Abstract

The invention discloses a human body pose estimation method based on deformation convolution, which solves the technical problem of estimating the human body pose from images. The implementation steps are: obtain training images; make joint point heat maps; construct deformation convolution forward propagation module; construct residual block and build multi-scale hourglass network with deformation residual block network structure; Multi-scale hourglass-shaped network with difference block network structure; obtain human body pose estimation results. The present invention uses deformed convolution and improves the internal connection mode of the hourglass-shaped network, and builds a multi-scale hourglass-shaped network stacked with a network structure of deformed residual blocks. It can effectively extract and organize image features and more accurately estimate human body posture in special, light refraction or reflection interference, large changes in human body scale, and complex scenes with occlusions. It is used for human-computer interaction in multiple scenarios.
