Global Context for Convolutional Pose Machines

This repository contains training code for the paper Global Context for Convolutional Pose Machines. This work improves original convolutional pose machine architecture for artculated human pose estimation in both accuracy and inference speed. On the Look Into Person (LIP) test set this code achives 87.9% PCKh for a single model, the 2-stage version of this network runs with more than 160 frames per second on a GPU and ~20 frames per second on a CPU. The result can be reproduced using this repository.

Requirements

  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • Python 3.6
  • PyTorch 0.4.1 (should also work with 1.+, but not tested)

Prerequisites

  1. Download the Look Into Person dataset and unpack it to <LIP_HOME> folder.
  2. Install requirements pip install -r requirements.txt

Training

  1. Download pre-trained MobileNet v1 weights mobilenet_sgd_68.848.pth.tar from: https://github.com/marvis/pytorch-mobilenet (sgd option). If this doesn't work, download from Google Drive.
  2. Run in terminal:
python train.py --dataset-folder <LIP_HOME> --checkpoint-path mobilenet_sgd_68.848.pth.tar --from-mobilenet

Validation

  1. Run in terminal:
python val.py --dataset-folder <LIP_HOME> --checkpoint-path <CHECKPOINT>

[OPTIONAL] Pass --visualize key to see predicted keypoints results.

[OPTIONAL] Use --multiscale and set flip to True for better results.

The final number on the test set was obtained with addition of validation data into training.

Pre-trained model

Conversion to OpenVINO format:

  1. Convert PyTorch model to ONNX format, run script in terminal:
python scripts/convert_to_onnx.py --checkpoint-path <CHECKPOINT> --single-person`

It produces human-pose-estimation.onnx.

  1. Convert ONNX model to OpenVINO format with Model Optimizer, run in terminal:
python <OpenVINO_INSTALL_DIR>/deployment_tools/model_optimizer/mo.py --input_model human-pose-estimation.onnx --input data --mean_values data[128.0,128.0,128.0] --scale_values data[256] --output stage_1_output_1_heatmaps

This produces model human-pose-estimation.xml and weights human-pose-estimation.bin in single-precision floating-point format (FP32).
