Abstract
Figure 1. Examples of FreeUV results. Top to bottom: input face images, recovered UV textures, and FLAME model-based rendering.
FreeUV generates a complete UV texture from a single face image without requiring ground-truth UV supervision during training. The method captures intricate details, such as facial hair, wrinkles, occlusions, and makeup, while demonstrating robustness across diverse scenarios, achieving high fidelity and coherent texture recovery.
