• [2024.09.16] Release inference code and pretrained weights!
• [2024.08.27] Release paper and project page!
• Release reconstruction code.
• Release training code.

Currently, we provide two versions of models: a base model trained on ~2500 scans to generate 20 views and an enhanced model trained on ~5500 scans to generate 24 views. Models can be downloaded here. Both pretrained_weights and one version of magicman_{version} are needed to be downloaded and put under ./ckpt as:

|--- ckpt/
|    |--- pretrained_weights/
|    |--- magic_base/ or magic_plus/

git clone https://github.com/thuhcsi/MagicMan.git
cd MagicMan

# Create conda environment
conda create -n magicman python=3.10
conda activate magicman

⚠️This is an open-source research exploration rather than a commercial product, so it may not meet all your expectations. Due to the variability of the diffusion model, you may encounter failure cases. Try using different seeds and adjusting the denoising steps if the results are not desirable. Users are free to create novel views using this tool, but they must comply with local laws and use it responsibly. The developers do not assume any responsibility for potential misuse by users.
