“…In this paper, we concentrate on the problem of inferring articulated human pose from pre-processed silhouettes. Due to ambiguities of the 2D silhouette to 3D pose space mapping, previous silhouette based techniques, such as [2,5,6,7,9,10,11], involve complex and expensive schemes to disambiguate between the multi-valued silhouette and pose pairs. A major contributor to the expensive cost of human pose inference is the high dimensionality of the output space (composing of 19 joints or 57 degrees of freedom in our setting).…”
