ReFA is on par with the industrial pipelines in quality f or producing accurate, complete, registered, and textured assets directly applicable to physically-based rendering, but produces the asset end-to-en d, fully automatically at a significantly faster speed at 4.5 FPS, which i s un-\nprecedented among neural-based techniques. Our method represents fa ce geometry as a position map in the UV space. The network first extracts per-pixel features in both the multi-view image space and the UV space. A recurrent module then iteratively optimizes the geometry by projecting the image-space features to the UV space and comparing them with a reference UV-space feature. The optimized geometry then provides pixel-aligned signa ls for the inference of high-resolution textures. Experiments have validat ed that ReFA achieves a median error of 0.603𝑚𝑚 in geometry reconstruction , is robust to extreme pose and expression, and excels in sparse-view sett ings. We believe that the progress achieved by our network enables lightwe ight, fast face assets acquisition that significantly boosts the downstrea m applications, such as avatar creation and facial performance capture. It will also enable massive database capturing for deep learning purposes.\n \nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, ON-DEMAND ACCESS\n\nLanguage: ENGLIS H\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON, ON-DEMAND URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=papers_469&sess=sess16 3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
