Abstract:
Recovery of a 3D human pose from cameras has been the subject of intensive research in the last decade. Algorithms that can estimate the 3D pose from a single image have been developed. At the same time, many camera environments have an array of cameras. In this thesis, after aligning the poses obtained from single-view images using Procrustes Analysis, median ltering is utilized to eliminate outliers to nd nal reconstructed 3D body joint coordinates. Experiments performed on the CMU Panoptic, MPI INF 3DHP, and Human3.6M datasets demonstrate that the proposed system achieves accurate 3D body joint reconstructions. Additionally, we observe that camera selection is useful to decrease the system complexity while attaining the same level of reconstruction performance. We also derive that dynamic camera selection has a more signi cant impact on reconstruction accuracy as against static camera selection.
