Efficientgls-pose: enhancing human pose estimation efficiency and accuracy via global–local collaborative modeling
摘要
Human pose estimation, which involves predicting keypoint locations in images to model the human body structure, is widely used in tasks such as human-computer interaction and action recognition. Despite the strong performance of current high-accuracy models, their high computational complexity and large parameter sizes limit their real-time deployment on edge devices. To address this, we propose EfficientGLS-Pose, an efficient and lightweight global–local collaborative pose estimation framework designed to optimize multi-scale feature modeling. The framework includes a lightweight multi-scale feature extraction module (CSP-PMSFA), a global–local selective fusion pyramid (GLS-FPN), and a lightweight decoupled detection head (LADH-PoseHead). On the MSCOCO2017 and CrowdPose datasets, EfficientGLS-Pose-t achieves 59.5% COCO AP with only 1.9M parameters and 4.5 GFLOPs, while EfficientGLS-Pose-b achieves 62.8% and 68.3% on these datasets, respectively. These results demonstrate the potential of EfficientGLS-Pose for edge deployment, offering a balance between accuracy and efficiency.
