UniDemoiré: Towards Universal Image Demoiréing with Data Generation and Synthesis

Image demoir\'eing poses one of the most formidable challenges in image restoration, primarily due to the unpredictable and anisotropic nature of moir\'e patterns. Limited by the quantity and diversity of training data, current methods tend to overfit to a single moir\'e domain, resulting in performance degradation for new domains and restricting their robustness in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose a universal image demoir\'eing solution, UniDemoir\'e, which has superior generalization capability. Notably, we propose innovative and effective data generation and synthesis methods that can automatically provide vast high-quality moir\'e images to train a universal demoir\'eing model. Our extensive experiments demonstrate the cutting-edge performance and broad potential of our approach for generalized image demoir\'eing.

EasyHOI: Unleashing the Power of Large Models for Reconstructing Hand-Object Interactions in the Wild

Our work aims to reconstruct hand-object interactions from a single-view image, which is a fundamental but ill-posed task. Unlike methods that reconstruct from videos, multi-view images, or predefined 3D templates, single-view reconstruction faces significant challenges due to inherent ambiguities and occlusions. These challenges are further amplified by the diverse nature of hand poses and the vast variety of object shapes and sizes. Our key insight is that current foundational models for segmentation, inpainting, and 3D reconstruction robustly generalize to in-the-wild images, which could provide strong visual and geometric priors for reconstructing hand-object interactions. Specifically, given a single image, we first design a novel pipeline to estimate the underlying hand pose and object shape using off-the-shelf large models. Furthermore, with the initial reconstruction, we employ a prior-guided optimization scheme, which optimizes hand pose to comply with 3D physical constraints and the 2D input image content. We perform experiments across several datasets and show that our method consistently outperforms baselines and faithfully reconstructs a diverse set of hand-object interactions.
