Abstract:We present Vanast, a unified framework that generates garment-transferred human animation videos directly from a single human image, garment images, and a pose guidance video. Conventional two-stage pipelines treat image-based virtual try-on and pose-driven animation as separate processes, which often results in identity drift, garment distortion, and front-back inconsistency. Our model addresses these issues by performing the entire process in a single unified step to achieve coherent synthesis. To enable this setting, we construct large-scale triplet supervision. Our data generation pipeline includes generating identity-preserving human images in alternative outfits that differ from garment catalog images, capturing full upper and lower garment triplets to overcome the single-garment-posed video pair limitation, and assembling diverse in-the-wild triplets without requiring garment catalog images. We further introduce a Dual Module architecture for video diffusion transformers to stabilize training, preserve pretrained generative quality, and improve garment accuracy, pose adherence, and identity preservation while supporting zero-shot garment interpolation. Together, these contributions allow Vanast to produce high-fidelity, identity-consistent animation across a wide range of garment types.
Abstract:We present Durian, the first method for generating portrait animation videos with facial attribute transfer from a given reference image to a target portrait in a zero-shot manner. To enable high-fidelity and spatially consistent attribute transfer across frames, we introduce dual reference networks that inject spatial features from both the portrait and attribute images into the denoising process of a diffusion model. We train the model using a self-reconstruction formulation, where two frames are sampled from the same portrait video: one is treated as the attribute reference and the other as the target portrait, and the remaining frames are reconstructed conditioned on these inputs and their corresponding masks. To support the transfer of attributes with varying spatial extent, we propose a mask expansion strategy using keypoint-conditioned image generation for training. In addition, we further augment the attribute and portrait images with spatial and appearance-level transformations to improve robustness to positional misalignment between them. These strategies allow the model to effectively generalize across diverse attributes and in-the-wild reference combinations, despite being trained without explicit triplet supervision. Durian achieves state-of-the-art performance on portrait animation with attribute transfer, and notably, its dual reference design enables multi-attribute composition in a single generation pass without additional training.
Abstract:We present PERSE, a method for building an animatable personalized generative avatar from a reference portrait. Our avatar model enables facial attribute editing in a continuous and disentangled latent space to control each facial attribute, while preserving the individual's identity. To achieve this, our method begins by synthesizing large-scale synthetic 2D video datasets, where each video contains consistent changes in the facial expression and viewpoint, combined with a variation in a specific facial attribute from the original input. We propose a novel pipeline to produce high-quality, photorealistic 2D videos with facial attribute editing. Leveraging this synthetic attribute dataset, we present a personalized avatar creation method based on the 3D Gaussian Splatting, learning a continuous and disentangled latent space for intuitive facial attribute manipulation. To enforce smooth transitions in this latent space, we introduce a latent space regularization technique by using interpolated 2D faces as supervision. Compared to previous approaches, we demonstrate that PERSE generates high-quality avatars with interpolated attributes while preserving identity of reference person.
Abstract:We present, PEGASUS, a method for constructing personalized generative 3D face avatars from monocular video sources. As a compositional generative model, our model enables disentangled controls to selectively alter the facial attributes (e.g., hair or nose) of the target individual, while preserving the identity. We present two key approaches to achieve this goal. First, we present a method to construct a person-specific generative 3D avatar by building a synthetic video collection of the target identity with varying facial attributes, where the videos are synthesized by borrowing parts from diverse individuals from other monocular videos. Through several experiments, we demonstrate the superior performance of our approach by generating unseen attributes with high realism. Subsequently, we introduce a zero-shot approach to achieve the same generative modeling more efficiently by leveraging a previously constructed personalized generative model.
