What is the basis for your control point selection?

          For your data, you need to manually select the control points to calculate anthropometric measurements and calculate your own PCA representation.

Hello,What is the basis for your control point selection?

Hi @chengbilian. We had a bit of a discussion on how to define and extract the CP and how to extract the measurements from the CP. I hope that helps.

Also, in case you are interested, you might take a look at my repo (based on @zengyh1900's repo) and paper. Thanks.

In summary, in the repo you can find the code to generate the 3D avatar from two full-body images (front and side) + subject height + gender.

0. The silhouettes are extracted from the images.
1. Extractor: a NN that extracts 8 measurements from the Silhouettes+Height+Gender
2. Imputer: The "missing" measurements are imputed to complete a set of 21 measurements.
3. Reshaper: Minor edits were implemented to @zengyh1900's code and it was trained by using a different set of 21 measurements. This is used to generate the 3D avatar.
