Tóm tắt:Many models have been proposed to estimate human pose and segmentation by leveraging information from several sources. A standard approach is to formulate it in a dual decomposition framework. However, these models generally suffer from the problem of high computational complexity. In this work, we propose PoseField, a new highly efficient filter-based mean-field inference approach for jointly estimating human segmentation, pose, per-pixel body parts, and depth given stereo pairs of images. We extensively evaluate the efficiency and accuracy offered by our approach on H2View [1], and Buffy [2] datasets. We achieve 20 to 70 times speedup compared to the current state-of-the-art methods, as well as achieving better accuracy in all these cases.
