Abstract

With the rapid development of computer vision technology, deep learning-based human pose estimation has become a hot topic of research. This review outlines the progress made in this field in recent years, with a particular focus on the development of single-person and multi-person pose estimation. Single-person pose estimation primarily focuses on identifying and locating the joints of an individual, while multi-person pose estimation further extends to simultaneously recognizing the poses of multiple individuals. The article begins by introducing the basic concepts of pose estimation, then discusses in detail the application of deep learning models in single-person and multi-person pose estimation, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the existing modules. In addition, the limitations of current models are analyzed at the end of the paper, and possible future optimization directions are explored. The aim of this article is to provide researchers with a comprehensive perspective to understand current technological trends and potential innovation points.
