Embodiment 1

[0045] In complex scenes, the posture of the human body is special or the limbs are distorted. Due to the influence of light refraction or reflection due to environmental reasons, when the scale of the human body in the image changes greatly, the estimation is not accurate enough, and the estimation performance is not robust and immature. Unable to reach app level. The present invention conducts research in view of these current situations, and proposes a human body pose estimation method based on deformed convolution, see figure 1 , including the following steps:

[0046] (1) Get training images:

Abstract

The invention discloses a human posture estimation method based on deformation convolution, which solves the technical problem of estimating human posture from images. The method comprises the following steps: obtaining a training image; making a joint heat map; constructing a deformation convolution forward propagation module; constructing residual blocks and constructing multi-scale hourglass networks with deformed residual blocks; training and stacking of multi-scale hourglass networks with deformed residual block network structures; acquring that result of the human posture estimation. Theinvention uses deformation convolution and improves the internal connection mode of the hourglass network, a stacked multi-scale hourglass network with deformed residual blocks is constructed, For asingle natural color image, the human pose can be estimated more accurately by extracting and organizing the image features in the complex scene of distorted limbs or special posture, refraction or reflection of light, large variation of human scale, and occlusion. Used for human-computer interaction in multiple scenarios.
