Human Instance

Human instance understanding, encompassing tasks like detection, segmentation, and pose estimation, is a core area of computer vision research aiming to accurately identify and characterize individual humans within images and videos. Current research focuses on developing robust and efficient models, often employing transformer architectures and incorporating techniques like contrastive learning, prompt engineering, and multi-instance learning to handle challenges such as occlusion, variations in appearance, and limited labeled data. These advancements are crucial for applications ranging from autonomous driving and robotics to healthcare and human-computer interaction, improving the accuracy and reliability of systems that interact with or analyze human behavior.
