Training state-of-the-art models for human pose estimation in videos requires datasets with annotations that are really hard and expensive to obtain.
... introduce PoseBERT, a transformer module that is fully trained on 3D Motion Capture (MoCap) data via masked modeling.
... can be plugged on top of any image-based model to transform it in a video-based model leveraging temporal information.
... showcase variants of PoseBERT with different inputs varying from 3D skeleton keypoints to rotations of a 3D parametric model for either the full body (SMPL) or just the hands (MANO).
... PoseBERT ... task agnostic ... can be applied to several tasks such as pose refinement, future pose prediction or motion completion without finetuning.
... adding PoseBERT on top of various state-of-the-art pose estimation methods consistently improves their performances, while its low computational cost allows us to use it in a real-time demo for smoothly animating a robotic hand via a webcam ...
