• Abstract: Over the past few years, the vision transformer and its various forms have gained significance in human pose estimation. By treating image patches as tokens, transformers can capture global relationships wisely, estimate the keypoint tokens by leveraging the visual tokens, and recognize the posture of the human body. Nevertheless, global attention is computationally demanding, which poses a challenge for scaling up transformer-based methods to high-resolution features. In this paper, we introduce sparsity in both keypoint token attention and visual token attention to improve human pose estimation. Experimental results on the MPII dataset demonstrate that our model has a higher level of accuracy and proved the feasibility of the method, achieving new state-of-the-art results. The idea can also provide references for other transformer-based models.

  We leverage deep features extracted from a pretrained vision transformer (ViT) to encourage recovered images to be sharp without sacrificing the performance measured by the quantitative metrics. By comparing the transformer features between recovered image and target one, the pretrained transformer provides high-resolution blur-sensitive semantic information. One regards the features as vectors and computes the discrepancy between representations extracted from recovered image and target one in Euclidean space.

  Methods for data-efficient recognition from body poses increasingly leverage skeleton sequences structured as image-like arrays. We look at this paradigm from the perspective of transformer networks, for the first time exploring visual transformers as data-efficient encoders of skeleton movement. In our pipeline, body pose sequences cast as image-like representations are converted into patch embeddings and then passed to a visual transformer backbone optimized with deep metric learning.
