VARPose enhances 2D pose estimation with autoregressive modeling

Researchers have introduced VARPose, a novel method for enhancing 2D human pose estimation by adaptively densifying sparse poses. This technique utilizes Visual Autoregressive Modeling (VAR) and a Granularity-agnostic Pose Tokenizer (GPT) to create a unified, multi-scale discrete representation of poses. The UniSkelar model then predicts token sequences for increasing pose density in a coarse-to-fine manner, improving downstream tasks like 3D pose estimation and human mesh recovery. AI
