Inference of Pose Parameters Rotation and Translation of Torso in X axes Rotation of left shoulder in X and Z axes
Inference of Pose Parameters Let F(ө) = Minimize F(ө) using Powell Minimization Computational Problem: Each evaluation of F(ө) requires a graph cut to be computed. (computationally expensive!!) BUT.. Solution: Usethe dynamic graph cut algorithm [Kohli&Torr, ICCV 2005]
