FG-Portrait: 3D Flow Guided Editable Portrait Animation
Yating Xu, Yunqi Miao, Evangelos Ververas +2
Motion transfer from the driving to the source portrait remains a key challenge in the portrait animation. Current diffusion-based approaches condition only on the driving motion,…
MaDiS: Taming Masked Diffusion Language Models for Sign Language Generation
Ronglai Zuo, Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Qi Sun +3
Sign language generation (SLG) aims to translate written texts into expressive sign motions, bridging communication barriers for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing communities. Recent st…
ZeroGS: Training 3D Gaussian Splatting from Unposed Images
Yu Chen, Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Evangelos Ververas +3
Neural radiance fields (NeRF) and 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) are popular techniques to reconstruct and render photo-realistic images. However, the pre-requisite of running Struct…
Signs as Tokens: A Retrieval-Enhanced Multilingual Sign Language Generator
Ronglai Zuo, Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Evangelos Ververas +2
Sign language is a visual language that encompasses all linguistic features of natural languages and serves as the primary communication method for the deaf and hard-of-hearing com…
SAGS: Structure-Aware 3D Gaussian Splatting
Evangelos Ververas, Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Jifei Song +2
Following the advent of NeRFs, 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS) has paved the way to real-time neural rendering overcoming the computational burden of volumetric methods. Following th…
Neural Sign Actors: A diffusion model for 3D sign language production from text
Vasileios Baltatzis, Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Evangelos Ververas +3
Sign Languages (SL) serve as the primary mode of communication for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities. Deep learning methods for SL recognition and translation have achieved…
3DGazeNet: Generalizing Gaze Estimation with Weak-Supervision from Synthetic Views
Evangelos Ververas, Polydefkis Gkagkos, Jiankang Deng +3
Developing gaze estimation models that generalize well to unseen domains and in-the-wild conditions remains a challenge with no known best solution. This is mostly due to the diffi…
Free-HeadGAN: Neural Talking Head Synthesis with Explicit Gaze Control
Michail Christos Doukas, Evangelos Ververas, Viktoriia Sharmanska +1
We present Free-HeadGAN, a person-generic neural talking head synthesis system. We show that modeling faces with sparse 3D facial landmarks are sufficient for achieving state-of-th…
Learning to Generate Customized Dynamic 3D Facial Expressions
Rolandos Alexandros Potamias, Jiali Zheng, Stylianos Ploumpis +3
Recent advances in deep learning have significantly pushed the state-of-the-art in photorealistic video animation given a single image. In this paper, we extrapolate those advances…
Towards a complete 3D morphable model of the human head
Stylianos Ploumpis, Evangelos Ververas, Eimear O' Sullivan +6
Three-dimensional Morphable Models (3DMMs) are powerful statistical tools for representing the 3D shapes and textures of an object class. Here we present the most complete 3DMM of…
SliderGAN: Synthesizing Expressive Face Images by Sliding 3D Blendshape Parameters
Evangelos Ververas, Stefanos Zafeiriou
Image-to-image (i2i) translation is the dense regression problem of learning how to transform an input image into an output using aligned image pairs. Remarkable progress has been…
Deep Neural Network Augmentation: Generating Faces for Affect Analysis
Dimitrios Kollias, Shiyang Cheng, Evangelos Ververas +2
This paper presents a novel approach for synthesizing facial affect; either in terms of the six basic expressions (i.e., anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness and surprise), or in ter…
Multi-Attribute Robust Component Analysis for Facial UV Maps
Stylianos Moschoglou, Evangelos Ververas, Yannis Panagakis +2
Recently, due to the collection of large scale 3D face models, as well as the advent of deep learning, a significant progress has been made in the field of 3D face alignment "in-th…
