System for Estimating a Pose of One or More Persons in a Scene

A system for estimating a pose of one or more persons in a scene includes a camera configured to capture one or more images of the scene; and a data processor configured to execute computer executable instructions for: (i) receiving the one or more images of the scene from the camera; (ii) extracting features from the one or more images of the scene for providing inputs to a keypoint subnet and a person detection subnet; (iii) generating one or more keypoints using the keypoint subnet; (iv) generating one or more person instances using the person detection subnet; (v) assigning the one or more keypoints to the one or more person instances by learning pose structures from image data; and (vi) determining one or more poses of the one or more persons in the scene using the assignment of the one or more keypoints to the one or more person instances.
