Learning Decoupled Representations for Human Pose Forecasting

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Saeed Saadatnejad, Yuejiang Liu, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan

Human pose forecasting involves complex spatiotemporal interactions between body parts (e.g., arms, legs, spine). State-of-the-art approaches use Long Short-Term Memories (LSTMs) or Variational AutoEncoders (VAEs) to solve the problem. Yet, they do not eff ...

What Players do with the Ball: A Physically Constrained Interaction Modeling

Pascal Fua, Xinchao Wang, Andrii Maksai

Tracking the ball is critical for video-based analysis of team sports. However, it is difficult, especially in low resolution images, due to the small size of the ball, its speed that creates motion blur, and its often being occluded by players. In this pa ...
