Virtual Bones with Direct Delta Mush .

Direct Delta Mush (DDM) is a high-quality, direct skinning method with a low setup cost. However, its storage and run-time computing cost are relatively high for two reasons: its skinning weights are 4 × 4 matrices instead of scalars like other direct skinning methods, and its computation requires one 3 × 3 Singular Value Decomposition per vertex. see this PDF.

see this video for SIGGRAPH 2021 Presentation: Direct Delta Mush Skinning Compression with Continuous Examples

SCANimate animatable avatar.

We present SCANimate, an end-to-end trainable framework that takes raw 3D scans of a clothed human and turns them into an animatable avatar. These avatars are driven by pose parameters and have realistic clothing that moves and deforms naturally. SCANimate does not rely on a customized mesh template or surface mesh registration...

The new 3D reconstructing with PIFuHD.

PIFuHD means Multi-Level Pixel-Aligned Implicit Function for High-Resolution 3D Human Digitization is a process of reconstructing high-quality 3D texture or geometry by making use of a texture map representation.
