New generative models boost pose estimation accuracy

Two new research papers introduce novel generative approaches to improve pose estimation accuracy. The first, GenCape, uses a structure-aware variational autoencoder and graph transfer module to infer keypoint relationships from limited examples without predefined skeletons. The second paper focuses on 3D human pose estimation by employing controllable generative augmentation to synthesize diverse video data, systematically varying poses, backgrounds, and camera viewpoints to enhance domain generalization. AI

IMPACT These generative approaches offer new techniques for improving the accuracy and robustness of pose estimation models across diverse scenarios.

    GenCape: Structure-Inductive Generative Modeling for Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation

    Category-agnostic pose estimation (CAPE) aims to localize keypoints on query images from arbitrary categories, using only a few annotated support examples for guidance. Recent approaches either treat keypoints as isolated entities or rely on manually defined skeleton priors, whic…

    Enhancing Domain Generalization in 3D Human Pose Estimation through Controllable Generative Augmentation

    Pedestrian motion, due to its causal nature, is strongly influenced by domain gaps arising from discrepancies between training and testing data distributions. Focusing on 3D human pose estimation, this work presents a controllable human pose generation framework that synthesizes …
