High-Fidelity Single-Image Head Modeling with Industry-Grade Topology

ArXi:2605.04524v1 Announce Type: new We present a single-image head mesh reconstruction framework that addresses the longstanding challenge of simultaneously preserving facial identity and producing industry-grade topology. Our framework adopts a coarse-to-fine optimization pipeline that refines a rigged template across three stages -- rig, joint, and vertex -- achieving stable convergence and consistent topology. To mitigate the ill-posed nature of single-image 3D face reconstruction and ensure identity preservation, we employ a normal consistency objective jointly with landmark alignment.
