Pose Estimation using Implicit Functions and Uncertainty in 3D

Human pose estimation in 3D is a large area within computer vision, with many application areas. A common approach is to first estimate the pose in 2D, resulting in a confidence heatmap, and then estimate the 3D pose using the most likely estimations in 2D. This may, however, cause problems in cases where pose estimates are more uncertain and the estimation of one point is far from the true position, for example when a limb is occluded. This thesis adapts the method Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) to 2D confidence heatmaps in order to create an implicit representation of the uncertainty in 3D, thus attempting to make use of as much information in 2D as possible. The adapted method was evaluated on the Human3.6M dataset, and results show that this method outperforms a simple triangulation baseline, especially when the estimation in 2D is far from the true pose.
