PoseField: an efficient mean-field based method for joint estimation of human pose, segmentation, and depth

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...

description 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.
