Dressing Avatars: Deep Photorealistic Appearance for Physically Simulated Clothing. (arXiv:2206.15470v2 [cs.GR] UPDATED)

Despite recent progress in developing animatable full-body avatars, realistic
modeling of clothing - one of the core aspects of human self-expression -
remains an open challenge. State-of-the-art physical simulation methods can
generate realistically behaving clothing geometry at interactive rates.
Modeling photorealistic appearance, however, usually requires physically-based
rendering which is too expensive for interactive applications. On the other
hand, data-driven deep appearance models are capable of efficiently producing
realistic appearance, but struggle at synthesizing geometry of highly dynamic
clothing and handling …
