GOF can synthesize high-quality images with high 3D consistency and simultaneously learn compact and smooth object surfaces.

• Python 3.8 is used. Basic requirements are listed in the requirements.txt

pip install -r requirements.txt 

We have put several bash files of BFM, CelebA, and Cats datasets in auto_bash for reference. The adopted hyperparameters in our paper has been listed in the curriculums.py file.

If you want to train with your own dataset, you should set the hyperparameters carefully, especially those related to the camera pose distribution. Just as the settings in the curriculums.py file, you can leverage some camera pose predictors to obtain the rough 'h_stddev' and 'v_stddev', and tune them according to the corresponding performance. Besides, you should add the dataset class in dataset.py and modify the reference bash file to fit your own dataset accordingly.

To calculate FID/IS/KID scores, please run

python eval_metrics.py path/to/generator.pth --real_image_dir path/to/real_images --curriculum CURRICULUM

To calculate weighted variance proposed in the paper, please run

python cal_weighted_var.py path/to/generator.pth --curriculum CURRICULUM

python render_multiview_images.py path/to/generator.pth --curriculum CURRICULUM --seeds_start 0 --seeds_end 100

python render_video.py path/to/generator.pth --curriculum CURRICULUM --seed 0

After running, you will obtain a series of images in a specific folder. And then you can transfer them into a video with ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -r 15 -f image2 -i xxx.png -c:v libx264 -crf 25 -pix_fmt yuv420p xxx.mp4

Similarly, you can render videos interpolating bettween given latent codes/seeds following:

python render_video_interpolation.py path/to/generator.pth --curriculum CURRICULUM --seeds 0 1 2 3

You should first generate a voxel npy file by running:

python extract_shapes.py path/to/generator.pth --seeds 0 1 2 3

and render it to the multi-view mesh images with the render_meshimg.py script.

We provide pretrained models for BFM, CelebA, and Cats. Please refer to this link.

As mentioned in the supplementary, the training of all models starts from an early (about 2K iterations) pretrained model with the correct outward-facing faces. We also provide the early pretrained models for three datasets in this link. If you want to start from the early pretrained models, you can replace the 'load_dir' name in bash files in auto_bash with the corresponding path of these pretrained models. Since the optimizer parameters are not provided here, you may need to comment L138~139 out.
