ECCV 2024 - Best Paper Candidate

Sapiens offers a comprehensive suite for human-centric vision tasks (e.g., 2D pose, part segmentation, depth, normal, etc.). The model family is pretrained on 300 million in-the-wild human images and shows excellent generalization to unconstrained conditions. These models are also designed for extracting high-resolution features, having been natively trained at a 1024 x 1024 image resolution with a 16-pixel patch size.

Sapiens2 is out! Please checkout: https://github.com/facebookresearch/sapiens2

🚀 Getting Started

Clone the Repository

bash git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/sapiens.git export SAPIENS_ROOT=/path/to/sapiens

Recommended: Lite Installation (Inference-only)

For users setting up their own environment primarily for running existing models in inference mode, we recommend the Sapiens-Lite installation.\ This setup offers optimized inference (4x faster) with minimal dependencies (only PyTorch + numpy + cv2).

Full Installation

To replicate our complete training setup, run the provided installation script. \ This will create a new conda environment named sapiens and install all necessary dependencies.

bash cd $SAPIENS_ROOT/_install ./conda.sh

Please download the original checkpoints from hugging-face. \ You can be selective about only downloading the checkpoints of interest.\ Set $SAPIENS_CHECKPOINT_ROOT to be the path to the sapiens_host folder. Place the checkpoints following this directory structure: plaintext sapiens_host/ ├── detector/ │ └── checkpoints/ │ └── rtmpose/ ├── pretrain/ │ └── checkpoints/ │ ├── sapiens_0.3b/ ├── sapiens_0.3b_epoch_1600_clean.pth │ ├── sapiens_0.6b/ ├── sapiens_0.6b_epoch_1600_clean.pth │ ├── sapiens_1b/ │ └── sapiens_2b/ ├── pose/ └── checkpoints/ ├── sapiens_0.3b/ └── seg/ └── depth/ └── normal/

🌟 Human-Centric Vision Tasks

We finetune sapiens for multiple human-centric vision tasks. Please checkout the list below.
