Looking deep at people: towards understanding and generating humans in images with deep learning by de Bem, RA

“…</p> <p>This thesis pursues further advances towards understanding and generating people in visual data by the development of new discriminative and generative deep learning methods. The main contributions are: </p> <p>i) A deep learning framework for 2D human pose estimation, which allows for mean-field inference over part-based models; </p> <p>ii) A conditional deep generative model that achieves state-of-the-art results on generating images of humans conditioned on body posture; and </p> <p>iii) A structured semi-supervised deep generative model that jointly performs pose estimation and image generation, <em>understanding</em> and <em>generating</em> people in images in a single framework.…”
