RGBD-GAN: Unsupervised 3D Representation Learning From Natural Image Datasets via RGBD Image Synthesis
share
Understanding three-dimensional (3D) geometries from two-dimensional (2D) images without any labeled information is promising for understanding the real world without incurring annotation cost. We herein propose a novel generative model, RGBD-GAN, which achieves unsupervised 3D representation learning from 2D images. The proposed method enables camera parameter conditional image generation and depth image generation without any 3D annotations such as camera poses or depth. We used an explicit 3D consistency loss for two RGBD images generated from different camera parameters in addition to the ordinal GAN objective. The loss is simple yet effective for any type of image generator such as the DCGAN and StyleGAN to be conditioned on camera parameters. We conducted experiments and demonstrated that the proposed method could learn 3D representations from 2D images with various generator architectures.
