3D human pose estimation with adaptive receptive fields and dilated temporal convolutions
In this work, we demonstrate that receptive fields in 3D pose estimation can be effectively specified using optical flow. We introduce adaptive receptive fields, a simple and effective method to aid receptive field selection in pose estimation models based on optical flow inference. We contrast the performance of a benchmark state-of-the-art model running on fixed receptive fields with their adaptive field counterparts. By using a reduced receptive field, our model can process slow-motion sequences (10x longer) 23 benchmark model running at regular speed. The reduction in computational cost is achieved while producing a pose prediction accuracy to within 0.36 benchmark model.
