Joint pose estimation method, joint pose estimation system, and joint pose estimation program

According to the method of the present disclosure, a two-dimensional joint pose of a target object belonging to an articulated object is estimated from an image of the target object by using a model. A query pose is generated by removing a joint whose confidence score is lower than a threshold from the two-dimensional joint pose of the target object. A sample two-dimensional joint pose closest to the query pose is obtained from a database in which a plurality of sample two-dimensional joint poses is registered for each basic joint pose of a sample articulated object. The two-dimensional joint pose of the target object is corrected by replacing the joint whose confidence score is lower than the threshold with a corresponding joint of the sample two-dimensional joint pose closest to the query pose.
