• Abstract: One major challenge for monocular 3D human pose estimation in-the-wild is the acquisition of training data that contains unconstrained images annotated with accurate 3D poses. In this paper, we address this challenge by proposing a weakly-supervised approach that does not require 3D annotations and learns to estimate 3D poses from unlabeled multi-view data, which can be acquired easily in in-the-wild environments. We propose a novel end-to-end learning framework that enables weakly-supervised training using multi-view consistency. Since multi-view consistency is prone to degenerated solutions, we adopt a 2.5D pose representation and propose a novel objective function that can only be minimized when the predictions of the trained model are consistent and plausible across all camera views. We evaluate our proposed approach on two large scale datasets (Human3.6M and MPII-INF-3DHP) where it achieves state-of-the-art performance among semi-/weakly-supervised methods.

  We propose a monocular camera and single LiDAR-based method for 3D multi-person pose estimation in large-scale scenes. Specifically, we design an effective fusion strategy to take advantage of multi-modal input data, including images and point cloud. Our method exploits the inherent geometry constraints of point cloud for self-supervision and utilizes 2D keypoints on images for weak supervision.

  Supervised approaches to 3D pose estimation from single images are remarkably effective when labeled data is abundant. Much of the recent attention has shifted towards semi and (or) weakly supervised learning. We propose to impose multi-view geometrical constraints by means of a differentiable triangulation and to use it as form of self-supervision during training when no labels are available.

  We propose a self-supervised approach that learns a single image 3D pose estimator from unlabeled multi-view data. In contrast to most existing methods, we do not require calibrated cameras and can therefore learn from moving cameras. Key to the success are new, unbiased reconstruction objectives that mix information across views and training samples.

  We present a deployment friendly, fast bottom-up framework for multi-person 3D human pose estimation. We adopt a novel neural representation of multi-person 3D pose which unifies the position of person instances with their corresponding 3D pose representation. We propose a practical deployment paradigm where paired 2D or 3D pose annotations are unavailable.

  Generalizability of human pose estimation models developed using supervision on large-scale in-studio datasets remains questionable. We propose a novel kinematic-structure-preserved unsupervised 3D pose estimation framework, which is not restrained by any paired or unpaired weak supervisions. Our proposed model employs three consecutive differentiable transformations named as forward-kinematics, camera-projection and spatial-map transformation.
