• Authors: Mohammad Rezaei, Razieh Rastgoo, and Vassilis Athitsos
• Abstract summary: TriHorn-Net is a novel model that uses specific innovations to improve hand pose estimation accuracy on depth images. The first innovation is the decomposition of the 3D hand pose estimation into the estimation of 2D joint locations in the depth image space. The second innovation is PixDropout, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first appearance-based data augmentation method for hand depth images.

• Abstract: 3D hand pose estimation methods have made significant progress recently. However, estimation accuracy is often far from sufficient for specific real-world applications, and thus there is significant room for improvement. This paper proposes TriHorn-Net, a novel model that uses specific innovations to improve hand pose estimation accuracy on depth images. The first innovation is the decomposition of the 3D hand pose estimation into the estimation of 2D joint locations in the depth image space (UV), and the estimation of their corresponding depths aided by two complementary attention maps. This decomposition prevents depth estimation, which is a more difficult task, from interfering with the UV estimations at both the prediction and feature levels. The second innovation is PixDropout, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first appearance-based data augmentation method for hand depth images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on three public benchmark datasets.

  We propose a two-stage framework that first predicts depth up to an unknown scale and shift from a single monocular image. We then exploits 3D point cloud data to predict the depth shift and the camera's focal length that allow us to recover 3D scene shapes. We test our depth model on nine unseen datasets and achieve state-of-the-art performance on zero-shot evaluation.

  Estimating 3D hand poses from RGB images is essential to a wide range of potential applications, but is challengingowing to substantial ambiguity in the inference of depth in-formation from RGB images. We propose a conditional generative adversarial network (GAN) model,called Depth-image Guided GAN (DGGAN), to generate re-alistic depth maps conditioned on the input RGB image. Experimental results on multiplebenchmark datasets show that the synthesized depth mapsproduced by DGGAN are quite effective in regularizing thepose estimation model.
