Evaluation code for human pose estimation includes strict PCP, PDJ, and PCK.

Evaluation Scripts for Human Pose Estimation

This package includes three widely used evaluation protocal for the task of human pose estimation.

• Strict Percentage of Correct Parts (PCP): PCP measures the rate of correctly detected limbs: a limb is considered as correctly detected if the distances between detected limb endpoints and groundtruth limb endpoints are within half of the limb length ([Ferrari et al. CVPR’08]). We implement the strict version of PCP in this package.

• Percentage of Detected Joints (PDJ): PDJ measures the detection rate of joints, where a joint is considered as detected if the distance between the predicted joint and the ground-truth joint is less than a fraction of torso diameter. The torso diameter is defined as the distance between left shoulder and right hip of each ground-truth pose ([Sapp et al. CVPR’13]).
