Pose Estimation

Pose Estimation is a computer vision task where the goal is to detect the position and orientation of a person or an object. Usually, this is done by predicting the location of specific keypoints like hands, head, elbows, etc. in case of Human Pose Estimation.

A common benchmark for this task is MPII Human Pose
