SIE3D: Single-Image Expressive 3D Avatar Generation via Semantic Embedding and Perceptual Expression Loss

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2509.24004v2 Announce Type: replace Generating high-fidelity 3D head avatars from a single image is challenging, as current methods lack fine-grained, intuitive control over expressions via text. This paper proposes SIE3D, a framework that generates expressive 3D avatars from a single image and descriptive text. SIE3D fuses identity features from the image with semantic embedding from text through a novel conditioning scheme, enabling detailed control. To ensure generated expressions accurately match the text, it.
