Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for generating a 3D body mesh. The system receives an image that includes a depiction of a real-world object in a real-world environment. The system applies a first machine learning model to a portion of the image that depicts the real-world object to predict a tensor of heatmaps representing vertex positions of a plurality of triangles of a 3D mesh corresponding to the real-world object. First and second heatmaps of the tensor represent respectively first and second groups of possible coordinates for a first vertex of a first triangle of the plurality of triangles. The system generates the 3D mesh based on the selected subset of the tensor of heatmaps.
