Deep Learning based human pose estimation with OpenCV

#artificialintelligence 

In today's post, we would only run the single person pose estimation using OpenCV. We would just be showing the confidence maps now to show the keypoints. In order to keep this post simple, we shall be showing how to connect multiple person keypoints using Pose affinity maps in a separate post next week. We would be using the pretrained model trained by the OpenPose team using Caffe on MPI dataset. This dataset has 15 keypoints to identify various points in human body. We also define the pose pairs which define the limbs. This is used to create the limbs which connect the keypoints and Pose affinity maps are used to predict the limbs.
