• Abstract summary: We propose a novel Confidence-Aware Learning (CAL) method for low-resolution pose estimation. CAL addresses two fundamental limitations of existing offset learning methods: inconsistent training and testing, decoupled heatmap and offset learning. Our method outperforms significantly the state-of-the-art methods for low-resolution human pose estimation.

• Abstract: Human pose estimation has achieved significant progress on images with high imaging resolution. However, low-resolution imagery data bring nontrivial challenges which are still under-studied. To fill this gap, we start with investigating existing methods and reveal that the most dominant heatmap-based methods would suffer more severe model performance degradation from low-resolution, and offset learning is an effective strategy. Established on this observation, in this work we propose a novel Confidence-Aware Learning (CAL) method which further addresses two fundamental limitations of existing offset learning methods: inconsistent training and testing, decoupled heatmap and offset learning. Specifically, CAL selectively weighs the learning of heatmap and offset with respect to ground-truth and most confident prediction, whilst capturing the statistical importance of model output in mini-batch learning manner. Extensive experiments conducted on the COCO benchmark show that our method outperforms significantly the state-of-the-art methods for low-resolution human pose estimation.

  Continual learning (CL) is a fundamental topic in machine learning, where the goal is to train a model with continuously incoming data and tasks. Due to the memory limit, we cannot store all the historical data, and therefore confront the catastrophic forgetting'' problem. We develop an effective algorithm to calibrate the gradient in each updating step of the model.

  Diffusion models are known for their tremendous ability to generate novel and high-quality samples.

We propose a novel training framework for diffusion models from the perspective of visual modality, which is more generic and fundamental for mitigating memorization.
