13feeee3363510f0af2ec077b.jpg) +Fig. 4: Qualitative conditional generation results on ShapeNetV2. For each conditioned image, the result of our method stands in the first line and the result of TexturedLAS stands in the second line. The last four columns show the shapes that are queried from 3DILG and 3DS2Vec using OpenShape [22]. + +After the reconstruction converges, we conduct adversarial training using the following objective. + +$$ +L _ {A d v} = \lambda_ {k l} L _ {k l} + L _ {r e} + \lambda_ {a d v} L _ {G} \tag {7} +$$ + +# 3.4 Latent Diffusion Model + +We use off-the-shell 2D Diffusion Model [7] as our base model and load the pretrained weight when the training process starts. To enable large-scale conditional generation, we use a vision transformer trained on laion2b for image feature extraction, and we use cross-attention for condition injection at different scales. The vision transformer is frozen during the training process since it tends to overfit a specific concept when trained on a small dataset. Note that we do not implement a text encoder since we find current text captions of publicly available 3D models are of poor quality, and we hold the concept that text-to-3d should leverage the 2D generation models to formulate a text-to-image-to-3D paradigm which is more controllable by introducing a powerful text-to-image generation model. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Datasets + +We split our experiments into three folds: 1) Single-class unconditional generation comparison on three classes of ShapeNetV2 (Car, Chair, and Table) following the train-valid split in previous methods [13]; 2) Multi-class conditional generation comparison on all classes of ShapeNetV2, also following the + +train-valid split in previous methods [55]; 3) Label-free conditional generation comparison on the 8 general classes from Objaverse which is labeled manually, and the splits are generated by randomly shuffling and splitting the data into proportions of 0.9, 0.05, 0.05 respectively for train, validation, and test. + +# 4.2 Hyperparameters and Details + +In Sec. 3, our description involves many hyperparameters and hidden details which should be clarified. We render each 3D model into 38 views of $1024 \times 1024$ resolution including depth, alpha, and RGB images with blender. The rendering poses are illustrated in the appendix in detail and we refer readers to the appendix for more information. Since different shapes have different ratios of occupancy of the rendering images, the reprojected point clouds may have different amounts of points $N$ , which range mostly from 1 million to 4 million. The point feature dimension $C_f$ is set to 12, and the plane resolution $K_f$ is set to 256. The shape of the latent code of our VAE is the same as StableDiffusion (i.e. [4, 32, 32]), and we set the weight of KL-Divergence $\lambda_{kl}$ to $1e^{-7}$ . For simplicity, we also put the structure of our SCN in the appendix and we refer the readers to the appendix for more technique details. In the decoding stage, we set $C_{geo} = 8$ , $C_{tex} = 8$ , and we use Flexicubes with a resolution of 96 for all experiments. In the final loss, we set $\lambda_{depth} = 2$ , $\lambda_{alpha} = 2$ , $\lambda_{color} = 1$ , and $\lambda_{adv} = 0.01$ . + +Table 1: Quantitative Metrics on ShapeNetV2 classes Car, Chair and Table. + +

+ +specific class, and the training of class Table collapses at scale 0.9. We further render the data of Table at scale 0.7 and report related metrics instead. For the computation of Chamfer Distance, we normalize both the generated shapes and ground truth shapes of the test dataset in a unit space and report Coverage (COV) and Minimum Matching Distance (MMD) evaluation metrics of two groups of shapes. + +Qualitative Comparison. Since it is hard to align two unconditional methods for visualization, for qualitative comparison, we only generate and export textured shapes for each class using our method. As depicted in Fig. 1, Sparse3D faithfully generates high-quality samples in the single-class unconditional generation on various classes. We further show the interpolation result of two random samplings in Supp-Fig. 6, which demonstrates the smoothness of our distribution mapping function. + +# 4.4 Multi-Class Conditional Generation + +Quantitative Comparison. As textured shape generation on multi-class conditional generation of ShapeNetV2 does not have a public benchmark currently, + +we conduct experiments with geometry-only SOTA methods, 3DILG [55] and 3DS2Vec [56], and further compare it with TexturedLAS $\ddagger$ , which is based on LASDiffusion [59] but can simultaneously output occupancy and a texture field. We refer the readers to the appendix for our implementation details of TexturedLAS, which is also an early technical exploration of us. For 3DILG and 3DS2Vec, we only report the autoencoding-related metrics since they have not released image-conditioned pre-trained weights. For TexturedLAS, we report geometry-related metrics (Chamfer Distance) and rendering-related metrics (PSNR, SSIM, and LPIPS) for image-conditional generation. As depicted in Tab. 2, we directly adopt the metrics reported in 3DILG and 3DS2Vec and use the dataset splits released by 3DS2Vec. We normalize each generated shape in a unit cube between $[-1,1]$ and follow the same evaluation script with 3DS2Vec. Since we train our framework by differentiable rendering, we report chamfer distance in Surface and Structure settings. For the Structure setting, we sample points in all faces of a mesh and compute the chamfer distance between two point clouds, which is the same as 3DS2Vec. For the Surface setting, we sample points from the rendering surface of a mesh, which means that we do not consider the internal structure. As a rendering-based method, we should only report the Surface setting but we find that in the Structure setting, Sparse3D is comparable to the SOTA shape generation method 3DS2Vec and sometimes even slightly better, which demonstrates the superiority of our design. + +In textured shapes generation, we report metrics on the whole test dataset of ShapeNetV2. The final metrics are the average of 55 classes and the metrics of each class are the average metrics of each instance. As depicted in Tab. 3, Sparse3D achieves better geometry and texture generation quality than TexturedLAS for the better ability to preserve high-frequency features. Although we elevate the resolution of the occupancy diffusion stage from 64 to 128, TexturedLAS still performs poorly both on geometry and texture generation. + +Qualitative Comparison. We visualize conditional generation results of baselines and our method in Fig. 4. As is shown, our method can generate smooth topology without direct 3D supervision and generate texture seamlessly with the underlying geometry. TexturedLAS can also generate smooth and high-quality geometry but can not generate decent texture since it is based on volume representation. Note we have increased the resolution of the first stage in TexturedLAS to 128, but we can not eliminate the black surface phenomenon which we further explain in the appendix. We use shapes generated by our conditional generation as a reference and use OpenShape [22] to search for similar shapes in the sampling results of 3DS2Vec and 3DILG. The final visualization also shows that the quality of the underlying geometry of generated shapes of Sparse3D is comparable to or even slightly better than methods that directly use 3D supervision (SDF). + +![](images/00b993b3b53f66eb72802433a44df8c04fec75dff2871a2afb1bc0bf7a0820ad.jpg) +Fig. 5: Qualitative results on various image-to-3D methods. Due to different settings, the image is treated as either a condition or the input. + +# 4.5 Label-free Image-Conditional Generation + +Quantitative Results. Since previous methods are not trained on the same datasets as Sparse3D, we only report our metrics on the testing dataset as a baseline for future work. As also depicted in Tab. 3, Sparse3D achieves poorer metrics on Objaverse than ShapeNetV2. The reasons behind this are two-fold: 1) Objaverse contains various materials that will set obstacles for us to obtain the ground-truth renderings using open-source rendering engines like Blender; 2) Objaverse contains more complicated samples than CAD models in ShapeNetV2. We leave these potential improvements to future work. + +Qualitative Comparison. We visualize some typical samples generated by Sparse3D, Point-E [31], Shape-E [17], and Syncdreamer(Neus) [24]. Point-E and Shap-E are trained on private datasets with several million 3D models. Syncdreamer is trained on the whole Objaverse. Since all of these methods use different training datasets, we only aim to illustrate typical strengths and problems among current methods. As shown in Fig. 5, Sparse3D could generate topologies like man-made shapes but fails to generate accurate texture based on the conditioned image. We empirically find that an unaligned dataset(Objaverse) will cause ambiguity in image-3D alignment since two objects with the same topology but different rotations are treated as distinct objects in networks. Point-E and Shap-E suffer from the same ambiguity problem as Sparse3D both in geometry and texture. SyncDreamer may generate a corrupted bottom for the + +generated fixed up-hemisphere views. Current methods are hard to benchmark for the reason of using different training sets, which again motivates us to build up and release the benchmark. However, we show competitive visualization results in the open-vocabulary scenario. Also, as shown in Supp-Fig. 7, Sparse3D can be adopted for a text-to-image-to-3D pipeline rather than directly learning a mapping from text prompts to 3D models. + +# 4.6 Ablation + +We conduct an ablation study on significant modifications including sparse encoding and adversarial fintuning. As depicted in Tab. 4, sparse encoding greatly improves both the geometry-related and texture-related metric since it preserves more features of original shapes. Adversarial finetuning further enhances the texture quality of reconstructed shapes, which builds a higher upbound for the generation model. (The term "baseline" indicates that we only used a 20K point cloud as input for PointNet, as opposed to a dense point cloud in the order of millions as input for SparseConv.) + +Table 4: Ablation on Sparse Encoding and Adversarial Fintuning. + +

+ +# 5 Conclusion + +We propose Sparse3D, a novel framework that utilizes an off-the-shell 2D generation model (StableDiffusion) for 3D textured shape generation. Minimal modifications stand in the sparse encoding stage, which is aimed to boost the quality of texture and the adversarial finetune as a second stage of reconstruction. Experiments on the single-class unconditional setting, multi-class conditional setting, and open-vocabulary conditional setting demonstrate the superiority of Sparse3D. Although we take a step further on textured shape generation on large-scale scenarios and produce shapes similar to man-made ones, the data limitation of 3D generation has not been fully resolved yet and the generalizability of Sparse3D is relatively weak when compared with NVs methods. In future works, we want to combine the generalizability of NVS methods with the topology-preserving ability of Sparse3D and incorporate an explicit 3D prior to the NVS methods to formulate a 3D-aware diffusion model. + +# Acknowledgements + +We would like to express our special gratitude to Chao Xu for his assistance in G-Objverse rendering. + +# References + +1.

Therefore, 3D assets are more difficult to fit into the neural networks than 2D assets. Sparsity is a distinct attribute of 3D vision that has been utilized in large-scale scene perception tasks like 3D detection and semantic segmentation of point clouds but merely discussed in 3D generation. Our key motivation in this paper, however, is that sparsity is vital for 3D generation, especially when we need to generate high-frequency textures simultaneously." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 390, + 482, + 593 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 390, + 482, + 593 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 390, + 482, + 593 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Signed Distance Function (SDF) [7,8,29], and Occupancy [44,55,59] are typical dense representations in 3D generation. Although they have advantages in accurate shape modeling, their shortcomings are memory costing and inaccurate alignment to texture, which limits their performance in textured shape generation. Methods using point clouds as representation are naturally sparse, yet they lose detailed structure information. To recover the structural information, conversions from sparse space to dense space and then reversely from dense space to sparse space are used for point cloud applications and demonstrate the highest quality of generated shapes [25,49,60]. To avoid the laborious conversion, Sparse Convolution Networks [10, 47] are proposed to directly process sparse point clouds, which demonstrate state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on large-scale vision perception tasks [15, 27]. Hence in this work, we propose to use a sparse encoding module to alleviate the high computation complexity in 3D shape compression. Since we use a sparse encoding module to extract per-coordinate features, these features can be further projected to 2D planes by predefined angles.

Compared with NVS methods, these methods produce more feasible topologies like man-made shapes and can also generate corresponding textures. GET3D [13] is the first method capable of generating explicit free-topology textured shapes in an end-to-end manner. It incorporates a hybrid tri-plane representation together with a differentiable marching tetrahedron layer into a StyleGAN2 for end-to-end single-class textured shape generation. Since massive 3D contents collected from websites are hard to align, the camera pose-conditioned paradigm of GET3D can not be generalized to multiclass and open-vocabulary scenarios. Another work that should be noticed and most similar to our approach is 3DGen [14], which utilizes a triplane-based Variational AutoEncoder(VAE) to convert the dense point clouds to tetrahedron meshes. Also, a triplane stands as the latent representation and is fed through a diffusion UNet [37] for generation purposes. It utilizes Objaverse for pretraining and then finetunes the model on ShapeNetV2, achieving well generalizability on multi-class conditional generation. However, the limitations of 3DGen lie in the design of the autoencoding stage. It also uses the UNet structure for encoding and decoding, which keeps the resolution of the triplane but hinders the optimization of the latent diffusion model. In our design, we show that there is no need to keep the semantic layout of projected triplanes, and we can treat the feature planes like 2D natural images in the StableDiffusion pipeline." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 258, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "header", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 258, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 258, + 90, + 447, + 102 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "High-Fidelity 3D Textured Shapes Generation" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 0 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "type": "page_number", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 474, + 92, + 480, + 100 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "5" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 1 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 4 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 133, + 118, + 479, + 203 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 118, + 479, + 203 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 118, + 479, + 203 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 118, + 479, + 203 + ], + "type": "image", + "image_path": "a6068e32beb6693ba249016e2709b9a165673318df2ac112b6b06d2c77399d59.jpg" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_body" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 217, + 482, + 350 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 217, + 482, + 350 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 217, + 482, + 350 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Fig. 3: Sparse3D only varies with StableDiffusion in several specific components.

We visualize some typical samples generated by Sparse3D, Point-E [31], Shape-E [17], and Syncdreamer(Neus) [24]. Point-E and Shap-E are trained on private datasets with several million 3D models. Syncdreamer is trained on the whole Objaverse. Since all of these methods use different training datasets, we only aim to illustrate typical strengths and problems among current methods. As shown in Fig. 5, Sparse3D could generate topologies like man-made shapes but fails to generate accurate texture based on the conditioned image. We empirically find that an unaligned dataset(Objaverse) will cause ambiguity in image-3D alignment since two objects with the same topology but different rotations are treated as distinct objects in networks. Point-E and Shap-E suffer from the same ambiguity problem as Sparse3D both in geometry and texture.

Experiments on the single-class unconditional setting, multi-class conditional setting, and open-vocabulary conditional setting demonstrate the superiority of Sparse3D. Although we take a step further on textured shape generation on large-scale scenarios and produce shapes similar to man-made ones, the data limitation of 3D generation has not been fully resolved yet and the generalizability of Sparse3D is relatively weak when compared with NVs methods.

This paper proposes a generalizable model to synthesize high-fidelity clothing wrinkle deformation in 3D by learning from real data. Given the complex deformation behaviors of real-world clothing, this task presents significant challenges, primarily due to the lack of accurate ground-truth data. Obtaining high-fidelity 3D deformations requires special equipment like a multi-camera system, which is not easily scalable. To address this challenge, we decompose the clothing into a base surface and fine wrinkles; and introduce a new method that can generate wrinkles as high-frequency 3D displacement from coarse clothing deformation. Our method is conditioned by Green-Lagrange strain field—a local rotation-invariant measurement that is independent of body and clothing topology, enhancing its generalizability. Using limited real data (e.g., 3K) of garment meshes, we train a diffusion model that can generate high-fidelity wrinkles from a coarse clothing mesh, conditioned on its strain field. Practically, we obtain the coarse clothing mesh using a body-conditioned VAE, ensuring compatibility of the deformation with the body pose.

However, they have difficulty in modeling loose clothing like skirt, due to the lack of accurate body estimation under loose clothing, as well as the topological gap between human body and loose clothing. Other methods [26, 37, 56] propose to model wrinkle-level clothing deformation independently of body, aiming for learning clothing deformations that can be generalized to unseen body poses without requiring large-scale body-clothing pairwise data. However, they generate wrinkles based on the normal map [26, 56] or the vertex positions [37] of the coarsely deformed clothing. These global representations are still inherently coupled with the underlying body pose, limiting their generalizability when trained on small-scale data. There is no trivial conversion of these representations from global to local. For example, a tangent-space normal map of the coarse clothing surface contains no information to the geometry [26].

This paper proposes a generalizable model to synthesize high-fidelity clothing wrinkle deformation in 3D by learning from real data. Given the complex deformation behaviors of real-world clothing, this task presents significant challenges, primarily due to the lack of accurate ground-truth data. Obtaining high-fidelity 3D deformations requires special equipment like a multi-camera system, which is not easily scalable. To address this challenge, we decompose the clothing into a base surface and fine wrinkles; and introduce a new method that can generate wrinkles as high-frequency 3D displacement from coarse clothing deformation. Our method is conditioned by Green-Lagrange strain field—a local rotation-invariant measurement that is independent of body and clothing topology, enhancing its generalizability. Using limited real data (e.g., 3K) of garment meshes, we train a diffusion model that can generate high-fidelity wrinkles from a coarse clothing mesh, conditioned on its strain field. Practically, we obtain the coarse clothing mesh using a body-conditioned VAE, ensuring compatibility of the deformation with the body pose. In our experiments, we demonstrate that our generative wrinkle model outperforms existing methods by synthesizing high-fidelity wrinkle deformation from novel body poses and clothing while preserving the quality comparable to the one from training data." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.217, + 0.641, + 0.377, + 0.657 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.674, + 0.788, + 0.749 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "In the digital frontier, modeling virtual clothing has become increasingly important in many domains, ranging from fashion design to online shopping, and from animation to virtual reality.

Other methods [26, 37, 56] propose to model wrinkle-level clothing deformation independently of body, aiming for learning clothing deformations that can be generalized to unseen body poses without requiring large-scale body-clothing pairwise data.

Since the normal map does not provide information on the geometric scale of the wrinkle, the deformed mesh may have misalignment with the ground-truth.

This paper proposes a generalizable model to synthesize high-fidelity clothing wrinkle deformation in 3D by learning from real data. Given the complex deformation behaviors of real-world clothing, this task presents significant challenges, primarily due to the lack of accurate ground-truth data. Obtaining high-fidelity 3D deformations requires special equipment like a multi-camera system, which is not easily scalable. To address this challenge, we decompose the clothing into a base surface and fine wrinkles; and introduce a new method that can generate wrinkles as high-frequency 3D displacement from coarse clothing deformation. Our method is conditioned by Green-Lagrange strain field—a local rotation-invariant measurement that is independent of body and clothing topology, enhancing its generalizability. Using limited real data (e.g., 3K) of garment meshes, we train a diffusion model that can generate high-fidelity wrinkles from a coarse clothing mesh, conditioned on its strain field. Practically, we obtain the coarse clothing mesh using a body-conditioned VAE, ensuring compatibility of the deformation with the body pose. In our experiments, we demonstrate that our generative wrinkle model outperforms existing methods by synthesizing high-fidelity wrinkle deformation from novel body poses and clothing while preserving the quality comparable to the one from training data. + +# 1 Introduction + +In the digital frontier, modeling virtual clothing has become increasingly important in many domains, ranging from fashion design to online shopping, and from animation to virtual reality. In immersive VR applications like telepresence, clothing plays a pivotal role in conveying the user identity, where the realism of clothing deformation is crucial for the authenticity of such an experience. + +Simulating realistic clothing deformations based on the law of physics has been successful [5,7,28,33-36,54]. Yet the inverse problem, digitalizing real-world clothing and replicating its deformation behavior, is still challenging. Instead of solving this problem in a physical way, data-driven approaches present viable solutions. However, these methods also face significant challenges due to the lack of ground-truth data: capturing high-fidelity 3D clothing deformation [16, + +![](images/c294986babec3276858a272ffe1b7262dfa805ef04e2a3bf05ea2a428a333fd4.jpg) +Fig. 1: Generalizable wrinkles: Given unseen SMPL body poses, we generate clothing deformation with realistic wrinkles. The high-frequency wrinkle deformation is learned from real captures of a short-sleeve T-shirt, which is generalizable to long-sleeve T-shirts and tank tops. + +21, 39, 40, 51, 52] often requires expensive equipment such as a multi-camera system, which has poor scalability. The models learned from limited data often fail to produce realistic deformation due to the prediction ambiguity from unseen poses and clothing shapes, which often erases the high-frequency components, e.g., wrinkles. + +To take advantage of limited real clothing data capture and animate them with unseen body shapes and poses, existing methods [4, 31, 40, 43] rely on the prior knowledge of human body deformation. Specifically, they extend the linear blend skinning (LBS) from a parametric body [30] to clothing, so it can be animated with the body skeleton with the generalizability to unseen body poses. However, they have difficulty in modeling loose clothing like skirt, due to the lack of accurate body estimation under loose clothing, as well as the topological gap between human body and loose clothing. Other methods [26, 37, 56] propose to model wrinkle-level clothing deformation independently of body, aiming for learning clothing deformations that can be generalized to unseen body poses without requiring large-scale body-clothing pairwise data. However, they generate wrinkles based on the normal map [26, 56] or the vertex positions [37] of the coarsely deformed clothing. These global representations are still inherently coupled with the underlying body pose, limiting their generalizability when trained on small-scale data. There is no trivial conversion of these representations from global to local. For example, a tangent-space normal map of the coarse clothing surface contains no information to the geometry [26]. For the vertex positions, transforming them to a pose-invariant canonical space can make it generalizable, but finding this canonicalization for arbitrary clothing is non-trivial. Resorting to the body LBS for the canonicalization results in drawbacks as discussed above. + +In this paper, we address this challenge by making the wrinkle generation dependent on a local representation of the coarse clothing state—Green-Lagrange strain. Since the strain measures how the clothing is locally deformed in comparison to its rest state in a rotation-invariant space, it is highly generalizable. Using this strain field representation, we propose to learn the correlation between the strain and the wrinkling from real clothing captures. Since the strain measurement is local, and its relationship with wrinkling is an intrinsic property + +of the fabric material, this representation is completely independent of the body poses, and therefore, has the ability to generalize to unseen body poses. + +Since clothing wrinkling is extremely complex and can be affected by many factors other than the strain measurement, we model the cloth wrinkling as a generative task conditioned on the strain. Specifically, we use a denoising diffusion model [18], which is shown to be effective on geometry modeling [15,24,46], for realistic wrinkling. We represent the wrinkling as vertex displacement in local coordinate frame on the base mesh, and train the diffusion model on real clothing with accurate registrations [16]. In particular, we generate base meshes by removing wrinkles from the ground-truth meshes, then compute vertex displacement between the base mesh and the ground-truth mesh, and transform it to the local coordinate frame on the base mesh. We also compute Green-Lagrange stain on the base mesh, and use it as conditioning to the diffusion model. + +Based on the strain-conditioned diffusion model for wrinkle generation, we propose a practical pipeline to model realistic body-dependent clothing deformations for virtual avatars. In particular, we rig the clothing mesh with a virtual skeleton, which controls the coarse clothing deformation using LBS. We use a conditional variational auto-encoder (CVAE) [25,47] to model the latent space of virtual skeleton transformations conditioned on body shape and pose. At inference time, the CVAE samples feasible virtual skeleton transformations given body shape and pose, which produces coarse clothing deformation. We compute Green-Lagrange strain on the coarsely deformed cloth, and use our diffusion model to generate realistic wrinkles on top of it. Our experiments on the test set of real captures and synthetic data demonstrate that our method can generate realistic wrinkles with strong generalizability to arbitrary body poses. + +We summarize our contributions as follows: + +- A strain-conditioned diffusion model for realistic clothing wrinkle generation, which is learned from high-fidelity real 3D clothing captures, with strong generalizability to unseen body poses. +- A practical pipeline for realistic body-dependent clothing deformations, where we learn diverse body-dependent coarse clothing deformation from synthetic simulation data using a VAE based network. +- Applications of our method to wrinkle transfer, material modeling, and down-stream tasks like image-based wrinkle fitting. + +# 2 Related work + +Cloth modeling has attracted significant attention in computer graphics and computer vision research communities. Recent efforts on modeling clothing deformation can be categorized into two groups: physics-based approaches and data-driven approaches. + +Physics-based cloth simulation. Based on the established knowledge of elastic material mechanics, researchers have proposed numerous physics-based cloth simulation methods to model physically plausible clothing deformation [5,7,28, 33-36, 54]. These methods usually study the force exerted on the clothing by + +its interaction with the body and environment, which is integrated over time to gradually deform the clothing geometry. Due to the intricate nature of clothing dynamics, some simplifications are often made to make the simulation tractable, sacrificing the realism of clothing deformation. + +Among the physics-based cloth simulation methods, the coarse-to-fine strategy has been explored. Wrinkle Meshes [33] can run in parallel with a dynamic simulation of coarse clothing mesh, and add wrinkles to it. Chen et al. [7,8] decompose a clothing geometry into a smooth base surface and fine wrinkles, where the wrinkles are represented as sinusoidal waves in the local frame of the base surface. Zhang et al. [54] propose an interactive tool for real-time quasi-static cloth simulation, where the user can control the coarse deformation of the cloth, and fine wrinkles will be progressively added to the coarsely deformed surface in a physically plausible way. These methods have shown promising results on realistic clothing deformation by only studying the fine wrinkles. + +Cloth simulations usually generate open-loop clothing deformations, while using them to replicate a real-world clothing is non-trivial. Wang et al. [50] and Feng et al. [11] design special equipment to measure real-world fabrics' stretching and bending properties, representing them as material parameters in a computational elastic model that can be integrated into physics-based cloth simulators. However, they measure the material properties of the fabric in a local manner, which may not faithfully reflect the property of an actual clothing, where multiple pieces of fabrics are sewed together. Efforts have also been made on differentiable cloth simulation [10, 14, 20, 29, 41], which can be used in gradient-based simulation parameter estimation. However, these gradient-based methods require reasonable initial guess to start with, making it difficult to solve real-world problems. Moreover, Zhong et al. [57] have empirically shown that the gradient computation in these differentiable simulators may not match the analytical results even for a simple collision task, making it questionable to use them for real-world cloth modeling. + +Data-driven cloth modeling. Researchers have been trying to model clothing deformation in a data-driven manner, which can be more flexible and scalable than physics-based methods. This is especially appealing when the clothing deformation can be learned from high-fidelity clothing captures [12, 16, 21, 31, 39, 40, 51, 52]. Since complex data processing is usually necessary in order to acquire the data, it is difficult to scale up the data collection. As a result, these data captures show limited diversity of body variations associated with each clothing. In addition, ground-truth body geometry is hard to acquire in the high-fidelity data captures, because the body is heavily occluded by the cloth. Only pseudo ground-truth body is available by fitting the shape and pose of a parametric body to the data capture. + +Considering the fact that each clothing is captured with limited body variations, it requires some prior knowledge in order to deform the captured clothing beyond the body shape and poses seen during capture. Existing methods [4,31,40,43] take advantage of the parametric body, and extend the LBS from body to cloth, so the clothing can be animated by controlling the body skeleton. + +Although these methods can successfully model tight-fitting clothing, deformation artifacts usually present. More importantly, they have difficulty in modeling loose clothing like skirt. Pan et al. [37] have shown that clothing-specific LBS independent of body skeleton is promising for modeling loose clothing. + +Another line of research is to combine data-driven techniques with physics-based simulation. Physics-based simulation is a useful tool for generating large-scale training data, so the body-dependent clothing deformation can be effectively learned [37,38,44,55]. Although the ideas directly apply to real-world data in theory, how to acquire large-scale real-world data that meet the training requirement is an open problem. Physics-inspired methods [2,3,13,45] use physics heuristics to enable unsupervised learning of clothing deformations, so realism of the result, especially for high-frequency wrinkles, is bounded by the underlying physics model. Our work is parallel to them, exploring an alternative direction to build a fully data-driven model that learns to reproduce real physical behaviors, thus pushing the boundaries of quality. + +Among the above works, the idea of coarse-to-fine decomposition of clothing geometry has been extensively explored [6, 23, 26, 37, 38, 56]. Specifically, Kavan et al. [23] propose a simple data-driven framework accompanied with strong regularization to model wrinkle-level clothing deformation on top of a coarse simulation. Lahner et al. [26] and Zhang et al. [56] argue that the wrinkle-level cloth geometry details can be baked in normal maps, and propose methods that can learn to upsample low-resolution normal maps. Although the normal map can be lifted to 3D [56], it shows limited contribution to the improvement of surface geometry. Patel et al. [38] and Pan et al. [37] decompose the clothing geometry into low-frequency and high-frequency components, showing promising capability of modeling complex clothing deformation. However, their methods require body-cloth data pairs that can only be synthesized, and hard to acquire in real-world as discussed above. + +# 3 Method + +The folding and wrinkling of clothing contribute most to our perception on its deformation, so we decompose the clothing surface into a smooth base surface and fine wrinkles, and model them separately as illustrated in Figure 2 (a). The base surface depends on the global body-clothing interaction, while the wrinkle model captures the local correlation between the state of base surface and fine wrinkles. This decomposition has a practical benefit that relaxes the requirement for body-clothing pairwise data from real capture. The body-dependent coarse clothing deformation can be learnt from large-scale synthetic body-clothing pairwise data. Although the synthetic data usually show low-quality clothing deformation, they only contribute to the coarse deformation component, which does not dominate our sense of realism on clothing deformation. In contrast, the realism of clothing deformation comes from the fine wrinkle component, which is learned from real clothing capture. + +![](images/272dc6a8ba6d877ba67429c30618aa79d06ba22f51c10fd16febf867e83b3c5c.jpg) +Fig. 2: (a) At inference time, our method first generate coarse clothing deformation driven by parametric body, then generate realistic wrinkles on the base clothing surface. We train the coarse clothing deformation component using large-scale synthetic body-clothing pairwise data. The fine wrinkle generation component, which dominate the realism of clothing deformation, is learned from limited real clothing capture. (b) CVAE for body-dependent coarse clothing deformation. A clothing is rigged with a virtual skeleton for LBS. The virtual skeleton is optimized on the combination of the synthetic clothing and the base surface derived from the real clothing capture. The CVAE is trained to reconstruct the virtual skeleton transformations conditioned on SMPL parameters. + +# 3.1 Problem Formulation + +We represent the clothing as a thin elastic surface $\pmb{f}(\pmb{u}) : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}^3$ , where the surface in the planar parameter space $\Omega$ is embedded in the 3D deformed space. Inspired by how wrinkles develop on real thin sheets [1, 7], we decompose the clothing surface into a smooth base surface $\pmb{f}_b$ and a fine wrinkle field $\pmb{f}_w$ as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} (\boldsymbol {u}) = \boldsymbol {f} _ {b} (\boldsymbol {u}) + \boldsymbol {f} _ {w} (\boldsymbol {u}), \tag {1} +$$ + +For a point $\pmb{u} \in \Omega$ , we can define a local coordinate frame as $\{\frac{\partial f_b}{\partial u_1}, \frac{\partial f_b}{\partial u_2}, \hat{\pmb{n}}_b\}$ where the first two are tangential components, and $\hat{\pmb{n}}_b$ is the unit normal on the base surface. We encode the wrinkles as a vector field $\tilde{\pmb{w}}(\pmb{u}) : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}^3$ in the local frame, which contributes to the wrinkle in the deformed space as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {f} _ {w} = \tilde {w} _ {1} \frac {\partial \boldsymbol {f} _ {b}}{\partial u _ {1}} + \tilde {w} _ {2} \frac {\partial \boldsymbol {f} _ {b}}{\partial u _ {2}} + \tilde {w} _ {3} \hat {\boldsymbol {n}} _ {b} \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\tilde{w}_i$ represents a scalar field in $\Omega$ , and the other terms are vector fields in $\Omega$ . + +Existing works [7, 36] have explored how the stretching measurement like Green-Lagrange strain can affect the clothing deformation under physics-based settings. Considering a point $\pmb{u} \in \Omega$ on the reference surface that is mapped to $\pmb{x}_b \in \mathbb{R}^3$ on the deformed base surface, the stretching of the surface at the point can be measured by the Green-Lagrange strain tensor $\mathbf{E} \in \mathbb{R}^{2 \times 2}$ + +$$ +\mathbf {E} = \frac {1}{2} \left(\mathbf {F} ^ {\intercal} \mathbf {F} - \mathbf {I}\right), \tag {3} +$$ + +![](images/707a601460bae29ce7a351e6bbf5721b0bbaea7625774fca28d3e86ad28e790c.jpg) +Fig. 3: Strain-conditioned diffusion model for fine wrinkles. We acquire base mesh by smoothing out the wrinkles on the real clothing capture, then construct a wrinkle field $\mathbf{x}_0$ as the vertex displacement from base mesh to wrinkled mesh in base mesh local coordinate frame unwrapped to UV space. Meanwhile, we compute Green-Lagrange strain on the base mesh, and parameterize it in UV space as the strain field $\mathbf{c}$ . During training, the diffusion model takes $\mathbf{x}_0$ and $\mathbf{c}$ as inputs, adds Gaussian noise to $\mathbf{x}_0$ , and learns to recover it conditioned on $\mathbf{c}$ . At inference time, the diffusion model takes $\mathbf{c}$ as input, and generate $\mathbf{x}_0$ from Gaussian noise. The base mesh is used to compute clothing-specific virtual skeleton together with the synthetic cloth. + +where $\mathbf{F} = \frac{\partial\pmb{x}_b}{\partial\pmb{u}}\in \mathbb{R}^{3\times 2}$ is the deformation gradient at point $\pmb{x}_b$ , and $\mathbf{I}$ is an identity matrix. We compute the magnitude of Green-Lagrange strain by taking its Frobenius norm $\| \mathbf{E}\| _F$ , and use it to form a scalar field $E(\pmb {u}): \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ on the entire surface, measuring the stretching on the base surface comparing to its rest state. We pursue a data-driven approach, and model the cloth wrinkling behavior based on the stretching of the base surface. Specifically, we aim to learn a generative model for the wrinkle field $\tilde{\pmb{w}}$ conditioned on the stretching state of the base surface measured by $E$ + +$$ +\hat {\boldsymbol {w}} = \boldsymbol {G} _ {\theta} (\epsilon ; E), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\pmb{G}_{\theta}$ is a neural network parameterized by $\theta$ + +Discretization. In practice, we discretize the surface in $\Omega$ as a triangle mesh $\bar{M} = (\bar{V}, F)$ in UV space, where $\bar{V} \in \mathbb{R}^2$ is the set of vertex positions in the UV space, and $F$ is the set of triangle faces. The canonical base surface, deformed base surface, and wrinkled surface embedded in 3D are discretized similarly as triangle meshes $\bar{M}_b = (\bar{V}_b, F)$ , $M_b = (V_b, F)$ and $M = (V, F)$ , respectively, where $\bar{V}_b, V_b, V \in \mathbb{R}^3$ . + +The vector field $\tilde{\boldsymbol{w}}$ and the scalar field $E$ defined on the base surface in $\Omega$ are discretized as UV images $\mathcal{U}_{\tilde{\boldsymbol{w}}} \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W \times 3}$ and $\mathcal{U}_E \in \mathbb{R}^{H \times W}$ . They can be mapped to per-vertex and per-face quantities by the UV mapping given by $\bar{M}$ . + +# 3.2 Strain-Conditioned Fine Wrinkle Field + +We learn $G_{\theta}$ in Equation (4) from real 3D clothing data based on a conditional diffusion model [18], which consists of a forward process and a reverse process as shown in Figure 3. + +In the forward process, we learn a transition probability from the complete wrinkle signal to a random noise $\mathbf{x}_T$ by adding noise + +$$ +\mathbf {x} _ {t} = \sqrt {1 - \beta_ {t}} \mathbf {x} _ {t - 1} + \beta_ {t} \epsilon , \quad \mathbf {x} _ {0} = \mathcal {U} _ {\tilde {\boldsymbol {w}}}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\epsilon \sim \mathcal{N}(\mathbf{0},\mathbf{I})$ is a sample from the Gaussian distribution. We gradually increase the variance schedule $\beta_{t}$ as increasing $t$ , which reduces the impact of $\mathbf{x}_{t - 1}$ while increasing that of Gaussian noise. + +The reverse process gradually reconstructs the wrinkle signal from random noise by denoising: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} _ {t - 1} = \frac {1}{\sqrt {\alpha_ {t}}} \left(\mathbf {x} _ {t} - \frac {1 - \alpha_ {t}}{\sqrt {1 - \bar {\alpha} _ {t}}} \boldsymbol {\epsilon} _ {\theta} (\mathbf {x} _ {t}, t; \mathbf {c})\right) + \sigma_ {t} \mathbf {z} \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{c} = \mathcal{U}_E$ is the strain field conditioning. Based on the variance schedule $\beta_{t}$ , we define $\alpha_{t} = 1 - \beta_{t}$ , $\bar{\alpha}_{t} = \prod_{i = 1}^{t}\alpha_{i}$ , and $\sigma_{t} = \sqrt{\tilde{\beta}_{t}} = \sqrt{\frac{1 - \bar{\alpha}_{t - 1}}{1 - \bar{\alpha}_{t}}\beta_{t}}$ . The learnable neural network $\epsilon_{\theta}$ parameterized by $\theta$ aims to predict the noise $\pmb{\epsilon}$ from corrupted data $\mathbf{x}_t$ , conditioned on the strain field $\mathbf{c} = \mathcal{U}_E$ . The generator $G_{\theta}$ in Equation (4) is effectively the iterative reverse process that produces $\mathbf{x}_0$ from $\mathbf{x}_T$ . + +We train $\epsilon_{\theta}$ with a weighted variational bound [18] as the objective: + +$$ +L = \mathbb {E} _ {t, \mathbf {x} _ {0}, \epsilon} \left[ \| \boldsymbol {\epsilon} - \boldsymbol {\epsilon} _ {\theta} \left(\sqrt {\bar {\alpha} _ {t}} \mathbf {x} _ {0} + \sqrt {1 - \bar {\alpha} _ {t}} \boldsymbol {\epsilon}, t; \mathbf {c}\right) \| ^ {2} \right] \tag {7} +$$ + +# 3.3 Body-Dependent Base Surface + +The wrinkle field generated in the above step is conditioned on, and will be added to, a base surface that shows coarse clothing deformation. The base clothing surface can deform in a variety of ways depending on its interaction with other entities, where the underlying body is a major source of such interaction. In pursuit of the goal on modeling realistic clothed avatar, we seek to build the connection between the clothing deformation and the underlying body. + +We represent the human body using SMPL [30], parameterizing a body geometry $\mathcal{M}(\pmb{\theta},\pmb{\beta})$ as a function of body pose $\pmb{\theta}$ and body shape $\pmb{\beta}$ . The base surface in 3D deformed space is controllable by clothing-specific virtual skeleton $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}^{k\times 6}$ , which is optimized [27] on a combination of real and synthetic cloth meshes. Each virtual bone's movement has 6 degrees-of-freedom, including translation $t\in \mathbb{R}^3$ and rotation $\boldsymbol{r}\in SO(3)$ . + +The virtual skeleton transformations are decoded from a latent vector $\mathbf{z}$ conditioned on SMPL pose $\pmb{\theta}$ and shape $\beta$ parameters + +$$ +M _ {b} = \boldsymbol {W} (\bar {M} _ {b}; \boldsymbol {\gamma}, \mathcal {W}), \tag {8} +$$ + +$$ +\boldsymbol {\gamma} = \boldsymbol {G} _ {\phi} (\boldsymbol {z}; \boldsymbol {\theta}, \boldsymbol {\beta}), \tag {9} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{W}(\cdot)$ is a function that deforms the base mesh $M_{b}$ from its rest pose $\bar{M}_b$ based on virtual skeleton transformations $\gamma$ and skinning weight $\mathcal{W}\in \mathbb{R}^{|V_b|\times 6k}$ , $\pmb{G}_{\phi}$ is a neural network parameterized by $\phi$ . We learn $\pmb{G}_{\phi}$ in Equation (9) from synthetic body-clothing pairwise data as the decoder in a conditional variational auto-encoder (CVAE) [25,47] as shown in Figure 2 (b). + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Dataset and Settings + +In order to train the coarse clothing deformation component, we take 49 body motion sequences from the AMASS [32] dataset, totaling 27415 frames, and simulate each clothing with the body. We post-process the simulated clothing meshes by curved Hessian smoothing to remove unnecessary high-frequency details. + +We learn the fine wrinkles from the patterned clothing dataset [16], which provides accurate 3D registrations for the clothing geometry. To create smooth base meshes, we remove wrinkles from the ground-truth clothing meshes by smoothing based on curved Hessian energy [49].

The in-distribution test set only contains coarse clothing and GT wrinkled clothing, but no body pose, while the out-of-distribution test set has body pose and synthetic clothing. The pose distribution in the out-of-distribution test set highly deviates from the training set as Figure 4 shows. Please note that the body pose is not available in the real-world dataset, and we approximate it using a rigged T-shirt. + +Implementation details. For the coarse deformation component, each clothing is rigged with 64 joints in the virtual skeleton. For the wrinkle generation component, we train the diffusion model with $T = 1,000$ steps, and inference using DDIM [48] with $S = 50$ steps and $\eta = 0$ in the reverse process. We use a linear variance schedule that increases from $\beta_{1} = 10^{-4}$ to $\beta_{T} = 0.02$ . The network $\epsilon_{\theta}$ is implemented as a U-Net [42] that takes in a $256 \times 256$ UV image, consisting of both strain field and noisy wrinkle field. + +![](images/5c8ac38f3387c64ae2d2249e32e48aadb158a41508258839ff1c63331bebab68.jpg) +Fig. 5: Comparison of 3D wrinkle reconstruction with baseline methods.

To quantitatively evaluate the geometric quality of the generated wrinkles on the in-distribution test set, we compute the $L2$ vertex distance $E_{v}$ and the $L2$ Chamfer distance $E_{cd}$ between the ground-truth mesh and the predicted mesh from each method: + +$$ +E _ {v} = \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \| \mathbf {v} _ {i} - \hat {\mathbf {v}} _ {i} \| _ {2}, E _ {c d} = \frac {1}{| V |} \sum_ {\mathbf {v} \in V} \min _ {\hat {\mathbf {v}} \in \hat {V}} \| \mathbf {v} - \hat {\mathbf {v}} \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \frac {1}{| \hat {V} |} \sum_ {\hat {\mathbf {v}} \in \hat {V}} \min _ {\mathbf {v} \in V} \| \hat {\mathbf {v}} - \mathbf {v} \| _ {2} ^ {2} +$$ + +To evaluate the coarse deformation component on synthetic data, we report the $L2$ vertex distance $E_{v}$ for the base mesh, as well as $L2$ joint distance $E_{j}$ for the clothing-specific virtual skeleton. Moreover, as a perceptual evaluation for the quality of clothing wrinkles, we compute FID score [17] on UV-space normal maps between the real clothing captures and the results for each method. + +# 4.2 Comparison with Baseline Methods + +Comparison of 3D wrinkle reconstruction. We compare the wrinkle generation component of our method with DeepWrinkles [26], DDE [56], and LFGD [37] on the in-distribution test set. Please note that both DeepWrinkles and DDE aim at generating normal maps for rendering purpose, which is different from our method that focuses on generating detailed 3D geometry. We apply DDE's technique to deform the base mesh using normal map guidance. Specifically, the deformed vertex position is found by minimizing an energy function that consists of normal matching, Laplacian smoothing, and a regularization term: + +$$ +\mathbf {v} ^ {*} = \arg \min _ {\mathbf {v}} \sum_ {\mathbf {v} \in V} \sum_ {\mathbf {p} \in \mathrm {N} (\mathbf {v})} \| \mathbf {n} _ {\mathbf {v}} \cdot \frac {\mathbf {v} - \mathbf {p}}{\| \mathbf {v} - \mathbf {p} \|} \| ^ {2} + \lambda_ {l} \sum_ {\mathbf {v} \in V} \| \Delta \mathbf {v} \| ^ {2} + \lambda_ {r} \sum_ {\mathbf {v} \in V} \| \mathbf {v} - \mathbf {v} _ {0} \| ^ {2} (1 0) +$$ + +This is applied to both DeepWrinkles and DDE, then the geometric quality of their deformed meshes are compared with our method. For DDE, we remove the material classifier, as our experiment is done on each clothing separately. Since we focus on static wrinkle prediction, we discard temporal information when training and testing DeepWrinkles and LFGD. We only use LFGD's high-frequency component, and discard its low-frequency component in this experiment. + +We report the quantitative evaluation on the in-distribution test sets in Table 1. Because our method is generative, we run it 5 times with different Gaussian noise initialization and denoising trajectories, and report the average evaluation results.

+ +in Figure 5 and Supp. Mat... DeepWrinkles can generate normal maps in high quality, which is applicable to rendering, but it does not directly produce detailed clothing geometry. Following DDE, we apply Equation 10 to deform the base surface with the guidance of DeepWrinkles's normal map prediction. Since the normal map does not provide information on the geometric scale of the wrinkle, the deformed mesh may have misalignment with the ground-truth. In contrast, our method directly deforms the clothing geometry, where the surface normal can be derived trivially. DDE is good at enhancing existing wrinkles as shown in the original paper. In our experiment, each method starts from a smooth base mesh without wrinkles, and DDE fails to generate meaningful wrinkle patterns even as normal maps. LFGD's high-frequency component represents the wrinkle details as vertex displacement in the global coordinate frame, making it difficult to generalize to unseen coarse deformation. + +Comparison of wrinkle quality. Besides DeepWrinkles, DDE, and LFGD, we compare our method with body-dependent clothing deformation methods HOOD [13], NCS [3], and PBNS [2] on the out-of-distribution test set. HOOD, NCS, PBNS are physics-inspired methods that can be trained in an unsupervised way. Instead of explicitly decomposing clothing deformation into coarse and fine components, they directly predict the final clothing geometry given body poses. Similar methods include TailorNet [38] and SNUG [45], which have been surpassed by state-of-the-art methods HOOD, NCS, and PBNS. + +In this experiment, HOOD, NCS, PBNS, and our method take the same SMPL body as input, and generate wrinkled clothing, which may show different coarse deformation, especially for loose clothing.

We do an ablation study to justify our choice of the norm of Green-Lagrange strain by comparing it with surface normal and Green-Lagrange strain tensor as conditioning signals.

When using surface normal as the conditioning signal, the generated wrinkles are not always realistic, e.g., wrinkles in different directions may intersect with each other, which is not physically plausible. In contrast, using the norm Green-Lagrange strain as the conditioning signal leads to more plausible wrinkles, because it captures the stretching state of the base mesh and makes the model physics-aware.

As shown in Figure 1, our method can be applied to other clothing styles with compatible UV parameterization. The high-frequency wrinkle deformation is learned from real captures of a short-sleeve T-shirt, which can be successfully applied to long-sleeve T-shirts and tank tops. Although the learned wrinkling is only for the short-sleeve T-shirt, and may not faithfully reflect how actual long-sleeve T-shirts and tank tops deform, it enables artistic applications like wrinkle style transfer. + +Modeling fabric material variations. By changing Equation 6 and Equation 7 following classifier-free guidance [19], we can train a material-aware diffusion model for strain-conditioned wrinkle generation. Once trained, our method can generate slightly different wrinkling by altering the fabric material label for the same base mesh as illustrated in Figure 7 (a). To enable the training, we combine the two sequences T-shirt on "subject_00" and T-shirt on "subject_04" from the patterned clothing dataset [16], and align their UV parameterization. + +Image-based wrinkle fitting. Our method can be applied to down-stream tasks like image-based wrinkle fitting, where the 3D clothing can be fitted to a 2D image by matching the surface normal. This is possible by guiding [9] the wrinkle generation from our wrinkle diffusion model. In Figure 7 (b), we demonstrate the wrinkle fitting results where we first align the coarse mesh with the input image based on the body pose prediction [53]; and guide the denoising process by comparing the differentiably rendered surface normal from our model with the normal prediction [22]. Examples are from the TikTok [22] and HUMBI [51] datasets. + +![](images/1d466627354149089811ca66cc1b372f63db9467254e79c39c0cf66d439c4a8f.jpg) +Fig.7: (Left) Material-aware wrinkle generation. The strain-conditioned diffusion model is trained on a dataset of two T-shirts made with cotton and polyester, respectively. By specifying the material label for the same base mesh, our method can generate slightly different wrinkling to reflect different fabric property. (Right) Image-based wrinkle fitting. The coarse mesh is first aligned with the input image based on the body pose prediction, then the denoising process for wrinkle generation is guided by matching the differentially rendered surface normal to the normal prediction. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We have presented a generalizable method for generating high-fidelity clothing wrinkle using strain-conditioned diffusion model. It learns the correlation between the strain and the wrinkling from real clothing captures. The strain measurement captures local rotation-invariant geometric information independently of body and clothing topology, enhancing the generalizability of our method. + +Based on the strain-conditioned diffusion model for wrinkle generation, we have also presented a practical pipeline to model realistic body-dependent 3D clothing deformation for virtual avatars. Specifically, a virtual skeleton controls the coarse clothing deformation, while a CVAE captures the body-dependent latent space of this deformation. Since the coarse deformation contributes little to the realism of clothing deformation, it can be learned from low-quality synthetic body-clothing pairwise data, not to be bounded by the limited diversity of body shape and pose variations in real capture. + +Limitations and future work. Our method only models static clothing deformation, and ignores dynamics. Since dynamics is an important factor that contributes to the realism of clothing deformation, future work can extend our method to model dynamic clothing deformation. Our method does not incorporate physics-based constraints, so physical plausibility is not guaranteed, e.g., the body-clothing collision and clothing self-collision may exist in the result. Although this can be fixed by post-processing, it would be interesting to incorporate physics heuristics into our method. We use LBS for simplicity to deform the base mesh based on virtual skeletons, resulting in our coarse deformation inheriting the artifacts of LBS. Future work can explore more advanced methods to improve the realism of coarse clothing deformation. + +# References + +1.

This paper proposes a generalizable model to synthesize high-fidelity clothing wrinkle deformation in 3D by learning from real data. Given the complex deformation behaviors of real-world clothing, this task presents significant challenges, primarily due to the lack of accurate ground-truth data. Obtaining high-fidelity 3D deformations requires special equipment like a multi-camera system, which is not easily scalable. To address this challenge, we decompose the clothing into a base surface and fine wrinkles; and introduce a new method that can generate wrinkles as high-frequency 3D displacement from coarse clothing deformation. Our method is conditioned by Green-Lagrange strain field—a local rotation-invariant measurement that is independent of body and clothing topology, enhancing its generalizability. Using limited real data (e.g., 3K) of garment meshes, we train a diffusion model that can generate high-fidelity wrinkles from a coarse clothing mesh, conditioned on its strain field. Practically, we obtain the coarse clothing mesh using a body-conditioned VAE, ensuring compatibility of the deformation with the body pose. In our experiments, we demonstrate that our generative wrinkle model outperforms existing methods by synthesizing high-fidelity wrinkle deformation from novel body poses and clothing while preserving the quality comparable to the one from training data." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 507, + 230, + 520 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 507, + 230, + 520 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 507, + 230, + 520 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 593 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 593 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 533, + 482, + 593 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In the digital frontier, modeling virtual clothing has become increasingly important in many domains, ranging from fashion design to online shopping, and from animation to virtual reality.

Specifically, they extend the linear blend skinning (LBS) from a parametric body [30] to clothing, so it can be animated with the body skeleton with the generalizability to unseen body poses. However, they have difficulty in modeling loose clothing like skirt, due to the lack of accurate body estimation under loose clothing, as well as the topological gap between human body and loose clothing. Other methods [26, 37, 56] propose to model wrinkle-level clothing deformation independently of body, aiming for learning clothing deformations that can be generalized to unseen body poses without requiring large-scale body-clothing pairwise data. However, they generate wrinkles based on the normal map [26, 56] or the vertex positions [37] of the coarsely deformed clothing. These global representations are still inherently coupled with the underlying body pose, limiting their generalizability when trained on small-scale data. There is no trivial conversion of these representations from global to local. For example, a tangent-space normal map of the coarse clothing surface contains no information to the geometry [26]. For the vertex positions, transforming them to a pose-invariant canonical space can make it generalizable, but finding this canonicalization for arbitrary clothing is non-trivial.

DeepWrinkles can generate normal maps in high quality, which is applicable to rendering, but it does not directly produce detailed clothing geometry.

Since the normal map does not provide information on the geometric scale of the wrinkle, the deformed mesh may have misalignment with the ground-truth. In contrast, our method directly deforms the clothing geometry, where the surface normal can be derived trivially. DDE is good at enhancing existing wrinkles as shown in the original paper.

This paper, therefore, studies the problem of high-fidelity and transferable photo-realistic editing of 3D scenes with text instructions. With the emergence of the neural radiance field (NeRF), the photorealistic reconstruction of a 3D scene from 2D images has been significantly simplified. Thus, we employ NeRF as our 3D modeling in this work.

To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to jointly optimize novel view synthesis and style transfer for 3D scenes. Recent research like Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12] shows the possibility of retraining the NeRF with edited images. However, such a pipeline has several limitations. First, the edited scene is blurry because of the view inconsistency caused by perturbations of the 2D stable diffusion models. Second, it requires training for each scene and each style, which is time-consuming and hinders its ability to scale up.

This motivates us to do style editing on low-frequency components and transfer the high-frequency information back to the edited scene, which yields a high-resolution edited scene.

This paper enables high-fidelity, transferable NeRF editing by frequency decomposition. Recent NeRF editing pipelines lift 2D stylization results to 3D scenes while suffering from blurry results, and fail to capture detailed structures caused by the inconsistency between 2D editorings. Our critical insight is that low-frequency components of images are more multiview-consistent after editing compared with their high-frequency parts. Moreover, the appearance style is mainly exhibited on the low-frequency components, and the content details especially reside in high-frequency parts. This motivates us to perform editing on low-frequency components, which results in high-fidelity edited scenes.

This paper, therefore, studies the problem of high-fidelity and transferable photo-realistic editing of 3D scenes with text instructions. With the emergence of the neural radiance field (NeRF), the photorealistic reconstruction of a 3D scene from 2D images has been significantly simplified. Thus, we employ NeRF as our 3D modeling in this work. Given a NeRF representing an underlying 3D scene, our objective is to edit this scene according to text instructions such that the edited NeRF can render images with instructed styles that differ from the captured images.

However, existing studies [14, 16, 32, 34] have illustrated that simply combining 3D novel view synthesis and 2D style transfer often results in multi-view inconsistency or subpar stylization quality. To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to jointly optimize novel view synthesis and style transfer for 3D scenes. Recent research like Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12] shows the possibility of retraining the NeRF with edited images. However, such a pipeline has several limitations. First, the edited scene is blurry because of the view inconsistency caused by perturbations of the 2D stable diffusion models. Second, it requires training for each scene and each style, which is time-consuming and hinders its ability to scale up. These are two common problems in modern 3D content stylization frameworks [12, 24, 44]." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.63, + 0.788, + 0.841 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "To address these challenges, in this paper, we endeavor to facilitate high-fidelity and transferable NeRF stylization by decomposing the appearance in the frequency domain.

On the other hand, the low-frequency components of images, which predominantly define the appearance style, exhibit enhanced multi-view consistency after editing compared to their high-frequency counterparts. This motivates us to do style editing on low-frequency components and transfer the high-frequency information back to the edited scene, which yields a high-resolution edited scene.

However, these CLIP-based methods have limitations when it comes to localized edits. Other approaches, such as [19, 43], distill DINO [4] or Lseg [22] features to enable localized editing techniques such as 3D spatial transformations [45] and object removal [43].

This paper enables high-fidelity, transferable NeRF editing by frequency decomposition. Recent NeRF editing pipelines lift 2D stylization results to 3D scenes while suffering from blurry results, and fail to capture detailed structures caused by the inconsistency between 2D editorings. Our critical insight is that low-frequency components of images are more multiview-consistent after editing compared with their high-frequency parts. Moreover, the appearance style is mainly exhibited on the low-frequency components, and the content details especially reside in high-frequency parts. This motivates us to perform editing on low-frequency components, which results in high-fidelity edited scenes. In addition, the editing is performed in the low-frequency feature space, + +enabling stable intensity control and novel scene transfer. Comprehensive experiments conducted on photorealistic datasets demonstrate the superior performance of high-fidelity and transferable NeRF editing. The project page is at https://aigc3d.github.io/freditor. + +# 1 Introduction + +The manipulation and enhancement of three-dimensional environments through 3D scene editing is a fundamental task in the field of computer vision, with numerous practical applications in areas such as augmented reality, autonomous driving, and virtual simulation, since reconstructing a 3D scene is laborious and time-consuming, such as recovering a scene of different seasons. This paper, therefore, studies the problem of high-fidelity and transferable photo-realistic editing of 3D scenes with text instructions. With the emergence of the neural radiance field (NeRF), the photorealistic reconstruction of a 3D scene from 2D images has been significantly simplified. Thus, we employ NeRF as our 3D modeling in this work. Given a NeRF representing an underlying 3D scene, our objective is to edit this scene according to text instructions such that the edited NeRF can render images with instructed styles that differ from the captured images. This language-based interface enables easy editing of 3D content. + +Previous methods could directly perform 2D editing on the rendered image sequence [11, 15, 18] from NeRF. However, existing studies [14, 16, 32, 34] have illustrated that simply combining 3D novel view synthesis and 2D style transfer often results in multi-view inconsistency or subpar stylization quality. To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to jointly optimize novel view synthesis and style transfer for 3D scenes. Recent research like Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12] shows the possibility of retraining the NeRF with edited images. However, such a pipeline has several limitations. First, the edited scene is blurry because of the view inconsistency caused by perturbations of the 2D stable diffusion models. Second, it requires training for each scene and each style, which is time-consuming and hinders its ability to scale up. These are two common problems in modern 3D content stylization frameworks [12, 24, 44]. + +To address these challenges, in this paper, we endeavor to facilitate high-fidelity and transferable NeRF stylization by decomposing the appearance in the frequency domain. Our critical insight is that the appearance style manifests itself predominantly in the low-frequency components, and the content details reside especially in the high-frequency parts [25] including both the geometry details and the texture details, as shown in Figure 2. On the other hand, the low-frequency components of images, which predominantly define the appearance style, exhibit enhanced multi-view consistency after editing compared to their high-frequency counterparts. This motivates us to do style editing on low-frequency components and transfer the high-frequency information back to the edited scene, which yields a high-resolution edited scene. This pipeline additionally makes it easier for a style network to transfer across different scenes and styles, since the low-frequency components contain fewer scene-dependent details to preserve. + +![](images/b4997ba07b4006e5b40d56008f66a09f535fe7faa439f966f18028a163716cc9.jpg) +Fig. 2: Visualization of the difference between two styles in different frequency im- gions caused by 2D editing.

The high-frequency branch is taken care of by a standard NeRF in color-space rendering, while the low-frequency branch is taken care of in feature-space rendering, which enables easy low-frequency extraction and style editing. The raw feature or the edited feature can then be decoded by the same decoder, producing the raw low-frequency and stylized low-frequency components, respectively. Benefiting from the decomposition, we could relieve the inconsistency between edited views and recover the high-frequency details after the editing. Benefiting from the feature manipulation, we could control the editing level by interpolating in the feature space. This controllable editing is more stable than previous methods, due to the variability of high-frequency signals addressed in our framework. + +Moreover, the trained stylization could be directly transferred to a new scenario without any retraining. The stylization module could be even trained in 2D images and applied to 3D scenes, further alleviating the 3D editing workload. + +In the experiments, we demonstrate our method produces consistent and high-fidelity appearances of edited 3D scenes compared to previous methods. Also, our experiments illustrate the capability of intensity control and style transfer which are absent in the compared methods. + +The main contributions of this work are summarized in the following. + +- We decompose the low-frequency and high-frequency components in the NeRF rendering, such that the editing could be performed in the low-frequency space to better keep the multi-view consistency, and the appearance details could be retained in the high-frequency space. +- The editing is performed by a stylizer on the feature map, which is decoded by a shared decoder to the rendered color. Therefore, the intensity of the + +stylization is controllable by interpolating between the edited feature and the original feature in low-frequency space, which is particularly stable due to its low-frequency space. + +- The trained stylization is transferable to a new scenario without the need for retraining. Furthermore, we could train a stylization on a collection of 2D images and apply it to a 3D NeRF scenario. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Physical-based NeRF editing + +Physical-based approaches [2, 10, 29, 33, 40, 44, 47] impose physics-based biases, e.g., lighting and material [2, 29, 33, 40, 44] or use bounding boxes [36, 48] for specific edits like object deformation [49]. ClimateNeRF [24] combines the physical engine to simulate weather changes that are supported by the engine, e.g. snow and flood. Although the target weathers are achieved by the simulation, a physical engine is needed for each style, which is too heavy to scale up to all kinds of scenarios. In contrast, built on [12], our work enables more flexible edits in NeRFs, e.g., any global style changing or local editing of the specific object region without relying on physical properties or simulations. + +# 2.2 Artistic NeRF Editing + +Methods working on artistic NeRF editing [6,7,14,16,21,34,50] draw inspiration from image stylization [11,13] and focus on the 3D artistic stylization of NeRFs using a 2D reference artistic image. Recently, StyleRF [26] introduces feature-based zero-shot artistic style editing, but it mainly addresses global scene appearance changes and produces nonphotorealistic results. In contrast, our work leverages frequency decomposition techniques to enable high-fidelity and transferable photorealistic style editing. + +# 2.3 Text-Driven NeRF Editing + +Text-driven techniques have been integrated into NeRF stylization to facilitate convenient and user-friendly editing [12, 17, 22, 28, 37, 39]. An approach involves leveraging CLIP-based latent representations [37]. EditNeRF [27] focuses on manipulating latent codes from synthetic datasets, while ClipNeRF [45] and NeRF-Art [46] incorporate text prompts. However, these CLIP-based methods have limitations when it comes to localized edits. Other approaches, such as [19, 43], distill DINO [4] or Lseg [22] features to enable localized editing techniques such as 3D spatial transformations [45] and object removal [43]. Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12] and some follow-ups [5, 9, 20, 23] elevate instruction-based 2D image-conditioned diffusion models to 3D and allow a purely language-based interface for local and global editing. However, they require training for each scene and style, and inconsistent 2D editing can result in blurry artifacts in the edited results. To address these limitations, we introduce the frequency decomposition technique on the feature space, enabling transferable and high-fidelity NeRF editing. + +![](images/c89050fe960bc621af7ed0043859a58a2e80c4d06777f9546ea719164f06e5cf.jpg) +Fig. 4: Overall framework. Our pipeline comprises two primary branches. The high-frequency branch, reconstructed from multiview images, ensures view-consistent scene details. The low-frequency branch filters low-frequency components from the full scene feature fields, performs style transfer, and decodes the original and edited low-frequency images. Finally, the high-frequency details are reintegrated into the edited low-frequency image, resulting in a high-fidelity edited scene. + +# 3 Approach + +# 3.1 Overview + +Our goal is to achieve a series of sequential tasks, namely per-scene stylization, controllable stylization, and transferable stylization. + +Per-scene editing: Given a set of posed images $\mathcal{I} = \{I_1, \dots, I_N\}$ of an underlying 3D scene, a reconstructed 3D scene representation from $\mathcal{I}$ , and an editing instruction $S$ , the goal is to retrain the 3D scene with the text instruction and generate edited novel views $\{I_1', \dots, I_K'\}$ of the edited 3D scene from any camera poses $\{C_1', \dots, C_K'\}$ . + +Intensity control: After the editing of a 3D scene, the novel views of different editing levels $\{I_k^l\}$ could be directly rendered given the indicator $l \in [0,1]$ , where $l = 0$ indicates no-editing while $l = 1$ indicates full-editing. + +Stylization transfer: After training a style on a set of images, this style could be directly applied to a new 3D scene without retraining the stylization module on that scene. + +We propose a new frequency-decomposed stylization network to achieve the aforementioned goals, as depicted in Figure 4. Our framework comprises two main branches: a high-frequency branch dedicated to preserving content details and a low-frequency branch designed for transferable and controllable stylization. In the high-frequency branch, we employ a vanilla NeRF to reconstruct the highly detailed original scene. To achieve controllable and transferable stylization, the second branch performs low-frequency filtering and editing in the feature space. Alongside RGB values, our neural radiance field also generates a feature map of the original scene. The low-frequency branch, built on this feature map, consists of three modules. First, a low-pass filter is used to extract the low-frequency feature from the full scene. Next, a stylization network edits the scene in the feature space according to the desired style. Then, a shared decoder reconstructs + +the original and edited low-frequency images from the original and styled low-frequency feature maps, respectively. Ultimately, the high-frequency component of the original scene is obtained by subtracting the reconstructed low-frequency image from the original image. By blending the high-frequency details from the original scene with the edited low-frequency component, we obtain a high-fidelity edited image. + +# 3.2 Consistent Editing by Frequency Decomposition + +In the pipeline of lifting 2D styled results to a 3D scene, such as Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12], the primary cause of defects and blurring in edited 3D scenes is the inconsistency among different 2D edited views. To address this challenge, we make a key observation that editing in the low-frequency space provides greater ease in preserving multiview consistency, as shown in Figure 3. On the basis of this insight, we developed the frequency-decomposed stylization network. In the following section, we present evidence supporting this observation. + +To begin, we implement the decomposition of an image into its low- and high-frequency components. This decomposition process is achieved through the utilization of a low-pass filter commonly used in image processing, such as the Gaussian filter. Specifically, the filter extracts the low-frequency components from the original images. By subtracting these low-frequency components from the original image, we are left with the high-frequency details. + +Denote $\mathcal{L}:\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}\to \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ as the low-pass filter that performs image smoothing. Let $\mathcal{A}:\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}\to \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ be the stylization operation. Without losing generality, we assume + +$$ +\mathcal {A} \circ \mathcal {L} \approx \mathcal {L} \circ \mathcal {A}, +$$ + +which means we get similar results when stylizing the smoothed image and smoothing the stylized image. This assumption is applicable to most stylization and smoothing operations. + +The following theorem, which is stated informally, shows that editing in the low-frequency component leads to more consistent editing. The formal statement is deferred to the supp. material. + +Theorem 1. (Informal) Consider an optical flow-based consistency score $c(I_1, I_2)$ between images $I_1$ and $I_2$ , we have + +$$ +c \left(\mathcal {A} \left(\mathcal {L} \left(I _ {1}\right)\right), \mathcal {A} \left(\mathcal {L} \left(I _ {2}\right)\right)\right) < c \left(\mathcal {A} \left(I _ {1}\right), \mathcal {A} \left(I _ {2}\right)\right). \tag {1} +$$ + +Sketch Proof: We first show that for a smoothing operator $\mathcal{L}$ + +$$ +c (\mathcal {L} (I _ {1}), \mathcal {L} (I _ {2})) < c (I _ {1}, I _ {2}). +$$ + +As $\mathcal{A} \circ \mathcal{L} \approx \mathcal{L} \circ \mathcal{A}$ , we have + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} c \big (\mathcal {A} \left(\mathcal {L} \left(I _ {1}\right)\right), \mathcal {A} \left(\mathcal {L} \left(I _ {2}\right)\right) \big) = c \big ((\mathcal {A} \circ \mathcal {L}) \left(I _ {1}\right), \left(\mathcal {A} \circ \mathcal {L}\right) \left(I _ {2}\right) \big) \\ \approx c \left(\left(\mathcal {L} \circ \mathcal {A}\right) \left(I _ {1}\right), \left(\mathcal {L} \circ \mathcal {A}\right) \left(I _ {2}\right)\right). \\ < c \left(\mathcal {A} \left(I _ {1}\right), \mathcal {A} \left(I _ {2}\right)\right). \\ \end{array} +$$ + +The details are deferred to the supp. material. + +Based on this theoretical insight, we proceed to introduce our consistent 3D stylization networks based on frequency decomposition. + +# 3.3 Frequency Decomposed NeRF Editing in Feature Space + +Preliminaries: NeRF. NeRF [30] is a computational representation for complex 3D scenes, designed to capture complete volumetric scene information by providing a dense understanding of the photometric properties of the scene. Developed as a fully connected neural network, NeRF synthesizes new 2D images through intricate volumetric rendering of scenes based on learned 3D geometry and appearance information. Given the viewing direction $\mathbf{d}$ , for any 3D point $(x,y,z)$ in the 3D scene, the MLPs map the point to its geometry density $\sigma$ and appearance color $\mathbf{c}$ . Then for any pixel of the image to render, the points on the ray $\mathbf{r}$ corresponding to this pixel are accumulated to produce the pixel color $C(\mathbf{r})$ by ray marching $\mathbf{r}(t) = \mathbf{o} + t\mathbf{d}$ , as + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} C (\mathbf {r}) = \int_ {t _ {n}} ^ {t _ {f}} T (t) \sigma (\mathbf {r} (t)) \mathbf {c} (\mathbf {r} (t), \mathbf {d}) d t \tag {2} \\ T (t) = \exp \Big (- \int_ {t _ {n}} ^ {t _ {f}} \sigma (\mathbf {r} (s)) d s \Big) \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $t_n, t_f$ are the near and far bounds, respectively. + +Per-scene High-fidelity Editing. A vanilla trial to apply frequency-decomposed stylization on NeRF is to build a NeRF that reconstructs the low- and high-frequency components of the scene using two separate MLP headers. Specifically, one header renders high-frequency pixel colors, and the other renders low-frequency ones. Subsequently, we can perform a consistent multiview style transfer on the low-frequency header and then blend the high-frequency details back. Under this formulation, one practical system built on Instruct-NeRF2NeRF is to regard its MLP header as the blurry low-frequency branch and plug in another branch to learn the high-frequency details of the original scene. The high-frequency details can then be blended back into the edited low-frequency scene to enhance the fidelity. In this way, we can obtain high-fidelity edited scenes. + +Feature-space Rendering. Though getting high-fidelity edited results, the above per-scene editing pipeline still has several limitations. First, the MLPs are learned per scene in NeRF, limiting the ability to transfer the learned style to novel scenes. Second, the intensity of edited results is not controllable once the network is trained. To tackle these limitations, we utilize the feature field, which renders a feature map of the scene. We then perform frequency decomposition and style transfer on this feature map. In this way, the intensity control can be accomplished by feature interpolation and the transferable editing can be achieved by performing the stylization in the same feature domain. + +To obtain the feature field in NeRF, alongside the color of each point, we add another MLP header to output each point's feature $\mathbf{f}$ , which is then accumulated to a feature $\mathbf{F}$ that corresponds to the query pixel by ray-marching: + +$$ +F (\mathbf {r}) = \int_ {t _ {n}} ^ {t _ {f}} T (t) \sigma (\mathbf {r} (t)) \mathbf {f} (\mathbf {r} (t), \mathbf {d}) d t. \tag {3} +$$ + +Feature-space Decomposition. To enable transferable style editing, we enforce the rendered feature space to be in the VGG [38] feature field. This ensures that the following modules learned to process in this domain can be shared and generalized across different scenes. Given the rendered feature map of the scene, we can perform low-frequency filtering, stylization, and low-frequency image reconstruction on it. To begin, we need to extract a low-frequency feature from it and decode the original low-frequency image. Specifically, the low-frequency filter module $\mathcal{L}$ consists of several learnable low-pass filters that extract low-frequency information from the original feature map. In practice, we use convolution layers followed by downsampling to implement the low-pass filters. The low-frequency filtered feature is then fed into a convolution decoder $\mathcal{D}$ . The decoder reconstructs the original low-frequency image $C_{low}$ from the filtered low-frequency feature map, as + +$$ +C _ {l o w} = \mathcal {D} (\mathcal {L} (F)). \tag {4} +$$ + +Low-frequency Editing. To do style editing on the low-frequency feature map, we install a style module $\mathcal{S}$ between the low-frequency filter and the decoder. This style module is composed of several convolution layers with nonlinear activation. It transfers the low-frequency feature map to a feature map of the target style, and the decoder reconstructs the styled low-frequency image $C_{\text{styledLow}}$ as: + +$$ +C _ {\text {s t y l e d L o w}} = \mathcal {D} (\mathcal {S} (\mathcal {L} (F))). \tag {5} +$$ + +Given the rendered original image $C$ , the original low-frequency component $C_{low}$ , and edited low-frequency component $C_{stylledLow}$ , we blend high-frequency details from the original image to the edited image and obtain a high-resolution edited image $C_{stylled}$ as: + +$$ +C _ {\text {s t y l e d}} = \mathcal {U} \left(C _ {\text {s t y l e d L o w}}\right) + \alpha \left(C - \mathcal {U} \left(C _ {\text {l o w}}\right)\right), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{U}$ is a simple bilinear upsampling operation that interpolates the low-frequency images to the size of the original image, and $\alpha \in [0.0, 1.0]$ can adjust the level of high-frequency details blended back to the edited scene. + +# 3.4 Style Transfer and Intensity Control + +Transfer. We decompose frequencies and edit styles in the distilled VGG feature field, which enables us to transfer the learned low-frequency filter $\mathcal{L}$ , stylizer $\mathcal{S}$ , and decoder $\mathcal{D}$ from one scene to another. Specifically, For a new scene, we only need to train the high-frequency branch and the feature field. The existing $\mathcal{L}$ , + +$\mathcal{S}$ , and $\mathcal{D}$ can then be directly integrated for stylization. This saves time and computational resources as we do not have to retrain these components for each scene separately. + +Intensity Control. In many real-world applications, it is essential to have the flexibility to control the level of editing during network inference. For instance, scenarios where a gradual transition from day to night is desired. While previous approaches such as Instruct-NeRF2NeRF lack the ability to control the level of editing after training, our framework enables easy control by interpolating between the original and edited low frequency features using an indicator $l \in [0,1]$ . This interpolation process can be expressed as follows: + +$$ +C _ {l \text {S t y l e d L o w}} = \mathcal {D} (l \mathcal {S} (\mathcal {L} (F)) + (1 - l) \mathcal {L} (F)). \tag {7} +$$ + +# 3.5 Regularizations and Training Pipeline + +The high-frequency branch is trained with captured images by the mean square error (MSE) loss, following common practice for training NeRF models. The low-frequency branch is trained in two stages by first training the frequency decomposition network and then the stylization module. + +Stage 1: Training the frequency decomposition network In the first stage, we train the feature map renderer, the low-frequency filter $\mathcal{L}$ and the decoder $\mathcal{D}$ with low-frequency ground-truth RGB images and VGG feature maps. To generate ground-truth low-frequency RGB images, we utilize the commonly used Gaussian filter to extract low-frequency components from the original RGB images. To generate ground-truth VGG features, we extract features from the ReLU3-1 layer of a pre-trained VGG as [51] and bilinearly upsample that to the full size. + +Then the training objective is defined as follows. + +$$ +l = \| F - \hat {F} \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \| C _ {\text {l o w}} - \hat {C _ {\text {l o w}}} \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \operatorname {l p i p s} \left(\hat {C _ {\text {l o w}}}, \hat {C _ {\text {l o w}}}\right), \tag {8} +$$ + +where $F$ and $\hat{F}$ denote the rendered and ground-truth VGG features respectively, $C_{low}$ and $C_{low}^{\prime}$ denote the predicted and ground truth low-frequency image respectively, and lpips() denotes the perception loss function following [18]. + +Stage 2: Training the styling network In the second stage, we train the style module $S$ . To enable instruction-based photorealistic 3D editing, we transform the 2D editing results from Instruct-Pix2Pix [3] into 3D using an iterative dataset update technique following Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12]. Specifically, during training, the images rendered from NeRF will be edited by the diffusion model and subsequently used to supervise the NeRF editing module. One difference is that we only use the low-frequency components of the edited images to train our low-frequency feature stylization module $S$ , which ensures better multiview consistency. Moreover, all other modules, e.g., $\mathcal{L}$ and $\mathcal{D}$ , are frozen during this stage. Such a training scheme enables smooth progress in transferring the original low-frequency feature to the styled one. It also enables easy control of the stylization + +

Additionally, we calculate short- and long-range consistency scores, comparing adjacent and far-away views, respectively, following [6,8,14]. + +Referenceless Image Spatial Quality. According to our theorem in Formula 1, blurry smoothed images are easy to get good results under consistency metrics. Therefore, only selecting editing algorithms based on the multi-view consistency may lead to blurry results, which is not optimal. To this end, we incorporate blind image quality measurement using BRISQUE [31] and sharpness score1 to evaluate the quality and sharpness of the images. + +# 4.3 Per-scene Editing + +We first compare our method with 2D editing methods, i.e., editing the images rendered from the original NeRF [30]. From the results shown in Table 1, the inconsistency between the different views is severe. The visualization result is shown in the supplementary materials. + +By retraining the NeRF with edited images and iteratively updating the training images, Instruct-NeRF2NeRF enforces consistency in the 3D space. However, imposing 3D fusion to resolve inconsistency comes at the cost of sacrificing high-resolution details, as demonstrated in Figure 5 and Table 2. The BRISQUE quality rises from 17.46 to 38.99, and the sharpness quality decreases from 273.28 to 40.61 compared to the original scene. In contrast, our method keeps the quality and sharpness of the rendered images almost the same as in the original scene. + +We further compare our method to Instruct-NeRF2NeRF on two large-scale scenes, where retaining the fine details of the scene is more difficult. As visualized in Figure 5, blurring of the image can be perceived on various views, while the fine details are retained in our method. + +![](images/36b0294852b8260a8c2ca2be6281567a98606e8a5654e2e56b9339de83714a29.jpg) + +![](images/f315ecc374607b0b5456403d84544c7ad38779b157e496f34b3240a5789854ab.jpg) +Original +Fig.7: Ablation of frequency decomposition.

The only way to adjust the appearance is to regenerate the 2D images of different guidance scales and retrain the original NeRF, which is resource-consuming and has difficulty in fine adjustment. Benefiting from our feature-space editing regime, the continuous adjustment could be realized by tuning the interpolation indicator $l$ . To show the intensity control, we show the edited scenes with rising from 0 to 1 in Figure 6, from where we see the level of the stylization getting stronger and stronger. + +# 4.5 Style Transfer + +Previous 3D editing methods usually require training of the editing function for each scene [12]. The trained stylization cannot be transferred to other scenarios, which causes high resource consumption when editing a new scene. In contrast, benefiting from the manipulation of the low-frequency feature space, the trained stylizer in our framework could be directly applied to novel scenes, as shown in Figure 5 lower part. After training the stylizer of the instruction "Make it Autumn" or "Turn the flowers into yellow" in the first scene, we directly apply it to the second scene, where the stylizer seamlessly edits this scene to the target style. This could significantly reduce the workload of editing a 3D scene, and prompt the 3D editing to be applied to a large amount of scenes. We further train the stylizer in a collection of 2D images, and then transfer it to 3D scenes. + +# 4.6 Ablation Study + +Effect of Frequency Decomposition. To inspect the effect of frequency decomposition, we build a baseline without the decomposition and blending, i.e., there is only feature editing in one branch without the low filter. The comparison displayed in Figure 7 shows that editing without decomposition tends to bring + +artifacts, especially when transferred to a novel scene. We also report the quantitative results in the supplementary, showing that our full pipeline outperforms baseline without decomposition. This demonstrates that editing in low-frequency feature space is much easier than in full feature space, which motivates our approach. + +![](images/d548eefe5f4eb06241a7fa6cb7a5ac64e76418cf901da8e7fdc8fae7b6acd82e.jpg) +Fig. 9: Ablation of the low-frequency filter level. We plot the Clip Score indicating the editing effectiveness and the BRISQUE indicating the image quality, w.r.t the down-sampling scale of the low-frequency filter. The Clip Score is depicted by the orange line and left vertical axis, while the blue line and right vertical axes represent BRISQUE. + +Effect of Low-frequency Filter Level. The level of the low-frequency space determines where we perform the editing. Apparently, the frequency could not be unboundedly low, in which case the image contains nearly no information. Thus, we ablate the level of the low-frequency filter and visualize the results in Figure 8 and Figure 9. We change the downsampling scale of the filter to generate low-frequency images of different resolutions, from which we find that resolutions less than $1/10$ would critically reduce the editing effectiveness, while resolutions greater than $1/4$ would yield artifacts, as illustrated in Figure 9. In our experiments, we adopt a downsampling scale of $1/4$ for the balance of effective editing and without artifacts. + +# 5 Conclusions and Future Work + +This paper studies the problem of high-fidelity and transferable NeRF editing. The pivotal insight is that the low-frequency components of images, which predominantly define the appearance style, exhibit enhanced multiview consistency after editing compared to their high-frequency counterparts. This realization has prompted us to decompose the NeRF appearance into low- and high-frequency components and concentrate on editing the feature space of the low-frequency components, resulting in high-fidelity edited scenes. In addition, low-frequency editing in feature space enables stable intensity control and novel scene transfer, which are demonstrated in the experiments. + +Limitations and Future Work. In some cases, the mixing of the high-frequency component may produce conflicts with the target style, where the details are undesirable in some regions. In editing these scenarios, an intelligent $\alpha$ -blending is needed to bring about a harmonious fusion between the high-frequency details and the edited low-frequency component, which is a future direction. + +# References + +1.

This paper enables high-fidelity, transferable NeRF editing by frequency decomposition. Recent NeRF editing pipelines lift 2D stylization results to 3D scenes while suffering from blurry results, and fail to capture detailed structures caused by the inconsistency between 2D editorings. Our critical insight is that low-frequency components of images are more multiview-consistent after editing compared with their high-frequency parts. Moreover, the appearance style is mainly exhibited on the low-frequency components, and the content details especially reside in high-frequency parts. This motivates us to perform editing on low-frequency components, which results in high-fidelity edited scenes.

This paper, therefore, studies the problem of high-fidelity and transferable photo-realistic editing of 3D scenes with text instructions. With the emergence of the neural radiance field (NeRF), the photorealistic reconstruction of a 3D scene from 2D images has been significantly simplified. Thus, we employ NeRF as our 3D modeling in this work. Given a NeRF representing an underlying 3D scene, our objective is to edit this scene according to text instructions such that the edited NeRF can render images with instructed styles that differ from the captured images. This language-based interface enables easy editing of 3D content." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 354, + 482, + 498 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 354, + 482, + 498 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 354, + 482, + 498 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Previous methods could directly perform 2D editing on the rendered image sequence [11, 15, 18] from NeRF. However, existing studies [14, 16, 32, 34] have illustrated that simply combining 3D novel view synthesis and 2D style transfer often results in multi-view inconsistency or subpar stylization quality. To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to jointly optimize novel view synthesis and style transfer for 3D scenes. Recent research like Instruct-NeRF2NeRF [12] shows the possibility of retraining the NeRF with edited images. However, such a pipeline has several limitations. First, the edited scene is blurry because of the view inconsistency caused by perturbations of the 2D stable diffusion models. Second, it requires training for each scene and each style, which is time-consuming and hinders its ability to scale up.

On the other hand, the low-frequency components of images, which predominantly define the appearance style, exhibit enhanced multi-view consistency after editing compared to their high-frequency counterparts. This motivates us to do style editing on low-frequency components and transfer the high-frequency information back to the edited scene, which yields a high-resolution edited scene.

A vanilla trial to apply frequency-decomposed stylization on NeRF is to build a NeRF that reconstructs the low- and high-frequency components of the scene using two separate MLP headers. Specifically, one header renders high-frequency pixel colors, and the other renders low-frequency ones. Subsequently, we can perform a consistent multiview style transfer on the low-frequency header and then blend the high-frequency details back. Under this formulation, one practical system built on Instruct-NeRF2NeRF is to regard its MLP header as the blurry low-frequency branch and plug in another branch to learn the high-frequency details of the original scene. The high-frequency details can then be blended back into the edited low-frequency scene to enhance the fidelity.

In the area of self-supervised monocular depth estimation, models that utilize rich-resource inputs, such as high-resolution and multi-frame inputs, typically achieve better performance than models that use ordinary single image input. However, these rich-resource inputs may not always be available, limiting the applicability of these methods in general scenarios. In this paper, we propose Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator (RPrDepth), which only requires single input image during the inference phase but can still produce highly accurate depth estimations comparable to rich-resource based methods. Specifically, we treat rich-resource data as prior information and extract features from it as reference features in an offline manner. When estimating the depth for a single-image image, we search for similar pixels from the rich-resource features and use them as prior information to estimate the depth. Experimental results demonstrate that our model outperform other single-image model and can achieve comparable or even better performance than models with rich-resource inputs, only using low-resolution single-image input.", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 301, + 743, + 523 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 217, + 595, + 375, + 611 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Depth estimation is a crucial component in computer vision, particularly for applications like autonomous driving, where understanding the 3D structure of the environment is essential for navigation and decision-making.

However, when cars are stationary, obtaining images from different positions is not possible. Moreover, many multi-frame based models demonstrate improved performance when future frames are available, but these cannot be obtained in real-world applications.

These pixels, which represent objects with similar geometric relationships, can offer valuable prior information for the model. With this prior information, the single-input model can perform similarly to rich-resource models. Secondly, we investigate the intrinsic consistency present in rich-resource model predictions.

In the area of self-supervised monocular depth estimation, models that utilize rich-resource inputs, such as high-resolution and multi-frame inputs, typically achieve better performance than models that use ordinary single image input. However, these rich-resource inputs may not always be available, limiting the applicability of these methods in general scenarios. In this paper, we propose Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator (RPrDepth), which only requires single input image during the inference phase but can still produce highly accurate depth estimations comparable to rich-resource based methods. Specifically, we treat rich-resource data as prior information and extract features from it as reference features in an offline manner. When estimating the depth for a single-image image, we search for similar pixels from the rich-resource features and use them as prior information to estimate the depth. Experimental results demonstrate that our model outperform other single-image model and can achieve comparable or even better performance than models with rich-resource inputs, only using low-resolution single-image input." + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.597, + 0.377, + 0.612 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.634, + 0.788, + 0.786 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Depth estimation is a crucial component in computer vision, particularly for applications like autonomous driving, where understanding the 3D structure of the environment is essential for navigation and decision-making.

Moreover, many multi-frame based models demonstrate improved performance when future frames are available, but these cannot be obtained in real-world applications.

Firstly, we consider the features extracted from inputs with rich resources as a form of prior information. To achieve this, we utilize a collected generalized dataset with rich resources as a reference dataset. When estimating the depth for a LR single-image input, we initially search for similar pixels from the reference dataset. These pixels, which represent objects with similar geometric relationships, can offer valuable prior information for the model. With this prior information, the single-input model can perform similarly to rich-resource models. Secondly, we investigate the intrinsic consistency present in rich-resource model predictions.

Specifically, we propose three key modules. The first module is the Prior Depth Fusion, which efficiently combines the prior features. The second module is the Rich-resource Guided Loss, which guides the optimization of LR single-image models.

In the area of self-supervised monocular depth estimation, models that utilize rich-resource inputs, such as high-resolution and multi-frame inputs, typically achieve better performance than models that use ordinary single image input. However, these rich-resource inputs may not always be available, limiting the applicability of these methods in general scenarios. In this paper, we propose Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator (RPrDepth), which only requires single input image during the inference phase but can still produce highly accurate depth estimations comparable to rich-resource based methods. Specifically, we treat rich-resource data as prior information and extract features from it as reference features in an offline manner. When estimating the depth for a single-image image, we search for similar pixels from the rich-resource features and use them as prior information to estimate the depth. Experimental results demonstrate that our model outperform other single-image model and can achieve comparable or even better performance than models with rich-resource inputs, only using low-resolution single-image input. + +# 1 Introduction + +Depth estimation is a crucial component in computer vision, particularly for applications like autonomous driving, where understanding the 3D structure of the environment is essential for navigation and decision-making. Traditionally, depth information has been obtained using stereo vision [14, 18] or LiDAR systems. However, these methods can be costly and complex, motivating the exploration of monocular depth estimation. Monocular depth estimation involves deducing the depth information of a scene from a single camera. This is inherently challenging as it requires the model to infer 3D information from 2D data, a task that humans do effortlessly but is complex for machines due to the loss of spatial information in a single image. + +Recent advancements in monocular depth estimation have opened avenues for simpler, more cost-effective solutions. Godard et al. [7] introduced a simplified self-supervised model for monocular depth estimation. They employ innovative loss functions and sampling methods to achieve promising depth accuracy. Subsequently, many other methods improve the performance further by designing better network architectures [11, 19], using more suitable loss functions [13, 22, 22, 31]. Watson et al. [32] proposed an adaptive deep end-to-end cost volume-based method for dense depth estimation. Their method utilizes sequence information at test time and introduces a novel consistency loss to enhance the performance of self-supervised monocular depth estimation networks. Although this method achieves a significant improvement compared to previous works, it requires richer-resource inputs, specifically multi-frame data, during inference. Many methods follow this approach and propose highly effective depth estimators using multi-frame data inputs [5, 10]. + +In this paper, we refer to high-resolution, multi-frame data as "rich-resource data". We have noticed that many of the best-performing methods depend on rich-resource data. This poses significant challenges in real-world scenarios. In some situations, acquiring rich-resource inputs is impractical. For instance, multi-frame based models necessitate the capture of multi-frame data from varied positions. However, when cars are stationary, obtaining images from different positions is not possible. Moreover, many multi-frame based models demonstrate improved performance when future frames are available, but these cannot be obtained in real-world applications. Hence, there is a need for a method that can generate a comparable depth map to a rich-resource based model using only Low-Resolution (LR) single-image inputs. + +To address this issue, we introduce a new self-supervised method for monocular depth estimation. The proposed method leverages features extracted from rich-resource inputs as prior information, allowing the accurate depth estimation using only LR single-image inputs during inference, as shown in Fig. 1. + +To be specific, our approach pivots on the idea that while rich-resource inputs (like future frames) are challenging to obtain in application, they are accessible during the training phase. This availability allows for their utilization in guiding a LR single-image input model to enhance performance. Our methodology improves model performance with rich-resource guidance in two fundamental aspects. Firstly, we consider the features extracted from inputs with rich resources as a form of prior information. To achieve this, we utilize a collected generalized dataset with rich resources as a reference dataset. When estimating the depth for a LR single-image input, we initially search for similar pixels from the reference dataset. These pixels, which represent objects with similar geometric relationships, can offer valuable prior information for the model. With this prior information, the single-input model can perform similarly to rich-resource models. Secondly, we investigate the intrinsic consistency present in rich-resource model predictions. We observe that rich-resource models exhibit superior geometry consistency, particularly around object edges, compared to their LR single-image counterparts. Leveraging this consistency information en + +![](images/16e2eca466f29a773a511e453f430b92e3abf65343695b542276ac9b59f3eec2.jpg) + +![](images/12d727763164bbd4a41c70c5326fdb252f4f3a04c736bde03f6926c0ca387550.jpg) +Fig. 1: Our main motivation. In self-supervised monocular depth estimation, models using rich-resource inputs generally achieve better performance. We aim to extract prior data from rich-resource inputs during offline training, using it to enhance models with single images. + +hances the performance of the LR single-image model, especially in areas where depth estimation is traditionally challenging. + +In addition, we propose a feature selection algorithm to reduce the computation burden of searching reference features during inference. This algorithm effectively reduces the search space for the appropriate prior features while maintaining the same performance. Experimental results demonstrate that our method can achieve similar performance to rich-resource models when only LR single-image inputs are available. This increases the feasibility of using the depth estimation method in real-world applications. Our contributions can be summarized in four folds: + +- We propose a new approach for self-supervised monocular depth estimation that reduces the necessity for rich-resource, such as high-resolution, multi-frame and future frame data, while still achieving superior performance compared to models that depend on such inputs. +- We propose incorporating a Prior Depth Fusion Module to effectively utilize the prior information obtained from rich-resource inputs. +- We propose the Rich-resource Guided Loss by considering the depth prediction from rich-resource inputs as a pseudo label. This approach harnesses the consistency embedded in the pseudo label to enhance the quality of the LR single-image model. +- We introduce an attention-guided feature selection algorithm to reduce the computation of searching for prior depth information during inference. With + +this improvement, our model can achieve state-of-the-art performance while maintaining high processing speed with only LR single-image inputs. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Supervised Monocular Depth Estimation + +Supervised monocular depth estimation remains a core focus in computer vision, particularly for its applications in areas like autonomous vehicles and robotic navigation. This method relies on single images to infer depth maps, where each pixel value corresponds to the distance from the camera lens. In this domain, the supervised approach [1, 3, 12, 28, 28, 35, 36, 38, 41] necessitates ground truth depth data for training, presenting both opportunities and challenges. + +The groundwork in this field was proposed by Eigen and colleagues [4], who innovatively utilized a deep learning model for depth prediction under supervised conditions. Their model's architecture featured a dual network setup, one for coarser depth perception and another for capturing fine-grained depth details. Following this pioneering work, several researchers have contributed to refining this approach. For instance, Li et al. [16] introduced the use of conditional random fields to enhance depth predictions, providing a new dimension to the estimation process. + +Further explorations in geometry-based methods were conducted by Qi et al. [24], who proposed separate networks for estimating depth and surface normals from images. Ummenhofer et al. [29] contributed significantly with a network that predicts depth maps using structure from motion techniques. These advancements showcase a growing sophistication in the field. However, relying on extensive ground truth data, it is usually acquired through specialized equipment like LiDAR, limits the scalability and cost-effectiveness of these methods, and presenting an ongoing challenge for widespread application. + +# 2.2 Self-supervised Monocular Depth Estimation + +To mitigate the challenges associated with labeled data in monocular depth estimation, Garg et al. [6] pioneered a self-supervised learning methodology. This approach used stereo images during training, aiming to minimize the disparity between synthesized and real images, marking a significant shift from traditional supervised methods. + +Building upon this, Zhou et al. [6] introduced a novel technique that estimated both the depth map and camera pose using single-camera video sequences. This method enabled the creation of artificial frames, facilitating the computation of disparities with real frames. However, this approach faced challenges such as occlusion and the presence of moving objects, which impacted the accuracy of depth estimation. Addressing these issues, Godard et al. [7] introduced a new minimum loss approach, exploiting the complementary nature of occlusions in adjacent frames. This allowed the model to selectively compute losses in visible areas, enhancing the accuracy of depth predictions. To address the moving + +object problem, they devised a strategy to ignore loss values from such objects, further refining the depth estimation process. + +Subsequent research in this area has seen a variety of innovative approaches [8, 15, 21, 23, 25, 26, 42, 43]. Masoumian et al. [20] developed a multi-scale monocular depth estimation method using graph convolutional networks, offering a new perspective in this field. Guizilini et al. [9] proposed a 3D packing network, introducing a novel architecture in depth estimation. Watson et al. [33] incorporated cost volumes to build a multi-frame model, demonstrating significant improvements in depth accuracy. Furthermore, Zhou and colleagues [39] explored the integration of semantic information to enhance depth estimation, indicating the potential of combining different data types for improved results. + +Despite these advancements, most of the best performance models in this area rely on rich-resource data as input, which limits their application in scenarios where capturing rich-resource data is difficult. This has motivated us to develop a depth estimator that utilizes only low-resolution single-image data but still produces highly accurate depth maps. + +# 3 Method + +In this section, we will provide information on the proposed Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator (RPrDepth). In Sec. 3.1, we will explain the pipeline of the proposed method and how it can be trained end-to-end. In Sec. 3.2, we will introduce the core module of our method, the Prior Depth Fusion Module. Then in Sec. 3.3, we will provide detailed information about the Rich-resource Guided Loss and how it guides the optimization of the model prediction. Finally, in Sec. 3.4, we will discuss the attention-guided feature selection algorithm for reducing computation in the feature searching during the inference phase. + +# 3.1 Rich-resource Prior Depth Estimator + +Rich-resource inputs, such as high-resolution images, multi-frame inputs and future frames, are valuable for the depth estimation task. They provide more information compared to single-frame low-resolution images, which we refer to as LR single-image inputs in this paper. However, in real-world scenarios, these rich-resource inputs are not always available, limiting the application of methods that rely on them. To address this issue, we propose a LR single-image depth estimator named Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator that bridges the performance gap between the two types of input data. + +From a general perspective, LR single-image input cannot achieve the same performance as rich-resource inputs, as they lack the critical information encoded in the rich-resource inputs. For instance, when using multi-frame images as inputs, the model leverages the disparity between adjacent frames. However, LR single-image inputs do not possess this information and therefore cannot directly achieve similar performance. In this paper, we propose searching for the necessary information from the archived rich-resource inputs to bridge the + +![](images/f1fdfe1f3836ec7b68900d4c6dd38eee2def007aa077abafc010411ded985d10.jpg) +Fig. 2: Illustration of the Training Phase of Our Pipeline. Our pipeline comprises two branches: rich-resource and LR single-image. The former generates precise depth maps and features from rich-resource images, while the latter leverages these features to achieve comparable performance. + +information gap between the two types of inputs. To be specific, we prepare a sub-dataset called ref-dataset which consists of rich-resource data with a wide range of variations. When we receive a LR single-image image, we search for similar feature pixels from the ref-dataset. These pixels come from similar objects with similar geometry relationships, but they contain rich-resource data. We can use this data to fill in the missing information in the LR single-image. + +Fig. 2 provides an overview of the training pipeline for our Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator. The pipeline consists of two branches: the upper branch is propsoed for rich-resource guidance, while the lower branch represents the LR single-image model. Our method is designed to be general-purpose, allowing for the use of a multi-frame model such as [32] or a high-resolution based model [7] for the rich-resource guidance. During the training phase, the rich-resource model remains fixed without gradient computation. + +When training the model, we begin by selecting two distinct batches $I_r, I_s$ from the ref-dataset and the LR single-image training dataset. Next, we calculate the image features using the rich-resource encoder $(\mathrm{Encoder}_r)$ and the LR single-image encoder $(\mathrm{Encoder}_s)$ , respectively: + +$$ +f _ {r} = \operatorname {E n c o d e r} _ {\mathrm {r}} \left(I _ {r}\right); F _ {s} = \operatorname {E n c o d e r} _ {\mathrm {s}} \left(I _ {s}\right). \tag {1} +$$ + +After that, we use a convolution module to adjust the dimension of $f_{r}$ to match that of $F_{s}$ : + +$$ +F _ {r} = \operatorname {C o n v} _ {\mathrm {m}} \left(f _ {r}\right). \tag {2} +$$ + +To identify the most similar pixel in the reference dataset, we calculate the affinity between the target pixels and the reference pixels: + +$$ +\mathcal {A} = \operatorname {S o f t m a x} \left(F _ {s} \otimes F _ {r}\right). \tag {3} +$$ + +![](images/81f51e4c2db25937d845df09898eff41fb3e07a2ebf94147cc12eca896b0bcca.jpg) +Fig. 3: Illustration of the Prior Depth Fusion Module. + +Then, we generate the rich-resource depth map $D_r$ by passing $f_r$ into the rich-resource depth decoder: + +$$ +D _ {r} = \operatorname {D e c o d e r} _ {\mathrm {r}} \left(f _ {r}\right). \tag {4} +$$ + +To efficiently extract and fuse the critical prior information encoded in the ref-features, we propose the Prior Depth Fusion Module. This module takes $\mathcal{A}$ , $f_{r}$ , and $D_{r}$ as input and produces a prior information-rich feature $F_{o}$ as output. Finally, the values of $F_{o}$ are passed to the LR single-image decoder to generate depth predictions $D_{o}$ : + +$$ +D _ {o} = \operatorname {D e c o d e r} _ {\mathrm {s}} \left(F _ {o}\right). \tag {5} +$$ + +Finally, these predictions are used to construct the Rich-resource Guided Loss function. The entire pipeline is trained in an end-to-end manner using this loss function. Notably, the mentioned pipeline, which accepts both rich-resource and LR single-image inputs, is only used during the training phase. In the inference phase, the pipeline is adjusted to accept only LR single-image inputs, as explained in Sec. 3.4. + +# 3.2 Prior Depth Fusion Module + +In our Prior Depth Fusion Module, we have designed two types of fusion procedures to effectively extract and fuse features from the ref-dataset. These procedures are the pixel-wise fusion and the depth-hint fusion. The pixel-wise fusion is responsible for completing the missing prior information in LR single-image data using the corresponding rich-resource data as a reference. To efficiently identify the most similar pixel, we add an auxiliary loss to guide the search process. On the other hand, the depth-hint fusion aggregates the prior information from the entire ref-dataset in an attention manner, without any explicit guidance. + +Fig. 3 shows an illustration of the Prior Depth Fusion Module. In this module, we first use a transformer module to extract and fuse the depth-hint prior information from the reference features. In this transformer, we consider the reference feature $f_{r}$ as the key $K$ and value $V$ , and the target feature $F_{s}$ as the query $Q$ . Then we employ the multi-head attention to fuse the depth-hint + +information and produce the output feature $F_{d}$ : + +$$ +F _ {d} = \mathrm {M H A} (\mathrm {Q}, \mathrm {K}, \mathrm {V}). \tag {6} +$$ + +Next, we need to address the pixel-wise prior information. In the pipeline, we have calculated the affinity between the target and reference pixels. Using the affinity, $f_{r}$ and $D_{r}$ , we can construct a pixel-wise constructed reference feature map $F_{c}$ and constructed reference depth $D_{c}$ : + +$$ +F _ {c} = \mathcal {A} \times f _ {r}; D _ {c} = \mathcal {A} \times D _ {r}. \tag {7} +$$ + +Afterwards, we combine $F_{c}$ and $F_{s}$ and apply a convolution module to compress the feature map to its original number of channels. In addition to the reference features, we also take into account the output depth of the rich-resource model as valuable prior information. Consequently, we regard the prior depth map $D_{c}$ as a reference and merge it with the feature map, similar to the reference feature, as shown in the figure. Furthermore, the constructed depth map is utilized to formulate an auxiliary loss. In this process, we minimize the discrepancy between the constructed depth map and the prediction of the high-resource model. This loss function can aid in guiding the optimization of the affinity matrix. + +Notably, the Prior Depth Fusion Module involves calculating the attention matrix between the target batch and the reference batch, an operation with a space complexity of $O(MN)$ , where $M$ and $N$ are the pixel numbers of the target and reference batches, respectively. To enhance the representation of the reference data, we should use a relatively large size for the reference batch. However, this will result in a significant memory burden. To address this limitation and make the pipeline easier to train, we randomly sample features from the whole reference dataset offline (1% pixels from 2000 images). This is based on the observation that adjacent pixels have similar geometric information. Therefore, when we randomly sample from a large batch, the selected pixels can provide more contextual conditions than selecting all pixels from a smaller batch. + +# 3.3 Rich-resource Guided Loss + +To enhance the performance of the proposed pipeline and the Prior Depth Fusion Module, we recommend incorporating the Rich-resource Guided Loss, as shown in Fig. 4 (a). This loss function effectively utilizes guidance from both rich-resource inputs and the rich-resource model predictions to optimize the LR single-image model. The proposed loss function consists of two parts: the viewpoint reconstruction loss guided by rich-resource inputs and the consistency loss guided by the predictions of the rich-resource model. + +Most of the self-supervised monocular depth estimation methods use the viewpoint reconstruction loss to guide the model optimization. Following the previous method [7], we also use the viewpoint reconstruction as the main loss function. As we have rich-resource inputs available during the training phase, we choose to reconstruct the new viewpoint images from these inputs. These inputs contain more detailed information and can provide more accurate guidance for + +![](images/59edd826c823abd2c0d3d77960d50de833b5b2fe4e4f512220e0775b398b66c2.jpg) +(a) Rich-resource Guided Loss + +![](images/6099ffd09d7d9863c268c9b35fc1def3f81b173182b83e321ef5b7992e29542a.jpg) +(b) Attention Guided Feature Selection + +![](images/782f220da24e2fbe34b1dd265e20dca156aa17404dc8c4f829aaf540bea36e9c.jpg) +(c) Inference Pipeline +Fig. 4: Illustration of the Loss and Inference Pipeline.

To bridge the resolution gap between our prediction and the rich-resource inputs, we upsample the prediction with cubic interpolation algorithm to match the size of the target image, and the final reconstruction loss is defined as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {v p}} = l _ {v p} \left(\operatorname {R e s i z e} \left(D _ {o}\right), I _ {r}\right) \tag {8} +$$ + +In addition to the reconstruction loss, we also leverage the pseudo labels generated by the rich-resource model to optimize the LR single-image model. rich-resource models typically produce depth maps with greater detail accuracy, particularly in the edge areas, compared to ordinary LR single-image depth estimators. Therefore, it is meaningful to utilize the advantages of rich-resource predictions to instruct the LR single-image model. However, directly using the pseudo label as the target and minimizing the difference between the predictions and the pseudo labels is not a desirable approach. Since the models are trained in a self-supervised manner, their predictions represent relative disparity rather than accurate depth values. As a result, different models may have variations in scale in their predictions. Hence, we choose to minimize the gradients along the x and y axes between the prediction and the rich-resource predictions. + +Specifically, we start by calculating the gradient on the x and y-axis of the output depth map $D_{o}$ and the pseudo label generated offline $D_{p}$ . It's important to note that despite both $D_{p}$ and $D_{r}$ being depth maps generated by the rich-resource model, they're derived from different batches. Specifically, $D_{r}$ comes from the reference batch, while $D_{p}$ is from the training batch. Next, we normalize + +the two gradient maps and add up the x and y-gradients. + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \tilde {G} _ {x, y} (D _ {o}) = \operatorname {N o r m} (\nabla_ {x} D _ {o}) + \operatorname {N o r m} (\nabla_ {y} D _ {o}) \\ \tilde {\tilde {G}} _ {x, y} (D _ {o}) = \operatorname {N o r m} (\overline {{\boldsymbol {\Gamma}}} _ {x} D _ {o}) + \operatorname {N o r m} (\overline {{\boldsymbol {\Gamma}}} _ {y} D _ {o}) \end{array} \tag {9} +$$ + +$$ +\tilde {G} _ {x, y} (D _ {p}) = \mathrm {N o r m} (\nabla_ {x} D _ {p}) + \mathrm {N o r m} (\nabla_ {y} D _ {p}). +$$ + +We use an L1 loss to minimize the gradient difference: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {c}} = \| \tilde {G} _ {x, y} (D _ {o}) - \tilde {G} _ {x, y} (D _ {p}) \| _ {1}. \tag {10} +$$ + +Additionally, as mentioned in the previous section, we use an auxiliary loss $L_{\mathrm{aux}}$ to guide the optimization of the affinity matrix. To achieve this, we up-sample the constructed depth-map $D_{c}$ to the same size as the pseudo label $D_{p}$ . We then minimize the difference between them directly. Since $D_{c}$ is constructed directly from the pixels of the high-resource model prediction, it must have the same scale factor as $D_{p}$ . Therefore, we can simply minimize their difference rather than the gradient: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {a u x}} = \left\| D _ {p} - \operatorname {R e s i z e} \left(D _ {c}\right) \right\| _ {1}. \tag {11} +$$ + +The final loss is determined by the combination of the reconstruction loss, the consistency loss and the auxiliary loss: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \alpha \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {v p}} + \beta \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {c}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {a u x}}, \tag {12} +$$ + +where $\alpha, \beta$ are the balance ratios. + +# 3.4 Attention Guided Feature Selection + +As mentioned in the previous sections, the number of the reference dataset is crucial. The reference dataset should have sufficient variety to encompass all possible conditions that may be found in the target image. However, if the size of this reference dataset is too large, it may result in a significant computational burden when searching for the reference pixels. To overcome this limitation, we propose a new solution that involves using a subset of the reference dataset instead of the entire dataset during the inference phase. This subset is selected to be the most representative of the reference dataset. To achieve this, we introduce the attention-guided feature selection algorithm, as shown in Fig. 4 (b). The proposed algorithm selects the features from the reference dataset in an attention-based manner. + +In the depth-hint fusion procedure, the reference features are used with multi-head attention, while in the pixel-wise fusion procedure, the features are incorporated with a learnable affinity matrix. By leveraging these two weight matrices, we can determine which pixels are more important for the target image. We then aggregate the weight matrices across the entire validation dataset and calculate the average weight matrix for each pixel in the reference dataset: + +$$ +W _ {\text {a v g}} = \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \left(\mathcal {A} _ {i} + \mathcal {A} _ {\mathrm {M H A}, i}\right) \tag {13} +$$ + +Finally, we sort the pixels in the matrix and select the ones with the highest weight to represent the entire reference dataset. + +We store the pixels with the highest weight value. These pixels serve as the depth-prior data, which remains unchanged during the inference phase. Once the depth-prior data is generated, we replace it with the original rich-resource model in our pipeline and fine-tune the LR single-image model for a few epochs. Surprisingly, we find that the performance of the LR single-image model does not decrease due to the decrease in computation, but actually outperforms the original model. We attribute this to the fact that the selected pixels are more concise and meaningful, contributing to the improved performance. By eliminating other irrelevant pixels that may cause interference, the model can better learn to utilize this prior information. + +The final inference pipeline is shown in Fig. 4(c). In comparison to the original ref-dataset based pipeline, the compressed prior data is only less than $1\%$ of the original size (from 2,560,000 to 25,000 pixels), significantly reducing the computational load. + +# 4 Experiment + +For all the training and evaluation processes, we utilize one work station with a single V100 GPU. To demonstrate the enhancements, we integrate these advancements alongside a recent, highly efficient baseline known as DIFFNet [39], inspired by the HR-Net networks [19, 27]. For the high-resource guidance, we have opted for ManyDepth [32] as our choice. ManyDepth is a well-known baseline model that utilizes multi-frame images as input. During the training of our model, we specifically chose the HR version of ManyDepth to provide the feature prior and loss guidance. This model accepts multi-frame, high-resolution images along with future frames as input. + +# 4.1 Comparison on KITTI + +The KITTI dataset stands out as a widely utilized benchmark in the field of computer vision. It's also highly regarded as a benchmark in the area of self-supervised monocular depth estimation. Our approach utilizes the data partitioning strategy mentioned in [4] as a foundation for our models, and we follow the preprocessing steps outlined in [40] to eliminate static frames. During the training phase, we randomly select 2,000 triplets from the training dataset as the reference dataset, and use the remaining 37, 810 triplets as the training data. When running the feature selection procedure, we use a separated validation set as the target, ensuring that it has no overlap with the test set. + +SOTA comparison Table 1 presents our RPrDepth's assessment on the Eigen split [4], categorizing results by low and high resolutions. We utilize seven metrics for comparison, with AbsRel, SqRel, RMSE, RMSElog as error metrics where lower scores indicate better performance. Conversely, $\delta$ measures the deviation from actual depth values, with $\delta < 1.25$ , $\delta < 1.25^2$ , $\delta < 1.25^3$ being accuracy + +Table 1: The SOTA comparison on KITTI Eigen Split [4].

However, these rich-resource inputs are not always available in real-world applications. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new depth estimation model that leverages the prior information encoded in rich-resource images during the training and uses only a single image to generate the depth map during the inference phase. Specifically, we propose three key modules. The first module is the Prior Depth Fusion, which efficiently combines the prior features. The second module is the Rich-resource Guided Loss, which guides the optimization of LR single-image models. Lastly, we introduce the Attention Guided Feature Selection algorithm to enhance the searching efficiency from the reference images. We aim for our method to provide a new perspective on improving the practicality of high-performance depth estimation. + +# References + +1. Ashutosh Agarwal and Chetan Arora.

In the area of self-supervised monocular depth estimation, models that utilize rich-resource inputs, such as high-resolution and multi-frame inputs, typically achieve better performance than models that use ordinary single image input. However, these rich-resource inputs may not always be available, limiting the applicability of these methods in general scenarios. In this paper, we propose Rich-resource Prior Depth estimator (RPrDepth), which only requires single input image during the inference phase but can still produce highly accurate depth estimations comparable to rich-resource based methods. Specifically, we treat rich-resource data as prior information and extract features from it as reference features in an offline manner. When estimating the depth for a single-image image, we search for similar pixels from the rich-resource features and use them as prior information to estimate the depth. Experimental results demonstrate that our model outperform other single-image model and can achieve comparable or even better performance than models with rich-resource inputs, only using low-resolution single-image input." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 472, + 230, + 484 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 472, + 230, + 484 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 472, + 230, + 484 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 502, + 482, + 622 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 502, + 482, + 622 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 502, + 482, + 622 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Depth estimation is a crucial component in computer vision, particularly for applications like autonomous driving, where understanding the 3D structure of the environment is essential for navigation and decision-making.

Godard et al. [7] introduced a simplified self-supervised model for monocular depth estimation. They employ innovative loss functions and sampling methods to achieve promising depth accuracy. Subsequently, many other methods improve the performance further by designing better network architectures [11, 19], using more suitable loss functions [13, 22, 22, 31]. Watson et al. [32] proposed an adaptive deep end-to-end cost volume-based method for dense depth estimation. Their method utilizes sequence information at test time and introduces a novel consistency loss to enhance the performance of self-supervised monocular depth estimation networks.

However, when cars are stationary, obtaining images from different positions is not possible. Moreover, many multi-frame based models demonstrate improved performance when future frames are available, but these cannot be obtained in real-world applications.

This availability allows for their utilization in guiding a LR single-image input model to enhance performance. Our methodology improves model performance with rich-resource guidance in two fundamental aspects. Firstly, we consider the features extracted from inputs with rich resources as a form of prior information. To achieve this, we utilize a collected generalized dataset with rich resources as a reference dataset. When estimating the depth for a LR single-image input, we initially search for similar pixels from the reference dataset. These pixels, which represent objects with similar geometric relationships, can offer valuable prior information for the model. With this prior information, the single-input model can perform similarly to rich-resource models. Secondly, we investigate the intrinsic consistency present in rich-resource model predictions. We observe that rich-resource models exhibit superior geometry consistency, particularly around object edges, compared to their LR single-image counterparts.

Additionally, compared to other single image models, our model can address incorrect depth predictions caused by texture, as seen in Fig. 5 (c) with the arrow on the road.

Specifically, we propose three key modules. The first module is the Prior Depth Fusion, which efficiently combines the prior features. The second module is the Rich-resource Guided Loss, which guides the optimization of LR single-image models.

Mesh-based facial blendshapes have been widely used in animation pipelines, while recent advancements in neural geometry and appearance representations have enabled high-quality inverse rendering.

The time of the $i$ th frame can be calculated as $t_i^k = t_s^k + \\frac{i}{r_k}$ , where $r_k$ is the frame rate. $t_i^k$ will be used to regress parameters containing face rotation $R_i^k$ , translation $t_i^k$ , and expression coefficients $\\beta_i^k$ with the neural regressor as:", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 267, + 787, + 445 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "equation", + "text": "\n$$\nR _ {i} ^ {k}, \\boldsymbol {t} _ {i} ^ {k}, \\boldsymbol {\\beta} _ {i} ^ {k} = \\operatorname {G r i d} \\left(t _ {i} ^ {k}\\right) \\tag {4}\n$$\n", + "text_format": "latex", + "bbox": [ + 424, + 446, + 784, + 465 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Compared to another viewpoint $k'$ , while $t_i^k$ and $t_i^{k'}$ are not captured at the same time, they have independent motion parameters, and the neural regressor ensures smoothness for temporally close parameters.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 469, + 787, + 516 + ], + "page_idx": 6 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "To address the exposure difference among different viewpoints, we assign a learnable latent code for each camera $\\pmb{h}_k$ when rendering.

This ensures seamless compatibility with animation pipelines and precise alignment with facial performances in RGB videos. Our contributions extend to an efficient inverse rendering framework that integrates neural shading with blendshapes, enabling the reconstruction of animation-ready facial rigs under diverse lighting and materials. A novel blendshape deformation technique, incorporating differential coordinates augmented with tetrahedral connections and semantic regularization, is introduced to enhance the expressiveness and adherence to volumetric Laplacian regularization. Experiments showcase the effectiveness of our approach in obtaining high-quality, animation-ready facial rigs from single or sparse multi-view videos, underscoring its accuracy and animation applicability.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 613, + 787, + 840 + ], + "page_idx": 13 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "14", + "bbox": [ + 217, + 114, + 235, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 13 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "X.

Mesh-based facial blendshapes have been widely used in animation pipelines, while recent advancements in neural geometry and appearance representations have enabled high-quality inverse rendering. Building upon these observations, we introduce a novel technique that reconstructs mesh-based blendshape rigs from single or sparse multi-view videos, leveraging state-of-the-art neural inverse rendering. We begin by constructing a deformation representation that parameterizes vertex displacements into differential coordinates with tetrahedral connections, allowing for high-quality vertex deformation on high-resolution meshes. By constructing a set of semantic regulations in this representation, we achieve joint optimization of blendshapes and expression coefficients. Furthermore, to enable a user-friendly multi-view setup with unsynchronized cameras, we use a neural regressor to model time-varying motion parameters. Experiments demonstrate that, with the flexible input of single or sparse multi-view videos, we reconstruct personalized high-fidelity blendshapes. These blendshapes are both geometrically and semantically accurate, and they are compatible with industrial animation pipelines.

In addition to detecting facial landmarks from RGB inputs to fit facial statistical models [11, 12, 57], differentiable rendering [29] can improve the reconstruction fidelity by harnessing dense pixel observations. However, overly-simplified rendering models cause under-fitting of facial material and arbitrary lighting, thereby negatively impacting the shape reconstruction quality. With the recent advancements in neural inverse rendering [41, 55], techniques like neural facial avatars [4, 21, 27, 72-74] can generate realistic animatable avatars from common RGB recordings. However, these techniques do not rely on high-quality topology-consistent mesh representation and thus are not compatible with the industrial animation pipeline, impacting their practical utility. To bridge the gap between realistic modeling and compatibility with current animation pipelines using easy recording setups, we, on one hand, represent dynamic facial modeling as a blendshape rig [34], consisting of topology-consistent facial meshes for various expressions. On the other hand, we optimize the blendshape with novel per-vertex deformation schemes to precisely match the generated animation to the facial performance in RGB videos (inverse rendering).

Secondly, there is an ambiguity in optimizing either expression bases or coefficients to fit users' arbitrary facial performance, and prior methods [4,21,27,72,74] typically circumvent this by excluding expression coefficients from the optimization (estimating them through a pre-processing step [57]) thus only reaching local optima.

Deformation transfer [52] can personalize template blendshapes from a neutral expression mesh. Furthermore, data-driven priors are utilized to predict personalized expression bases from a neutral scan or image [37, 70]. To achieve higher degrees of personalization from more observations, some works [35] take input from multiple scans with predefined expressions, while some [28] require users to make specific key expressions during the capture process. Efforts on exploring more user-friendly capture procedures [6, 25, 36, 62] focus on utilizing performance sequences where users make arbitrary facial expressions to generate expression blendshapes. Updating blendshapes requires careful design to avoid mesh non-smoothness, thus techniques such as reduced subspace [6] and corrective shapes [25, 36] are employed to constrain deformations. To resolve the ambiguity between expression bases and expression coefficients, semantic emotion priors are proposed to constrain expressions [62].

Dynamic object modeling is achieved via neural deformation fields [8, 49], but do not incorporate expression-driven retargeting. Some works [2, 15, 21, 23, 69, 74] extend NeRF [41] to expression-driven dynamic faces.

Expression-related nasolabial folds are properly deactivated when the skin is relaxed (fourth column). Our facial rig includes complete teeth that can be properly driven (second and fourth column). Due to limited observations, our teeth do not receive vertex deformation. However, constraints on the teeth are considered during optimization to ensure compatibility with lip movements. This ensures that even when updating the expression basis for lip movements, there is no penetration with the teeth." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.674, + 0.788, + 0.719 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Usage in Blender.

This ensures seamless compatibility with animation pipelines and precise alignment with facial performances in RGB videos. Our contributions extend to an efficient inverse rendering framework that integrates neural shading with blendshapes, enabling the reconstruction of animation-ready facial rigs under diverse lighting and materials.

Mesh-based facial blendshapes have been widely used in animation pipelines, while recent advancements in neural geometry and appearance representations have enabled high-quality inverse rendering. Building upon these observations, we introduce a novel technique that reconstructs mesh-based blendshape rigs from single or sparse multi-view videos, leveraging state-of-the-art neural inverse rendering. We begin by constructing a deformation representation that parameterizes vertex displacements into differential coordinates with tetrahedral connections, allowing for high-quality vertex deformation on high-resolution meshes. By constructing a set of semantic regulations in this representation, we achieve joint optimization of blendshapes and expression coefficients. Furthermore, to enable a user-friendly multi-view setup with unsynchronized cameras, we use a neural regressor to model time-varying motion parameters. Experiments demonstrate that, with the flexible input of single or sparse multi-view videos, we reconstruct personalized high-fidelity blendshapes. These blendshapes are both geometrically and semantically accurate, and they are compatible with industrial animation pipelines. Code and data are available at https://github.com/grignarder/high-quality-blendshape-generation. + +Keywords: Facial Rig $\cdot$ Neural Inverse Rendering + +# 1 Introduction + +Synthesizing realistic 3D facial animations has long held significant applications in the movie and gaming industry. Accurate modeling of facial geometry and expression deformation constitutes a fundamental challenge for this task. In the industry, modeling usually involves a studio-level multi-view setup [3,18,26] to capture facial performances of real humans, along with the artist's manual effort to generate a facial rig. This facial rig is then imported into an animation pipeline [13,60] for game and movie production. VR and AR applications further require modeling facial rigs for a vast user base, necessitating an automated approach for facial modeling from widespread capture setups. One critical requirement is that the modeled face rig must be compatible with the animation pipeline to enable downstream animation applications. + +![](images/1ff8ce8ad100c3a1ad41e294aec419331d6290e11223b2ddf72ef1f55cf73029.jpg) +Fig. 1: With the input of sparse multi-view face videos (shown on the left), our technique reconstructs personalized mesh-based blendshapes (examples shown on the right) that are ready to be used in the industrial animation pipeline. + +RGB cameras are prevalent on everyday mobile devices, making them a popular choice for user-friendly facial reconstruction in numerous works. In addition to detecting facial landmarks from RGB inputs to fit facial statistical models [11, 12, 57], differentiable rendering [29] can improve the reconstruction fidelity by harnessing dense pixel observations. However, overly-simplified rendering models cause under-fitting of facial material and arbitrary lighting, thereby negatively impacting the shape reconstruction quality. With the recent advancements in neural inverse rendering [41, 55], techniques like neural facial avatars [4, 21, 27, 72-74] can generate realistic animatable avatars from common RGB recordings. However, these techniques do not rely on high-quality topology-consistent mesh representation and thus are not compatible with the industrial animation pipeline, impacting their practical utility. To bridge the gap between realistic modeling and compatibility with current animation pipelines using easy recording setups, we, on one hand, represent dynamic facial modeling as a blendshape rig [34], consisting of topology-consistent facial meshes for various expressions. On the other hand, we optimize the blendshape with novel per-vertex deformation schemes to precisely match the generated animation to the facial performance in RGB videos (inverse rendering). Once converged, the obtained blendshape can be imported into animation software (e.g. Blender [17]) to generate realistic person-specific facial animations for industrial applications. + +To achieve high-quality shape reconstruction and animation by optimizing the blendshape rig via neural inverse rendering, we propose techniques to solve three unaddressed issues. The first arises in optimizing per-vertex deformations of a high-resolution mesh, which can be non-smooth and suffer from self-intersections. By applying differential coordinates to parameterize blendshape meshes augmented with tetrahedral connections, we facilitate gradient propagation along topologically and spatially adjacent vertices, ensuring smooth deformation. Secondly, there is an ambiguity in optimizing either expression bases or coefficients to fit users' arbitrary facial performance, and prior methods [4,21,27,72,74] typically circumvent this by excluding expression coefficients from the optimization (estimating them through a pre-processing step [57]) thus only reaching local optima. We aim to improve convergence by joint optimization with novel regularization techniques that enforce the symmetry, sparsity, and semantics of expression bases to solve the ambiguity. Thirdly, multi-view inputs are + +![](images/2fdf1a76b9644afdb98abd7a237515c617e0ebb071345778423ab01c4d4ca9f5.jpg) +Fig. 2: Method pipeline. We model the human head as a person-specific facial rig that includes a neutral face and a set of blendshapes. This rig is derived from template blendshapes through tetrahedralizing and reparameterizing per-vertex deformation. The head poses $R, t$ and expression coefficients $\beta_{exp}$ are regressed from the timestamps corresponding to each frame by a neural synchronization regressor, which achieves implicit synchronization between the multi-view, not fully synchronized videos. Combined with the facial rig, the dynamic face geometry is obtained. Afterwards, a neural rendering MLP renders the corresponding images according to the latent codes, normals, and view directions acquired through differentiable rasterization. Finally, we leverage the rendering loss, landmark loss, and rigging regularization terms to jointly optimize the facial rig, the neural regressor, and the neural rendering MLP. + +useful for accurately reconstructing non-rigid facial deformations [22], but previous research usually does not presume that multi-view inputs are readily available, as they are typically linked with complex procedures such as synchronization and color correction. We incorporate sparse multi-view inputs from unsynchronized smartphones by utilizing a neural regressor to model time-dependent motion parameters, implicitly ensuring temporal synchronization. In summary, our contributions include: + +- A video-based facial rigging technique that bridges traditional animation pipelines and neural inverse rendering to achieve high-quality animation-ready facial rig reconstruction from single or sparse multi-view videos (as shown in Fig. 1), and +- a novel blendshape deformation technique that parameterizes differential coordinates augmented with tetrahedral connections, involving a set of semantic regularization into a joint optimization. + +# 2 Related Work + +3D Facial Performance Capture. Many studies have been devoted to generating realistic 3D animations from users' facial performance. High-quality facial animation can be reconstructed through a studio-level multi-view setup [3,7,20]. However, this involves intricate procedures for dozens of professional cameras, + +including synchronization and color correction. To enable facial performance capture using ubiquitous devices, morphable models [5,61] are fitted from monocular RGB or RGBD videos [11,12,63]. To achieve a more personalized facial geometry beyond the morphable model, fine-level displacements are introduced on the facial mesh to synthesize nuanced facial details [10,24,40]. Due to the inherent ambiguity in non-rigid facial reconstruction from monocular input, deformation is highly constrained. In attempts to address such limitation, efforts extend to sparse views and observe reconstruction improvements [9,59]. Establishing a simple and user-friendly sparse view setup remains an active research topic. While the aforementioned approaches can reconstruct dynamic facial geometries, additional efforts are required to organize the performance data into a facial rig for convenient editing and synthesis of novel facial animations. + +3D Facial Rigging. Rigging aims to generate a personalized facial expression model from the user's performance, typically represented using blendshapes [34] for compatibility with the animation pipeline. Deformation transfer [52] can personalize template blendshapes from a neutral expression mesh. Furthermore, data-driven priors are utilized to predict personalized expression bases from a neutral scan or image [37, 70]. To achieve higher degrees of personalization from more observations, some works [35] take input from multiple scans with predefined expressions, while some [28] require users to make specific key expressions during the capture process. Efforts on exploring more user-friendly capture procedures [6, 25, 36, 62] focus on utilizing performance sequences where users make arbitrary facial expressions to generate expression blendshapes. Updating blendshapes requires careful design to avoid mesh non-smoothness, thus techniques such as reduced subspace [6] and corrective shapes [25, 36] are employed to constrain deformations. To resolve the ambiguity between expression bases and expression coefficients, semantic emotion priors are proposed to constrain expressions [62]. Some deep-learning-based methods [14, 54] propose an end-to-end framework that learns a personalized face model from a corpus of in-the-wild videos. Our work introduces a vertex deformation representation that enables high-fidelity deformation of blendshapes while enforcing smoothness. We also design constraints to maintain semantic coherence in expression blendshapes. + +Neural Inverse Rendering. Differentiable rendering [32, 39, 47] can leverage gradient backpropagation to optimize geometry, material and lighting to achieve inverse rendering-based reconstruction. Facial materials, influenced by subsurface scattering [19], are challenging to represent using simplified rendering models, which can lead to underfitting in differentiable rendering. Recent advances in neural rendering [41, 56, 64] bypass this limitation by directly modeling the emitting radiance via neural networks, achieving realistic novel-view synthesis [41, 56] and reconstruction [64] of static objects. Dynamic object modeling is achieved via neural deformation fields [8, 49], but do not incorporate expression-driven retargeting. Some works [2, 15, 21, 23, 69, 74] extend NeRF [41] to expression-driven dynamic faces. However, the density-based representation employed by their methods lacks explicit geometric regularization, often lower- + +ing the quality of novel views. Alternative representations such as implicit fields, point clouds and 3D Gaussians [46, 68, 72, 73] are explored, but compatibility with animation pipelines remains a challenge. Neural Head Avatars [27] can obtain a mesh representation after a long training time, but with a primary focus on rendering quality rather than accurate geometry reconstruction, frequently leading to details being baked in textures. FLARE [4] explores the use of mesh-based representation for fast learning of facial avatars. Compared to their works, our emphasis lies more on the geometric quality and compatibility of animation. Therefore, we jointly optimize blendshapes and expression coefficients, incorporate regularization to maintain the semantics of the updated blendshapes, and achieve accurate reconstruction evaluated by point-to-plane distance. + +# 3 Method + +We aim to reconstruct personalized mesh-based blendshapes from RGB videos. Personalization involves per-vertex deformation applied to the blendshapes. We propose a deformation representation, outlined in Sec. 3.1, to ensure smoothness and prevent self-intersection for high-resolution meshes. Based on the representation, the deformations are further regularized, introduced in Sec. 3.2, to maintain the semantics of the expression blendshapes. The sparse multi-view inputs, which are used to guide the deformations, are implicitly synchronized by a neural synchronization regressor illustrated in Sec. 3.3. Additionally, with a neural rendering pipeline in Sec. 3.4 to render the animated faces, we compare the rendered faces with the input to reconstruct the blendshape deformation. To be specific, the reconstruction is solved by the joint optimization of the blendshape deformation, the rendering network, and the synchronization regressor in Sec. 3.5. Fig. 2 represents an overview of our method. + +# 3.1 Vertex Deformations with Tetrahedral Connections + +The facial shape is represented by a mesh where a neutral face $\mathbf{b}_n$ describes its identity and blendshapes [34] describe its expression deformation. This blendshape model represents a face with a specific expression as $\mathbf{b}_{\beta} = \mathbf{b}_n + B_{\mathrm{exp}}\pmb{\beta}_{\mathrm{exp}}$ , where $\mathbf{b}_n$ denotes the user-specific neutral face, $B_{\mathrm{exp}} \in \mathbb{R}^{3N \times M_{\mathrm{exp}}}$ denotes the blendshape model, and $\beta_{\mathrm{exp}} \in \mathbb{R}^{M_{\mathrm{exp}}}$ represents the expression coefficients. Our objective is to generate a person-specific facial rig consisting of a neutral face $\mathbf{b}_n^*$ and a set of blendshapes $B_{\mathrm{exp}}^*$ by solving per-vertex deformation applied to $\mathbf{b}_n$ and $B_{\mathrm{exp}}$ from a base blendshape model (ICT Face Model [38] in our experiments). + +However, directly optimizing per-vertex deformation poses challenges for convergence [43]. To ensure smoothness and prevent self-intersection cavities, we devise a vertex parameterization that implicitly satisfies volumetric Laplacian regularization. First, we parameterize vertex displacements into differential coordinates [51], inspired by [43]. The parameterization propagates vertex gradients to neighboring vertices based on mesh connectivity, effectively enforcing smooth + +deformation. However, there is no gradient propagation between spatially adjacent but not directly connected vertices, and mesh self-intersection can still occur. Therefore, we augment mesh connectivity via internal tetrahedral filling. Specifically, we use TetGen [50] to fill the closed space between the surface and corresponding internal sockets with tetrahedras, preventing interpenetration due to large deformations. More details about tetrahedral filling can be found in our supplementary document. We use $\varPhi$ to denote the process of tetrahedralizing and reparameterizing per-vertex deformation. The personalized neutral face is represented as $\mathbf{b}_n^* = \varPhi(\mathbf{b}_n)$ . Blendshapes are deformed similarly as $B_{\mathrm{exp}}^* = \varPhi(B_{\mathrm{exp}})$ . + +Discussion. [27, 73] employ MLPs to regress deformations from canonical vertex coordinates, observing that the output deformations exhibit spatial smoothness. We attribute this phenomenon to the shared network among vertices, where during backpropagation, the gradient of one vertex influences others, with a greater impact on adjacent vertices [53]. We have employed a network-free method that achieves similar effects, propagating vertex gradients to topologically and spatially adjacent vertices. This approach is memory-efficient, faster, and suitable for applications with multiple ( $M_{\mathrm{exp}} = 53$ ) blendshape bases. + +# 3.2 Rigging Regularization + +Blendshapes have clear semantics due to their connection with facial action units [45]. However, the semantics may be corrupted due to ambiguity as we optimize both expression coefficients $\beta_{\mathrm{exp}}$ and blendshapes $B_{\mathrm{exp}}^{*}$ simultaneously. To this end, we propose regularizations based on three principles, namely locality, sparsity, and symmetry, to ensure that we obtain a semantically consistent rig. + +Locality. Each blendshape corresponds to an action unit, and its deformation has a localized influence region. Inspired by [14], the update of a blendshape should be concentrated on its original activation region. To this end, we first compute the per-vertex deforming weights $W \in \mathbb{R}^{3N \times M_{\mathrm{exp}}}$ based on the initial blendshapes given by + +$$ +W \left(3 i: 3 i + 2, j\right) = \exp \left(- \frac {\| B _ {\mathrm {e x p}} \left(3 i : 3 i + 2 , j\right) \| _ {2}}{a}\right) \qquad (1) +$$ + +where $a$ is a hyperparameter controlling the smoothness of the activation region boundary. + +The weight is used to compute the locality loss defined as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {l o c a l i t y}} = \left\| W \odot \left(B _ {\exp} ^ {*} - B _ {\exp}\right) \right\| _ {F} \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\odot$ denotes element-wise multiplication. + +Sparsity. The dynamic facial deformation should be explained by only a few blendshapes. When multiple blendshape coefficients are wrongly activated during optimization, a sparsity regularization on blendshapes can prevent the deformation to be averaged into multiple blendshapes. The sparsity loss is defined as: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {s p a r s i t y}} = \left\| B _ {\exp} ^ {*} - B _ {\exp} \right\| _ {p} \tag {3} +$$ + +with $p < 1$ . We use $p = 0.75$ in the experiments. + +Symmetry. The blendshapes which are symmetric for the left and right faces should still maintain symmetry. We manually select the symmetric ones from the initial blendshapes, and only update their left half faces. The right half faces are obtained by symmetry. + +# 3.3 Sparse Multi-View Handling + +Accurate modeling of dynamic faces from monocular videos is an ill-posed problem [22]. However, increasing the number of viewpoints often incurs cumbersome setups such as synchronization. Conversely, we allow unsynchronized RGB videos captured from mobile phones as input. To address the issue of incomplete time synchronization among multiple devices, we propose to use a one-dimensional Instant-NGP [42] to store temporal information to implicitly ensure synchronization. Specifically, for each viewpoint $k$ , we record the video start time $t_s^k$ from the system clock of the mobile phone. The time of the $i$ th frame can be calculated as $t_i^k = t_s^k + \frac{i}{r_k}$ , where $r_k$ is the frame rate. $t_i^k$ will be used to regress parameters containing face rotation $R_i^k$ , translation $t_i^k$ , and expression coefficients $\beta_i^k$ with the neural regressor as: + +$$ +R _ {i} ^ {k}, \boldsymbol {t} _ {i} ^ {k}, \boldsymbol {\beta} _ {i} ^ {k} = \operatorname {G r i d} \left(t _ {i} ^ {k}\right) \tag {4} +$$ + +Compared to another viewpoint $k'$ , while $t_i^k$ and $t_i^{k'}$ are not captured at the same time, they have independent motion parameters, and the neural regressor ensures smoothness for temporally close parameters. + +To address the exposure difference among different viewpoints, we assign a learnable latent code for each camera $\pmb{h}_k$ when rendering. Details will be explained in the next section. + +# 3.4 Mesh-based Neural Deferred Rendering + +Mesh-based face models enable us to perform efficient rendering using differentiable rasterization [32]. However, overly simplified rendering models may suffer from underfitting due to the complex material of the face and arbitrary lighting. Motivated by [65], We use a technique that combines neural rendering and deferred rendering from real-time rendering pipelines. Specifically, a latent code is assigned to each mesh vertex, which represents the neural texture. In the rendering process, the mesh is first rasterized, yielding the triangle indices and barycentric coordinates for each pixel, which are used to interpolate the latent codes, vertex normals and view directions. Then, we use a learnable MLP-based shader to regress the per-pixel RGB color: + +$$ +f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}} \left(\boldsymbol {z}, \boldsymbol {n}, \boldsymbol {\omega}, \boldsymbol {h} _ {k}\right) \in [ 0, 1 ] ^ {3} \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{z}$ denotes the latent code, $\mathbf{n}$ denotes the normal, $\boldsymbol{\omega}$ denotes the view direction, $\mathbf{h}_k$ denotes the learnable latent code assigned to the $k$ -th viewpoint and $\boldsymbol{\theta}$ denotes the network parameters. + +# 3.5 Joint Optimization + +Our optimization objective integrates multiple loss components to collectively optimize all trainable parameters from randomly initialized values, including the facial rig, the neural regressor, and the neural shader. The formulation of the joint optimization objective is expressed as follows: + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {t o t a l}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {l d m k}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {p h o t o m e t r i c}} \\ + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {L a p l a c i a n}} + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {l o c a l i t y}} \tag {6} \\ + \mathcal {L} _ {\text {s p a r s i t y}} + \mathcal {R} _ {\text {e x p}} + \mathcal {R} _ {\text {n e u t r a l}} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +This objective function encapsulates various aspects, including landmark loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ldmk}}$ , mask loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{mask}}$ , photometric loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{photometric}}$ , Laplacian loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{Laplacian}}$ , expression regularization $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{exp}}$ , and regularization for template deformation $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{neutral}}$ . $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{sparsity}}$ and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{locality}}$ have been explained in the previous section. $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ldmk}}$ enforces accurate prediction of facial landmarks, + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {l d m k}} = \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \| \hat {v} _ {i} - v _ {i} \| _ {1} \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\hat{v}$ indicates the landmarks projected on images and $v$ indicates the detected $N$ landmarks. $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{exp}}$ serves as the sparsity regularizer, + +$$ +\mathcal {R} _ {\mathrm {e x p}} = \left\| \boldsymbol {\beta} _ {\mathrm {e x p}} \right\| _ {1} \tag {8} +$$ + +where $\beta_{\mathrm{exp}}$ is the expression coefficient. $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{mask}}$ ensures the alignment of rendered masks $\hat{M}$ and segmented masks $M$ , and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{photometric}}$ enforces consistency between rendered images $\hat{I}$ and captured images $I$ + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {m a s k}} = \left\| \hat {M} - M \right\| _ {1} \tag {9} +$$ + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {p h o t o m e t r i c}} = \left\| M \odot (\hat {I} - I) \right\| _ {1} \tag {10} +$$ + +where $\odot$ denotes element-wise multiplication. $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{Laplacian}}$ enforces smoothness of latent codes between adjacent vertices. + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {L a p l a c i a n}} = \| L U \| ^ {2} \tag {11} +$$ + +where $L$ is the Laplacian matrix and $U$ denotes the per-vertex latent codes, with its $i$ -th row storing the latent code of the $i$ -th vertex. $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{neutral}}$ constrains deformation of the neutral face. + +$$ +\mathcal {R} _ {\text {n e u t r a l}} = \left\| \mathbf {b} _ {n} ^ {*} - \mathbf {b} _ {n} \right\| _ {2} ^ {2} \tag {12} +$$ + +This comprehensive optimization objective facilitates the joint refinement of our pipeline. In our experiment, the $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ldmk}}$ (including the landmarks on eye balls) and $\mathcal{R}_{\mathrm{exp}}$ are initially activated to obtain a coarse alignment. After a number of epochs, we proceed to enable all the loss components. + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section, we first describe the implementation details of our method and provide information about the used datasets. Next, we qualitatively and quantitatively compare the accuracy of geometric reconstruction with previous works. We then conduct ablation studies to assess the impact of the deformation representation on vertex optimization and the role of semantic regularization in constraining expression bases. Finally, we demonstrate the application of our method in animation, including expression retargeting and novel-view synthesis. More results can be found in our supplementary document and video. + +# 4.1 Implementation Details + +For the input videos, we use Facer [71] to obtain the facial landmarks and masks. We use a three-layer MLP as the neural renderer, which has 64 hidden units and uses ReLU as the activation function. In the hierarchical grids of our neural synchronization regressor, we use 6 grid scales with a base resolution of 8, and we use 4 channels per level. We use Nvdiffrast [32] as the differentiable rasterizer. For the neural renderer and the regressor, we use an Adam [30] optimizer with $\eta = 1e^{-3}$ and $\beta = (0.9,0.999)$ . The facial rig is updated using an AdamUniform [43] optimizer, with the same parameters as the Adam optimizer. We train our model for 200 epochs, with all loss functions activated for the last 120 epochs. + +# 4.2 Datasets and Metrics + +Datasets We capture our dataset using four mobile phones for qualitative comparisons. Additionally, we conduct qualitative and quantitative evaluations on the Multiface [67] and NeRSemble [31] datasets, which feature high-quality multi-view captures of different identities with rich expressions. We utilize MetaShape [1] to reconstruct accurate 3D scans from all available views of the two datasets (38 in [67] and 16 in [31]) as the ground truth. For each dataset, we manually select four views as the inputs to simulate the sparse-view setup, like [49]. All experiments in the main paper are conducted with four-view inputs.

PointAvatar [73] claims to achieve comparable geometry reconstruction with [72].

We also compare our method with HRN [33], which is trained on large-scale in-the-wild images for accurate face reconstruction and can accept multi-view image inputs. We modified the baselines so that all methods use input from four views. As shown in Table 1, our method surpasses other methods in point-to-plane errors on both datasets. Lower errors are also evident in the visualized heatmaps in Fig. 3, where we achieve more accurate reconstruction, especially in the forehead and nose regions.

The first row shows the source expressions. The following rows show the retargeting results, where the images in the first column show the neutral expression of the target identities. + +the left half of Fig. 5, the utilization of differential coordinates in the optimization process significantly enhances the smoothness of the face surface, effectively eliminating numerous artifacts while preserving geometry accuracy. Replacing differential coordinates with a Laplacian regularizer could also increase smoothness, but it fails to prevent self-intersections and geometrically mismatches the target (third column). The right half in Fig. 5 illustrates the results of using tetrahedral connections during the vertex deformation process. When the user exhibits extreme facial expressions, such as a puckered mouth, there is a risk of penetration between the mouth socket and the facial surface, especially for high-resolution meshes. The twisting of the nose, due to the presence of the nasal cavity, may result in similar issues. Even if it occurs in a limited region, it poses significant challenges for artists in refining and adjusting the reconstructed facial rigs. By establishing tetrahedral connections between surface points and internal socket points, we effectively mitigated the penetration without compromising the accuracy of deformation. + +To evaluate the impact of blendshape updates and semantic regularization in the updates, we visualize the obtained expression bases under different settings in Fig. 6. The first column showcases a frame from the input sequence where the user makes a puffy expression. Our objective is to update the personalized one-sided puffy expression basis based on the inputs. If expressions are made only in the expression space of the ICT morphable model (second column), the resulting face deviates significantly from the user's identity, lacking personalization. If the expression basis is updated without applying semantic + +regularization, identity-specific hair details are missing on the neutral face (third column). The relevant detail components appear inappropriately in the expression basis (fourth column, highlighted by red boxes). When applying semantic regularization, our method can reconstruct a high-quality neutral face (fifth column) that includes all identity-related facial details. However, if the expression basis is not updated and template blendshapes are directly applied to deform the personalized neutral face, artifacts due to mismatched deformations occur in the deformed region (sixth column, highlighted by red boxes). After updating the expression basis and applying semantic regularization, our method synthesizes high-quality personalized expression bases (seventh column). + +# 4.5 Applications + +In this section, we showcase the animation applications of the reconstructed results, including expression retargeting and novel-view synthesis. + +Expression retargeting.

We demonstrate the results of the reconstructed facial rig being driven by a performer of a different identity. During a puckering expression, our method synthesizes distinct lip shapes between individuals (fourth column), and during a grimace, we observe person-specific nasolabial folds (third column). Expression-related nasolabial folds are properly deactivated when the skin is relaxed (fourth column). Our facial rig includes complete teeth that can be properly driven (second and fourth column). Due to limited observations, our teeth do not receive vertex deformation. However, constraints on the teeth are considered during optimization to ensure compatibility with lip movements. This ensures that even when updating the expression basis for lip movements, there is no penetration with the teeth. + +Usage in Blender. The blendshapes we generate are readily importable into Blender [17] for animation as shown in Fig. 8, where sliders are used for expression adjustments. + +Novel-view synthesis. We demonstrate that our method can synthesize photo-realistic novel views, as shown in Fig. 9. Our method can accurately reconstruct the geometry and appearance of ears from sparse multi-view inputs, ensuring effective novel-view generalization for ear appearance and synthesizing high-quality ears (third column). Deferred rendering MLP is suitable for synthesizing photo-realistic facial appearance but cannot be directly imported into current animation software. Making deferred rendering MLP compatible with animation pipelines is a direction for future work. Recent efforts, such as those + +presented in [4, 16, 48], are working towards achieving this goal. Our method relies on fast mesh-based rasterization and deferred neural rendering, enabling real-time animation and novel-view synthesis. + +# 5 Limitations + +We aim to reconstruct personalized facial blendshapes from videos, enabling accurate surface geometry. However, surface geometry is suitable for modeling the skin but not ideal for modeling fine volumetric details like hair. In the animation pipeline, the focus is primarily on modeling the movement of facial muscles. + +Since hair is not in the region of muscle movement, its impact on animation is relatively small. However, future work could explore adopting a hybrid representation that uses different geometric forms to express facial skin and hair. This approach could lead to higher-quality rendering of face avatars. Our method optimizes per-frame head poses, while camera intrinsics and extrinsics are calibrated using a checkerboard pattern once before the capture. Recent works such as [44, 58] hold the potential to integrate with our method to achieve joint estimation of camera parameters. Our method can personalize template + +blendshapes. However, the ICT model [38] used in the experiment does not have a blendshape for the tongue. Future work could involve testing blendshapes or designing a separate motion approach for the tongue. + +![](images/748c4d563c4a60629168dc17ff55960a348ce6c6da3ec75c3462c96ff14a1f17.jpg) +Training View + +![](images/19220f476cbccb26a0ae5b9f0bdc8cfab0517436fbf30713091a6a7e19a57b51.jpg) +Novel Views + +![](images/1e99ae1f3eb1edaf50beb25d3400ceed5ef279100082ef4f0654a7b41bd56180.jpg) +Fig. 9: Results of novel view synthesis for an input frame of our method. + +![](images/4350dca90f312b65f09a88c99de6590ded2492b7708f62a068e2d712139d5295.jpg) + +# 6 Conclusion + +We propose to reconstruct personalized blendshapes from RGB videos via neural inverse rendering, effectively addressing the gap between traditional animation pipelines and cutting-edge neural inverse rendering techniques. Leveraging a blendshape rig representation for dynamic facial modeling, we introduce a joint optimization process that refines the rig with per-vertex deformation schemes. This ensures seamless compatibility with animation pipelines and precise alignment with facial performances in RGB videos. Our contributions extend to an efficient inverse rendering framework that integrates neural shading with blendshapes, enabling the reconstruction of animation-ready facial rigs under diverse lighting and materials. A novel blendshape deformation technique, incorporating differential coordinates augmented with tetrahedral connections and semantic regularization, is introduced to enhance the expressiveness and adherence to volumetric Laplacian regularization. Experiments showcase the effectiveness of our approach in obtaining high-quality, animation-ready facial rigs from single or sparse multi-view videos, underscoring its accuracy and animation applicability. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work was supported by the National Key R&D Program of China (2023YFC3305600), the NSFC (No.62021002), and the Key Research and Development Project of Tibet Autonomous Region (XZ202101ZY0019G).

Mesh-based facial blendshapes have been widely used in animation pipelines, while recent advancements in neural geometry and appearance representations have enabled high-quality inverse rendering. Building upon these observations, we introduce a novel technique that reconstructs mesh-based blendshape rigs from single or sparse multi-view videos, leveraging state-of-the-art neural inverse rendering. We begin by constructing a deformation representation that parameterizes vertex displacements into differential coordinates with tetrahedral connections, allowing for high-quality vertex deformation on high-resolution meshes. By constructing a set of semantic regulations in this representation, we achieve joint optimization of blendshapes and expression coefficients. Furthermore, to enable a user-friendly multi-view setup with unsynchronized cameras, we use a neural regressor to model time-varying motion parameters. Experiments demonstrate that, with the flexible input of single or sparse multi-view videos, we reconstruct personalized high-fidelity blendshapes. These blendshapes are both geometrically and semantically accurate, and they are compatible with industrial animation pipelines.

In addition to detecting facial landmarks from RGB inputs to fit facial statistical models [11, 12, 57], differentiable rendering [29] can improve the reconstruction fidelity by harnessing dense pixel observations. However, overly-simplified rendering models cause under-fitting of facial material and arbitrary lighting, thereby negatively impacting the shape reconstruction quality. With the recent advancements in neural inverse rendering [41, 55], techniques like neural facial avatars [4, 21, 27, 72-74] can generate realistic animatable avatars from common RGB recordings. However, these techniques do not rely on high-quality topology-consistent mesh representation and thus are not compatible with the industrial animation pipeline, impacting their practical utility. To bridge the gap between realistic modeling and compatibility with current animation pipelines using easy recording setups, we, on one hand, represent dynamic facial modeling as a blendshape rig [34], consisting of topology-consistent facial meshes for various expressions. On the other hand, we optimize the blendshape with novel per-vertex deformation schemes to precisely match the generated animation to the facial performance in RGB videos (inverse rendering).

Secondly, there is an ambiguity in optimizing either expression bases or coefficients to fit users' arbitrary facial performance, and prior methods [4,21,27,72,74] typically circumvent this by excluding expression coefficients from the optimization (estimating them through a pre-processing step [57]) thus only reaching local optima.

To achieve higher degrees of personalization from more observations, some works [35] take input from multiple scans with predefined expressions, while some [28] require users to make specific key expressions during the capture process. Efforts on exploring more user-friendly capture procedures [6, 25, 36, 62] focus on utilizing performance sequences where users make arbitrary facial expressions to generate expression blendshapes. Updating blendshapes requires careful design to avoid mesh non-smoothness, thus techniques such as reduced subspace [6] and corrective shapes [25, 36] are employed to constrain deformations. To resolve the ambiguity between expression bases and expression coefficients, semantic emotion priors are proposed to constrain expressions [62]. Some deep-learning-based methods [14, 54] propose an end-to-end framework that learns a personalized face model from a corpus of in-the-wild videos.

explicit shape representation. PointAvatar [73] claims to achieve comparable geometry reconstruction with [72]. Works such as [2, 21, 23, 69, 74] achieve high-quality rendering, but their density-based representations are not suitable for direct comparisons. We also compare our method with HRN [33], which is trained on large-scale in-the-wild images for accurate face reconstruction and can accept multi-view image inputs. We modified the baselines so that all methods use input from four views. As shown in Table 1, our method surpasses other methods in point-to-plane errors on both datasets. Lower errors are also evident in the visualized heatmaps in Fig. 3, where we achieve more accurate reconstruction, especially in the forehead and nose regions. In Fig. 4, a qualitative comparison of the reconstruction results for identity and expression-specific facial details is presented. In the first row, our method reconstructs a more personalized puckering expression. In the second row, our method successfully reconstructs the aquiline nose, which is a distinctive geometric feature specific to the input identity." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 18 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 585, + 238, + 597 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 585, + 238, + 597 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 585, + 238, + 597 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "4.4 Ablation Study" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 19 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 605, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 605, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 605, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "To test the necessity of the blendshape deformation representation in preserving the mesh's desirable properties, we present geometric reconstruction results under different settings.

Novel view synthesis has achieved remarkable quality and efficiency by the paradigm of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS), but still faces two challenges: 1) significant performance degradation when trained with only few-shot samples due to a lack of geometry constraint, and 2) incapability of rendering at a higher resolution that is beyond the input resolution of training samples. In this paper, we propose Dual-Lens 3D-GS (DL-GS) to achieve high-resolution (HR) and few-shot view synthesis, by leveraging the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system commonly equipped on mobile devices. This kind of system captures the same scene with different focal lengths (i.e., wide-angle and telephoto) under an asymmetric stereo configuration, which naturally provides geometric hints for few-shot training and HR guidance for resolution improvement. Nevertheless, there remain two major technical problems to achieving this goal. First, how to effectively exploit the geometry information from the asymmetric stereo configuration? To this end, we propose a consistency-aware training strategy, which integrates a dual-lens-consistent loss to regularize the 3D-GS optimization. Second, how to make the best use of the dual-lens training samples to effectively improve the resolution of newly synthesized views? To this end, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module to select proper telephoto and wide-angle guided images from training samples based on the camera pose distances, and then exploit their information for high-frequency detail enhancement. Extensive experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets validate the distinct superiority of our DL-GS over various competitors on the task of HR and few-shot view synthesis.

Neural Radiance Field (NeRF)-based methods [2,2,3,30] have made great success on this task, using the implicit radiance field for high-fidelity rendering.

However, the former tends to be too sparse while the latter could be inconsistent within multiple views due to the inherent ambiguity of monocular depth estimation [4, 5]. As for the second challenge, existing methods adopt the idea of super-resolution (SR) to recover the high-frequency details of synthesized views [49, 58] or introduce additional high-resolution (HR) images as references to enhance details [18].

Novel view synthesis has achieved remarkable quality and efficiency by the paradigm of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS), but still faces two challenges: 1) significant performance degradation when trained with only few-shot samples due to a lack of geometry constraint, and 2) incapability of rendering at a higher resolution that is beyond the input resolution of training samples. In this paper, we propose Dual-Lens 3D-GS (DL-GS) to achieve high-resolution (HR) and few-shot view synthesis, by leveraging the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system commonly equipped on mobile devices. This kind of system captures the same scene with different focal lengths (i.e., wide-angle and telephoto) under an asymmetric stereo configuration, which naturally provides geometric hints for few-shot training and HR guidance for resolution improvement. Nevertheless, there remain two major technical problems to achieving this goal. First, how to effectively exploit the geometry information from the asymmetric stereo configuration? To this end, we propose a consistency-aware training strategy, which integrates a dual-lens-consistent loss to regularize the 3D-GS optimization. Second, how to make the best use of the dual-lens training samples to effectively improve the resolution of newly synthesized views? To this end, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module to select proper telephoto and wide-angle guided images from training samples based on the camera pose distances, and then exploit their information for high-frequency detail enhancement. Extensive experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets validate the distinct superiority of our DL-GS over various competitors on the task of HR and few-shot view synthesis.

However, the former tends to be too sparse while the latter could be inconsistent within multiple views due to the inherent ambiguity of monocular depth estimation [4, 5]. As for the second challenge, existing methods adopt the idea of super-resolution (SR) to recover the high-frequency details of synthesized views [49, 58] or introduce additional high-resolution (HR) images as references to enhance details [18].

To investigate the effectiveness of the pre-upsampling and regularization terms \\((\\mathcal{R}_c\\) and \\(\\mathcal{R}_d)\\) in our consistency-aware training strategy, we conduct an ablation study on the simulated dataset with different training sample numbers. Specifically, we take vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed by HAT [9] as the baseline method. The results are presented in the top part of Table 4. It can be seen that the evaluation metrics gradually increase by adding the three components to the processing of 3D-GS optimization, which demonstrates that they are effective in performance improvement, especially for the few-shot training." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.215, + 0.45, + 0.788, + 0.572 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Components of Multi-reference-guided Refinement.

Specifically, we design a consistency-aware training strategy to explore the geometric information inherent in the dual-lens system for facilitating the few-shot training. After that, we propose a multi-reference-guided refinement module to enhance the details of newly synthesized views by effectively exploiting the guidance information of the dual-lens training samples. Experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets demonstrate the superiority of DL-GS over various solutions. Experimental results also show the effectiveness and potential of leveraging the characteristics of the dual-lens system for high-quality view synthesis. We believe that this paradigm can address other challenging cases in NVS, e.g., focus control using the different depth-of-field of two lenses." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.215, + 0.81, + 0.787, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Acknowledgments.

Novel view synthesis has achieved remarkable quality and efficiency by the paradigm of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS), but still faces two challenges: 1) significant performance degradation when trained with only few-shot samples due to a lack of geometry constraint, and 2) incapability of rendering at a higher resolution that is beyond the input resolution of training samples. In this paper, we propose Dual-Lens 3D-GS (DL-GS) to achieve high-resolution (HR) and few-shot view synthesis, by leveraging the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system commonly equipped on mobile devices. This kind of system captures the same scene with different focal lengths (i.e., wide-angle and telephoto) under an asymmetric stereo configuration, which naturally provides geometric hints for few-shot training and HR guidance for resolution improvement. Nevertheless, there remain two major technical problems to achieving this goal. First, how to effectively exploit the geometry information from the asymmetric stereo configuration? To this end, we propose a consistency-aware training strategy, which integrates a dual-lens-consistent loss to regularize the 3D-GS optimization. Second, how to make the best use of the dual-lens training samples to effectively improve the resolution of newly synthesized views? To this end, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module to select proper telephoto and wide-angle guided images from training samples based on the camera pose distances, and then exploit their information for high-frequency detail enhancement. Extensive experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets validate the distinct superiority of our DL-GS over various competitors on the task of HR and few-shot view synthesis. The implementation code is available at https://github.com/XrKang/DL-GS. + +Keywords: Novel View Synthesis $\cdot$ 3D Gaussian Splatting $\cdot$ Asymmetric Dual-lens System $\cdot$ Few-shot Training $\cdot$ Super-resolution + +# 1 Introduction + +Novel view synthesis (NVS) aims to generate images at arbitrary viewpoints of a 3D scene, which is a fundamental task in computer vision and finds widespread applications in mobile scenarios [6,11,26], such as virtual/augmented reality [14, 36] and immersive telepresence [15, 35]. Neural Radiance Field (NeRF)-based methods [2,2,3,30] have made great success on this task, using the implicit radiance field for high-fidelity rendering. However, the high training and rendering costs of NeRF-based methods limit their applications [17,32,59]. To achieve + +![](images/ea13231f1e5368e026871e2cf536395b01bafe8e6cd9cdbf21051890c60e3215.jpg) +Fig. 1: Left: An asymmetric dual-lens system naturally provides geometric information and additional HR details for high-quality rendering. Right: Visual comparison of view synthesis with 5 training samples for $2 \times \mathrm{SR}$ , where 3D-GS [19] and FSGS [65] employ HAT [9] for resolution improvement. NeRF-SR [49] directly synthesizes HR views but fails in this few-shot case. Our method can synthesize HR views with coherent geometry. + +real-time and high-fidelity rendering, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS) [19] has recently emerged as a powerful paradigm, which replaces the implicit radiance field of NeRF with an explicit representation based on 3D Gaussians. Despite achieving effectiveness and efficiency in photo-realistic rendering, two challenges still hinder the practicality of NVS: 1) A large set of training samples is typically required, and performance would significantly drop as the number of samples is reduced [13, 42]. 2) The rendering resolution is dependent on the collected samples, which may not be competent for ultra-high-resolution applications [24, 40]. + +For the first challenge, the few-shot training samples would lead to an incorrect convergence or optimization failure [57, 59] due to insufficient geometric constraints. To tackle this challenge, introducing additional geometric information for regularization is a promising way [12, 13, 48, 55, 65], such as depth from COLMAP [37] or depth from a single view. However, the former tends to be too sparse while the latter could be inconsistent within multiple views due to the inherent ambiguity of monocular depth estimation [4, 5]. As for the second challenge, existing methods adopt the idea of super-resolution (SR) to recover the high-frequency details of synthesized views [49, 58] or introduce additional high-resolution (HR) images as references to enhance details [18]. However, the performance of using SR models tends to be limited due to a lack of direct in-domain guidance, while collecting additional HR reference images could be inconvenient in practice [23, 51]. + +In this paper, we propose a new solution based on 3D-GS, termed DL-GS, which leverages the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system for few-shot view synthesis while overcoming the resolution limitation. Specifically, the dual-lens system is widely equipped on mobile devices (e.g., smartphones), which consists of a wide-angle lens with a short focal length and a telephoto lens with a large focal length, capturing the same scene with different field-of-views (FoVs). As shown in Fig. 1, the characteristics of this kind of system are well-suited to address the aforementioned challenges that obstruct the applications of NVs: 1) Combining the wide-angle and telephoto images forms an asymmetric stereo configuration, which stores the geometric information to facilitate the few-shot + +training. 2) The telephoto images have higher resolution than the wide-angle ones within the overlapped FoV, naturally providing additional HR guidance to improve the resolution of newly synthesized views. + +Nevertheless, there remain two major technical problems to achieving the success of DL-GS. At first, exploiting the geometric information from the asymmetric stereo configuration is non-trivial, since different focal lengths make explicit disparity estimation difficult. To this end, we design a consistency-aware training strategy to implicitly exploit the geometry information. Specifically, we first pre-upsample the wide-angle images to match the resolution of the telephoto images within the overlapped FoV. This processing also offers better 3D Gaussians initialization due to inputting a denser point cloud. Then, we propose a dual-lens-consistent loss to regularize 3D Gaussians optimization by enforcing the view consistency between the rendered wide-angle views and the corresponding telephoto views. Meanwhile, we introduce a depth-wise loss to regularize the non-overlapped area of two lenses, which supervises the distribution difference between the rendered depth and the estimated depth. As such, we can synthesize images with accurate geometric structures even using few-shot training samples. + +The second problem is how to make the best use of the dual-lens training samples to refine the newly synthesized views. Although we can directly synthesize wide-angle views at the target resolution through the pre-upsampling, they still lack realistic high-frequency details. To address this problem, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module, which first selects proper telephoto and wide-angle guided images from training samples based on the distance of camera poses. Then, we exploit the HR guidance from selected telephoto images through similarity-aware attention, while simultaneously utilizing the multi-view information of selected wide-angle images with pixel-wise attention. Notably, the multi-reference-guided refinement is supervised by the self-training scheme without the ground-truth data, making it suitable for practical deployment. + +Based on the above designs to effectively utilize information from the dual-lens system, our DL-GS generates significantly improved view synthesis results over representative competitors, as shown in Fig. 1. To comprehensively evaluate the performance of this new solution for NVs, we build a simulated dataset and a real-captured dataset. For the simulated dataset, we utilize the pseudo stereo pairs from [47] to generate dual-lens image pairs of forward-facing scenes. For the real-captured dataset, we collect a set of dual-lens image pairs of static scenes from different views using an iPhone12, which includes both inward-facing $(360^{\circ})$ and forward-facing scenes. Extensive experiments demonstrate the distinct superiority of our DL-GS over various solutions. + +Contributions of this paper are summarized as follows: + +- We propose a new 3D-GS-based solution for HR and few-shot views synthesis by leveraging the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system. +- We propose a consistency-aware training strategy to exploit the geometric information of dual-lens pairs for regularizing 3D Gaussians optimization. +- We propose a multi-reference-guided refinement module to enhance newly synthesized views by making the best use of dual-lens training samples. + +- Extensive experiments on both simulated and real-captured datasets validate the superiority of our solution over various competitors. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Novel View Synthesis + +With the fast development of NVs, existing works have achieved real-time and photorealistic rendering [2,11,19,32]. However, most methods still require plenty of training samples to render a single scene, while their rendered resolution is constrained by that of training samples, thereby limiting their practical applications. Recently, several methods have been proposed to address either of the two challenges, and here we provide a brief overview of their development. + +Few-shot Novel View Synthesis. Few-shot NVS aims to render a scene with limited training samples [39, 41, 57], and it can be roughly divided into three classes: Existing works for few-shot NVS can be roughly divided into three classes: (a) Early methods utilize a large dataset to train a general model, and then fine-tune the pre-trained model to the target scene, using a few training samples [8, 59]. However, these methods require large efforts to collect accurate and diverse 3D scenes, and might suffer from the domain gap problem [64] between the collected dataset and the target scene. (b) Another category of methods utilizes the geometric or semantic constraints in the appearances of synthesized views [20, 33], but this regularization cannot guarantee the complete 3D geometric reconstruction due to multiple layouts of scenes [50]. (c) Recently methods estimate the depth map (i.e., using COLMAP [37] or monocular depth estimation [13, 42, 50, 55, 65]) to provide additional geometric information for regularization and made promising progress. However, depth maps from COLMAP are too sparse, and those from monocular estimation are inconsistent across multiple views due to inherent ambiguity, thereby limiting their performance. Different from previous methods, the asymmetric dual-lens system naturally stores the geometric information to enhance the few-shot training. + +High-Resolution Novel View Synthesis. Previous methods have explored generating HR views through various strategies, such as super-sampling [49], exploiting external priors from SR models [58], and using additional HR images as references [18]. Despite the remarkable progress achieved, there are still challenges in efficiently acquiring and effectively utilizing high-frequency information, whether from pre-trained SR models or additional HR images. Specifically, the pre-trained SR models only provide high-frequency hints from extra scenes and additional HR reference image collection is typically difficult in practical applications. Moreover, existing works primarily focus on the HR NVS based on the NeRF paradigm, with few efforts to explore 3D-GS. In this paper, we leverage the characteristic of asymmetric dual-lens systems, which naturally introduce HR information for NVS from telephoto images. + +# 2.2 Dual-lens System + +The asymmetric dual-lens system consists of two lenses with different focal lengths to capture the same scene with different FoVs, equipped on most mobile + +devices such as smartphones. This system, also known as the dual-camera/zoomed system, is typically configured with a wide-angle lens and a telephoto lens. Specifically, the wide-angle lens is the main lens with a short focal length and a large FoV, while the telephoto lens has a large focal length and a narrow FoV. In the overlapped FoV, the telephoto lens exhibits higher resolution than the wide-angle lens, opening possibilities for various applications. Existing works exploit the characteristics of this kind of system to address different tasks [1,27,31]. For instance, some works focus on estimating correspondences between the two lenses within the overlapped FoV [10,43,61]. Additionally, dual-lens SR [51,56,60,63] aims to utilize telephoto images as HR guidance to improve the resolution of wide-angle images. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first effort to leverage the asymmetric dual-lens system to address the task of NVS. + +# 3 Preliminaries + +# 3.1 Background: 3D Gaussian Splitting + +3D-GS represents a scene in an explicit paradigm using a set of 3D Gaussians, where each 3D Gaussian is defined by its mean value $\pmb{\mu} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ and covariance matrix $\Sigma \in \mathbb{R}^{3\times 3}$ in the position $\pmb{x} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ in the 3D space, as + +$$ +G (\boldsymbol {x}) = e ^ {\left(- \frac {1}{2} (\boldsymbol {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu}) ^ {T} \Sigma^ {- 1} (\boldsymbol {x} - \boldsymbol {\mu})\right)}. \tag {1} +$$ + +Specifically, $\Sigma$ is defined by a rotation matrix $R$ and a scale matrix $S$ to ensure it is positive semi-definite following the physical constraints, as $\Sigma = RSS^{T}RT^{T}$ . Then, each 3D Gaussian is projected to 2D space for rendering, generating the corresponding 2D Gaussian with covariance matrix $\Sigma^{\prime}\in \mathbb{R}^{2\times 2}$ . Specifically, $\Sigma^{\prime}$ is calculated by the world-to-camera matrix $W$ and the Jacobian $J$ of the affine approximation of perspective projection transformation, as $\Sigma^{\prime} = JW\Sigma W^{T}J^{T}$ . In addition, each Gaussian stores an opacity $o\in \mathbb{R}$ and a view-dependent color $c\in \mathbb{R}^3$ represented by the spherical harmonic coefficients. + +Each pixel color $\pmb{C} \in \mathbb{R}^3$ of the synthesized 2D image $\hat{I}$ can be computed by blending $N$ sequential 2D Gaussians overlapping on the pixel, denoted as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {C} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \boldsymbol {c} _ {i} \alpha_ {i} \prod_ {j = 1} ^ {i - 1} \left(1 - \alpha_ {j}\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\alpha_{i}$ is estimated by its corresponding the opacity and 2D Gaussian, following the principle of point-based rendering [19]. After completing the rendering of all pixels, the 3D Gaussians are optimized by supervising the loss function $\mathcal{L}_{GS}$ , which is calculated by a $\mathcal{L}_1$ regularization combined with a D-SSIM [54] term $\mathcal{L}_{SSIM}$ , denoted as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {G S} = (1 - \lambda) \mathcal {L} _ {1} (I, \hat {I}) + \lambda \mathcal {L} _ {S S I M} (I, \hat {I}), \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\hat{I}$ is the synthesized view and $I$ is the ground-truth data, and $\lambda = 0.2$ . + +# 3.2 Problem Formulation + +Problem 1: Few-shot Training Samples. To represent a scene, vanilla 3D-GS requires a dense set of training samples to optimize the 3D Gaussians [19, 65].

Consistency-aware training is designed to optimize 3D Gaussians with few-shot training samples by elaborated regularization terms. Multi-reference-guided refinement aims to exploit the guidance information from the training sample for enhancing the newly synthesized views, overcoming the resolution limitation. + +users. The performance will significantly drop when the number of samples is reduced to a few $(\leq 20)$ , since the lack of geometric constraints would lead the model to optimization failure or overfit on limited data [33,42,59]. To overcome this problem, an alternative way is incorporating the additional geometric information for regularization in the optimization process [13,50,65]. In this paper, we leverage the inherent geometric information from the dual-lens system as regularization to facilitate the few-shot training. + +Problem 2: Resolution Limitation. To obtain the 3D representation, vanilla 3D-GS is optimized by the image-level reconstruction loss as Eq. 3. This form of supervision constrains the resolution of synthesized views to the same as that of the training samples, which may not be competent for ultra-high-resolution applications [24,40]. An effective formulation to address this problem is introducing additional HR guidance to reconstruct the synthesized views [18, 23, 49, 51]. In this paper, we select guided images from dual-lens training samples, and then exploit their information to reconstruct the synthesized views. + +# 4 Dual-lens Gaussian Splitting + +# 4.1 Motivation and Overview + +We propose a new solution based on 3D-GS, termed DL-GS, which leverages the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system to achieve few-shot view synthesis while exceeding the resolution limitation of training samples. It consists of two key components: a consistency-aware training strategy to regularize the 3D-GS optimization, and a multi-reference-guided refinement module to reconstruct the newly synthesized views. The overview pipeline of DL-GS is in Fig. 2. + +Given a set of wide-angle images $\{I_i\}_{i=1}^M$ along with their corresponding telephoto images $\{T_i\}_{i=1}^M$ ( $M$ is the number of training samples), we first optimize 3D-GS by our consistency-aware training strategy to address the few-shot training. Specifically, our training strategy utilizes the inherent geometric information of the dual-lens system as regularization for few-shot training. However, exploiting the geometric information is challenging, since the different focal lengths of the two lenses result in the stereo configuration exhibiting resolution asymmetry and being limited to the overlapped FoV area. To address this challenge, our proposed training strategy optimizes 3D-GS by introducing dual-lens-consistent and depth-wise losses. Further details are provided in Sec. 4.2. + +After the 3D-GS optimization, we can synthesize a new wide-angle view $\hat{I}$ at the target resolution through pre-upsampling, but it still lacks high-frequency details. Therefore, the multi-reference-guided refinement module is proposed to reconstruct the details of $\hat{I}$ . Specifically, it first selects telephoto and wide-angle guided images from the training samples $\{\{I_i\}_{i=1}^M, \{T_i\}_{i=1}^M\}$ , then exploits their information to generate the final results $\hat{I}^{rec}$ . The module is supervised in a self-training scheme without requiring ground-truth data, advancing it to practical deployment. We provide a detailed illustration of the module in Sec. 4.3. + +# 4.2 Consistency-aware Training Strategy + +Two lenses of the dual-lens system can form a stereo configuration, which offers geometric information to serve as the regularization for the few-shot training. However, the wide-angle and telephoto lenses have different focal lengths, hence, the stereo configuration is resolution asymmetry and is limited to the overlapped FoV area. As a result, explicit disparity estimation is difficult. To address this challenge, we propose a consistency-aware training strategy to optimize 3D-GS by implicitly leveraging the geometric constraint of the two lenses. + +Pre-upsampling. We first pre-upsample the wide-angle images to address the problem of resolution asymmetry. Given a set of wide-angle images $\{I_i\}_{i=1}^M$ , we utilize a pre-trained single image SR (SISR) network [9] to generate HR counterparts $\{I_i^\uparrow\}_{i=1}^M$ . As a result, the wide-angle and telephoto images are resolution-matching within the overlapped FoV area, facilitating subsequent utilization of geometric information. Meanwhile, the pre-upsampling processing also provides a better 3D Gaussians initialization, since the inputting point cloud is denser and more accurate, as shown in Fig. 3. + +Dual-lens-consistent loss. Due to the different focal lengths of the two lenses, explicit disparity estimation cannot be employed to utilize their geometric information directly. Therefore, we propose a dual-lens-consistent loss to implicitly exploit the geometric information, which serves as a regularization term for the 3D-GS optimization. The proposed loss aims to enforce the view consistency between the newly synthesized wide-angle view $\hat{I}$ and the corresponding telephoto image $T\in \{T_i\}_{i = 1}^M$ , denoted as + +$$ +\mathcal {R} _ {c} = V \left\| \operatorname {W a r p} _ {c} (\hat {I}) - T \right\| _ {1}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\mathrm{Warp}_c(\cdot)$ represents the warping operation for the center area of $\hat{I}$ using the corresponding optical flow from the target image $I^{\uparrow}$ . $V$ is the visibility mask of two views [21]. We employ a pre-trained estimator (e.g., RAFT [45]) for efficient optical flow computation. Specifically, the estimated optical flow is the correspondence of the two lenses with different focal lengths, served as a coarse disparity without stereo-calibration [16, 22]. Hence, the dual-lens-consistent loss can implicitly exploit geometric information to facilitate the few-shot training, avoiding additional capture efforts on dual-lens devices. + +Depth-wise loss. We further introduce a depth-wise loss as another regularization term to supervise the non-overlapped FoV area of two lenses. Specifically, we obtain the depth $D$ from the image $I^{\uparrow} \in \{I_i^\uparrow\}_{i=1}^M$ using a pre-trained monocular depth estimator [34], and render the depth $Z$ from 3D-GS using a + +![](images/e9ced3f1fd0172b234899698781e934289ae670b4b70ef321febcdc22f2388e8.jpg) +(a) w/o Pre-upsampling + +![](images/d1f57cc1447367b0439c13c7ddeccf719d8e7050771d46e0077379c26411e927.jpg) +(b) w/ Pre-upsampling +Fig. 3: Comparison on inputting point clouds.

To mitigate the scale ambiguity caused by monocular depth estimation, we utilize Pearson correlation [38] to construct the depth-wise loss, which minimizes the normalized distribution difference between $Z$ and $D$ rather than the absolute error, as + +$$ +\mathcal {R} _ {d} = \frac {\operatorname {C o v} (Z , D)}{\sqrt {\operatorname {V a r} (Z)} \sqrt {\operatorname {V a r} (D)}}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mathrm{Cov}(\cdot ,\cdot)$ and $\mathrm{Var}(\cdot)$ represent the covariance and variance, respectively. + +The overall loss function of our training strategy is formulated as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} = \mathcal {L} _ {G S} (\hat {I}, I ^ {\uparrow}) + \beta_ {1} \mathcal {R} _ {c} + \beta_ {2} \mathcal {R} _ {d}, \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\beta_{1}$ and $\beta_{2}$ are the weighting factors. The effectiveness of each regularization term is validated in Sec. 7. + +# 4.3 Multi-reference-guided Refinement + +After 3D-GS optimization, we can directly synthesize wide-angle views at the target resolution through pre-upsampling, but they still lack realistic high-frequency details due to the resolution limitation. To address this problem, we select guided images from dual-lens training samples to refine the newly synthesized view, given that the corresponding telephoto image is unavailable. To this end, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module, consisting of the pose-aware image selection and the multi-reference information transfer. Specifically, the selection part selects guided images from the dual-lens training samples based on the camera pose distances. The transfer part exploits HR and multi-view information from the guided images to enhance the synthesized view through dedicated attention mechanisms. The flow diagram is depicted in Fig. 4. + +Pose-aware image selection. We first select guided images from the training samples to enhance the newly synthesized view $\hat{I}$ . Specifically, we calculate the camera pose distance between different views as $\mathrm{Dis}_{\text{pose}} = \| \mathcal{P}_i - \mathcal{P} \|_2$ , where $\{\mathcal{P}_i\}_{i=1}^M$ are the camera poses of wide-angle images $\{I_i^\uparrow\}_{i=1}^M$ and $\mathcal{P}$ represents the camera pose of the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ . Based on this criterion, we can identify the two nearest wide-angle/telephoto pairs $(I_j^\uparrow, T_j)$ and $(I_k^\uparrow, T_k)$ to the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ , where $j \neq k \in [1, M]$ . + +Multi-reference information transfer. After image selection, we transfer HR information from the selected telephoto images and multi-view information from the selected wide-angle images to enhance the details of synthesized views. + +![](images/31244f976e7f74f4f8c4d62cd027b133fe388b5951c864ff6a9b971e816b9ae3.jpg) +Fig. 4: Pipeline of multi-reference-guided refinement. It first selects the guided images from the dual-lens training samples based on the camera pose distances, then exploits their information by similarity-wise attention and pixel-wise attention mechanisms. + +Specifically, we propose a similarity-aware attention mechanism to exploit the HR information from the two nearest telephoto images $(T_{j}, T_{k})$ . Here, we take the processing of $T_{j}$ as an illustration. We first map $T_{j}$ and $\hat{I}$ to an embedding space for efficient and robust similarity calculation. Then, we unfold the embedded features to a set of patches, and calculate the cosine similarity $r_{n,m}$ between the $n$ -th patch of embedded $T_{j}$ and the $m$ -th patch of embedded $\hat{I}$ . Based on the similarity, we can obtain the index map $H$ to select similar patches from the original $T_{j}$ , and calculate the similarity-wise attention map $S$ to weight the selected patches, denoted as + +$$ +h _ {n} = \underset {m} {\operatorname {a r g m a x}} r _ {n, m}, \quad s _ {n} = \underset {m} {\operatorname {m a x}} r _ {n, m}, \tag {7} +$$ + +where $h_n$ is the $n$ -th element of $H$ , representing the index of the most similar patch in the telephoto image $T_j$ to the $m$ -th patch in the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ . $s_n$ is the $n$ -th element of $S$ , representing the corresponding confidence of the selected patch. These two matrices ( $H$ and $S$ ) model the correspondence between the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ and the neighbor telephoto image $T_j$ . + +Once obtained $H$ and $S$ , we utilize them to transfer the HR information from $T_{j}$ to $\hat{I}$ , and generate a pseudo telephoto image $\bar{T}_{j}$ as + +$$ +\bar {T} _ {j} = \operatorname {I n d e x} \left(T _ {j}, H\right) \odot S, \tag {8} +$$ + +where $\operatorname{Index}(\cdot, \cdot)$ and $\odot$ represent index selection and element-wise multiplication, respectively. The other telephoto image $T_{k}$ also performs the same operation to generate the pseudo telephoto image $\bar{T}_{k}$ . As a result, both pseudo telephoto images, $\bar{T}_{j}$ and $\bar{T}_{k}$ , provide HR information spatially aligned with the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ for the final adaptive fusion (see Fig. 4). + +Meanwhile, inspired by multi-frame reconstruction [7, 23, 53], we propose to exploit multi-view information from selected wide-angle images $(I_j^\uparrow, I_k^\uparrow)$ . Specifically, we first introduce the deformable convolution [46, 52] to align $(I_j^\uparrow, I_k^\uparrow)$ toward the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ . Then, we utilize pixel-wise attention to leverage their information to generate the pseudo wide-angle images $(\bar{I}_j^\uparrow, \bar{I}_k^\uparrow)$ as + +$$ +\left(\bar {I} _ {j} ^ {\uparrow}, \bar {I} _ {k} ^ {\uparrow}\right) = \operatorname {v a l u e} \odot \operatorname {S i g m o i d} (\text {q u e r y} \odot \text {k e y}), \tag {9} +$$ + +where $key$ and $value$ are mapped from the selected image $(I_j^\uparrow, I_k^\uparrow)$ , and query is mapped from the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ . The sigmoid function $\operatorname{Sigmoid}(\cdot)$ is used to stabilize gradient back-propagation. In this way, the pseudo wide-angle im + +ages $(\bar{I}_j^\uparrow, \bar{I}_k^\uparrow)$ contain the multi-view information transferred from other views, facilitating the final adaptive fusion. + +Finally, the final reconstructed image $\hat{I}^{rec}$ is generated by fusing the information from pseudo telephoto images $(\bar{T}_j,\bar{T}_k)$ and pseudo wide-angle images $(\bar{I}_j^\dagger ,\bar{I}_k^\dagger)$ with the synthesized view $\hat{I}$ , as shown in Fig. 4. Benefiting from the effectiveness of the proposed multi-reference information transfer, the final adaptive fusion only requires several convolution layers to achieve a promising performance. + +Since ground-truth data is inaccessible in practical development, we propose a self-training loss to optimize the module, denoted as + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {D L} = \lambda_ {1} \| \operatorname {C r o p} \left(\hat {I} ^ {r e c}\right) - T ^ {\text {a l i g n}} \| _ {2} + \lambda_ {2} \| \hat {I} ^ {r e c} - I ^ {\uparrow} \| _ {2} + \lambda_ {3} \mathcal {L} _ {c x} \left(\operatorname {C r o p} \left(\hat {I} ^ {r e c}\right), T\right). \tag {10} +$$ + +Specifically, the first term leverages HR information from the spatially aligned image $T^{align}$ , which is pre-aligned from $T \in \{T_i\}_{i=1}^M$ using optical flow estimation. $\mathrm{Crop}(\cdot)$ denotes the cropping operation to obtain the overlapped FoV area of two lenses. The second term provides an essential content constraint using the pre-upsampled image $I^{\uparrow} \in \{I_i^\uparrow\}_{i=1}^M$ . The third term directly minimizes differences between $\hat{I}^{rec}$ and the un-aligned telephoto image $T \in \{T_i\}_{i=1}^M$ , since the contextual loss $\mathcal{L}_{cx}$ [28, 29] measures the similarity without considering the spatial positions. It is worth noting that, all the images in Eq. 10 are divided into patches for efficient training while full-size images are used during inference. + +# 5 Experiments on Simulated Data + +# 5.1 Dataset + +We utilize the pseudo stereo image pairs from [47] to simulate dual-lens image pairs. Specifically, scenes in [47] comprise 100 images captured from various viewpoints, and then these images are used to train a NeRF-based method for rendering stereo image pairs. We randomly choose 8 forward-facing scenes. We downsample the left images with a scale factor of $2 \times$ to severe as the wide-angle images, while cropping the central area of the right images to obtain the telephoto images. The original left images are preserved as the ground-truth data for evaluation purposes. For each scene, we select every 10-th image as the test set, while we sample $10 / 20 / 90$ shots from the remaining images for training. + +# 5.2 Implementation Details and Baselines + +All components of DL-GS are implemented by using PyTorch 2.1. For optimizing the 3D Gaussians with our training strategy, we initialize the camera poses and point clouds by COLMAP [37]. The weight factors $\beta_{1}$ and $\beta_{2}$ are both set to 0.05 for calculating the loss $\mathcal{L}$ . For training the multi-reference-guided refinement, we set $\lambda_{1} = 0.8$ , $\lambda_{2} = 0.5$ , and $\lambda_{3} = 0.05$ for calculating the loss $\mathcal{L}_{DL}$ . We crop image patches with the size of $160 \times 160$ , and the mini-batch size is set to 16. + +To verify the superiority of DL-GS, we compare it with several representative methods including four categories: 1) vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed with SISR: Bicubic, SwinIR [25], HAT [9]; 2) vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed with dual-lens SR: DCSR [51]; 3) HR NVS method: NeRF-SR [49]; 4) few-shot NVS methods followed with HAT [9]: DS-NeRF [13], RegNeRF [33], SparseNeRF [50], FSGS [65]. + +Table 1: Quantitative comparison with previous state-of-the-art methods on our simulated dataset with different training sample numbers and a scale factor of $2 \times$ .

For the cases of few-shot training (10/20-shot), vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed with SR methods show limited performance due to lacking regularization in the training process. The same reason also constrains the capability of NeRF-SR [49]. Vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed with dual-lens SR outperforms that followed with SISR in the dense training case, since using the HR guidance for resolution improvement. The performance of few-shot methods (e.g., SparseNeRF [50] and FSGS [65]) followed with HAT [9] is limited due to lacking the guidance information. It can be seen that our method shows superior performance over the previous methods by leveraging the characteristics of the dual-lens system. + +We also compare the training and rendering times of different methods in Table 2, where $3\mathrm{D - GS}^{*}$ [19], $DS - NeRF^{*}$ [13], $RegNeRF^{*}$ [33], $SparseNeRF^{*}$ [50] and $FSGS^{*}$ [65] represent these methods employ HAT [9] for SR. Specifically, the image size is $1160 \times 522$ and the rendering time is measured for a single image.

+ +# 7 Ablation Study + +Components of Consistency-aware Training Strategy. To investigate the effectiveness of the pre-upsampling and regularization terms $(\mathcal{R}_c$ and $\mathcal{R}_d)$ in our consistency-aware training strategy, we conduct an ablation study on the simulated dataset with different training sample numbers. Specifically, we take vanilla 3D-GS [19] followed by HAT [9] as the baseline method. The results are presented in the top part of Table 4. It can be seen that the evaluation metrics gradually increase by adding the three components to the processing of 3D-GS optimization, which demonstrates that they are effective in performance improvement, especially for the few-shot training. + +Components of Multi-reference-guided Refinement. We also investigate the effectiveness of two branches in the multi-reference-guided refinement module (i.e., the branch of wide-angle images $(I_j^\uparrow, I_k^\uparrow)$ and the branch of telephoto images $(T_j, T_k)$ ). As can be seen at the bottom of Table 4, the evaluation metrics increase as incorporating the two branches for different training sample numbers. The results indicate that the two branches both are important for reconstruction fidelity improvement. We also provide ablations of its loss function terms and selected image numbers in the supplement. + +# 8 Conclusion + +In this paper, we propose DL-GS, a new 3G-GS solution to leverage the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system for few-shot view synthesis while overcoming the resolution limitation of training samples. Specifically, we design a consistency-aware training strategy to explore the geometric information inherent in the dual-lens system for facilitating the few-shot training. After that, we propose a multi-reference-guided refinement module to enhance the details of newly synthesized views by effectively exploiting the guidance information of the dual-lens training samples. Experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets demonstrate the superiority of DL-GS over various solutions. Experimental results also show the effectiveness and potential of leveraging the characteristics of the dual-lens system for high-quality view synthesis. We believe that this paradigm can address other challenging cases in NVS, e.g., focus control using the different depth-of-field of two lenses. + +Acknowledgments.

Novel view synthesis has achieved remarkable quality and efficiency by the paradigm of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS), but still faces two challenges: 1) significant performance degradation when trained with only few-shot samples due to a lack of geometry constraint, and 2) incapability of rendering at a higher resolution that is beyond the input resolution of training samples. In this paper, we propose Dual-Lens 3D-GS (DL-GS) to achieve high-resolution (HR) and few-shot view synthesis, by leveraging the characteristics of the asymmetric dual-lens system commonly equipped on mobile devices. This kind of system captures the same scene with different focal lengths (i.e., wide-angle and telephoto) under an asymmetric stereo configuration, which naturally provides geometric hints for few-shot training and HR guidance for resolution improvement. Nevertheless, there remain two major technical problems to achieving this goal. First, how to effectively exploit the geometry information from the asymmetric stereo configuration? To this end, we propose a consistency-aware training strategy, which integrates a dual-lens-consistent loss to regularize the 3D-GS optimization. Second, how to make the best use of the dual-lens training samples to effectively improve the resolution of newly synthesized views? To this end, we design a multi-reference-guided refinement module to select proper telephoto and wide-angle guided images from training samples based on the camera pose distances, and then exploit their information for high-frequency detail enhancement. Extensive experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets validate the distinct superiority of our DL-GS over various competitors on the task of HR and few-shot view synthesis.

Specifically, our training strategy utilizes the inherent geometric information of the dual-lens system as regularization for few-shot training.

After that, we propose a multi-reference-guided refinement module to enhance the details of newly synthesized views by effectively exploiting the guidance information of the dual-lens training samples. Experiments on simulated and real-captured datasets demonstrate the superiority of DL-GS over various solutions. Experimental results also show the effectiveness and potential of leveraging the characteristics of the dual-lens system for high-quality view synthesis.

Holography enables intriguing microscopic imaging modalities, particularly through Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI), which utilizes the phase of coherent light as a way to reveal the contrast in transparent and thin microscopic specimens. Despite the limitation of image sensors, which detect only light intensity, phase information can still be recorded within a two-dimensional interference pattern between two distinct light waves. Numerical reconstruction is later needed to retrieve the amplitude and phase from such holographic measurements. To this end, we introduce HoloADMM, a novel interpretable, learning-based approach for in-line holographic image reconstruction. HoloADMM enhances imaging capability with spatial image super-resolution, offering a versatile framework that accommodates multiple illumination wavelengths and supports extensive refocusing ranges with up to $10\\mu \\mathrm{m}$ precision.

The ability to capture phase information allows for interesting applications such as phase imaging in microscopy [24], where it allows to generate image contrast for transparent ultra-thin microscopic specimens. Advancements in phase imaging have facilitated close-up non-invasive inspection of living cells [28], with applications in medicine [29], biology [20], and neuroscience [8]. Highly accurate interferometry, driven by holographic imaging, finds applications in high-precision engineering [36] and material science. Phase contrast microscopy [2] also offers phase imaging capability but lacks quantitative measurement ability. In contrast, holography is able to quantify exactly the light phase shift making it suitable for applications requiring precise measurements, such as accurate tolerance estimations of microscopic features and three-dimensional object reconstruction [41], additionally, in-line holographic setups can be used in compact, mobile, and lensless imaging systems free of any optical aberrations. Despite its desirable features, in-line holography typically requires iterative numerical reconstruction [14] to retrieve high-quality images and to suppress undesirable artifacts, such as the twin image [39], which corresponds to the latent field's complex conjugate recorded as a byproduct by the image sensor and appears as an out-of-focus, blurry image superimposed onto the true sharp one.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 368, + 787, + 700 + ], + "page_idx": 1 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of learning-based methods in tackling holographic reconstruction, both in supervised [3,4,31] and unsupervised [19] manners and to suppress, to some degree, the twin image artifacts.

Gerchberg and Saxton [14] first proposed an alternating field projections approach between the object and detector planes while enforcing support constraints. With sufficient number of iterations the field typically converges towards the latent one. Fienup [10] later introduced modifications to the original method of [14] notably the Hybrid Input Output (HIO) variant which incorporates a feedback parameter to relax the hard support constraint on the object plane. Indeed, it can be shown that such error reduction approaches are special cases of an inverse problem solving framework [25] prone to local minima and in some cases divergence. Fienup's modification helps avoid possible stagnation and further regularizes the solution space, it has been widely used in the literature and it serves as a baseline method, with variants using single or multiple input holograms captured at different heights referred to as \"SH-PR\" or \"MH-PR\", respectively. Iterative methods leveraging prior knowledge of the target sample, such as sparsity [1,9,39], have demonstrated the ability to produce cleaner images by enforcing such constraints. Moreover, iterative solvers help mitigate the undesirable artifacts of the twin image, as demonstrated in previous studies. For instance, Zhang et al.

Networks trained using pairs of holographic images and sharp ground truth data learn a direct mapping between the two sets, circumventing the need to model the underlying physics of holographic image formation. Once trained successfully, these methods can produce twin image-free and sharp reconstructions. However, this straightforward black box approach may encounter unexpected failure cases when presented with new data exhibiting different statistics than that seen during training. Recent work by Chen et al. [3,4] demonstrated promising model transferability by training a network based on Fourier operators [23] using real data from a specific biological tissue type and testing it on different types. Despite this advancement, such approaches may struggle to generate high-quality images when confronted with test samples that significantly differ from the training data or originate from entirely different distributions. The work of Chen et al. [4] is closely related to ours, as it also performs spatial super-resolution. However, while the exact methodology employed by [4] to perform such task remains undisclosed, several key distinctions set our work apart: (i) We explicitly incorporate image alignment and registration to leverage aliased information for spatial super-resolution. (ii) Our network architecture prioritizes interpretability and is closely related to [5], enhancing robustness to new unseen real-world data. (iii) Our network operates independently of changes in illumination wavelength and/or detector/object distance, eliminating the need for retraining when these variables are altered. Rivenson et al.

The cover glass slides are attached to a sticky microchannel slide (IBIDI sticky-Slide I Luer).

Holography enables intriguing microscopic imaging modalities, particularly through Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI), which utilizes the phase of coherent light as a way to reveal the contrast in transparent and thin microscopic specimens. Despite the limitation of image sensors, which detect only light intensity, phase information can still be recorded within a two-dimensional interference pattern between two distinct light waves. Numerical reconstruction is later needed to retrieve the amplitude and phase from such holographic measurements. To this end, we introduce HoloADMM, a novel interpretable, learning-based approach for in-line holographic image reconstruction. HoloADMM enhances imaging capability with spatial image super-resolution, offering a versatile framework that accommodates multiple illumination wavelengths and supports extensive refocusing ranges with up to \\(10\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\) precision.

Advancements in phase imaging have facilitated close-up non-invasive inspection of living cells [28], with applications in medicine [29], biology [20], and neuroscience [8]. Highly accurate interferometry, driven by holographic imaging, finds applications in high-precision engineering [36] and material science. Phase contrast microscopy [2] also offers phase imaging capability but lacks quantitative measurement ability. In contrast, holography is able to quantify exactly the light phase shift making it suitable for applications requiring precise measurements, such as accurate tolerance estimations of microscopic features and three-dimensional object reconstruction [41], additionally, in-line holographic setups can be used in compact, mobile, and lensless imaging systems free of any optical aberrations. Despite its desirable features, in-line holography typically requires iterative numerical reconstruction [14] to retrieve high-quality images and to suppress undesirable artifacts, such as the twin image [39], which corresponds to the latent field's complex conjugate recorded as a byproduct by the image sensor and appears as an out-of-focus, blurry image superimposed onto the true sharp one." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.705, + 0.79, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of learning-based methods in tackling holographic reconstruction, both in supervised [3,4,31] and unsupervised [19] manners and to suppress, to some degree, the twin image artifacts.

With sufficient number of iterations the field typically converges towards the latent one. Fienup [10] later introduced modifications to the original method of [14] notably the Hybrid Input Output (HIO) variant which incorporates a feedback parameter to relax the hard support constraint on the object plane. Indeed, it can be shown that such error reduction approaches are special cases of an inverse problem solving framework [25] prone to local minima and in some cases divergence. Fienup's modification helps avoid possible stagnation and further regularizes the solution space, it has been widely used in the literature and it serves as a baseline method, with variants using single or multiple input holograms captured at different heights referred to as \"SH-PR\" or \"MH-PR\", respectively. Iterative methods leveraging prior knowledge of the target sample, such as sparsity [1,9,39], have demonstrated the ability to produce cleaner images by enforcing such constraints.

Networks trained using pairs of holographic images and sharp ground truth data learn a direct mapping between the two sets, circumventing the need to model the underlying physics of holographic image formation. Once trained successfully, these methods can produce twin image-free and sharp reconstructions. However, this straightforward black box approach may encounter unexpected failure cases when presented with new data exhibiting different statistics than that seen during training. Recent work by Chen et al. [3,4] demonstrated promising model transferability by training a network based on Fourier operators [23] using real data from a specific biological tissue type and testing it on different types. Despite this advancement, such approaches may struggle to generate high-quality images when confronted with test samples that significantly differ from the training data or originate from entirely different distributions. The work of Chen et al. [4] is closely related to ours, as it also performs spatial super-resolution. However, while the exact methodology employed by [4] to perform such task remains undisclosed, several key distinctions set our work apart: (i) We explicitly incorporate image alignment and registration to leverage aliased information for spatial super-resolution. (ii) Our network architecture prioritizes interpretability and is closely related to [5], enhancing robustness to new unseen real-world data. (iii) Our network operates independently of changes in illumination wavelength and/or detector/object distance, eliminating the need for retraining when these variables are altered. Rivenson et al.

Large scale real data with ground truth complex distributions is not trivial to collect, in fact, ground truth data used in the literature is obtained by the MH-PR algorithm [10] or other closely related variants which imposes an upper-bound hindering the true capability of any network. We therefore argue that learning an accurate inverse model through large-scale pixel-accurate synthetic data is crucial for high-quality reconstruction. To this end, we generate a large number of synthetic microscopic data featuring images with varying complexity and sparsity. A stable diffusion model [32] fine-tuned on microscopic images4 is used to generate dense interconnected samples with high spatial frequencies, in addition, samples with a varying degree of sparsity were obtained using a simple software that generates a random number of simple shapes. Fig. 4 shows some samples generated using the two modalities; sparse as well as dense data samples are generated to account for the real nature of microscopic images where individual or few cells as well as dense connective tissues might be present in a given image.

Even with an extreme factor of \\(\\times 8\\), HoloADMM is capable of yielding reasonable results, (see Tab. 2), in contrast to [30], which fails to generate meaningful distributions (see suppl. mat. for more qualitative results). Additionally, results reported in Table 3 and Figure 7 compare the reconstruction performance of HoloADMM, already trained on synthetic data, with other model-based iterative methods on Airplane, Barbara, and Baboon samples from \\(D_{o}\\). For a fair comparison, we report results using single as well as 10 holograms as input; in both cases, our approach outperforms iterative solvers and effectively suppresses signal-dependent sensor noise, unlike [7, 38], where the proposed algorithms tend to fit the noise model as the number of iterations increases. Furthermore, HoloADMM preserves small spatial details, such as the fine whiskers in Figure 7, while avoiding undesirable artifacts like those produced by [27] in an attempt to suppress sensor noise. Iterative approaches typically require a large amount of time to produce reasonable results (up to \\(15\\mathrm{min}\\) for a \\(512 \\times 512\\) image for [7]), while HoloADMM, once trained, can infer complex field distributions in under a second." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.116, + 0.236, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "12" + }, + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.272, + 0.115, + 0.361, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "M.

Please refer to suppl. mat. for details on the hardware setup. We capture holograms of two different samples: Polystyrene beads, which mimics real microscopic samples in both structural size and light transmission properties. They have diameters ranging from \\(0.9 - 9\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\) and are equipped with carboxyl functional groups on their surface, allowing them to covalently attach to the cover glass and form a monolayer structure. The cover glass slides are attached to a sticky microchannel slide (IBIDI sticky-Slide I Luer). The sample is imaged using an illumination wavelength in the visible range, e.g., 638 nm, to achieve ambiguity-free phase retrieval, prevent phase wrapping, and provide suitable phase contrast. The channel is filled with a tailored liquid solution (Immersol). A phase calibration target \"Phasefocus\", was used to calibrate our DIHM setup. This target is fabricated through Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) of amorphous SiO2, which is patterned via optical lithography, as described in [15]. The target includes both phase and amplitude features, which can be imaged using our DIHM. The phase features are \\(600\\mathrm{nm}\\) deep trenches etched into transparent amorphous SiO2, providing feature sizes that span a wide range of spatial frequencies, from length scales of \\(2\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\) to length scales of \\(600\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\).

Holography enables intriguing microscopic imaging modalities, particularly through Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI), which utilizes the phase of coherent light as a way to reveal the contrast in transparent and thin microscopic specimens. Despite the limitation of image sensors, which detect only light intensity, phase information can still be recorded within a two-dimensional interference pattern between two distinct light waves. Numerical reconstruction is later needed to retrieve the amplitude and phase from such holographic measurements. To this end, we introduce HoloADMM, a novel interpretable, learning-based approach for in-line holographic image reconstruction. HoloADMM enhances imaging capability with spatial image super-resolution, offering a versatile framework that accommodates multiple illumination wavelengths and supports extensive refocusing ranges with up to $10\mu \mathrm{m}$ precision. Our results indicate a substantial improvement in reconstruction quality over existing methods and demonstrate HoloADMM's effective adaptation to real holographic data captured by our Digital in-line Holographic Microscope (DIHM). This work not only advances holographic imaging techniques but also broadens the potential for non-invasive microscopic analysis applications. + +Keywords: In-line holography, lens-free microscopy, ADMM, super-resolution, quantitative phase imaging. + +# 1 Introduction + +Dennis Gabor introduced holography in his seminal work [13] where he demonstrated true three dimensional imaging capability by simultaneously recording coherent light's intensity and direction, i.e., phase, within a two-dimensional interference pattern. Gabor's prototype, depicted in Fig. 1 on the right, embodies an in-line holographic imaging setup. Here, an object of interest is illuminated by a coherent light source, generating a diffraction pattern at the detector plane obtained through the interference of two waves: one scattered by the object and + +![](images/d5f356aa7ecffaff4a31bfaee7d5fee28863fc16ee79d3ac808d0e34b05f5c7f.jpg) +Fig. 1: Lens-free in-line holographic setup: (Left) our Digital In-line Holographic Microscope (DIHM). (Right) schematics of the different DIHM components. + +another unobstructed background wave passing through the object plane. This interference pattern encodes both amplitude and phase information of the wave scattered by the object, thus characterizing its complete complex transmission distribution, which can be recovered using phase retrieval-based reconstruction techniques. The ability to capture phase information allows for interesting applications such as phase imaging in microscopy [24], where it allows to generate image contrast for transparent ultra-thin microscopic specimens. Advancements in phase imaging have facilitated close-up non-invasive inspection of living cells [28], with applications in medicine [29], biology [20], and neuroscience [8]. Highly accurate interferometry, driven by holographic imaging, finds applications in high-precision engineering [36] and material science. Phase contrast microscopy [2] also offers phase imaging capability but lacks quantitative measurement ability. In contrast, holography is able to quantify exactly the light phase shift making it suitable for applications requiring precise measurements, such as accurate tolerance estimations of microscopic features and three-dimensional object reconstruction [41], additionally, in-line holographic setups can be used in compact, mobile, and lensless imaging systems free of any optical aberrations. Despite its desirable features, in-line holography typically requires iterative numerical reconstruction [14] to retrieve high-quality images and to suppress undesirable artifacts, such as the twin image [39], which corresponds to the latent field's complex conjugate recorded as a byproduct by the image sensor and appears as an out-of-focus, blurry image superimposed onto the true sharp one. + +Recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of learning-based methods in tackling holographic reconstruction, both in supervised [3,4,31] and unsupervised [19] manners and to suppress, to some degree, the twin image artifacts. The scarcity of real large-scale holographic measurements, coupled with ground truth complex transmission data, has led most approaches in the literature to rely primarily on synthetic data. However, due to the significant domain gap between synthetic and real holographic measurements, achieving model transferability to different domains remains challenging and no approach with effective generalization capabilities have been demonstrated so far. + +We address for the first time this issue and propose a comprehensive and versatile framework based on an unrolled deep architecture inspired by a model-based reconstruction strategy that is robust to domain changes. This is made possible through our proposed model's interpretability: in this way we can leverage large scale synthetic data to effectively learn the inverse holographic image formation model and showcase outstanding generalization ability to the real world domain without any explicit adaptation. Furthermore, we introduce a joint framework for in-line holographic image reconstruction and spatial image super-resolution where we explicitly exploit complimentary spatial information in the form of aliasing introduced by sub-pixel displacements between consecutive holographic measurements. Our main contributions are the following: + +- This work introduces a versatile framework that seamlessly integrates in-line holographic image reconstruction with spatial super-resolution and supports an extensive refocusing range. +- Large scale synthetic data is leveraged to learn the inverse model underlying in-line holographic image formation within an interpretable manner which ensures robust generalization capabilities well beyond the data distribution of the training domain. +- Our approach is validated on standard datasets and also through real world samples imaged with our Digital in-line Holographic Microscope (DIHM): it achieves high-quality reconstruction and demonstrate the framework's efficacy and practical utility in real-world applications. + +# 2 Related Works + +Iterative phase retrieval algorithms based on error reduction are commonly used in digital in-line holography to reconstruct the latent complex field from real-valued holographic measurements. Gerchberg and Saxton [14] first proposed an alternating field projections approach between the object and detector planes while enforcing support constraints. With sufficient number of iterations the field typically converges towards the latent one. Fienup [10] later introduced modifications to the original method of [14] notably the Hybrid Input Output (HIO) variant which incorporates a feedback parameter to relax the hard support constraint on the object plane. Indeed, it can be shown that such error reduction approaches are special cases of an inverse problem solving framework [25] prone to local minima and in some cases divergence. Fienup's modification helps avoid possible stagnation and further regularizes the solution space, it has been widely used in the literature and it serves as a baseline method, with variants using single or multiple input holograms captured at different heights referred to as "SH-PR" or "MH-PR", respectively. Iterative methods leveraging prior knowledge of the target sample, such as sparsity [1,9,39], have demonstrated the ability to produce cleaner images by enforcing such constraints. Moreover, iterative solvers help mitigate the undesirable artifacts of the twin image, as demonstrated in previous studies. For instance, Zhang et al. [39] devised a compressive sensing + +approach employing an iterative shrinkage/thresholding strategy to gradually reduce such artifacts. Latychevskia et al. [21] achieved twin image-free in-line holography through an iterative alternating projections approach without enforcing prior knowledge on the object of interest. Chen et al. [6] proposed an iterative method for holographic image reconstruction and computational refocusing optimizing a least squares problem with plain gradient descent steps. Niknam et al. [27] and Chen et al. [38] employed an untrained neural network with randomly generated weights as a natural image prior within a model-based reconstruction framework. Adversarial iterative techniques have also been investigated in [7] where the authors used a generative network to learn the inverse image formation model of in-line holography, a discriminator is then used to distinguish between the original hologram and the simulated one. + +Learning-based methods offer inherent immunity to the twin image issue. Networks trained using pairs of holographic images and sharp ground truth data learn a direct mapping between the two sets, circumventing the need to model the underlying physics of holographic image formation. Once trained successfully, these methods can produce twin image-free and sharp reconstructions. However, this straightforward black box approach may encounter unexpected failure cases when presented with new data exhibiting different statistics than that seen during training. Recent work by Chen et al. [3,4] demonstrated promising model transferability by training a network based on Fourier operators [23] using real data from a specific biological tissue type and testing it on different types. Despite this advancement, such approaches may struggle to generate high-quality images when confronted with test samples that significantly differ from the training data or originate from entirely different distributions. The work of Chen et al. [4] is closely related to ours, as it also performs spatial super-resolution. However, while the exact methodology employed by [4] to perform such task remains undisclosed, several key distinctions set our work apart: (i) We explicitly incorporate image alignment and registration to leverage aliased information for spatial super-resolution. (ii) Our network architecture prioritizes interpretability and is closely related to [5], enhancing robustness to new unseen real-world data. (iii) Our network operates independently of changes in illumination wavelength and/or detector/object distance, eliminating the need for retraining when these variables are altered. Rivenson et al. [31] introduced a supervised technique where an input hologram is first back-propagated through free space to generate an initial estimate of the latent field which is then fed into a multi-scale CNN that refines it. Huang et al. [19] proposed a self-supervised learning approach where a network similar to that of [3] is trained using a physics consistency loss with a strategy similar to that of [7] where the loss is evaluated between the input hologram and a simulated one using the predicted complex field distribution. + +![](images/68b068145eac2b4e978b62d96a60ef9ad3c8538e882dca9a8e10323f71ac9cc4.jpg) +Fig. 2: The overall fully differentiable architecture of HoloADMM: A stack of low resolution noisy holograms captured at different heights used to reconstruct a high-quality and spatially super-resolved complex field. + +# 3 Methodology + +In this section the image formation model for in-line holography will be presented along with the problem formulation and our proposed model. + +# 3.1 Image Formation Model + +The schematics in Fig. 1 illustrate the basic setup of Gabor's in-line lensless holographic imaging system which we use in our DIHM. Given a latent complex transmission field at the object plane $\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{C}^{hw}$ sampled at high resolution with spatial dimensions $h \times w$ , for each height $z_{i}$ , $i = 1, \dots, N$ a hologram can be simulated using the following equation: + +$$ +f _ {s, \tau_ {i}, z _ {i}} (\mathbf {x}) = D _ {s} W _ {\tau_ {i}} \left| P _ {z _ {i}} \mathbf {x} \right| ^ {2} \tag {1} +$$ + +Where $f_{s,\tau,\mathbf{z}}: \mathbb{C}^{hw} \mapsto \mathbb{R}^{h'w'}$ is the forward in-line holographic image formation model. The latent field $\mathbf{x}$ is propagated to the detector plane using the complex near-field Fresnel propagation kernel $P_{z_i}$ [22]. The real valued hologram is obtained by calculating the modulus square of $P_{z_i}\mathbf{x}$ which is then spatially warped using the matrix $W_{\tau}$ simulating spatial shifts in the $(u,v)$ plane (see Fig. 1) with sub-pixel accuracy, defined by the set $\tau = \{(\tau_1^u, \tau_1^v), \dots, (\tau_N^u, \tau_N^v)\}$ . These spatial shifts are necessary for enabling image super-resolution capability, see Sec. 4.3. $D_s$ is a down-sampling matrix that reduces the image size by a factor of $s$ , resulting in dimensions $h' = h / s$ and $w' = w / s$ . Notice that the image formation model as described here is non-linear, more general, and physically accurate where the object of interest is assumed to have both absorption and phase shift properties—though absorption can sometimes be negligible for thin and transparent micro-organisms. Additionally, sensor read and shot noise + +sources are also simulated using the noise model from [11]: $\sigma (k) = \sqrt{\alpha\cdot y(k) + \gamma}$ , where $\sigma$ is the pixel-dependent standard deviation of the noise level at pixel $k$ , with $\alpha$ and $\gamma$ representing the variances of shot and read noises, respectively, and $y(k)$ is the clean input pixel value. + +# 3.2 Problem Formulation + +The aim of this work is to reconstruct a spatially super-resolved complex transmission distribution from a given stack of noisy low-resolution input holograms $H = [\mathbf{h_1},\dots,\mathbf{h_N}]$ captured at $N$ different heights $\mathbf{z} = [z_{1},\ldots ,z_{N}]$ with spatial shifts $\tau = \{(\tau_1^u,\tau_1^v),\dots,(\tau_N^u,\tau_N^v)\}$ . This problem can be reformulated as a regularized least squares minimization: + +$$ +(\tilde {\mathbf {x}}, \tilde {\tau}) = \underset {\mathbf {x}, \tau} {\arg \min } \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \beta \Psi (\mathbf {x}) \tag {2} +$$ + +Where $\varPsi$ is a regularizer that constrains the possible solution space on the distribution of the latent field $\mathbf{x}$ and $\beta$ is a discrepancy parameter controlling the strength of such regularization. Accurate prediction of $\mathbf{z}$ is important in order to reconstruct $\mathbf{x}$ as the field at the detector plane can be propagated to the object plane and vice-versa using $P_{\mathbf{z}}$ or its conjugate $P_{\mathbf{z}}^{*}$ . The value of $\mathbf{z}$ can be accurately estimated using any computational refocusing technique from the literature [35]. Spatial shifts $\tau$ need to be estimated with sub-pixel accuracy for multi-frame image registration, thereby enabling spatial image super-resolution. The optimization framework as expressed in Eq. 2 is non-linear in all optimization variables $(\tilde{\mathbf{x}},\tilde{\tau})$ and can be solved by iteratively optimizing for one variable at a time while keeping the other one fixed, i.e., by alternating the following (A) and (B) steps: + +$$ +(A) \tilde {\mathbf {x}} = \underset {\mathbf {x}} {\arg \min } \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \beta \Psi (\mathbf {x}) \tag {3} +$$ + +$$ +(B) \tilde {\tau} = \underset {\tau} {\arg \min } \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} \tag {4} +$$ + +# 3.3 HoloADMM: End-to-end Learning For QPI + +Solving for the latent field $(A)$ : Eq. 3 is a regularized non-linear least squares with no closed-form solution for $\tilde{\mathbf{x}}$ : a good approximation can be obtained iteratively with a proper image prior $\varPsi$ such as Total Variation [33] or other natural image priors. Choosing a proper $\varPsi$ to solve Eq. 3 is not trivial: depending on the target scene properties multiple possible image priors can be used. We propose to learn a suitable prior agnostic to scene properties owing to the large representation capacity of deep neural networks. To this end, a variable splitting technique is used to solve Eq. 3 namely the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) [12] where an auxiliary variable $\mathbf{v}$ is introduced such that: + +$$ +(\tilde {\mathbf {x}}, \tilde {\mathbf {v}}) = \underset {\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {v}} {\arg \min} \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \beta \Psi (\mathbf {v}) s. t \mathbf {x} - \mathbf {v} = 0 (5) +$$ + +Note that Eq. 5 is now a constrained version of the previous formulation in Eq. 3 where the data-fidelity and prior terms are no longer coupled and consequently they can be solved separately, Eq. 5 can be further split into multiple subproblems by first retrieving its scaled augmented Lagrangian: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\rho} ^ {\mathrm {A D M M}} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {v}, \mathbf {u}) = \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \beta \Psi (\mathbf {v}) + \frac {\rho}{2} \| \mathbf {x} + \mathbf {u} - \mathbf {v} \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \frac {\rho}{2} \| \mathbf {u} \| _ {2} ^ {2} \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{u}$ is the scaled Lagrange multiplier and $\rho$ is a penalty term for the constraint in Eq. 5 forcing the final estimate $\mathbf{v}$ to be as close as possible to the true solution $\mathbf{x}$ . To minimize Eq. 5 the saddle point of Eq. 6 needs to be found by iteratively solving the following three sub-problems: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} \leftarrow \underset {\mathbf {x}} {\arg \min } \mathcal {L} _ {\rho} ^ {\mathrm {A D M M}} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {v}, \mathbf {u}) = \underset {\mathbf {x}} {\arg \min } \frac {1}{2} \| H - f _ {s, \tau , \mathbf {z}} (\mathbf {x}) \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \frac {\rho}{2} \| \mathbf {x} + \mathbf {u} - \mathbf {v} \| _ {2} ^ {2} (7) +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {v} \leftarrow \underset {\mathbf {v}} {\arg \min } \mathcal {L} _ {\rho} ^ {\mathrm {A D M M}} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {v}, \mathbf {u}) = \underset {\mathbf {v}} {\arg \min } \frac {\rho}{2} \| \mathbf {x} + \mathbf {u} - \mathbf {v} \| _ {2} ^ {2} + \beta \Psi (\mathbf {v}) \tag {8} +$$ + +$$ +\mathbf {u} \leftarrow \mathbf {u} + \mathbf {x} - \mathbf {v} \tag {9} +$$ + +The full model architecture is shown in Fig. 2: in each ADMM iteration (shown in the grey box), $\mathbf{x}$ in Eq. 7 is updated using multiple steps of plain gradient descent or any other gradient based approach, e.g., conjugate gradient. Since $\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{a} + i\mathbf{b} \in \mathbb{C}$ , gradients are calculated using Wirtinger derivatives [26] where $\mathbf{x}$ is updated via: + +$$ +\mathbf {x} \leftarrow \mathbf {x} - \alpha \cdot \frac {\partial}{\partial \mathbf {x} ^ {*}} \mathcal {L} _ {\rho} ^ {\mathrm {A D M M}} (\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {v}, \mathbf {u}) \tag {10} +$$ + +Where $\frac{\partial}{\partial\mathbf{x}^*} = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{\partial}{\partial\mathbf{a}} + i\frac{\partial}{\partial\mathbf{b}})$ , $\mathbf{x}^*$ is the complex conjugate of $\mathbf{x}$ , and $\alpha$ is a learning rate. The gradient calculation requires defining the backward model of $f_{s,\tau,\mathbf{z}}$ which we denote with $f_{s,\tau,\mathbf{z}}^b$ : it is approximated by up-sampling all $N$ low-resolution input holograms, back-propagating each hologram in the stack using $P_{z_i}^*$ , $i = 1,\dots,N$ back to the object plane, and aligning the resulting complex images. Finally, the final back-propagated output $\mathbf{x}^b$ is obtained by averaging all $N$ aligned complex fields. Eq. 8 can be viewed as a simple denoising problem with the identity matrix $I$ as the forward model and a noisy input $x + u$ , where the target is to estimate a clean complex field $v$ . In principle, any plug-and-play denoiser should be suitable to solve Eq. 8. However, to achieve better performance and enable end-to-end learning we use a trainable Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as a denoiser that acts as a learned image prior which in our case is a ResUnet architecture [40]. Finally, the update step of $\mathbf{u}$ is straightforward. + +Fig. 3 shows a detailed implementation of the update rule for any given $\mathbf{x}$ where multiple steps of gradient descent are first performed to solve Eq. 7 followed by a denoising step to solve Eq. 8. Notice that the weights of the CNN are shared among all ADMM iterations which are unrolled to form the overall network architecture. The weights are learned in a supervised end-to-end manner together with all the other hyper-parameters namely the scaled Lagrange multiplier $\rho$ from Eq. 6 and the gradient descent learning rate $\alpha$ from Eq. 10. + +![](images/621cd762d1e889b6a77e984485e09242b9987316003c7177b0131b3e8ce133e0.jpg) +Fig. 3: Detailed implementation of each unrolled ADMM iteration. + +Solving for spatial shifts $(B)$ : In principle any image registration algorithm can be used to estimate spatial shifts $\tau = \{(\tau_1^u, \tau_1^v), \dots, (\tau_N^u, \tau_N^v)\}$ between a reference frame (hologram closest to the object plane) and all the other frames. Note that the registration is not performed on the raw input holograms because diffraction patterns are different due to field propagation since the distance between the object and detector planes changes with each capture. The registration is carried out on the images of the back-propagated stack of $N$ holograms. We use a fast FFT based alignment approach with arbitrary sub-pixel accuracy [17]. + +Complex shallow network: Since the target domain is complex by nature, the initial estimate $(\mathbf{x}^0 \in \mathbb{C})$ undergoes further processing through a shallow complex CNN [16] in order to learn close correlations between its real and imaginary components without the need to separate them into two distinct channels. Such network is designed with a residual connection linking the input and output distributions (see the suppl. mat. for more details), enhancing information flow and reducing noise in $\mathbf{x}^0$ : it has multiple convolution layers with complex kernels in $\mathbb{C}$ thus the learned weights are complex in nature. + +Initialization: As depicted in the initialization block in Fig. 2 (blue box), after estimating the relative spatial displacements using the back-propagated fields, $\mathbf{x}^0$ is obtained by applying the backward model $f_{s,\tau,\mathbf{z}}^b$ as described before and feeding the resulting complex field to the shallow residual complex network. $\mathbf{u}^0$ and $\mathbf{v}^0$ are set to 0. The initial value for the learning rate $\alpha$ of the plain gradient descent step in Eq. 10 is set to 0.01 and $\rho$ in Eq. 6 is set to 0.1, recall that both of these variables are learned end-to-end (refer to the suppl. mat.). We use $L = 3$ gradient descent steps in each block for a total of $n = 5$ ADMM steps. + +# 3.4 Datasets and Training Details + +The lack of real holographic datasets, along with ground truth complex fields, is the main limitation hindering the development of learning-based reconstruction models. Self-supervised approaches, [19, 27] where the loss is evaluated between a real captured hologram and a simulated one using the predicted phase and amplitude distributions of the latent complex field, suffer from three major drawbacks: (i) the problem formulation is severely ill-posed since multiple possible solutions might correspond to the same measurement, eventually leading + +![](images/26852f6be4ebb175459894b3b6ae9ad5b158d2ecfc71baa92c051b3d6aa176cd.jpg) +Fig. 4: Synthetic data generated using a stable diffusion model (top left) and a software that generate random shapes with different sparsity levels (bottom left).

These loss function needs to capture relevant characteristics of the data and the reconstruction task, which may not always be straightforward to define; (iii) the real forward model, if not carefully designed, will further contribute to low reconstruction quality even with small simulation inaccuracies. Large scale real data with ground truth complex distributions is not trivial to collect, in fact, ground truth data used in the literature is obtained by the MH-PR algorithm [10] or other closely related variants which imposes an upper-bound hindering the true capability of any network. We therefore argue that learning an accurate inverse model through large-scale pixel-accurate synthetic data is crucial for high-quality reconstruction. To this end, we generate a large number of synthetic microscopic data featuring images with varying complexity and sparsity. A stable diffusion model [32] fine-tuned on microscopic images4 is used to generate dense interconnected samples with high spatial frequencies, in addition, samples with a varying degree of sparsity were obtained using a simple software that generates a random number of simple shapes. Fig. 4 shows some samples generated using the two modalities; sparse as well as dense data samples are generated to account for the real nature of microscopic images where individual or few cells as well as dense connective tissues might be present in a given image. Phase and amplitude distributions are obtained from a single gray-scale image $\mathbf{I}$ by $A = |\mathbf{x}| = e^{\omega \times \mathbf{I}}$ , $\varPhi=\angle\mathbf{x}=\pi\mathbf{I}$ , where $\omega \leq 0$ is a weight determining the degree of transparency of the sample, no amplitude information (or fully transparent image) corresponds to $\omega=0$ , data is simulated with $\omega=-1.6$ to favor highly transparent samples. The dataset contains more than 100k different training samples (a smaller dataset led to lower performances). As shown on Fig. 4 (right) input low resolution noisy holograms are coupled with high-resolution clean phase and amplitude images. During training, wavelengths are chosen randomly from [440, 530, 638] nm and used to simulate each hologram along with a broad refocusing range from 0.5 mm up to 1.0 mm with a step size of $10\mu\mathrm{m}$ . The dataset is challenging because a single object can have many corresponding + +Table 1: Quantitative comparison results on $D_{i}$ and $D_{o}$ synthetic test data without spatial super-resolution. $(\dagger)$ is a self-supervised approach. + +

HoloADMM is trained using $N = 10$ holograms, yet it is able to infer complex fields from an arbitrary number of input holograms, provided enough memory. As demonstrated below, our model consistently exhibits superior reconstruction quality compared to the state-of-the-art, even when provided with just a single hologram as input or when the input is heavily down-sampled. Quantitative metrics reported in Tab. 1 demonstrate HoloADMM's efficacy on both datasets, outperforming competing approaches by considerable margins according to all reported metrics with an average PSNR improvement of over 4dB on the phase $(\varPhi)$ compared to the second best approach on $D_{o}$ . Performances are confirmed by Fig. 5 where visual inspection reveals HoloADMM's capability to preserve image details while effectively suppressing sensor noise, resulting in clean and sharp phase images in contrast to competing methods (note that [3] fails to suppress signal-dependent noise and [31, 37] suffer from blur artifacts). + +When considering also joint spatial super-resolution, HoloADMM is trained using a stack of holograms decimated by a factor of $\times 4$ with an input shape + +![](images/786d3cbc1dbab2dd3989bee399d305d3e4ccca4a8c234d3611826e12cd98e9cd.jpg) +Fig. 5: Reconstructed $\varPhi$ from some synthetic holographic samples from $D_{i}$ and $D_{o}$ . + +Table 2: Quantitative comparison results on on $D_{i}$ and $D_{o}$ synthetic test data with spatial super-resolution. + +

+ +of $128 \times 128$ pixels, yet it achieves superior phase image quality (see, Fig. 6), compared to other competitors trained using high-resolution inputs ( $512 \times 512$ pixels). Tab. 2 quantitatively corroborates these results: HoloADMM reaches an SSIM value of 0.791 with $\times 4$ down-sampled inputs, compared to 0.703 obtained by [31] with full-resolution input holograms. Ren et al. [30] also performs spatial super-resolution via sub-pixel convolutions [34]. The results in Table 2 and Figure 6 demonstrate that our model produces sharper images, preserving high-frequency details and outperforming [30] for $\times 4$ super-resolution. Even with an extreme factor of $\times 8$ , HoloADMM is capable of yielding reasonable results, (see Tab. 2), in contrast to [30], which fails to generate meaningful distributions (see suppl. mat. for more qualitative results). Additionally, results reported in Table 3 and Figure 7 compare the reconstruction performance of HoloADMM, already trained on synthetic data, with other model-based iterative methods on Airplane, Barbara, and Baboon samples from $D_{o}$ . For a fair comparison, we report results using single as well as 10 holograms as input; in both cases, our approach outperforms iterative solvers and effectively suppresses signal-dependent sensor noise, unlike [7, 38], where the proposed algorithms tend to fit the noise model as the number of iterations increases. Furthermore, HoloADMM preserves small spatial details, such as the fine whiskers in Figure 7, while avoiding undesirable artifacts like those produced by [27] in an attempt to suppress sensor noise. Iterative approaches typically require a large amount of time to produce reasonable results (up to $15\mathrm{min}$ for a $512 \times 512$ image for [7]), while HoloADMM, once trained, can infer complex field distributions in under a second. + +![](images/3f46ce22cca470c2cb54d05057cddaaafbdae81af20424c1862c9a6674502049.jpg) +Fig. 6: Reconstructions with $\times 4$ SR for HoloADMM and [30] and $\times 1$ for [3,31]. + +Table 3: Quantitative results (PSNR) on some standard test targets.

+ +# 4.2 Real Holographic Data + +Fig. 1 shows our DIHM prototype with multi-height phase retrieval and sub-pixel shift super-resolution capability. Please refer to suppl. mat. for details on the hardware setup. We capture holograms of two different samples: Polystyrene beads, which mimics real microscopic samples in both structural size and light transmission properties. They have diameters ranging from $0.9 - 9\mu \mathrm{m}$ and are equipped with carboxyl functional groups on their surface, allowing them to covalently attach to the cover glass and form a monolayer structure. The cover glass slides are attached to a sticky microchannel slide (IBIDI sticky-Slide I Luer). The sample is imaged using an illumination wavelength in the visible range, e.g., 638 nm, to achieve ambiguity-free phase retrieval, prevent phase wrapping, and provide suitable phase contrast. The channel is filled with a tailored liquid solution (Immersol). A phase calibration target "Phasefocus", was used to calibrate our DIHM setup. This target is fabricated through Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) of amorphous SiO2, which is patterned via optical lithography, as described in [15]. The target includes both phase and amplitude features, which can be imaged using our DIHM. The phase features are $600\mathrm{nm}$ deep trenches etched into transparent amorphous SiO2, providing feature sizes that span a wide range of spatial frequencies, from length scales of $2\mu \mathrm{m}$ to length scales of $600\mu \mathrm{m}$ . Our focus is on the reconstruction performance of the smallest features, such as GRP 9, + +![](images/0b15e352ea956299cd386d077ce90bc1946506c9b3c61ad54867b32432ca2b01.jpg) +Fig. 7: Reconstruction results of $A$ and $\varPhi$ on Baboon test target. + +![](images/02247c0a47b10f92279771b4c349efa9f8aca5b5153a9541596387d6a3b7b884.jpg) +Fig. 8: Reconstructed $\varPhi$ from real beads holograms with $\times 1$ and $\times 4$ SR.

We tested all competing models listed in Tab. 1 trained solely on synthetic data and obtained very poor and sometimes meaningless reconstructions on real data, further highlighting the challenge of model transferability beyond the training domain. Qualitative results for those models are reported in the suppl. mat. In contrast, HoloADMM is able to produce high-quality reconstructions on different holographic samples for a model trained on synthetic data only and without any form of adaptation. Notably, it not only produces meaningful results but also achieves higher spatial resolution, up to $\times 4$ as shown in Fig. 8 reaching an effective pixel size of $280~\mathrm{nm}$ , alongside results from the standard MH-PR algorithm. Fig. 9 shows reconstructed GRP 9 features from the phase calibration target, along with outputs from other iterative approaches listed in Tab. 3. HoloADMM reconstructs cleaner and sharper phase and amplitude images suppressing noise and undesirable diffraction patterns, revealing fully transparent features with higher contrast and allowing for better quality 3D surface reconstructions from predicted $\varPhi$ w.r.t. competitors. + +# 4.3 Ablation Studies + +Different ablation experiments have been conducted on a small subset of the training dataset.

A naive approach that takes a hologram stack as input and predicts the latent field falls short of achieving good performance, even on training data, as shown in Fig. 10 (center), and is unable to generalize beyond that domain. Image registration is crucial for image super-resolution; without such a step, complementary spatial information in the form of aliasing is not exploited, and the spatial quality of the reconstructed images deteriorates, as shown in Fig. 10 (right). More ablation results are in the suppl. mat. + +# 5 Conclusions + +We introduced HoloADMM, an approach that combines interpretability of model-based solvers and the large learning capacity of deep neural networks. We demonstrated that by leveraging large-scale synthetic datasets, high-quality phase imaging capability can be achieved. Additionally, our approach exhibits strong generalization abilities, seamlessly extending to real captured holographic data with notable accuracy. This not only highlights the promise of our methodology but also suggests its potential for practical applications across diverse domains, from biomedical imaging to materials science and beyond. Nonetheless, there are other avenues for potential investigation, such as joint computational refocusing. This is a natural extension of our work and will be further investigated. + +# Acknowledgments + +This collaborative work was funded by Sony Group Corporation's Research and Development Center.

Holography enables intriguing microscopic imaging modalities, particularly through Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI), which utilizes the phase of coherent light as a way to reveal the contrast in transparent and thin microscopic specimens. Despite the limitation of image sensors, which detect only light intensity, phase information can still be recorded within a two-dimensional interference pattern between two distinct light waves. Numerical reconstruction is later needed to retrieve the amplitude and phase from such holographic measurements.

This interference pattern encodes both amplitude and phase information of the wave scattered by the object, thus characterizing its complete complex transmission distribution, which can be recovered using phase retrieval-based reconstruction techniques. The ability to capture phase information allows for interesting applications such as phase imaging in microscopy [24], where it allows to generate image contrast for transparent ultra-thin microscopic specimens. Advancements in phase imaging have facilitated close-up non-invasive inspection of living cells [28], with applications in medicine [29], biology [20], and neuroscience [8]. Highly accurate interferometry, driven by holographic imaging, finds applications in high-precision engineering [36] and material science. Phase contrast microscopy [2] also offers phase imaging capability but lacks quantitative measurement ability. In contrast, holography is able to quantify exactly the light phase shift making it suitable for applications requiring precise measurements, such as accurate tolerance estimations of microscopic features and three-dimensional object reconstruction [41], additionally, in-line holographic setups can be used in compact, mobile, and lensless imaging systems free of any optical aberrations. Despite its desirable features, in-line holography typically requires iterative numerical reconstruction [14] to retrieve high-quality images and to suppress undesirable artifacts, such as the twin image [39], which corresponds to the latent field's complex conjugate recorded as a byproduct by the image sensor and appears as an out-of-focus, blurry image superimposed onto the true sharp one." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 483, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 483, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 558, + 483, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Recent advancements have demonstrated the efficacy of learning-based methods in tackling holographic reconstruction, both in supervised [3,4,31] and unsupervised [19] manners and to suppress, to some degree, the twin image artifacts.

Gerchberg and Saxton [14] first proposed an alternating field projections approach between the object and detector planes while enforcing support constraints. With sufficient number of iterations the field typically converges towards the latent one. Fienup [10] later introduced modifications to the original method of [14] notably the Hybrid Input Output (HIO) variant which incorporates a feedback parameter to relax the hard support constraint on the object plane. Indeed, it can be shown that such error reduction approaches are special cases of an inverse problem solving framework [25] prone to local minima and in some cases divergence. Fienup's modification helps avoid possible stagnation and further regularizes the solution space, it has been widely used in the literature and it serves as a baseline method, with variants using single or multiple input holograms captured at different heights referred to as \"SH-PR\" or \"MH-PR\", respectively. Iterative methods leveraging prior knowledge of the target sample, such as sparsity [1,9,39], have demonstrated the ability to produce cleaner images by enforcing such constraints.

Networks trained using pairs of holographic images and sharp ground truth data learn a direct mapping between the two sets, circumventing the need to model the underlying physics of holographic image formation. Once trained successfully, these methods can produce twin image-free and sharp reconstructions. However, this straightforward black box approach may encounter unexpected failure cases when presented with new data exhibiting different statistics than that seen during training. Recent work by Chen et al. [3,4] demonstrated promising model transferability by training a network based on Fourier operators [23] using real data from a specific biological tissue type and testing it on different types. Despite this advancement, such approaches may struggle to generate high-quality images when confronted with test samples that significantly differ from the training data or originate from entirely different distributions. The work of Chen et al. [4] is closely related to ours, as it also performs spatial super-resolution. However, while the exact methodology employed by [4] to perform such task remains undisclosed, several key distinctions set our work apart: (i) We explicitly incorporate image alignment and registration to leverage aliased information for spatial super-resolution. (ii) Our network architecture prioritizes interpretability and is closely related to [5], enhancing robustness to new unseen real-world data. (iii) Our network operates independently of changes in illumination wavelength and/or detector/object distance, eliminating the need for retraining when these variables are altered. Rivenson et al. [31] introduced a supervised technique where an input hologram is first back-propagated through free space to generate an initial estimate of the latent field which is then fed into a multi-scale CNN that refines it.

These loss function needs to capture relevant characteristics of the data and the reconstruction task, which may not always be straightforward to define; (iii) the real forward model, if not carefully designed, will further contribute to low reconstruction quality even with small simulation inaccuracies. Large scale real data with ground truth complex distributions is not trivial to collect, in fact, ground truth data used in the literature is obtained by the MH-PR algorithm [10] or other closely related variants which imposes an upper-bound hindering the true capability of any network. We therefore argue that learning an accurate inverse model through large-scale pixel-accurate synthetic data is crucial for high-quality reconstruction. To this end, we generate a large number of synthetic microscopic data featuring images with varying complexity and sparsity. A stable diffusion model [32] fine-tuned on microscopic images4 is used to generate dense interconnected samples with high spatial frequencies, in addition, samples with a varying degree of sparsity were obtained using a simple software that generates a random number of simple shapes. Fig. 4 shows some samples generated using the two modalities; sparse as well as dense data samples are generated to account for the real nature of microscopic images where individual or few cells as well as dense connective tissues might be present in a given image.

The channel is filled with a tailored liquid solution (Immersol). A phase calibration target \"Phasefocus\", was used to calibrate our DIHM setup.

Temporal multiplexing can improve the degrees of freedom [21, 31], but at the cost of lower frameres, increased bandwidth requirements and the need for multiple spatial-light modulators (SLMs). Furthermore, light is inherently blocked to form desired patterns, reducing output brightness. Another possibility is multiple overlapping projectors focused at different depths [5, 37], but such systems again require multiple SLMs, increasing cost and form factor. Alternatively, a fast focus-tunable lens that is synchronized with a high-speed projector [52, 55] could be used to temporally multiplex patterns focused at different depths. While theoretically effective, current focus-tunable lenses are limited in aperture size, increasing crosstalk between different depths (Fig. 2(b)).

In our experiments on a typical SLM, we find that achieving a useful amount of depth variation necessitates a large focal length projector lens, which results in a tiny field-of-view. We derive that this relationship between depth variation and field-of-view is fundamentally connected to the *etendue* of a holographic projector — a measure of light spread over area and angle.

In short, maximizing the area that the human eye can move and see an image from a holographic display minimizes the size of that image and vice versa, limiting the practicality of holographic near-eye displays. A number of approaches have been proposed to increase the etendue of near-eye displays. In one line of work, multiple laser sources are time-multiplexed to stitch together a larger FOV [30], but such an approach requires an extremely fast SLM which is not currently readily available [36]. Instead, recent work has focused on adding static high-resolution phase masks into the optical path, that effectively spatially multiplex the SLM over a larger FOV [2,8,28,36].

Since large differences between $f_{x}^{2} + f_{y}^{2}$ and $a_{x}^{2} + a_{y}^{2}$ are weighed more heavily than small differences in this expression, more depth variation can be achieved by stretching the Fourier spectrum $S$ of a wavefront, as this increases the maximum $f_{x}^{2} + f_{y}^{2}$ . In the setup given by Eq. (3), this operation is directly equivalent to increasing SLM area. However, naively using a lens to increase the size of an SLM also increases pixel size, resulting in a smaller field-of-view. Thus, like the eyebox in near-eye displays, depth variation suffers from a fundamental etendue tradeoff with field-of-view. As a result, on modern SLMs, a holographic projector cannot project patterns that significantly vary in depth without an excessively small FOV.

Intuitively, a given output point only receives light from a subset of the SLM thanks to the multiplexing. Since the SLM controls the angular distribution of light, the defocus pattern will be structured according to the multiplexing of the SLM.

We bilateral filter all images to reduce the effect of speckle. Note that unlike a traditional triangulation light curtain [4, 13, 48, 49, 51], this procedure does not require stereo calibration or a baseline, and complex, multi-layer curtains can be easily formed with a single SLM pattern. In addition, this approach does not require the careful synchronization of complex camera optics that typical devices require. Furthermore, our light curtains are visible to the naked eye, unlike past approaches that rely on a scanning camera. This could potentially enable new applications like augmented sculpting, where an artist could directly identify if they carved an object correctly by looking at the texture formed on the object.", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 613, + 787, + 840 + ], + "page_idx": 11 + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "text": "12", + "bbox": [ + 217, + 114, + 235, + 126 + ], + "page_idx": 11 + }, + { + "type": "header", + "text": "D.

Furthermore, structured light systems struggle with a tradeoff between depth-of-field and brightness — a large aperture projector lens is desired so that output patterns are bright and legible under ambient light, but this simultaneously reduces projector depth-of-field and therefore resolution for scenes with a variety of depths. In contrast, our cue's resolution fundamentally increases with larger aperture, avoiding this tradeoff. Time-of-flight does not have depth-of-field challenges, but it lacks the depth resolution in settings like microscopy where the height profiles of tiny objects are required [22].

For instance, CWTOF suffers a tradeoff between ambiguous range and depth resolution. If the CWTOF sensor also emits a depth-dependent pattern, the holographic cues could be used to estimate a coarse depth without any ambiguous range, which CWTOF super-resolves using sinusoids with a larger ambiguous range but finer depth resolution.

Temporal multiplexing can improve the degrees of freedom [21, 31], but at the cost of lower frameres, increased bandwidth requirements and the need for multiple spatial-light modulators (SLMs). Furthermore, light is inherently blocked to form desired patterns, reducing output brightness. Another possibility is multiple overlapping projectors focused at different depths [5, 37], but such systems again require multiple SLMs, increasing cost and form factor. Alternatively, a fast focus-tunable lens that is synchronized with a high-speed projector [52, 55] could be used to temporally multiplex patterns focused at different depths.

In our experiments on a typical SLM, we find that achieving a useful amount of depth variation necessitates a large focal length projector lens, which results in a tiny field-of-view.

A number of approaches have been proposed to increase the etendue of near-eye displays. In one line of work, multiple laser sources are time-multiplexed to stitch together a larger FOV [30], but such an approach requires an extremely fast SLM which is not currently readily available [36]. Instead, recent work has focused on adding static high-resolution phase masks into the optical path, that effectively spatially multiplex the SLM over a larger FOV [2,8,28,36].

In the setup given by Eq. (3), this operation is directly equivalent to increasing SLM area. However, naively using a lens to increase the size of an SLM also increases pixel size, resulting in a smaller field-of-view. Thus, like the eyebox in near-eye displays, depth variation suffers from a fundamental etendue tradeoff with field-of-view. As a result, on modern SLMs, a holographic projector cannot project patterns that significantly vary in depth without an excessively small FOV.

Intuitively, a given output point only receives light from a subset of the SLM thanks to the multiplexing. Since the SLM controls the angular distribution of light, the defocus pattern will be structured according to the multiplexing of the SLM.

Simulating each microlens without aliasing requires a resolution of \\(2.5\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\times 1.78\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\), translating to an expansion in etendue by \\(3.2\\times 4.5\\). We therefore simulated our system at \\(9600\\times 6000\\) with \\(1.6\\mu \\mathrm{m}\\) pitch. We used a \\(75\\mathrm{mm}\\) achromatic doublet for Lens 1, and two \\(85\\mathrm{mm}f / 1.4\\) DSLR lenses for Lens 2 and a projection lens that magnifies the patterns into the scene. We use a beamsplitter to illuminate our reflective SLM along the optical axis. Using another beamsplitter, we colocate with the projector a UI-3240CP-NIR camera with a \\(16\\mathrm{mm}f / 1.8\\) lens. The captured scenes are between \\(0.4\\mathrm{m}\\) and \\(0.7\\mathrm{m}\\) away from the system.

Typical projectors are designed to programmably display 2D content at a single depth. In this work, we explore how to engineer a depth-varying projector system that is capable of forming desired patterns at multiple depths. To this end, we leverage a holographic approach, but a naïve implementation of such a system is limited in its depth programmability. Inspired by recent work in near-eye displays, we add a lens array to a holographic projector to maximize the depth variation of the projected content, for which we propose an optimization-driven calibration method. We demonstrate a number of applications using this system, including novel 3D interfaces for future wearables, privacy-preserving projection, depth sensing, and light curtains. + +# 1 Introduction + +Projectors have found widespread use in the real world today. They are ubiquitous in entertainment and education, used to show movies and messages on large screens for big audiences [6]. In industrial tasks, they are widely used to capture extremely accurate depth measurements through structured light [18]. In the modern era, they are rapidly being integrated into wearable devices for augmented reality tasks like screenless interfaces [1], 3D scanning [42] and more. + +A traditional projector is designed to display content on a 2D planar screen at a particular depth. To do so, a digital-micromirror device (DMD) or liquid crystal display (LCD) programmably masks light from a bulb, which is then imaged into the scene by a projection lens to the correct depth. The pattern at any another depth is simply a blurred version of this in-focus image. + +While such a projection model is practical for many tasks, more explicit programmable control of the projected content at different depths, e.g., the projected pattern morphs from one desired image to another with depth, could be very useful. Such a general purpose, programmable depth-varying projector would find immediate application in both industrial and artistic settings. For example, such a system could be used to create novel screenless 3D interfaces, + +![](images/835a9f09d43779dce24acbeef7dc414affdab840b91ab8f82ddba63648100cd5.jpg) +Fig. 1: We leverage a holographic projector for forming depth-varying patterns. In other words, we can program unique content at multiple depths per pixel simultaneously. This capability could be useful for future interfaces, depth sensing, and more. + +where the projector displays different buttons on objects at different depths. As part of a wearable gadget, such a device could project private content to just nearby objects like a user's arm, while farther objects only see a scrambled version. On the stage, a foreground image could be shown on moving actors, while a different background image automatically appears behind them. In industrial applications, an appropriate depth-varying pattern could be used as a depth cue, without the need for a stereo baseline. Such a device could additionally form multiple light curtains flexibly and simultaneously unlike past work [4,13,51]. + +However, existing projectors that could tackle these applications come with various tradeoffs. Coded aperture [20, 24, 25, 31, 54] and light field projectors [21] are limited in programmability, and struggle to form arbitrary content at different planes (Fig. 2(a)), e.g., coded apertures are restricted to an intensity convolution between an in-focus image and a scaled version of the aperture pattern [20]. Temporal multiplexing can improve the degrees of freedom [21, 31], but at the cost of lower frameres, increased bandwidth requirements and the need for multiple spatial-light modulators (SLMs). Furthermore, light is inherently blocked to form desired patterns, reducing output brightness. Another possibility is multiple overlapping projectors focused at different depths [5, 37], but such systems again require multiple SLMs, increasing cost and form factor. Alternatively, a fast focus-tunable lens that is synchronized with a high-speed projector [52, 55] could be used to temporally multiplex patterns focused at different depths. While theoretically effective, current focus-tunable lenses are limited in aperture size, increasing crosstalk between different depths (Fig. 2(b)). Simultaneously, producing content at multiple depths requires a high level of temporal multiplexing, again decreasing framerate and increasing bandwidth requirements. + +Holographic projection provides an alternative that avoids many of these pitfalls. For one, a holographic approach can project depth-dependent content using just a single pattern on a single SLM [29,33,50,53,56,57], avoiding the need for time multiplexing. Additionally, holographic setups have far more degrees of freedom than incoherent approaches [38], increasing resolution and programmaticability (Fig. 2(d)). Moreover, such systems are light redistributive and can form + +patterns without blocking light, increasing dynamic range [13-15, 47]. Due to these reasons, a holographic depth-varying projector is a promising solution. + +In practice, however, naively rescaling a holographic setup to the field-of-view expected of a projector results in limited depth variation. In fact, forming unique content at two depths requires that these depths are separated on the order of meters [56], making the desired applications impractical on holographic systems. In our experiments on a typical SLM, we find that achieving a useful amount of depth variation necessitates a large focal length projector lens, which results in a tiny field-of-view. We derive that this relationship between depth variation and field-of-view is fundamentally connected to the *etendue* of a holographic projector — a measure of light spread over area and angle. Inspired by research that tries to tackle the field-of-view and eyebox tradeoff of near-eye displays [2,8,28,30,36], we introduce a lens array into the optical path of a typical holographic projector to increase depth variation, enabling far more complex patterns than past work [56]. We develop a novel optimization-driven calibration for this optic, that tackles challenges like misalignment and aberration that past approaches ignore. With these modifications, we realize a practical, high-resolution programmable depth-varying projector, that is capable of achieving all of the aforementioned applications in a single setup. + +The contributions of this work include: + +- a proof-of-concept system for a depth-varying holographic projector, with étendue expanded by a lens array; +- an optimization-driven calibration process for this étendue expander; +- a demonstration of multi-plane projection for 3D interfaces, privacy, multi-layer displays, defocus compensation and artistic applications; and +- an exploration of holographic depth-varying projection as a depth cue, for which we show techniques for depth capture and light curtains. + +# 2 Related work + +Historically, holographic projectors have primarily been explored for their potential compact form factor [7,34,35,46], as they can create a large field-of-view without the need for a lens. In recent work, holographic projectors have seen a resurgence in computer vision for their inherent light redistribution properties [13-15,47], which allow for the projection of extremely bright patterns. This increased contrast enables fast structured light [13], eye-safe 3D sensing [47], and longer range continuous-wave time-of-flight (CWTOF) imaging [14]. Some past work has touched on using holographic projectors to account for projector defocus [46] by digitally refocusing content, but the level of improvement is small thanks to the already limited depth variation and therefore defocus of a typical system. In contrast, our work increases the depth variation of a holographic projector, which we use to engineer a programmable depth-varying projector. + +In a different domain, near-eye display research [10-12,16,17,23,27,32,38,39, 44,45] has shown impressive results using holography to produce 3D accommodation cues, replicating depth maps and focal stacks with the target of realistic + +![](images/da7918b97eb9d077e3166af09d61625a037ff24e4a0f8591725d604874ea6c3d.jpg) + +![](images/34cd9ede199f3d3fc1b14a0bf003583a4ed34ee946f60b1c57db0e1035cc90ea.jpg) +Target +Fig. 2: Simulated comparison of depth-varying projection solutions. To compare with other potential configurations, we simulate the projection of unique content at two planes. A coded aperture setup with two SLMs [20] (implym. details in supp.), struggles to form the desired content as shown in (a). A time-multiplexed focus-tunable lens and high-speed projector (b) does better visually, but low frequency errors occur thanks to crosstalk on top of the practical challenges associated with time-multiplexing (Sec. 1). A holographic system that uses a custom random binary phase mask [28] (c) results in loss of contrast. The off-the-shelf lens array used in this work (d) performs similarly to the time-multiplexed case with just a single SLM pattern. + +![](images/73a7b9a05bdfa5a0fa8516e1684015227d549ca196996816a6db4023348f46da.jpg) + +![](images/b6ae148e0aaf46d758b1ccc8babca0e645c8adb3c8e3bc87a3ea7f8a21c9940e.jpg) +(a)Coded ap.[20] +Incoherent + +![](images/e8eb9bcccd58a68681b111eb49c551cfb300efdb813d821156405f129ea7701a.jpg) + +![](images/b84dc216efc2b2a28f2a1e48fbf338ea7233b6ae735353d65b7bdf3ee9db24a4.jpg) +(b) Focus-tn.

Our work is most similar in spirit to true 3D holographic displays, where independent control of every 3D point is desired — however, most such systems are also limited in depth variation, making them unsuitable for a projector. Most work in this space focuses on computational methods to improve the quality of phase retrieval [33,50,57]. Time multiplexing can be applied to better disambiguate content at different depths [29,53], but it does not fundamentally improve depth variation. Most akin to our real system, Yu et al. [56] introduce a thick scattering layer to increase axial resolution, but their approach requires custom optics, careful interferometric calibration of a large lookup table and low resolution simple patterns with $< 100$ sparse points. In contrast, our system uses simple optics that can be easily calibrated in-setup with our proposed approach, and we demonstrate it on much more complex megapixel patterns. More generally, our work shows that the 3D capabilities of holographic displays are extremely useful for novel projector systems with the right modifications, and expands the use cases of these holographic devices. + +# 3 3D holographic projection + +We aim to programmably project content at different depths in the scene using a holographic projector. We start by discussing the image formation model of a normal holographic projector, and how it can be extended to project depth-varying content.

Laser light collimated by Lens 1 illuminates a phase SLM at the front focal plane of Lens 2. The Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}$ of the SLM modulation $U_{\mathrm{SLM}} = e^{j\phi_{\mathrm{SLM}}}$ appears at the back focal plane of Lens 2: + +$$ +U _ {\text {b a c k}} = \mathcal {F} \left\{U _ {\text {S L M}} \right\}. \tag {1} +$$ + +This Fourier relationship effectively redirects light from dark to bright regions of output patterns, increasing dynamic range over a typical projector [13-15, 47]. + +In practice, different depths in the scene will receive slightly different content, which can be predicted using wave optics. For example, the angular spectrum method (ASM) can be used to simulate the light propagation between some plane $U$ and some other plane $z$ away [19], with $S = \mathcal{F}\{U\}$ : + +$$ +\mathcal {P} (U, z) = \iint_ {\Omega} S \left(f _ {x}, f _ {y}\right) e ^ {j \frac {2 \pi}{\lambda} z \sqrt {1 - \left(\lambda f _ {x}\right) ^ {2} - \left(\lambda f _ {y}\right) ^ {2}}} e ^ {j 2 \pi \left(f _ {x} x + f _ {y} y\right)} d f _ {x} d f _ {y}, \tag {2} +$$ + +$$ +g _ {\text {m u l t i p l a n e}} (U, z) = \mathcal {P} (\mathcal {F} (U), z), \tag {3} +$$ + +where $\lambda$ is the laser wavelength, $f_{x}$ and $f_{y}$ denote Fourier transform frequencies, and $\Omega$ is the support of $S$ , handling evanescent waves. This operator $\mathcal{P}$ can be expressed as a simple elementwise multiplication in the frequency domain, allowing for efficient computation. Eq. (3) determines the appearance of the projector pattern for different depths in the scene. We can also attempt to invert this model in order to project desired depth-varying content. In our work, we solve the following optimization problem using Adam [26]: + +$$ +\min _ {\phi_ {\mathrm {S L M}}} \quad \sum_ {k} \mathcal {L} \left(\mathcal {D} \left(| g \left(U _ {\mathrm {S L M}}, z _ {k}\right)\right) ^ {2}\right), I _ {k}\left. \right), \tag {4} +$$ + +where $g(\cdot)$ is the desired forward model such as Eq. (3), $\mathcal{L}$ is some loss function, $\mathcal{D}$ is a resizing operator that matches the input and output degrees of freedom [36], and $I_{k}$ and $z_{k}$ denote the intensity and depth of the $k$ th target. + +![](images/447bc0e0486a5a92edf5e59555c99f4dfb81e6b06faf9ad3002444c883e66fe3.jpg) +Fig.4: Étendue expansion with a lens array. We visualize the importance of étendue for depth-varying projection. For a given field-of-view (a), without étendue expansion, there is a significant amount of crosstalk between two target depth planes. With an étendue-expanding lens array, the quality of projection is much higher. For a given depth variation (b), the effective field-of-view is very small with a typical SLM. With étendue-expansion, the field-of-view is much larger. + +# 3.2 Étendue-expanded projection + +In practice, current holographic systems are limited in etendue. Defined as the product of the system's spatial area $A$ and the solid angle of emitted light, the etendue $\mathcal{E}$ of an SLM with $N_{x} \times N_{y}$ pixels of pitch $\delta$ can be calculated as [28]: + +$$ +\sin \theta = \frac {\lambda}{2 \delta}, A = \delta^ {2} N _ {x} N _ {y}, \mathcal {E} = 4 A \sin^ {2} \theta = \lambda^ {2} N _ {x} N _ {y}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\theta$ is the maximal tilt angle of the SLM. In recent work, etendue has been extensively studied for near-eye displays, where it results in a tradeoff between field-of-view and eyebox size. In short, maximizing the area that the human eye can move and see an image from a holographic display minimizes the size of that image and vice versa, limiting the practicality of holographic near-eye displays. A number of approaches have been proposed to increase the etendue of near-eye displays. In one line of work, multiple laser sources are time-multiplexed to stitch together a larger FOV [30], but such an approach requires an extremely fast SLM which is not currently readily available [36]. Instead, recent work has focused on adding static high-resolution phase masks into the optical path, that effectively spatially multiplex the SLM over a larger FOV [2,8,28,36]. Lens arrays serve as a low-cost alternative [8,36] to these custom-fabricated phase masks [2,28]. + +For holographic projectors, étendue effectively presents a similar tradeoff between depth variation and field-of-view. To quantify this, we can calculate the rate of change of a projected pattern with depth by calculating $\partial \{|\mathcal{P}(U,z)|^2\} /\partial z$ : + +$$ +\iint_ {\Omega} \iint_ {\Omega} \left(\sqrt {1 - \left(\lambda f _ {x}\right) ^ {2} - \left(\lambda f _ {y}\right) ^ {2}} - \sqrt {1 - \left(\lambda a _ {x}\right) ^ {2} - \left(\lambda a _ {y}\right) ^ {2}}\right) \tag {6} +$$ + +$$ +\cdot P ^ {*} \left(f _ {x}, f _ {y}, x, y, z\right) P \left(a _ {x}, a _ {y}, x, y, z\right) \mathrm {d} f _ {x} \mathrm {d} f _ {y} \mathrm {d} a _ {x} \mathrm {d} a _ {y} +$$ + +where $P(\cdot)$ contains all terms inside the integral of Eq. (2). Since large differences between $f_{x}^{2} + f_{y}^{2}$ and $a_{x}^{2} + a_{y}^{2}$ are weighed more heavily than small differences in this expression, more depth variation can be achieved by stretching the Fourier spectrum $S$ of a wavefront, as this increases the maximum $f_{x}^{2} + f_{y}^{2}$ . In the setup given by Eq. (3), this operation is directly equivalent to increasing SLM area. However, naively using a lens to increase the size of an SLM also increases pixel size, resulting in a smaller field-of-view. Thus, like the eyebox in near-eye displays, depth variation suffers from a fundamental etendue tradeoff with field-of-view. As a result, on modern SLMs, a holographic projector cannot project patterns that significantly vary in depth without an excessively small FOV. For a $1920\times 1200$ resolution SLM with $8\mu \mathrm{m}$ pixel pitch, we find that projecting unique content spread $15\mathrm{cm}$ apart leads to a projector FOV of about $3.8^{\circ}$ . + +Thus, we need to expand etendue for a practical depth-varying projector. For simplicity, we opt for a static element, like a custom phase mask [2, 28] or lens array [8, 36]. In our simulations (Fig. 2(c), (d)), we find that a lens array preserves more contrast than a random phase mask [28] for depth-dependent content. Thus, we place a lens array into our optical system at the front focal plane of Lens 2, and move the SLM forward some distance $z_{\mathrm{array}}$ as shown in Fig. 3(b). Our etendue-enhanced forward model can then be written as: + +$$ +g _ {\text {e n h a n c e d}} (U, z) = \mathcal {P} (\mathcal {F} (\mathcal {M} (\mathcal {P} (U, z _ {\text {a r r a y}}))), z), \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{M}$ denotes the transformation imposed by the lens array. We can then find the best-matching SLM pattern for some target depth-varying pattern using Eq. (4). With an array with lens pitch $1.0\mathrm{mm} \times 1.4\mathrm{mm}$ and focal length $4.7\mathrm{mm}$ , we can expand FOV to about $15^{\circ}$ . We visualize the results in Fig. 4. + +Lens array effects In the context of near-eye displays, Monin et al. [36] showed that the spatial multiplexing performed by static étendue-expanding optics, like a lens array, reduces either output contrast or resolution. For depth-varying projectors, this spatial multiplexing additionally manifests itself in the form of a structured defocus pattern. Intuitively, a given output point only receives light from a subset of the SLM thanks to the multiplexing. Since the SLM controls the angular distribution of light, the defocus pattern will be structured according to the multiplexing of the SLM. While typically imperceptible in practice, the contrast of depth variation is reduced when compared to a larger SLM with equivalent étendue. These effects are visualized in the supplement. + +Calibrating the lens array In practice, aligning etendue-expanding optics can be a challenging process, as tiny axial ( $<1\mathrm{mm}$ ) and lateral misalignments ( $\approx$ 1 SLM pixel) can cause a drastic reduction in output quality (Fig. 5(a)). Existing approaches have typically reduced SLM pixel resolution and introduced precise alignment processes to mitigate these effects [2,28]. Additionally, optical aberrations further reduce quality [8], but past work has primarily ignored these effects, assuming ideal lenses and masks [2,8,28]. Such artifacts are exacerbated in low cost off-the-shelf optics, like the lens array we use in Sec. 4.1. + +![](images/cb3d38b9e19044e09d602989429fb137381fefd6a5f118854c6de798f03f3273.jpg) +Fig. 5: Calibrated lens array modulation. (a) Tiny array misalignments cause contrast loss and distortion, demonstrating the need for careful calibration. (b) We show a crop of the calibrated parameters from Eq. (8). $A_{1}$ learns the phase of the lenses, while $A_{2}$ seems to learn other distortions. + +In our work, we instead approximately align the lens array in the system, and then apply an optimization procedure to reconstruct the unknown lens array modulation $\mathcal{M}$ using a dataset of SLM patterns and real projections captured by a camera $z_{\mathrm{calib}}$ away. We can also simultaneously calibrate other non-idealities like SLM distortion and undiffracted light. Formally, this process is given by: + +$$ +\min _ {\substack {\mathcal {M}, A _ {\text {cam}}, A _ {\text {add}}, A _ {\text {SLM}}, \\ \mathcal {P} _ {z _ {\text {calib}}} ^ {\text {opt}}, \mathcal {P} _ {z _ {\text {array}}} ^ {\text {opt}}}} \quad \sum_ {k} \mathcal {L} \left(\mathcal {D} \left(| g _ {\text {calib}} (U _ {k}) | ^ {2}\right), I _ {k}\right), \tag{8} +$$ + +$$ +g _ {\mathrm {c a l i b}} (U) = \mathcal {P} \left(A _ {\mathrm {a d d}} + A _ {\mathrm {c a m}} \cdot \mathcal {F} \left(\mathcal {M} \left(\mathcal {P} _ {z _ {\mathrm {a r r a y}}} ^ {\mathrm {o p t}} (A _ {\mathrm {S L M}} \cdot U)\right)\right), z _ {\mathrm {c a l i b}}\right), +$$ + +where $U_{k}$ and $I_{k}$ are the corresponding SLM pattern and capture pair. $A_{\mathrm{cam}}$ $A_{\mathrm{SLM}}$ and $A_{\mathrm{add}}$ denote learnable complex modulations, and $\mathcal{P}_z^{\mathrm{opt}}$ denotes an opt-. imizable propagation kernel initialized with the kernel for propagating $z$ [16,23]. Inspired by the ABCD matrix for thick lenses, we represent $\mathcal{M}$ as an optizable multiplication, propagation and multiplication $\mathcal{M}(U) = A_2\cdot \mathcal{P}_{z_{\mathrm{thickness}}}^{\mathrm{opt}}(A_1\cdot U)$ where $z_{\mathrm{thickness}}$ is the estimated thickness of the lens array.

Our laser is a $530\mathrm{nm}$ Coherent Sapphire LPX. We use a Thorlabs Exodus HD-2 SLM, with $1920\times 1200$ resolution and $8\mu \mathrm{m}$ pitch. For etendue expansion, we use a Thorlabs PMMA Microlens Array (MLA1M), where each microlens has pitch $1.0\mathrm{mm}\times 1.4\mathrm{mm}$ and focal length $4.7\mathrm{mm}$ . Simulating each microlens without aliasing requires a resolution of $2.5\mu \mathrm{m}\times 1.78\mu \mathrm{m}$ , translating to an expansion in etendue by $3.2\times 4.5$ . We therefore simulated our system at $9600\times 6000$ with $1.6\mu \mathrm{m}$ pitch. We used a $75\mathrm{mm}$ achromatic doublet for Lens 1, and two $85\mathrm{mm}f / 1.4$ DSLR lenses for Lens 2 and a projection lens that magnifies the patterns into the scene. We use a beamsplitter to illuminate our reflective SLM along the optical axis. Using another beamsplitter, we colocate with the projector a UI-3240CP-NIR camera with a $16\mathrm{mm}f / 1.8$ lens. The captured scenes are between $0.4\mathrm{m}$ and $0.7\mathrm{m}$ away from the system. At $0.7\mathrm{m}$ , the projected pattern spans roughly $0.1\mathrm{m}\times 0.15\mathrm{m}$ . + +# 4.2 Applications + +Multi-plane projection Our projector can simultaneously project different content to multiple planes. As shown in Fig. 6(a), such a system could be used to potentially address defocus in a scene with multiple depths. In addition, it can compensate for radiometric falloff [14], equalizing brightness without blocking light like a traditional projector. + +Our system could also be used to enable novel user interfaces. For instance, projectors are being implemented into wearables for screenless computing [1], where users interact with the projection onto another object. As shown in Fig. 6(b), our system could be used to create a form of 3D depth-varying interface for such a wearable, by projecting a different button to different depths. Such a device could also be applied to multi-layered displays [3] for the formation of pseudo-3D content (Fig. 6(c)). We place a piece of translucent acrylic at one plane, and a white board at the other. Different content can be projected at each plane, both of which are visible to a viewer. Our device could also ensure that private content is only displayed on nearby objects, while different content is shown on farther objects that other people can see (Fig. 6(d)). + +We envision such a projector as a useful tool for artists and creatives (Fig. 6(e)). An artist could use such a device to show different content depending on the location of a reflecting object, in order to interactively tell a story. + +Depth estimation Holographic depth-varying content can also be used as a depth cue. Consider two patterns formed at two planes. In between these planes, the intermediate pattern may provide enough of a cue to disambiguate the exact location between these two planes. We show an example in Fig. 7(a), where an 'X' and 'O' are formed at two different planes. The pattern uniquely evolves between them with depth. We leverage this in the form of a simple depth recovery method, where we project different patterns at different planes, calibrate the intermediate patterns, and reconstruct depth from a camera image similar to [25,43]. + +Let $p_z$ be the projected pattern that appears at depth $z$ , and $i$ the captured image. Then, our goal is to find the $p_z$ seen at every camera pixel. This is generally a hard problem, especially for sharp gradients in albedo and depth. If we assume spatial smoothness, we can use graph cuts to recover depth [43]: + +$$ +E (z) = \sum_ {\mathbf {x}} D \left(z _ {\mathbf {x}}\right) + \lambda \sum_ {\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {x} ^ {\prime}} V _ {\mathbf {x}, \mathbf {x} ^ {\prime}} \left(z _ {\mathbf {x}}, z _ {\mathbf {x} ^ {\prime}}\right) \tag {9} +$$ + +where $z_{\mathbf{x}}$ is the depth estimate for pixel $\mathbf{x}$ , $D(\cdot)$ penalizes texture mismatch between $i$ and $p_z$ , $V_{\mathbf{x},\mathbf{x}'}$ penalizes variations in depth between neighboring pixels, and $\lambda$ is a weighting term. For $D(\cdot)$ between $i$ and $p_z$ , we run template matching on a small neighborhood around $\mathbf{x}$ using the normalized sum-of-squared differences. We can minimize $E(z)$ using any graph-cuts solver and estimate depth. + +Armed with this simple reconstruction algorithm, we can run more sophisticated procedures. For instance, instead of projecting all of the 'X's at one plane and 'O's at another, we can instead project them at different planes in a + +![](images/3d91f06f6b42ccbbfd8c865aa1152688d108f26eee28cdd7ccea040cfa30e78a.jpg) +Coarse recons.

The depth-varying pattern from our system can be used to recover depth when captured by a camera. (a) We plot the depth-varying pattern from our system when an 'X' and 'O' are projected at different planes. While there is a fair sim-to-real gap, the real-world pattern still significantly varies with depth. (b), (c) We show our simple depth reconstruction algorithm. We first project content at two planes spread far apart, to get a coarse estimate of depth. Once we have a rough estimate, we then move these two planes closer together, centered around the coarse depth, to get a finer depth measurement. + +spatially-varying fashion. For instance, if we have some prior that the left side of the scene is closer than the right side, we can place our 'X's and 'O's appropriately for each half, such that we get higher resolution for both sides. More concretely, consider the case where our projector can project content $I_{1}, \ldots, I_{n}$ at a planes $z_{1}, \ldots, z_{n}$ . Our depth-varying pattern is defined by projecting $o_{1}$ at one plane and $o_{2}$ at another. For each pixel $\mathbf{x}$ , we have some prior that its true depth $z_{t}$ follows the constraint $z_{i} < z_{t} < z_{j}$ , where $i$ and $j$ are two of the $n$ planes our system can project to. Then, for that pixel, we set $I_{i}(\mathbf{x}) = o_{1}(\mathbf{x})$ and $I_{j}(\mathbf{x}) = o_{2}(\mathbf{x})$ . We run this process for every pixel, and then plug the resulting $I_{1}, \ldots, I_{n}$ in Eq. (4) to determine the appropriate SLM pattern. We can then use the resulting capture in Eq. (9) to get a refined depth measurement. + +In Fig. 7(b), we demonstrate the above algorithm with $n = 5$ planes. We first capture a coarse measurement by placing $o_1$ and $o_2$ at $I_1$ and $I_5$ . With coarse depth, we determine $z_i$ and $z_j$ for each pixel, using which we generate a new pattern to get a more accurate depth measurement. We constrain $j = i + 2$ to handle the uncertainty of the previous measurement. In Fig. 7(c), we apply this procedure to a test scene, where the refined measurement reduces error. In Fig. 8, instead of relying on an initial coarse capture, we iteratively apply our methodology to a moving scene, where one object moves towards the system while the other object moves away. $z_i$ and $z_j$ shift as they move. + +![](images/89a86a921ec0ff07f8eb6b3e84aef311526460c3c2a7b577dabea1b181fdff52.jpg) +Fig. 8: Adapting the depth-varying pattern for moving objects. Instead of using a coarse capture, we can use a previous depth estimate in the case of two moving objects. The left object moves towards the projector, while the right object moves away. Each object is captured with a different set of two planes, which is adjusted as the objects move. The rightmost column illustrates these planes. + +![](images/d155e08f4dbbb12ecbec690bb50d17066b7264ecb96190f97874c3fe3a707b59.jpg) + +![](images/54c23460ce2d4d0dcbc7cbb9282442633674bc4b224529b3bd5b26d5c2a448cf.jpg) + +![](images/dc80df99faf6ba617a977d0ac095e5534b17029964af534e7b4725b9504aa42b.jpg) + +![](images/5ef5995a73239c728b9e89e8121927b5b9b8e22fd2ebd319bcd41629e029a0dc.jpg) + +![](images/db77c589e17d44cf87fcc0d91c62eaa3b03b63170d7eca905181b629cd090d5a.jpg) +(a) Two simultaneous light curtains + +![](images/7f5dea6f7b4bd8d3c0e265b1d4ccd91534301531b17ed5a934a1afb03fac15a3.jpg) +Fig. 9: Using depth-varying patterns to form coarse light curtains. In (a), we form a closer light curtain (red) and a farther planar curtain (blue). Our system is able to disambiguate which curtain is intersected with. In (b), we use our system to detect disturbances in an object. When the object shifts axially, a traditional capture yields little information, but our depth-varying texture reveals a large change. + +![](images/4b276a9c024d55af604d8e0dcc8c62bc222230d7dd0bd71190941bfd59efdc67.jpg) + +![](images/94f885100b26cf9fdb3ab1c4113110a852c57e150e6b27616442fc125178c040.jpg) +(b) Disturbance detection + +![](images/cd18afc0fcc7d7e18b7ebf1ac57287c3eaf069eaadb04feb79ab7ed5b2f9576b.jpg) + +![](images/cfd8a2f35283614c0576425ff783a85503ee8da497b56f1d5422d10b3e7290c4.jpg) + +Programmable light curtains Our depth-varying patterns can also be used to form programmable light curtains around objects [4, 13, 48, 49, 51]. To create a light curtain, we first place a calibration object in the scene, and capture an image of that object with a depth-varying pattern projected onto it. To determine if an object intersects the curtain, we take the difference between the calibrated capture and the current capture, and apply an activation threshold. We bilateral filter all images to reduce the effect of speckle. Note that unlike a traditional triangulation light curtain [4, 13, 48, 49, 51], this procedure does not require stereo calibration or a baseline, and complex, multi-layer curtains can be easily formed with a single SLM pattern. In addition, this approach does not require the careful synchronization of complex camera optics that typical devices require. Furthermore, our light curtains are visible to the naked eye, unlike past approaches that rely on a scanning camera. This could potentially enable new applications like augmented sculpting, where an artist could directly identify if they carved an object correctly by looking at the texture formed on the object. + +We show simple examples of our curtains in Fig. 9. Our system can project two planar curtains simultaneously, and detect when two cylinders intersect these curtains. Our system can also be applied to disturbance detection [13]. The change in projected patterns provides a strong cue as to when objects are moved. + +Depth cue comparison Using geometric optics approximations (derivation in the supplement), we can estimate the resolution of our holographic depth variation cue to be roughly equivalent to a stereo baseline of $i_d \tan \theta_p$ , where $\frac{1}{i_d} = \frac{1}{f_p} - \frac{1}{d}$ and $\sin \theta_p = \frac{\delta N}{2f_2}$ . $f_2$ and $f_p$ are the focal lengths of Lens 2 and the projection lens, and $d$ is the target distance. For example, for a point $0.5\mathrm{m}$ away, the effective baseline of our prototype is $\approx 9\mathrm{mm}$ . + +While our holographic system may have similar resolution to a small-baseline triangulation system, it has certain theoretical strengths when compared to other active sensing approaches. For one, analogous to depth-from-defocus, this cue is likely more robust to occlusions than a similar baseline stereo system [40]. Furthermore, structured light systems struggle with a tradeoff between depth-of-field and brightness — a large aperture projector lens is desired so that output patterns are bright and legible under ambient light, but this simultaneously reduces projector depth-of-field and therefore resolution for scenes with a variety of depths. In contrast, our cue's resolution fundamentally increases with larger aperture, avoiding this tradeoff. Time-of-flight does not have depth-of-field challenges, but it lacks the depth resolution in settings like microscopy where the height profiles of tiny objects are required [22]. Our cue has no such limitation, as it will have high resolution for such close-by objects. + +More generally, this holographic cue is complementary to other depth cues, and can directly be used alongside them. Given that holographic projectors are being applied in structured light [13, 47] and CWTOF [14], our holographic depth cue could be potentially implemented in future holographic systems for these tasks as-is, and be combined with these cues in the same capture to create improved fused measurements. For instance, CWTOF suffers a tradeoff between ambiguous range and depth resolution. If the CWTOF sensor also emits a depth-dependent pattern, the holographic cues could be used to estimate a coarse depth without any ambiguous range, which CWTOF super-resolves using sinusoids with a larger ambiguous range but finer depth resolution. Thus, the ambiguity of CWTOF is decreased without impacting resolution or framerate. In the context of structured light, projecting depth-dependent structured light patterns could ensure meaningful depth can still be recovered under defocus. + +# 5 Limitations + +In practice, a number of drawbacks arise when using holography. For one, in order to accurately model coherent light transport through our lens array, we need to simulate propagation at $9600 \times 6000$ pixels. Operating at such high resolution has heavy memory and compute requirements — our NVIDIA RTX 3090 can recover + +just 5 depth targets at a time with Eq. (4). One could also apply a non-iterative approach to reduce computation [32, 47], at the cost of pattern quality. + +Furthermore, unavoidable noise-like artifacts called speckle appear in the projections, reducing contrast and sharpness. Exacerbating these effects, our proposed approach for depth sensing and light curtains performs best with a camera with little defocus. However, reducing the aperture of the camera lens to increase depth-of-field can increase speckle. We posit that one cause is because the actual light propagation in the system is much more complicated than our simple model in Eq. (4). Properly accounting for more complex effects via pupil-aware [9, 41] and neural-enhanced [12, 16, 17, 23, 39] modeling could potentially close this sim-to-real gap. Another potential cause is insufficient degrees of freedom for forming a desired depth-varying target. Possible solutions include temporally-multiplexing SLM patterns at the cost of frame rate [16] or multiple SLMs and sources at the cost of extra system complexity [27]. + +In general, even with the lens array, the depth variation produced by our projector is still limited. In our experiments, two target planes need to be separated by $5\mathrm{mm}$ before the projector lens in order to reliably project unique content. Blur begins to appear with less separation and more target planes. However, temporal multiplexing [29, 53] could help distinguish patterns at different depths, specific target patterns more amenable to propagation could be easier to resolve, and better expansion or future high-resolution SLMs could greatly increase etendue. + +# 6 Conclusion and future work + +In our work, we leverage a holographic projector to create depth-varying patterns. To enhance this functionality, we place an etendue-expanding lens array into the system, and introduce a novel calibration method for it. With our prototype, we demonstrate novel applications that leverage depth-varying patterns. We show that it can be potentially useful for future wearables and entertainment as well as computer vision tasks like depth sensing and light curtains. + +There are many future directions. For one, there is significant room for improvement in closing the simulation-to-real gap, as mentioned in Sec. 5. Properly integrating neural models that can capture the non-idealities that a simpler theoretical model cannot could significantly improve pattern quality [12,16,17,23,39]. Alternatively, time multiplexing could be integrated to reduce speckle effects and crosstalk between different depths [16,29,53]. + +The etendue-expanding lens array is also a general purpose optic. It is likely that a custom scattering mask tailored to the depth-varying task of interest could improve performance [2], e.g. a phase mask optimized for depth sensing. Furthermore, the depth recovery pattern and algorithm discussed in Sec. 4.2 are extremely simple, and do not make full usage of the programmability of our proposed setup. It is highly probable that with further engineering, such as a deep learning-based end-to-end approach [54], the quality of depth measurements will be significantly improved with better illumination and reconstruction. + +# Acknowledgements + +We thank Benjamin Attal, Shree Nayar, and Gurunandan Krishnan for the helpful discussions, and Nancy Pollard, Srinivasa Narasimhan and Arkadeep Narayan Chaudhury for their feedback on the paper.

Temporal multiplexing can improve the degrees of freedom [21, 31], but at the cost of lower frameres, increased bandwidth requirements and the need for multiple spatial-light modulators (SLMs). Furthermore, light is inherently blocked to form desired patterns, reducing output brightness. Another possibility is multiple overlapping projectors focused at different depths [5, 37], but such systems again require multiple SLMs, increasing cost and form factor. Alternatively, a fast focus-tunable lens that is synchronized with a high-speed projector [52, 55] could be used to temporally multiplex patterns focused at different depths. While theoretically effective, current focus-tunable lenses are limited in aperture size, increasing crosstalk between different depths (Fig. 2(b)).

In fact, forming unique content at two depths requires that these depths are separated on the order of meters [56], making the desired applications impractical on holographic systems. In our experiments on a typical SLM, we find that achieving a useful amount of depth variation necessitates a large focal length projector lens, which results in a tiny field-of-view. We derive that this relationship between depth variation and field-of-view is fundamentally connected to the *etendue* of a holographic projector — a measure of light spread over area and angle. Inspired by research that tries to tackle the field-of-view and eyebox tradeoff of near-eye displays [2,8,28,30,36], we introduce a lens array into the optical path of a typical holographic projector to increase depth variation, enabling far more complex patterns than past work [56]. We develop a novel optimization-driven calibration for this optic, that tackles challenges like misalignment and aberration that past approaches ignore. With these modifications, we realize a practical, high-resolution programmable depth-varying projector, that is capable of achieving all of the aforementioned applications in a single setup." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 147, + 343, + 320, + 354 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 147, + 343, + 320, + 354 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 147, + 343, + 320, + 354 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "The contributions of this work include:" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 361, + 479, + 444 + ], + "type": "list", + "angle": 0, + "index": 9, + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 361, + 479, + 384 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 361, + 479, + 384 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 361, + 479, + 384 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "- a proof-of-concept system for a depth-varying holographic projector, with étendue expanded by a lens array;" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 385, + 453, + 396 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 385, + 453, + 396 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 385, + 453, + 396 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "- an optimization-driven calibration process for this étendue expander;" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 397, + 479, + 420 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 397, + 479, + 420 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 397, + 479, + 420 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "- a demonstration of multi-plane projection for 3D interfaces, privacy, multi-layer displays, defocus compensation and artistic applications; and" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 421, + 479, + 444 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 421, + 479, + 444 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 138, + 421, + 479, + 444 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "- an exploration of holographic depth-varying projection as a depth cue, for which we show techniques for depth capture and light curtains." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + } + ], + "sub_type": "text" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 461, + 234, + 474 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 461, + 234, + 474 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 461, + 234, + 474 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "2 Related work" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 10 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 481, + 629 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 481, + 629 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 486, + 481, + 629 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Historically, holographic projectors have primarily been explored for their potential compact form factor [7,34,35,46], as they can create a large field-of-view without the need for a lens.

In short, maximizing the area that the human eye can move and see an image from a holographic display minimizes the size of that image and vice versa, limiting the practicality of holographic near-eye displays. A number of approaches have been proposed to increase the etendue of near-eye displays. In one line of work, multiple laser sources are time-multiplexed to stitch together a larger FOV [30], but such an approach requires an extremely fast SLM which is not currently readily available [36]. Instead, recent work has focused on adding static high-resolution phase masks into the optical path, that effectively spatially multiplex the SLM over a larger FOV [2,8,28,36].

In the setup given by Eq. (3), this operation is directly equivalent to increasing SLM area. However, naively using a lens to increase the size of an SLM also increases pixel size, resulting in a smaller field-of-view. Thus, like the eyebox in near-eye displays, depth variation suffers from a fundamental etendue tradeoff with field-of-view.

Intuitively, a given output point only receives light from a subset of the SLM thanks to the multiplexing. Since the SLM controls the angular distribution of light, the defocus pattern will be structured according to the multiplexing of the SLM.

If the CWTOF sensor also emits a depth-dependent pattern, the holographic cues could be used to estimate a coarse depth without any ambiguous range, which CWTOF super-resolves using sinusoids with a larger ambiguous range but finer depth resolution. Thus, the ambiguity of CWTOF is decreased without impacting resolution or framerate. In the context of structured light, projecting depth-dependent structured light patterns could ensure meaningful depth can still be recovered under defocus." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 590, + 222, + 602 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 590, + 222, + 602 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 590, + 222, + 602 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "5 Limitations" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 617, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 617, + 482, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 617, + 482, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In practice, a number of drawbacks arise when using holography.

Similarly, some species of surface-feeding fish have eyes with horizontal acute zones that allow them to see prey both above and below the water even while entirely submerged by taking advantage of the refractive index of water through their positioning.

A de facto standard approach in solving computer vision tasks is to use a common high-resolution camera and choose its placement on an agent based on human intuition. On the other hand, extremely simple and well-designed visual sensors found throughout nature allow many organisms to exhibit diverse, complex behaviors. In this work, motivated by these examples, we raise the following questions: + +1. How effective simple visual sensors are in solving vision tasks? +2. What role does their design play in their effectiveness? + +We explore simple sensors with resolutions as low as one-by-one pixel, representing a single photoreceptor. First, we demonstrate that just a few photoreceptors can be enough to solve different vision tasks, such as visual navigation and continuous control, reasonably well, i.e., with the performance significantly better than that of a blind agent and comparable to a high-resolution camera. Second, we show that the design of these simple visual sensors plays a crucial role in their ability to provide useful information and successfully solve these tasks. To find a well-performing design, we present a computational design optimization algorithm and evaluate its effectiveness across different tasks and domains, showing promising results. Finally, we conduct a human survey to evaluate the effectiveness of intuitive designs engineered manually by humans, showing that the computationally found design is among the best designs in most cases. + +# 1 Introduction + +Visual sensors provide necessary information about the surrounding world to enable visual perception and problem-solving. A wide variety of visual sensors are found throughout nature [5, 11, 28], ranging from complex, lens-based eyes that perceive fine-grained signals to extremely simple ones, consisting of only + +![](images/18e35c8d65252ad86b1c9f49c6eb525c3ef0d5e88c0179434696bb148e8d725a.jpg) +Fig. 1: Extremely simple photoreceptor sensors are effective in solving different vision tasks, and approach the performance of a complex camera sensor. Left: We use photoreceptor sensors with a resolution as low as $1 \times 1$ , whose dimensionality is 16384 times lower than that of a $128 \times 128$ camera sensor (for visualization purposes, the displayed grid underestimates this factor). Center: An agent trained to solve a visual navigation task using low-resolution sensors performs much better than a blind agent. In this case, the performance saturates at the resolution of $16 \times 16 - \text{far less}$ than the resolution of an ordinary camera. Right: We find that even a handful of well-placed photoreceptors can provide sufficient information to solve different vision tasks with performance significantly higher than a blind agent and similar to a more complex camera sensor. Our evaluation suite consists of eight vision-based active tasks, including visual navigation using scans of real buildings from the MatterPort3D dataset [6] and continuous control tasks from the DeepMind Control suite [55]. + +a few photoreceptors each capturing unfocused light from a given field of view resulting in a low-dimensional visual signal. + +In addition to the sensor's type, its position and orientation are important to its effectiveness. Strategic placement of even the simplest sensors can enable complex behaviors such as obstacle avoidance, detection of coarse landmarks, and even some forms of predator avoidance [28]. For example, in dragonflies, an upward-facing visual acute zone, i.e., an area with high photoreceptor density, is hypothesized to allow more efficient prey detection by positioning it against the sky instead of a cluttered foliage background. Similarly, some species of surface-feeding fish have eyes with horizontal acute zones that allow them to see prey both above and below the water even while entirely submerged by taking advantage of the refractive index of water through their positioning. This wide variety of designs is believed to emerge as evolutionary adaptations to an animal's specific morphology and the ecology in which it lives [28]. + +In computer vision, on the other hand, the design of visual sensors is mainly represented by one side of the spectrum, namely, complex, high-resolution camera sensors. Moreover, most effort is spent on algorithmic improvements, leaving sensor design to human intuition. + +This paper explores the other side of the spectrum and employs extremely simple visual sensors. In particular, we use sensors with a resolution as low as one pixel, representing a single photoreceptor1. One can intuitively think of this as a camera with a $1 \times 1$ resolution. We demonstrate that just a few well-designed, i.e., strategically placed and oriented, photoreceptors can provide sufficient infor + +mation to solve different active vision tasks such as visual navigation, continuous control, and locomotion with a performance much higher than that of a blind agent and approaching that of a complex camera sensor (see Fig. 1-right). + +Similar to findings in nature, when using simple photoreceptors, we find that designing the sensors' placement, orientation, and field of view (FoV) is essential in achieving optimal performance, and an uninformed (random) design can result in a performance close to that of a blind agent without access to any visual signal. To find well-performing designs, we present a computational design optimization method that tailors sensors' design to a given agent, environment, and task at hand. We show promising results of its effectiveness in improving initial random designs in various domains and allowing us to approach the performance of the high-resolution camera sensor. Finally, to estimate whether humans can devise performant designs intuitively, we conduct a human survey to collect human intuitive designs and find that computational designs are among the best designs in most cases. + +# 2 Related Work + +Camera Design Optimization. This line of work aims at optimizing camera parameters such as lens configuration [4,7,22,46,52], camera placement [21,25,41] and other [38,58,59,66] to improve downstream performance. Most of these approaches consider static tasks such as image restoration or depth estimation with a differentiable loss function, which, combined with a differentiable renderer [46,58,62], enable using gradient optimization methods for design optimization. In this work, we focus on active vision tasks, where a non-differentiable reward function defines the downstream performance. Most similar, [8] learns an active camera that rotates during the episode but has a limited design space. In contrast, we explore the design of extremely simple photoreceptor sensors in a less constrained design space. + +Alternative Visual Sensors. In addition to RGB camera sensors, prior work in robotics and visual sensing has also made use of time-of-flight sensors [29], LIDARs, and event cameras. These sensors usually produce high-resolution images and have been used in robust 3D mapping and navigation [15, 31, 35, 40] and obstacle avoidance at high speeds [14, 67]. In contrast, we explore extremely simple photoreceptor sensors that provide only sparse signals and can be made much smaller in size compared to other sensors. + +Computational Design of Robot Morphology. The design of robot body morphologies is a well-explored topic compared to sensory design. Early approaches to co-designing the form, actuators, and/or controllers are based on evolutionary algorithms [9, 10, 20, 45] and were even used to build robots from organic matter [26, 27]. More recent works leverage differentiable simulators to develop more efficient optimization methods [17, 34, 36, 42, 49-51, 61] and/or use learning-based approaches to co-design the robot's morphology and controller [43, 65, 69, 70]. On the other hand, the robots' sensory design opti + +![](images/479a868ae01ffeac7ea66d7ef402d8f2fc752059f84f92d94b4d9bf6de9386ee.jpg) +Fig. 2: Simple photoreceptor sensor for active vision tasks. Left: The design space of visual sensors (PR, $B \times B$ grid of PRs, or camera). We vary the extrinsic (position, constrained to the agent's body, and orientation) and intrinsic (field of view) parameters for each sensor. Center: We implement the PR sensor computationally by rendering the corresponding camera view (e.g., using a pinhole camera model) with the corresponding design parameters and averaging the signal spatially. For a grid of PRs, we split an image into equal patches and average each spatially to get the corresponding $B^2$ observations. This model can be applied in any common simulator with a rendering engine. Right: Finally, we pass observations from all sensors (along with GPS+Compass for navigation tasks) through a Transformer encoder to predict the action $a$ that optimizes a task-specific reward function. + +![](images/904ba2dd4bc06718adca896527d772b7541b34c876a4c2353df3e59443dfb6a4.jpg) + +![](images/c32667a5949111baaac9c04c6b963a5f48df5f7f20f0cf62676b196b97f68bc8.jpg) + +mization is relatively under-explored, with [48] representing an early attempt to design tactile sensors of a soft robot. + +ML-Based Discovery. Recently, in many fields, machine learning-based search methods proved useful for discovering new optimal designs, e.g., novel drugs [23,39], catalysts [71,72] or [54]. These methods usually rely on and benefit from large amounts of data to train a model of the underlying process and predict the desired properties of novel designs. In contrast, our case of designing visual sensors has no such dataset readily available. We, therefore, rely on exploring the design space using simulation to estimate the performance of different designs. + +Zero-Order Optimization Zero-order optimization methods aim to optimize an unknown function that can only be evaluated at proposed points and has no other available information, such as gradients [18, 19, 37, 47, 64]. Our design optimization problem for visual sensors, similar to other design optimization problems, falls into this category as no gradients of performance w.r.t. the design are available. Most similar to our work is [69], which also uses a joint design-control optimization method, applying it to the robot's morphology design. In contrast, we apply it to the problem of designing visual sensors and consider more challenging tasks of visual navigation using scans of real-world buildings. + +# 3 A Simple Photoreceptor Sensor + +This section defines a photoreceptor sensor (PR), an example of a simple visual sensor explored in this work. First, we present the employed computational + +model of the PR. Then, we describe the studied design space of these visual sensors. Finally, since no prior work has explored the usage and design of these sensors, we describe three types of design considered in this work: random, computational via design optimization, and intuitive. + +# 3.1 Computational Model of a Photoreceptor + +We define a photoreceptor (PR) as a visual sensor located at a specific point in space that integrates all incoming light from a specific field of view. Unlike complex, lens-based camera sensors, a PR does not produce a high-resolution image but only provides a low-dimensional signal of the average light intensity (for each color channel). An analogy from nature is a single photoreceptor placed into a pigment tube, allowing light only from a given direction and field of view. In practice, such a sensor can be realized with a photodiode [13] and a casing that restricts its field of view. The lensless compound eye realized by Kogos et al. [24] is analogous to a grid of PR sensors introduced below. Note that our framework, including the design optimization method in Sec. 5, is agnostic to the specific choice of a visual sensor and can work with any sensor that can be implemented in a simulator (e.g., see an optimized camera design in Tab. 1). + +We implement the PR sensor computationally by averaging pixel values of the pinhole camera image (see Fig. 2-Center). This approach allows us to model PRs in any simulator that provides a rendering engine without additional implementation costs. Specifically, to read the PR signal $x$ with given extrinsic (position and orientation) and intrinsic (the field of view) parameters, we spawn a camera with the same parameters and render its corresponding image view $I \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times H \times W}$ . Then, we average its signal along the spatial dimension to get the final values $x^c = \frac{1}{HW} \sum_{i,j} I_p^c$ , $x \in \mathbb{R}^3$ , where $c \in \{1,2,3\}$ stands for a channel and $p$ for the spatial pixel coordinate. In addition to a single PR, we consider simple sensors arranged in a grid of PRs of size $B \times B$ ( $B \leq 8$ , in our experiments) that share the same position but have different adjacent fields of view. We implement such a grid by splitting the image into $B^2$ patches and averaging each of them spatially. A single grid sensor enables the extraction of useful information (e.g., direction of motion) and makes a useful building block for a simple visual system. Moreover, using a grid instead of $B^2$ independent PRs significantly reduces rendering costs, requiring rendering only a single image instead of $B^2$ images. + +# 3.2 Design of Visual Sensors + +Design Space. We associate each sensor with its 7-dimensional design parameter vector $\theta_{i} = [\mathbf{x}_{i},\mathbf{y}_{i},\mathbf{z}_{i},\mathrm{yaw}_{i},\mathrm{pitch}_{i},\mathrm{roll}_{i},\mathrm{fov}_{i}]$ , where $(\mathbf{x}_i,\mathbf{y}_i,\mathbf{z}_i)\in \mathbb{R}^3$ is the position in space, which we constrain to be on the agent's body, $(\mathrm{yaw}_i,\mathrm{pitch}_i,\mathrm{roll}_i)\in [0,2\pi ]^2$ is the orientation, and $\mathrm{fov}_i\in [0,180]$ is the field of view. See Fig. 2-Left for the visualization. In our experiments, we use $K\in \{2,4,8\}$ sensors represented by a single PR (a $1\times 1$ sensor) or a grid of PRs of sizes $4\times 4$ and $8\times 8$ . This results in a total of $KB^{2}$ PRs (ranging from 2 to 256 in our experiments) + +and visual observations $\{x_{kj}\}_{k,j = 1,1}^{K,B^2}$ . We also explore different camera designs, in which case we use a single sensor and change its parameters $\theta$ . + +Design Types. The design choice plays a crucial role in the agent's overall performance (e.g., a navigation agent, see Fig. 6). In this work, we explore the following three approaches to instantiating the design of a visual sensor: + +Random design corresponds to sampling $\theta$ randomly from the design space. It sets a baseline for a computational design method, which should result in more performant designs (in tasks where they exist in the design space.) + +Computational design tailors the design parameters to a specific task, agent's morphology, and environment, optimizing the corresponding performance of the agent. We introduce such computational design optimization method in Sec. 5. + +Intuitive design corresponds to a design devised intuitively by a human. Since this design has no obvious choice, we perform a human survey, asking participants to devise the best-performing design for a given task and agent. We describe the survey and discuss our findings on the effectiveness of human intuition compared to computational design in Sec. 5.4. + +# 4 Simple Photoreceptors are Effective Visual Sensors + +In this section, we study the effectiveness of simple photoreceptors visual sensors in solving different active vision tasks. We show that in most cases, an agent equipped with (well-designed) PR sensors significantly outperforms a blind agent without access to any visual signal and achieves performance close to that of an agent with a high-resolution camera sensor. + +# 4.1 Experimental Setting + +For our experiments, we use two visual navigation tasks using the Habitat [53] simulator with scans of real apartments from the Matterport3D [6] dataset and continuous control tasks from the DeepMind Control (DMC) Suite [56]. Below, we provide a brief description of the experimental setting. For more detailed information, please refer to Supplementary Material. + +Reinforcement learning background. We use reinforcement learning to solve active tasks in the partially observable Markov decision process setting. At each state, $s_t$ , an RL agent applies an action $a_t$ , transitions into the next state $s_{t+1}$ according to the decision process, and receives a reward $r_t$ . The goal of the agent is to maximize the discounted expected reward $\mathbb{E}_{\pi} \sum_{t=1}^{T} \gamma^t r_t$ . Importantly, the agent receives only a partial observation $o_t$ (e.g., observation from PR sensors) of the state and implements the control policy as $\pi(a_t | o_t)$ . We use the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) [44] algorithm for training. + +Navigation in Habitat. We train navigation agents for PointGoalNav and TargetNav tasks in 3D replicas of real houses from the Matterport3D dataset [6] using the Habitat simulator [53]. The agent is randomly spawned in an environment and has access to an egocentric RGB view and its current position (coordinate) and orientation through the GPS+Compass sensor. In PointGoalNav, the + +agent needs to navigate to a target coordinate, and we use SPL (Success weighted by Path Length) [2] to measure its performance. In contrast, in TargetNav, the agent needs to navigate to a green sphere that is randomly placed in the house at a height of $1.5\mathrm{m}$ from the floor. This task, therefore, requires exploration and target identification by design. We measure the performance of an agent using the success rate, i.e., whether or not it finds the target sphere. + +Continuous Control in DMC. We train continuous control agents using the MuJoCo simulator [57] on the DeepMind Control (DMC) benchmark [56]. DMC provides a variety of continuous control tasks, including reaching, manipulation, and locomotion. We use the following tasks: Reacher:Hard, Walker:Stand, Walker:Walk, Walker:Run, Finger:Spin, and Finger:Turn Easy (see Supplementary Material for detailed tasks description.) Importantly, we solve these tasks using only visual observations from either photoreceptors or a camera. + +Architecture. Fig. 2-right illustrates our control policy architecture. We model the policy $\pi_w(a_t\mid o_t)$ using a simple three-layer Transformer [60] backbone that encodes the current observation $o_t$ from a visual sensor, camera or PRs, and GPS+Compass for navigation, and a small MLP that predicts the action $a_t$ . For the PR-based policy, we use $\{[x_{kj},\theta_k,e_j]\}_{kj}$ as input, where $\theta_k$ is the design vector of the $k^{\mathrm{th}}$ grid sensor, and $e_j$ is the trainable positional embedding of the $j^{\mathrm{th}}$ PR in the grid. For the camera-based policy, similar to ViT [12], we use $\{[\overline{x}_{ij},\theta ,e_{ij}]\}_{ij}$ as an input, where $\overline{x}_{ij}$ are flattened $16\times 16$ image patches and $e_{ij}$ their corresponding positional embeddings. Since we use a single camera, one can omit the design $\theta$ . We keep it for consistency as we use it in the design optimization method to condition the policy on the current design (see Sec. 5.2.) + +Control Baselines. We employ the following two control baselines to estimate the effectiveness of the PR sensor. + +The intelligent blind agent does not receive any visual signal and shows what performance can be achieved by only utilizing the structure of the problem and environment. It does not receive any input in DMC and receives only GPS+Compass in both navigation tasks. + +The camera agent receives a high-resolution image signal from a camera. This baseline provides a comparison to a de facto standard in solving (active) vision tasks. For the navigation tasks, we use the resolution of $128 \times 128$ and the found computational design for the camera sensor as we found it to perform better than the default intuitive design in the Habitat simulator in both tasks (see Tab. 1 and Sec. 5.3). For DMC tasks, we choose the best-performing design between the 3rd-person view camera with the resolution of $84 \times 84$ (standard choice in the literature [30, 55, 68]) and an egocentric camera placed intuitively (e.g., forward-looking camera on the torso for the walker agent), which we also find to perform better in some cases. For a fair comparison, we also use a convolutional architecture similar to [55], which we found to perform better. + +# 4.2 Photoreceptors Achieve Performance Close to a Camera + +Visual Navigation. Fig. 3 shows that even a simple visual sensor with two $4 \times 4$ PR grids (32 PRs) allows the corresponding agents to solve both navigation + +![](images/1549e97905201f0818166a4c0a093a12faa1f0c7d8ca5eba73d833060c8da780.jpg) +Fig. 3: Left: Photoreceptors are effective visual sensors for navigation tasks. We compare the performance of agents trained with different visual sensors - a varied number of photoreceptors, a camera, or no visual sensor (intelligent blind) - on visual navigation tasks. When scaling the number of PRs, we use configurations of $K \in \{2,4\}$ grids of sizes $4 \times 4$ and $8 \times 8$ . In all cases, we report the best design found by our design optimization method, including the camera design (see Sec. 5.) For the camera baseline, we report performances when using the same shallow 3-layer Transformer encoder as for PRs and the ResNet-50 backbone, a default choice in the literature ("gold standard"), for a fair comparison. Even with a handful of photoreceptors, PR agents significantly outperform blind agents and achieve performance close to or better than camera agents with a comparable shallow architecture. Right: Computational PR designs. We visualize the best-performing PR designs for PointGoalNav (left) and TargetNav (right) found by the proposed design optimization method (see Sec. 5.) Both designs contain a total of 128 PRs in the configuration of $K = 2$ grids of size $8 \times 8$ . The width of each cone corresponds to its field of view, and the green arrow to its orientation. While these designs might appear unintuitively irregular, they both achieve high performance, as seen in the left figure, and improve upon the random design (see Fig. 7). In addition, Fig. 6 shows that a random, uninformed design statistically does not lead to similarly high performance. Therefore, there is a specific structure to this design, albeit hard to understand intuitively. + +tasks significantly better than the intelligent blind agent, which does not have any visual signal. Further, the PR agents perform similarly to the camera agents when using the same (shallow) 3-layer Transformer encoder while having a visual signal bandwidth of only $\approx 1\%$ of that of the $128\times 128$ camera sensor. We also show that PR agents with the shallow architecture perform comparable to the "gold standard" camera agent with the ResNet-50 encoder, a default choice in literature [63]. + +Fig. 4 shows exemplar trajectories for each type of agent on each task. For the PointGoalNav task, where the target position is known, and the main challenge is to navigate to it efficiently, we find that the PR agent follows more optimal trajectories (higher SPL) and effectively uses the visual signal to avoid collisions similar to the camera agent. In the TargetNav task, where, on the other hand, the target's position is unknown and can only be identified visually, it is important to explore a scene efficiently. Fig. 4-right shows that both the PR and camera agents explore the scene more efficiently and achieve a much higher success rate than the blind agent. + +![](images/9523be32041e4981c48fa936aea523fdd47b587d4a81664cbcc48caaa0b319b6.jpg) +Fig. 4: Left: In PointGoalNav, photoreceptors enable collision avoidance and choose efficient trajectories. For each agent, we plot the trajectories from two episodes in unseen test scenes. The red dots denote actions that result in a collision. We find that the PR agent can avoid collisions and choose an efficient trajectory similar to that of the camera agent. Right: In TargetNav, photoreceptors enable efficient exploration and target detection. We plot 50 trajectories for each agent and an unseen test scene. PR agents are able to explore novel scenes efficiently (as indicated by the spread of dark points representing early steps in the episode compared to the blind agent) and successfully find the target in most cases, approaching the performance of the camera agent. + +Continuous Control in DMC. Fig. 5 demonstrates that for most of the considered tasks, an agent with a few $1 \times 1$ PRs significantly outperforms the blind agent and performs closely to the camera agent. We note that, in general, the camera agent was shown to achieve higher performance by, for example, utilizing more specialized and tuned reinforcement learning algorithms [68], data augmentation techniques [30], and/or training for more steps [55]. In contrast, we employ a standard PPO [44] algorithm with a lower number of steps (5x) compared to [55]. However, PR agents achieve reasonably good performance even compared to the maximum possible reward of 1000. In addition, we find that, for example, a longer training of the agent with four $1 \times 1$ PRs on the Walker:Walk task can achieve the reward of 930, suggesting that the performance of PR agents can also be further improved by more specialized learning algorithm and/or longer training. + +# 5 Visual Sensors Design Optimization + +Photoreceptors can be effective visual sensors, as the previous section shows. However, how does one design these visual sensors to provide the most useful information for a given task, environment, and agent's morphology? In this section, we first show that design choice is essential to achieving good performance. Then, we introduce a computational design optimization method that tailors the design to a given agent, task, and environment, showing promising results in improving an initial design guess across multiple tasks. Finally, we perform a + +![](images/7e36f7bd6843d440d0bc2ef32ec1fd40e363d7da3c9734e2cb5b2bf9a96f7d35.jpg) +Fig.5: Simple photoreceptor sensors lead to high performance similar to that of the camera sensor in most tasks from the DeepMind Control suite. We show the reward achieved by agents equipped with photoreceptors, a camera, and no visual sensor (intelligent blind). For all tasks, the maximum possible reward is 1000. We use $K \in \{2,4,8\}$ photoreceptor sensors of resolution $1 \times 1$ (except for the Reacher:Hard task where we found four PR sensors already achieving close-to-maximum performance). We choose the best-performing design for each PR configuration among random and computational designs (the computational design is the best in most cases; see Fig. 7 for comparison). For the camera sensor, we chose the best-performing design between the third-person view, a de facto standard design in literature, and an intuitive egocentric camera, which we found to perform better in some cases. We find that in most tasks just a few PRs significantly outperform the blind agent and perform on par with the camera sensor. + +human survey to estimate the performance of an intuitive design, finding that the computational design is among the best designs. + +# 5.1 Design is Important for the Effectiveness of Photoreceptors + +How does the design of photoreceptors influence the final agent's performance? Fig. 6 shows that the performance of a poor design can drop drastically compared to the best (found) design for the corresponding task, with some designs resulting in performance similar to that of a blind agent, suggesting that the visual signal does not provide any useful information in these cases. This signifies the importance of having a design optimization algorithm to find performant designs automatically. + +# 5.2 Computational Design via Joint Optimization + +The design $\theta$ of the visual sensor(s), either PRs or camera, defines what observation the agent receives at each step, i.e., $o_{t} \triangleq o_{t}(\theta)$ and what design-specific control policy $\pi_w \triangleq \pi_w^\theta$ with what performance will be learned. To find the best design $\theta^*$ , one needs to find the design that leads to training the best-performing control policy, resulting in a bi-level optimization problem $\max_{\theta} \max_{w} \mathbb{E}_{\pi_w} \sum_t \gamma^t r_t$ . However, training the design-specific policy $\pi_w^\theta$ for every new design in the inner loop would make this process prohibitively expensive. + +Similar to [69], we, instead, cast this problem as joint optimization and amortize the costs of training multiple design-specific policies by training a single generalist policy that implements control for different designs. We achieve this by + +![](images/838ce017156046551ef4bd7611c237251e8acab6c757f6ac8b60fe2a4fded981.jpg) +Fig. 6: The design of photoreceptors plays a crucial role in their effectiveness. Each dot shows the performance of photoreceptors with a given design, either random, computational (see Sec. 5), or intuitive. We use $1 \times 1$ PRs for DMC and the grids of $4 \times 4$ PRs for TargetNav. The design is crucial in achieving high performance, and poorly designed sensors can result in the performance close to the blind agent that does not have any visual information. + +conditioning the policy on the current design vector: $\pi_w(a_{t+1} | o_t, \theta)$ . In practice, we use the same design-specific architecture described in Sec. 4.1, as it already has the design vector $\theta$ as part of the input. To optimize the design, we define a design policy $\pi_\phi(\theta)$ and optimize its parameters jointly with the parameters $w$ of the control policy: + +$$ +\phi^ {*}, w ^ {*} = \arg \max _ {\phi , w} \mathbb {E} _ {\tilde {\theta} \sim \pi_ {\phi} (\theta)} \mathbb {E} _ {\pi_ {w} \left(a _ {t} \mid o _ {t}, \tilde {\theta}\right)} \sum_ {t = 1} ^ {T} \gamma^ {t} r _ {t}. \tag {1} +$$ + +In practice, this implies extending the original decision process with an additional design action step $a_0 \triangleq \theta$ at the beginning of each episode. We set the corresponding observation and reward to zero, $o_0 = 0$ , $r_0 = 0$ . One, however, can use a design-dependent reward $r_0(\theta)$ to favor specific, e.g., low-cost, designs. We then use the same PPO algorithm and update the control policy using control actions $a_{1:T}$ and the design policy using the design action $\theta$ . See Fig. 7-Left for the visualization, and refer to Supplementary Material for further details. + +Design Policy. We model the design policy with the factorized Gaussian distribution $\prod_{k=1}^{K}\mathcal{N}(\theta^k|\mu,\mathrm{diag}(\sigma))$ , where $\phi = (\mu_1, \sigma_2, \ldots, \sigma_K)$ , $\mu_k, \sigma_k \in \mathbb{R}^7$ . After training, we use $\theta_k^* = \mu_k$ as the final optimal design for each sensor. Note that while this distribution models each sensor independently, the final design of each sensor is informed by the others because they are optimized together. + +Generalist Control Policy. Training the generalist policy allows, in principle, to amortize the costs of training design-specific policies by parameter sharing. Still, modeling and training such a policy implementing control for any design can have high memory and computational costs. Note, however, that Eq. (1) only needs the policy that implements control for (likely) samples $\tilde{\theta}$ from the current design policy to provide it with a local direction for the improvement. Thus, we can train a local generalist policy and control the locality by the variance of the design policy, which in the limit of low variance should allow + +![](images/696f1f4e64b480c2fc4547b258512ff02b9236b6964366868ecf5d8787403129.jpg) +Fig. 7: Left: Computational design via joint optimization. Our design optimization method jointly trains a control $(\pi_w)$ and design $(\pi_\phi)$ policies, allowing us to amortize the costs of re-training the control for each new design in a bi-level approach (see Sec. 5.2 for discussion). During each episode, first, the design policy samples the design $\theta$ of all visual sensors to be used during the episode; then, the control policy, conditioned on the current design, predicts actions based on observations governed by that design. At the end of the episode, we use the final reward to update the design and control policies jointly. We use a Gaussian design policy and take its mean as the final design. Right: Design optimization improves upon the initial random designs. We report the performance of the random initial design ( $x$ -axis) and the computational design after the optimization ( $y$ -axis). We scale the performance for DMC tasks by dividing the reward by 1000. The dashed line visualizes the cases where the performance of the design did not change after optimization. The green and red regions signify success and failure cases, respectively. We find that the proposed optimization method successfully improves the performance of the initial random design in most cases (82.5% of points are above the diagonal). + +![](images/89703a57ad056b7e1c6aa1ccffd41847b37d149552c3416755794338f14631af.jpg) + +approximating such a policy with a linear dependency on the design [32, 33]. In practice, we initialize the variance $\sigma$ low enough that it allows training the local generalist policy that performs similarly to design-specific ones and, thus, provides a good signal for a design update. + +# 5.3 Design Optimization Experiments + +In this section, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design optimization method. We show that it can improve the performance of the initial design for both photoreceptors and camera sensors. + +Design optimization improves the performance upon the initial random designs for photoreceptors. Fig. 7 shows that in most cases, the found computational design achieves higher performance than the initial random design. For DMC, we run the design optimization from two random initializations for each setting (task and $K$ ) and find that while it improves the performance of most initializations, the best-performing computational design depends on the initialization (e.g., achieving the reward of 375 and 562 for two initializations for the Walker: Walk, $K = 2$ , see Supplementary Material). This suggests that the optimization landscape might contain multiple local optima, and improving the exploration abilities of the design optimization method is an important research direction for finding the best-performing designs. + +Design optimization improves the default intuitive camera design. We apply the design optimization to explore if we can improve the default intuitive camera design used in the Habitat AI [53] simulator. Tab. 1 shows that the agent using a computationally designed camera outperforms the one using the default intuitive design in both navigation tasks when using the shallow 3-layer Transformer encoder. + +

Since there is no single obvious way to design such visual sensors, we conducted a human survey to collect intuitive designs. We ask participants to design the parameters of the photoreceptor sensors (same design space as for the computational design) for each task, morphology, and $K$ . We collect 10 designs for the TargetNav task and 10 designs for the Walker agent in DMC and evaluate them on Walk and Stand tasks.

We further show that the design of these simple visual sensors is crucial and introduce a computational design optimization method that finds well-performing designs comparable to that of more complex camera sensors. Below, we discuss some of our work's limitations. + +Scope of the Studied Scenarios. We focused on active vision tasks primarily involving locomotion and typical robotic agents. Exploring other tasks and less typical scenarios, e.g., a perceptual micro-robot for medical tasks, may better illustrate both the limits and usefulness of simple visual sensors. + +Additional Constraints during Design Optimization. Besides the final performance of visual sensors, it is important to include factors like their number, production costs, power consumption, and physical size in the design optimization objective. Ignoring them might lead to impractical solutions, similar to how disregarding the "Square-cube law" [1, 16] might suggest that an animal's body can grow impractically large. + +Parametrizing Complex Robot Morphologies. We consider simple robot morphologies with primitive shapes like boxes and cylinders, allowing us to parametrize the design space easily. More complex, e.g., soft robots, would require more general methods to parametrize their surfaces for design optimization. + +Local to Global Design Optimization. Our method improves initial designs to find well-performing ones, but similar to other local optimization methods, it may need to be restarted to avoid local optima. Incorporating global search methodologies [3] could allow better design space exploration and finding better-performing designs. + +# Acknowledgments + +We would like to thank Jason Toskov for his expertise and efforts in running the real world demonstration of PR agents.

This work focuses on benchmarking the capabilities of vision large language models (VLLMs) in visual reasoning. Different from prior studies, we shift our focus from evaluating standard performance to introducing a comprehensive safety evaluation suite *Unicorn*, covering out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization and adversarial robustness. For the OOD evaluation, we present two novel visual question-answering (VQA) datasets, each with one variant, designed to test model performance under challenging conditions. In exploring adversarial robustness, we propose a straightforward attack strategy for misleading VLLMs to produce visual-unrelated responses. Moreover, we assess the efficacy of two jailbreaking strategies, targeting either the vision or language input of VLLMs. Our evaluation of 22 diverse models, ranging from open-source VLLMs to GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, yields interesting observations: 1) Current VLLMs struggle with OOD texts but not images, unless the visual information is limited; and 2) These VLLMs can be easily misled by deceiving vision encoders only, and their vision-language training often compromise safety protocols.

However, these VLLMs struggle to accurately identify the correct number of objects in OOD visual scenarios, even when presented with simple questions generated from text templates. It is also worth noting that all models exhibit a $5\\%$ or greater decrease in performance on OODCV-VQA with digit answers compared to the same type of VQA in the VQAv2 task [2, 56], confirming the inherent difficulty of the counting task in OOD images. In terms of overall scores, the InstructBLIP series continues to dominate the proposed OOD benchmark, along with recently released VLLMs such as LLaVAv1.5, Qwen-VL-Chat, CogVLM, and InternLM-X, all achieving an average accuracy of over $70\\%$ .", + "bbox": [ + 212, + 518, + 787, + 744 + ], + "page_idx": 7 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "OODCV-Counterfactual Analysis.

However, Fuyu shows a performance drop in the OOD situation, i.e., $18.4\\%$ and $4.9\\%$ performance drop comparing other baselines on two OOD tasks severally. Interestingly, Fuyu's lack of a ViT component makes it less vulnerable to adversarial attacks, with a $33.5\\%$ lower ASR compared to other VLLMs under similar conditions (Sec. 4.2).

A fundamental issue contributing to the compromised safety in VLLMs is the absence of safety-focused data in almost all vision-language datasets.

This work focuses on benchmarking the capabilities of vision large language models (VLLMs) in visual reasoning. Different from prior studies, we shift our focus from evaluating standard performance to introducing a comprehensive safety evaluation suite *Unicorn*, covering out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization and adversarial robustness. For the OOD evaluation, we present two novel visual question-answering (VQA) datasets, each with one variant, designed to test model performance under challenging conditions. In exploring adversarial robustness, we propose a straightforward attack strategy for misleading VLLMs to produce visual-unrelated responses. Moreover, we assess the efficacy of two jailbreaking strategies, targeting either the vision or language input of VLLMs. Our evaluation of 22 diverse models, ranging from open-source VLLMs to GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, yields interesting observations: 1) Current VLLMs struggle with OOD texts but not images, unless the visual information is limited; and 2) These VLLMs can be easily misled by deceiving vision encoders only, and their vision-language training often compromise safety protocols.

In addition to OOD situations related to visual content, the textual question component of a VQA can also deviate from the default distribution. We introduce a challenging variant of our OODCV-VQA that includes counterfactual questions paired with the image. Specifically, we append counterfactual descriptions that alter the answer to the image.

A fundamental issue contributing to the compromised safety in VLLMs is the absence of safety-focused data in almost all vision-language datasets. As demonstrated in our prior findings and corroborated by others [13, 46], VLLMs exhibit a significant language bias. Therefore, it is crucial to augment the safety aspect in training data, especially in textual instructions, to fix the broken safety protocols." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.735, + 0.785, + 0.84 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Conclusion. In this study, we conduct safety evaluations of VLLMs using a newly proposed benchmark, focusing on two key aspects: out-of-distribution scenarios and redteaming attacks. We comprehensively assess 22 models in total, including 20 open-source models and closed-source GPT-4V and Gemini Pro. We present five crucial findings from these evaluation results as well as an in-depth discussion of their underlying factors, underscoring the need for future research on enhancing the safety aspects of VLLMs." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.419, + 0.115, + 0.732, + 0.129 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Safety Evaluation Benchmark for Vision LLMs" + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.769, + 0.117, + 0.785, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "15" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.218, + 0.145, + 0.403, + 0.163 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Acknowledgements" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.176, + 0.788, + 0.238 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "This work is partially supported by a gift from Open Philanthropy and Cisco Faculty Research Award.

Different from prior studies, we shift our focus from evaluating standard performance to introducing a comprehensive safety evaluation suite *Unicorn*, covering out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization and adversarial robustness. For the OOD evaluation, we present two novel visual question-answering (VQA) datasets, each with one variant, designed to test model performance under challenging conditions. In exploring adversarial robustness, we propose a straightforward attack strategy for misleading VLLMs to produce visual-unrelated responses. Moreover, we assess the efficacy of two jailbreaking strategies, targeting either the vision or language input of VLLMs. Our evaluation of 22 diverse models, ranging from open-source VLLMs to GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, yields interesting observations: 1) Current VLLMs struggle with OOD texts but not images, unless the visual information is limited; and 2) These VLLMs can be easily misled by deceiving vision encoders only, and their vision-language training often compromise safety protocols. We release this safety evaluation suite at https://github.com/UCSC-VLAA/vllm-safety-benchmark. + +Keywords: Vision Language $\cdot$ Out-of-Distribution $\cdot$ Adversarial Attack $\cdot$ Multimodal Benchmark + +![](images/a9ad5afce6d57ead4577e900d615a4b07e9b34b4b9c2a50aea7db7b199c16217.jpg) + +![](images/e25e8cb62d491a247d752a3b9e52150ca2840b7e324d0191a5aae6c6eec8a575.jpg) +Fig. 2: An overview of several current VLLMs on two scenarios in our *Unicorn* benchmark — OOD generalization and adversarial attack.

A notable manifestation of this evolution is the emergence of Vision Large Language Models (VLLMs) [14,26,63], which harnesses the capabilities of LLMs to tackle complex vision-language tasks. To evaluate VLLMs in diverse real-world contexts, several multi-modal benchmarks have been introduced [7,13,19,28,38], providing comprehensive assessments of their capabilities. + +However, as the deep learning models are generally susceptible to adversarial examples [6, 36], a critical yet often overlooked aspect is the safety of VLLMs. While there has been a recent shift in focusing on this challenge, the scope of these evaluations has been limited to specific tasks (e.g., attack [16, 32], hallucination [25, 48, 62], ethical [46], and cultural aspect [61]) or input modalities, i.e., visual or language perspective [32, 34, 51, 64]. This study aims to bridge this gap by developing a comprehensive safety assessment suite for VLLMs, ensuring their fair and harmless integration into societal applications. + +To this end, we hereby present our newly designed safety evaluation benchmark *Unicorn* (illustrated in Fig 1), containing two parts: out-of-distribution (*OOD*) scenarios and adversarial attacks on both the visual and language components of VLLMs. For the OOD situation, we collect two datasets, *OODCV-VQA* and Sketchy-VQA, based on rarely seen images in application scene from existing image corpus [18, 58], such as items with unusual texture or objects drawn in several simple lines. We further explore two variants of these two datasets by either augmenting with counterfactual descriptions as in [56] or switching the main objects in images to the less common ones. For adversarial attacks, we first propose a simple and universal attack strategy targeting the vision encoder of CLIP, registering comparable or stronger competence in misleading VLLMs' outputs compared to the latest transferable attacks [16, 59]. Furthermore, we benchmark two jailbreaking attacks, including both white-box and transfer attacks on vision and language input, respectively [32, 64]. Several conclusions can + +be drawn directly from the overall evaluation results in Fig. 2, such as the observation that proprietary VLLMs generally outperform others in OOD evaluations, while recent models like CogVLM and Qwen-VL demonstrate higher robustness against the misleading adversarial attack. + +We extensively evaluate 20 open-source VLLMs across different model scales, LLMs, and vision encoders. Additionally, we evaluate closed-source GPT-4V [31] and Gemini Pro [41] through provided APIs. With these results, we offer the following takeaways: + +- VLLMs excel at comprehending OOD visual content but struggle with OOD textual input. While VLLMs demonstrate impressive performance on images in OOD scenarios (such as texture, weather, pose, and shape), they struggle when the language input is perturbed in a counterfactual manner. This contrast highlights their strength in visual interpretation and the significant role of language inputs in their functionality. +- VLLMs face inherent challenges when processing sketch objects. VLLMs, including proprietary GPT-4V, struggle with sketch images, finding even simple Yes/No questions challenging due to sketches' limited informational content. +- Simple CLIP ViT-based attacks are effective for misguiding VLLMs that are unable to reject. By aligning the CLIP ViT with irrelevant textual objects, it is possible to attack the vision encoder of VLLMs. But this tactic is less effective against GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, which can refuse to answer given inappropriate inputs. +- Inducing VLLMs to follow toxic instructions is not universal by attacking the vision part only. Unlike simply misleading VLLMs to generate random texts that are irrelevant to given visual content, jailbreaking VLLMs to elicit specific toxic responses is challenging by twitching the vision input only. +- Current vision-language training weakens safety protocols in aligned language models. Transitioning from LLMs to VLLMs raises safety concerns, as the vision-language training paradigm employed neglects safety rules in most cases. This prioritizes the need to incorporate safety protocols during the visual instruction tuning. + +# 2 The Safety Evaluation Benchmark + +This section dives into two evaluation scenarios, i.e., OOD and redteaming attacks, for a comprehensive safety analysis for both the latest open-source VLLMs and GPT-4V and Gemini Pro.

In this section, we introduce two OOD VQA tasks with two datasets and two corresponding data variants. + +# 2.1.1 00DCV-VQA and its Counterfactual Variant + +Given that most VLLMs are calibrated on image-text pairs that are ubiquitous in everyday life, it is plausible that their performance may be suboptimal in scenarios that are not represented in the training set. In order to assess the efficacy of models under such circumstances, we propose a novel VQA dataset grounded on images from OODCV [58]. + +With the aid of image and object labels, we generate questions with predefined templates that can be answered with either a Yes/No response or a digit. A comprehensive overview of the test set's statistics concerning various OOD scenarios and answer types are presented in Table 1 and 2, we show more dataset details in the Appendix. In addition to OOD situations related to visual content, the textual question component of a VQA can also deviate from the default distribution. We introduce a challenging variant of our OODCV-VQA that includes counterfactual questions paired with the image. Specifically, we append counterfactual descriptions that alter the answer to the image. But distinct from previous work that requires annotators for creating new questions [56], we employ diverse textual templates for this purpose, which also proves their effectiveness in this task. In detail, for questions that require a Yes/No response, we flip the answer to the opposite; while for VQAs with digit answers, we either add or remove certain items through questions to change the answer or remove irrelevant objects from the scene that do not affect the answer. Some examples of question templates are shown in Table 3. + +# 2.1.2 Sketchy-VQA and its Challenging Variant + +The real-world scenario is replete with abundant and colorful visual information. However, abstract sketches, which are a less common form of visual content, can pose challenges for both human and neural models when it comes to accurate identification [11,23]. Therefore, we consider the VQA task with sketchy images as another interesting out-of-distribution (OOD) setting for evaluating VLLMs. + +To this end, we utilize the sketchy images from [18]. Each image in the sketchy dataset is labeled with the main object in the sketch, and there are 100 sketchy pictures in each category. To construct the Sketchy-VQA instances, we + +

We then automatically generate questions about the appearance of certain item in the image with only yes or no answers, resulting in a total of 2,000 test images and 4,000 VQA instances. We also introduce a challenging version of the dataset (referred to as Sketchy-Challenging), where we choose the 50 least frequently appearing category names for VQA data construction, meaning that both sketch images and the item name are less common in the application scenario. + +# 2.2 Adversarial Attack + +Adversarial robustness is a key focus in deep learning.

In this section, we present a simple yet effective approach that misguide a VLLM to generate image-unrelated descriptions. + +Attack Strategy. Unlike previous methods for conducting white-box attacks on vision-language foundation models [34], our approach involves training noisy image to disrupt CLIP's image-text matching [42, 59], and subsequently using these adversarial samples to mislead VLLMs. Specifically speaking, given a clean input image $x$ , our objective is to introduce a perturbation such that the resulting image $x_{\mathrm{adv}}$ matches with a textual phrase $t_{\mathrm{target}}$ that is irrelevant to the image content. The goal is to maximize the similarity between the image $V(x_{\mathrm{adv}})$ and the text representation $T(t_{\mathrm{target}})$ from a unified space such as the CLIP's [33]: + +$$ +x _ {\mathrm {a d v}} := \arg \max _ {\epsilon} d (V (x _ {\mathrm {a d v}}), T (t _ {\mathrm {t a r g e t}})) \quad \text {w h e r e} \quad | \epsilon | \leq \epsilon_ {0} +$$ + +

Can current vision jailbreaking method be a universal villain? Previous works introduce methods that utilize visual adversarial examples to induce the model into generating toxic responses [21, 32]. We follow their training and testing settings for benchmarking current VLLMs under such attack. In detail, the adversarial examples are obtained by maximizing the probability of generating harmful examples given inputs. As this attack method exhibits a certain level of transferability, we evaluate a specific attack method's transferability through two testing scenarios: white-box and transfer attacks, using adversarial images trained on models like MiniGPT4 (Vicuna-v0-7B), LLaVA (LLaMA-Chat-13B), and InstructBLIP (Vicuna-v0-13B). These attacks involve feeding visual adversarial examples with varying toxic instructions. To assess the toxicity of the generated responses, we use the Perspective API [22], which scores responses from harmless to highly toxic. A response is deemed toxic if it exceeds a predefined score threshold (e.g., 0.5 out of 1.0). + +Attacking on the LLM Part. Is there a safety hazard introduced by vision-language training in LLMs?

+ +Table 6: Results on OODCV-VQA and its counterfactual variant. Best scores among open-source VLLMs are in bold. Proprietary model results are marked in gray. + +OODCV-VQA Analysis. The OODCV [58] dataset contains images that are not commonly encountered in everyday life, leading us to anticipate poor performance from VLLMs trained on public image-text datasets. Surprisingly, our observations reveal that current VLLMs generally perform well when answering questions about simple object appearances in OOD images, achieving over $95\%$ accuracy on Yes/No questions for all models except the initial versions of MiniGPT4. However, these VLLMs struggle to accurately identify the correct number of objects in OOD visual scenarios, even when presented with simple questions generated from text templates. It is also worth noting that all models exhibit a $5\%$ or greater decrease in performance on OODCV-VQA with digit answers compared to the same type of VQA in the VQAv2 task [2, 56], confirming the inherent difficulty of the counting task in OOD images. In terms of overall scores, the InstructBLIP series continues to dominate the proposed OOD benchmark, along with recently released VLLMs such as LLaVAv1.5, Qwen-VL-Chat, CogVLM, and InternLM-X, all achieving an average accuracy of over $70\%$ . + +OODCV-Counterfactual Analysis. As for OODCV-Counterfactual data, shifting the text questions to include counterfactual suffix results in a significant decrease in performance for all open-source models, with an average drop of $18.3\%$ on the overall score from $62.0\%$ to $43.7\%$ . Surprisingly, there is a substantial $33.2\%$ decrease in performance on Yes/No questions, in contrast to their decent performance without counterfactual descriptions.

When focusing on VQA instances with Yes/No answers, two models stand out from the others: PandaGPT and Fuyu. These models struggle to answer almost all counterfactual questions, resulting in an average accuracy of only $2\%$ , while performing surprisingly well on the original visual questions. This observation leads to the conclusion that these two VLLMs struggle to comprehend complex counterfactual queries given images and tend to default to answering 'Yes' when faced with visual questions. + +As for diverse performance over different VLLMs, Qwen-VL and CogVLM achieve higher scores on these two tasks and on Sketchy-VQA tasks. This elevated performance possibly should be attributed to their substantial number of trainable parameters, as indicated in Table 4, coupled with access to high-quality training data. Conversely, models exhibiting suboptimal performance, such as InstructBLIP with FlanT5 showing limitations in Yes/No answering can be attributed to its LLM part, as InstructBLIP with Vicuna generally demonstrates much stronger performance. + +Proprietary Model Analysis. Concerning two closed-source VLLMs, GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, while Gemini-Pro excels in 00DCV-VQA, GPT-4V lags behind in this aspect compared to recent open-source models like Qwen-VL and mPLUG-Owl2, showcasing its shortcoming in reasoning on uncommon images. For the counterfactual variant, the incorporation of counterfactual descriptions still adversely affect the performance of these two models. However, both of + +![](images/aa7980c4401cd5d9787ee9177cb24d3dbaa37fbfd8a7853d689be373122c1315.jpg) +Fig. 4: Results on Sketchy-VQA and its challenging variant.

VLLMs perform poorly when fed with counterfactual questions, as they may hallucinate even in cases where they could have answered the original question correctly.

Our observations indicate that both prevailing VLLMs like MiniGPT4 and the latest models like Fuyu may struggle to identify objects in images with sketchy lines and limited information. Additionally, our observation on the LLM component suggests that VLLMs leveraging more powerful LLMs generally perform better in these challenging tasks. For less commonly seen objects in sketchy form, VLLMs tend to perform worse due to poorer association with less familiar concepts, resulting in an average F1 score drop of $4.4\%$ compared to frequently seen objects. Furthermore, our observations on GPT-4V and Gemini Pro suggest that Gemini Pro excels at recognizing sketch images in both regular and challenging situations with the best average performance of $91.4\%$ F1. In the meanwhile, GPT-4V is less advantageous compared with open VLLMs, which presents potential space for improvement of GPT-4V on the task by adding accurate sketch visual data during training. + +Additional Analysis. We also test open VLLMs on synthesized real images using a pre-trained diffusion model based on sketch ones, and the result showcases an average $8.9\%$ F1 improvement over the sketch images from $77.4\%$ to $86.3\%$ . This observation well justifies our argument that VLLMs perform worse when facing images with less visual cues (e.g., texture, color, background).

Regarding our MIX ATTACK, as its primary objective is to deceive black-box VLLMs (transferable attack) through visual manipulation, we compare it against (1) the latest ATTACKBARD, which employs identical attack settings to ours; (2) Transferable VLLM attack method MF-IT [59], which is re-implemented by ourselves to fit in our task. In detail, we employ three objects — “dog”, “spaceship”, “coconut”, that are irrelevant to the content in the images to be evaluated; we then test all VLLMs on three sets of attacked images and report the average misleading rate across them. For our MIX ATTACK, we assign the same three concepts as the misleading words to train attacking noises. In Table 7, we present the missing rate of different VLLMs on clean images, images with Gaussian noise (Rand. Noise), adversarial images attacked by [16] (ATTACKBARD), adversarily attacked by [59] (MF-IT), or images attacked by our MIX ATTACK with two perturbation budgets.

Despite being trained using only one ViT from the CLIP model, our attack methods outperform MF-IT under certain settings, with an average improved misleading rate of $4.4\%$ (60.1% vs. 64.5%).

Additionally, MIX.ATTACK shows + +![](images/ffa153f51e014555d0fced6c9d521325f6d8faf35a6aee91697d6d30817e3925.jpg) +Fig. 5: Attack success rate (ASR) of 21 models using adversarial images trained.

However, CogVLM stands out as an exception, as it is not easily susceptible to attacks, with a misleading rate that falls short of the average by $34.3\%$ . This may be attributed to the larger parameters on the vision end of the model, totaling 17B model parameters. In addition, we note that a decrease may appear in misleading rate after adding noise, e.g., there is an average misleading rate decrease of $2.8\%$ over LLaVA-1.5 and InternLM-X when adding random noise (from $21.5\%$ to merely $18.3\%$ ), which may be due to the incorporation of noisy images during their training. + +Unlike open-source VLLMs that are prone to speak out of the blue when encountering adversarial examples, GPT-4V and Gemini Pro often reject to answer questions that are paired with adversarial images, which could better handle visual attacks in real applications.

In Figure 5, we observe a notable increased probability of three white-box attacked models in generating toxic texts — MiniGPT4, LLaVA and InstructBLIP yield an average $2.1 \times$ higher chance of producing toxic context compared to reasoning on clean images.

The LLaVA family is selected as the primary targets for attack, due to their widespread usage and robustness among open-source VLLMs. Our analysis in Table 8 reveals several significant insights regarding the impact of vision-language tuning on the safety protocols in models: (1) VLLMs are easier to breach in both vanilla and white-box attack with an average of $5.5\%$ and $17.3\%$ higher ASRs compared to LLMs. (2) A more pronounced ease is shown in transferring adversarial strings from LLMs to VLLMs than vice versa, where migrating attack from LLMs to VLLMs yields $26.0\%$ higher ASR on average. (3) Transferring adversarial prompts from LLMs to GPT-4V is easier than from VLLMs, with an improved ASR w.r.t. white-box attack of $2.7\%$ on average, indicating jailbreaking LLMs requires more efforts than VLLMs. These consistent findings lead us to conclude that current vision-language training tends to diminish the effectiveness of safety protocols initially established in LLMs. + +# 5 Related Work + +Vision Large Language Models. Vision-Language models, have showcased remarkable proficiency in modeling the interplay between visual and textual information [17]. Referred to as VLLMs, these models integrate LLMs with visual inputs, demonstrating impressive visual understanding and conversational abilities. These models typically employ end-to-end training that jointly decode visual and text tokens [15,26,44,52,63] or leverage external multi-modal tools for completing various complex tasks [40,45,50,60]. However, they still face numerous safety challenges like adversarial vulnerability [16,32], hallucination [13,62], and out-of-distribution problems [24]. + +Safety Evaluations. Security concerns that are associated with deep neural networks have garnered significant attention [9, 37, 47]. VLLMs also confront safety and robustness concerns. However, existing works mainly put their focuses on the visual input [32, 34, 59] or the language part [21, 51, 53, 64] to exploit + +adversarial vulnerabilities with evaluations of methods' effectiveness. [10] identify the visual regions causing model prediction errors for model hallucination detection. [27] come up with a benchmark with 12 diverse safety aspects. [59] evaluate the robustness of VLLMs, where safety concerns are heightened. + +# 6 Discussions and Conclusion + +VLLMs without the explicit vision encoder are better at "defending" than "knowing". Compared to mainstream VLLMs, Fuyu omits the pretrained vision component, directly using LLMs for both vision and language processing. This approach yields results on par with leading VLLMs in traditional benchmarks [5]. However, Fuyu shows a performance drop in the OOD situation, i.e., $18.4\%$ and $4.9\%$ performance drop comparing other baselines on two OOD tasks severally. Interestingly, Fuyu's lack of a ViT component makes it less vulnerable to adversarial attacks, with a $33.5\%$ lower ASR compared to other VLLMs under similar conditions (Sec. 4.2). This suggests that while VLLMs without vision encoders are adept at defending against adversarial attacks, they may struggle in recognizing visual content in challenging OOD scenarios. + +Unleashing the power of stronger VLLMs requires selecting training configurations. Models like MiniGPT4 and InstructBLIP with minimal parameters activated, may not necessarily generalize to OOD domains better with stronger LLMs. While models with full parameter tuning (e.g., LLaVA and mPLUG-Owl) often show that stronger LLMs lead to increased performance, averaging $52.3\%$ and $10.0\%$ performance boost on OOD tasks, MiniGPT4 and InstructBLIP see an average decrease by $2.1\%$ and $0.2\%$ with improved LLM, respectively. This can be attributed to a more sensitive hyper-parameter selection due to fewer tuning parameters, which raises the need to carefully select training configurations to fully unleash VLLMs' potentials. + +Call for reliable and aligned paradigm for vision-language training. Current vision-language training not only undermines established safety protocols in LLMs but also overlooks special safety hazards inherent in vision-language tasks, such as rejecting to answer questions given adversarial images. Findings in Sec. 4.2 highlight the urgent need to reinforce existing safety measures and integrate new safety protocols tailored for VLLMs during training. A fundamental issue contributing to the compromised safety in VLLMs is the absence of safety-focused data in almost all vision-language datasets. As demonstrated in our prior findings and corroborated by others [13, 46], VLLMs exhibit a significant language bias. Therefore, it is crucial to augment the safety aspect in training data, especially in textual instructions, to fix the broken safety protocols. + +Conclusion. In this study, we conduct safety evaluations of VLLMs using a newly proposed benchmark, focusing on two key aspects: out-of-distribution scenarios and redteaming attacks. We comprehensively assess 22 models in total, including 20 open-source models and closed-source GPT-4V and Gemini Pro. We present five crucial findings from these evaluation results as well as an in-depth discussion of their underlying factors, underscoring the need for future research on enhancing the safety aspects of VLLMs. + +# Acknowledgements + +This work is partially supported by a gift from Open Philanthropy and Cisco Faculty Research Award.

This work focuses on benchmarking the capabilities of vision large language models (VLLMs) in visual reasoning. Different from prior studies, we shift our focus from evaluating standard performance to introducing a comprehensive safety evaluation suite *Unicorn*, covering out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization and adversarial robustness. For the OOD evaluation, we present two novel visual question-answering (VQA) datasets, each with one variant, designed to test model performance under challenging conditions. In exploring adversarial robustness, we propose a straightforward attack strategy for misleading VLLMs to produce visual-unrelated responses. Moreover, we assess the efficacy of two jailbreaking strategies, targeting either the vision or language input of VLLMs. Our evaluation of 22 diverse models, ranging from open-source VLLMs to GPT-4V and Gemini Pro, yields interesting observations: 1) Current VLLMs struggle with OOD texts but not images, unless the visual information is limited; and 2) These VLLMs can be easily misled by deceiving vision encoders only, and their vision-language training often compromise safety protocols.

A fundamental issue contributing to the compromised safety in VLLMs is the absence of safety-focused data in almost all vision-language datasets.

Do our facial expressions change when we speak over video calls? Given two unpaired sets of videos of people, we seek to automatically find spatio-temporal patterns that are distinctive of each set.

We demonstrate that our method can discover behavioral differences between conversing face-to-face (F2F) and on video-calls (VCs). We also show the applicability of our method on discovering differences in presidential communication styles. Additionally, we are able to predict temporal change-points in videos that decouple expressions in an unsupervised way, and increase the interpretability and usefulness of our model.

Do our facial expressions change when we speak over video calls? Given two unpaired sets of videos of people, we seek to automatically find spatio-temporal patterns that are distinctive of each set. Existing methods use discriminative approaches and perform post-hoc explainability analysis. Such methods are insufficient as they are unable to provide insights beyond obvious dataset biases, and the explanations are useful only if humans themselves are good at the task. Instead, we tackle the problem through the lens of generative domain translation: our method generates a detailed report of learned, input-dependent spatio-temporal features and the extent to which they vary between the domains. We demonstrate that our method can discover behavioral differences between conversing face-to-face (F2F) and on video-calls (VCs). We also show the applicability of our method on discovering differences in presidential communication styles. Additionally, we are able to predict temporal change-points in videos that decouple expressions in an unsupervised way, and increase the interpretability and usefulness of our model. Finally, our method, being generative, can be used to transform a video call to appear as if it were recorded in a F2F setting.

We addressed the task of discovering spatio-temporal patterns from unpaired facial keypoint data by presenting FacET, a generative domain translation method that is interpretable-by-design.

FacET can predict temporal change-points that decouple expression changes from time. Extensive experiments showcase FacET's ability to generate informative reports of input-specific spatio-temporal patterns between domains.

Do our facial expressions change when we speak over video calls? Given two unpaired sets of videos of people, we seek to automatically find spatio-temporal patterns that are distinctive of each set. Existing methods use discriminative approaches and perform post-hoc explainability analysis. Such methods are insufficient as they are unable to provide insights beyond obvious dataset biases, and the explanations are useful only if humans themselves are good at the task. Instead, we tackle the problem through the lens of generative domain translation: our method generates a detailed report of learned, input-dependent spatio-temporal features and the extent to which they vary between the domains. We demonstrate that our method can discover behavioral differences between conversing face-to-face (F2F) and on video-calls (VCs). We also show the applicability of our method on discovering differences in presidential communication styles. Additionally, we are able to predict temporal change-points in videos that decouple expressions in an unsupervised way, and increase the interpretability and usefulness of our model. Finally, our method, being generative, can be used to transform a video call to appear as if it were recorded in a F2F setting. Experiments and visualizations show our approach is able to discover a range of behaviors, taking a step towards deeper understanding of human behaviors. Video results, code and data can be found at facet.cs.columbia.edu. + +Keywords: Facial Expressions $\cdot$ Interpretability $\cdot$ Video Conferencing + +# 1 Introduction + +Have you wondered how your facial expressions change when speaking to someone over a video call (VC) as compared to speaking face-to-face (F2F) (Fig. 1)? Studies have shown that there are significant differences between these two modes of communication – in terms of overall effectiveness, rapport building, cognitive load, energy consumption, etc. – which can manifest itself in changed expression patterns [1-5]. Since the recent intervention of COVID-19, our lives drastically changed as VC became the primary source of communication, resulting in unprecedented social phenomena such as zoom fatigue [6-10]. It is important to systematically study these changed patterns in order to build tools that can cope with such interventions – e.g., by evaluating and improving AR/VR technology so that our virtual experiences are as similar to reality as possible. Moreover, studying changes in human behavior, at an individual-level, as well as across + +![](images/c052187eb082fe76fd93c75938ea1b84b79d59bb956089970a6fa4089ca101eb.jpg) +Fig. 1: What is the difference between the two domains? Given two unpaired sets of videos of persons speaking on VC (left) and F2F (right), our goal is to provide interpretable insights on how the motion sequence differs between the domains. See Figs. 3 & 5 for a detailed report generated by our approach. + +a population, can be useful in a variety of disciplines including anthropology, sociology, as well as cognitive and social psychology [11-13]. + +Building models to understand facial expression changes in conversations is challenging for two key reasons. First is the dataset bias. Internet videos are an abundant source of natural and diverse data [14]. However, we find that internet videos of people on VC and F2F are heavily biased. VC often features direct camera gazes, while F2F shows side views. Such biases are not inherently harmful, but models that simply identify them are not sufficient to discover all the differences. Unsurprisingly, it is quite easy to build a classifier that can differentiate the two domains. Fig. 2 shows the weights of a linear classifier trained on disentangled facial features (see Sec. 3.1). With no temporal information, the classifier attains $88\%$ accuracy on single frames alone! Moreover, these biases are implicit and apriori unbeknownst to us, making them near impossible to remove. + +Second, our task is not simply that of classification, but rather discovery of domain-specific differences. We lack prior knowledge about the domains, and we wish to understand them better. Being able to predict the domain is perhaps less interesting than being able to understand the subtle spatio-temporal differences of facial expressions across the two domains. Much of the current literature focuses on post-hoc explainability of black-boxes [15-20]. However, such approaches are unsuitable for our goals because discriminative models (such as Fig. 2) trained on biased data only pick up these biases. Additionally, the explanations are useful only if humans themselves are good at the task. + +We present FacET, a general-purpose framework to discover interpretable, spatio-temporal trends between two domains, that works even in the presence of dominant biases. In contrast to discriminative methods, FacET employs a generative approach to discover the differences. To study the aforementioned task of VC and F2F conversations, we first collect a large video dataset (240 hours) of such conversations, called the ZoomIn dataset. In addition, we also collect a second dataset of speaking styles of US presidents. We apply FacET on + +![](images/6d48da91851199e00aa1076e3853a4890b874d7c3422173fd257bc2ac92e5e65.jpg) +Fig. 2: Insufficiency of discriminative methods. We train a simple linear classifier on disentangled facial features to distinguish VC and F2F conversations (refer to Fig. 3 for the meanings of these features). We observe $88\%$ classification accuracy even when using frames without the temporal information, with 'Head Pitch' (#1) and 'Head Tilt' (#10) being the most dominant features. A post-hoc explainability model cannot explain this discriminative model as it is trained on biased data. + +these datasets, and reveal novel insights - e.g., we observe that speakers tend to laugh bigger in F2F as compared to VC. We also observe that President Trump raises his eyebrows more while listening compared to President Obama. Moreover, FacET has applications beyond revealing these insights - we show that FacET can be used to perform domain transfer - e.g., we can modify VC videos to look more like a F2F conversation (effectively "de-zoomifying" a video). + +# 2 Related Work + +We discuss the landscape of interpretability in computer vision by describing post-hoc explanations, interpretable architectures, as well as disentangled representations. We then discuss efforts in human facial expression understanding. + +Interpretability through post-hoc explanations. Explainable AI (XAI) [21] methods seek to explain model decisions through visualizations [15-20], counterfactual explanations [22-24], feature importance [25] and sample importance [26-32] methods. These explanations are important to ensure algorithmic fairness [33], identify potential bias in the training data [34-36], and to ensure that the algorithms perform as expected [37-40]. However, post-hoc explanations are only meaningful if humans are good at solving these tasks and can check the model's explanation against their own understanding. Also they can only explain what the model has learned, which is problematic if the data is biased. They are more useful for explaining model decisions than data patterns, which is our focus. + +Interpretability by design. A number of works have defined interpretability through a set of linear transforms between classes [41-46]. However these methods are limited to discriminative tasks where classes are distinguishable by humans. Generalized Additive Model [47] and its variants [48-52] are another class of methods which non-linearly transform input features separately. However, these methods suffer from complex training procedures and combinatorial explosion. Our method also falls in this category of interpretability-by-design, and leverages linear transformations in a generative translation setting. + +Learning Disentangled Representations. Learning factorized representations to capture independent variations in data can correspond to human-defined + +concepts and lead to interpretable models [53]. Learning disentangled representations using supervised data (apriori knowledge of the nature of generative factors) has been explored by many methods [54-57]. However, for practical applications where there is no supervision available for discovering the generative factors underlying the data, purely unsupervised approaches that use GANs [58-63] and VAEs [64-68] for learning disentangled representations are more useful. We use $\beta$ -VAE [64] which is one such popular unsupervised method. + +Facial Expressions Understanding. Existing literature on human facial expression understanding is limited to classifying emotions into known categories [69-75], or their combinations [76]. Several works have also studied person-specific speaking styles [69, 77] which link facial expression changes to personality traits. However, the continuous nature of facial expressions is not accurately modeled through such discrete representations. Recent works have also studied how a person's facial expressions change in response to the person they are interacting with [14, 78-80]. Yet, none of these works provide interpretable insights regarding inter or intra-subject patterns under varied conditions. + +# 3 Method + +A conventional approach to finding interpretable differences between two domains is to learn a discriminative model to distinguish and analyze them using post-hoc tools such as GradCAM [17]. However, discriminative models tend to focus on the first few significant modes of differences. Consequently, we cannot find all the important differences. This problem is further exacerbated if the dataset is biased, and significant differences appear only due to such biases. We posit that a generative model that can transform one domain to another should capture all possible modes of differences. Such a generative model can then be leveraged to analyse the different modes and their effect on the two domains. + +We present FacET (Facial Explanations through Translations). Given spatiotemporal facial keypoint data from two domains $X$ and $Y$ , FacET learns a translation function $G_{XY}: X \to Y$ , that can convert samples from domain $X$ to appear as if they were from domain $Y$ . Our key insight is to learn piecewise shift and scale transformations [41-46] between $X$ and $Y$ which results in $G_{XY}$ being interpretable, allowing us to explain the modes of differences between the two domains. To train FacET, we first learn a per-frame spatial representation to disentangle facial features (Sec. 3.1). Then, we train an interpretable $G_{XY}$ on these features capturing spatio-temporal differences between the domains (Sec. 3.2). We use the trained $G_{XY}$ to generate detailed reports (Sec. 3.3) highlighting key differences between the two domains. Finally, we showcase FacET's ability to perform domain translation, e.g., by "de-zoomifying" a VC video (Sec. 3.4). + +# 3.1 Disentangling Spatial Features + +The first step towards an interpretable translation model is learning a disentangled spatial representation. We found that disentangled spatio-temporal features + +are difficult to interpret for humans. Thus, we first learn to disentangle spatial features only. $\beta$ -VAEs [64] have been found to generate disentangled representations that are useful in discovering patterns in a variety of domains [81-85]. We train a $\beta$ -VAE on frame-level facial keypoints of our datasets. We obtain a spatial feature $z \in \mathbb{R}^l$ for a data point $d$ , where $d$ is a single frame in the clips of our dataset $X \cup Y$ . Here $l$ is the dimension of latent space. This can be achieved by learning an encoder $(q)$ and decoder $(p)$ by minimizing the $\beta$ -VAE objective, + +$$ +\mathcal {L} (X \cup Y) = - \mathbb {E} _ {q (z | d)} [ \log p (d | z) ] + \beta D _ {K L} (q (z | d) | | p (z)) \tag {1} +$$ + +The first term (marginal log-likelihood) optimizes for reconstruction quality, while the second term (KL-divergence) enforces disentanglement in the latent space $z$ . Minimizing the KL divergence between the latent vectors and a unit Gaussian prior $(p(z) = \mathcal{N}(0,\mathbf{I}))$ , results in disentangled latent vectors. Higher $\beta$ values result in better disentanglement at the cost of reconstruction. + +# 3.2 Translation Function + +We learn the translation function $G_{XY}$ in the $\beta$ -VAE's spatial latent space $z$ . We aim to learn a $G_{XY}$ that can potentially capture all differences between the two domains. To achieve this, we employ an adversarial discriminator objective. The goal of the discriminator is to keep finding differences between real and translated (fake) samples so that $G_{XY}$ keeps improving. We denote the discriminator differentiating real and fake samples from domain $Y$ as $D_Y$ . For a clip $x \in X$ , we denote its latent encoding as $z^x$ (similarly, $z^y$ for a sample $y \in Y$ ). By encoding individual frames of $x = \{x_1 \cdots x_t\}$ we can obtain the latent encodings $z^x = \{z_1^x, \dots, z_t^x\}$ , where $z_i^x = q(x_i)$ . The adversarial loss can be written as, + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {a d v} (X, Y) = \mathbb {E} _ {y \in Y} \left[ \log D _ {Y} \left(z ^ {y}\right) \right] + \mathbb {E} _ {x \in X} \left[ \log \left(1 - D _ {Y} \left(G _ {X Y} \left(z ^ {x}\right)\right)\right) \right] \tag {2} +$$ + +Similar to other adversarial objectives [86, 87], we optimize this loss function by alternatively training the translation function $G_{XY}$ and the discriminator $D_Y$ . The translation function $G_{XY}$ can be found using the following optimization, + +$$ +G _ {X Y} ^ {*} = \underset {G _ {X Y}} {\arg \min } \underset {D} {\max } L _ {a d v} (X, Y) \tag {3} +$$ + +Translation Function Architecture. If we do not constrain $G_{XY}$ – for example, by using an MLP for $G_{XY}$ – it would not be interpretable. Moreover, if the capacity of the network is high enough, the function could learn arbitrarily complex mapping between domains. For example, it could memorize a one-to-one mapping between examples from two domains, which is not a useful translation. + +To tackle both these problems we need to constrain $G_{XY}$ . Our key insight is that instead of directly learning to translate from domain $X$ to $Y$ , $G_{XY}$ first predicts a translator function $f$ , that when applied to a sample $z^x$ results in the translated output $z^{y'} = f(z^x)$ . The advantage of predicting such a translator is that its parameters are more interpretable than a black box model. For example, + +![](images/51270be424fe730e2aac3c307ed2e5bdfe1ef8e392678498b01cb5e460a0eafd.jpg) +Fig. 3: Explanation of Disentangled Latents. We vary each dimension of the 12-dimensional latent obtained through $\beta$ -VAE encoding by keeping other dimensions fixed (rows). Left: The faces corresponding to the extreme values of the perturbed latent, along with a description of the dominant change. Right: Dataset-level statistics for the desired latent, while the dotted line shows the modes. The direction and length of the arrows show the extent to which different latents change across domains on average. Refer to supplementary for videos visualizing the latents. + +as we will see in Fig. 6, our model $G_{XY}$ finds consistent translators for clips with the same expressions such as "smiling" or "listening". We also parameterize the translator $f$ to be a shift and scale operation, using a multiplicative factor $\omega \in \mathbb{R}^l$ and an additive factor $\phi \in \mathbb{R}^l$ . Therefore the translator $f(x) = \omega \odot z + \phi$ . + +One issue with the above formulation is that predicting the same translator $f$ for the entire clip can be too restrictive. The expressions and modes of conversation change within a clip. For example, a listener might start speaking or a speaker might exclaim in the middle of a clip. Therefore, instead of predicting a single translator $f$ for the entire clip, we predict different translators for different chunks. This also makes the model more robust as it is forced to learn similar translators for similar segments. We achieve this by breaking down $G_{XY}$ into two sub-modules: $G_{t}$ and $G_{f}$ . $G_{t}$ first predicts $c - 1$ temporal change-points + +![](images/3d539e3001388a39e89493eda8abb09ca58e6a886c67a77f7b1093a311cddc1b.jpg) +Fig. 4: Method Overview. Given a sequence of facial keypoints $x$ , we use a pretrained $\beta$ -VAE encoder to obtain latents $z$ . We then train a translation function $G_{XY}$ that takes as input the latents $z$ to produce a translator $(\omega, \phi, \tau)$ . This translator when applied to $z$ generates the transformed latent $z'$ , which can be decoded using the $\beta$ -VAE decoder to obtain the transformed facial keypoints $y'$ belonging in the new domain. + +$\{\tau_1, \dots, \tau_{c-1}\}$ partition the clip into $c$ chunks. $G_f$ then predicts a translator for each chunk - e.g., for the $k^{th}$ chunk, $G_f$ predicts the translator $f_k$ ( $\omega_k, \phi_k$ ). + +A key challenge here is that we do not have supervision to learn how to partition a clip into semantically meaningful chunks. In fact, discovering such meaningful chunks from the data is one of our goals. Therefore, we learn both the functions $G_{f}$ and $G_{t}$ together in an end-to-end fashion. Note that partitioning a clip using values from $G_{t}$ and passing each chunk through $G_{f}$ is a non-differentiable operation. To circumvent this, we approximate this partitioning operation with a continuous alternative. For each chunk $k$ , we learn smooth weights over time $\bar{w}_{k} \in [0,1]^{t}$ , where $t$ is the total clip length. If $T$ is the vector of time indexes $[1,2,\dots t]$ for a clip, then we define $\bar{w}_{k}$ as: + +$$ +w _ {k} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \sigma \left(\tau_ {k} - T, Q\right) & k = 1 \\ \min \left(\sigma \left(T - \tau_ {k - 1}, Q\right), \sigma \left(\tau_ {k} - T, Q\right)\right) & k \in [ 2, c - 1 ] \\ \sigma \left(T - \tau_ {k - 1}, Q\right) & k = c \end{array} \quad \bar {w} _ {k} = \frac {w _ {k}}{\sum_ {k = 1} ^ {c} w _ {k}} \right. \tag {4} +$$ + +Here $\sigma$ is the sigmoid function, and $Q$ is the temperature. Essentially, $w_{k}$ is a continuous alternative of a non-differentiable rectangular pulse function. $\bar{w}_k$ normalizes $w_{k}$ , so that they sum up to 1 at every time step. With $\bar{w}_k$ , a differentiable translator predictor can be written as $G_{f}(z^{x}\odot \bar{w}_{k})$ for chunk $k$ . + +To summarize, our model minimizes the optimization problem defined in Eq. 3 to predict the parameters of the two networks $G_{t}$ and $G_{f}$ , which together represent $G_{XY}$ . An overview of this model is illustrated in Fig. 4 + +# 3.3 Interpretability + +Our translation function is interpretable by design. First, the model can partition a clip into semantically uniform chunks without supervision. Second, predicting a translator instead of predicting the translation function $G_{XY}$ , allows us to understand how a particular expression or action changes between domains. For e.g., we can answer how "listening" changes between VC and F2F conversations. Finally, modeling a translator as a shift and scale operation, allows us to factor the translations into individual $\beta$ -VAE latents. For e.g., we can answer whether people "smile more or less" when "listening" in VC versus F2F conversations. + +Note that formulating the translator to be a shift and scale operation is a modeling choice, which can be flexibly changed depending on the task and sample representation. Also note that our framework closely resembles CycleGAN [87] with its adversarial objective, albeit without the cycle consistency loss. Cycle consistency is used to over-constrain the model and avoiding trivial solutions. Moreover, even with cycle consistency, a model with enough capacity can memorize a one-to-one mapping between examples from the two domains [87,88]. This is not a problem in cases where humans have prior knowledge and can qualitatively show that the outputs change in accordance with our prior knowledge. However, we do not have prior knowledge of what makes VC and F2F different. Our model is over-constrained by design to not lead to such trivial solutions. [89]. + +# 3.4 Domain Transfer + +Besides systematically discovering differences across domains, FacET being generative in nature, can also transform inputs $(x\rightarrow y^{\prime})$ from domain $X$ to $Y$ . To visualize the results in pixel-space, we leverage a video-to-video model, vid2vid [90], that learns keypoints to pixels using our dataset. Compared to existing methods that simply correct for gazes [91], we expect that style-transfer using FacET will lead to more faithful transfer that encompasses subtle expression changes as well. + +# 4 Experiments + +In this section, we show how our model can discover differences between domains. First, we describe the two datasets collected to study this task (Sec. 4.1). Then we evaluate FacET quantitatively (Sec. 4.2) on these datasets, and discuss its interpretable outcomes (Sec. 4.3). Refer supplementary for implementation details. + +# 4.1 Datasets + +To study the differences between VC and F2F, we collect the ZoomIn dataset from YouTube, containing 240 hours of conversations in both domains (See Fig. 1 for examples). Additionally, to study differences in communication styles across subjects, we collect a dataset of 20 hours of individual speaking styles of US presidents Obama and Trump. Each clip consists of detections on contiguous 176 frames from a participants. Refer to supplementary for more details. + +# 4.2 Quantitative Results + +Metrics. Evaluating discovered differences is hard in the absence of a paired dataset, since we cannot evaluate what will be discovered beforehand. Thus, our metric is the translation function $G_{XY}$ 's ability to fool the discriminator $D$ , while being interpretable. This is measured by discriminator accuracy, which we notice tends to stabilize after a period of training. We average it across the last 100 epochs to ensure robustness. Refer supplementary for more on metrics. + +Table 1: Performance of our method by its ability to fool the discriminator whilst being interpretable (lower is better, $50\%$ is optimal). + +

+ +Baselines. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first work that tackles this problem, so there are no comparable baselines. Thus, we validate our design choices through the following interpretable ablations of our model: + +- No Partitions: a model where we predict a single translator for the entire duration of the clip i.e. $c = 1$ . Note that this model does not need $G_{t}$ . +- Fixed-size Chunks: a model with uniform, equal-sized chunks. This model also does not use $G_{t}$ . However $G_{f}$ predicts different translators for each chunk. +- Fixed translator-set: instead of predicting the parameters of the translator, our model retrieves parameters from a set of $p$ options. We also learn this fixed-size set of parameters $P$ . $G_{f}$ then becomes a $p$ -way classifier that takes as input a chunk and predicts one of the $p$ classes using the softmax function. Since the parameters are $\omega, \phi \in \mathbb{R}^l$ , $P \in \mathbb{R}^{p \times 2l}$ is a matrix. We jointly optimize both the classifier and the parameters $P$ . We use $p = 32$ for our experiments. + +Is FacET better at translation than the baselines? Tab. 1 shows the performance of FacET and baselines using discriminator accuracy. We learn translation functions in both directions between the domains. + +FacET performs better translations than baselines and consequently results in the lowest discriminator accuracy. With uniform equal-sized chunks, $G_{f}$ cannot accurately predict good translators. Facial expressions may change in a chunk, but this model would apply the same translation function throughout, resulting in poor translations. Similarly, if we do not partition the clip, the translations are also of poor quality. Swapping the model predicting the translator with a model selecting translators from a set also results in poor translations. We argue that a fixed set of translators is too restrictive and cannot model all possible expressions even with a larger $p$ . For FacET increasing the number of chunks from 2 to 7 does not affect performance by a lot. In the presidential data, since utterances are often monotonous and in a "speech"-like non-dyadic manner, more chunks are not beneficial to model performance. We believe, based on the nature of podcast conversations, expressions often do not change more than once in a 7-second clip. Thus, we use FacET with 2 chunks for qualitative analysis. + +# 4.3 Qualitative Results + +Now that we have demonstrated that FacET can faithfully translate samples, we look at what we can discover on our data. + +How do F2F conversations differ from VC? We answer this by using FacET. We look at the distribution of latent codes for F2F and translated VC obtained from FacET. Fig. 3 shows differences between VC and F2F along the 12 latent codes. Some differences are quite apparent, for example, people look down with respect to camera in VC (because the cameras are generally above the screen during a VC). This is evident in latent code #1's distribution, where FacET rotates the head upwards when translating from VC to F2F. + +Similarly, we observe big changes in head tilt (#10) and head steer (#9), because in VC the face often always stays towards the screen, whereas the orientation of the head can vary a lot in F2F. We also notice that the head tilt (#10) and head steer (#9) distributions become bimodal after translation (from unimodal). This can again be attributed to the fact that, during a VC, we only look at screens, however in a 2-person F2F conversation, we will see two modes with peaks at the orientation where the subjects are looking at one another. + +Some other observations are not quite easily discernible but are evident from our method. We see that the smile latent distribution (#6) translates from a bimodal distribution in VC to a unimodal distribution with a peak in the center in F2F. Similarly, the eyebrow raise latent (#11) becomes very muted in an F2F conversation. We conjecture that people tend to emote more during a VC as smaller reactions are harder to pick in a VC [92]. On the contrary, we notice that people laugh less during a VC. While it is easy to emote silently on Zoom, laughing is harder because VC systems usually allow only one speaker at a time. + +How do specific expressions change between VC and F2F? We looked at how the overall behavior changes between the two domains. However, the key ability of our model is delving deeper - how do specific spatio-temporal patterns change across the two domains?

Left: Each row corresponds to two different examples belonging to a specific translator cluster (e.g., "Speaking with a smile"). The top row shows a video recorded in VC while the bottom row shows the transformed video as if it were F2F. Right: FacET generates a report for each corresponding cluster showing how each $\beta$ -VAE latent varies across the domains. Refer to Fig. 3 to interpret each latent index. See Sec. 4.3 for detailed explanations. Refer supplementary for full videos. + +person's laugh change between the domains?'. To answer this we extract spatiotemporal chunks with similar expressions. We posit that since our partitioning + +![](images/f028ecfa04d8a0119a32cca977ca8a4cec8ffdcb62ab2b047679a46fbed65717.jpg) +Fig.6: Translator cluster analysis. We perform k-means clustering on all predicted translators of the dataset and perform change-point analysis using them. Right: An entry $[i,j]$ in the matrix shows the frequency of timestamp changes while going from cluster $j$ to $i$ . Left: We show two examples of frequently occurring cluster changes from $\#1$ to $\#6$ (top) and $\#20$ to $\#9$ (bottom). Note that the matrix would have been a diagonal if changepoint $(\tau)$ prediction were not needed. + +function $(G_{t})$ segments clips into meaningful chunks and our translation predictor $G_{f}$ predicts similar translators for similar chunks, clustering parameters of the translator for a chunk should give meaningful spatio-temporal clusters. + +Therefore, we concatenate the $\omega$ and $\tau$ parameters for each chunk in our dataset and cluster them using k-means. We use the BIC-score [93] to find the optimal number of clusters. Many clusters are indeed meaningful. Fig. 5 (left) shows 2 examples each from 4 such clusters, with expressions such as "speaking with raised eyebrows" or "head shake". We translate all VC chunks from a cluster to F2F and observe the distribution of latents specific to the cluster. This analysis also results in many key insights. (see supplementary for more such insights) + +- Speakers tend to laugh bigger in F2F: This can be observed with the "Laugh" latent code #8 in the first "speaking with a laugh" cluster. Even though the peaks of the histogram do not shift by much, we can clearly see a distribution shift towards a bigger laughter (to the left). Note that a "bigger speaker laugh in F2F" is a different observation than "more laughter in F2F" that we discussed in the previous section. We could not have made this observation without the analysis of clusters shown in Fig. 5 +- F2F Listeners do less head shakes: This aligns with the previously reported results - people emote more in VC [92]. This is evident both from the translated faces and the distribution shift of the "Head read steer" code (#9). + +How do expressions change temporally? Another important aspect is how people transition from one expression to the next. Since we are interested in temporally finer expression changes, we use the model with 7 fixed-size chunks and obtain translators for individual chunks. We cluster these translators into 20 clusters and visualize common expression transitions. We measure the number of times a transition happens from one cluster to another in consecutive chunks. Fig. 6 (right) shows the number of such transitions from one cluster to another. + +![](images/648e288d07c354ac998bdb5d432d696be62289f1b37a3f5eae9e633d1acbaf32.jpg) +Fig. 7: Analysis of Presidents: 2 translator clusters (Left) and the corresponding FacET reports on the president (Obama and Trump) face dataset. + +Using this we can infer the common expression transitions. We show examples of two frequently occurring transitions in Fig. 6 (left). The first transition is people switching from listening to speaking while keeping happy expressions. Similarly, people frequently switch from listening and looking downwards to speaking neutrally. Since a lot of values are off the diagonal, this also shows that our model can detect the changes due to the partitioning function $G_{t}$ . + +Is FacET generalizable to other tasks? We also apply FacET to a different task - finding differences between facial expressions of two subjects, presidents Obama (O) and Trump (T). Since this dataset is smaller, we initialize training weights of the $\beta$ -VAE using the ZoomIn $\beta$ -VAE. A favorable side-effect is that the meanings of the latent codes do not change between datasets. However, there are some small differences due to the dataset distribution (refer supplementary). Fig. 7 shows histograms of distributions of latent codes when translating from Trump to Obama, for two clusters. Several observations can be made: + +- Trump has a more circular mouth when speaking. This is evident from the clips from the speaking clusters as well as the left shift of the latent code #6 distribution from Trump to Obama. Note that this shift is not observable in the listening cluster. Moreover, the distribution of latent code #6 is spread out for Trump in both clusters indicating a wider range of horizontal mouth motion. Both these observations have also been reported in the news [94, 95]. +- Trump raises eyebrows more while listening. Looking at the latent code #11 we observe that Trump's eyebrows are more raised when listening in comparison to Obama and also in comparison to himself while speaking [96]. + +![](images/09f712de7582169fe6d605d736f02198b902f7b17675aed85632af40a272fef5.jpg) +Fig. 8: De-zoomification Given facial keypoints of two people on a VC, FacET generates translated keypoints simulating a F2F conversation, which are then converted to pixel-space (Sec. 3.4). See supplementary for videos. + +# 4.4 Applications (de-zoomification) + +We showed in our results that VC $\rightarrow$ F2F is more than just changing the eye gaze or head pose. We call this process de-zoomification, and show that our method (explained in Sec. 3.4) can be used to convert an actual conversation that took place in a VC setting, into a F2F conversation as shown in Fig. 8. We observe that eye blinks (first frame) and smiles (last frame) in de-zoomed videos are consistent with the original. The subjects also look more toward each other in the translated video which makes it feel like a F2F conversation. This is an exciting application towards making virtual conversations feel life-like. + +# 5 Discussion & Conclusion + +Limitations & Future Work. While our method provides detailed and interpretable reports, there is still room for improvement. First, our method relies on $\beta$ -VAE for disentangling, which can introduce some noise as true disentanglement without imposing priors is hard [97]. However, our method allows easy swap of $\beta$ -VAE with better future alternatives. Second, we currently demonstrate results on human facial keypoints only. While our method is general to any keypoint data, it is non-trivial to extend our architecture to images. + +Conclusion. We addressed the task of discovering spatio-temporal patterns from unpaired facial keypoint data by presenting FacET, a generative domain translation method that is interpretable-by-design. FacET pre-computes domain agnostic, disentangled features, and learns interpretable linear transformations between domains. FacET can predict temporal change-points that decouple expression changes from time. Extensive experiments showcase FacET's ability to generate informative reports of input-specific spatio-temporal patterns between domains. Lastly, we apply these learned differences to de-zoom VC videos. + +Acknowledgements.

Do our facial expressions change when we speak over video calls? Given two unpaired sets of videos of people, we seek to automatically find spatio-temporal patterns that are distinctive of each set. Existing methods use discriminative approaches and perform post-hoc explainability analysis. Such methods are insufficient as they are unable to provide insights beyond obvious dataset biases, and the explanations are useful only if humans themselves are good at the task. Instead, we tackle the problem through the lens of generative domain translation: our method generates a detailed report of learned, input-dependent spatio-temporal features and the extent to which they vary between the domains. We demonstrate that our method can discover behavioral differences between conversing face-to-face (F2F) and on video-calls (VCs). We also show the applicability of our method on discovering differences in presidential communication styles. Additionally, we are able to predict temporal change-points in videos that decouple expressions in an unsupervised way, and increase the interpretability and usefulness of our model. Finally, our method, being generative, can be used to transform a video call to appear as if it were recorded in a F2F setting.

Recently, it was shown that the role of the teacher in knowledge distillation (KD) is to provide the student with an estimate of the true Bayes conditional probability density (BCPD). Notably, the new findings propose that the student's error rate can be upper-bounded by the mean squared error (MSE) between the teacher's output and BCPD. Consequently, to enhance KD efficacy, the teacher should be trained such that its output is close to BCPD in MSE sense. This paper elucidates that training the teacher model with MSE loss equates to minimizing the MSE between its output and BCPD, aligning with its core responsibility of providing the student with a BCPD estimate closely resembling it in MSE terms. In this respect, through a comprehensive set of experiments, we demonstrate that substituting the conventional teacher trained with cross-entropy loss with one trained using MSE loss in state-of-the-art KD methods consistently boosts the student's accuracy, resulting in improvements of up to $2.6\\%$ .

Specifically, a teacher model trained using conventional cross-entropy (CE) loss function approximates the true BCPD of the underlying dataset [21], and then it passes this estimate to the student model. As such, the enhancement in the student's accuracy within KD stems from the fact that the student utilizes the teacher's BCPD approximation to train its own model. Additionally, [26] noted that as the teacher's predictions approach the BCPD, the generalization error of the student model decreases. More importantly, [14] showed that the classification error rate of the student is directly bounded by the MSE between the teacher's output and the BCPD, as established through the Rademacher analysis. This fact was further empirically confirmed by [35] where they treated the teacher's output as a supervisory signal for the student model.

To answer to this question, in this paper, we prove that training a DNN via MSE (resp. CE) loss is equivalent to training it to minimize the expected MSE (resp. CE) between its output and the true BCPD. Hence, based on the discussions above, for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss function.

Recently, it was shown that the role of the teacher in knowledge distillation (KD) is to provide the student with an estimate of the true Bayes conditional probability density (BCPD). Notably, the new findings propose that the student's error rate can be upper-bounded by the mean squared error (MSE) between the teacher's output and BCPD. Consequently, to enhance KD efficacy, the teacher should be trained such that its output is close to BCPD in MSE sense. This paper elucidates that training the teacher model with MSE loss equates to minimizing the MSE between its output and BCPD, aligning with its core responsibility of providing the student with a BCPD estimate closely resembling it in MSE terms. In this respect, through a comprehensive set of experiments, we demonstrate that substituting the conventional teacher trained with cross-entropy loss with one trained using MSE loss in state-of-the-art KD methods consistently boosts the student's accuracy, resulting in improvements of up to \\(2.6\\%\\).

Specifically, a teacher model trained using conventional cross-entropy (CE) loss function approximates the true BCPD of the underlying dataset [21], and then it passes this estimate to the student model. As such, the enhancement in the student's accuracy within KD stems from the fact that the student utilizes the teacher's BCPD approximation to train its own model. Additionally, [26] noted that as the teacher's predictions approach the BCPD, the generalization error of the student model decreases. More importantly, [14] showed that the classification error rate of the student is directly bounded by the MSE between the teacher's output and the BCPD, as established through the Rademacher analysis. This fact was further empirically confirmed by [35] where they treated the teacher's output as a supervisory signal for the student model.

CE) between its output and the true BCPD. Hence, based on the discussions above, for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss function. We shall note that proximity in terms of MSE does not necessarily equate to proximity in terms of CE, and vice versa. Therefore, while the output of a teacher trained using CE loss serves as an estimate of the true BCPD, it may not necessarily be close to the BCPD in terms of MSE, which is essential for effective KD.

Recently, it was shown that the role of the teacher in knowledge distillation (KD) is to provide the student with an estimate of the true Bayes conditional probability density (BCPD). Notably, the new findings propose that the student's error rate can be upper-bounded by the mean squared error (MSE) between the teacher's output and BCPD. Consequently, to enhance KD efficacy, the teacher should be trained such that its output is close to BCPD in MSE sense. This paper elucidates that training the teacher model with MSE loss equates to minimizing the MSE between its output and BCPD, aligning with its core responsibility of providing the student with a BCPD estimate closely resembling it in MSE terms. In this respect, through a comprehensive set of experiments, we demonstrate that substituting the conventional teacher trained with cross-entropy loss with one trained using MSE loss in state-of-the-art KD methods consistently boosts the student's accuracy, resulting in improvements of up to $2.6\%$ . The code for this paper is publicly available at: https://github.com/ECCV2024MSE/ECCV_MSE_Teacher. + +Keywords: Knowledge distillation $\cdot$ Bayes conditional probability density $\cdot$ Mean squared error + +# 1 Introduction + +Knowledge distillation (KD), as introduced by [5] and popularized by [17], has emerged as a highly effective model compression technique, and has received significant attention from both academia and industry in recent years. At its core, KD entails the process of transferring the knowledge of a cumbersome model (teacher) into a lightweight counterpart (student). After the pioneering work by [17], numerous researchers have attempted to improve the performance of KD [3,30,36], and to understand why distillation works [2,14,16,26,28,34,52,52]. + +An aspect of KD that has received relatively limited attention is the training of the teacher model. In most of the existing KD methods, the teacher is typically trained to optimize its own performance, despite the fact that such optimization does not necessarily translate into enhanced student performance [13, 27]. Hence, + +to effectively train a student to attain high performance, it is crucial to align the training of the teacher accordingly. + +Recently, [26] showed that the teacher's soft predictions can act as a proxy for the unknown true Bayes conditional probability distribution (BCPD) of label $y$ given an input $x$ . Specifically, a teacher model trained using conventional cross-entropy (CE) loss function approximates the true BCPD of the underlying dataset [21], and then it passes this estimate to the student model. As such, the enhancement in the student's accuracy within KD stems from the fact that the student utilizes the teacher's BCPD approximation to train its own model. Additionally, [26] noted that as the teacher's predictions approach the BCPD, the generalization error of the student model decreases. More importantly, [14] showed that the classification error rate of the student is directly bounded by the MSE between the teacher's output and the BCPD, as established through the Rademacher analysis. This fact was further empirically confirmed by [35] where they treated the teacher's output as a supervisory signal for the student model. Hence, based on these findings, it is imperative for effective KD that the teacher is trained such that its output is close to the BCPD in the MSE sense. + +Now the question is that how the teacher model should be trained to ensure that its prediction is close to the BCPD in the MSE sense? To answer to this question, in this paper, we prove that training a DNN via MSE (resp. CE) loss is equivalent to training it to minimize the expected MSE (resp. CE) between its output and the true BCPD. Hence, based on the discussions above, for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss function. We shall note that proximity in terms of MSE does not necessarily equate to proximity in terms of CE, and vice versa. Therefore, while the output of a teacher trained using CE loss serves as an estimate of the true BCPD, it may not necessarily be close to the BCPD in terms of MSE, which is essential for effective KD. In fact, we empirically show that although the student's accuracy is almost inversely proportional to the MSE between BCPD and teacher's output, such relationship does not exist between the student's accuracy and CE between BCPD and teacher's output. + +Based on the discussions above, we claim that for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the teacher trained via MSE loss in KD, we conduct a thorough set of experiments over CIFAR-100 and ImageNet datasets, and show that by solely replacing a conventional teacher trained with CE loss by one trained with MSE loss in the existing state-of-the-art KD methods, the student's accuracy consistently increases. We shall emphasize the fact that such gain is obtained without making any changes over the underlying KD methods such as its distillation loss function or any hyper-parameters. Additionally, we observe a slight decrease in the teacher's performance when trained using MSE loss, confirming that optimizing the teacher's performance is not necessary for an effective knowledge distillation process. To summarize, the contributions of this paper are as follows + +- We show that for an effective KD, the student should be provided with an estimate of BCPD that is close to it in MSE sense; thus, as per our theorem, the teacher as a BCPD estimator should be trained via MSE loss. + +- We conduct a thorough set of experiments over CIFAR-100 and ImageNet datasets, and show that by replacing the teacher trained by CE with the one trained by MSE in the existing state-of-the-art KD methods, the student's accuracy consistently increases. + +# 2 Related works + +# 2.1 Knowledge distillation + +The concept of knowledge transfer, as a means of compression, was first introduced by [5]. Then, [17] popularized this concept by softening the teacher's and student's logits using temperature technique where the student mimics the soft probabilities of the teacher, and referred to it as KD. To improve the effectiveness of distillation, various forms of knowledge transfer methods have been introduced which could be mainly categorized into three types: (i) logit-based [4, 6, 23, 39, 55, 57], (ii) representation-based [36, 49, 53, 54], and (iii) relationship-based [25, 30, 33, 50]. + +# 2.2 Training a customized teacher for KD + +In the literature, only a few works trained teachers specifically tailored for KD. [48] attempted to train a tolerant teacher which provides more secondary information to the student. They realized this via adding an extra term to facilitating a few secondary classes to emerge to complement the primary class. [13] regularized the teacher utilizing early-stopping during the training. Nevertheless, achieving optimal results may necessitate a thorough hyperparameter search, as the epoch number for identifying the best checkpoint can be particularly sensitive to various training settings, such as the learning rate schedule. Additionally, it is feasible to save multiple early teacher checkpoints, allowing the student to be distilled from them sequentially [20]. + +In addition, [45] stated that a checkpoint in the middle of the training procedure, often serves as a better teacher compared to the fully converged model. The authors in [15] used Lipschitz regularization so that the teacher can learn the label distribution of the underlying dataset. Also [52] trained the teacher to have high conditional mutual information so that it can better predict the true BCPD. [40] trained the teachers to have more dispersed soft probabilities. + +# 2.3 Training DNNs using MSE + +Mean squared error (MSE) loss serves as a prevalent choice for training DNNs, particularly in the context of regression tasks. This loss function is widely embraced when the objective is to predict continuous values, and its formulation involves calculating the average of the squared differences between predicted + +and actual values. Despite its established efficacy in regression scenarios, the landscape of loss functions in the realm of DNNs is vast and dynamic. + +In contemporary practices, DNNs dedicated to classification tasks predominantly leverage the CE loss function. This method has gained substantial empirical favor, often surpassing MSE in the context of classification-oriented objectives. However, the empirical superiority of CE over MSE remains a topic of ongoing exploration. Notably, the existing body of literature does not uniformly advocate for a distinct advantage of CE in all scenarios. + +Recent insights, as highlighted by the study conducted by [18], challenge the prevailing notion by showcasing that models trained with MSE not only hold their ground against their CE-trained counterparts across a diverse spectrum of tasks and settings but, intriguingly, exhibit superior classification performance in the majority of experimental conditions. These findings prompt a reevaluation of the perceived hierarchy between MSE and CE, underscoring the need for nuanced considerations when selecting the most suitable loss function based on the specificities of the task at hand. In light of such empirical observations, the applicability and performance of MSE in DNN training extend beyond the traditional confines of regression, warranting a more comprehensive exploration of its utility across various domains and applications. + +# 3 Notation and Preliminaries + +# 3.1 Notation + +For a positive integer $C$ , let $[C] \triangleq \{1, \dots, C\}$ . We use bold lowercase letters (e.g., $\pmb{p}$ ) to represent vectors. Denote by $\pmb{p}[i]$ the $i$ -th element of vector $\pmb{p}$ . Also, $\{\pmb{p}[c]\}_{c \in \mathcal{C}}$ is the set of all components of $\pmb{p}$ with indices from the set $\mathcal{C}$ . For two vectors $\pmb{u}$ and $\pmb{v}$ , denote by $\pmb{u} \cdot \pmb{v}$ their inner product. We use $|\mathcal{C}|$ to denote the cardinality of a set $\mathcal{C}$ . The transpose operation is denoted by $(\cdot)^{\mathrm{T}}$ . + +The cross-entropy of two probability distributions $\pmb{p}_1$ and $\pmb{p}_2$ is defined as $H(\pmb{p}_1, \pmb{p}_2) = \sum_{c=1}^{C} -\pmb{p}_1[c] \log \pmb{p}_2[c]$ . For a random variable $x$ , denote by $\mathbb{P}_x$ its probability distribution, and by $\mathbb{E}_x[\cdot]$ the expected value operation w.r.t. $x$ . For two random variables $x$ and $y$ , denote by $\mathbb{P}_{(x,y)}$ their joint distribution. + +# 3.2 True risk Vs. empirical risk + +In a classification task with $C$ classes, a DNN could be regarded as a mapping $f_{\pmb{\theta}}: \pmb{x} \rightarrow \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}$ , where $\pmb{\theta}$ represents all the model parameters, $\pmb{x} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ is an input image, and $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}} \in \Delta^{C}$ , where $\Delta^{C}$ is the C dimensional probability simplex. Then, the classifier predicts the correct label of $\pmb{x}$ , denoted by $y$ , as $\hat{y} = \arg \max_{c \in [C]} \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}[c]$ . As such, the error rate of $f$ is defined as $\epsilon = \operatorname*{Pr}\{\hat{y} \neq y\}$ , and its accuracy is equal to $1 - \epsilon$ . One may learn such a classifier by minimizing the true risk + +$$ +\begin{array}{l} R (f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}}, \ell) \triangleq \mathbb {E} _ {(\boldsymbol {x}, \boldsymbol {y})} [ \ell (\boldsymbol {y}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}) ] = \mathbb {E} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} [ \mathbb {E} _ {\boldsymbol {y} | \boldsymbol {x}} [ \ell (\boldsymbol {y}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}) ] ] \\ = \mathbb {E} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} \left[ \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} ^ {*}\right) ^ {\mathrm {T}} \cdot \boldsymbol {\ell} \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}\right) \right], \tag {1} \\ \end{array} +$$ + +where $\ell(\cdot)$ is the loss function and $\ell(\cdot) \triangleq [\ell(1, \cdot), \ldots, \ell(C, \cdot)]$ is the vector of loss function, and $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*} \triangleq [\operatorname{Pr}(y|\pmb{x})]_{y \in [C]}$ is Bayes class probability distribution over the labels, i.e., the BCPD. + +However, in a typical deep learning algorithm, both the probability density function of $\pmb{x}$ , namely $\mathbb{P}_{\pmb{x}}$ , and also $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ are unknown. Hence, one may learn such a classifier by instead minimizing the empirical risk on a training sample $\mathcal{D} \triangleq \{(x_{n},y_{n})\}_{n = 1}^{N}$ defined as: + +$$ +R _ {\mathrm {e m p}} (f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}}, \ell) \triangleq \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {n \in [ N ]} \mathbf {y} _ {n} ^ {\mathrm {T}} \cdot \boldsymbol {\ell} \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x} _ {n}}\right), \tag {2} +$$ + +where $\mathbf{y}_n^{\mathrm{T}}$ is the one-hot vector with its $y_{n}$ -th entry set to one and all other entries set to zero. By comparing Eq. (1) and Eq. (2), we see that in Eq. (2): (i) $\mathbb{P}_{\pmb{x}}$ is approximated by $\frac{1}{N}$ , and (ii) $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ is approximated by $\mathbf{y}$ which is an unbiased estimation of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ . The former assumption is reasonable, however, the latter results in a significant loss in granularity. To delve deeper into this matter, it is crucial to recognize that images inherently carry a wealth of information, and the practice of assigning a one-hot vector to $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ tends to lead to a significant loss of this information. As we will explore further in the subsequent subsection, KD emerges as a strategy that, to some extent, alleviates this issue, providing a mechanism to better transfer the nuanced information embedded within images. + +# 3.3 Estimating BCPD by the teacher in KD + +In KD, the role of the teacher is to provide the student with a better estimate of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ compared to one-hot vectors. To elucidate, denote by $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{t}$ and $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{s}$ the pre-trained teacher's and student's outputs to sample $\pmb{x}$ , respectively. Then, the student uses the teacher's estimate of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ , and minimizes + +$$ +R _ {\mathrm {k d}} \left(f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}}, \ell\right) \triangleq \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {n \in [ N ]} \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x} _ {n}} ^ {t}\right) ^ {\mathrm {T}} \cdot \ell \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x} _ {n}} ^ {s}\right). \tag {3} +$$ + +Note that the one-hot vector $\mathbf{y}_n$ in Eq. (2) is now replaced by the teacher's output probability $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}_n}^t$ in Eq. (3). In fact, the effectiveness of KD lies in the fact that $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}_n}^t$ serves as a better estimate of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ compared to the one-hot vector $\mathbf{y}_n^{\mathrm{T}}$ . + +# 3.4 Student's generalization error and accuracy + +In this subsection, our objective is to identify the key characteristics that the estimated BCPD should possess in order to enhance the accuracy of the student + +As shown by [26], the student's generalization error is upper-bounded as + +$$ +\mathbb {E} \left[ (R _ {\mathrm {k d}} (f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}}, \ell) - R (f _ {\boldsymbol {\theta}}, \ell)) ^ {2} \right] \leq \frac {1}{N} \operatorname {V a r} \left[ (\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} ^ {t}) ^ {\mathrm {T}} \cdot \boldsymbol {\ell} (\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}) \right] + \kappa \left(\mathbb {E} \left[ \| \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} ^ {t} - \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} ^ {*} \| \right]\right) ^ {2}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\kappa$ is a positive constant number. When $N$ is large, which is commonly the case for datasets in existing literature, the second term will dominate the + +right-hand side of Eq. (4). This implies that smaller average $\| \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{t} - \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}\|_{2}$ will lead to $R_{\mathrm{emp}}(f_{\pmb{\theta}})$ being a better approximation of the true risk $R(f_{\pmb{\theta}})$ , minimizing it should then lead to a better learned model. + +On the other hand, [35] empirically showed that the accuracy of the student is almost inversely proportional to $\| \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{t} - \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}\|$ . In addition, [14] showed that the accuracy of the student is directly bounded by the MSE between teacher's prediction and BCPD through the Rademacher analysis. + +Therefore, the quality of the estimates provided by the teacher to the student can be measured by the MSE between its output and to the true $p_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ . Based on this, in the next section, we show that for an effective KD, the teacher should be indeed trained via MSE loss, and not CE loss. + +# 4 Methodology + +In this section, first in Sec. 4.1, we introduce a theorem demonstrating that training a DNN model with MSE (CE) loss function results in minimizing the MSE (CE) between its output and the BCPD. Then, in Sec. 4.2, we use a synthetic dataset to empirically validate the introduced theorem, and to show that (i) closeness in MSE sense does not necessarily mean closeness in CE sense, and (ii) for an effective KD the teacher's output should be close to the true BCPD in MSE sense. Then, we conclude that the teacher should be trained via MSE loss function. + +# 4.1 MSE loss Vs. CE loss + +In a classification task with $C$ classes, it has been shown that the risk in Eq. (1), for $\ell = \{\mathrm{CE},\mathrm{MSE}\}$ , is minimized when $\pmb {p}_{\pmb{x}} = \pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ [21]. However, since the underlying $\mathbb{P}_{(\pmb {x},y)}$ is unknown, the DNNs are trained to minimize the empirical risk in Eq. (2), and consequently they can only approximate the true BCPD3. + +Hence, a teacher trained by either CE or MSE can approximate the true BCPD. However, it is crucial to note that these two estimates differ, as precisely established in the following theorem. + +Theorem 1. For $\ell = \{CE, MSE\}$ + +$$ +\underset {\theta} {\min } \mathbb {E} _ {(\boldsymbol {x}, y)} \left[ \ell (y, \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}) \right] \equiv \underset {\theta} {\min } \mathbb {E} _ {(\boldsymbol {x}, y)} \left[ \ell \left(\boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}} ^ {*}, \boldsymbol {p} _ {\boldsymbol {x}}\right) \right]. \tag {5} +$$ + +Proof. Please refer to the Supplementary materials. + +Theorem 1 implies that when minimizing the expected loss, the resulting model attempts to generate outputs that closely approximate those of an "ideal" model. More importantly, this degree of closeness is quantified by the loss function. Specifically, (i) if $\ell = \mathrm{MSE}$ then a model trained to minimize the expected squared + +error between $y$ and $p_x$ will generate outputs that minimize the expected squared error between $p_x^*$ and $p_x$ ; and (ii) if $\ell = \mathrm{CE}$ then a model trained to minimize the expected cross-entropy between $y$ and $p_x$ will generate outputs that minimize the expected cross-entropy between $p_x^*$ and $p_x$ . + +Thus, the BCPD estimates provided by the teachers trained by CE loss and MSE loss are different; in that, the former estimate is close to the true BCPD in CE sense, also the latter estimate is close to the true BCPD in MSE sense. In the next subsection, we empirically show that for the student to have high accuracy, the teacher's estimate should be close to the true BCPD in MSE sense, rather than in CE sense. + +# 4.2 MSE proximity Vs. CE proximity + +In this subsection, our intention is two-fold: (i) we aim to empirically show that although the student's accuracy is almost inversely proportional to the MSE between BCPD and teacher's output (as also demonstrated by [14, 35]), such relationship does not exist between the student's accuracy and CE between BCPD and teacher's output; and (ii) to empirically validate Theorem 1. Toward this aim, since the true BCPD is unknown for the popular datasets in the literature, we generate a synthetic dataset whose BCPD is known. + +- Generating dataset: Inspired from [35], we generate a 3-class toy Gaussian dataset with $10^{5}$ data points. The dataset is divided into training, validation, and test sets with a split ratio $[0.9, 0.05, 0.05]$ . + +The sampling process is implemented as follows: we first choose the label $y$ using a uniform distribution across all the 3 classes. Next, we sample $x|_{y=k} \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu_k, \sigma^2 I)$ as the input signal. Here, $\mu_k$ is a 30-dim vector with entries randomly selected from $\{-\delta_\mu, 0, \delta_\mu\}$ . Then, we calculate the BCPD of the samples using the fact that $p^*(y|\boldsymbol{x}) \propto p(\boldsymbol{x}|y)p(y)$ . Particularly, as $y$ follows uniform distribution, we have $p^*(y|\boldsymbol{x}) = \frac{\boldsymbol{p}(\boldsymbol{x}|y=k)}{\sum_{j \neq k} p(\boldsymbol{x}|y=j)}$ . Following $\boldsymbol{p}(\boldsymbol{x}|y=k) \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu_k, \sigma^2 I)$ , we find $\boldsymbol{p}^*(y|\boldsymbol{x})$ should have a Softmax form as + +$$ +\boldsymbol {p} ^ {*} (y = k | \boldsymbol {x}) = \frac {\exp \left(s _ {k}\right)}{\sum_ {j \neq k} \exp \left(s _ {j}\right)}; \quad s _ {i} = - \frac {1}{2 \sigma^ {2}} \| \boldsymbol {x} - \mu_ {i} \| _ {2} ^ {2}. \tag {6} +$$ + +- Training setup: The underlying model (for both teacher and student) is a 3-layer MLP with ReLU activation function, and the hidden size is 128 for each layer. We set the learning rate as $5 \times 10^{-4}$ , the batch size as 32, and the number of training epochs is 100. In our experiments, we set $\sigma = 4$ and $\delta_{\mu} = 1$ . + +Now, we conduct two sets of experiments as elaborated in the sequel. + +Set 1: the student's accuracy as a function of $\mathrm{MSE}(p_x^*, p_x)$ and $\mathrm{CE}(p_x^*, p_x)$ . Here, we conduct some experiments to understand which type of proximity, i.e., whether proximity in CE sense or MSE sense, is better for the sake of the student accuracy. To this end, we generate 100 perturbed/noisy versions of $p_x^*$ by adding some random noise to it, and denote any such perturbed version by $\tilde{p}_x^*$ . + +![](images/7e2d622fca85a492eac2260243720a2ce75048509192b168b00dafb46710c94a.jpg) +Fig. 1: Student accuracy as a function of (left) the MSE between $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}$ ; and (right) CE between $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}$ . The gray dots are noisy versions of the true $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}$ . Also, the red and blue dots represent the points corresponding to the estimates provided by MSE and CE teachers, respectively. + +![](images/57f93c9a6862ad60e7de5deaa0997d8eca51e0511a9d4893074f25b00f312773.jpg) + +Then, we train the student 100 times, each time using one of the noisy $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ , i.e., each time the student is trained via loss Eq. (3) with $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}_n}^t$ replaced by $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ . The resulting student's accuracy corresponding to these 100 noisy BCPD is depicted in Fig. 1, where in the left and right figure we set x-axis to the MSE and CE between the $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ , respectively (the points corresponding to noisy $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ are denoted by gray dots). + +As seen in Fig. 1, the student's accuracy is almost inversely proportional to the MSE between $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ . Consequently, the teacher can enhance the student's performance by providing it with an estimate of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ that is closer to it in MSE sense. On the other hand, as seen in the right figure depicted in Fig. 1, such relationship does not exist; in that, minimizing the CE between $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ does not necessarily increase the student's performance. + +Set 2: empirically validating Theorem 1. The previous set of experiments showed that the student's accuracy can be improved if it is given a BCPD estimate which is close to $p_{x}^{*}$ in MSE sense. Here, we aim to empirically validate the Theorem 1, and therefore based on our discussions above, the teacher should be trained via MSE loss. + +Hence, we train the teacher 10 times using MSE loss, and 10 times using CE loss. We denote the teacher's estimate of $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ by $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x},\mathrm{MSE}}^{*}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x},\mathrm{CE}}^{*}$ when it is trained by CE and MSE losses, respectively. + +Now, once again we train the student using these two types of estimate (10 estimates for each type) and record the student's accuracy. The results are depicted in Fig. 1, where we used red and blue dots to show the points corresponding to $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x},\mathrm{MSE}}^{*}$ and $\tilde{\pmb{p}}_{\pmb{x},\mathrm{CE}}^{*}$ estimates, respectively. + +Observing the two figures we can conclude that (i) training the teacher using MSE/CE loss yields the BCPD estimate which is close to $\pmb{p}_{\pmb{x}}^{*}$ in MSE/CE sense; + +(ii) the closeness in CE and MSE sense is rather different; and (iii) the teacher trained via MSE loss results in a better performance for the student model. + +Lastly, we provide a toy example to understand why proximity in MSE sense is different from that in CE sense. Assume that the true BCPD is $\pmb{p}^{*} = [0.3, 0.7]$ . Consider the following two estimates of the BCPD. + +- Estimate 1, $E_1 = [0.29, 0.71]$ . Here $\mathrm{MSE}(\pmb{p}^*, E_1) = 0.01$ and $\mathrm{CE}(\pmb{p}^*, E_1) = 0.610$ . +- Estimate 2, $E_{2} = [0.2,0.8]$ . Here $\mathrm{MSE}(\pmb{p}^{*},E_{2}) = 0.10$ and $\mathrm{CE}(\pmb{p}^{*},E_{2}) = 0.51$ . + +In the CE sense, $E_{2}$ is a superior estimator of $\pmb{p}^{*}$ . However, from the standpoint of MSE, $E_{1}$ is a more accurate representation of $\pmb{p}^{*}$ . Consequently, if a DNN is trained using the CE loss, it tends to produce an output akin to $E_{2}$ which is at a relatively greater distance from the true distribution $\pmb{p}^{*}$ in the MSE sense. + +# 5 Experiments + +We conclude the paper with extensive experiments demonstrating the superior effectiveness of MSE teacher compared to CE teacher in different state-of-the-art KD methods. The outcomes of these experiments collectively contribute to a compelling argument for the preferential utilization of MSE teachers in the KD variants. + +- Terminology: Hereafter, we refer to teachers trained by the CE and MSE losses as the "CE teacher" and "MSE teacher", respectively. +- Organization: The experiments are organized as follows: in Sec. 5.1 and Sec. 5.2, we conduct experiments on CIFAR-100 dataset; also Sec. 5.3 provides experiments on ImageNet dataset. In Sec. 5.4, we compare MSE and CE teachers in the semi-supervised distillation task. Lastly, we evaluate the performance of MSE teacher in binary classification knowledge distillation task in Sec. 5.5. +- Plug-and-play nature of MSE teacher: In all the experiments conducted in this section, when evaluating the performance of the MSE teacher, we refrain from tuning any hyper-parameters in the underlying knowledge transfer methods, i.e., all hyper-parameters remain the same as those used in the corresponding benchmark methods. We present the classification accuracies on the test set for both the teacher model and its distilled student model. + +In addition, we should note that for training the MSE teacher, we use the same training setup as that used for the CE loss. One may further improve our results by further tuning the training hyper-parameters. In addition, similarly to the conventional KD methods, we use the same teacher for different students, without adjusting the teacher based on the specifics of each student model. + +Table 1: The test accuracy (\%) of student networks on CIFAR-100 (averaged over 5 runs), with teacher-student pairs of the same/different architectures.

In this experimental setup, although the dataset consists of 50,000 training images, only a small percentage of them are labeled—specifically, $1\%$ (500), $2\%$ (1000), $4\%$ (2000), and $8\%$ (4000). The outcomes are visualized in Fig. 2, where the student accuracy is plotted against the number of labeled samples. The results are averaged over three independent runs. As observed, the results demonstrate that not only can the MSE teacher effectively perform in a semi-supervised distillation scenario, but it also surpasses the performance of the CE teacher. + +# 5.5 Binary classification on customized CIFAR-\{10, 100\} + +The common understanding is that the enhancement in the accuracy of a student model in binary classification tends to be more modest compared to that observed in multi-class classification scenarios. This discrepancy arises due to the inherent limitations on the amount of information transferred from the teacher to the student network in binary classification settings, as documented in several studies [10, 29, 38, 43, 44, 47]. + +In this section, we want to empirically verify the effectiveness of MSE teacher in binary classification tasks. To this end, we create three binary classification datasets from CIFAR-\{10, 100\} datasets as explained in the sequel. + +- Dataset 1: Following a similar approach to that described in [29], we construct the CIFAR $-2 \times 5$ dataset, wherein the input distribution exhibits a "sub-classes" structure. Specifically, we merge the first 5 classes of CIFAR-10 to form class one, while the remaining 5 classes constitute class two. +- Dataset 2: We keep the training/testing samples from only two classes in the CIFAR-100 dataset: those belonging to class 20 and class 40, creating a dataset referred to as CIFAR-20-40. +- Dataset 3: Similar to dataset 2, but we keep class 50 and 70 from CIFAR-100, which we refer to as CIFAR-50-70. + +Now, we use VGG-13 and MobileNetv2-0.1 as the teacher and student models, respectively; and use conventional KD, AT, CC and VID to distill knowledge from CE and MSE teachers to the student. + +The results for all three tasks are summarized in Tab. 4, with the reported values representing the average across five distinct runs. As seen, the MSE teacher yields a better student's accuracy all the cases. Also, it is worth noting that in some cases, for instance, AT over CIFAR $-2 \times 5$ dataset, the distillation method hurts the accuracy of the student. + +Table 4: The student's accuracy (\%) in binary classification knowledge distillation on variants of CIFAR dataset.

+ +# 6 Conclusion + +This paper elucidated the significance of training the teacher model with MSE loss, which effectively minimizes the MSE between its output and BCPD. This approach aligns with the core responsibility of the teacher, namely, providing the student with a BCPD estimate that closely resembles it in terms of MSE. Through a comprehensive series of experiments, we demonstrated the efficacy of substituting the conventional teacher trained with CE loss with one trained using MSE loss in state-of-the-art KD methods. Notably, this substitution consistently enhanced the student's accuracy, leading to improvements of up to $2.6\%$ . In addition, we empirically showed the superior performance of MSE teacher in semi-supervised distillation task. + +# References + +1.

Recently, it was shown that the role of the teacher in knowledge distillation (KD) is to provide the student with an estimate of the true Bayes conditional probability density (BCPD). Notably, the new findings propose that the student's error rate can be upper-bounded by the mean squared error (MSE) between the teacher's output and BCPD. Consequently, to enhance KD efficacy, the teacher should be trained such that its output is close to BCPD in MSE sense. This paper elucidates that training the teacher model with MSE loss equates to minimizing the MSE between its output and BCPD, aligning with its core responsibility of providing the student with a BCPD estimate closely resembling it in MSE terms.

Specifically, a teacher model trained using conventional cross-entropy (CE) loss function approximates the true BCPD of the underlying dataset [21], and then it passes this estimate to the student model. As such, the enhancement in the student's accuracy within KD stems from the fact that the student utilizes the teacher's BCPD approximation to train its own model. Additionally, [26] noted that as the teacher's predictions approach the BCPD, the generalization error of the student model decreases. More importantly, [14] showed that the classification error rate of the student is directly bounded by the MSE between the teacher's output and the BCPD, as established through the Rademacher analysis. This fact was further empirically confirmed by [35] where they treated the teacher's output as a supervisory signal for the student model. Hence, based on these findings, it is imperative for effective KD that the teacher is trained such that its output is close to the BCPD in the MSE sense." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 3 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 320, + 482, + 475 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 320, + 482, + 475 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 320, + 482, + 475 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Now the question is that how the teacher model should be trained to ensure that its prediction is close to the BCPD in the MSE sense? To answer to this question, in this paper, we prove that training a DNN via MSE (resp. CE) loss is equivalent to training it to minimize the expected MSE (resp. CE) between its output and the true BCPD. Hence, based on the discussions above, for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss function. We shall note that proximity in terms of MSE does not necessarily equate to proximity in terms of CE, and vice versa. Therefore, while the output of a teacher trained using CE loss serves as an estimate of the true BCPD, it may not necessarily be close to the BCPD in terms of MSE, which is essential for effective KD. In fact, we empirically show that although the student's accuracy is almost inversely proportional to the MSE between BCPD and teacher's output, such relationship does not exist between the student's accuracy and CE between BCPD and teacher's output." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 476, + 482, + 620 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 476, + 482, + 620 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 476, + 482, + 620 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Based on the discussions above, we claim that for an effective KD, the teacher should be trained using MSE loss.

We shall emphasize the fact that such gain is obtained without making any changes over the underlying KD methods such as its distillation loss function or any hyper-parameters.

Instructional videos are a common source for learning text-video or even multimodal representations by leveraging subtitles extracted with automatic speech recognition systems (ASR) from the audio signal in the videos. However, in contrast to human-annotated captions, both speech and subtitles naturally differ from the visual content of the videos and thus provide only noisy supervision. As a result, large-scale annotation-free web video training data remains sub-optimal for training text-video models. In this work, we propose to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to obtain high-quality video descriptions aligned with videos at scale. Specifically, we prompt an LLM to create plausible video captions based on ASR subtitles of instructional videos. To this end, we introduce a prompting method that is able to take into account a longer text of subtitles, allowing us to capture the contextual information beyond one single sentence. We further prompt the LLM to generate timestamps for each produced caption based on the timestamps of the subtitles and finally align the generated captions to the video temporally. In this way, we obtain human-style video captions at scale without human supervision. We apply our method to the subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset, creating a new large-scale dataset, HowToCaption. Our evaluation shows that the resulting captions not only significantly improve the performance over many different benchmark datasets for zero-shot text-video retrieval and video captioning, but also lead to a disentangling of textual narration from the audio, boosting the performance in text-video-audio tasks. $^{1}$", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 335, + 743, + 667 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Keywords: Video-Language Dataset $\\cdot$ LLM $\\cdot$ Instructional Videos", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 681, + 712, + 696 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 723, + 375, + 739 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Textual descriptions of visual information allow for navigating large amounts of visual data.

Most of these videos include some narrations, e.g., in instructional videos [33], people explain and show how to accomplish one or another task. To transform spoken language from the videos into subtitles, current automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems [40] can be used, providing aligned text-video annotated pairs for free. This automatic supervisory signal can easily scale to large video datasets. However, such video web data poses additional challenges [16, 33]: (1) spoken and visual information in the video can deviate from each other, e.g., when speakers provide information beyond what is visible or when spoken instructions do not temporally align with the actions shown, (2) speech contains filler words and phrases, such as \"I'm going to\", and can be incomplete and contain grammatical errors, and (3) ASR transcripts usually do not have punctuation and may contain errors (Fig. 1).

Therefore, different methods of mining videos with weak supervision from the Internet were considered. Datasets such as YouTube-8M [1] and IG-Kinetics-65M [15] provided multiple class labels based on query clicks, metadata [1] or hashtags [15].

Then, we describe our request, what data we need to process, and how it should be processed: \"I will give you an automatically recognized speech...\" We found structuring the prompt in the way that the task description given at the beginning of the prompt and the long ASR input $S_{n}$ at the end is beneficial. Then, we give detailed instructions about how to process ASR subtitles. We found that instructions such as \"Write only short sentences\" or \"Describe only one action per sentence\" are beneficial, as they encourage the creation of concise captions that better match the video content. The instruction \"Keep only actions that happen in the present time\" is intended to filter out unrelated chats, advice, or comments from the captions; we observed that it also resulted in performance enhancements.

It is known that instructional video datasets, e.g., HowTo100M, suffer from a high correlation of audio modality to a textual description, therefore hindering building a text-video+audio retrieval system where the video is extended with audio [34, 47]. The usage of ASR narrations as supervisory textual description leads retrieval models to primarily perform speech recognition on the audio, hindering true language-audio connections [47]. Therefore, training text-video+audio systems on such datasets usually requires additional regularization, such as shifting audio timestamps or assigning lower weights to the audio loss [47]. Our HowToCaption dataset resolves this issue by providing richer textual descriptions, allowing us to train a text-video+audio retrieval system without regularization. To evaluate this, we train a multimodal Everything-At-One (EAO) [47] model that learns to fuse any combinations of text, video, and audio modalities on our proposed How-ToCaption dataset without any additional regularization and evaluate zero-shot text-video+audio retrieval performance.

We adapt the image encoder to the video encoder similarly to our retrieval model (Sec. 3.2) and use similar hyperparameters (see the supplement). Subsequently, we fine-tune the model with language modeling loss on the training set of either YouCook2, MSR-VTT, or MSVD datasets and evaluate video captioning performance.

Instructional videos are a common source for learning text-video or even multimodal representations by leveraging subtitles extracted with automatic speech recognition systems (ASR) from the audio signal in the videos. However, in contrast to human-annotated captions, both speech and subtitles naturally differ from the visual content of the videos and thus provide only noisy supervision. As a result, large-scale annotation-free web video training data remains sub-optimal for training text-video models. In this work, we propose to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to obtain high-quality video descriptions aligned with videos at scale. Specifically, we prompt an LLM to create plausible video captions based on ASR subtitles of instructional videos. To this end, we introduce a prompting method that is able to take into account a longer text of subtitles, allowing us to capture the contextual information beyond one single sentence. We further prompt the LLM to generate timestamps for each produced caption based on the timestamps of the subtitles and finally align the generated captions to the video temporally. In this way, we obtain human-style video captions at scale without human supervision. We apply our method to the subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset, creating a new large-scale dataset, HowToCaption. Our evaluation shows that the resulting captions not only significantly improve the performance over many different benchmark datasets for zero-shot text-video retrieval and video captioning, but also lead to a disentangling of textual narration from the audio, boosting the performance in text-video-audio tasks.\\(^{1}\\)" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.262, + 0.682, + 0.713, + 0.697 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: Video-Language Dataset \\(\\cdot\\) LLM \\(\\cdot\\) Instructional Videos" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.724, + 0.377, + 0.74 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.757, + 0.788, + 0.803 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Textual descriptions of visual information allow for navigating large amounts of visual data.

To collect video data on a similar scale, media platforms such as YouTube can be used as a great source of freely available videos [1, 33, 48, 59, 65, 67]. Most of these videos include some narrations, e.g., in instructional videos [33], people explain and show how to accomplish one or another task. To transform spoken language from the videos into subtitles, current automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems [40] can be used, providing aligned text-video annotated pairs for free. This automatic supervisory signal can easily scale to large video datasets. However, such video web data poses additional challenges [16, 33]: (1) spoken and visual information in the video can deviate from each other, e.g., when speakers provide information beyond what is visible or when spoken instructions do not temporally align with the actions shown, (2) speech contains filler words and phrases, such as \"I'm going to\", and can be incomplete and contain grammatical errors, and (3) ASR transcripts usually do not have punctuation and may contain errors (Fig. 1).

Notably, incorporating key phrases such as \"Write only short sentences\" or \"Describe only one action per sentence\" leads to performance improvements on 3 out of 4 datasets. Additionally, the use of the phrase \"Keep only actions that happen in the present time\" also results in performance enhancements.

It is known that instructional video datasets, e.g., HowTo100M, suffer from a high correlation of audio modality to a textual description, therefore hindering building a text-video+audio retrieval system where the video is extended with audio [34, 47]. The usage of ASR narrations as supervisory textual description leads retrieval models to primarily perform speech recognition on the audio, hindering true language-audio connections [47]. Therefore, training text-video+audio systems on such datasets usually requires additional regularization, such as shifting audio timestamps or assigning lower weights to the audio loss [47]. Our HowToCaption dataset resolves this issue by providing richer textual descriptions, allowing us to train a text-video+audio retrieval system without regularization. To evaluate this, we train a multimodal Everything-At-One (EAO) [47] model that learns to fuse any combinations of text, video, and audio modalities on our proposed How-ToCaption dataset without any additional regularization and evaluate zero-shot text-video+audio retrieval performance.

We adapt the image encoder to the video encoder similarly to our retrieval model (Sec. 3.2) and use similar hyperparameters (see the supplement). Subsequently, we fine-tune the model with language modeling loss on the training set of either YouCook2, MSR-VTT, or MSVD datasets and evaluate video captioning performance.

We demonstrate that our HowToCaption dataset serves as an excellent source for training video-language representation and video captioning models across four text-video retrieval and three video captioning benchmarks.

Instructional videos are a common source for learning text-video or even multimodal representations by leveraging subtitles extracted with automatic speech recognition systems (ASR) from the audio signal in the videos. However, in contrast to human-annotated captions, both speech and subtitles naturally differ from the visual content of the videos and thus provide only noisy supervision. As a result, large-scale annotation-free web video training data remains sub-optimal for training text-video models. In this work, we propose to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to obtain high-quality video descriptions aligned with videos at scale. Specifically, we prompt an LLM to create plausible video captions based on ASR subtitles of instructional videos. To this end, we introduce a prompting method that is able to take into account a longer text of subtitles, allowing us to capture the contextual information beyond one single sentence. We further prompt the LLM to generate timestamps for each produced caption based on the timestamps of the subtitles and finally align the generated captions to the video temporally. In this way, we obtain human-style video captions at scale without human supervision. We apply our method to the subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset, creating a new large-scale dataset, HowToCaption. Our evaluation shows that the resulting captions not only significantly improve the performance over many different benchmark datasets for zero-shot text-video retrieval and video captioning, but also lead to a disentangling of textual narration from the audio, boosting the performance in text-video-audio tasks. $^{1}$ + +Keywords: Video-Language Dataset $\cdot$ LLM $\cdot$ Instructional Videos + +# 1 Introduction + +Textual descriptions of visual information allow for navigating large amounts of visual data. Recently, image-text cross-modal learning has achieved remarkable performance in many downstream tasks by pre-training on large-scale web + +![](images/b2ef96a638411e15f8bf352b07dca99043089cd15c514bec05e7246afb49b6db.jpg) +Fig. 1: ASR subtitles deviate from human-written captions: they contain a lot of filler phrases, e.g., "we're going to", and extra information, e.g., "they make dog toothbrushes". We propose to generate human-style video captions based on the ASR subtitles and their timestamps that we further temporally realign with the video. + +datasets consisting of text-image pairs [18, 39, 45]. To collect video data on a similar scale, media platforms such as YouTube can be used as a great source of freely available videos [1, 33, 48, 59, 65, 67]. Most of these videos include some narrations, e.g., in instructional videos [33], people explain and show how to accomplish one or another task. To transform spoken language from the videos into subtitles, current automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems [40] can be used, providing aligned text-video annotated pairs for free. This automatic supervisory signal can easily scale to large video datasets. However, such video web data poses additional challenges [16, 33]: (1) spoken and visual information in the video can deviate from each other, e.g., when speakers provide information beyond what is visible or when spoken instructions do not temporally align with the actions shown, (2) speech contains filler words and phrases, such as "I'm going to", and can be incomplete and contain grammatical errors, and (3) ASR transcripts usually do not have punctuation and may contain errors (Fig. 1). Therefore, ASR subtitles provide only weak, noisy supervision for videos. + +To address this problem, we propose a new framework, HowToCaption, that leverages large language models (LLMs) [10] to generate human-style captions on a large scale for web-video instructional datasets based on corresponding ASR subtitles (Fig. 1). By carefully designing prompts, we show that the LLM can effectively map long, noisy subtitles into concise and descriptive human-style video captions. Moreover, we obtain an initial temporal alignment of the generated captions to the video based on the ASR timestamps by tasking the LLM to predict timestamps for each caption. For additional quality improvement, we apply alignment and filtering within short temporal windows with respect to the predicted timestamp. This approach can generate aligned text-video pairs on a large scale without any human intervention. + +Beyond providing better annotation, the new captions provide the advantage that they are no longer a direct output of the speech signal, thus effectively decoupling audio and text. Current methods usually avoid using audio [16, 32], + +as the ASR subtitles are directly derived from the speech, thus leading to the problem that any text-to-audio+video retrieval would mainly retrieve the closest speech signal while disregarding the video [34,47]. Being able to generate captions that deviate from the speech thus allows to extend retrieval to audio+video without the need for fine-tuned regularization, as used in [47]. + +To verify the effectiveness of the proposed HowToCaption method, we generate new captions for the large-scale HowTo100M dataset [33], obtaining a new HowToCaption dataset. We evaluate the quality of the improved textual descriptions on various challenging downstream tasks over four different datasets, namely YouCook2 [67], MSR-VTT [58], MSVD [8], and LSMDC [43]. It shows that the generated captions not only provide a better training signal but also allow for a decoupling of speech and caption annotation, allowing a retrieval based on audio, vision, and subtitles at scale. We release the new HowToCaption dataset with high-quality textual descriptions to show the potential of generated captions for web text-video pairs. We summarize the contributions of the paper as follows: + +- We propose a HowToCaption method to efficiently convert noisy ASR subtitles of instructional videos into accurate video captions, which leverages recent advances in LLMs and generates high-quality video captions at scale without any human supervision. +- We create a new HowToCaption dataset with high-quality human-style textual descriptions with our proposed HowToCaption method. +- Utilizing the HowToCaption dataset for training text-video models allows us to significantly improve the performance over many benchmarks for text-to-video retrieval and video captioning. Moreover, since the new textual annotation allows us to disentangle audio and language modalities in the instructional videos, where the ASR subtitles were highly correlated to audio, we show a boost in text-video+audio retrieval performance. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 Large-Scale Video-Language Datasets + +Manual annotation of video captioning datasets is extremely time-consuming since it involves video trimming and localization of caption boundaries. Currently, manually annotated datasets, e.g., MSR-VTT [58], YouCook2 [67], HIREST [64], and HT-Step [2], are limited in size. Therefore, different methods of mining videos with weak supervision from the Internet were considered. Datasets such as YouTube-8M [1] and IG-Kinetics-65M [15] provided multiple class labels based on query clicks, metadata [1] or hashtags [15]. However, short class labels are suboptimal supervision compared to textual descriptions [12]. Therefore, Bain et al. [4] considered scrapping videos with associated alt-text from the web, obtaining the WebVid2M and WebVid10M datasets [4] with 2M and 10M video-text pairs, respectively. Stroud et al. [48] proposed to use meta information, such as titles, descriptions, and tags from YouTube, as a textual + +annotation and created the WTS-70M dataset. Nagrani et al. [34] proposed to transfer image captions from an image-text dataset to videos by searching videos with similar frames to an image and collected the VideoCC3M dataset. Yang et al. [61] created the VidChapters-7M dataset by scraping user-annotated chapters on YouTube. However, most videos in WebVid do not have audio, which is an essential part of video analysis, and captions in VideoCC3M are derived from images and, therefore, tend to describe more static scenes rather than actions. At the same time, the title, tags, and chapters of WTS-70M and VidChapters-7M provide only high-level video descriptions. + +As an alternative to this, Miech et al. [33] proposed the HowTo100M dataset, where instructional videos are naturally accompanied by dense textual supervision in the form of subtitles obtained from ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) systems. The HowTo100M dataset with 137M clips sourced from 1.2M YouTube videos was proven to be effective for pre-training video-audio-language representations [7,44,47]. The followed-up YT-Temporal-180M [65] and HD-VILA100M [59] datasets follow the same idea but contain more videos with higher diversity and higher video resolution. While ASR supervision provides a scalable way to create large datasets with dense annotation, the quality of subtitles is not on par with human-annotated captions. In this work, we propose a method to create high-quality captions for videos at scale by leveraging LLM and subtitles. + +Recent works, InternVid [56], VAST [9], and Video-ChatGPT [31], collect large-scale video-text datasets through per-frame image captioning and text summarization with LLMs. In contrast, our work stands apart in its objective. Rather than distilling existing knowledge from image models, pre-trained on human-annotated image-text data, into videos, we aim to gather a dataset enriched with new video knowledge. This is achieved by converting freely available ASR subtitles into captions. Concurrent work, HowToStep [23], summarizes ASR subtitles into descriptive steps using LLM and then performs additional temporal realignment. Our main difference is that we focus on general video captions rather than procedural steps. + +# 2.2 Learning with Noisy ASR Subtitles of Instructional Videos + +The problem of misalignment and noisiness of ASR supervision in instructional videos, e.g., in the HowTo100M dataset, were addressed in multiple works. MILNCE loss [32] and soft max-margin ranking loss [3] were proposed to adapt contrastive loss to misalignment in text-video pairs. Zellers et al. [65] proposed to use LLM to add punctuation and capitalization to ASR subtitles and remove mistranscription errors. Han et al. [16] proposed to train temporal alignment networks to filter out subtitles that are not alignable to the video and determine alignment for the others. However, to the best of our knowledge, [27] is the only work that goes beyond just removing mistranscription errors and ASR realignment, where Lin et al. proposed to match subtitles to step descriptions from WikiHow dataset [19] (distant supervision). In our work, we propose to use LLM to create video captions given ASR subtitles, which allows us to create detailed descriptions that are specific for every video and have proper sentence structure. + +# 2.3 LLMs in Vision-Language Tasks + +In recent years, there has been a remarkable success of LLMs in many language-related tasks [13,41,42]. Latest large language models [10,35,53,54] have demonstrated excellent zero-shot capabilities on common-sense inference [5]. This success has prompted research into integrating common-sense knowledge into vision-language tasks. In this regard, some methods [29,49-51] initialize the language part of vision-language models from pre-trained LLM. Another line of work [11,21,28,66] uses LLM as a decoder to enable vision-to-language generation. Works [24,66] adapted visually conditioned LLM for visual captioning and created captioning pseudo-labels for large-scale video data. However, these methods require human-annotated datasets to train a captioning model, while our method does not require any label data and aims to transform free available annotation (ASR subtitles) into textual descriptions. + +# 3 Method + +# 3.1 Problem Statement + +Given a dataset of $N$ untrimmed long-term instructional videos $V_{n}$ with corresponding noisy ASR subtitles $S_{n}$ , our goal is to create "human-written-like" video captions $C_n$ (with $1 \leq n \leq N$ ). Note that our task does not assume access to any paired training data $((V_{n}, S_{n}), C_{n})$ . The goal is to create the video captions $C_n$ in a zero-shot setting given only videos and subtitles $(V_{n}, S_{n})$ . More formally, for each given video $V_{n}$ , we also have a set of subtitles of spoken text in the video, $S_{n} = \{s_{n,j}, t_{n,j}^{s}, t_{n,j}^{e}\}_{j \leq |S_{n}|}$ with their start $t^s$ and end timestamps $t^e$ recognized by ASR-systems. For each video $V_{n}$ , our goal is to generate dense captions and their timestamps $C_n = \{c_{n,i}, \tau_{n,i}^s, \tau_{n,i}^e\}_{i \leq |C_n|}$ , where each caption $c_{n,i}$ describes a segment of the video, that starts at $\tau_{n,i}^s$ and ends at $\tau_{n,i}^e$ . + +The generated captions aim to serve for video-language or video-language- $\{$ other modalities (e.g., audio) $\}$ tasks, providing language supervision in the form of human-style captions rather than scrambled noisy ASR subtitles. That enables the potential of collecting large-scale datasets with long-term videos and their dense textual descriptions for free, without human supervision. + +# 3.2 Video-Language Retrieval Model + +Before we describe our method for generating the HowToCaption dataset, we will briefly recap the video-language retrieval models (V-L model), as it is one of the main use cases for this dataset. Moreover, we also use a V-L model to improve the temporal alignment in the dataset. + +We base our video-language retrieval model (V-L model) on the pre-trained BLIP image-language dual-encoder model [22]. We maintain the architecture of the text encoder $f(c) \in \mathbb{R}^d$ but, following CLIP4CLIP [30], adapt the image encoder $g(I)$ to a video encoder by averaging image embeddings obtained from uniformly sampled frames of the video: $g(V_{n}) = \sum_{I \in V_{n}} g(I) \in \mathbb{R}^{d}$ . Dual-encoder + +![](images/2f790842078b9cf9bbad082817c7dbb9c093516f860980364a9314c0e50d007d.jpg) +Fig. 2: Schematic visualization of the proposed HowToCaption method. Obtained from the automatic speech recognition system (ASR), subtitles are divided into blocks that contain longer contextual information. A large pre-trained language model is then used to generate plausible video captions based on ASR subtitles, along with timestamps for each caption. These generated captions and timestamps are further post-processed to enhance their alignment to the video and filter out captions with low similarity to the corresponding video by leveraging a pre-trained text-video model. + +models typically learn a cross-modal embedding space [30,39] via training with the symmetric InfoNCE loss [36]. The training is based on a similarity metric (often cosine distance) between embeddings $\rho_{n,i,m} = \mathrm{sim}\left(f(c_{n,i}),g(V_m)\right)$ scaled by a temperature parameter $\nu$ , resulting in the following loss function: + +$$ +L = - \frac {1}{2 | B |} \sum_ {(n, i) \in B} \left(\log \frac {\exp \left(\rho_ {n , i , n} / \nu\right)}{\sum_ {(m , j) \in B} \exp \left(\rho_ {n , i , m} / \nu\right)} + \log \frac {\exp \left(\rho_ {n , i , n} / \nu\right)}{\sum_ {(m , j) \in B} \exp \left(\rho_ {m , j , n} / \nu\right)}\right) (1) +$$ + +where $B$ is a batch of training sample indices $(n,i)$ . + +# 3.3 HowToCaption Method + +To generate captions for the instructional videos, we propose to leverage recent large language models that demonstrate great zero-shot performance in many different tasks formulated with natural language. Namely, we prompt the LLM to read the ASR subtitles of the video and create a plausible video description based on this. Since one subtitle only covers a small part of the video and lacks a global context, we propose to aggregate multiple subtitles together with their timestamp information. Then, we task the LLM to create detailed descriptions based on the entire input and estimate timestamps for each generated sentence. + +The overview of our approach is shown in Fig. 2. For each video, we first slice a given sequence of subtitles into blocks that contain long context information + +about the video. Then, the ASR subtitles of each block are summarised into a video caption using the LLM that we prompt with our task description. The LLM also predicts timestamps for each sentence in the video caption, which we further refine in our post-processing step based on similarities of a caption sentence to video clips in the neighboring area of predicted timestamps. + +LLM Prompting. For our language prompt (shown in Fig. 2), we leverage the same "main" prompt for the LLM, as in the Vicuna-13B model [10]: "A chat between a curious human and..." that defines the requirement for LLM to give a helpful answer to our questions. Then, we describe our request, what data we need to process, and how it should be processed: "I will give you an automatically recognized speech..." We found structuring the prompt in the way that the task description given at the beginning of the prompt and the long ASR input $S_{n}$ at the end is beneficial. Then, we give detailed instructions about how to process ASR subtitles. We found that instructions such as "Write only short sentences" or "Describe only one action per sentence" are beneficial, as they encourage the creation of concise captions that better match the video content. The instruction "Keep only actions that happen in the present time" is intended to filter out unrelated chats, advice, or comments from the captions; we observed that it also resulted in performance enhancements. Lastly, we request the model to predict a timestamp for each generated caption and, finally, input timestamps + ASR subtitles that need to be processed. The LLM response follows the start timestamp + caption format given in the prompt and, therefore, can be automatically parsed with a simple script into a set of captions and timestamps $C_{n} = \{c_{n,i},\tau_{n,i}^{s},\tau_{n,i}^{e}\}_{i\leq |C_{n}|}$ , where we assign $\tau_{n,i}^{e} = \tau_{n,i}^{s} + \varDelta_{sec}$ , where $\varDelta_{\mathrm{sec}}$ is a constant video clip length parameter (number of seconds). Please see Sec. 4.3 and the supplement for a detailed evaluation of these choices. In the supplement, we also discuss an extension of our HowToCaption method to vision language models that additionally allows grounding captions on visual content. However, we found that this does not improve caption quality. + +Post-processing: Alignment & Filtering. ASR subtitles often temporally misalign with video content [16, 33] (e.g., a speaker describes something only after it was shown in a video). Captions derived solely from ASR also face this issue. Therefore, inspired by the TAN method [16] that automatically predicts the alignability of subtitles and matching timestamps, we further improve our obtained captions with an alignment & filtering post-processing step (Fig. 2). To this end, we utilize the video-language encoder model $(f, g)$ . Given a generated caption $c_{n,i}$ and its start and end timestamps $(\tau_{n,i}^{s}, \tau_{n,i}^{e})$ that corresponds to a part of the video clip $V_{n}^{[\tau_{n,i}^{s}, \tau_{n,i}^{e}]}$ , we use the V-L model to compute alignment similarity scores $\rho_{n,i}(\delta) = \mathrm{sim}\left(f(c_{n,i}), g(V_{n}^{[\tau_{n,i}^{s} + \delta, \tau_{n,i}^{e} + \delta]})\right)$ between the caption and video clips with time offsets $\delta \in \mathbb{Z}, |\delta| \leq T$ around predicted timestamps. Then we align the caption to the video clip by finding the best offset around the timestamp $\delta_{n,i}^{*} = \underset{\delta \in \{-T, \dots, T\}}{\arg \max} \rho_{n,i}(\delta)$ and filter out pairs if $\rho_{n,i}(\delta_{n,i}^{*}) < \kappa$ , where $\kappa$ is a similarity score threshold. + +![](images/59deff681ee8ddb7044a8497a5a97d0ff325121d505713d60d3aa18c849685b8.jpg) +ASR: move them around to help direct the path +Caption: Matt Swanson gives a tip to use buckets to direct the path of the ball +Fig. 3: Examples of video-captions pairs from our HowToCaption dataset.

In practice, we found that the improvement after two rounds is marginal. For subsequent rounds, we fine-tune (c.f. Sec. 3.2) the V-L model on the aligned & filtered video-captions pairs $\{(v_i, c_i)\}$ , resulting in new alignment scores $\rho_{n,i}'(\delta)$ . Since fine-tuning V-L models often leads to forgetting, we employ two modifications in the fine-tuning and second alignment processes. First, during fine-tuning, we add regularization + +$$ +L _ {\text {a l i g n}} = \alpha \frac {1}{2 | B |} \sum_ {(n, i) \in B} \left(\operatorname {s i m} \left(f \left(c _ {n, i}\right), f ^ {*} \left(c _ {n, i}\right)\right) + \operatorname {s i m} \left(g \left(V _ {n}\right), g ^ {*} \left(V _ {n}\right)\right) \quad (2) \right. +$$ + +where $f^{*}$ and $g^{*}$ denote frozen text and video encoders, $\alpha$ is a regularization weight, and $(n,i)\in B$ represents the samples batch $B$ . This regularization prevents the model from forgetting [17]. Then, during alignment & filtering, we use the average of the similarities of the fine-tuned and original model. We show an impact of these modifications in the supplement. + +# 3.4 HowToCaption Dataset + +We apply the proposed HowToCaption approach to 1.2M long-term instructional videos and ASR subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset and obtain the HowToCaption dataset. By prompting the Vicuna-13B model, we obtain $\sim 70\mathrm{M}$ initial captions. The compute cost for prompting 1.2M videos is $\sim 12\mathrm{k}$ GPU-hours on NVIDIA A40. After alignment & filtering (details in Sec. 4.2) we obtain 25M high-quality video-caption pairs. We show examples from our HowToCaption dataset in Fig. 3. We note that generated captions follow different text styles, e.g., the first and the second examples contain a long description of an object and its actions, the third describes the process, and the last one is instruction. The average length of the captions is 9 words. We provide additional examples, statistics, failure case analyses, and user studies in the supplement. + +Table 1: Ablation of LLM prompts. We step by step construct a prompt for an LLM that concisely and in detail describes the caption generation task. To emphasize our incremental adjustments, we label the sentences as $\mathbf{x}n$ (where $n$ is an index). Each prompt consists of some sentences that were already used in previous prompt versions (e.g., $<\mathrm{x}1>$ , $<\mathrm{x}2>$ ) and new sentences introduced in the current prompt (e.g., $\mathrm{x}4$ : Write only ...). With each prompt, we obtain 2M video-text pairs from 100k HowTo100M videos that we later use for T-V model training (lower-resource setup). Downstream zero-shot text-video retrieval performance is reported. + +

+ +# 4 Experimental Results + +To evaluate the proposed HowToCaption dataset for large-scale pre-training of vision-language models, we train a T-V model as described in Sec. 3.2 on the HowToCaption dataset and assess its zero-shot video-text retrieval performance on four widely recognized and diverse video-text benchmarks: YouCook2 [67], MSR-VTT [58], MSVD [8], and LSMDC [43]. While the YouCook2 dataset consists of instructional cooking videos and might be considered as an in-domain benchmark for the HowToCaption dataset, the other datasets encompass a broader range of topics and video types, including non-instructional YouTube videos and movies. To evaluate the properties of HowToCaption dataset in comparison with other large-scale pre-training datasets, we also train our T-V model on the HowTo100M [33], HowTo100M with step labels [27], HTM-AA [16], VideoCC3M [34], and WebVid2M [4] datasets and compare zero-shot text-video retrieval performance. + +Table 2: Effect of a longer context.

+ +# 4.1 Datasets and Metrics + +Pre-training Datasets. HowTo100M is a dataset of 1.2M instructional videos with ASR subtitles. We consider three versions of annotations of this dataset: Sentencified HowTo100M [16], with pre-processed ASR subtitles by structuring them into full sentences; HowTo100M with Distant Supervision [27], where ASR subtitles were linked to WikiHow [19] step descriptions via distant supervision; and HTM-AA [16], an auto-aligned (AA) version of HowTo100M, where subtitle timestamps were adjusted to improve alignment to videos and non-alignable subtitles were discarded. WebVid2M [4] is a large open-domain dataset of 2.5M of short videos scrapped from the internet with their alt-text. VideoCC3M [34] is a dataset of 10M video-text pairs collected by transferring captions from image-text CC3M dataset [6] to videos with similar visual content. + +Datasets for Downstream Tasks. YouCook2 [67] is a dataset of instructional cooking videos, where each video clip is annotated with a recipe step. We used 3.5k test set for evaluation. MSR-VTT [58] contains 10k YouTube videos on various topics and human descriptions. Following prior work [4, 34, 52], we use the 1k test set for evaluation. MSVD [8] is a dataset of video snippets with their textual summary. The evaluation set consists of 670 videos with 40 captions corresponding to each video. We follow standard practice [4, 30] and count each caption-video pair towards the metrics. LSMDC [43] is a collection of video clips from movies with human-written descriptions. The test set consists of 1k video-caption pairs. + +Metrics. To evaluate zero-shot text-video retrieval, we use standard Recall@ $K$ metrics where $K \in 1,5,10$ (R1, R5, R10) and Median Rank (MR). + +# 4.2 Implementation Details + +As an LLM, we utilize Vicuna-13B-v0 [10]. In the supplement, we additionally experiment with the MiniGPT-4 model [68] to generate captions from subtitles grounded on visual content. To create the HowToCaption dataset, we leverage subtitles with timestamps released by [16] (Sentencified HowTo100M), where officially released subtitles [33] for HowTo100M videos were post-processed by structuring them into full sentences. For our T-V model (described in Sec. 3.2), we use ViT-B/16 visual encoder and BERTbase textual encoder that are initialized with BLIPCapFilt-L pre-trained weights. We uniformly sample 4 frames from a video clip during training and 12 frames during evaluation. For HowToCaption method, we use $T = 10$ seconds offset for alignment and adaptive threshold $\kappa$ to leave 25M most similar pairs after filtering. Following [7] that found that 8-sec clips are optimal for training on HowTo100M, we set $\Delta_{\mathrm{sec}} = 8$ . More implementation details are in the supplement. + +# 4.3 Ablation Studies + +Prompt Engineering. First, we assess the quality of the obtained dataset with respect to different LLM prompts. Since prompting LLM with subtitles from 1.2M videos is resource-intensive, we perform the prompt engineering ablations in a lower-resource setup, where we use a 100k subset of HowTo100M ( $\sim$ 10% of all videos) to create dense captions with the LLM and use the threshold $\kappa$ to obtain the 2M most confident video-caption pairs. Here, we train the T-V model for 150k iterations and then evaluate zero-shot on downstream tasks. In Tab. 1, we begin with a basic prompt for the LLM, gradually refining it to generate captions more suitable for vision-language tasks. It is essential to recognize that the impact of various prompts on performance can vary across datasets, as certain prompts may yield captions better aligned with specific downstream tasks. Notably, incorporating key phrases such as "Write only short sentences" or "Describe only one action per sentence" leads to performance improvements on 3 out of 4 datasets. Additionally, the use of the phrase "Keep only actions that happen in the present time" also results in performance enhancements. Furthermore, structuring the task description at the beginning and presenting the data to be processed at the end (the final modification) also boosts performance. We provide more ablations on prompt engineering in the supplement. + +We also examine the impact of leveraging a longer context for caption prediction. In Tab. 2, we compare caption generation with "no context", where captions are predicted from individual ASR subtitles. With our "long context" option, we input multiple ASR subtitles with their timestamps, and the model predicts both captions and timestamps based on longer context. We found that using a longer context is beneficial, resulting in an average improvement of 0.6 p.p. in R10, and particularly advantageous for YouCook2 and MSVD. + +Alignment & Filtering. Further, we assess the impact of the proposed alignment & filtering procedure on the quality of captions of the acquired dataset in Tab. 3.

Specifically, we evaluate different textual annotations of HowTo100M videos: sentencified ASR subtitles [16], task steps from distant supervision [27], and auto-aligned ASR subtitles [16]. Additionally, we conduct evaluations on WebVid2M [4] and VideoCC3M [34] datasets. Our findings indicate that the model pre-trained on our HowToCaption dataset significantly outperforms models pre-trained on other versions of HowTo100M annotations, with an average improvement of 5.2 p.p. in R10. This improvement is most pronounced for the MSR-VTT, MSVD, and LSMDC datasets, which feature full-sentence captions.

+ +tions in the form of step descriptions like "cut tomato", HTM-AA already exhibits a high baseline performance, but our HowToCaption dataset still provides a performance boost. We also observe that the VideoCC3M dataset does not improve the initial BLIP performance on any datasets except for the MSVD. We attribute it to the fact that the VideoCC3M dataset adopts captions from the CC3M dataset [6] and transfers them to videos, potentially not introducing significantly new knowledge for the BLIP-initialised model since BLIP was pretrained on multiple datasets, including CC3M. On the other hand, WebVid2M demonstrated performance improvements across all datasets, but our HowToCaption dataset notably outperforms WebVid2M on YouCook2 and MSR-VTT, only underperforming on LSMDC. + +Comparison with State-of-the-art in Zero-shot Text-Video Retrieval. In Tab. 5, we also conduct a comparison with zero-shot dual-encoder retrieval baselines. It is important to acknowledge that comparing state-of-the-art methods can be challenging due to variations in backbone capacity, training objectives, and other factors. Therefore, we focus on a comparison with dual-encoder models in the zero-shot settings. Additional comparisons with methods that use re-ranking can be found in the supplement. Nevertheless, it is worth highlighting + +that our approach consistently outperforms the baseline methods in zero-shot text-video retrieval across all datasets. + +Zero-shot Text-to-Video+Audio Retrieval. It is known that instructional video datasets, e.g., HowTo100M, suffer from a high correlation of audio modality to a textual description, therefore hindering building a text-video+audio retrieval system where the video is extended with audio [34, 47]. The usage of ASR narrations as supervisory textual description leads retrieval models to primarily perform speech recognition on the audio, hindering true language-audio connections [47]. Therefore, training text-video+audio systems on such datasets usually requires additional regularization, such as shifting audio timestamps or assigning lower weights to the audio loss [47]. Our HowToCaption dataset resolves this issue by providing richer textual descriptions, allowing us to train a text-video+audio retrieval system without regularization. To evaluate this, we train a multimodal Everything-At-One (EAO) [47] model that learns to fuse any combinations of text, video, and audio modalities on our proposed How-ToCaption dataset without any additional regularization and evaluate zero-shot text-video+audio retrieval performance. Tab. 6 shows the proposed model significantly outperforms all baselines and the directly comparable EAO model. + +Video Captioning. We further validate our dataset's potential for video-language pre-training through video captioning. We fine-tune the BLIP [22] model with all architecture blocks, including the image-grounded text decoder, on the HowToCaption dataset with all three BLIP losses: image-text contrastive loss, image-text matching loss, and language modeling loss. We adapt the image encoder to the video encoder similarly to our retrieval model (Sec. 3.2) and use similar hyperparameters (see the supplement). Subsequently, we fine-tune the model with language modeling loss on the training set of either YouCook2, MSR-VTT, or MSVD datasets and evaluate video captioning performance. Tab. 7 show that our model fine-tuned on the HowToCaption dataset significantly outperforms directly comparable BLIP model and other comparable baselines on YouCook2 and MSVD and keeps competitive performance on MSR-VTT. + +# 5 Conclusion + +In this work, we propose a novel approach, HowToCaption, that transforms freely available ASR subtitles of instructional videos into high-quality captions, enabling the collection of large-scale, high-quality video-language datasets without manual annotation efforts. With this approach, we curate a new large-scale HowToCaption dataset featuring human-style video captions derived from ASR subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset. We demonstrate that our HowToCaption dataset serves as an excellent source for training video-language representation and video captioning models across four text-video retrieval and three video captioning benchmarks. Furthermore, given the separation of textual descriptions from the audio modality in our dataset, it demonstrates efficacy as a valuable resource for text-to-video-audio tasks. This work demonstrates the potential of LLMs for creating annotation-free, large-scale video-language datasets. + +# Acknowledgements + +Nina Shvetsova is supported in part by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) project STCL - 01IS22067. + +# References + +1.

Instructional videos are a common source for learning text-video or even multimodal representations by leveraging subtitles extracted with automatic speech recognition systems (ASR) from the audio signal in the videos. However, in contrast to human-annotated captions, both speech and subtitles naturally differ from the visual content of the videos and thus provide only noisy supervision. As a result, large-scale annotation-free web video training data remains sub-optimal for training text-video models. In this work, we propose to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to obtain high-quality video descriptions aligned with videos at scale. Specifically, we prompt an LLM to create plausible video captions based on ASR subtitles of instructional videos. To this end, we introduce a prompting method that is able to take into account a longer text of subtitles, allowing us to capture the contextual information beyond one single sentence. We further prompt the LLM to generate timestamps for each produced caption based on the timestamps of the subtitles and finally align the generated captions to the video temporally. In this way, we obtain human-style video captions at scale without human supervision. We apply our method to the subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset, creating a new large-scale dataset, HowToCaption. Our evaluation shows that the resulting captions not only significantly improve the performance over many different benchmark datasets for zero-shot text-video retrieval and video captioning, but also lead to a disentangling of textual narration from the audio, boosting the performance in text-video-audio tasks." + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 266, + 455, + 529 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "^{1}" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Video-Language Dataset " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " LLM " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 540, + 436, + 552 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Instructional Videos" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 573, + 230, + 586 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 573, + 230, + 586 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 573, + 230, + 586 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 599, + 482, + 635 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 599, + 482, + 635 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 599, + 482, + 635 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Textual descriptions of visual information allow for navigating large amounts of visual data.

Most of these videos include some narrations, e.g., in instructional videos [33], people explain and show how to accomplish one or another task. To transform spoken language from the videos into subtitles, current automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems [40] can be used, providing aligned text-video annotated pairs for free. This automatic supervisory signal can easily scale to large video datasets. However, such video web data poses additional challenges [16, 33]: (1) spoken and visual information in the video can deviate from each other, e.g., when speakers provide information beyond what is visible or when spoken instructions do not temporally align with the actions shown, (2) speech contains filler words and phrases, such as \"I'm going to\", and can be incomplete and contain grammatical errors, and (3) ASR transcripts usually do not have punctuation and may contain errors (Fig. 1).

Moreover, we obtain an initial temporal alignment of the generated captions to the video based on the ASR timestamps by tasking the LLM to predict timestamps for each caption.

Notably, incorporating key phrases such as \"Write only short sentences\" or \"Describe only one action per sentence\" leads to performance improvements on 3 out of 4 datasets. Additionally, the use of the phrase \"Keep only actions that happen in the present time\" also results in performance enhancements. Furthermore, structuring the task description at the beginning and presenting the data to be processed at the end (the final modification) also boosts performance.

It is known that instructional video datasets, e.g., HowTo100M, suffer from a high correlation of audio modality to a textual description, therefore hindering building a text-video+audio retrieval system where the video is extended with audio [34, 47]. The usage of ASR narrations as supervisory textual description leads retrieval models to primarily perform speech recognition on the audio, hindering true language-audio connections [47]. Therefore, training text-video+audio systems on such datasets usually requires additional regularization, such as shifting audio timestamps or assigning lower weights to the audio loss [47]. Our HowToCaption dataset resolves this issue by providing richer textual descriptions, allowing us to train a text-video+audio retrieval system without regularization. To evaluate this, we train a multimodal Everything-At-One (EAO) [47] model that learns to fuse any combinations of text, video, and audio modalities on our proposed How-ToCaption dataset without any additional regularization and evaluate zero-shot text-video+audio retrieval performance.

We fine-tune the BLIP [22] model with all architecture blocks, including the image-grounded text decoder, on the HowToCaption dataset with all three BLIP losses: image-text contrastive loss, image-text matching loss, and language modeling loss. We adapt the image encoder to the video encoder similarly to our retrieval model (Sec. 3.2) and use similar hyperparameters (see the supplement). Subsequently, we fine-tune the model with language modeling loss on the training set of either YouCook2, MSR-VTT, or MSVD datasets and evaluate video captioning performance. Tab. 7 show that our model fine-tuned on the HowToCaption dataset significantly outperforms directly comparable BLIP model and other comparable baselines on YouCook2 and MSVD and keeps competitive performance on MSR-VTT." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 498, + 218, + 510 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 498, + 218, + 510 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 498, + 218, + 510 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "5 Conclusion" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 521, + 481, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 521, + 481, + 665 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 521, + 481, + 665 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "In this work, we propose a novel approach, HowToCaption, that transforms freely available ASR subtitles of instructional videos into high-quality captions, enabling the collection of large-scale, high-quality video-language datasets without manual annotation efforts. With this approach, we curate a new large-scale HowToCaption dataset featuring human-style video captions derived from ASR subtitles of the HowTo100M dataset. We demonstrate that our HowToCaption dataset serves as an excellent source for training video-language representation and video captioning models across four text-video retrieval and three video captioning benchmarks. Furthermore, given the separation of textual descriptions from the audio modality in our dataset, it demonstrates efficacy as a valuable resource for text-to-video-audio tasks.

We introduce a new hair modeling method that uses a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussians to produce accurate and realistic strand-based reconstructions from multi-view data. In contrast to recent approaches that leverage unstructured Gaussians to model human avatars, our method reconstructs the hair using 3D polylines, or strands. This fundamental difference allows the use of the resulting hairstyles out-of-the-box in modern computer graphics engines for editing, rendering, and simulation. Our 3D lifting method relies on unstructured Gaussians to generate multi-view ground truth data to supervise the fitting of hair strands. The hairstyle itself is represented in the form of the so-called strand-aligned 3D Gaussians. This representation allows us to combine strand-based hair priors, which are essential for realistic modeling of the inner structure of hairstyles, with the differentiable rendering capabilities of 3D Gaussian Splatting. Our method, named Gaussian Haircut, is evaluated on synthetic and real scenes and demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in the task of strand-based hair reconstruction.

Thus, we use 3D Gaussians to perform an initial 3D lifting and de-noising of these orientation maps and use the former to supervise the reconstruction of hair strands.

For example, the strand-based hair prior struggles to model curly hairstyles, as seen in one of the examples in Fig. 3. Also, our method is unsuited for reconstructing hairstyles with complicated internal structures, such as braids. Thus, introducing support for more sophisticated hair geometries remains future work. Our method also achieves a substantial speed-up compared to the baseline approaches, outperforming the optimization speed of the previous state-of-the-art by more than ten times. We also showcase how the hairstyles produced by our method can be directly imported into computer graphics engines, such as Unreal Engine, for use in physically rendered and simulated environments.

We introduce a new hair modeling method that uses a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussians to produce accurate and realistic strand-based reconstructions from multi-view data. In contrast to recent approaches that leverage unstructured Gaussians to model human avatars, our method reconstructs the hair using 3D polylines, or strands. This fundamental difference allows the use of the resulting hairstyles out-of-the-box in modern computer graphics engines for editing, rendering, and simulation. Our 3D lifting method relies on unstructured Gaussians to generate multi-view ground truth data to supervise the fitting of hair strands. The hairstyle itself is represented in the form of the so-called strand-aligned 3D Gaussians. This representation allows us to combine strand-based hair priors, which are essential for realistic modeling of the inner structure of hairstyles, with the differentiable rendering capabilities of 3D Gaussian Splatting. Our method, named Gaussian Haircut, is evaluated on synthetic and real scenes and demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in the task of strand-based hair reconstruction.

We then use this reconstruction to fit the strands with the aid of the pre-trained priors. The classical approach for 3D hair modeling [27] uses oriented gradient-based filters, the so-called orientation maps, to approximate projected line directions of the hair strands from the RGB images. However, these maps are inherently noisy [26, 33, 38] and hard to use directly for strand fitting. Thus, we use 3D Gaussians to perform an initial 3D lifting and de-noising of these orientation maps and use the former to supervise the reconstruction of hair strands.

These approaches typically have a separate stage to learn the appearance of 3D polylines from images [33, 38].

The hair surface geometry also incorporates a 3D-lifted orientation field. During the second stage, the strands are parameterized as latent hair maps and optimized using the Chamfer distance between the strands and the visible part of the hair surface.

For example, the strand-based hair prior struggles to model curly hairstyles, as seen in one of the examples in Fig. 3. Also, our method is unsuited for reconstructing hairstyles with complicated internal structures, such as braids. Thus, introducing support for more sophisticated hair geometries remains future work. Our method also achieves a substantial speed-up compared to the baseline approaches, outperforming the optimization speed of the previous state-of-the-art by more than ten times. We also showcase how the hairstyles produced by our method can be directly imported into computer graphics engines, such as Unreal Engine, for use in physically rendered and simulated environments.

We introduce a new hair modeling method that uses a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussians to produce accurate and realistic strand-based reconstructions from multi-view data. In contrast to recent approaches that leverage unstructured Gaussians to model human avatars, our method reconstructs the hair using 3D polylines, or strands. This fundamental difference allows the use of the resulting hairstyles out-of-the-box in modern computer graphics engines for editing, rendering, and simulation. Our 3D lifting method relies on unstructured Gaussians to generate multi-view ground truth data to supervise the fitting of hair strands. The hairstyle itself is represented in the form of the so-called strand-aligned 3D Gaussians. This representation allows us to combine strand-based hair priors, which are essential for realistic modeling of the inner structure of hairstyles, with the differentiable rendering capabilities of 3D Gaussian Splatting. Our method, named Gaussian Haircut, is evaluated on synthetic and real scenes and demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in the task of strand-based hair reconstruction. For more results, please refer to our project page: https://eth-ait.github.io/GaussianHaircut. + +Keywords: 3D Reconstruction $\cdot$ Digital Humans $\cdot$ Hair Modeling + +# 1 Introduction + +In recent years, human avatars have attained unprecedented levels of photorealism [14, 17, 21, 31, 34, 41, 42, 46]. This advancement has been largely driven by neural modeling and rendering methods that are incompatible with existing graphics pipelines. However, many downstream applications require the resulting avatars to be deployable in physically simulated environments. In particular, the de facto "gold standard" representation of human hair for simulation and rendering is based on strands, i.e., 3D curves. Yet, strand-based reconstruction of hairstyles from real-world data, such as multi-view images, remains a challenging and heavily underconstrained problem, as a substantial part of hair geometry remains occluded in the image-based captures. + +![](images/e3c83a642d3cab59a7eabf3fe67c9e0e17432d96e92cce558c02d683b9ef7c92.jpg) +Fig. 1: Gaussian Haircut works with multi-view images and uses strand-aligned 3D Gaussians to reconstruct a hairstyle. In the first stage, $3D$ lifting, we reconstruct the scene using unstructured primitives in the form of Gaussians. These unstructured primitives are then used in the second stage, strands fitting, to supervise our dual hair strand representation consisting of 3D Gaussians that are attached to hair strands. As a result, we produce a realistic strand-based hairstyle that can be rendered, edited, and animated using classical computer graphics techniques. + +To address this, we leverage latent strand and hairstyle priors introduced by Rosu et al. [33] and Sklyarova et al. [38] to produce strand-based reconstructions of hairstyles that have a realistic internal geometrical structure. Following previous approaches, we first obtain a line-based reconstruction of the visible part of the hairstyle, where the 3D line segments are used to approximate the hair strands locally. We then use this reconstruction to fit the strands with the aid of the pre-trained priors. The classical approach for 3D hair modeling [27] uses oriented gradient-based filters, the so-called orientation maps, to approximate projected line directions of the hair strands from the RGB images. However, these maps are inherently noisy [26, 33, 38] and hard to use directly for strand fitting. Thus, we use 3D Gaussians to perform an initial 3D lifting and de-noising of these orientation maps and use the former to supervise the reconstruction of hair strands. To introduce extra details and fidelity into the reconstructions, we model a hairstyle using a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussian primitives. The resulting method, called Gaussian Haircut, takes multi-view images as input and produces realistic 3D strands as output. + +Our approach is inspired by recent work on 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [16], which is capable of reproducing high-fidelity details in novel-view renders of static scenes and objects. Here, we utilize the 3D Gaussians in a novel way to enable realistic and animatable hairstyle reconstruction. We emphasize that our goal differs significantly from the original task of 3DGS, which reconstructs an unstructured set of 3D Gaussian primitives incompatible with physics-based hair simulation. These primitives cover only the visible hair surface, while we aim to reconstruct a hairstyle that includes the inner structure required to perform the simulation. Both 3DGS and follow-up work [34] show that the learned Gaussian primitives are often well-aligned with thin structures in a scene, such as hair strands, without extra supervision. We leverage this observation to compute a + +3D orientation field of hair strands from the multi-view input images, which we refer to as 3D line lifting. To achieve that, we render the directions of the highest variance of the Gaussian covariance matrices to obtain 2D orientation maps and compare them with ground-truth maps produced using Gabor filters. Moreover, we introduce a camera refinement procedure into our Gaussian lifting approach designed to recover a more accurate 3D hair shape. + +Having obtained accurate outer hair 3D orientations, we optimize a corresponding strand-based hairstyle using a strand-based hairstyle prior. We employ a dual representation to represent a hairstyle during our coarse-to-fine optimization consisting of classical 3D hair strand polylines and 3D Gaussians. The coarse fitting relies on using a latent space to optimize the hair strands, while during fine fitting, we directly optimize the parameters of the decoded 3D polylines. During the coarse-to-fine optimization, we employ differentiable rasterization of the hair strands to achieve a high accuracy in the reconstructed hairstyle. Specifically, we use 3D Gaussians attached to the line segments of the strand polylines and propagate the gradients from their rasterization directly into the latter. We supervise the reconstructions using both photometric and geometric constraints. To supervise the geometry, we employ the 2D projections of the 3D orientation field obtained during the line lifting stage. To help the reconstruction process, we also develop a hair upsampling technique that facilitates the effective use of the photometric constraints during the coarse optimization stage and a method for prior-based optimization of the strands in the domain of 3D polylines. Our method is illustrated in Fig. 1. + +We evaluate our approach on both real and synthetic scenes and achieve improvements in both reconstruction speed and quality compared to the state-of-the-art. Our contributions can be summarized as follows: + +- we propose a new 3D line lifting scheme that uses a modified 3DGS reconstruction technique to lift 2D orientation maps into a 3D field while also providing refinement of the camera parameters; +- we introduce a dual representation of hair strand polylines and 3D Gaussians to achieve differentiable rasterization of hair strands and leverage photometric constraints for strand-based hair reconstruction; +- based on these components, we propose a coarse-to-fine optimization method for prior-guided hair reconstruction that leverages both latent and explicit representations of the hairstyle. + +# 2 Related Work + +# 2.1 3D Gaussian Splatting for Head Avatars + +3D meshes are the most widely used representation for head avatars [1, 18]. While a 3D mesh efficiently depicts surface-like areas such as faces, it struggles to represent complex geometries like hair accurately. To overcome this limitation, volumetric representations like a mixture of volumetric primitives or neural radiance fields have been combined with 3D meshes to better portray hair + +and beards [12, 20, 52]. However, volume rendering typically demands substantial computational resources. Recently, there has been a shift towards using 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) as a base representation for avatars [31, 34]. This approach achieves both photo-realistic appearance and real-time performance. Despite these advancements, most studies [4, 8, 32, 44, 46, 50] typically use 3D morphable face models such as FLAME [18] and do not model hair as a separate layer. Instead, hair was treated as a mere component of the head, without any special consideration. This restricts the potential applications of head avatars, particularly in hair motion and stylization. + +# 2.2 Strand-based Hair Modeling + +Strands are the standard representation for high fidelity 3D hair modeling in academia [29, 36, 47] and industry [5, 10]. Strands have several advantages over volumes or meshes, being particularly effective for physics-based simulations of hair [7, 11, 13]. Strands also enable intuitive geometric editing by directly manipulating the length and curvature of strands [37, 39, 45, 51]. However, due to the geometric complexity of human hair and the large number of strands required, realistic hair modeling is labor-intensive even for skilled 3D artists. + +To overcome this issue, image-based hair modeling methods have been developed to automate the 3D hair modeling process from captured photographs. A common approach for image-based hair modeling involves the use of 2D orientation maps [27]. Strand-based hair models are optimized to align with these 2D orientation maps when projected onto screen space [2,3,23-28,48,49]. A notable limitation of image-based hair modeling is the lack of information about the interior parts of the hair, which are invariably occluded in images. To overcome this challenge, Neural Haircut [38] employs a pretrained diffusion-based hairstyle prior to infer the interior geometry. Despite these efforts, previous work represents hair as 3D polylines, which do not account for thickness in the geometry or appearance modeling. These approaches typically have a separate stage to learn the appearance of 3D polylines from images [33, 38]. In contrast, our proposed dual hair strand representation utilizes a sequence of anisotropic 3D Gaussians attached to a hair strand polyline, thereby offering enhanced expressiveness for both geometry and appearance modeling. + +In the concurrent work of Luo et al. [22], 3D Gaussians are also used to reconstruct human hair strands from multi-view images. In contrast to this approach, which uses studio captures with uniform lighting, our method works with an unconstrained capture setup. To enable this, we introduce a new camera optimization approach for 3D Gaussians. Moreover, [22] uses 3D constraints to optimize the hair strands, similar to Neural Haircut [38], while our method fully relies on our new differentiable rendering scheme. + +# 3 Method + +Our method reconstructs 3D strand-based hairstyles from multi-view images.

The former are attached to the strands and thus cover an entire hair volume, while the latter concentrate only on the visible part of the hair surface. (b) During coarse strand-based fitting, we decode only a set of guiding strands from the latent hair map at each training step, as generating a full hairstyle is computationally- and memory-expensive. We then convert these strands into a dense hair map suitable for rendering by conducting interpolation in the space of their 3D coordinates. (c) Finally, we conduct a fine strand-based optimization step. We decode a dense hairstyle from a latent map and directly optimize their coordinates instead of latent representations. + +Structured Gaussians + +![](images/9f86fe4ffb3ca3fa48c17d2ddc40ac507b7a9b0ec34e8b969147dfa22cd54f84.jpg) + +(a) Strand-aligned Gaussians + +Guiding strands + +![](images/a880682d012d5ec5139db89f2baf36bc6bcb4139c36ae1836881d622e979df12.jpg) +(b) Coarse fitting + +Interpolated strands + +![](images/356546bfae9d17b9a4cbddceb75231ea759d78c83807d593c7147b9e5f480c63.jpg) + +Full hairstyle + +![](images/f5d736bae073f3c76c762d5e390f1eebc062e2a9f7028245afd47fe23b29d183.jpg) +(c) Fine fitting + +mentation masks, and image gradients, or the so-called orientation maps. The reconstruction is then performed in two stages, see Fig. 1. + +For the first 3D line lifting stage, we use a combination of 3D Gaussian Splatting [16] and BARF [19] to optimize the parameters of the training cameras and perform 3D lifting of the scene, including orientation maps. The latter are directly embedded into the geometry of the resulting Gaussians. Our main idea is to use a covariance matrix to represent the 3D orientation field of hair strands. In our approach, the direction of maximum variance of each Gaussian corresponds to the direction of the hair strand, and the variance of the orthogonal directions gives us the natural measure of its uncertainty, which we account for during the rendering process. As a result, we obtain a scene representation that produces highly realistic renders for both color and orientation maps, as the resulting Gaussians are aligned with the hair strands. However, these primitives are unstructured, as they only lie on the outer hair surface, see Fig. 2 (a). We thus use them to generate the multi-view renders and reconstruct the geometry of the hair strands during the second stage using structured primitives. + +In the hair strands fitting stage, we optimize the strand-based hairstyle in a coarse-to-fine manner. For the coarse optimization step, we parameterize hair as a latent texture map [33]. We use the Gaussians obtained during the first stage to create ground truth for photometric and geometric losses. After the coarse optimization, we decode the strands into an explicit hair map and optimize it directly in a fine-grained fitting step. During both of these steps, we follow [38] and regularize the hairstyle using a pre-trained hairstyle diffusion model [15] to increase the realism of its internal structure. We also utilize the 3D Gaussian Splitting framework to incorporate differentiable rendering of the hair strands. + +We attach a Gaussian to each line segment on the strand to achieve that. The scale of these primitives has only one degree of freedom, which is proportional to the length of the line segment, while the other two are fixed to a small predefined value. This allows us to introduce fine-grained details into the visible part of the hair reconstruction. + +# 3.1 3D Line Lifting with Unstructured Gaussians + +We rely on the 3D Gaussian Splatting approach to perform an initial scene reconstruction. We modify it to incorporate camera optimization, as off-the-shelf SfM [35] methods do not achieve high accuracy when localizing the cameras in the scenes centered around the hair [38]. Therefore, we employ a learnable 6-DoF camera parameterization from BARF [19] as a residual to the initial estimation produced by SfM and train it alongside the 3D Gaussians using gradient-based optimization. + +Following [16], each reconstructed primitive is parameterized by a learnable mean $\mu$ , scaling coefficients $s$ , rotation quaternion $q$ , and opacity $o$ . Their covariance matrix can then be expressed as $\Sigma = R S S^T R^T$ , where $R$ is a matrix form of the quaternion $q$ , and $S = \mathrm{diag}(s)$ . Each Gaussian also has a set of learnable features, which include the spherical harmonic coefficients $f$ for the view-dependent color, a hair segmentation label $l$ , and confidence value $\tau$ for the 3D orientation of the Gaussian. The rendering proceeds by first projecting each Gaussian into the screen space, resulting in a mean $\mu'$ and a covariance matrix $\Sigma'$ . The Gaussians are then sorted according to their depth, and for each pixel $p$ , their features $c_i$ are rendered using $\alpha$ -blending: + +$$ +C _ {p} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} T _ {p} ^ {i} \alpha_ {p} ^ {i} c _ {i}, \quad T _ {p} ^ {i} = \prod_ {j = 1} ^ {i - 1} (1 - \alpha_ {p} ^ {j}), \quad T _ {p} ^ {1} = 1, \tag {1} +$$ + +$$ +\alpha_ {p} ^ {i} = o _ {i} \exp \left(- \frac {1}{2} (p - \mu_ {i} ^ {\prime}) ^ {T} \Sigma_ {i} ^ {\prime} (p - \mu_ {i} ^ {\prime})\right). \tag {2} +$$ + +As a result, we obtain rendered color, which is produced via the original Gaussian splatting approach, hair segmentation label $l_{p}$ , orientation confidence value $\tau_{p}$ and a rendered silhouette of the Gaussians denoted as $s_{p}$ : + +$$ +l _ {p} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} T _ {p} ^ {i} \alpha_ {p} ^ {i} l _ {i}, \quad \tau_ {p} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} T _ {p} ^ {i} \alpha_ {p} ^ {i} \tau_ {i}, \quad s _ {p} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} T _ {p} ^ {i} \alpha_ {p} ^ {i}. \tag {3} +$$ + +In our approach, we use the covariance matrices to describe the local geometry of the hair strands in the 3D volume. To do that, we align the Gaussians with the hair strands via 3D lifting of the orientation maps. We represent the primary 3D orientation as the direction of the highest variance and use the variance of the orthogonal directions as a measure of uncertainty. Specifically, we obtain a rendered strand direction in pixel $p$ , denoted as $\beta_{p}$ , as follows: + +$$ +\beta_ {p} = \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} T _ {p} ^ {i} \alpha_ {p} ^ {i} \beta_ {i}, \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\alpha_{p}^{i}$ and $T_{p}^{i}$ depend on the full covariance matrix, as per Eq. 1-2, and $\beta_{i}$ denotes a direction of the highest variance of the Gaussian. + +The Gaussians are trained using a gradient-based optimization procedure from the original work [16]. Our photometric constraints include $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{rgb}}$ , which consists of L1 and SSIM losses, $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{seg}}$ that consists of an L1 loss that matches the rendered silhouette $s_p$ and hair segmentation $l_p$ to ground truth masks, and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dir}}$ that supervises hair orientations. For the latter, we build upon an original formulation [27] and introduce a rendered confidence factor $\tau_p$ into the objective: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {d i r}} = \sum_ {p} \tau_ {p} \min \left\{\mathrm {d} \left(\beta_ {p}, \hat {\beta} _ {p}\right), \mathrm {d} \left(\beta_ {p}, \hat {\beta} _ {p}\right) \pm \pi \right\} - \log \tau_ {p}, \tag {5} +$$ + +where $\mathrm{d}$ denotes the absolute angular difference between the directions, and $\hat{\beta}_p$ denotes a ground-truth direction in the pixel $p$ . Our resulting training objective for the Gaussian-based hair reconstruction stage can be written as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {g a u s s i a n}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\mathrm {r g b}} + \lambda_ {\text {s e g}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {s e g}} + \lambda_ {\text {d i r}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d i r}}. \tag {6} +$$ + +# 3.2 3D Hair Strands Reconstruction + +After the first stage, we obtain Gaussians matching the hairstyle's visible structure, including the geometry and strand orientations, and the optimized camera parameters. This information is used for the 3D hair strands reconstruction. + +The strand-based hairstyle is represented as a hair map $H$ corresponding to a scalp region of the 3D head model [18]. This head model is fitted into the scene using a multiview optimization approach based on facial keypoints [38]. Each texel of this map stores a 3D hair strand as a polyline: $S^k = \{p_l^k\}$ . Since hair maps have an increasingly high number of degrees of freedom, we regularize the optimization process [33] and introduce a latent hair map $Z$ , which can be converted to and from $H$ using pre-trained strand decoder $\mathcal{G}$ and encoder $\mathcal{E}$ : + +$$ +H = \mathcal {G} (Z), \quad Z = \mathcal {E} (H). \tag {7} +$$ + +During the coarse fitting step, we optimize the hair strands as a latent map $Z$ , while for the fine step, we optimize an explicit hair map $H$ , see Fig. 2 (c). + +Since latent hair map decoding operation is computationally expensive, in the coarse optimization step, this mapping can only be performed for a set of guiding strands per training batch, which we will denote as $H'$ , see Fig. 2 (b). Note, however, that the latent map $Z$ can be decoded into an arbitrarily large number of hair strands for the fine-fitting step. The hair strands are optimized using two constraints: photometric losses, for which we differentiably rasterize the hair strands and latent diffusion-based regularization that follows [38] and ensures the realism of the internal part of the hairstyle. Importantly, we use the ground truth generated using the Gaussian-based reconstruction from the previous stage, substantially reducing the noise in this objective, especially for the orientation maps. + +Photometric losses. During differentiable rasterization, we assign Gaussians to each line segment $\{p_l^k,p_{l + 1}^k\}$ of the strand. The generated primitive has the first element of its scaling vector $s_l^k$ proportional to the length of the strand, and the other two fixed to a small value, i.e. $s_l^k = \{1 / 2\cdot \| p_{l + 1}^k -p_l^k\| _2,\epsilon ,\epsilon \}$ . Additionally, its rotation quaternion is set to align the $x$ -axis with the segment direction of the hair strand. We make all these Gaussians opaque, meaning $o_l^k = 1$ , have unit orientation confidence $\tau_l^k$ , and assign each one a trainable set of spherical harmonic coefficients $f_{l}^{k}$ responsible for rendering the color. During the coarse fitting, these coefficients are predicted from the latent hair map using an appearance decoder $\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{a}}$ , which copies the architecture of a strand decoder $\mathcal{G}$ . However, while the strand decoder $\mathcal{G}$ is pre-trained using a collection of synthetic hair strands and is frozen during the reconstruction process, following [33], the appearance decoder $\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{a}}$ is optimized from scratch for each scene. Thus, the trainable parameters during the coarse optimization step include $Z$ and $\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{a}}$ , while for the fine step, we directly optimize $H$ with associated coefficients $f_{l}^{k}$ . + +The rendering loss follows the Gaussians training objective $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{gaussian}}$ from the first stage (Eq. 6) and includes a color loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{rgb}}$ , a segmentation loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{seg}}$ , and an orientations loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{dir}}$ . Instead of using the covariance matrices to extract the orientations $\beta_{i}$ , we use the direction vectors $v_{l}^{k} = p_{l + 1}^{k} - p_{l}^{k}$ . We can do that since, at this stage, we have access to the exact strand growth directions instead of undirected lines. However, during the coarse fitting stage, we can only decode a small set of guiding hair strands $H^{\prime}$ per training batch from the latent map $Z$ because of memory constraints. Thus, the rendered geometry may have holes, making photometric training losses ineffective. To address this problem, we interpolate the guiding strands to produce a dense hair map $\hat{H}$ , which we then use for rasterization. The strand interpolation procedure follows [39] but is carried out in the domain of 3D coordinates instead of latent hair maps. Note that we do not need such interpolation during the fine optimization stage, as at each training step we have direct access to the dense hairstyle. + +Diffusion-based regularization. We follow [38] and employ a diffusion-based score distillation sampling [30] loss $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{eds}}$ to regularize the hair geometry. It is applied in the domain of the latent hair maps and uses a pre-trained latent diffusion for guide strand generation [38]. While it can be incorporated seamlessly into our coarse optimization step by simply applying it to a subsampled version $Z^{\prime}$ of the latent hair map $Z$ , we also want to keep this regularization during the fine-grained strands optimization. To achieve that, at each step, we encode a random subset of the hair strands into their latent representations using a pretrained encoder $\mathcal{E}$ and interpolate them into texels with the same resolution as $Z^{\prime}$ . We then apply a diffusion-based penalty to this low-resolution latent hair map, similar to the coarse stage. For more details, please refer to the supplementary materials. + +The final objective for the hair strands fitting can be written as follows: + +$$ +\mathcal {L} _ {\text {s t r a n d}} = \mathcal {L} _ {\text {r g b}} + \lambda_ {\text {s e g}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {s e g}} + \lambda_ {\text {d i r}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {d i r}} + \lambda_ {\text {s d s}} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {s d s}}. \tag {8} +$$ + +As a result, we obtain a strand-based hair map that can be rendered statically using optimized spherical harmonics coefficients or dynamically via classical computer graphics engines [6]. + +# 4 Experiments + +# 4.1 Implementation Details + +We preprocess real-world data using COLMAP [35] to produce the initial point cloud and camera estimates. We use the default optimization hyperparameters from the base 3DGS approach [16] to train the Gaussians, which results in 30,000 optimization steps during the 3D lifting stage. The camera parameters are optimized for the first 15,000 steps and are frozen afterward. Their learning rate schedule follows the learning rates of Gaussian rotations and means. + +During the strand fitting stage, we use pre-trained strand and hairstyle priors from [38]. We use 1,000 guiding strands in the hair map $H'$ during coarse optimization, which are interpolated to 10,000 at each training step before rasterization. For the fine fitting of the hairstyle, we decode a hair map $H$ containing 30,000 strands. To generate a guiding latent hair map $Z'$ that is used for regularization, we randomly select 1,000 strands at each training step. We encode them into the latent vectors and interpolate them into a latent map before calculating a score distillation sampling loss. We use 20,000 and 10,000 optimization steps for the coarse and fine fitting, respectively. The weights of the losses during both stages are set to $\lambda_{\mathrm{seg}} = 10^{-1}$ , $\lambda_{\mathrm{dir}} = \lambda_{\mathrm{sds}} = 10^{-2}$ . Reconstructing a hairstyle using our method takes up to six hours on a single RTX 4090. For more details on implementation and training, please refer to the supplementary materials. + +# 4.2 Real-world Evaluation + +We evaluate our approach using monocular video sequences captured under unconstrained lighting conditions. + +Baseline. The main baseline we compare against is Neural Haircut [38]. This method reconstructs strand-based hair geometry in the same scenario as ours, i.e. using real-world multi-view image/monocular video data. It consists of two stages. During the first stage, it reconstructs coarse hair geometry using a layered neural signed distance function [40], where the layers correspond to the hair and bust geometries. The hair surface geometry also incorporates a 3D-lifted orientation field. During the second stage, the strands are parameterized as latent hair maps and optimized using the Chamfer distance between the strands and the visible part of the hair surface. The authors also propose a differentiable hair rendering pipeline that relies on mesh-based rasterization to propagate photometric information into geometry. However, this loss does not propagate high-frequency details and only slightly improves strand geometry. + +![](images/edc4c98366e5c7ee17252c8b7bfb2ce2ed4f81b86e70b9fa3b807478ce476af0.jpg) +Fig. 3: A qualitative comparison of the reconstructed strand-based geometry against Neural Haircut [38].

We showcase the rendering results produced by our Gaussian-based strand rasterization method from test views. Since these images were not included in the training set and thus were not part of the bundle adjustment, there is a slight misalignment between the predicted images and the ground truth. + +Comparison. In contrast to this method, we primarily rely on differentiable rendering of the hair strands to learn their geometry. Toward this end, we use a two-stage training approach that first does bundle adjustment and 3D lifting of orientation maps using unstructured Gaussians and then utilizes structured Gaussians to learn the hairstyle's shape via differentiable rasterization. Our approach achieves considerable quality improvements in the resulting hairstyles, as seen in the qualitative evaluation, Fig. 3. Another advantage of our method is the faster reconstruction timings. We achieve more than ten times speed-up compared to the base approach with improved reconstruction quality. + +![](images/180c9f719aef6756d6ee51d88eee6edac5645963d4c68d2ddf86b8d76e0f9617.jpg) +Fig.5: hairstyles produced by our method can be easily imported into a computer graphics engine for editing, rendering, and simulation. Here, we show the simulation results of the reconstructed hairstyle in Unreal Engine [9]. + +Applications. The learned structured Gaussians can be used out-of-the-box for fast and photorealistic rendering of the reconstructed hairstyles. We showcase the rendering results in Fig. 4. These images can be generated in seconds, on par with the rendering time required to achieve similar visual quality with the classical rendering approaches, for example, using [9]. They also have the upside of matching the lighting and the subject's hair color without requiring manual adjustment. Also, due to the dual nature of our reconstructions, we can leverage the explicit geometry of the reconstructed strands to conduct a generalizable physics simulation driven by the motion of the head. We showcase the simulation results in Fig. 5 and the supplementary materials. Note that achieving such high plausibility of simulated dynamics is only possible because our reconstructions are structured into strands, are connected to the parametric head mesh, and have realistic internal structures due to the use of hairstyle priors. + +# 4.3 Ablation Study + +We ablate the importance of our method's components on real and synthetic scenes. Following [38], for synthetic evaluation, we use two hair models of straight and curly hairstyles [47] that are widely used in the literature as benchmarks. + +Orientation maps lifting. First, we evaluate the efficiency of our 3D line lifting approach in producing the denoised orientation maps. A standard hair orientation map calculation approach relies on Gabor filter banks [27]. Thus, we can utilize a rendering engine [6] to produce realistic renders of synthetic hairstyles, which can be used to run orientation map extraction via these filters. For quantitative evaluation, we also generate the ground-truth orientation maps directly from the underlying geometry using classical line rendering algorithm [43]. So, we compare the line projections from our 3D lifting method against the primary baseline - Gabor filters. Our method achieves the lowest average angular error of re-projections of $7^{\circ}$ , followed by the error of $8^{\circ}$ achieved by Gabor filters. These metrics are the average of 70 test views for two synthetic hairstyles. Thus, our 3D line lifting gives better estimates for hair orientation maps than Gabor filters. Moreover, we evaluate the effect of these synthesized orientation maps on the reconstructed hair geometry in real-world examples. The results are in + +![](images/a9535ddfc6eda5e62b291ac3073eb82ee5a618a7aa72e2a170e6811da3df0f10.jpg) + +![](images/7a3286c8bf8e7bcf14f4b336c83dc81d717dc36b56f28c1db5b3a04026cc4657.jpg) + +![](images/2f7c6c161768a56b6351fc6a81845ac96d0240817c6d33a6f9b96ef589ad005c.jpg) + +![](images/4fba131945b5ef20780caa8a36318b1b65568518ed6ef5b665506dacf8fb5c78.jpg) + +![](images/6618a22a087df9efc04c9a60cc60d4d0ce4f8d83931dd8801ff607f2d515ee2f.jpg) + +![](images/d0032735be73fbb3bc76707c62e5b23cfc8faf1b8e629a0ecd4e85705a8ffdac.jpg) + +![](images/eccf2972448175352af6c01a7c47b437ed35630f4f7ab18453dda6a3a902f0e9.jpg) + +![](images/a840a5e60666ddddea254e3a03d6275bdd45c704e109b6373101e1c087f5ead9.jpg) + +![](images/d91ea6a5296e424b5c7bf426cd0bce7b3b442af5691ffb048fd7449a62710b60.jpg) + +![](images/cdb2b14bad375686ede4ddb60095af138cdb29e0638a1aa78ab3937949a06020.jpg) + +![](images/91127525bac4c8b8e034449722b7c38ad5e751ad49313776e86643dfd6cc34ae.jpg) + +![](images/2532d678f8cd874035358b78f75e3242638828223cd8152d13354ed80a9a1dce.jpg) + +![](images/efa21a8f72016c33384908e7f8836d32e4d462e718508748f389c6c53967b949.jpg) + +![](images/4ea57606ff6326c6adb1a0cbc65c5e8b7c8f733e086e921af01d0a535ac79581.jpg) + +![](images/dc2a6e71162e27caf02cd28d57bea9e345e0515ea9dec829248e1b99cdc70dd9.jpg) + +![](images/d04cecf07c4eca79300791a21cc212e06ad10c686eb1a8248a0646349183c5c3.jpg) + +![](images/af86c79c7b25255fc80f6ee9c9484fbbd0ff6bc1ea31fcd7b6955e99b8d27814.jpg) + +![](images/8c8c0bedb7e38c9549de88d01e76a80751cf689b5743cda579c5280c1a3a04b2.jpg) + +![](images/8e0196a1f3f8adda7ede9ef2155a904e0df0ff290aec7a5cebc6420649131d99.jpg) +Image +w/o fine optimization +Fig. 6: Ablation of the strands fitting stage.

The extended version of the ablation study with additional experiments is available in the supplementary materials. There, we also validate the diffusion-based prior's efficiency. + +# 5 Conclusion + +We have presented a method for accurate strand-based hair reconstruction. To achieve that, we propose a new hair modeling method that consists of Gaussian-based 3D line lifting and a strand optimization approach that relies on our new dual representation called strand-aligned Gaussians. We also introduce a coarse-to-fine optimization method for hair strands that achieves state-of-the-art performance in multi-view hair reconstruction using $360^{\circ}$ head capture with unconstrained lighting conditions. Our findings are validated via an extensive evaluation using real-world and synthetic data. The limitations of our method are in many aspects similar to the base Neural Haircut approach. For example, the strand-based hair prior struggles to model curly hairstyles, as seen in one of the examples in Fig. 3. Also, our method is unsuited for reconstructing hairstyles with complicated internal structures, such as braids. Thus, introducing support for more sophisticated hair geometries remains future work. Our method also achieves a substantial speed-up compared to the baseline approaches, outperforming the optimization speed of the previous state-of-the-art by more than ten times. We also showcase how the hairstyles produced by our method can be directly imported into computer graphics engines, such as Unreal Engine, for use in physically rendered and simulated environments. We believe that fast and accurate reconstruction of hairstyles from real-world data can open the way to exciting applications in telepresence, special effects, and gaming industries. + +# Acknowledgements + +We sincerely thank Joachim Tesch for his help with realistic hair simulations.

We introduce a new hair modeling method that uses a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussians to produce accurate and realistic strand-based reconstructions from multi-view data. In contrast to recent approaches that leverage unstructured Gaussians to model human avatars, our method reconstructs the hair using 3D polylines, or strands. This fundamental difference allows the use of the resulting hairstyles out-of-the-box in modern computer graphics engines for editing, rendering, and simulation. Our 3D lifting method relies on unstructured Gaussians to generate multi-view ground truth data to supervise the fitting of hair strands. The hairstyle itself is represented in the form of the so-called strand-aligned 3D Gaussians. This representation allows us to combine strand-based hair priors, which are essential for realistic modeling of the inner structure of hairstyles, with the differentiable rendering capabilities of 3D Gaussian Splatting. Our method, named Gaussian Haircut, is evaluated on synthetic and real scenes and demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in the task of strand-based hair reconstruction.

However, many downstream applications require the resulting avatars to be deployable in physically simulated environments. In particular, the de facto \"gold standard\" representation of human hair for simulation and rendering is based on strands, i.e., 3D curves.

[33] and Sklyarova et al. [38] to produce strand-based reconstructions of hairstyles that have a realistic internal geometrical structure. Following previous approaches, we first obtain a line-based reconstruction of the visible part of the hairstyle, where the 3D line segments are used to approximate the hair strands locally. We then use this reconstruction to fit the strands with the aid of the pre-trained priors. The classical approach for 3D hair modeling [27] uses oriented gradient-based filters, the so-called orientation maps, to approximate projected line directions of the hair strands from the RGB images. However, these maps are inherently noisy [26, 33, 38] and hard to use directly for strand fitting. Thus, we use 3D Gaussians to perform an initial 3D lifting and de-noising of these orientation maps and use the former to supervise the reconstruction of hair strands. To introduce extra details and fidelity into the reconstructions, we model a hairstyle using a dual representation of classical hair strands and 3D Gaussian primitives.

We emphasize that our goal differs significantly from the original task of 3DGS, which reconstructs an unstructured set of 3D Gaussian primitives incompatible with physics-based hair simulation. These primitives cover only the visible hair surface, while we aim to reconstruct a hairstyle that includes the inner structure required to perform the simulation. Both 3DGS and follow-up work [34] show that the learned Gaussian primitives are often well-aligned with thin structures in a scene, such as hair strands, without extra supervision.

The coarse fitting relies on using a latent space to optimize the hair strands, while during fine fitting, we directly optimize the parameters of the decoded 3D polylines. During the coarse-to-fine optimization, we employ differentiable rasterization of the hair strands to achieve a high accuracy in the reconstructed hairstyle. Specifically, we use 3D Gaussians attached to the line segments of the strand polylines and propagate the gradients from their rasterization directly into the latter. We supervise the reconstructions using both photometric and geometric constraints.

A notable limitation of image-based hair modeling is the lack of information about the interior parts of the hair, which are invariably occluded in images. To overcome this challenge, Neural Haircut [38] employs a pretrained diffusion-based hairstyle prior to infer the interior geometry. Despite these efforts, previous work represents hair as 3D polylines, which do not account for thickness in the geometry or appearance modeling. These approaches typically have a separate stage to learn the appearance of 3D polylines from images [33, 38].

In our approach, the direction of maximum variance of each Gaussian corresponds to the direction of the hair strand, and the variance of the orthogonal directions gives us the natural measure of its uncertainty, which we account for during the rendering process. As a result, we obtain a scene representation that produces highly realistic renders for both color and orientation maps, as the resulting Gaussians are aligned with the hair strands.

After the coarse optimization, we decode the strands into an explicit hair map and optimize it directly in a fine-grained fitting step.

Also, our method is unsuited for reconstructing hairstyles with complicated internal structures, such as braids. Thus, introducing support for more sophisticated hair geometries remains future work. Our method also achieves a substantial speed-up compared to the baseline approaches, outperforming the optimization speed of the previous state-of-the-art by more than ten times. We also showcase how the hairstyles produced by our method can be directly imported into computer graphics engines, such as Unreal Engine, for use in physically rendered and simulated environments.

Existing motion forecasting models, while making progress, struggle to bridge the gap between the source and target domains. Recent solutions often rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. Due to the ever-changing environment, however, the real-world test distribution may experience ongoing/continual shifts over time, leading to catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation when adapting to evolving domains. To solve these challenges, this work introduces HoCoTTA, a framework for homeostatic continual test-time adaptation. It aligns with the knowledge distillation and parameter isolation paradigm, enabling the identification of domain-invariant and domain-specific knowledge, where the former is shared (to be retained) in continual TTA across domains, while the latter needs to be updated. Specifically, we propose a multi-domain homeostasis assessment to estimate the uncertainty of the current model parameter when faced with novel-domain samples. Then, the Fisher information matrix is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, with larger indicating the domain-sensitive parameter, and vice versa. Moreover, we propose an isolated parameter optimization strategy to update those domain-specific parameters to adapt to the new-domain, while preserving the invariant ones.

Existing motion forecasting models, while making progress, struggle to bridge the gap between the source and target domains. Recent solutions often rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. Due to the ever-changing environment, however, the real-world test distribution may experience ongoing/continual shifts over time, leading to catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation when adapting to evolving domains. To solve these challenges, this work introduces HoCoTTA, a framework for homeostatic continual test-time adaptation. It aligns with the knowledge distillation and parameter isolation paradigm, enabling the identification of domain-invariant and domain-specific knowledge, where the former is shared (to be retained) in continual TTA across domains, while the latter needs to be updated. Specifically, we propose a multi-domain homeostasis assessment to estimate the uncertainty of the current model parameter when faced with novel-domain samples. Then, the Fisher information matrix is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, with larger indicating the domain-sensitive parameter, and vice versa. Moreover, we propose an isolated parameter optimization strategy to update those domain-specific parameters to adapt to the new-domain, while preserving the invariant ones.

Before making decisions, our HoCoTTA leverages the homeostasis assessment to evaluate the model's uncertainty with respect to the novel domains, and is able to estimate the domain-specific knowledge and isolate it from the cross-domain shared knowledge. It facilitates to preserve the cross-domain shared knowledge to eliminate the catastrophic forgetting, and avoid the error accumulation in continual test-time adaptation. Experiments across various benchmarks show the superior performance of our approach compared to state-of-the-art methods, particularly in the demanding scenario of adapting to a new dataset.

Existing motion forecasting models, while making progress, struggle to bridge the gap between the source and target domains. Recent solutions often rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. Due to the ever-changing environment, however, the real-world test distribution may experience ongoing/continual shifts over time, leading to catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation when adapting to evolving domains. To solve these challenges, this work introduces HoCoTTA, a framework for homeostatic continual test-time adaptation. It aligns with the knowledge distillation and parameter isolation paradigm, enabling the identification of domain-invariant and domain-specific knowledge, where the former is shared (to be retained) in continual TTA across domains, while the latter needs to be updated. Specifically, we propose a multi-domain homeostasis assessment to estimate the uncertainty of the current model parameter when faced with novel-domain samples. Then, the Fisher information matrix is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, with larger indicating the domain-sensitive parameter, and vice versa. Moreover, we propose an isolated parameter optimization strategy to update those domain-specific parameters to adapt to the new-domain, while preserving the invariant ones. In our experimental result, HoCoTTA outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches on several benchmarks, especially excelling in addressing continuous domain drifts, achieving a large improvement. + +Keywords: Deterministic Human Motion Forecasting $\cdot$ Domain Generalization $\cdot$ Test-time Domain Adaptation $\cdot$ Parameter Isolation Update + +# 1 Introduction + +Given a series of historical poses, human motion forecasting aims to forecast the future pose as close as possible to the actual one, which has great potential in autonomous driving and human-robot cooperation [14,35,43,50,54,60]. + +![](images/78231467fe18d3854b96083282bb0c1d043123a3242aec262de7642af6d6cfa1.jpg) +Fig. 1: In contrast to the standard TTA, which updates the full model at test-time, our HoCoTTA is able to identify the domain-invariant and domain-sensitive parameter, and retain the former while adapting the latter to the new domain. It therefore alleviates the catastrophic forgetting and adapt to the continually-changing target distributions, achieving a closer prediction result (green-red skeleton) to the ground truth (blue skeleton) against the state-of-the-art baseline [12]. + +Recently, this compelling topic has gained increased attention, emerging as a promising research direction [2,4,10,23,30,47,71]. Deep end-to-end networks have been sought-after to tackle this issue, which typically default to the training and test data are under the same distribution [25,57,64]. However, this assumption is often violated in real-world setups due to a large distribution gap between the source and target domains, such as the presence of novel motion patterns during testing. + +Researchers attempt to use test-time adaptation (TTA) to address this issue [9, 11, 12, 26, 59, 66, 74], which considers the target domain to be stationary, and is expected to update the source-trained model for adaptation at test-time. Despite encouraging results, they usually face a dynamically-evolving environment over time, where the distribution of target motion sequences is not static but continuously changing. Stated in a different way, for sequentially arriving motion samples in the real deployment scenario, the continuous distribution shifts are inevitable. We notice that the existing approaches [11, 12] are sub-optimal in adapting to the continually-changing target distributions, leading to a large prediction error, which restricts their practical applications. + +To address this issue, this work proposes a novel homeostatic continual test-time adaptation (HoCoTTA) framework, which is able to adapt to the continually-changing target distributions, and alleviate the catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation. Following the knowledge distillation paradigm [12,33,40,69], our HoCoTTA involves a teacher $\pmb{\theta}_{T}$ and a student network $\pmb{\theta}_{S}$ with identical architectures, selectively derived from existing or newly-designed motion forecasting networks. In contrast to the student, the teacher is preceded by a multi-domain augumenter $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ , which is trained to generate novel-domain augmentations for each sample $\mathbf{X}^{(0)}$ . Then, both augmented and original samples are fed into the teacher to produce the corresponding intermediate predictions in parallel. Comparing these predictions with the original one, the uncertainty matrix is computed to gauge the model's confidence level in its predictions under distribution shifts. Furthermore, the Fisher information matrix [39, 62] is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, with larger indicating the domain-sensitive + +parameter, and vice versa. We therefore leverage the $\tau$ -quantile to isolate the domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters. Then, we propose an isolated parameter optimization strategy to update those domain-specific parameters to adapt to the new-domain, while preserving the invariant ones, as shown in Fig.1. This strategy helps alleviate excessive forgetting of previously-learned information, and avoid the errors accumulation, when adapting to continuously changing target distributions. Therefore, the better prediction results are achieved. + +Our main contributions are summarized as follows: 1) We propose the homeostatic continual test-time adaptation (HoCoTTA) framework to address the realism of the non-stationary target distribution in test motion sequences. 2) We propose to access the model's uncertainty, allowing the isolation of the domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters, which is able to alleviate the catastrophic forgetting. 3) Experiments on several benchmarks show that our HoCoTTA outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches, especially excelling in addressing continuous domain drifts, achieving a significant improvement. + +# 2 Related Work + +Human Motion Forecasting. Recent progresses have revealed the huge potential of deep learning-based approaches for deterministic motion prediction, establishing them as the prevailing technique [4,14,45,56,76]. Earlier works typically rely on the variants of RNNs to formulate this task as a sequence regression problem, aiming to mapping the past observed sequence to the future ones [17,21,50]. Despite capturing temporal correlation, RNNs suffer from the static predicted pose, and significant discontinuity. Forward networks are therefore introduced to address this issue, especially graph convolution networks with a higher interpretability, which are able to capture the semantic connectivity of 3D human skeletons, and gradually becoming the current dominant [13,14,34,35,48,71]. + +Despite great progress most approaches assume the source and target domains are identical, which is a harsh condition in practical applications, where the target domain often differs from the source one. To address it, recent TTA works [11, 12] are proposed, and adapt the pre-trained model to unseen target domains at test-time. However, these methods still rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. In contrast, this work embraces a more realistic scenario, in which the target distributions is not only different from the source one, but also undergoes continuous changes over time. + +Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) is a widely-recognized method in computer vision aimed at training models capable of generalizing to unseen domains [15, 19, 29, 73]. In the UDA context, diverse augmentation strategies are employed on both source and target domain data to mitigate the distribution gap, encompassing color/light shifts, rotations, and cropping [16, 36, 67], all designed to transfer the domain-invariant knowledge gained from these augmentations to aid the better adaptation to the target domain [51, 52]. In contrast to conventional UDA, our approach assesses the prediction uncertainty resulting from multiple augmentations in the new domains, allowing us to identify and + +update domain-sensitive parameters. Moreover, we also consider data privacy, ensuring that source domain data is not required during test-time adaptation. + +Test-time Adaptation (TTA) is an alternative, situated within the source-free domain adaptation paradigm [27, 31, 41, 42, 72, 74, 75]. It permits the fine-tuning of pre-trained models during inference, adapting them to specific test samples and facilitating more customized final decisions. TENT [68] commences with a source pre-trained model and exclusively updates the BN parameters, which is accomplished by minimizing the entropy in test predictions. AdaContrast [8] introduces weak and strong augmentation to enable the contrastive learning that refines the pseudo labeling of the target domain. [65] proposes an adversarial augmentation module to further enhance the knowledge distillation. We note that, whereas, the standard TTA needs to access to the full test data, which is often unrealistic for online applications of human motion forecasting. + +Continual TTA. Typical TTAs often overlook the changing target distributions over time, leading to the proposal of continual test-time adaptation (CTTA) to address this issue [6, 18, 18, 20, 58, 61, 69]. In particular, [69] introduces the CoTTA model, a teacher-student framework, and incorporates a random restoration strategy to mitigate the catastrophic forgetting. Adhering to the teacher-student paradigm, [6] proposes a probabilistic version of CTTA (called PETAL), which regularizes the model update at inference time to prevent model drift. [58] tracks the progress of continual learning [5,44], and proposes a pruning-based approach to investigate the domain-specific capacity. Our method follows the above progress and breaks it further, and proposes to accurately identify the domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters, and update them separately, which is able to alleviate the catastrophic forgetting of past domains and error accumulation in continual adaptation. + +# 3 Proposed Approach + +# 3.1 Problem Formulation + +Suppose $\mathbf{X}_{1:T} = [\pmb{x}_1, \pmb{x}_2, \dots, \pmb{x}_T] \in \mathcal{X}$ is the past observed poses of a person, and human motion forecasting aims to generate the future sequence $\mathbf{Y}_{1:\Delta T} = [\pmb{y}_1, \pmb{y}_2, \dots, \pmb{y}_{\Delta T}] \in \mathcal{V}$ , with each frame being the 3D coordinates of $N$ joints. Most existing models [14, 45, 50, 76] are trained on the source domain $S = \{(X, Y)^{(i)}\}_{i=1}^{|\mathcal{S}|}$ , w.r.t. training data size $|\mathcal{S}|$ , and apply it to the target domain $\mathcal{T}$ , under the assumption of $S = \mathcal{T}$ . Recent advances [11, 12] in motion prediction challenge this assumption, suggesting that the target domain differs from the source one: $S \neq \mathcal{T}$ , though still assuming an idealized setting: the target domains are static, i.e., $\mathcal{T}_1 = \mathcal{T}_2 = \dots = \mathcal{T}_n$ . + +Considering environmental changes and individual behavioral patterns, our work introduces a novel and more realistic scenario, in which target domains and source one is not same: $S \neq \mathcal{T}_{1:n}$ , and target domains are subject to ongoing change: $\mathcal{T}_1 \neq \mathcal{T}_2 \neq \ldots \neq \mathcal{T}_n, n > 1$ . Moreover, we propose a homeostatic continual test-time adaptation (HoCoTTA) to solve it. + +![](images/0aa6448b343738583c89e9647ec99d3dae578a8dae3286ac815c067534f2bbce.jpg) +Continually-changing Target Distributions Over Time +Fig. 2: Homeostatic continual test-time adaptation (HoCoTTA). It is first trained on the source data to achieve a base model, and then adapted to $n$ target domains. The network is composed of a teacher $\theta_T$ and a student $\theta_S$ , with identical architectures. The teacher is preceded by a trained novel-domain augmenter $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ , which is able to generate diverse augmentations and estimate the model's uncertainty for new-domains. Then, Fisher information matrix is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, where the larger indicates the domain-sensitive parameter, and vice versa. We leverage the $\tau$ -quantile to separately isolate and update the domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters. It alleviate the catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation in adapting to continually-changing target samples, and therefore brings the better prediction. + +Our HoCoTTA aligns with the well-known knowledge distillation paradigm, incorporating a teacher $\theta_T$ and a student network $\theta_S$ , with identical networks. In contrast to the existing methods [11,12,45,48,70], it offers several advantages: 1) The teacher network is equipped with a novel-domain augmenter, providing the capability to identify the model's sensitivity and homeostasis concerning new domains. 2) Then, the Fisher information matrix is estimated to isolate domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters in the student network. 3) In the subsequent test-time adaptation, the domain-sensitive parameters are updated, while the domain-invariant ones are preserved, to alleviate the catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation, as shown in Fig.2. + +# 3.2 Multi-Domain Homeostasis Assessment + +The teacher $\theta_T$ is front-loaded with a multi-domain augmenter $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ , and multiple novel-domain samples are fed into it to generate the corresponding intermediate predictions. Then, using uncertainty estimation, the model's steady-state/homeostasis for the new domain data is assessed. + +Multi-domain augmenter. Recent advances show that the augmentation is an effective strategy to improve the cross-domain generalization ability [12, 52, 69]. Motivated by them, our multi-domain augmenter $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ is proposed, which falls into the adversarial learning paradigm, w.r.t. the trainable parameter $\phi$ . + +Specifically, $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ is trained to augment $H$ new-domain samples: $\tilde{\pmb{X}}_h = \mathcal{A}_{\phi}(\pmb {X})$ aiming for as much diversity as possible. Here, $\tilde{\pmb{X}}_h$ is an augmented sample from + +the set $\{\tilde{\pmb{X}}_h\}_{h = 1}^H$ , and $\pmb{X}$ is the original one. We denote $\cos\_sim$ as the cosine similarity. The training objective has two terms, where the variability loss $\mathcal{L}_{var}$ encourages the diversity among the $H$ augmentations, defined as: + +$$ +\max _ {\mathcal {A} _ {\phi}} \mathcal {L} _ {v a r} (\tilde {\boldsymbol {X}} _ {i}, \tilde {\boldsymbol {X}} _ {j}) = \frac {1}{H (H - 1)} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {H} \sum_ {j \neq i} \cos_ {-} s i m (\tilde {\boldsymbol {X}} _ {i}, \tilde {\boldsymbol {X}} _ {j}). \tag {1} +$$ + +Then, the content consistency loss $\mathcal{L}_{con}$ ensures the similarity of motion contexts between the original and augmented samples: + +$$ +\min _ {\mathcal {A} _ {\phi}} \mathcal {L} _ {c o n} = \frac {1}{H} \sum_ {h = 1} ^ {H} \left\| \tilde {\boldsymbol {X}} _ {h} - \boldsymbol {X} \right\| _ {2}. \tag {2} +$$ + +These objectives collectively guide the training of $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ to produce diverse augmentations while maintaining content consistency with the original samples. + +Intuitively, $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ can be conceptualized as a diverse motion generation model. For simplicity, it is implemented as the similar architecture in [47], expect for min-max adversarial training and a more streamlined architecture (9 GCN layers). Once $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ is trained, it is used to generate $H$ augmented samples $\{\tilde{\pmb{X}}_h\}_{h = 1}^H$ , and then fed into the teacher $\pmb{\theta}_T$ to generate the corresponding intermediate predictions $\{\tilde{\pmb{Y}}_h\}_{h = 1}^H$ . In this work, the hyperparameter $H$ is set as 24. + +Homeostasis assessment, also called uncertainty estimation [38, 53, 55], is widely-used to quantify the model's confidence level in its predictions under distribution shifts. While the confidence score is a common measure to assess prediction reliability, it tends to fluctuate irregularly and becomes unreliable in continual changing environment. To overcome this issue, we draw inspiration from the homeostasis mechanism in biological systems [38], which can determine the sensitivity of the model and then assess the model's stability in handling new domains. + +Concretely, given the intermediate predictions $\{\tilde{Y}_h\}_{h=1}^H$ and the original one $\{\tilde{Y}\}$ obtained from $\mathcal{A}_{\phi}$ , we compute the difference between $\{\tilde{Y}_h\}_{h=1}^H$ and $\tilde{Y}$ to form $H$ sets of probability distribution matrix, and take the average of them as the uncertainty matrix $U$ , defined as: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {U} = \exp \left(- \frac {1}{H} \sum_ {h = 1} ^ {H} \left| \frac {\tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {h}}{\| \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {h} \| _ {2}} - \frac {\tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}}}{\| \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} \| _ {2}} \right|\right). \tag {3} +$$ + +We note that $\pmb{U}$ is an $N\times \Delta T$ matrix, where each element indicates the model's uncertainty score of the corresponding joint. The smaller the value, the lower homeostasis the model (more sensitive to the novel domain), and vice versa, which aids in the isolation of domain-sensitive parameters. + +# 3.3 Domain Parameter Isolation + +In dynamic environments, where target domain data continually changes and exhibits different distribution shifts over times, effective domain transfer becomes + +crucial. To reduce error accumulation and catastrophic forgetting, it is necessary to isolate the different knowledge, and manage or utilize them separately. + +For this purpose, the data-driven domain parameter isolation is proposed. Fisher information matrix (FIM) has proven to be an effective tool for measuring the importance of the model parameter. Building on recent advancements [6,39], FIM is therefore used to identify which parameters in the teacher model are sensitive to the new domains, and which ones are more homeostatic. Then, the results of parameter isolation is transferred to the student network, and allows for a separated optimization strategy in continual TTA phase. + +For the sake the simplicity, we use the same symbol $\pmb{\theta}_T \in \mathbb{R}^P$ to represent the flattened parameter of the teacher model, as well as $\pmb{\theta}_S \in \mathbb{R}^P$ for the student, where $P$ is the parameter dimension. The FIM $\pmb{F}(\pmb{\theta})$ is typically defined as the expectation of the second derivative of the log-likelihood function, given by: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {F} (\boldsymbol {\theta}) = \mathbb {E} \left[ \nabla_ {\boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}} \log p (\boldsymbol {U} | \boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}) \nabla_ {\boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}} \log p (\boldsymbol {U} | \boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}) ^ {\top} \right], \tag {4} +$$ + +where $\pmb{F}(\pmb{\theta})$ is a $P\times P$ matrix, and $p(\pmb {U}|\pmb {\theta}_T)$ is the probability density function of $\pmb{U}$ . We note that, $\pmb {F}(\pmb {\theta})$ is a positive semi-definite matrix, and its diagonal elements represent the importance of each parameter, while the off-diagonal elements denote the correlation between parameters. + +For the lower calculation and higher interpretability, we assume the parameters are independent, and utilize the diagonal elements of $\pmb{F}(\pmb{\theta})$ to form an approximation $\pmb{I}(\pmb{\theta})$ : + +$$ +\boldsymbol {I} (\boldsymbol {\theta}) = \operatorname {D i a g} \left(\left(\nabla_ {\boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}} \mathcal {L} (\boldsymbol {U})\right) \left(\nabla_ {\boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T}} \mathcal {L} (\boldsymbol {U})\right) ^ {\intercal}\right). \tag {5} +$$ + +We note that $\pmb{I}(\pmb{\theta}) \in \mathbb{R}^{P}$ has the identical dimension with $\pmb{\theta}_{T}$ and $\pmb{\theta}_{S}$ . $\mathcal{L}$ is simply implemented as the L2 norm. + +Because $\pmb{U}$ estimates the uncertainty against the $H$ novel domains, the elements of $I(\pmb{\theta})$ indicate the sensitivity of the model parameter, where some are sensitive to the new domains, and the rest is more homeostatic. To achieve it, we use a binary mask $\pmb{m} \in \{0,1\}^P$ to isolate the parameters: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {m} \sim \operatorname {B e r n o u l l i} (\alpha), \tag {6} +$$ + +where $\alpha$ is the probability of 1. Here, based on $I(\pmb{\theta})$ of FIM, each element $\pmb{m}_p$ of $\pmb{m}$ is set using the following rule: + +$$ +\boldsymbol {m} _ {p} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l} 1, \text {i f} \boldsymbol {I} (\boldsymbol {\theta}) _ {p} > \tau \text {- q u a n t i l e} \\ 0, \text {o t h e r w i s e} \end{array} , p = 1.,.,. P, \right. \tag {7} +$$ + +where $\tau$ -quantile is a threshold, and we set $\tau = 0.2$ in all experiments. We note that, the above rule means that the top $\tau$ -quantile parameters, w.r.t. $\pmb{m} \otimes \pmb{\theta}$ , with the largest values in $\pmb{I}(\pmb{\theta})$ are selected as the domain-sensitive ones (need to be update for current domain), and the rest, $(1 - m) \otimes \pmb{\theta}$ , as the domain-invariant ones (need to be retained). + +# 3.4 Homeostatic Test-time Adaptation + +In continual TTA, we propose to isolate the full model into two parts: domain-sensitive and domain-invariant parameters. To manage and update them separately, we propose a novel homeostatic test-time parameter optimization strategy, which is implemented as the following two steps: + +Isolated parameter optimization. Since $m$ indicates those domain-sensitive weights in teacher model $\pmb{\theta}_{T}$ as well as those stable ones, we further transfer it to the student network $\pmb{\theta}_{S}$ , and isolate the parameters as well. For a sample $\pmb{X}^{(0)}$ from unseen domains, it is fed into both non-optimized student and teacher networks, to attain $\tilde{\pmb{Y}}_S^{(0)} = \pmb{\theta}_S(\pmb{X}^{(0)})$ and $\tilde{\pmb{Y}}_T^{(0)} = \pmb{\theta}_T(\pmb{X}^{(0)})$ , where $\tilde{\pmb{Y}}_T^{(0)}$ is regarded as the pseudo ground truth. Then, we update the domain-sensitive parameters $\pmb{\theta}_{S} \otimes \pmb{m}$ to attain the adapted parameter of the student network, with a single gradient decent step: + +$$ +\mathring {\boldsymbol {\theta}} _ {S} ^ {(0)} \leftarrow \boldsymbol {\theta} _ {S} ^ {(0)} - \eta \nabla_ {\boldsymbol {\theta} _ {S} ^ {(0)}} \mathcal {L} _ {p r e d} \left(\tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {S} ^ {(0)}, \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {T} ^ {(0)}\right) \otimes \boldsymbol {m}, \tag {8} +$$ + +where $\eta = 0.001$ is the learning rate. Here, motivated by [48], the loss function $\mathcal{L}_{pred}$ is defined as the weighted sum of $L_{2}$ distance and bone length loss: + +$$ +\lambda_ {1} \left\| \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {S} ^ {(0)} - \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {T} ^ {(0)} \right\| _ {2} + \lambda_ {2} \mathcal {L} _ {\text {b o n e}} \left(\tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {S} ^ {(0)}, \tilde {\boldsymbol {Y}} _ {T} ^ {(0)}\right), \tag {9} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{L}_{\text{bone}}$ is to compute the difference of bone length between two sequences, and $\lambda_1 = 0.9$ , $\lambda_2 = 0.1$ . Then, a forward pass is performed to predict the future motion $\mathring{\pmb{Y}}_S^{(0)} = \mathring{\pmb{\theta}}_S^{(0)}(\pmb{X}^{(0)})$ using the adapted student model. After the isolated parameter optimization, the domain-invariant parameters $\pmb{\theta}_S \otimes (1 - \pmb{m})$ are preserved, and the domain-sensitive ones $\pmb{\theta}_S \otimes \pmb{m}$ are updated. + +Exponential moving average. Next, the exponential moving average (EMA) is proposed to update the teacher network $\pmb{\theta}_T$ , with a momentum factor $\alpha = 0.99$ : + +$$ +\mathring {\boldsymbol {\theta}} _ {T} ^ {(0)} \leftarrow \alpha \boldsymbol {\theta} _ {T} ^ {(0)} + (1 - \alpha) \mathring {\boldsymbol {\theta}} _ {S} ^ {(0)}, \tag {10} +$$ + +where $\mathring{\pmb{\theta}}_S^{(0)}$ is the adapted student network. Moreover, for the next sample $\pmb{X}^{(1)}$ , the model adaptation begins with $\mathring{\pmb{\theta}}_S^{(0)} \to \pmb{\theta}_S^{(1)}$ and $\mathring{\pmb{\theta}}_T^{(0)} \to \pmb{\theta}_T^{(1)}$ as the initial parameters, and the above process is repeated.

+ +Table 2: Predictive ability for new categories or subjects. We see that our HoCoTTA brings the major improvement over the SoTA H/P-TTP method, indicating that the domain shift across action categories and human subjects can be calibrated. + +ever, for the sake of fairness, it still needs to be evaluated under the common data splitting. Due to the diversity and stochasticity of human motion, even within the same dataset/domain, the distribution of the test samples remains a certain degree of difference from the training ones, representing a form of distribution shift. Therefore, we follows the widely-used data splitting of the used 3 benchmarks to evaluate our HoCoTTA and baselines, which calls the generative predictive ability evaluation, referring to as the experimental setup-1. Table 1 reports the average results of MPJPE, P-MPJPE and PCK@150mm of all 8 methods over the samples of each time step. From the results, we observe that our HoCoTTA achieves the overall best performance on all 3 metrics, which underscores the effectiveness of our proposed HoCoTTA. It also evidences that the common data splitting indeed remains a distribution gap between source training and target testing, which is not considered by the most standard motion prediction approaches. By contrast, our HoCoTTA effectively resolve the out-of-distribution problem in a sequence of test samples, and thus achieves the superior general predictive performance. + +# 4.4 Predictive Ability for New Subjects/Categories + +Consistent with the current TTA-based approaches [11,12], we proceed to evaluate the predictive ability for new subjects and categories, which is referred to as the experimental setup-2. In the real-world deployment scenarios, for the human motion prediction task, the target data often involves new human subjects and categories, diverging from the source training data. Compared to the setup-1, the setup-2 is more significant. Therefore, we construct the following 2 experiments, + +

The average results are reported for each action category. + +where the model is expected to adapt to a new subject or action category during test-time, having been trained on the other subjects or categories. We compare 4 approaches of siMLPe [22] PGBIG [46], SPGSN [34], and H/P-TTP [12]—as they achieve the better general prediction results than the others 3 approaches under the experimental setup-1. The comparison results are provided in Table 2, which evaluates the average results of multiple multi-faceted adaptations for all samples of each unseen subject or category. From the results, we observe that the H/P-TTP and HoCoTTA achieve the better prediction, indicating that the domain shift can be calibrated by the test-time adaptation. In addition, the proposed HoCoTTA brings significant improvement over H/P-TTP, attributed to the preservation of domain-invariant parameters during the continual test-time adaptation phase, thereby avoiding error accumulation. + +# 4.5 Predictive Ability for New Datasets + +In this experiment, we tackle the most challenging scenario, where the target data comes from a new dataset.

The green-red skeleton denotes the ground truth, and the blue is the prediction. Important details are highlighted in the purple box. It is clear that our HoCoTTA achieves the closer result to the ground truth. + +and environments, the distribution shift between the source and target data is more significant than in the previous 2 experimental setups. Specifically, we train the model on the Human3.6M [28], and then adapt it to the GRAB dataset [63], referred to as experimental setup-3. Unlike the setup-1 and setup-2, the experimental setup-3 is newly-introduced in our work, and the existing approaches are not explicitly designed for this scenario. The GRAB dataset contains 26 action sub-types, which are more diverse and complex than the Human3.6M dataset, and we categorize them into 6 cases, according to the similarity of the action types, including A1 passing, A2 eating, A3 drinking, A4 lifting, A5 on, and A6 squeeze. As shown in Table 3, the results of all 5 approaches are reported, where the average performance of each time step across all target samples is evaluated. Under the evidence of the results, we observe that the proposed approach achieves the better performance than the other competitors. This superiority mainly stems from that our HoCoTTA is able to isolate the domain-specific knowledge and retain the cross-domain shared knowledge, which facilitates the continual model adaptation to the various distribution of the new dataset. + +Fig. 3 also illustrates a qualitative comparison of the wineglass-drink activity under the experimental setup-3. + +# 4.6 Ablation Studies + +Here, we conduct the ablation studies to validate the effectiveness of the important aspects in our HoCoTTA. All experiments are designed under the setup-3, to consider the more challenging scene of adapting to a new dataset-GRAB [63]. Moreover, for simplicity, only the MPJPE metric is used. + +We first investigate (1) the proposed isolated parameter update strategy, which is the key to our HoCoTTA. From the Table 4(left), we observe that the isolated parameter update strategy brings a major improvement in the prediction performance, compared to the previous full parameter update strategy. + +In continual TTA phase, the domain-sensitive parameters of student are updated using the isolated parameter optimization strategy, with a learning rate $\eta$ .

As reported in Table 4(right), the SoTA prediction performance is obtained when $\eta = 0.001$ and $\tau = 0.99$ . + +(4) Number of the novel-domain augmentations $H$ has the significance for accessing the model's homeostasis.

To decide its value, we run an ablation analysis, and the optimal value is found to be $\tau = 0.2$ , as in Table 5 (left). + +In Table 5 (right), we analyze (6) the impact of the loss function weights $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ in Eq.

Before making decisions, our HoCoTTA leverages the homeostasis assessment to evaluate the model's uncertainty with respect to the novel domains, and is able to estimate the domain-specific knowledge and isolate it from the cross-domain shared knowledge. It facilitates to preserve the cross-domain shared knowledge to eliminate the catastrophic forgetting, and avoid the error accumulation in continual test-time adaptation. Experiments across various benchmarks show the superior performance of our approach compared to state-of-the-art methods, particularly in the demanding scenario of adapting to a new dataset. These findings underscore the practical significance and robustness of the proposed HoCoTTA approach in the realistic scene. + +# Acknowledgments + +This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (62176125, 62306141), and in part by the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province (BK20220939). + +# References + +1.

Existing motion forecasting models, while making progress, struggle to bridge the gap between the source and target domains. Recent solutions often rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. Due to the ever-changing environment, however, the real-world test distribution may experience ongoing/continual shifts over time, leading to catastrophic forgetting and error accumulation when adapting to evolving domains. To solve these challenges, this work introduces HoCoTTA, a framework for homeostatic continual test-time adaptation. It aligns with the knowledge distillation and parameter isolation paradigm, enabling the identification of domain-invariant and domain-specific knowledge, where the former is shared (to be retained) in continual TTA across domains, while the latter needs to be updated. Specifically, we propose a multi-domain homeostasis assessment to estimate the uncertainty of the current model parameter when faced with novel-domain samples. Then, the Fisher information matrix is computed to measure the parameter sensitivity, with larger indicating the domain-sensitive parameter, and vice versa. Moreover, we propose an isolated parameter optimization strategy to update those domain-specific parameters to adapt to the new-domain, while preserving the invariant ones. In our experimental result, HoCoTTA outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches on several benchmarks, especially excelling in addressing continuous domain drifts, achieving a large improvement." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 4 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Keywords: Deterministic Human Motion Forecasting " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Domain Generalization " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Test-time Domain Adaptation " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\cdot" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 160, + 530, + 455, + 553 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " Parameter Isolation Update" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 587, + 230, + 601 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 587, + 230, + 601 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 587, + 230, + 601 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "1 Introduction" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 611, + 482, + 648 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 611, + 482, + 648 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 611, + 482, + 648 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Given a series of historical poses, human motion forecasting aims to forecast the future pose as close as possible to the actual one, which has great potential in autonomous driving and human-robot cooperation [14,35,43,50,54,60]." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 7 + } + ], + "discarded_blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 134, + 653, + 234, + 666 + ], + "type": "page_footnote", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 134, + 653, + 234, + 666 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 134, + 653, + 234, + 666 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "* Corresponding author" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 8 + } + ], + "page_size": [ + 612, + 792 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "para_blocks": [ + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 133, + 113, + 481, + 193 + ], + "blocks": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 113, + 481, + 193 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 113, + 481, + 193 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 133, + 113, + 481, + 193 + ], + "type": "image", + "image_path": "78231467fe18d3854b96083282bb0c1d043123a3242aec262de7642af6d6cfa1.jpg" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 2, + "angle": 0, + "type": "image_body" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 199, + 482, + 266 + ], + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 199, + 482, + 266 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 199, + 482, + 266 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Fig. 1: In contrast to the standard TTA, which updates the full model at test-time, our HoCoTTA is able to identify the domain-invariant and domain-sensitive parameter, and retain the former while adapting the latter to the new domain.

In particular, [69] introduces the CoTTA model, a teacher-student framework, and incorporates a random restoration strategy to mitigate the catastrophic forgetting. Adhering to the teacher-student paradigm, [6] proposes a probabilistic version of CTTA (called PETAL), which regularizes the model update at inference time to prevent model drift. [58] tracks the progress of continual learning [5,44], and proposes a pruning-based approach to investigate the domain-specific capacity.

Therefore, we follows the widely-used data splitting of the used 3 benchmarks to evaluate our HoCoTTA and baselines, which calls the generative predictive ability evaluation, referring to as the experimental setup-1. Table 1 reports the average results of MPJPE, P-MPJPE and PCK@150mm of all 8 methods over the samples of each time step. From the results, we observe that our HoCoTTA achieves the overall best performance on all 3 metrics, which underscores the effectiveness of our proposed HoCoTTA. It also evidences that the common data splitting indeed remains a distribution gap between source training and target testing, which is not considered by the most standard motion prediction approaches.

Before making decisions, our HoCoTTA leverages the homeostasis assessment to evaluate the model's uncertainty with respect to the novel domains, and is able to estimate the domain-specific knowledge and isolate it from the cross-domain shared knowledge. It facilitates to preserve the cross-domain shared knowledge to eliminate the catastrophic forgetting, and avoid the error accumulation in continual test-time adaptation. Experiments across various benchmarks show the superior performance of our approach compared to state-of-the-art methods, particularly in the demanding scenario of adapting to a new dataset.

Existing 2D-to-3D pose lifting networks suffer from poor performance in cross-dataset benchmarks. Although 2D keypoints joined by \"stick-figure\" limbs is the dominant trend, stick-figures do not preserve occlusion information that is inherent in an image, resulting in significant ambiguities that are ruled out when occlusion information is present. In addition, datasets with ground truth 3D poses are much harder to obtain in contrast to similar human annotated 2D datasets. To address these issues, we propose to replace stick figures with abstract images—figures with opaque limbs that preserve occlusion information while implicitly encoding joint locations. We then break down the pose estimation task into two stages: (1) Generating an abstract image from a real image, and (2) garnering the pose from the abstract image.

The abstract image contains opaque limbs that are uniquely color-coded (implicitly defining a part-map).

Opaque 3D humanoid limbs have been used previously; for example their 3D bodies have been ray-traced as a means of determining occlusion [6]; but so far as we know such opaque limbs have never been used to train a CNN directly to estimate 3D pose, nor to augment image datasets by transforming 3D GT keypoints into an unlimited number of synthetic viewpoints (both used to aid training our Stage 2). Our own early tests showed that regression on 3D joint positions performs extremely badly across datasets when the same z-score parameters are used for both training and test sets, and improves only marginally if the normalization parameters are independently computed for both training and test sets (which is infeasible in the field, but is reported in Tab. 3 below). Conversely, voxel regression [27] presents a trade-off in performance vs. memory footprint as voxel resolution is increased. Our pose encoding (1) does not require training set dependent normalization, (2) takes much less memory than a voxel-based representation, and (3) being heatmap-based, it integrates well in a fully-convolutional setup. Finally, most methods encode the viewpoint using a rotation matrix, sine and cosines, or quaternions; all of these methods suffer from a discontinuous mapping at $2\\pi$ .

Existing 2D-to-3D pose lifting networks suffer from poor performance in cross-dataset benchmarks. Although 2D keypoints joined by \"stick-figure\" limbs is the dominant trend, stick-figures do not preserve occlusion information that is inherent in an image, resulting in significant ambiguities that are ruled out when occlusion information is present. In addition, datasets with ground truth 3D poses are much harder to obtain in contrast to similar human annotated 2D datasets. To address these issues, we propose to replace stick figures with abstract images—figures with opaque limbs that preserve occlusion information while implicitly encoding joint locations. We then break down the pose estimation task into two stages: (1) Generating an abstract image from a real image, and (2) garnering the pose from the abstract image. Crucially, given the GT 3D keypoints for a particular pose, we can synthesize an arbitrary number of abstract images of the same pose as seen from arbitrary cameras, even without a part map. Given a set of 3D GT keypoints, this allows training of Stage (2) on an unlimited dataset without over-training, which in turn allows us to correctly interpret poses from arbitrary viewpoints not included in the original dataset. Additionally, our unlimited training of Stage 2 allows good generalizations across datasets, demonstrated through a significant improvement in cross-dataset benchmarks, while still showing competitive performance in same-dataset benchmark." + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.619, + 0.788, + 0.651 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: 3D Human Pose Estimation \\(\\cdot\\) Cross-Dataset Generalization \\(\\cdot\\) Viewpoint Encoding" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.673, + 0.377, + 0.691 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.704, + 0.787, + 0.78 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Recent work on 3D human pose estimation from still images can be classified into two main groups: direct-from-image methods [17, 18, 26, 27, 32, 33, 47], and methods that use intermediate 2D/2.5D keypoints [4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 16, 20, 42, 45, 50].

Opaque 3D humanoid limbs have been used previously; for example their 3D bodies have been ray-traced as a means of determining occlusion [6]; but so far as we know such opaque limbs have never been used to train a CNN directly to estimate 3D pose, nor to augment image datasets by transforming 3D GT keypoints into an unlimited number of synthetic viewpoints (both used to aid training our Stage 2). Our own early tests showed that regression on 3D joint positions performs extremely badly across datasets when the same z-score parameters are used for both training and test sets, and improves only marginally if the normalization parameters are independently computed for both training and test sets (which is infeasible in the field, but is reported in Tab. 3 below). Conversely, voxel regression [27] presents a trade-off in performance vs. memory footprint as voxel resolution is increased. Our pose encoding (1) does not require training set dependent normalization, (2) takes much less memory than a voxel-based representation, and (3) being heatmap-based, it integrates well in a fully-convolutional setup. Finally, most methods encode the viewpoint using a rotation matrix, sine and cosines, or quaternions; all of these methods suffer from a discontinuous mapping at \\(2\\pi\\). In contrast, our method avoids discontinuities by mapping both pose and viewpoint heatmaps to a cylinder that wraps around at \\(2\\pi\\)." + } + ], + [ + { + "type": "header", + "bbox": [ + 0.281, + 0.115, + 0.733, + 0.13 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Human Pose Recognition via Occlusion-Preserving Abstract Images" + }, + { + "type": "page_number", + "bbox": [ + 0.775, + 0.117, + 0.785, + 0.127 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "5" + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 0.245, + 0.169, + 0.357, + 0.256 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": null + }, + { + "type": "image_caption", + "bbox": [ + 0.245, + 0.259, + 0.355, + 0.271 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "(a) Synthetic Env." + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 0.377, + 0.169, + 0.495, + 0.258 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": null + }, + { + "type": "image_caption", + "bbox": [ + 0.379, + 0.259, + 0.49, + 0.271 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "(b) Cube Abstract" + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 0.518, + 0.149, + 0.623, + 0.253 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": null + }, + { + "type": "image_caption", + "bbox": [ + 0.51, + 0.258, + 0.631, + 0.27 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "(c) Limb Generation" + }, + { + "type": "image", + "bbox": [ + 0.648, + 0.149, + 0.761, + 0.253 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": null + }, + { + "type": "image_caption", + "bbox": [ + 0.643, + 0.258, + 0.768, + 0.27 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "(d) Torso Generation" + }, + { + "type": "image_caption", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.282, + 0.788, + 0.352 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Fig. 3: (a) Synthetic environment setup: Cameras are arranged spherically, all pointing to \\( f \\) (magenta dot near the center).

Existing 2D-to-3D pose lifting networks suffer from poor performance in cross-dataset benchmarks. Although 2D keypoints joined by "stick-figure" limbs is the dominant trend, stick-figures do not preserve occlusion information that is inherent in an image, resulting in significant ambiguities that are ruled out when occlusion information is present. In addition, datasets with ground truth 3D poses are much harder to obtain in contrast to similar human annotated 2D datasets. To address these issues, we propose to replace stick figures with abstract images—figures with opaque limbs that preserve occlusion information while implicitly encoding joint locations. We then break down the pose estimation task into two stages: (1) Generating an abstract image from a real image, and (2) garnering the pose from the abstract image. Crucially, given the GT 3D keypoints for a particular pose, we can synthesize an arbitrary number of abstract images of the same pose as seen from arbitrary cameras, even without a part map. Given a set of 3D GT keypoints, this allows training of Stage (2) on an unlimited dataset without over-training, which in turn allows us to correctly interpret poses from arbitrary viewpoints not included in the original dataset. Additionally, our unlimited training of Stage 2 allows good generalizations across datasets, demonstrated through a significant improvement in cross-dataset benchmarks, while still showing competitive performance in same-dataset benchmark. + +Keywords: 3D Human Pose Estimation $\cdot$ Cross-Dataset Generalization $\cdot$ Viewpoint Encoding + +# 1 Introduction + +Recent work on 3D human pose estimation from still images can be classified into two main groups: direct-from-image methods [17, 18, 26, 27, 32, 33, 47], and methods that use intermediate 2D/2.5D keypoints [4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 16, 20, 42, 45, 50]. Keypointing has resulted in a number of methods that "lift" the 3D pose from the intermediate 2D keypoints and their associated "stick-figure" limbs (cf. Fig. 1). + +Unfortunately, stick figures are "see-through"—they do not preserve occlusion information that is clearly visible in real images [26, 46]. This introduces myriad problems, for example failing to correctly distinguish left-from-right viewpoints when limbs from opposite sides overlap (Figs. 1a and 1b). Current methods also + +![](images/43a6e85efc43e6931e9a4157b0b1c9b50810a52131f7c767fc32f53a87145553.jpg) +(a) Left view (sitting) + +![](images/53bd86b2ec53b50e7ed1c17520bddf60d01905bb6fa78aa9da5e1ba622281109.jpg) +(b) Left view (yoga) +Fig. 1: Poses that are indistinguishable without occlusion. Crucially, this implies that the "stick-figure"-to-posed mapping is, mathematically, not a 1-to-1 function. + +![](images/ba23dcd8b33111a4bc13b43464cd8c8b2db25875efd71350d85803a7acae7847.jpg) +(c) Front view + +perform poorly across datasets [10, 39] because they depend on both camera viewing angle, and z-score normalization [16, 23, 30, 32, 36, 37, 45, 50], which likely changes the prior between datasets. Solving these problems requires us to (1) estimate the viewpoint accurately, (2) avoid discarding occlusion information, and (3) avoid camera-dependent metrics derived from the training set. + +To simultaneously solve all of these problems, we propose training on synthetic "abstract" images of real human poses viewed from a virtually unlimited number of viewpoints. We address the viewpoint bias (Fig. 1) with a novel encoding that creates a mathematical 1-to-1 mapping between the camera viewpoint and the input image; a similar 1-to-1 encoding defines the pose. Both encodings support fully-convolutional training. As depicted in Fig. 2, our method uses the abstract image as input to two networks: one for viewpoint, and another for pose. At inference time, we (1) generate the abstract image from a real image, and (2) take the predicted viewpoint and pose from the abstract image to reconstruct the 3D pose. Since reconstruction does not ensure the correct forward facing direction of the subject, the ground-truth target pose will be related to the reconstructed pose by a simple rotation to compare with other methods. + +A key observation is that the camera viewpoint as seen from the subject, and the subject's observed pose as seen from the camera, are independent: although they are intimately tied together in the sense that both are needed to fully reconstruct an abstract image—and thus a pose—they answer completely separate questions. More explicitly: (1) the location of the camera as viewed from the subject is completely independent of the subject's pose; and (2) the pose of the subject is completely independent of where the camera is located. + +The "abstract-to-pose" part of our method (Stage 2) decomposes 3D human pose recognition into the above two orthogonal components: (1) the camera's location in subject-centered coordinates, and (2) the observed pose of the subject in camera coordinates. Note that identical three-dimensional poses from different viewpoints will change both answers, but combining the answers should always allow us to reconstruct the same subject-centered pose. + +This, then, is our "secret sauce": by incorporating occlusion information, we can independently train two fully convolutional systems: one that learns a 1-to-1 mapping between images and the subject-centered camera viewpoint, and another that learns a 1-to-1 mapping between images and camera-centered pose. The final ingredient is to train these two CNN's using a virtually unlimited set of abstract images, with occlusion, generated from randomly chosen camera + +![](images/9645fe307abde1262b4766e1d50c585fe192a33622f8fe700e4d497e8db160e7.jpg) +Fig. 2: Overview Dashed arrows indicate our custom supervision targets: limb occlusion matrix, viewpoint heatmap, 3D pose heatmap, and abstract images. Stage 1 has two phases: first, the "image-to-abstract" network optimizes a binary cross-entropy loss for the limb occlusion matrix and MSE loss for the 2D keypoint heatmaps; the second draws the abstract image with limb occlusion matrix as a $z$ -buffer and 2D keypoints as the core structure. Stage 2: generate abstract images (both flat and cube variants) from a random viewpoint and 3D pose pairs using the synthetic environment. The viewpoint and pose heatmaps—generated by the synthetic environment—are used as supervision targets for the abstract to viewpoint and pose networks. The "abstract to pose and viewpoint" network optimize the L2 loss on the output of viewpoint and pose network. The Reconstruction stage takes viewpoint and pose heatmaps from Stage 2, using a random synthetic environment to reconstruct the 3D pose. + +viewpoints observing the ground-truth 3D joint locations of real humans in real poses. Given a sufficiently large (synthetic) dataset of abstract images, we are able to independently train two CNNs that reliably encode the two 1-to-1 mappings. After the above CNNs are trained, the last ingredient we need for a true image-to-pose is a method to create an abstract image from a real input image. We outline our "image-to-abstract" method in Secs. 3.2 and 4 which shows competitive performance indicating adaptability in real-world scenario. + +The key contributions of our paper are: + +1. We replace "stick figures" with abstract images as the intermediate representation between images and poses. We represent limbs as opaque, solid, rectangular blocks that preserve occlusion and part-mapping. Using 2D/3D GT keypoints, we can generate synthetic abstract images from an unlimited number of camera viewpoints. +2. Novel viewpoint and pose encoding schemes, which facilitate learning a 1-to-1 mapping with input while preserving a spherical prior; and +3. We significantly improve state-of-the-art performance in cross-dataset benchmark without relying on dataset dependent normalization, and only marginal effects on same-dataset performance. + +# 2 Related Work + +3D Pose Estimation generally involves regression [4, 7, 10, 16, 20, 23, 42, 45, 50] ending with a fully-connected layer, or a voxel-based approach [24, 26, 27, 46] with fully-convolutional supervision, the latter with a target space of size $w \times h \times d \times N$ , where $w$ is the width, $h$ height, $d$ depth, and $N$ is the number of joints. However, position regression requires a training-set-dependent normalization (e.g. z-score) [16, 23, 30, 32, 36, 37, 45, 50]. Both the graph convolution based approach [7, 20, 42, 45, 50] and hypothesis generation approach [16, 30, 37] rely on $z$ -score normalization to improve same-, and most crucially, cross- dataset performance. To address missing depth information, Pavlakos et al. [26] include ordinal relations in training; Zhou et al. [46] use a heatmap triplet-based intermediate representation per part. + +Part Based Approach Kundu et al. [15] applies an unsupervised part-guided approach to 3D pose estimation. From an image, they generate part-segmentation with the help of intermediate 3D pose and a 2D part dictionary. + +Viewpoint Viewpoint estimation generally boils down to regressing some form of $(\theta, \phi)$ [8], rotation matrix [35, 49], or quaternions [39]. Regardless of the approach, everyone agrees on viewpoint estimation relative to the subject. However, relative subject rotation makes it harder to estimate viewpoint accurately. + +Relation to previous work We train on synthetically-generated abstract images of ground-truth 3D human poses. The abstract image contains opaque limbs that are uniquely color-coded (implicitly defining a part-map). We believe the abstract image contains the minimum information required to completely describe a human pose. Opaque 3D humanoid limbs have been used previously; for example their 3D bodies have been ray-traced as a means of determining occlusion [6]; but so far as we know such opaque limbs have never been used to train a CNN directly to estimate 3D pose, nor to augment image datasets by transforming 3D GT keypoints into an unlimited number of synthetic viewpoints (both used to aid training our Stage 2). Our own early tests showed that regression on 3D joint positions performs extremely badly across datasets when the same z-score parameters are used for both training and test sets, and improves only marginally if the normalization parameters are independently computed for both training and test sets (which is infeasible in the field, but is reported in Tab. 3 below). Conversely, voxel regression [27] presents a trade-off in performance vs. memory footprint as voxel resolution is increased. Our pose encoding (1) does not require training set dependent normalization, (2) takes much less memory than a voxel-based representation, and (3) being heatmap-based, it integrates well in a fully-convolutional setup. Finally, most methods encode the viewpoint using a rotation matrix, sine and cosines, or quaternions; all of these methods suffer from a discontinuous mapping at $2\pi$ . In contrast, our method avoids discontinuities by mapping both pose and viewpoint heatmaps to a cylinder that wraps around at $2\pi$ . + +![](images/61f6b4d6dddb8e78844ead330bd1d77555c44052fc426a0acb6eed4df6c72a10.jpg) +(a) Synthetic Env. + +![](images/39ab5af90aa7e0658955aa6dab863f11820e6e902cda7a8f9ed558209e269eb3.jpg) +(b) Cube Abstract + +![](images/0865c3c55eda45399b54b434a1b6e3f0a486904c4ed517721f3eae41cef979a1.jpg) +(c) Limb Generation +Fig. 3: (a) Synthetic environment setup: Cameras are arranged spherically, all pointing to $f$ (magenta dot near the center).

We define $\mathbf{T} \in \mathbb{R}^{X \times Y \times 3}$ , the translation/position of the cameras in X columns and Y rows. As shown in Fig. 3a, the fixed point is defined as, $\pmb{f} = \frac{c}{XY} \sum \mathbf{T}$ , where the constant $c < 0.5$ defines the desired height of the "center"; each camera is related to the room via a rotation matrix, $\mathrm{R} \in \mathbb{R}^{X \times Y \times 3 \times 3}$ . We compute the look vector as $\pmb{l}_{ij} = \pmb{f} - \mathbf{T}_{ij}$ for camera $(i,j)$ and take a cross-product with $-\hat{z}$ as the up vector to compute the right vector $\pmb{r}$ , all of which are fine-tuned to satisfy orthonormality by a series of cross-products. Refer to Sec. 4, for predefined values. + +# 3.2 Abstract Shape Representation + +Our abstract shapes come in two variants: Cube and Flat. Using a mixture of both helps the network learn the underlying pose structure without overfitting. We show later that the flat variant is easy to obtain from images. To ensure that occlusion information is clear in both variants, our robot's 8 limbs and torso use 9 easily-distinguishable, high-contrast colors (Fig. 3b). + +The Cube Variant has 3D limbs and torso formed by cuboids with orthogonal edges formed via appropriate cross-products; limbs (Fig. 3c) have a long axis (a to b) along the bone with a square cross-section, while the torso (Fig. 3d) is longest along the spine and has a rectangular cross-section. While the limb cuboid is generated from a single vector (a to b), the torso is generated by a body-centered coordinate system [39] (see Supplementary for details). All endpoints are compiled into a matrix $\mathrm{X}_{3D} \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times N}$ , where $N$ is the number of vertices. We project these points to $\mathrm{X}_{2D} \in \mathbb{R}^{2 \times N}$ using the focal length $f_{cam}$ and camera + +![](images/5871b9f62425f1f78f5186f301ec40cca388b36b32e3f0222000a7e97c143f81.jpg) +(a) Naive + +![](images/e4d54e464f0ccd40a102a20bb8208599e08f72f133f05301e4dda3d3f2edb0e0.jpg) +(b) Rotation invariant + +![](images/7d73beb717a2b465a45d9bb69afa0a2b985da6a4ab352d8b884ec72c2b31d6d1.jpg) +(c) Seam Lines +Fig. 4: (a) Naïve approach of encoding viewpoint.

Using the QHull algorithm [2], we compute the convex hull of the projected 2D points for each limb. We compute the Euclidean distance between each part's midpoint and the camera. Next, we iterate over the parts in order of longest distance, extract the polygon from hull points, and assign limb colors. While obtaining the 3D variant this way, we obtain a binary limb occlusion matrix for $l$ limbs, $\mathbf{L} \in \mathbb{Z}^{l \times l}$ , where each entry $(u, v)$ determines whether limb $u$ is occluding limb $v$ if there is a polygonal overlap above certain threshold. + +The Flat Variant utilizes the limb occlusion matrix $\mathbf{L}$ and 2D keypoints $\mathbf{X}_{2D}$ to render the abstract image. $\mathbf{L}$ is used to topologically sort the order to render the limbs farthest to nearest. The limbs in this variant can be easily obtained by rendering a rectangle with the 2D endpoints forming a principal axis. If the rectangle area is small — for example if the torso is sideways or a limb points directly at the camera— we inflate to make the limbs more visible. We follow a similar approach while rendering the torso with four endpoints (two hips and two shoulders). The detailed algorithm is presented in the supplementary. + +# 3.3 Viewpoint Encoding + +Fig. 4a shows a naive encoding of azimuth $(\theta)$ and elevation $(\phi)$ , which can result in two viewpoints generating the same image—a serious problem because not even a neural network can circumvent the fact that the viewpoint and pose problems must be 1-to-1 mappings with the input image—i.e., mathematically injective. Our solution preserves the 1-to-1 nature of poses to images (cf. Fig. 5b). + +The matrix representation of our cylindrical coordinates wrap around at the seam line; crucially, we arrange for the viewpoint to always lie behind the subject (Fig. 4c), which ensures the coordinates on the matrix always stay in a fixed point related to the subject's orientation. + +Formally, we compute the cosine distance between the subject's forward vector $\mathbf{F}_s$ projected onto xy-plane of the room $\mathbf{F}_{sp}$ , and camera's forward vector + +$\mathbf{F}_c$ and place the seam line (index 0 and 63 of the matrix) directly behind the subject. Fig. 4b reflects the improvement from Fig. 4a. Note for the same input, we have same viewpoint encoding now. + +To learn a spherical mapping, we have to make the network understand the spherical positioning of the cameras. In general, a normal heatmap-based regression will clip the Gaussian at the border of the matrix. On the contrary, we allow the Gaussian heatmaps in the matrix to wrap around at the boundaries — corresponding to the seam line. Our Gaussian is + +$$ +\mathcal {G} (x, y, \mu_ {x}, \mu_ {y}) = \exp^ {- \frac {(x - \mu_ {x}) ^ {2} + (y - \mu_ {y}) ^ {2}}{2 \sigma^ {2}}}. \tag {1} +$$ + +The associated heatmap is + +$$ +\mathcal {H} ^ {v} [ i, j ] = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} \mathcal {G} (j, i, \mu_ {x}, \mu_ {y}), & \text {i f} | \mu_ {x} - j | < W _ {k}, \\ \mathcal {G} (j - I _ {w}, i, \mu_ {x}, \mu_ {y}), & \text {i f} | j - I _ {w} - \mu_ {x} | < W _ {k}, \\ \mathcal {G} (j + I _ {w}, i, \mu_ {x}, \mu_ {y}), & \text {i f} | \mu_ {x} - I _ {w} - j | < W _ {k}, \end{array} \right. \tag {2} +$$ + +where $(\mu_x, \mu_y)$ is the index of the viewpoint in our rotated synthetic room, $I_w$ is the image size, and $W_k = 2\sigma + 1$ is the kernel width, with $\sigma = 1$ . Algorithm 1 is used to rotate the camera indices in the synthetic room to ensure the camera position is consistent with the subject. This encodes the camera position in subject space and addition of Gaussian heatmap relaxes the area for network to optimize on (i.e. picking an almost approximate neighboring camera). + +# 3.4 Pose Encoding + +We decompose the pose into bone vectors $\mathcal{B}_r$ , and bone lengths $\mathrm{B}_r$ , both relative to parent joint. Let the synthetic environment's selected camera rotation matrix be $\mathrm{R}_{ij}$ , and $\mathcal{B}_{r_{ij}} = \mathrm{R}_{ij}^{\prime}\mathcal{B}_r$ be the bone vectors in $\mathrm{R}_{ij}$ 's coordinate space. Then, we normalize the spherical angles $(\theta, \phi)$ of $\mathcal{B}_{r_{ij}}$ from range $[-2\pi, 2\pi]$ to range + +Algorithm 1: Rotate Camera Array +Data: $S_{e}$ (Synthetic Environment), $\mathbf{F}_s$ (Subject Forward Vector) Result: $\mathrm{T}'$ , $\mathrm{R}'$ +1 $\mathbf{F}_c \gets \mathbf{S}_e$ . camera_forwards; +2 $\mathbf{F}_{sp} \gets \mathbf{F}_s - (\mathbf{F}_s \cdot \hat{z})\hat{z}$ ; +3 $\mathrm{D} \gets \mathbf{F}_c \cdot \mathbf{F}_{sp}$ ; +4 $\mathcal{S} \gets \operatorname{argmax} \mathrm{D}$ ; +5 $\mathcal{I} \gets \mathrm{S}_e$ . original_index_array; +6 $\mathcal{I}_r \gets \operatorname{rotate\_index\_array}(\mathcal{I}, \mathcal{S})$ ; +7 $\mathrm{T} \gets \mathrm{S}_e$ . camera_position; +8 $\mathrm{R} \gets \mathrm{S}_e$ . cameraRotation; +9 $\mathrm{T}' \gets \mathrm{T}[\mathcal{I}_r]$ ; +10 $\mathrm{R}' \gets \mathrm{R}[\mathcal{I}_r]$ ; + +![](images/21a8b0e31a700becbb052e6ed7aba0cd7b38d7764ccc481ede51c31b6a1f9cc9.jpg) +(a) Input image + +![](images/3989a97c0f4af4313d89628937eadfa131d47b18dc3ef8879c6a24a46586d1fb.jpg) +(b) Predicted viewpoint +Fig. 5: A sample output from our network.

Note that this encoding is not dependent on any normalization of the training—and by implication, is also independent of any normalization of the test set. We now have $(\theta ,\phi)$ normalized on a $128\times 128$ grid. We take a similar approach to viewpoint encoding and allow the Gaussian heatmap generated around the matrix locations to wrap around at the boundaries. Note that in the viewpoint encoding, we only need to account for horizontal wrapping, whereas in pose we wrap both coordinates. For joint $i$ and $k_{1},k_{2}\in [-\frac{W_{k}}{2},\frac{W_{k}}{2})$ + +$$ +\mathcal {H} _ {i} ^ {p} [ h, g ] = \mathcal {G} \left(k _ {1}, k _ {2}, 0, 0\right) \tag {3} +$$ + +where $h = \mu_y + k_2(\mathrm{mod} I_w)$ and $g = \mu_y + k_1(\mathrm{mod} I_w)$ . Thus, we have another heatmap-based encoding for the pose. This encoding $\mathcal{H}^p \in \mathbb{R}^{128 \times 128 \times N}$ , where $N$ is the number of joints. Fig. 4d shows a wrapped version of the heatmap. + +# 3.5 Pose Reconstruction in Stage 2 + +Since the camera viewpoint is encoded in a subject-based coordinate system, the first step of pose reconstruction is to transform the camera's position from subject-centered coordinates to world coordinates. The mathematical details are in the Supplementary, but the upshot is shown in Fig. 5, which shows the unseen test output from our actual network. Specifically, in Fig. 5c, note how the reconstructed pose is rotated from the ground-truth pose in Fig. 5d. The arrow shooting out from the subject's left in Fig. 5c, indicates the relative position of the camera when the picture was taken. + +# 4 Implementation + +We calculated average bone lengths for the H36M training set [13]. The viewpoint was discretized into $24 \times 64$ indices, encoded to occupy rows [21, 45] of a $64 \times 64$ heatmap matrix, giving angular resolution $5.625^{\circ}$ . Our synthetic environment uses fixed point scalar (cf. Sec. 3.1) of 0.4, with radius $5569\mathrm{mm}$ . (In principle, we + +could easily include cameras covering the entire sphere, for example to account for images of astronauts floating in the ISS viewed from any angle.) The pose was normalized to fall into the range [0, 128] to occupy a $13 \times 128 \times 128$ matrix, with 13 being the number of limbs since we have 14 joints. For simplicity, we followed similar network architecture for all of the networks. We always use HRNet [31] pretrained on MPII [1], and COCO [19] for feature extraction. + +The "image-to-abstract" network outputs 2D keypoint heatmaps and a binary limb occlusion matrix of dimension $9 \times 9$ . We keep the original architecture for the 2D pose prediction and add a separate branch with a series of three interleaved convolution and batch normalization block with kernel size $3 \times 3$ to reduce the resolution. The reduced output is flattened and passed through two fully connected blocks to output the limb occlusion matrix as an 81D vector. We optimized the mean squared error loss on the 2D heatmaps and binary cross-entropy loss for the limb occlusion matrix. + +The pose network consists two Convolution and Batch Normalization block pairs, followed by a transposed Convolution to match the output size of $128 \times 128$ . All the convolution blocks use a $3 \times 3$ kernel with padding and stride set to 1. The final transposed convolution uses stride 2 and outputs a $13 \times 128 \times 128$ size tensor. For viewpoint estimation, we apply only one Convolution and Batch Normalization pair on the output of HRNet. The final stage is a regular convolution block that shrinks the output channel to 1 and outputs a $1 \times 64 \times 64$ size tensor. Since our target is a heatmap, we applied the standard L2 loss. + +All training used batch size 64, with Adam [14] as our optimizer using Cosine Annealing with warm restart [21] and a learning rate warming from $1 \times 10^{-9}$ to $1 \times 10^{-3}$ . The viewpoint network ran for 200 epochs (2 days), and the pose network ran for 300 epochs (4 days), both on an RTX 3090, though it was stopped early due to convergence. When training the "abstract to pose and viewpoint" network, on every epoch we pick a random set of camera indices and render an abstract image from one of the two variants with equal probability. Thus, no two epochs are the same. This randomness minimizes overfitting—in turn helping with generalization—though it results in longer time-to-convergence. + +# 5 Experiments + +After we explain the datasets, metrics and models used in Sec. 5.1, we first show the results from our method under same dataset benchmark in Sec. 5.2. Then, we shift our focus to generalization capability across datasets in Sec. 5.3. We also report qualitative results in Sec. 5.4 and reflect on other experiments in Sec. 5.5. + +# 5.1 Datasets, Metrics and Models + +Datasets We train our HRNet backbone framework on both MPII [1] and COCO [19] first one 2D keypoint prediction task. For the rest of the task, we only train on Human3.6M dataset [13]. We report cross-dataset results on the test sets of Geometric Pose Affordance Dataset (GPA) [38], 3D Poses in the Wild + +Dataset [22], and SURREAL Dataset [34] dataset. For the details of the dataset please refer to [39]. + +Evaluation Metrics We report Mean Per Joint Position Error (MPJPE) in millimeters, which we call Protocol #1 and MPJPE after Procrustes Alignment (PA-MPJPE) as Protocol #2, following convention. Since the reconstructed pose is related with the ground truth by rotation only, we report it under Protocol #1. Further, PA-MPJPE reduces the error since the reconstruction uses preset bone-lengths. This becomes important in cross-dataset benchmarks. + +Models First, we train our "abstract-to-pose" network with a uniform mixture of Cube and Flat variant of the abstract images, which we will refer to as "Model (Hybrid)". We also trained the same network for fewer epochs on the Cube variant separately which we will refer to as "Model (Cube)". The former is tuned to handle both the flat and cube variant of the abstract image. Since we get the "Flat Abstract Image" from the real world image through the Stage 1 of our approach, the hybrid model can reconstruct the pose from this input. However, the Flat variant is a simplified version of the Cube variant, which is more robust and preserve occlusion. Pitting these two models in contrast to each other helps us further assess the capabilities of both variants and models. + +# 5.2 Conventional Comparisons - Same Dataset + +During training Stage 1, "image to abstract", we fine-tuned the trained HRNet network with H36M's training set along with limb ordering annotations. In Stage 2, "abstract to pose and viewpoint", we take each GT pose and pair it with the corresponding GT synthetically generated abstract image from a randomly chosen synthetic viewpoint taken from our $64 \times 12$ synthetic cameras; for testing, we use only poses and cameras from the real dataset. + +Results are in Tab. 1 and Tab. 2. Our method is competitive with both image (Stage 1 & 2) and abstract image (Stage 2 only) as input. Since the latter is comparable to methods using GT 2D keypoints as input, we compare against such methods when available. We believe this is a fair comparison with our work, since the GT 2D keypoints are projected from 3D joints. During reconstruction, we always use a preset bone-length. PA-MPJPE score on Tab. 2, which includes rigid transformation, accounts for bone-length variation and reduces the error even more. Note that, in both these table we do not claim the lead even though we lead in quite a few cases. Our focus is to prove viability of using abstract image as a replacement for 2D keypoints in lifting networks. Our method is comparable, and sometimes superior, across the board. + +# 5.3 Cross-Dataset Generalization + +Our primary focus is improving cross-dataset performance through extensive training on synthetically generated images. For this experiment, we only consider the case where we train on H36M dataset without any domain adaptation training (e.g. [44]). To test generalization capabilities, we render the images from + +Table 1: Quantitative comparisons of MPJPE (Protocol #1) between the ground truth 3D pose and reconstructed 3D pose.

[39], is the only work with an extensive cross-dataset analysis on 4 datasets. To add more contenders, we re-implemented methods from Martinez et al. [23] and Zhao et al.

Both rely on z-score normalization of the testing set separately from the training set—though we note that such a normalization is impossible "in the wild". Even with this advantage, our method still leads in most cases by $30\% - 40\%$ in cross-dataset performance (cf. Tab. 3). Goel et al. [9] outperforms us in 3DPW dataset.

[45], which shows that we have given them all possible advantages. + +# 5.4 Qualitative Results + +Fig. 6 shows the qualitative performance of our network on H36M. We see viewpoint estimation indicated by the blue arrow on the second column of each test sample. This, indeed shows the accuracy and efficacy of our method on separating viewpoint from pose. + +# 5.5 Ablative and Other Experiments + +Number of Vertical Bins Our synthetic environment has hundreds of cameras placed systematically in "levels" on the sphere, pointing inwards (cf. Sec. 3.1). For this study, we reduced the number of levels. Intuitively, decreasing the number of levels should reduce performance, which is what we see in Fig. 7a. Increase in number of vertical bins shows a global improvement in cross-dataset performance. In Figs. 7b and 7c, we have plotted the azimuth and elevation distribution across all datasets, demonstrating the generalization and augmentation ability of our approach. Notice how our approach that relies on random viewpoints, have an almost uniform distribution. In contrast, notice how majority of the datasets have more data points distributed at the level of the subject. + +Angular Error vs Bin Size With an $N_g \times N_g$ heatmap, we expect performance to decrease with decreasing $N_g$ . From our experiments, the angular error goes up as we decrease the grid resolution.

Fig. 8a). + +Variation in Reconstruction Scale For this experiment, we change the bone lengths that are used to reconstruct the pose, deviating $50\%$ scale up and down from the average bone lengths of an adult person. When comparing we keep the ground-truth at default scale (cf. Fig. 8b. Obviously, the reconstructed pose will not match in scale and the error will increase when deviating from the average bone lengths. However, at the bottom of the V-shaped curve the error deviation is small – which means, if the subject scale varies by a small amount, the error is negligible. As Procrustes alignment is performed first before measuring the error in PA-MPJPE, the curve forms a straight line and stays below the V curve. + +Effect of wrapping on Error We observe the impact of wrapping on the error by computing pose estimation error on all the actions of H36M dataset with and without wrapping enabled. As can be seen in Fig. 8c), we achieve an average of $9.4\mathrm{mm}$ of improvement - from $58.2\mathrm{mm}$ (red) to $48.8\mathrm{mm}$ (blue). In addition, when we toggle wrapping in predicting viewpoint (i.e. naive vs our viewpoint encoding), we see an angular errors are respectively $55.44^{\circ}$ vs. $8.44^{\circ}$ an improvement factor of 6.6. + +![](images/b1f0b476ec9ded5c75c4bb7df1c50f57da86f1372d822b431bd4bf3888d66c9a.jpg) +(a) Error vs Vertical Bins + +![](images/b7872d33425f660aa695b32ff76ae6c12dcd5853d9a6e5cd862714b0d9aaa9f4.jpg) +(b) Azimuth relative to subject + +![](images/a66e294c1c82fae78f17b0615e8a4d385c422f06fc9ad27e5d2e0892d0b51a63.jpg) +(c) Elevation relative to subject + +![](images/768614638b6195d6151acb7e2f210c8353e57ba9766709caa9cb277724bc3929.jpg) +Fig. 7: (a) shows how the global cross-dataset error changes as the number of vertical bins is increased.

Moreover, abstract images also enable augmenting the "lifting" part of the framework to train from a virtually unlimited number of viewpoints. We have also presented an approach to obtain abstract image from real-world images, which shows the applicability of our approach. + +# References + +1.

Existing 2D-to-3D pose lifting networks suffer from poor performance in cross-dataset benchmarks. Although 2D keypoints joined by \"stick-figure\" limbs is the dominant trend, stick-figures do not preserve occlusion information that is inherent in an image, resulting in significant ambiguities that are ruled out when occlusion information is present. In addition, datasets with ground truth 3D poses are much harder to obtain in contrast to similar human annotated 2D datasets. To address these issues, we propose to replace stick figures with abstract images—figures with opaque limbs that preserve occlusion information while implicitly encoding joint locations. We then break down the pose estimation task into two stages: (1) Generating an abstract image from a real image, and (2) garnering the pose from the abstract image.

Given a set of 3D GT keypoints, this allows training of Stage (2) on an unlimited dataset without over-training, which in turn allows us to correctly interpret poses from arbitrary viewpoints not included in the original dataset.

The abstract image contains opaque limbs that are uniquely color-coded (implicitly defining a part-map). We believe the abstract image contains the minimum information required to completely describe a human pose. Opaque 3D humanoid limbs have been used previously; for example their 3D bodies have been ray-traced as a means of determining occlusion [6]; but so far as we know such opaque limbs have never been used to train a CNN directly to estimate 3D pose, nor to augment image datasets by transforming 3D GT keypoints into an unlimited number of synthetic viewpoints (both used to aid training our Stage 2). Our own early tests showed that regression on 3D joint positions performs extremely badly across datasets when the same z-score parameters are used for both training and test sets, and improves only marginally if the normalization parameters are independently computed for both training and test sets (which is infeasible in the field, but is reported in Tab. 3 below). Conversely, voxel regression [27] presents a trade-off in performance vs. memory footprint as voxel resolution is increased. Our pose encoding (1) does not require training set dependent normalization, (2) takes much less memory than a voxel-based representation, and (3) being heatmap-based, it integrates well in a fully-convolutional setup.

Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) systems are increasingly being deployed for estimating population size in large image collections. However, the estimated size can be significantly inaccurate when the task is challenging or when deployed on data from new distributions. We propose a human-in-the-loop approach for estimating population size driven by a pairwise similarity derived from an off-the-shelf Re-ID system. Our approach, based on nested importance sampling, selects pairs of images for human vetting driven by the pairwise similarity, and produces asymptotically unbiased population size estimates with associated confidence intervals. We perform experiments on various animal Re-ID datasets and demonstrate that our method outperforms strong baselines and active clustering approaches. In many cases, we are able to reduce the error rates of the estimated size from around $80\\%$ using CV alone to less than $20\\%$ by vetting a fraction (often less than $0.002\\%$ ) of the total pairs. The cost of vetting reduces with the increase in accuracy and provides a practical approach for population size estimation within a desired tolerance when deploying Re-ID systems.3", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 333, + 743, + 570 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Keywords: Human-in-the-loop $\\cdot$ Re-ID $\\cdot$ Importance sampling", + "bbox": [ + 261, + 583, + 683, + 598 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "1 Introduction", + "text_level": 1, + "bbox": [ + 215, + 625, + 375, + 638 + ], + "page_idx": 0 + }, + { + "type": "text", + "text": "Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) is increasingly being deployed to analyze large image collections for species-level population monitoring [47,56].

We find that population size estimates using these methods can be significantly inaccurate, even with state-of-the-art embeddings (see Table 1).

This problem is more challenging than traditional semi-supervised learning due to the open-world setting. However, we find that the performance of existing GCD approaches is limited by the accuracy of estimating the number of categories in a dataset. Often, existing approaches make the unrealistic assumption that this quantity is known. We show that our approach for estimating the number of clusters has a higher impact on improving GCD than using active clustering algorithms.

Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) systems are increasingly being deployed for estimating population size in large image collections. However, the estimated size can be significantly inaccurate when the task is challenging or when deployed on data from new distributions. We propose a human-in-the-loop approach for estimating population size driven by a pairwise similarity derived from an off-the-shelf Re-ID system. Our approach, based on nested importance sampling, selects pairs of images for human vetting driven by the pairwise similarity, and produces asymptotically unbiased population size estimates with associated confidence intervals. We perform experiments on various animal Re-ID datasets and demonstrate that our method outperforms strong baselines and active clustering approaches. In many cases, we are able to reduce the error rates of the estimated size from around \\(80\\%\\) using CV alone to less than \\(20\\%\\) by vetting a fraction (often less than \\(0.002\\%\\)) of the total pairs. The cost of vetting reduces with the increase in accuracy and provides a practical approach for population size estimation within a desired tolerance when deploying Re-ID systems.3" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.263, + 0.584, + 0.684, + 0.599 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Keywords: Human-in-the-loop \\(\\cdot\\) Re-ID \\(\\cdot\\) Importance sampling" + }, + { + "type": "title", + "bbox": [ + 0.216, + 0.625, + 0.377, + 0.64 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "1 Introduction" + }, + { + "type": "text", + "bbox": [ + 0.214, + 0.65, + 0.788, + 0.786 + ], + "angle": 0, + "content": "Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) is increasingly being deployed to analyze large image collections for species-level population monitoring [47,56].

Since the number of individuals is often unbounded, Re-ID is cast as a pairwise classification task and involves predicting whether two images are of the same individual or not. However, estimating the population size from pairwise similarities is non-trivial. One approach is to use a clustering algorithm such as \\( k \\)-means with the \"elbow heuristic\" [51] to pick \\( k \\). However, there are many algorithms and heuristics to choose from, making the process subjective. Estimated pairwise similarity can also be a poor approximation to the true similarity, especially when models are deployed out-of-distribution or on challenging tasks where the performance of Re-ID is low. For instance, using \\( k \\)-means with the elbow heuristic on the MacaqueFaces dataset [60] using the state-of-the-art \"MegaDescriptor\" [55] results in 80 clusters when the true number of individuals is 34, as seen in Fig. 1.

These techniques range from SIFT [35] and Superpoint-based [18] matching approaches (e.g., WildID [7] and HotSpotter [15]) that work relatively well for species with characteristic patterns on their skin or coats (e.g., Zebras and Jaguars), to complex pipelines designed to identify visual characteristics specific to particular species (e.g., whisker patterns of polar bears [1]). Deep learning approaches have also been developed for some species (e.g., Chimpanzees and Bears) but the training datasets are relatively small. Recent work [55] has attempted to train deep learning models across species by consolidating animal Re-ID datasets and has shown that the model generalizes across species and significantly outperforms prior work, including off-the-shelf image representations such as CLIP [44] and DINOv2 [10].

Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) systems are increasingly being deployed for estimating population size in large image collections. However, the estimated size can be significantly inaccurate when the task is challenging or when deployed on data from new distributions. We propose a human-in-the-loop approach for estimating population size driven by a pairwise similarity derived from an off-the-shelf Re-ID system. Our approach, based on nested importance sampling, selects pairs of images for human vetting driven by the pairwise similarity, and produces asymptotically unbiased population size estimates with associated confidence intervals. We perform experiments on various animal Re-ID datasets and demonstrate that our method outperforms strong baselines and active clustering approaches. In many cases, we are able to reduce the error rates of the estimated size from around $80\%$ using CV alone to less than $20\%$ by vetting a fraction (often less than $0.002\%$ ) of the total pairs. The cost of vetting reduces with the increase in accuracy and provides a practical approach for population size estimation within a desired tolerance when deploying Re-ID systems.3 + +Keywords: Human-in-the-loop $\cdot$ Re-ID $\cdot$ Importance sampling + +# 1 Introduction + +Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) is increasingly being deployed to analyze large image collections for species-level population monitoring [47,56]. The association of individuals across camera sensors provides valuable data about animal movement, population dynamics, geographic distribution, and habitat use, which in turn can inform conservation goals and ecological models [9, 50, 52]. Computer vision can reduce the manual labor associated with individual identification, and there is significant effort from the community to develop tools that facilitate animal Re-ID across a wide range of animal species [1, 5, 7, 15, 55, 59]. + +We consider the task of estimating population size, that is, the number of individuals, in a collection of images using a Re-ID system. Beyond surveys, this + +![](images/0e9177fa99b4a74587c35c7fc890869f4fdda70eaeb8eccc2944c1250aa612ee.jpg) +Fig. 1: Estimating Population Size Using a Re-ID System. (a) A simple approach involves using $k$ -means clustering on image embeddings derived from the Re-ID system and selecting the optimal $k$ using the "elbow heuristic." (b) Active clustering (e.g., pck-means [4]) employs pairwise constraints to enhance clustering accuracy. (c) Our method leverages nested importance sampling to produce asymptotically unbiased estimates and confidence intervals on $k$ directly. (Right) On the MacaqueFaces dataset [60], our approach (Nested-IS) converges to the true $k = 34$ with fewer constraints than alternative methods, but also provides confidence intervals for the estimate (shown as the shaded red region) for any amount of human feedback. + +quantity can inform techniques for category discovery and incremental learning of AI systems [12, 26, 54]. Since the number of individuals is often unbounded, Re-ID is cast as a pairwise classification task and involves predicting whether two images are of the same individual or not. However, estimating the population size from pairwise similarities is non-trivial. One approach is to use a clustering algorithm such as $k$ -means with the "elbow heuristic" [51] to pick $k$ . However, there are many algorithms and heuristics to choose from, making the process subjective. Estimated pairwise similarity can also be a poor approximation to the true similarity, especially when models are deployed out-of-distribution or on challenging tasks where the performance of Re-ID is low. For instance, using $k$ -means with the elbow heuristic on the MacaqueFaces dataset [60] using the state-of-the-art "MegaDescriptor" [55] results in 80 clusters when the true number of individuals is 34, as seen in Fig. 1. Table 1 shows that estimated population size across a variety of animal species and clustering approaches are sometimes off by factor of two or more, which can impact downstream tasks. + +Our approach employs statistical estimation to compute the population size using human feedback on pairwise similarity. We develop an estimator based on nested importance sampling, each iteration driven by the approximate pairwise similarity. Feedback in the form of "same" or "not" on a set of sampled edges is used to estimate the number of clusters as well as to provide a confidence interval. We theoretically demonstrate that the estimator is unbiased, i.e., it converges to the true number of clusters in expectation, and an end user can stop screening when the confidence intervals are sufficiently small. Additionally, we contribute a strong baseline based on farthest-first traversal (FFT) to directly estimate the population size, which, although it does not offer statistical guarantees, outperforms alternative clustering approaches. Our methods + +can employ any off-the-shelf image similarity and do not involve fine-tuning deep representations, thus can be practical for non-AI experts. + +We conduct experiments on seven datasets where the goal is to estimate the number of individuals they contain. These datasets span animal species and exhibit different data distributions, including both short and long-tailed, with varying number of individuals. We also experiment with different image representations from the MegaDescriptor library [55], which provides a unified deep network for various animal Re-ID tasks. The accuracy of the Re-ID system also varies across datasets and are assumed to be unknown, providing a realistic use case for deploying the models. Our approach is more accurate for the same amount of human supervision (sampled pairs) than competing baselines. We also show that the estimator has low bias and produces accurate confidence intervals. In summary, our main contributions are: + +- We study the challenges involved in using Re-ID systems for estimating population size across a range of animal Re-ID datasets. +- We propose a novel approach combining nested importance sampling with human-in-the-loop feedback that produces asymptotically unbiased estimates of population size (§ 3). +- We design confidence intervals that provide intuitive feedback for guiding human effort and setting stopping conditions (§ 3.2). +- We report extensive experiments on a benchmark of seven animal Re-ID datasets with different data distributions, demonstrating that our method achieves significantly lower error than strong baselines with similar human effort. In most cases our approach produces estimates close to the true population size using human feedback on less than $0.004\%$ of all pairs (§ 4). +- We use our framework to estimate the number of categories in a dataset for generalized category discovery [12, 26, 54] and measure the impact on clustering accuracy, on animal Re-ID and fine-grained classification ( $\S$ 4). + +# 2 Related Work + +The task of estimating population size in a dataset is closely related to the problem of grouping individuals using a Re-ID system. However, it is possible to estimate the population size using statistical approaches, such as ours, without fully solving the grouping problem. There is a vast literature in computer vision, especially in face recognition, on building accurate Re-ID systems, as well as using these representations to group individuals. We briefly review these approaches. Our approach focuses on animal Re-ID tasks. This task can be relatively easy for some species that have distinctive patterns but significantly more challenging for others. We review prior work on animal Re-ID and introduce the benchmarks and representations we experiment with. + +Re-ID Systems There is significant prior work on person Re-ID based on face and whole-body recognition (see [31] for a more complete survey). Early techniques, such as Eigenfaces [53], have been replaced by modern deep learning + +approaches [33, 33, 42] trained on large datasets [21, 25]. While significant advances have been made, there are also known issues with poor generalization and bias of Re-ID systems in the presence of demographic shifts [32]. In comparison, techniques for animal Re-ID are less mature. These techniques range from SIFT [35] and Superpoint-based [18] matching approaches (e.g., WildID [7] and HotSpotter [15]) that work relatively well for species with characteristic patterns on their skin or coats (e.g., Zebras and Jaguars), to complex pipelines designed to identify visual characteristics specific to particular species (e.g., whisker patterns of polar bears [1]). Deep learning approaches have also been developed for some species (e.g., Chimpanzees and Bears) but the training datasets are relatively small. Recent work [55] has attempted to train deep learning models across species by consolidating animal Re-ID datasets and has shown that the model generalizes across species and significantly outperforms prior work, including off-the-shelf image representations such as CLIP [44] and DINOv2 [10]. We utilize a set of datasets from their collection (Table 1) and base our population size estimation on the various pre-trained deep networks they provide. Their best-performing model is a Swin-transformer [34] trained with ArcFace loss [17] on the collection of datasets. However, the problem is far from solved – for example, on the WhaleSharkID dataset [24], the performance of the Re-ID system is around $62\%$ , which poses a challenge for population size estimation. + +Clustering The population size can be estimated by determining the number of clusters in a dataset. A common approach involves using clustering algorithms, such as $k$ -means [22], mean-shift [13], which operate directly on embeddings, or graph-based approaches [8, 19, 49] that incorporate pairwise similarity, and determining the number of clusters based on a heuristic. For example, one can compute the within-cluster sum of squares (WCSS) for different values of $k$ in $k$ -means and select the optimal one based on the "elbow heuristic" - the point in the curve where improvements diminish (see Fig. 1). However, there are many clustering algorithms and heuristics available, making the process subjective. We find that population size estimates using these methods can be significantly inaccurate, even with state-of-the-art embeddings (see Table 1). More complex approaches, particularly those incorporating tracking information and sophisticated graph-based clustering (e.g., [19]), have been proposed for grouping in videos. Our primary focus is on image-based approaches using simple clustering algorithms as they are broadly applicable. + +Active Clustering Human feedback can be incorporated to improve clustering in various ways. One can fine-tune the deep network using metric learning [27, 30] approaches to improve the underlying similarity using human feedback, for example thorough pairwise [28] and triplet-based [23] learning. However, these methods require significant compute resources and expertise to set various hyperparameters associated with training, and may not be practical for non-experts. Moreover, fine-tuning on uncurated data often encountered in a real-world deployment of the Re-ID system is rarely effective. Hence, we focus on active clustering approaches that incorporate constraints to improve clustering for a fixed embedding. We compare with a constrained $k$ -means algorithms that use + +![](images/91d26fbdf4d49959c5abbd7b979db42842c988750590df238e098c163661bba7.jpg) +Fig. 2: Counting clusters in a graph. The number of clusters $k = \sum_{u=1}^{n} \frac{1}{(1 + d(u))}$ , where $d(u)$ is the degree of node $u$ . In this example $k = 4 \times 1/4 + 3 \times 1/3 + 2 \times 1/2 = 3$ . + +'must-link' and 'cannot-link' constraints within the $k$ -means [4]. Constraints can be selected using a farthest-first scheme [4], or by running $k$ -means with a large $k$ and picking constraints to merge the small clusters into larger ones [14]. We also develop a baseline based on the farthest-first traversal (FFT) scheme that is directly aimed at estimating the number of clusters. While these approaches improve over the baseline $k$ -means algorithm they do not provide statistical guarantees on the estimate. Our proposed sampling-based approach results in a consistent estimator of the cluster count and produces accurate confidence intervals ( $\S 5$ ). The amount of human effort required depends both on the quality of the pairwise similarity as well as the level of precision needed for estimation. + +Related Problems Apart from population surveys, estimating the number of clusters is often the primary goal for many tasks. Life-long learning systems must discover and learn novel categories during long-term deployment. In generalized category discovery (GCD) [12, 54], the goal is to cluster images given the labels for a subset of images in the presence of novel categories. This problem is more challenging than traditional semi-supervised learning due to the open-world setting. However, we find that the performance of existing GCD approaches is limited by the accuracy of estimating the number of categories in a dataset. Often, existing approaches make the unrealistic assumption that this quantity is known. We show that our approach for estimating the number of clusters has a higher impact on improving GCD than using active clustering algorithms. Our work is also related to approaches that improve statistical estimation by combining human effort and model predictions, such as ISCount [37], DISCount [43], and Prediction-Powered Inference [3]. For example, both ISCount and DISCount use importance sampling to estimate the population mean, and our work extends this idea to a pairwise setting. + +# 3 Method + +Assume that we have a collection of images $\mathcal{D} = \{x_i\}_{i=1}^n$ where each image $x_i$ belongs to a cluster $y_i \in \mathcal{V}$ . Our goal is to calculate the total number of clusters $K = |\mathcal{V}|$ in $\mathcal{D}$ . We assume labels $y_i \in \mathcal{V}$ are unknown but we have access to an image embedding $\Phi(\cdot)$ which can be used to compute an approximate pairwise similarity $\hat{s}(x,z) = f(\Phi(x), \Phi(z))$ between images $x$ and $z$ for some function $f$ (such as the dot product). The true similarity is $s(x,z) = 1$ if images $x$ and $z$ belong to the same cluster and is $s(x,z) = 0$ otherwise. We assume this can be obtained by using human feedback in the form of "same" or "not" for the pair of images. Our goal is to estimate $K$ as accurately as possible using a small amount of human feedback given the approximate similarity $\hat{s}(x,z)$ . + +![](images/94ecd6b0a6f59b8986d1921887d90edb840a12f21e024f6c5edbb5c514d07308.jpg) +$G = (V,E)\rightarrow$ Image collection +(a) Unlabeled dataset $G$ (unknown edges $e_{uv}$ ) + +![](images/c86780c184d8b074df21aff678bfaa113d49c5593e2c47b0881bfe11b55ef791.jpg) +$CC(G)\rightarrow \#$ connected components +(b) Get approximate similarity $\hat{\delta} (u,v)$ from image encoder $\phi (\cdot)$ + +![](images/8191eea328a21896f65a63166d59dff78a431ed894b14b038a77e4816b09373a.jpg) +Sampling step 1 Sample from $Q(u)\propto \frac{1}{1 + d(u)}$ +c) Sample with higher prob. vertices with low degree $d(w)$ + +![](images/a5e9b34ab05be4140d4a7f7ba6c65531c45c69ba1668030ef00ea11b801183b9.jpg) +Sampling step 2 Sample from $q_{u_i}(v)\propto \delta (u,v)$ +(d) Sample with higher prob. neighbors with high $S(u,v)$ + +![](images/be82d9c5f7b1ca50b7b134f5fc079292a648fa2c4b30d56957adb2a77e96f90d.jpg) +Screen sampled pair and get estimate +(e) Count estimate with confidence intervals +Fig. 3: Proposed Framework for Counting Clusters in a Dataset. (a) We represent dataset as a graph $G$ and estimate the number of connected components for an (unknown) pairwise similarity. (b) First, we compute an approximate similarity between images using an embedding. (c) We sample vertices $u_{i}$ from the distribution $Q(u)$ which biases the samples towards vertices with low (estimated) degrees. (d) We then sample nodes of $v_{i,j}$ from $q_{u_i}(v)$ biased towards neighbors. (e) Human feedback on the sampled pairs is used to estimate the number of clusters with confidence intervals. + +Lemma 1. Consider a graph $G = (V, E)$ with vertices $u, v \in V = \{1, \dots, n\}$ corresponding to images $x_u$ , with an edge $e_{uv} \in E$ between $u$ and $v$ if the images $x_u$ and $x_v$ belong to the same cluster. Let $d(u) = |\{e_{uv} \in E\}|$ be the degree of vertex $u$ . Then the number of clusters $K$ in the dataset $\mathcal{D}$ is equal to the number of connected components in $G$ , and can be computed as: + +$$ +K = C C (G) = \sum_ {u = 1} ^ {n} \frac {1}{1 + d (u)}. \tag {1} +$$ + +Proof (Proof of Lemma 1). It is easy to see that the $G$ is a collection of cliques, with the clique containing $u$ of size $1 + d(u)$ . The total contribution of the vertices in this clique is $(1 + d(u)) \times (1 / (1 + d(u))) = 1$ , i.e., each clique contributes a total of 1 to Eq. 1, adding up to the total number of cliques or connected components in $G$ . See Fig. 2 for an example. + +# 3.1 Estimation via Nested Sampling + +The above lemma provides a way to estimate the number of connected components $\mathrm{CC}(G)$ by sampling. + +$$ +\operatorname {C C} (G) = \sum_ {u = 1} ^ {n} \frac {1}{1 + d (u)} = n \mathbb {E} _ {u \sim \operatorname {U n i f} (1, n)} \left[ \frac {1}{1 + d (u)} \right]. \tag {2} +$$ + +Thus, one approach to estimate the number of connected components is to sample $N$ vertices and estimate their degrees by querying a human if an edge exists between the vertex and all other $n - 1$ vertices in the graph. This would require $N \times (n - 1)$ queries, saving over $n \times (n - 1)/2$ queries for exact estimation. However, one can estimate the degree of a vertex by sampling as well. This suggests a two-step Monte Carlo (MC) approach for estimation. First, we sample $N$ vertices $u_{1}, \ldots, u_{N}$ . For each sampled vertex $u_{i}$ , we then sample $M$ nodes $v_{i,1}, \ldots, v_{i,M}$ uniformly at random, query a human to obtain $s(u_{i}, v_{i,j})$ for each potential neighbor, and estimate the degree of the vertex $u_{i}$ as: + +$$ +\hat {d} \left(u _ {i}\right) = \frac {n - 1}{M} \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {M} s \left(u _ {i}, v _ {i, j}\right). \tag {3} +$$ + +From this, we can estimate the number of connected components as: + +$$ +\widehat {\mathrm {C C}} _ {\mathrm {M C}} (G) = \frac {n}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \frac {1}{1 + \hat {d} \left(u _ {i}\right)}. \tag {4} +$$ + +This nested Monte Carlo estimate is asymptotically unbiased for the expected number of connected components, i.e., it converges to the true mean under mild assumptions. One can also construct a sample estimate of the variance and confidence intervals around the mean (we will derive the expressions for a general sampling distribution in the next section). The number of queries required to construct the estimate scales as $N \times M$ , which is more efficient than the earlier approach of $N \times n$ . However, the variance of the estimator can be high for graphs where the degrees of the vertices vary significantly. + +Remark 1. Our problem is related to work on estimating the number of connected components in a graph in sub-linear time. The randomized algorithm proposed in [6, 11] use a similar sampling argument but their cost model is different. They assume the edges in the graph are provided as an adjacency list and run breadth-first-search starting from each node for a number of steps till the size of the connected components exceeds a threshold—a threshold of $1/\epsilon$ gives an $n\epsilon$ additive approximation to CC. In our setting the true edges are unknown—we instead have a noisy pairwise similarity—and have to pay a cost to reveal an edge, and hence the same approach is not applicable. + +# 3.2 Estimation via Nested Importance Sampling + +Importance sampling [40] uses a proposal distribution $q$ and replaces the expectation of a quantity $f(x)$ under $p$ as: + +$$ +\mathbb {E} _ {p} [ f (x) ] = \mathbb {E} _ {q} \left[ \frac {p (x)}{q (x)} f (x) \right]. \tag {5} +$$ + +The equality holds for any proposal distribution $q$ that satisfies $p(x)f(x) > 0 \Rightarrow q(x) > 0$ . Moreover, one can show that the optimal proposal distribution $q(x) \propto p(x)f(x)$ for which the estimator has zero variance. + +We are interested in computing various expectations under a uniform distribution $p$ , and one can show that the optimal proposal distribution to sample nodes for estimating $\mathrm{CC}(G)$ in Eq. 1 is $Q(u) \propto 1 / (1 + d(u))$ , while that to sample edges for estimating the degree $\hat{d}(u)$ in Eq. 3 is $q_u(v) \propto s(u, v)$ . + +However, sampling from these distributions requires knowledge of the true $s(u,v)$ which is unknown. But we can construct proposals using the approximate pairwise similarity $\hat{s}(u,v) \in [0,1]$ . This can be computed using the similarity between a pair of images estimated from their feature embeddings. Then, we can set $Q(u) \propto 1 / (1 + \sum_{v \neq u} \hat{s}(u,v))$ as the proposal distribution to sample a set of vertices $I$ of size $N$ . For each sampled vertex $u_i$ , we sample a set of $M$ + +Algorithm 1 Estimating cluster count $k$ using NIS +1: $N\gets$ Number of sampled vertices +2: $M\gets$ Number of sampled edges per vertex +3: $\hat{s} (u,v)\gets$ Approximate pairwise similarity +4: for i = 1,...,N do +5: Sample $u_{i}\sim Q(u)$ +6: Sample $v_{i,1},\dots,v_{i,M}\sim q_{u_i}(v)$ +7: $\hat{d} (u_i)\leftarrow \frac{1}{M}\sum_{j = 1}^{M}\frac{s(u_i,v_{i,j})}{q_{u_i}(v_{i,j})}\quad /$ Human feedback $\triangleright$ Eq.

The $\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{\mathrm{NIS}}(G)$ obtained using importance sampling is: + +$$ +\widehat {\mathrm {C C}} _ {\mathrm {N I S}} (G) = \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \left(\frac {1}{Q \left(u _ {i}\right)} \times \frac {1}{1 + \hat {d} \left(u _ {i}\right)}\right), u _ {i} \sim Q (u), \tag {6} +$$ + +where, $\hat{d} (u_i)$ is estimated as: + +$$ +\hat {d} \left(u _ {i}\right) = \frac {1}{M} \sum_ {j = 1} ^ {M} \frac {s \left(u _ {i} , v _ {i , j}\right)}{q _ {u _ {i}} \left(v _ {i , j}\right)}, \quad v _ {i, 1}, \dots , v _ {i, M} \sim q _ {u _ {i}} (v). \tag {7} +$$ + +The proposal $Q(u)$ biases the distribution towards isolated vertices, i.e., ones that have low degrees, as they contribute the most toward the number of clusters. The second biases the distribution towards sampling nodes that are likely to be connected, i.e., to have high $\hat{s}(u,v)$ . Note the only place human feedback is required is in computing $\hat{d}(u)$ in Eq. 7 consisting of $M$ queries. Hence the overall query complexity of the approach is $N \times M$ , similar to the simple Monte Carlo estimator. But if the similarity function $\hat{s}(u,v)$ is a good approximation to the true similarity then we expect the estimator to have a lower variance. Algorithm 1 and Fig. 3 describe the overall scheme. + +# 3.3 Variance and Confidence Intervals + +Theorem 1. Assume $Q(u) > 0$ for all $u$ and $q_{u}(v) > 0$ for all $u, v$ . Let $\widehat{CC}_{N,M}$ denote the estimator using $N$ sampled vertices and $M$ sampled edges per vertex. For any $M > 0$ , the estimator $\widehat{CC}_{N,M}$ is asymptotically normal, i.e., + +$$ +\sqrt {N} \left(\widehat {C C} _ {N, M} - \mu_ {M}\right) \stackrel {D} {\rightarrow} \mathcal {N} \left(0, \sigma_ {1, M} ^ {2}\right) a s N \rightarrow \infty , \tag {8} +$$ + +where $\mu_{M} = \mathbb{E}[\widehat{CC}_{N,M}] = \mathbb{E}[\widehat{CC}_{1,M}]$ and $\sigma_{1,M}^{2} = \mathrm{Var}(\widehat{CC}_{1,M})$ . Furthermore, the bias $|\mu_{M} - CC|$ is $O(1 / M)$ . Together these facts imply that the estimator is consistent as both $N$ and $M$ go to infinity, i.e., $\lim_{N\to \infty ,M\to \infty}\widehat{CC}_{N,M} = CC$ . + +Asymptotic normality justifies the construction of confidence intervals as follows: let $\hat{\sigma}_{1,M}^2$ be the sample variance of $\frac{1}{Q(u_i)} \times \frac{1}{1 + \hat{d}(u_i)}$ and use the $95\%$ confidence interval $\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{N,M} \pm z_{0.025} \cdot \hat{\sigma}_{1,M} / \sqrt{N}$ . + +Proof (Proof of Theorem 1). The estimator $\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{N,M}$ is the sample average of $N$ identically distributed copies of + +$$ +\widehat {\mathrm {C C}} _ {1, M} = \frac {1}{Q \left(u _ {1}\right)} \times \frac {1}{1 + \hat {d} \left(u _ {1}\right)}. \tag {9} +$$ + +Therefore $\mathbb{E}[\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{N,M}] = \mathbb{E}[\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{1,M}]$ and the asymptotic normality result holds by the central limit theorem as long as $\mu_M$ and $\sigma_{1,M}^2$ are finite. The quantity $\frac{1}{Q(u_1)}\times \frac{1}{1 + \hat{d}(u_1)}$ is bounded above by our assumption that $Q(u) > 0$ and $q_{u}(v) > 0$ . Together with the fact that the support of the joint sample space $(u_{1},v_{1,1},\ldots ,v_{1,M})$ is finite, implies $\mu_M$ and $\sigma_{1,M}^2$ are finite. It remains to show that the bias is $O(1 / M)$ . This can be proved by the delta method, but also follows from a result of [45], which applies to our setting to assert that the mean-squared error of $\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{N,M}$ is $O(\frac{1}{N} +\frac{1}{M^2})$ . Because mean-squared error equals variance plus squared bias, this necessitates that the bias, which only depends on $M$ , is $O(\frac{1}{M})$ . + +Remark 2. [45] describe the optimal allocation of samples when $T = NM \to \infty$ and found that it occurs when $N$ grows proportionally to $M^2$ in our setting. However, in applications with finite $T$ , the lowest error occurred for $N \propto T^\alpha$ with $\alpha$ between 0.5 and 0.6, which suggests selecting $N$ to be approximately proportional to $M$ may be better in practice (See § 5-Parameters for NIS). + +# 4 Experiments + +This section describes the experimental setup, datasets, models used for computing image similarity, baselines, and the evaluation metrics. + +Datasets We evaluate our approach on seven animal re-identification datasets, where the goal is to estimate the number of individuals (see Tab. 1) — Chimpanzee Faces in the Wild (CTai and CZoo) [20] CTai contains 5,078 images of 72 individuals living in the Tai National Park in Côte d'Ivoire, while CZoo consists of 2,109 recordings of 24 chimpanzees. IPanda50 [58] contains 6,874 images of 50 giant panda individuals, OpenCows2020 [2] comprises 4,736 images of 46 Holstein-Friesian cattle individuals, MacaqueFaces [60] includes 6,280 face images of 34 rhesus macaque individuals, WhaleSharkID [24] features 7693 images with 543 individual whale shark identifications, and GiraffeZebraID [41] with 6925 images of 2056 zebra and giraffe individuals in Kenya. + +Image Encoding and Similarity We use image embeddings from the MegaDescriptor [55], a Swin-transformer model optimized with ArcFace loss, that beats CLIP [44], DINOv2 [10], and ImageNet-1k [16] pre-trained image encoders on animal Re-ID tasks. Specifically, we consider MegaDescriptor-L-384 for our experiments and present ablation tests with its smaller version MegaDescriptor-B-224 in § 5.

The number of images $|\mathcal{D}|$ and individuals $|\mathcal{Y}|$ per dataset along with the estimated population $k$ for a given amount of human effort (sampled pairs). Estimates using connected components (CoCo), Robust Continuous Clustering [48] (RCC), $k$ -means ( $km$ ), and mean-shift (not shown, but see Fig. 4) exhibit high error rates. $k$ -means improves with the addition of human feedback ( $pckm$ ) but the error rates remain high. Farthest-first traversal (FFT) outperforms these methods. The proposed Nested-IS (NIS) surpasses these baselines and yields estimates and confidence intervals that often contain the true value. Error rates (\%) on each dataset (shown for NMC and NIS) are also lower compared to the baseline and Nested Monte Carlo (NMC). Our method demonstrates significant improvement on the challenging WhaleSharkID [24] and GirrafeZebraID [41]. + +

+ +Clustering Baselines We employ four baselines for estimating the number of clusters. The first is mean-shift clustering [13]. We set the bandwidth parameter as the average distance between samples and their nearest neighbor, and estimate the number of clusters as the number of modes. The second method is $k$ -means [22]. To calculate the optimal $k$ , we calculate the within-cluster sum of squares $\mathcal{J}_{\mathrm{km}} = \sum_{i \in G} ||c_i - u_i||_2^2$ , where $c_i$ is the cluster center corresponding to $u_i$ . The elbow is identified as the value of $k$ where the slope becomes approximately constant. Third, we use connected components (CoCo) after thresholding the similarity values $\hat{s}(u, v)$ of our graph $G$ . To find the optimal threshold, we use the same procedure as the $k$ -means elbow; that is, we calculate $\mathcal{J}_{\mathrm{km}}$ for different thresholds and return the threshold at the elbow. Lastly, we use robust continuous clustering (RCC) to extract the number of clusters after optimizing the algorithm's objective using the default hyperparameters in [48]. + +Active Clustering We use active variants of the above approaches. First, we use pairwise constrained $k$ -means (pck-means [4]). For a given $k$ , the objective is: + +$$ +\mathcal {J} _ {\mathrm {p c k m}} = \sum_ {i \in G} | | c _ {i} - u _ {i} | | _ {2} ^ {2} + \sum_ {(i, j) \in \mathcal {M}} \alpha \mathbb {1} [ l _ {i} \neq l _ {j} ] + \sum_ {(i, j) \in \mathcal {C}} \beta \mathbb {1} [ l _ {i} = l _ {j} ], +$$ + +where $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{C}$ are the sets of must-link and cannot-link constraints, respectively, and $l_{i}$ denotes the cluster index for $i$ . Scalars $\alpha, \beta > 0$ trade off the $k$ -means objective with the cost of violating constraints. We select empirically $\alpha = \beta = 1$ . Given a set of constraints, we can pick the optimal $k$ using the elbow heuristic on the $\mathcal{I}_{\mathrm{pckm}}$ objective. We pick samples based on a farthest-first traversal scheme described below. The second method is constrained mean shift [46] (Constrained-MS) that introduces a density-based integration of the + +![](images/e8294972fbb27e61718644716fa9686741a036bdf76b0c30880f09e9ba668493.jpg) +Fig. 4: Performance of Estimating $k$ per Human Effort on Animal Re-ID Datasets. We use the cosine similarity built from the MegaDescriptor-L-384 image embeddings—See § 4. The human effort is measured as the fraction of the sampled pairs and total pairs $|E|$ in the dataset $G$ . Our method estimates the true count with less human effort compared to baselines. Dashed lines indicate the mean estimates and shaded regions indicate the mean $95\%$ confidence interval across 100 trials. + +constraints. Lastly, instead of incorporating constraints within $k$ -means one can directly estimate the number of clusters using a farthest-first traversal (FFT) of points and exhaustive comparison with existing individuals. The approach is as follows: 1) Initialize the list of sampled images $S$ as empty and list of discovered individuals as $I$ as empty, 2) Selecting an unsampled point that is farthest from $S$ , i.e., $u = \operatorname{argmax}_u \min_{v \in S} d(u, v)$ , and add it to the sampled set $S$ . 3) Compare $u$ to all the previously discovered individuals in $I$ . If it matches an individual add it to the corresponding list, else start a new list with $u$ and add it to $I$ . FFT rapidly explore the dataset to find at least one member for each cluster. At each iteration it pays a cost equal to the number of discovered individuals. + +Evaluation Metric and Human Effort Error is measured as $|\mathrm{CC} - \widehat{\mathrm{CC}}| / \mathrm{CC}$ , the fractional absolute difference between the estimated $\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}$ and the true number of clusters CC. Human effort is measured as the number of pairwise queries used for estimation. To account for variable dataset sizes, we report the number of sampled pairs normalized by the total number of edges $|E|$ in $G$ . + +# 5 Results + +We compare our method to the baselines described in § 4 that include connected components (CoCo), pairwise constrained $k$ -means (pck-means), constrained mean shift (Constrained-MS), our farthest-first traversal baseline (FFT), and nested Monte Carlo sampling (Nested-MC) from Eq. (4). + +![](images/a1b402552fae02be0ac2aeaafa00b85e76262adf256392dd3a945b9291815857.jpg) +Fig. 5: WhaleSharkID Dataset Statistics.

(Left) Our method produces a CI coverage close to $95\%$ (when using $z_{0.025} = 1.96$ for a $95\%$ confidence interval- $\S$ 3.3) with less than $0.04\%$ of sampled pairs. (Right) Even though our estimator has a negative bias for a low number of sampled pairs, it rapidly reaches zero compared to Nested-MC. + +Baselines Perform Poorly Techniques like $k$ -means and CoCo perform poorly, with about $80\%$ and $69\%$ error on average, respectively, despite using state-of-the-art image embeddings to compute similarity (see Fig. 4 and Tab. 1). For instance, $k$ -means estimates 70 clusters for WhaleSharkID instead of 543, 70 clusters instead of 34 for OpenCows2020, and 50 clusters instead of 24 for CZoo. Estimates using CoCo are slightly better on average but tend to be an underestimate. One reason is that choosing hyperparameters for clustering is particularly challenging. For instance, the WCSS curve as a function of $k$ looks rather smooth, and there is no clear "elbow." Another reason is that the underlying similarity is imperfect. Improving this through deep metric learning approaches would require significant resources and expertise to set various parameters and may not pan out when supervision is limited [38]. + +Nested-IS outperforms Nested-MC Both Nested-MC and Nested-IS improve over the baselines as more human feedback is collected. As described in § 3.1, Nested-MC samples edges uniformly at random, while Nested-IS is driven by the pairwise similarity and leads to an error reduction at a much faster rate as seen in Fig. 4. Specifically, we get a relative error reduction of $82\%$ over Nested-MC with the same human effort. + +Nested-IS outperforms Active Clustering We compare our method to pairwise constrained $k$ -means (pck-means-AL), constrained mean shift (Constrained-MS), + +![](images/2bf38d89d3110abfc6461524a7303b60f06bd06f2c0a47542e455a3ed37e915c.jpg) + +![](images/9a2e1fa02ae6af42733b353a36367e655f61527939e8172c72e5aa4064d5e10d.jpg) +Fig.7: Ablation Experiments on MacaqueFaces (Left) Our proposed method (Nested-IS) with different sampling ratios $r = M / N$ .

Fig. 4 shows that Nested-IS handily outperforms active clustering. In WhaleSharkID, despite performing best, our method still requires querying relatively many pairs to get accurate estimates, which can be explained by the difficulty of the task. In Fig. 5-left-center we show the histogram of individuals with a clear long-tailed distribution and the histogram of vertex degrees where we can see that in WhaleSharkID most individuals have less than 5 images. The performance of the MegaDescriptor is also the lowest (around $62\%$ ) on the Re-ID task on this dataset. However, the performance savings over alternative approaches is significant. + +Confidence Intervals are Calibrated In addition to lower error rates, a key advantage of our approach is that it also provides confidence intervals (CIs) (See Fig. 4). To estimate the quality of the CI estimation we calculate the empirical coverage of the CI over 100 runs (i.e., the percentage of times the estimated CIs contains the true count). Our method produces close to $95\%$ coverage using $z_{0.025} = 1.96$ for a $95\%$ CI, as described in § 3.3, when around $0.02\%$ of pairs are sampled across datasets, as shown in Fig. 6-left. + +Estimation Bias is Low We calculate the empirical bias, denoted as $\mathrm{BIAS} = \mathbb{E}[\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{\mathrm{NIS}}(G)] - \mathrm{CC}(G)$ where $\mathbb{E}[\widehat{\mathrm{CC}}_{\mathrm{NIS}}(G)]$ is the mean count estimate over 100 runs. Fig. 6-right shows that the bias is negative initially, but it rapidly drops to 0. The initial negative bias might explain the lower coverage of the CIs. + +Parameters for Nested-IS There is a trade-off between the number of sampled vertices $N$ and sampled neighbors per vertex $M$ . Increasing $N$ will reduce the variance of the estimation of the number of clusters, and increasing $M$ will reduce the variance of each vertex degree estimate. In Fig. 7-left we show that increasing the ratio between the number of sampled neighbors per vertex $M$ relative to the number of sampled vertices $N$ (i.e., $r = M / N$ ) produces more accurate estimations with less human effort. For instance, using $r = 7$ achieves close-to-zero error with 1/5 of the sampled pairs compared to using $r = 0.5$ . + +![](images/dbe4a5a2faa60735e8ef4aeed6daf7351019a2e97c697737d6c6f83c068017c3.jpg) +Fig. 8: Measuring Clustering Accuracy. Pairwise constraints (pck-means+AL) improves the clustering accuracy over $k$ -means+elbow, but the clustering accuracy with our estimated $k$ is even better (pck-means+NIS). We plot results with five independent runs for our proposed approach (blue stars). The red shaded line indicates the true number of clusters in the dataset. + +Ablation with other MegaDescriptors We test the performance of all baselines using a smaller less-performing version of the MegaDescriptor (MegaDescriptor-B-224). In Fig. 7-center-right we show that our method performs similarly with both MegaDescriptor versions. + +How Much do we Know about the Clustering? Sometimes we also wish to recover the clustering in a dataset, such as in generalized category discovery [54]. Should human effort be used to estimate the clustering directly using active clustering, or to estimate $k$ for $k$ -means using our approach? To answer this we conduct the following experiment. First, we can measure the accuracy of a clustering as: + +$$ +\operatorname {A c c} = \max _ {p \in \mathcal {P} (\mathcal {Y})} \frac {1}{N} \sum_ {i = 1} ^ {N} \mathbb {1} \left[ y _ {i} = p \left(\hat {y} _ {i}\right) \right], \tag {11} +$$ + +where $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{Y})$ is the set of all permutations of the class labels. We compare the accuracy of clustering using $k$ -means with estimated $k$ using the elbow method, using pck-means, and using $k$ -means with $k$ estimated using Nested-IS for tthe same amount of human effort as pck-means. Fig. 8 shows the results. Surprisingly, we find that accurately estimating $k$ has a larger impact on the quality of clustering than active clustering, which suggests that human effort is better spent to estimate $k$ initially. In the Supplementary Material we describe experiments on GCD on fine-grained classification datasets and show a similar trend. + +# 6 Discussion and Conclusion + +We propose a human-in-the-loop approach to estimate population size when deploying imperfect Re-ID systems. By carefully selecting a small fraction of pairs to label (often less than $0.002\%$ of all edges), our approach produces unbiased estimates of the population size. A key advantage of our method is that it generates confidence intervals which can be used for guiding human effort. This approach can be implemented on top of any Re-ID system, as it requires only a pairwise similarity between images, making it practical for low-resource settings. Our approach adds to the growing literature on statistical estimation techniques [3, 37, 43] that combine model predictions and ground-truth labels to improve the precision of count estimates. However, we tackle the novel problem of estimating cluster counts, which involves pairwise comparisons. + +# Acknowledgments + +This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grants #1749854, #1749833, and #2329927.

Computer vision-based re-identification (Re-ID) systems are increasingly being deployed for estimating population size in large image collections. However, the estimated size can be significantly inaccurate when the task is challenging or when deployed on data from new distributions. We propose a human-in-the-loop approach for estimating population size driven by a pairwise similarity derived from an off-the-shelf Re-ID system. Our approach, based on nested importance sampling, selects pairs of images for human vetting driven by the pairwise similarity, and produces asymptotically unbiased population size estimates with associated confidence intervals. We perform experiments on various animal Re-ID datasets and demonstrate that our method outperforms strong baselines and active clustering approaches.

These techniques range from SIFT [35] and Superpoint-based [18] matching approaches (e.g., WildID [7] and HotSpotter [15]) that work relatively well for species with characteristic patterns on their skin or coats (e.g., Zebras and Jaguars), to complex pipelines designed to identify visual characteristics specific to particular species (e.g., whisker patterns of polar bears [1]).

Life-long learning systems must discover and learn novel categories during long-term deployment. In generalized category discovery (GCD) [12, 54], the goal is to cluster images given the labels for a subset of images in the presence of novel categories. This problem is more challenging than traditional semi-supervised learning due to the open-world setting. However, we find that the performance of existing GCD approaches is limited by the accuracy of estimating the number of categories in a dataset. Often, existing approaches make the unrealistic assumption that this quantity is known. We show that our approach for estimating the number of clusters has a higher impact on improving GCD than using active clustering algorithms. Our work is also related to approaches that improve statistical estimation by combining human effort and model predictions, such as ISCount [37], DISCount [43], and Prediction-Powered Inference [3]. For example, both ISCount and DISCount use importance sampling to estimate the population mean, and our work extends this idea to a pairwise setting." + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 5 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 526, + 202, + 539 + ], + "type": "title", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 526, + 202, + 539 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 132, + 526, + 202, + 539 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "3 Method" + } + ] + } + ], + "index": 6 + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "text", + "angle": 0, + "lines": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "spans": [ + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": "Assume that we have a collection of images " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "\\mathcal{D} = \\{x_i\\}_{i=1}^n" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " where each image " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "x_i" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " belongs to a cluster " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "y_i \\in \\mathcal{V}" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 548, + 482, + 669 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": ".

They assume the edges in the graph are provided as an adjacency list and run breadth-first-search starting from each node for a number of steps till the size of the connected components exceeds a threshold—a threshold of " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 308, + 480, + 416 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "1/\\epsilon" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 308, + 480, + 416 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " gives an " + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 308, + 480, + 416 + ], + "type": "inline_equation", + "content": "n\\epsilon" + }, + { + "bbox": [ + 130, + 308, + 480, + 416 + ], + "type": "text", + "content": " additive approximation to CC.
