EM-POSE: 3D Human Pose Estimation from Sparse Electromagnetic Trackers

This repository contains the code to our paper published at ICCV 2021. For questions feel free to open an issue or send an e-mail to [email protected].

Installation

Code

This code was tested on Windows 10 with Python 3.7, PyTorch 1.6 and CUDA 10.1. To manage your environment Anaconda or Miniconda is recommended.

git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/em-pose.git
cd em-pose
conda create -n empose python=3.7
conda activate empose
pip install torch==1.6.0+cu101 torchvision==0.7.0+cu101 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py develop

The code is structured following the recommended python package layout. I.e. the actual source code is located under empose and grouped into sub-packages. Scripts that use the code (e.g. evaluation, training etc.) are located under scripts. More details on how to run evaluation and training scripts follow below. Before you can run these scripts you need to download some additional data and define a few environment variables as outlined next.

SMPL Model

This code uses the neutral SMPL-H model which is also used by AMASS. To download the model head over to the official MANO website and download the Extended SMPL+H model on the download page. Copy the contents of this model into a folder of your choice and set the environment variable $SMPL_MODELS. The code expects the neutral SMPL model to be located under $SMPL_MODELS/smplh_amass/neutral/model.npz.

EM-POSE Dataset

You can download our dataset from here (roughly 100 MB). Unzip the content into a directory of your choice and set the environment variable $EM_DATA_REAL to this directory.

The expected directory structure is:

$EM_DATA_REAL
   |- 0402_arms_fast_M_clean.npz
   |- 0402_arms_M_clean.npz
   |- ...
   |- 0402_offsets.npz
   |- hold_out
     |- ...
     |- 0715_walking_M_clean.npz

The initial 4 digits identify the participant. There are 5 participants with IDs 0402, 0526, 0612, 0714, 0715. Subject 0715 is the hold out subject.

Pre-Trained Models

You can download the pre-trained models from here (roughly 500 MB). Unzip the content into a directory of your choice and set the environment variable $EM_EXPERIMENTS to this directory.

The expected directory structure is

$EM_EXPERIMENTS
   |- 1614785570-IEF-2x512-N4-r0.01-ws32-lr0.001-grad-n12-pos-ori
      |- logs
      |- cmd.txt
      |- config.json
      |- model.pth
   |- ...
   |- LICENSE.txt

The first 10 digits of each folder name identify the model. The rest is an autogenerated summary string. Each model folder contains tensorboard log files (logs), a configuration file config.json specifying the parameter choices, a cmd.txt file containing the actual command used to train the model and the model's weights model.pth.

We provide the following pre-trained models (name according to the naming convention in our paper).

Model Name	N Sensors	Model ID
ResNet	6	1614876822
ResNet	12	1614876778
BiRNN	6	1614861176
BiRNN	12	1614855569
LGD	6	1615631965
LGD	12	1614785570
LGD RNN	6	1615631737
LGD RNN	12	1615200973

Here the LGD entry refers to the model that does not use an RNN which we refer to in the ablation studies as Ours no RNN (Table 3 and 7).

AMASS and 3DPW (Optional)

You do not need to download AMASS or 3DPW for the evaluation code to work. You only need them if you want to train a model from scratch. To download the datasets please visit the official AMASS website and the official 3DPW website. Set the environment variable $EM_DATA_SYNTH to a directory of your choice and extract both AMASS and 3DPW into this directory, such that the structure looks like this:

$EM_DATA_SYNTH
   |- amass
      |- ACCAD
      |- BioMotionLab_NTroje
      |- ...
   |- 3dpw
      |- test
      |- train
      |- ...

Evaluation

To evaluate a pre-trained models on the EM-POSE dataset, run

python scripts/evaluate_real.py --model_id

For example to evaluate the model LGD RNN 6, execute

python scripts/evaluate_real.py --model_id 1615631737

You can replace model ID with any of the available pre-trained model IDs listed above. Note that this command evaluates the model on participants 1-4 (i.e. 0402, 0526, 0612, and 0714). To evaluate on the hold out participant 0715, run

python scripts/evaluate_real.py --model_id 1615631737 --cross_subject

This should re-create the entries of Table 4 in the paper. Please note however that we have spotted an error in the pre-processing of the data of participant 0715. The error is fixed in the released version of the data. Running our models on the fixed data produces the following results (these are the results that you should get with the above command as well).

Model	MPJPE [mm]	PA-MPJPE [mm]	MPJAE [deg]
BiRNN 6	37.2 +/- 26.7	33.8 +/- 19.2	15.0 +/- 7.8
Ours (LGD RNN) 6	32.0 +/- 25.0	29.5 +/- 17.7	13.6 +/- 7.3
BiRNN 12	45.9 +/- 34.3	40.2 +/- 22.7	15.1 +/- 8.0
Ours (LGD RNN) 12	31.2 +/- 25.7	24.5 +/- 18.0	12.3 +/- 7.2

We will release an errata to update the paper soon.

Training

To train our models from scratch you must first preprocess AMASS and 3DPW. We are using AMASS as the training dataset and 3DPW for validation. The preprocessing script resamples all sequences to 60 fps and stores them in LMDB format. To do so simply run

python scripts/preprocess_amass_3dpw.py

This script assumes the data has been downloaded and stored following the structure outlined in the installation section above. When the script has successfully completed, you should see two new directories $EM_DATA_SYNTH/amass_lmdb and $EM_DATA_SYNTH/3dpw_lmdb.

If that is the case you can run a training from scratch using the script scripts/train.py. This script accepts all configuration parameters that are listed in the class Configuration in file configuration.py. Logs and model weights will be stored in a new directory under $EM_EXPERIMENTS.

To re-train one of our models, use the configuration parameters as specified in the file cmd.txt stored in the respective model directory. For example, to re-train LGD RNN 6 use

python train.py --bs_train 12 --bs_eval 12 --m_type ief --m_hidden_size 512 --m_num_layers 2 --m_num_iterations 2 --window_size 32 --use_marker_pos --use_marker_ori --use_real_offsets --offset_noise_level 0 --m_average_shape --m_use_gradient --eval_every 700 --n_epochs 50 --m_reprojection_loss_weight 0.01 --eval_window_size 256 --m_rnn_init --m_rnn_hidden_size 512 --lr 0.0005 --n_markers 6 --m_pose_loss_weight 10.0 --m_fk_loss 0.1
