Dense Human Pose Estimation In The Wild

Dense human pose estimation aims at mapping all human pixels of an RGB image to the 3D surface of the human body. DensePose-RCNN is implemented in the Detectron framework and is powered by Caffe2.

In this repository, we provide the code to train and evaluate DensePose-RCNN. We also provide notebooks to visualize the collected DensePose-COCO dataset and show the correspondences to the SMPL model.

!!! This project is no longer supported !!!

DensePose is now part of Detectron2 (https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2/tree/master/projects/DensePose). There you can find the most up to date architectures / models. If you think some feature is missing from there, please post an issue in Detectron2 DensePose.

Please find installation instructions for Caffe2 and DensePose in INSTALL.md, a document based on the Detectron installation instructions.

After installation, please see GETTING_STARTED.md for examples of inference and training and testing.

See notebooks/DensePose-COCO-Visualize.ipynb to visualize the DensePose-COCO annotations on the images:

See notebooks/DensePose-COCO-on-SMPL.ipynb to localize the DensePose-COCO annotations on the 3D template (SMPL) model:

See notebooks/DensePose-RCNN-Visualize-Results.ipynb to visualize the inferred DensePose-RCNN Results.
