MoDeep: A deep learning framework using motion features for human pose estimation

Abstract

In this work, we propose a novel and efficient method for articulated human pose estimation in videos using a convolutional network architecture, which incorporates both color and motion features. We propose a new human body pose dataset, FLIC-motion (This dataset can be downloaded from http://cs.nyu.edu/∼ajain/accv2014/.), that extends the FLIC dataset [1] with additional motion features. We apply our architecture to this dataset and report significantly better performance than current state-of-the-art pose detection systems.
