Unsupervised 3D Keypoint Estimation with Multi-View Geometry
share
Given enough annotated training data, 3D human pose estimation models can achieve high accuracy. However, annotations are not always available, especially for people performing unusual activities. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that learns to detect 3D keypoints on human bodies from multiple-views without any supervision other than the constraints multiple-view geometry provides. To ensure that the estimated 3D keypoints are meaningful, they are re-projected to each view to estimate the person's mask that the model itself has initially estimated. Our approach outperforms other state-of-the-art unsupervised 3D human pose estimation methods on the Human3.6M and MPI-INF-3DHP benchmark datasets.
