  • Publication number: 20230282031
    Abstract: A method for predicting the pose of an articulated object includes receiving spatial information for n joints of the articulated object. The spatial information for the n joints is passed to a machine learning model previously trained to receive spatial information for n+m joints as input, wherein m>=1. From the machine learning model, a pose prediction for the articulated object is received as output based at least on the spatial information for the n joints, and without spatial information for the m joints.

  • Patent number: 11600007
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods and apparatus for predicting subject motion using probabilistic models. One example method generally includes receiving training data comprising a set of subject pose trees. The set of subject pose trees comprises a plurality of subsets of subject pose trees associated with an image in a sequence of images, and each subject pose tree in the subset indicates a location along an axis of the image at which each of a plurality of joints of a subject is located. The received training data may be processed in a convolutional neural network to generate a trained probabilistic model for predicting joint distribution and subject motion based on density estimation. The trained probabilistic model may be deployed to a computer vision system and configured to generate a probability distribution for the location of each joint along the axis.
