• Abstract summary: We propose a novel approach to enhance the 3D body pose estimation of a person computed from videos captured from a single wearable camera. We introduce First2Third-Pose, a new paired synchronized dataset of nearly 2,000 videos depicting human activities captured from both first- and third-view perspectives. Experimental results demonstrate that the joint multi-view embedded space learned with our dataset is useful to extract discriminatory features from arbitrary single-view egocentric videos.

• Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel approach to enhance the 3D body pose estimation of a person computed from videos captured from a single wearable camera. The key idea is to leverage high-level features linking first- and third-views in a joint embedding space. To learn such embedding space we introduce First2Third-Pose, a new paired synchronized dataset of nearly 2,000 videos depicting human activities captured from both first- and third-view perspectives. We explicitly consider spatial- and motion-domain features, combined using a semi-Siamese architecture trained in a self-supervised fashion. Experimental results demonstrate that the joint multi-view embedded space learned with our dataset is useful to extract discriminatory features from arbitrary single-view egocentric videos, without needing domain adaptation nor knowledge of camera parameters. We achieve significant improvement of egocentric 3D body pose estimation performance on two unconstrained datasets, over three supervised state-of-the-art approaches. Our dataset and code will be available for research purposes.

  Multi-view 3D human pose estimation is naturally superior to single view one. The accurate annotation of these information is hard to obtain. We propose a fully self-supervised framework, named cascaded multi-view aggregating network (CMANet) CMANet is superior to state-of-the-art methods in extensive quantitative and qualitative analysis.

Our method is evaluated on Human3.6M, a popular 3D human pose detection dataset.

We then identify the appropriate intermediate volumetric latent space, and introduce robust normalization and de-normalization operations.

  We consider the problem of estimating the 3D position of multiple humans in a scene as well as their body shape and articulation from a single RGB video recorded with a static camera. We leverage recent advances in computer vision using large-scale pre-trained models for a variety of modalities, including 2D body joints, joint angles, normalized disparity maps, and human segmentation masks. In particular, we estimate the scene depth and unique person scale from normalized disparity predictions using the 2D body joints and joint angles.

We demonstrate the effectiveness of the synchronization task on the Human3.6M data set and achieve state-of-the-art results in 3D human pose estimation.
