Abstract
Virtual try-on is a promising computer vision topic with a high commercial value wherein a new garment is visually worn on a person with a photo-realistic effect. Previous studies conduct their shape and content inference at one stage, employing a single-scale warping mechanism and a relatively unsophisticated content inference mechanism. These approaches have led to suboptimal results in terms of garment warping and skin reservation under challenging try-on scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose a novel virtual try-on method via progressive inference paradigm (PGVTON) that leverages a top-down inference pipeline and a general garment try-on strategy. Specifically, we propose a robust try-on parsing inference method by disentangling semantic categories and introducing consistency. Exploiting the try-on parsing as the shape guidance, we implement the garment try-on via warping-mapping-composition. To facilitate adaptation to a wide range of try-on scenarios, we adopt a covering more and selecting one warping strategy and explicitly distinguish tasks based on alignment. Additionally, we regulate StyleGAN2 to implement re-naked skin inpainting, conditioned on the target skin shape and spatial-agnostic skin features. Experiments demonstrate that our method has state-of-the-art performance under two challenging scenarios.
