US patent US12718405

Pose parsers

Abstract

An apparatus is provided an apparatus to estimate poses of multiple objects from a two-dimensional image. The apparatus includes a communications interface to receive raw data from an external source. The raw data includes a representation of a first object and a second object. In addition, the apparatus includes a memory storage unit to store the raw data. The apparatus also includes a first neural network engine to detect parts of the first object and the second object and to generate an intermediate representation of the parts. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a second neural network engine to apply a transformer neural network to the intermediate representation to parse the parts into first object parts and second object parts to generate a first pose of the first object from the first object parts and to generate a second pose of the second object from the second object parts.
