  We find that context information plays an important role in reasoning human body configuration and invisible keypoints. Inspired by this, we propose a cascaded context mixer ( CCM) which efficiently integrates spatial and channel context information. To maximize CCM's representation capability, we develop a hard-negative person detection mining strategy and a joint-training strategy. We present several sub-pixel refinement techniques for postprocessing keypoint predictions to improve detection accuracy.
