## Multi-person Human Pose Estimation with HRNet in PyTorch

This is an unofficial implementation of the paper
 [*Deep High-Resolution Representation Learning for Human Pose Estimation*](https://arxiv.org/abs/1902.09212).  
The code is a simplified version of the [official code](https://github.com/leoxiaobin/deep-high-resolution-net.pytorch)
 with the ease-of-use in mind.

The code is fully compatible with the
 [official pre-trained weights](https://github.com/leoxiaobin/deep-high-resolution-net.pytorch) and the results are the
 same of the original implementation (only slight differences on gpu due to CUDA).
 It supports both Windows and Linux.


This repository provides:
- A simple ``HRNet`` implementation in PyTorch (>=1.0) - compatible with official weights (``pose_hrnet_*``).
- A simple class (``SimpleHRNet``) that loads the HRNet network for the human pose estimation, loads the pre-trained weights,
 and make human predictions on a single image or a batch of images.
- **NEW** Support for "SimpleBaselines" model based on ResNet - compatible with official weights (``pose_resnet_*``).
- **NEW** Support for multi-GPU inference.
- Multi-person support with
 [YOLOv3](https://github.com/eriklindernoren/PyTorch-YOLOv3/tree/47b7c912877ca69db35b8af3a38d6522681b3bb3) 
 (enabled by default).  
- A reference code that runs a live demo reading frames from a webcam or a video file.
- A relatively-simple code for training and testing the HRNet network.
- A specific script for training the network on the COCO dataset. 
 
#### Examples

<table>
 <tr>
  </td><td align="center"><img src="./gifs/gif-01+output.gif" width="100%" height="auto" /></td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
  <td align="center"><img src="./gifs/gif-02+output.gif" width="100%" height="auto" /></td>
 </tr>
</table>

#### Class usage

```
import cv2
from SimpleHRNet import SimpleHRNet

model = SimpleHRNet(48, 17, "./weights/pose_hrnet_w48_384x288.pth")
image = cv2.imread("image.png", cv2.IMREAD_COLOR)

joints = model.predict(image)
```

#### Running the live demo

From a connected camera:
```
python scripts/live-demo.py --camera_id 0
```
From a saved video:
```
python scripts/live-demo.py --filename video.mp4
```

For help:
```
python scripts/live-demo.py --help
```

#### Extracting keypoints:

From a saved video:
```
python scripts/extract-keypoints.py --filename video.mp4
```

For help:
```
python scripts/extract-keypoints.py --help
```

#### Running the training script

```
python scripts/train_coco.py
```

For help:
```
python scripts/train_coco.py --help
```

#### Installation instructions

- Clone the repository  
 ``git clone https://github.com/stefanopini/simple-HRNet.git``
- Install the required packages  
 ``pip install -r requirements.txt``
- Download the official pre-trained weights from 
[https://github.com/leoxiaobin/deep-high-resolution-net.pytorch](https://github.com/leoxiaobin/deep-high-resolution-net.pytorch)  
  Direct links ([official Drive folder](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hOTihvbyIxsm5ygDpbUuJ7O_tzv4oXjC), [official OneDrive folder](https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhIXJn_J-blW231MH2krnmLq5kkQ)):
  - COCO w48 384x288 (more accurate, but slower) - Used as default in `live_demo.py` and the other scripts  
    [pose_hrnet_w48_384x288.pth](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UoJhTtjHNByZSm96W3yFTfU5upJnsKiS)
  - COCO w32 256x192 (less accurate, but faster)

  Remember to set the parameters of SimpleHRNet accordingly.
- For multi-person support:
    - Get YOLOv3:
        - Clone [YOLOv3](https://github.com/eriklindernoren/PyTorch-YOLOv3/tree/47b7c912877ca69db35b8af3a38d6522681b3bb3) 
in the folder ``./models/detectors`` and change the folder name from ``PyTorch-YOLOv3`` to ``yolo``  
          OR
        - Update git submodules  
        ``git submodule update --init --recursive``
    - Install YOLOv3 required packages  
       ``pip install -r requirements.txt`` (from folder `./models/detectors/yolo`)
    - Download the pre-trained weights running the script ``download_weights.sh`` from the ``weights`` folder
- (Optional) Download the [COCO dataset](http://cocodataset.org/#download) and save it in ``./datasets/COCO``
- Your folders should look like:
    ```

    ```
- If you want to run the training script on COCO `scripts/train_coco.py`, you have to build the `nms` module first.  
  Please note that a linux machine with CUDA is currently required. 
  Built it with either: 
  - `cd misc; make` or
  - `cd misc/nms; python setup_linux.py build_ext --inplace`
