This paper addresses a crucial aspect of advanced vision computing: estimating the poses of hands and objects interacting with each other. The primary challenge lies in understanding and reconstructing these interactions, including contact and physical plausibility. Existing approaches utilize graph neural networks to incorporate spatial information from hand and object meshes. However, these methods have not fully leveraged the potential of graphs without modifying edges within and between hand- and object-graphs. To overcome this limitation, we propose a graph-based refinement method that incorporates an interaction-aware graph-attention mechanism. This approach establishes connections among closely correlated nodes, both within individual graphs and across different graphs. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method, showcasing notable improvements in physical plausibility.

Imagine trying to figure out how a person is holding a object, like a pencil or a book. This paper helps computers do just that by understanding how hands and objects interact with each other. It’s an important problem because it can help us create more advanced computer vision systems. The challenge is figuring out what’s happening between the hand and the object, like if they’re touching or not. Some methods use special graphs to understand this interaction, but they haven’t been very effective. This paper proposes a new way of using these graphs that takes into account how hands and objects interact with each other. Our tests show that this method works well and can help computers better understand physical interactions.
