4. Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Generative Approach : use explicit hand models to recover the hand pose - optimization, 현재 hypothesis 를 최적화 하기 위해 앞 결과에 의존 Existing Approaches Oikonomidis et al. ICCV2011 De La Gorce et al. PAMI2010 Hamer et al. ICCV2009 Motion capture Ballan et al. ECCV 2012 Xu and Cheng ICCV 2013 Generative Approach : learn a mapping from visual features to the target parameter space, such as joint labels or joint coordinates(i.e. hand poses), from a labelled training dataset. - classification, regression,.... - each frame independent, error recovery Wang et al.

5. achieved great success in human body pose estimation.  Efficient : real-time  Accurate : frame-basis, not rely on tracking  Require a large dataset to cover many poses  Train on synthetic, test on real data Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Discriminative Approach

6. Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Hierarchical Hybrid Forest STR forest: Qa – View point classification quality (Information gain) Viewpoint Classification: Q a Q apv = αQ a + (1-α)βQ P + (1-α)(1-β)Q V To evaluate the classification performance of all the viewpoint labels in dataset

7. Hierarchical Hybrid Forest Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB STR forest: Qa – View point classification quality (Information gain) Qp – Joint label classification quality (Information gain) Viewpoint Classification: Q a Finger joint Classification: Q P Q apv = αQ a + (1-α)βQ P + (1-α)(1-β)Q V To measure the performance of classifying individual patch

8. Hierarchical Hybrid Forest Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB STR forest: Qa – View point classification quality (Information gain) Qp – Joint label classification quality (Information gain) Qv – Compactness of voting vectors (Determinant of covariance trace) Viewpoint Classification: Q a Finger joint Classification: Q P Pose Regression: Q V Q apv = αQ a + (1-α)βQ P + (1-α)(1-β)Q V

Hierarchical Hybrid Forest Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB STR forest: Qa – View point classification quality (Information gain) Qp – Joint label classification quality (Information gain) Qv – Compactness of voting vectors (Determinant of covariance trace) (α,β) – Margin measures of view point labels and joint labels Viewpoint Classification: Q a Finger Joint Classification: Q P Pose Regression: Q V Q apv = αQ a + (1-α)βQ P + (1-α)(1-β)Q V Using all three terms together is slow.

Transductive Learning Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Training data D = {R l, R u, S}: labeled unlabeled Target space (Realistic data R) Realistic data R: »Captured from Primesense depth sensor »A small part of R, R l are labeled manually (unlabeled set R u ) Source space (Synthetic data S ) Synthetic data S: »Generated from an articulated hand model. All labeled.

Transductive Learning Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Training data D = {R l, R u, S}: Synthetic data S: »Generated from a articulated hand model, where |S| >> |R| Realistic data R: »Captured from Primesense depth sensor »A small part of R, R l are labeled manually (unlabeled set R u ) Source space (Synthetic data S ) Target space (Realistic data R)

12. Transductive Term Q t Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Training data D = {R l, R u, S}: Similar data-points in R l and S are paired(if separated by split function give penalty) Q t is the ratio of preserved association after a split Source space (Synthetic data S ) Target space (Realistic data R) Nearest neighbour

13. Semi-supervised Term Q u Su-A Kim 3 rd June 2014 @CVLAB Training data D = {R l, R u, S}: Similar data-points in R l and S are paired(if separated by split function give penalty) Q u evaluates the appearance similarities of all realistic patches R within a node Source space (Synthetic data S ) Target space (Realistic data R)
