{"slug": "gnm-head-high-fidelity-statistical-3d-model-of-the-human-head", "title": "GNM Head: high-fidelity statistical 3D model of the human head", "summary": "Google released GNM Head, a high-fidelity statistical 3D model of the human head, as part of the GNM Ecosystem for parametric human modeling. The model provides fine-grained control over identity, expressions, and head pose, and supports multiple deep learning frameworks. It is available under a permissive Apache 2.0 license for both non-commercial and commercial use.", "body_md": "Welcome to the **GNM Ecosystem** repository. GNM - pronounced as genome\n(/ˈdʒiː.noʊm/) in reference to the human genome - strives to be the most\naccurate and complete 3D parametric human model.\n\n3D Morphable Models (3DMMs) are widely used across computer vision, computer graphics, and generative AI for representing human geometry and appearance. GNM introduces a state-of-the-art family of parametric statistical human models and its associated perception stack.\n\nOur roadmap includes releasing a comprehensive suite of statistical models\ncomplemented by perception and analysis technology. To facilitate early\ncommunity research and open development, we are beginning our open-source\nrelease with **GNM Head**, our high-fidelity statistical 3D model of the human\nhead.\n\nThe ecosystem is released under a permissive license suitable for both non-commercial and commercial applications.\n\nHere we list all the available GNM packages:\n\n| Name | Description | Chips | Teaser |\n|---|---|---|---|\n|\nParametric 3D statistical human head and face geometry model providing fine-grained, disentangled control over identity, expressions, and head pose. The model contains controllable internal anatomy including eyeballs, teeth and tongue. Includes multi-framework backend support for NumPy, JAX, PyTorch, and TensorFlow, along with semantic parameter sampling. |\n|\n\nIf you use any part of the GNM Ecosystem in your work, please consider citing the corresponding package. Relevant bibtex entries can be found in the individual packages.\n\nWe'd love to accept your patches and contributions to this project!
