  1. Human Pose detection Abhinav Golas S. Arun Nair

  2. Overview • Problem • Previous solutions • Solution, details

  3. Problem • Segmentation of humans from video capture • Pose detection (by fitting onto body model) • Resistant to noise (background etc.)

  4. Previous procedures • View problem as sequential process • Segmentation • Pose detection • Problems: • Not using prior knowledge of “what a human looks like” in segmentation • Uses only information from detected “foreground” for pose detection • All available information not used

  5. Solution • Combine segmentation and pose detection as a single step • Uses all available information in frame (for pose detection) • Uses prior knowledge of human body for better segmentation • PoseCut: Bray, Kohli, Torr • Model segmentation as Bayesian labeling problem with 2 labels: foreground, background

  6. Details • Model problem as energy minimization problem – model as an MRF • Use a basic stickman model as a human body model • Adaptive model for background – GMM • Neighbourhood terms – Generalised Potts model

  7. MRF – Markov Random Fields • Markov property for time:P(event:t) depends on events at times k<t • Markov property for space:P(event:x) depends on events at N(x) – neighbourhood of x • Use Gibbs energy model for solving • We use neighbourhood of 8 pixels

  8. Basic model 26 degrees of freedom Stickman model

  9. GMM – Gaussian Mixture Model • Model each pixel of image as a weighted sum of Gaussian functions • Adapt functions using each new frame • Pixel matches expected value – background, else foreground

  10. Execution details • For each frame • Calculate weights for GMM, Potts model • For given value of 26 vector (based on degrees of freedom of stickman model) calculate energy cost for stickman model (by distance transform) • Minimize energy for Bayesian labeling by graph cut • Minimize 26 vector by repeated graph cuts by Powell's algorithm

  11. A – original frame B – segmentation by colour likelihood and contrast terms C – when GMM terms are taken D – with pose prior components E – deduced pose Sample results

  12. Comparisons
