Abstract: 3D pose estimation offers the opportunity for fast, non-invasive, and accurate motion analysis. This is of special interest also for clinical use. Currently, motion capture systems are used, as they offer robust and precise data acquisition, which is essential in the case of clinical applications. In this study, we investigate the accuracy of the state-of-the-art 3D position estimation approach MeTrabs, compared to the established inertial sensor system MTw Awinda for specific motion exercises. The study uses and provides an evaluation dataset of parallel recordings from 10 subjects during various movement therapy exercises. The information from the Awinda system and the frames for monocular pose estimation are synchronized. For the comparison, clinically relevant parameters for joint angles of ankle, knee, back, and elbow flexion-extension were estimated and evaluated using mean, median, and maximum deviation between the calculated joint angles for the different exercises, camera positions, and clothing items. The results of the analysis indicate that the mean and median deviations can be kept below 5{\deg} for some of the studied angles. These joints could be considered for medical applications even considering the maximum deviations of 15{\deg}. However, caution should be applied to certain particularly problematic joints. In particular, elbow flexions, which showed high maximum deviations of up to 50{\deg} in our analysis. Furthermore, the type of exercise plays a crucial role in the reliable and safe application of the 3D position estimation method. For example, all joint angles showed a significant deterioration in performance during exercises near the ground.

Biomechanical Reconstruction with Confidence Intervals from Multiview Markerless Motion Capture [2.07180164747172]
We show confidence intervals over specific kinematic estimates from a specific individual analyzed using a possibly unique camera configuration. We extend our previous work using an implicit representation of trajectories optimized end-to-end through a differentiable biomechanical model. This posterior probability is learned through a variational approximation and estimates confidence intervals for individual joints at each moment in a trial.

We propose a novel online approach to learning the pose dynamics, which are independent of pose detections in current fame. Specifically, we derive this prediction of dynamics through a graph neural network(GNN) that explicitly accounts for both spatial-temporal and visual information. Experiments on PoseTrack 2017 and PoseTrack 2018 datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves results superior to the state of the art on both human pose estimation and tracking tasks.

Appearance Learning for Image-based Motion Estimation in Tomography [60.980769164955454]

Patient motion corrupts the geometry alignment in the reconstruction process resulting in motion artifacts. We propose an appearance learning approach recognizing the structures of rigid motion independently from the scanned object.
