Joint angle based learning to refine kinematic human pose estimation 文章

arXiv:2507.11075v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Marker-free human pose estimation (HPE) has found increasing applications in various fields. Current HPE suffers from occasional errors in keypoint recognition and random fluctuation in keypoint trajectories when analyzing kinematic human poses. The performance of existing deep learning-based models for HPE refinement is considerably limited by inaccurate training datasets in which the keypoints are manually annotated. This paper proposed a novel method to overcome the difficulty, in which the key techniques include: (i) A robust joint angle-based description of kinematic human poses; (ii) Approximating temporal variation of joint angles using high order Fourier series to get reliable "ground truth"; (iii) A bidirectional recurrent network is designed as a post-processing module to refine the estimation of single image-based HPE models.
