News

• [2021/1/12] A new version of UDP paper is provided with more clear and more detailed methodology explaination, extra experimental results, and more discoveries. ArXiv.
• [2020/12/14] AID for mmpose is provided in HuangJunJie2017/mmpose alone with pretrained models in BaiduDisk(dsa9).
• [2020/11/23] UDP for mmpose is provided in HuangJunJie2017/mmpose alone with pretrained models in BaiduDisk(dsa9). Examples for both top-down paradigm and bottom-up paradigm are provided in this branch.
• [2020/11/04] We propose UDPv1 with LOSS.KPD=3.5. The performance of UDPv1 is superior when compared with UDP in coco dataset.
• [2020/10/26] We get a better tradeoff between speed and precision by applying UDP to the state-of-the-art Bottom-Up methods.

Note:

• ori : Result from original HigherHrnet
• mmpose : Pretrained models from mmpose
• P2I : PROJECT2IMAGE
• we use mmpose for codebase
• the configurations of the baseline are HRNet-W32-512x512-batch16-lr0.001
• Speed is tested with dist_test in mmpose codebase and 8 Gpus + 16 batchsize
