Human pose and shape estimation methods continue to suffer in situations where one or more parts of the body are occluded. More importantly, these methods cannot express when their predicted pose is incorrect. This has serious consequences…
A key assumption of top-down human pose estimation approaches is their expectation of having a single person/instance present in the input bounding box. This often leads to failures in crowded scenes with occlusions. We propose a novel…
Multi-person pose estimation generally follows top-down and bottom-up paradigms. Both of them use an extra stage ($\boldsymbol{e.g.,}$ human detection in top-down paradigm or grouping process in bottom-up paradigm) to build the relationship…
