Abstract

Hand pose estimation is a fundamental task for many human-robot interaction-related applications. In this work, we proposed novel hand pose estimation models, which leverage two types of attention mechanisms: self-attention and channel attention. By incorporating a simple yet efficient Squeeze-and-excitation (SE) block into Res152-CondPose, our best method, SERes152-CondPoseSE, successfully models interdependencies between channels. It outperforms the baseline, Res152-CondPose, by an absolute 9.56% in mean Average Precision and 17.78% in Multiple Object Tracking Accuracy.
