Real-Time Human Pose Estimation Using Machine Learning

Abstract

Human pose estimation is a pivotal domain within computer vision, underpinning applications from motion capture in cinematic production to sophisticated user interfaces in desktop devices. This research delineates the implementation of real-time human pose estimation within web browsers utilizing TensorFlow.js and the PoseNet model. PoseNet, an advanced machine learning model optimized for browser-based execution, facilitates precise pose detection sans specialized hardware. The primary aim of this study is to integrate PoseNet with TensorFlow.js, achieving efficient real-time pose estimation directly in the browser by leveraging JavaScript, thereby ensuring seamless user interaction and broad accessibility. A modular system architecture is designed, focusing on optimization strategies such as model quantization, asynchronous processing, and on-device computation to enhance performance and privacy preservation. In conclusion, this research establishes a robust framework for deploying PoseNet in web environments, underscoring its potential to revolutionize human-computer interaction within browser-based applications. Our findings contribute significantly to the field of computer vision and machine learning, offering insights into the practical deployment of pose estimation models on widely accessible platforms.
