Abstract

In this paper we present a novel approach to markerless human motion capture that robustly integrates body part detections in multiple views. The proposed method fuses cues from multiple views to enhance the propagation and observation model of particle filtering methods aiming at human motion capture. We particularize our method to improve arm tracking in the publicly available IXMAS dataset. Our experiments show that the proposed method outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches.
