Could you give me more details? Why are you trying to match estimated bbox with the GT 2D poses?
Becasue I want to generate 2D heatmap of each person in the cropped images based on the bounding box the GT 2D pose.
For example, there are two persons (P1 and P2) in the input image, the estimated bbox is (bbox_P1, bbox_P2). Then I plan to generate 2D heatmap using bbox_P1 and the matched GT 2D pose P2d_GT_P1. In this way, the task of multi-person pose estiamtion is sparated by several tasks of single-person pose estimation.
There can be several heuristic ways. For example, you can make bbox from GT 2D poses by extending min/max coordinates of joints. Then, calculate IoU with estimated bbox from Mask R-CNN. Choose box with the largest IoU.
Thanks for your answer! I will try to implement it. By the way, do you also use this strategy to implement your experiments on MuCo-3DHP dataset? I notice that you also estimated the bbox first.
No I don't use GT 2D box during inference.
If I understand correctly now, you only need to estimate the 2D pose first on cropped image based on the estimated bbox and then transform the estimated 2d pose from cropped image to the real image space. In this way, you do not need to match the estimated bbox with ground truth bbox/2d-pose/3d-pose.
I can do that, but it requires additional pre-processing stage for the 2d pose.
Sorry I did not express it clear. You first estimated bbox on MuCo-3DHP dataset. Then the RootNet and PoseNet are trained on the cropped image and corresponding GT 2D/3D poses. My question is that how do you know the each bbox in one image corresponds to the specific GT 2D pose in multi-person dataset in your implementation. Maybe it is a naive question, but it confuses me now.
Ah I understand your question. During the training stage, I use GT bbox. During the testing stage, MuPoTS-3D dataset matches each bbox to GT using some heuristics (I'm not author of that dataset, so don't know exactly. But it seems it picks a detection result that has a minimum pose distance with GT).
Thanks! I think the advice you gave yesterday will be helpful.
Thanks for sharing your nice work!
I have a naive question about how to match the estimated bbox with the groud-truth 2D pose. Since the bounding boxes are obtained from Mask Rcnn without fine-tuning, the sequence of bbox may be different from the ground truth. I would appreciate if you can give me any hint.
