Beyond Tree Structure Models: A New Occlusion Aware Graphical Model for Human Pose Estimation
Occlusion is a main challenge for human pose estimation, which is largely ignored in popular tree structure models. The tree structure model is simple and convenient for exact inference, but short in modeling the occlusion coherence especially in the case of self-occlusion. We propose an occlusion aware graphical model which is able to model both self-occlusion and occlusion by the other objects simultaneously. The proposed model structure can encode the interactions between human body parts and objects, and hence enable it to learn occlusion coherence from data discriminatively. We evaluate our model on several public benchmarks for human pose estimation including challenging subsets featuring significant occlusion. The experimental results show that our method obtains comparable accuracy with the state-of-the-arts, and achieves promising performance in 2D human pose estimation with occlusion.

Parsing Occluded People by Flexible Compositions
This paper presents an approach to parsing humans when there is significant occlusion. We model humans using a graphical model which has a tree structure building on recent work [32, 6] and exploit the connectivity prior…
Occlusion-Aware Human Pose Estimation with Mixtures of Sub-Trees
In this paper, we study the problem of learning a model for human pose estimation as mixtures of compositional sub-trees in two layers of prediction. This involves estimating the pose of a sub-tree followed by identifyin…

Probabilistic graphical models offer a powerful framework to account for the dependence structure between variables, which is represented as a graph. However, the dependence between variables may render inference tasks i…
H2ONet: Hand-Occlusion-and-Orientation-Aware Network for Real-Time 3D Hand Mesh Reconstruction
Real-time 3D hand mesh reconstruction is challenging, especially when the hand is holding some object. Beyond the previous methods, we design H2ONet to fully exploit non-occluded information from multiple frames to b…
