Generative Zoo

Tomasz Niewiadomski, Anastasios Yiannakidis, Hanz Cuevas-Velasquez +4

The model-based estimation of 3D animal pose and shape from images enables computational modeling of animal behavior. Training models for this purpose requires large amounts of lab…

Reconstructing Animals and the Wild

Peter Kulits, Michael J. Black, Silvia Zuffi

The idea of 3D reconstruction as scene understanding is foundational in computer vision. Reconstructing 3D scenes from 2D visual observations requires strong priors to disambiguate…

AWOL: Analysis WithOut synthesis using Language

Silvia Zuffi, Michael J. Black

Many classical parametric 3D shape models exist, but creating novel shapes with such models requires expert knowledge of their parameters. For example, imagine creating a specific…

OSSO: Obtaining Skeletal Shape from Outside

Marilyn Keller, Silvia Zuffi, Michael J. Black +1

We address the problem of inferring the anatomic skeleton of a person, in an arbitrary pose, from the 3D surface of the body; i.e. we predict the inside (bones) from the outside (s…

BARC: Learning to Regress 3D Dog Shape from Images by Exploiting Breed Information

Nadine Rueegg, Silvia Zuffi, Konrad Schindler +1

Our goal is to recover the 3D shape and pose of dogs from a single image. This is a challenging task because dogs exhibit a wide range of shapes and appearances, and are highly art…

Fish sounds: towards the evaluation of marine acoustic biodiversity through data-driven audio source separation

Michele Mancusi, Nicola Zonca, Emanuele Rodolà +1

The marine ecosystem is changing at an alarming rate, exhibiting biodiversity loss and the migration of tropical species to temperate basins. Monitoring the underwater environments…

Seeing biodiversity: perspectives in machine learning for wildlife conservation

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Kellenberger, Sara Beery +15

Data acquisition in animal ecology is rapidly accelerating due to inexpensive and accessible sensors such as smartphones, drones, satellites, audio recorders and bio-logging device…

hSMAL: Detailed Horse Shape and Pose Reconstruction for Motion Pattern Recognition

Ci Li, Nima Ghorbani, Sofia Broomé +5

In this paper we present our preliminary work on model-based behavioral analysis of horse motion. Our approach is based on the SMAL model, a 3D articulated statistical model of ani…

Three-D Safari: Learning to Estimate Zebra Pose, Shape, and Texture from Images "In the Wild"

Silvia Zuffi, Angjoo Kanazawa, Tanya Berger-Wolf +1

We present the first method to perform automatic 3D pose, shape and texture capture of animals from images acquired in-the-wild. In particular, we focus on the problem of capturing…

3D Menagerie: Modeling the 3D shape and pose of animals

Silvia Zuffi, Angjoo Kanazawa, David Jacobs +1

There has been significant work on learning realistic, articulated, 3D models of the human body. In contrast, there are few such models of animals, despite many applications. The m…
