We propose a novel query design to encode the human instance information effectively, called human-centric query (HCQ) Experimental results show that the proposed multi-task network achieves comparable accuracy to state-of-the-art task-specific models.

• Abstract: Human is one of the most essential classes in visual recognition tasks such as detection, segmentation, and pose estimation. Although much effort has been put into individual tasks, multi-task learning for these three tasks has been rarely studied. In this paper, we explore a compact multi-task network architecture that maximally shares the parameters of the multiple tasks via object-centric learning. To this end, we propose a novel query design to encode the human instance information effectively, called human-centric query (HCQ). HCQ enables for the query to learn explicit and structural information of human as well such as keypoints. Besides, we utilize HCQ in prediction heads of the target tasks directly and also interweave HCQ with the deformable attention in Transformer decoders to exploit a well-learned object-centric representation. Experimental results show that the proposed multi-task network achieves comparable accuracy to state-of-the-art task-specific models in human detection, segmentation, and pose estimation task, while it consumes less computational costs.

  Multi-Task Learning (MTL) is a framework, where multiple related tasks are learned jointly and benefit from a shared representation space. We show that MTL can be successful with classification tasks with little, or non-overlapping annotations. We propose a novel approach, where knowledge exchange is enabled between the tasks via distribution matching.

  Multitask learning assumes that models capable of learning from multiple tasks can achieve better quality and efficiency via knowledge transfer. State of the art ML models rely on high customization for each task and leverage size and data scale rather than scaling the number of tasks. We propose an evolutionary method that can generate a large scale multitask model and can support the dynamic and continuous addition of new tasks.
