DynaPose4D: High-Quality 4D Dynamic Content Generation via Pose Alignment Loss
Jing Yang, Yufeng Yang
TL;DR
DynaPose4D tackles the challenge of generating coherent 4D dynamic content from a single image by fusing 4D Gaussian Splatting with Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE). The method builds a static 3D model via 3D Gaussian Splatting, extracts pose keypoints with CAPE, and drives temporal deformation using Pose Alignment Loss, which combines Keypoint Match Loss $L_{KML}$ and Spatio-temporal Consistency Loss $L_{SCL}$ to enforce alignment with predicted keypoints and smooth temporal evolution. A 4D deformation framework uses $S'_ au = \phi(S, \tau)$ and a reference-driven loss $L_{Ref}$ initialized via Score Distillation Sampling, producing temporally coherent 4D content guided by one-shot pose cues. On Consistent4D and Animate124, DynaPose4D outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in PSNR, SSIM, and LPIPS, with ablation showing pose supervision is essential for maintaining motion fidelity and spatial consistency, enabling robust applications in animation and AR/VR content creation.
Abstract
Recent advancements in 2D and 3D generative models have expanded the capabilities of computer vision. However, generating high-quality 4D dynamic content from a single static image remains a significant challenge. Traditional methods have limitations in modeling temporal dependencies and accurately capturing dynamic geometry changes, especially when considering variations in camera perspective. To address this issue, we propose DynaPose4D, an innovative solution that integrates 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS) techniques with Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation (CAPE) technology. This framework uses 3D Gaussian Splatting to construct a 3D model from single images, then predicts multi-view pose keypoints based on one-shot support from a chosen view, leveraging supervisory signals to enhance motion consistency. Experimental results show that DynaPose4D achieves excellent coherence, consistency, and fluidity in dynamic motion generation. These findings not only validate the efficacy of the DynaPose4D framework but also indicate its potential applications in the domains of computer vision and animation production.
