Introduction

English | 简体中文

MMPose is an open-source toolbox for pose estimation based on PyTorch. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project.

The main branch works with PyTorch 1.8+.

Major Features

Support diverse tasks

We support a wide spectrum of mainstream pose analysis tasks in current research community, including 2d multi-person human pose estimation, 2d hand pose estimation, 2d face landmark detection, 133 keypoint whole-body human pose estimation, 3d human mesh recovery, fashion landmark detection and animal pose estimation. See Demo for more information.
Higher efficiency and higher accuracy

MMPose implements multiple state-of-the-art (SOTA) deep learning models, including both top-down & bottom-up approaches. We achieve faster training speed and higher accuracy than other popular codebases, such as HRNet. See benchmark.md for more information.
Support for various datasets

The toolbox directly supports multiple popular and representative datasets, COCO, AIC, MPII, MPII-TRB, OCHuman etc. See dataset_zoo for more information.
Well designed, tested and documented

We decompose MMPose into different components and one can easily construct a customized pose estimation framework by combining different modules. We provide detailed documentation and API reference, as well as unittests.

What's New

We are glad to support 3 new datasets:
- (CVPR 2023) Human-Art
- (CVPR 2022) Animal Kingdom
- (AAAI 2020) LaPa

Welcome to projects of MMPose, where you can access to the latest features of MMPose, and share your ideas and codes with the community at once. Contribution to MMPose will be simple and smooth:
- Provide an easy and agile way to integrate algorithms, features and applications into MMPose
- Allow flexible code structure and style; only need a short code review process
- Build individual projects with full power of MMPose but not bound up with heavy frameworks
- Checkout new projects:
- Become a contributors and make MMPose greater. Start your journey from the example project

2023-07-04: MMPose v1.1.0 is officially released, with the main updates including:
- Support new datasets: Human-Art, Animal Kingdom and LaPa.
- Support new config type that is more user-friendly and flexible.
- Improve RTMPose with better performance.
- Migrate 3D pose estimation models on h36m.
- Inference speedup and webcam inference with all demo scripts.
Please refer to the release notes for more updates brought by MMPose v1.1.0!

0.x / 1.x Migration

MMPose v1.0.0 is a major update, including many API and config file changes. Currently, a part of the algorithms have been migrated to v1.0.0, and the remaining algorithms will be completed in subsequent versions. We will show the migration progress in the following list.
