Contact pressure between the human body and its surroundings has important implications. For example, it plays a role in comfort, safety, posture, and health. We present a method that infers contact pressure between a human body and a…
Most 2D human pose estimation frameworks estimate keypoint confidence in an ad-hoc manner, using heuristics such as the maximum value of heatmaps. The confidence is part of the evaluation scheme, e.g., AP for the MSCOCO dataset, yet has…
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…
