DensePose
A real-time approach for mapping all human pixels of 2D RGB images
DensePose is a computer vision system that maps all human pixels in an RGB image to the 3D surface of a human body model. It extends human pose estimation from predicting joint keypoints to providing dense correspondences between 2D images and a canonical 3D mesh (such as the SMPL model). This enables detailed understanding of human shape, motion, and surface appearance directly from images or videos. The repository includes the DensePose network architecture, training code, pretrained models, and dataset tools for annotation and visualization. DensePose is widely used in augmented reality, motion capture, virtual try-on, and visual effects applications because it enables real-time 3D human mapping from 2D inputs. The model architecture builds on Mask R-CNN, using additional regression heads to predict UV coordinates that map image pixels to 3D surfaces. -

PIFuHD
High-Resolution 3D Human Digitization from A Single Image
PIFuHD (Pixel-Aligned Implicit Function for 3D human reconstruction at high resolution) is a method and codebase to reconstruct high-fidelity 3D human meshes from a single image. It extends prior PIFu work by increasing resolution and detail, enabling fine geometry in cloth folds, hair, and subtle surface features. The method operates by learning an implicit occupancy / surface function conditioned on the image and camera projection; at inference time it queries dense points to reconstruct a mesh via marching cubes. It also uses a two-stage architecture: a coarse global model followed by local refinement patches to capture fine detail, balancing global consistency and local detail. The repo includes training pipelines, dataset loaders (for Multi-POP, etc.), and inference scripts for mesh output including depth maps for postprocessing. To help practical use, there are utilities for normal estimation, texture back-projection, mesh cleanup, and integration with rendering pipelines. -

Diffgram is world’s first truly open source training data platform that focuses on giving its users an unlimited experience. This is aimed to reduce your data labeling bills and increase your Training Data Quality. Training Data is the art of supervising machines through data. This includes the activities of annotation, which produces structured data; ready to be consumed by a machine learning model. Annotation is required because raw media is considered to be unstructured and not usable without it. That’s why training data is required for many modern machine learning use cases including computer vision, natural language processing and speech recognition. -

Segment Anything
Provides code for running inference with the SegmentAnything Model
Segment Anything (SAM) is a foundation model for image segmentation that’s designed to work “out of the box” on a wide variety of images without task-specific fine-tuning. It’s a promptable segmenter: you guide it with points, boxes, or rough masks, and it predicts high-quality object masks consistent with the prompt. The architecture separates a powerful image encoder from a lightweight mask decoder, so the heavy vision work can be computed once and the interactive part stays fast. A bundled automatic mask generator can sweep an image and propose many object masks, which is useful for dataset bootstrapping or bulk annotation. The repository includes ready-to-use weights, Python APIs, and example notebooks demonstrating both interactive and automatic modes. Because SAM was trained with an extremely large and diverse mask dataset, it tends to generalize well to new domains, making it a practical starting point for research and production annotation tools. -

The framework provides a complete training and evaluation pipeline for human pose estimation using a cascaded pyramid network (CPN). OpenCE leverages a feature pyramid structure combined with a refinement stage to improve keypoint detection accuracy across multiple scales, particularly for challenging poses in crowded scenes. The repository includes training scripts, pretrained models, and testing code, allowing users to reproduce results reported in the paper. It supports standard human pose estimation benchmarks such as COCO, with configurations optimized for accuracy and efficiency. As an open resource, OpenCE offers researchers and practitioners a strong baseline for pose estimation and a foundation for extending CPN-based methods. -

Colossal-AI
Making large AI models cheaper, faster and more accessible
The Transformer architecture has improved the performance of deep learning models in domains such as Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. Together with better performance come larger model sizes. This imposes challenges to the memory wall of the current accelerator hardware such as GPU. It is never ideal to train large models such as Vision Transformer, BERT, and GPT on a single GPU or a single machine. There is an urgent demand to train models in a distributed environment. However, distributed training, especially model parallelism, often requires domain expertise in computer systems and architecture. It remains a challenge for AI researchers to implement complex distributed training solutions for their models. Colossal-AI provides a collection of parallel components for you. We aim to support you to write your distributed deep learning models just like how you write your model on your laptop. -
