CVPR 2023

POEM is designed for "reconstructing hand geometry from multi-view". It combines the structure-aware MANO mesh with the unstructured point cloud in the intersected cameras' frustum space. To infer accurate 3D hand mesh from multi-view images, POEM introduce the cross point set attention. It achieves the state-of-the-art performance on three multi-view Hand-Object Datasets: HO3D, DexYCB, OakInk.

:runner: Training and Evaluation

Available models

set ${MODEL} as one in [POEM, MVP, PEMeshTR, FTLMeshTR]
set ${DATASET} as one in [DexYCBMV, HO3Dv3MV, OakInkMV]

Download the pretrained checkpoints at :link: ckpt and move the contents to ./checkpoint.

Command line arguments

-g, --gpu_id, visible GPUs for training, e.g. -g 0,1,2,3. evaluation only supports single GPU.
-w, --workers, num_workers in reading data, e.g. -w 4, recommend set -w equals to -g on HO3Dv3MV.
-p, --dist_master_port, port for distributed training, e.g. -p 60011, set different -p for different training processes.
-b, --batch_size, e.g. -b 32, default is specified in config file, but will be overwritten if -b is provided.
--cfg, config file for this experiment, e.g. --cfg config/release/${MODEL}_${DATASET}.yaml.
--exp_id specify the name of experiment, e.g. --exp_id ${EXP_ID}. When --exp_id is provided, the code requires that no uncommitted change is remained in the git repo. Otherwise, it defaults to 'default' for training and 'eval_{cfg}' for evaluation. All results will be saved in exp/${EXP_ID}*{timestamp}.
--reload, specify the path to the checkpoint (.pth.tar) to be loaded.

Evaluation

Specify the ${PATH_TO_CKPT} to ./checkpoint/${MODEL}_${DATASET}/checkpoint/{xxx}.pth.tar. Then, run:

# use "--eval_extra" for extra evaluation.
#   "auc"            compute AUC of the predicted mesh.
#   "draw"           draw the predicted mesh of each batch.

$ python scripts/eval.py --cfg config/release/${MODEL}_${DATASET}.yaml -g 0 -b 8 --reload ${PATH_TO_CKPT}

The evaluation results will be saved at exp/${EXP_ID}_{timestamp}/evaluations.

Training

$ python scripts/train_ddp.py --cfg config/release/${MODEL}_${DATASET}.yaml -g 0,1,2,3 -w 16

Tensorboard

$ cd exp/${EXP_ID}_{timestamp}/runs/
$ tensorboard --logdir .

Checkpoint

All the training checkpoints are saved at exp/${EXP_ID}_{timestamp}/checkpoints/
