Abstract

Egocentric 3D human pose estimation remains challenging due to severe perspective distortion, limited body visibility, and complex camera motion inherent in first-person viewpoints. Existing methods typically rely on single-frame analysis or limited temporal fusion, which fails to effectively leverage the rich motion context available in egocentric videos. We introduce AG-EgoPose, a novel dual-stream framework that integrates short- and long-range motion context with fine-grained spatial cues for robust pose estimation from fisheye camera input. Our framework features two parallel streams: A spatial stream uses a weight-sharing ResNet-18 encoder-decoder to generate 2D joint heatmaps and corresponding joint-specific spatial feature tokens. Simultaneously, a temporal stream uses a ResNet-50 backbone to extract visual features, which are then processed by an action recognition backbone to capture the motion dynamics. These complementary representations are fused and refined in a transformer decoder with learnable joint tokens, which allows for the joint-level integration of spatial and temporal evidence while maintaining anatomical constraints. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that AG-EgoPose achieves state-of-the-art performance in both quantitative and qualitative metrics.
