Apple Workshop on Machine Learning for Health : Web3 and Decentralized AI (DecAI)

We present GHARP (Real-time Gaussian Head Animation from Large-scale Reconstruction Prior), a method that animates 3D human heads in real time from a few input images of a subject and a driving expression signal. We decouple the problem into an identity stage that builds a representation of the subject’s geometry and appearance offline, and an animation stage that predicts expression-dependent residuals on top of it at runtime. This separation…
