Abstract
In one embodiment, a system may access a codec that encodes an appearance associated with a subject and comprise codec portions that respectively correspond to body parts of the subject. The system may generate a training codec that comprises a first subset of the codec portions (a first set of body parts) and a modified second subset of the codec portions (muted body parts). The system may decode the training codec using a machine-learning model to generate a mesh of the subject. The system may transform the mesh of the subject based on a predetermined pose. The system may update the machine-learning model based on a comparison between the transformed mesh and a target mesh of the subject having the predetermined pose. The system in the present application can train a machine-learning model to render an avatar with a pose using uncorrelated codec portions corresponding to different body parts.
