Descrizione The fashion industry is undergoing a digital revolution driven by recent technological improvements. Particularly in design processes and marketing strategies, new solutions have been introduced in recent years. Both market brands and researchers are increasingly investing in technologies like Virtual Fitting Rooms (VFRs) to enrich customer experiences with innovative features, such as Virtual Try-On (VTON) applications, aimed at facilitating shopping. Despite these advancements, challenges persist that could prevent customers from fully leveraging VTON solutions. These challenges include difficulties in recreating high-fidelity avatars of the users and simulating real-time clothing deformations.
In this field, several theses are available. One of the goals is to improve the generation of high-fidelity avatars. Specifically, the thesis requires optimizing an existing framework for the generation of avatars by exploring new solutions aimed at i) better estimating the values of the parametric model describing the avatar, ii) coping with the current limitations of existing frameworks, iii) identifying solutions for generating not only the 3D model but also the textures and fine details of the avatar. Another research direction considers the challenges related to clothes generation and animation. In this respect, the thesis would require the design of new solutions able to i) automatically reconstruct the physical properties of the materials from images and scans, and ii) generate the 3D model of the garment from the sewing patterns. Moreover, the advantages brought by the use of parametric virtual try-on and real-time cloth deformation could be studied.
