Reprojection of 3D keypoints

[mshooter]

Hi,

I am reprojecting the keypoint_3d data, however, they do not corresponds to the keypoint_2d. They do correspond to the reproj_kp_2d. But it is slightly off of the keypoint_2d ground truth. Which library did you use to reproject the keypoints?

Have you solved the problem? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks!

Hi @luoxue-star, unfortunately no, if you find the solution please update this thread :) !

Hi! @mshooter May I ask how you performed the projection? The JSON annotation files provided by the authors do not include camera intrinsic parameters. When I set empirical values for projection, they do not align with the images. I'm looking forward to your response! Thank you!

Hi @ShirleyMaxx I have not been able to do so. I am having a similar issue as you. Are you using Pytorch3D to reproject the keypoints?

[luoxue-star]

`def projection(points, k): proj = np.dot(k, points.T).T proj = proj / proj[:, 2][:, None] print(f"proj points 2d: {proj.astype(np.int32).tolist()}")

data = read_json_file(path) # read data from json file print(f"reproj points 2d: {data[2]['reproj_kp_2d']}") trans = np.array(data[2]['trans']) points_3d = np.array(data[2]['keypoint_3d']) k = np.eye(3, dtype=np.float32) k[0, 2], k[1, 2] = data[2]['width'] // 2, data[2]['height'] // 2

k[0, 0], k[1, 1] = 1000., 1000. projection(points_3d, k)`

@mshooter You can do this. But the projected 3D keypoints can only correspond to reproj_kp_2d, not to 2D keypoints.

@luoxue-star Indeed that as the approach however, the reprojected 2D keypoints are not as accurate as the true 2D ground truths. Which might affect the networks performance. Thank you though!

@mshooter @luoxue-star Thank you for your reply! I didn't use PyTorch3D, but instead followed @luoxue-star approach and wrote the projection in Python. However, I chose the focal length as (img_w * img_w + img_h * img_h) ** 0.5. When I changed it to 1000 as @luoxue-star suggested, the projected points aligned with the reprojected 2D keypoints, although this is not as accurate as the true 2D ground truths.

Thank you all for replying and confirming for having similar issues :)
