PifPaf: Composite Fields for Human Pose Estimation

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Sven Kreiss, Lorenzo Bertoni

We propose a new bottom-up method for multi-person 2D human pose estimation that is particularly well suited for urban mobility such as self-driving cars and delivery robots. The new method, PifPaf, uses a Part Intensity Field (PIF) to localize body parts ...
