Popis: Reconstructing 3D human pose and body shape from monocular images or videos is a fundamental task for comprehending human dynamics. Frame-based methods can be broadly categorized into two fashions: those regressing parametric model parameters (e.g., SMPL) and those exploring alternative representations (e.g., volumetric shapes, 3D coordinates). Non-parametric representations have demonstrated superior performance due to their enhanced flexibility. However, when applied to video data, these non-parametric frame-based methods tend to generate inconsistent and unsmooth results. To this end, we present a novel approach that directly regresses the 3D coordinates of the mesh vertices and body joints with a spatial–temporal Transformer. In our method, we introduce a SpatioTemporal Learning Block (STLB) with Spatial Learning Module (SLM) and Temporal Learning Module (TLM), which leverages spatial and temporal information to model interactions at a finer granularity, specifically at the body token level. Our method outperforms previous state-of-the-art approaches on Human3.6M and 3DPW benchmark datasets.
