Estimating 3D human poses from a monocular video is still a challenging task. Many existing methods' performance drops when the target person is occluded by other objects, or the motion is too fast/slow relative to the scale and speed of…

Category-level pose estimation is a challenging problem due to intra-class shape variations. Recent methods deform pre-computed shape priors to map the observed point cloud into the normalized object coordinate space and then retrieve the…
