This paper introduces T3HG-Editor, a novel text-driven 3D human garment editing tool that leverages the SMPL-X model to achieve high-fidelity and garment-consistent results. By integrating geometry and joint priors, the method effectively addresses the limitations of existing 3D Gaussian Editing techniques, which often suffer from distortions and inconsistencies. Experimental results show that T3HG-Editor significantly outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in both editing quality and garment consistency across various subjects and garment types.
T3HG-Editor achieves unprecedented garment consistency in 3D human editing by embedding body priors from the SMPL-X model, setting a new standard for fidelity in text-driven applications.
While 3D Gaussian Editing (3DGE) has seen substantial progress, text-driven 3D human garment editing remains largely underexplored. Existing 3DGE works typically follow a paradigm that applies 2D editing techniques to multi-view rendered images and updates 3D Gaussians based on the modified images. Extending such methods to 3D human garment editing suffers from low-fidelity outcomes, caused by introduced distortions and garment inconsistencies. A promising breakthrough opportunity arises from the SMPL eXpressive (SMPL-X) model that embodies rich prior information for virtual humans. Motivated by this insight, we propose a text-driven 3D human garment editor termed T3HG-Editor, which delivers high-fidelity and garment consistent results by leveraging geometry and joint priors embedded in SMPL-X. Specifically, T3HG-Editor contains three stages, namely obtainment of editable Gaussians, garment consistent editing, and Gaussian updating with overflow pruning. The obtainment of editable Gaussians begins with seeding Gaussians along SMPL-X normals to generate sufficient near surface Gaussians, followed by a 2D mask constraint that precisely localizes the target Gaussians to be edited. The garment consistent editing aggregates tokens corresponding to the same SMPL-X vertex across multiple views and propagates them to their original views, enforcing garment consistency without requiring additional training. Gaussian updating with overflow pruning employs a Signed Distance Function (SDF) defined on SMPL-X to construct a human distance field, which is then integrated with a 2D semantic mask to prune overflowing Gaussians, thus preventing contamination of non-target regions. Experiments on multiple subjects and diverse garment types demonstrate that T3HG-Editor outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both editing quality and garment consistency.
