Implementation of NeurIPS-2021 paper: Direct Multi-view Multi-person 3D Human Pose Estimation

[paper] [video-YouTube, video-Bilibili] [slides]

This is the official implementation of our NeurIPS-2021 work: Multi-view Pose Transformer (MvP). MvP is a simple algorithm that directly regresses multi-person 3D human pose from multi-view images.

1. Installation

  1. Set the project root directory as ${POSE_ROOT}.
  2. Install all the required python packages (with requirements.txt).
  3. compile deformable operation for projective attention.
cd ./models/ops
sh ./make.sh

2. Data and Pre-trained Model Preparation

2.1 CMU Panoptic

Please follow VoxelPose to download the CMU Panoptic Dataset and PoseResNet-50 pre-trained model.

The directory tree should look like this:

${POSE_ROOT}
|-- models
|   |-- pose_resnet50_panoptic.pth.tar
|-- data
|   |-- panoptic
|   |   |-- 16060224_haggling1
|   |   |   |-- hdImgs
|   |   |   |-- hdvideos
|   |   |   |-- hdPose3d_stage1_coco19
|   |   |   |-- calibration_160224_haggling1.json
|   |   |-- 160226_haggling1
|   |   |-- ...

2.2 Shelf/Campus

Please follow VoxelPose to download the Shelf/Campus Dataset.

Due to the limited and incomplete annotations of the two datasets, we use psudo ground truth 3D pose generated from VoxelPose to train the model, we expect mvp would perform much better with absolute ground truth pose data.

Please use voxelpose or other methods to generate psudo ground truth for the training set, you can also use our generated psudo GT: psudo_gt_shelf. psudo_gt_campus. psudo_gt_campus_fix_gtmorethanpred.

Due to the small dataset size, we fine-tune Panoptic pre-trained model to Shelf and Campus. Download the pretrained MvP on Panoptic from model_best_5view and model_best_3view_horizontal_view or model_best_3view_2horizon_1lookdown

The directory tree should look like this:

${POSE_ROOT}
|-- models
|   |-- model_best_5view.pth.tar
|   |-- model_best_3view_horizontal_view.pth.tar
|   |-- model_best_3view_2horizon_1lookdown.pth.tar
|-- data
|   |-- Shelf
|   |   |-- Camera0
|   |   |-- ...
|   |   |-- Camera4
|   |   |-- actorsGT.mat
|   |   |-- calibration_shelf.json
|   |   |-- pesudo_gt
|   |   |   |-- voxelpose_pesudo_gt_shelf.pickle
|   |-- CampusSeq1

|   |   |   |-- voxelpose_pesudo_gt_campus.pickle
|   |   |   |-- voxelpose_pesudo_gt_campus_fix_gtmorethanpred_case.pickle

2.3 Human3.6M dataset

Please follow CHUNYUWANG/H36M-Toolbox to prepare the data.

2.4 Full Directory Tree

The data and pre-trained model directory tree should look like this, you can only download the Panoptic dataset and PoseResNet-50 for reproducing the main MvP result and ablation studies:

3. Training and Evaluation

The evaluation result will be printed after every epoch, the best result can be found in the log.

3.1 CMU Panoptic dataset

We train and validate on the five selected camera views. We trained our models on 8 GPUs and batch_size=1 for each GPU, note the total iteration per epoch should be 3205, if not, please check your data.

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env run/train_3d.py --cfg configs/panoptic/best_model_config.yaml

Pre-trained models

Datasets AP25 AP25 AP25 AP25 MPJPE pth
Panoptic 92.3 96.6 97.5 97.7 15.8 here

3.1.1 Ablation Experiments

You can find several ablation experiment configs under ./configs/panoptic/, for example, removing RayConv:

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env run/train_3d.py --cfg configs/panoptic/ablation_remove_rayconv.yaml

3.2 Shelf/Campus datasets

As shelf/campus are very small dataset with incomplete annotation, we finetune pretrained MvP with pseudo ground truth 3D pose extracted with VoxelPose, we expect more accurate GT would help MvP achieve much higher performance.

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env run/train_3d.py --cfg configs/shelf/mvp_shelf.yaml

Pre-trained models

Datasets Actor 1 Actor 2 Actor 2 Average pth
Shelf 99.3 95.1 97.8 97.4 here
Campus 98.2 94.1 97.4 96.6 here

3.3 Human3.6M dataset

MvP also applies to the naive single-person setting, with dataset like Human3.6, to come

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env run/train_3d.py --cfg configs/h36m/mvp_h36m.yaml

4. Evaluation Only

To evaluate a trained model, pass the config and model pth:

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env run/validate_3d.py --cfg xxx --model_path xxx
