Abstract

The research in 3D human pose estimation from 2D images has achieved great success in recent years. However, the performance of existing 3D human pose estimation methods may degrade significantly in complicated scenarios. To improve the accuracy and robustness of 3D human pose estimation in unconstrained scenarios, this paper proposed ARGP-Pose, a monocular 3D pose estimation framework by exploring the relationship between the joint points of a 3D human pose. To be more specific, the proposed method included a new joint point preprocessing method and a 3D pose estimation network. The preprocessing method enhanced structural features and extracted the relationship among joint points, which were used as input of the following pose estimation network. Also, the proposed network fused local information of each joint point and the global information of the overall pose for rich feature extraction. Additionally, the proposed method extracted the temporal information by using a self-attention module, which achieved further performance boost. Last, for a complex human pose, this method decomposed the prediction of the whole pose into the prediction of each point, which again improved the estimation accuracy for human bodies with complex pose variations. The experimental results obtained on several well-known benchmarking datasets, such as Human3.6M and HumanEva-I, demonstrate the merits and superiority of the proposed method.
