• Title: 3D Human Pose Estimation Based on 2D-3D Consistency with Synchronized Adversarial Training
• Authors: Yicheng Deng, Cheng Sun, Yongqi Sun, and Jiahui Zhu
• Abstract summary: We propose a GAN-based model for 3D human pose estimation, in which a reprojection network is employed to learn the mapping of the distribution from 3D poses to 2D poses. Inspired by the typical kinematic chain space (KCS) matrix, we introduce a weighted KCS matrix and take it as one of the discriminator's inputs to impose joint angle and bone length constraints.

• Abstract: 3D human pose estimation from a single image is still a challenging problem despite the large amount of work that has been performed in this field. Generally, most methods directly use neural networks and ignore certain constraints (e.g., reprojection constraints, joint angle, and bone length constraints). While a few methods consider these constraints but train the network separately, they cannot effectively solve the depth ambiguity problem. In this paper, we propose a GAN-based model for 3D human pose estimation, in which a reprojection network is employed to learn the mapping of the distribution from 3D poses to 2D poses, and a discriminator is employed for 2D-3D consistency discrimination. We adopt a novel strategy to synchronously train the generator, the reprojection network and the discriminator. Furthermore, inspired by the typical kinematic chain space (KCS) matrix, we introduce a weighted KCS matrix and take it as one of the discriminator's inputs to impose joint angle and bone length constraints. The experimental results on Human3.6M show that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods in most cases.

  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 present a general formula for context modeling in which both PSM and GNN are its special cases. By comparing the two methods, we found that the end-to-end training scheme in GNN and the limb length constraints in PSM are two complementary factors to improve results. We propose ContextPose based on attention mechanism that allows enforcing soft limb length constraints in a deep network.

  This paper aims to estimate 3D mesh of multiple body parts with large-scale differences from a single RGB image. The main challenge is lacking training data that have complete 3D annotations of all body parts in 2D images. We propose a depth-to-scale (D2S) projection to incorporate the depth difference into the projection function to derive per-joint scale variants.

  Estimating 3D human poses from a monocular video is still a challenging task. Many existing methods drop when the target person is cluded by other objects, or the motion is too fast/slow relative to the scale and speed of the training data. We introduce atemporal-temporal network for robust 3D human pose estimation.

  Epipolar constraints are at the core of feature matching and depth estimation in multi-person 3D human pose estimation methods. Despite the satisfactory performance of this formulation in sparser crowd scenes, its effectiveness is frequently challenged under denser crowd circumstances. In this paper, we depart from the multi-person 3D pose estimation formulation, and instead reformulate it as crowd pose estimation.
