Introduction
This is the official repo of CVPR2019 paper CrowdPose: Efficient Crowded Scenes Pose Estimation and A New Benchmark. Our proposed method surpasses the state-of-the-art methods on CrowdPose dataset by 5 mAP and results on MSCOCO dataset demonstrate the generalization ability of our method (comparatively 0.8 mAP higher). Images in our proposed CrowdPose dataset have a uniform distribution of Crowd Index among [0, 1].
Code
We provide evaluation tools for CrowdPose dataset. Our evaluation tools is developed based on @cocodataset/cocoapi. The source code of our model has been integrated into AlphaPose.
