HORIA: 4D Human and Object Reconstruction from a Monocular Video with Interaction-Aware Re-Rendering

Joint 4D reconstruction of a human and object from a monocular video is essential for understanding how people interact with their environment.

Key points

  • To address these challenges, we introduce HORIA, built upon two core designs.
  • Second, conditioned on these text descriptions of the interaction, we propose an interaction-aware re-rendering that compensates for the limited single-view observation.
  • Specifically, we render the initially reconstructed 4D human and object from novel viewpoints and refine the renderings with a text-to-video diffusion prior, which provides auxiliary novel-view supervision beyond single-view cues.
  • As a result, our framework produces temporally coherent and accurate 4D reconstructions under diverse interaction scenarios, achieving state-of-the-art performance.
