Human pose estimation in video relies on local information by either estimating each frame independently or tracking poses across frames. In this paper, we propose a novel method combining local approaches with global context. We introduce…

The goal of 2D human pose estimation (HPE) is to localize anatomical landmarks, given an image of a person in a pose. SOTA techniques make use of thousands of labeled figures (finetuning transformers or training deep CNNs), acquired using…

Video annotation is expensive and time consuming. Consequently, datasets for multi-person pose estimation and tracking are less diverse and have more sparse annotations compared to large scale image datasets for human pose estimation. This…
